Generally speaking, we are pros
porous, those willing to work get
along. But Mr.. Hildegar Wywias
did not find it so. She struggled
for FIVE years with four children,
feeding clothing, paying rent,
washing, cooking and working as
a garment presser" for SIS a
week. She scorched one expensive
dress. That took a weeks pay.
Each month the rent took a weeks
pay.
Prosperous America was not
prosperous enough for Mrs. Wy
wias. She broke the gas meter,
opened all the jets, then kHelt by
the bed where her 6ve-year-old son
was sleeping, her three little girls
asleep nearby.
All were dead, when found, with
TO more rent or food bills to pay.
There is still room at the BOT
TOM for those that would make
conditions better.
Birth control and publishing in
formation about It are approved by
Britain's National Council of
Public Morals"
theoretically women should
have the right to decide how many
children they will have.
But it is we'll that understanding
of birth control has been post
poned. It might have prevented
the arrival of Napoleon and Car
lyle, and surely would have pre-
vented the arrival of Caruso, 3
nineteenth child.
Mrs. PEABODY, head of the
Womer's Committee for Law En-
forcement, says "ten million wo-
men are not only talking and pray
ing, but working to retain prohibit
ticn, and see that it is enforced"
They need not work or pray to
keep prohibition in the Constitu-
ton; nothing can gel it out

room for much working aud pray

It is just around the corner. li;sia more than five weeks away, with all its i'm memorial sentiment and practical demands. To day is not too carly to make beginning anu certainly by Thanksgiving ones plans for gifts should be well in the process of complctioa
 Of course about this time every year news papers and merchants begin to urge early shlp- ping There are several reasons which justify the appeal. From humanitarian standpoint because of rushed saespeople, deliverymen, postal clerks and others who combine to render to you an efficient shopping and delivery service, mak- ing your task as light as possible. Perhaps o' equal importance is this; When one has timt one is better able to make more intelligent sc lection of the things desired for the holiday celebration This cannot be done in last minute rush to buy and get out on an eleventh hour mail
 If the public should arrange to do it's buying beginning now. say immediately after Thanks giving it would enable the merchants to spreat sales loads and everyobdy walld be satisfied and much happier Too. there would be fewe disappointments in connection with lost gifts O love and remembrance sent to distant friends And engaging in such program~of shopping means less of discomfort and weariness to thos who serve you and assures an equaiized trad from which everyone, buyer seller, deliveryma and all, will profit in way or another

The consumer. however. is tardy in accept. ing the local product Bakeries and restaurants report hesitancy upon the part of their patrons who seem to think that, since the wheat is grown Housewives are said to be afraid of Tanana wheat and hold to carly suppositon that it offers q ncultes in baking.
 Until these fears the part of the public art dspe,led the local Industry make no great strides The Tanana Valley Flour Milling Cor poraton, community enterprise, recognizes the difficulty it faces, and is making every effort to educate the public into accepting it's product on a merit basis The corporation faces a situation that threatens it's existence. for if the peopf of Fairbanks cling erroneous impression and contnue to refuse the flour d trial, the enterprise must go out of existence.

ENFORCING PROHIBITION.

Because he had pint of gin in his home Fred Palm 29-year-old resident of Lansing Mich. was sentenced to life Imprisonment at hard labor in the Michigan State Prison, says United Press despatch of recent date. His was the first case in which violation of the liquor law was construed a felony under Michigan s new code which went into effect early last September.
 The code,- modelled the New York law, makes life sentence mandatory after fourth conviction of felony. Though Palm had given police authorities plenty of trouble, he was never regarded as a desperate criminal. Most of his ofenses against the Prohibition Act.
 Palm is married Thus the punishment, dealt to him under an unnatural law, is meted not only to him but his family That. of course, is true of most punishment inflicted on criminals. However, sentences not much designed to punish the guilty as to protect society against the vicious. In this instance there seems to have been no damage done to his fellow men by Palm. His act could by nos stretch of the imagination be constructed 10 injure any save himself To deprive man of his Freedom Tor she remainder of his life. to condemn him to a living death for so trivial offense is travesty on justice whatever may be the legal aspect of the matter

The Fundamentals of Flood Control.
New York World.l

As a new session of Congress approaches plans of flood relief multiply. committed of 100 business men from St Louis has just made a tour of the flooded areas above Memphis and has formulated the Missouri plan, calling for an outlay of $1 ,000, ,000O00 to be raised by bond issues over a period of ten years The Chamber or Commerce of the United States has also been studying the problem at first hand and today will send out to it's members referendum ballot on four proposas--namely that the Government assume the entire cost; that it assume the sole responsibility of locating building and maintain ing the works; that it provide adequate funds for continuous efficient work, and that all food control legislation and administration be dealt with wholly on it's merits and entirely apart from any other undertaking.
 These are sane proposals and every o them should be adopted by Congress basis for it's Legislation It is going to be difficult to prevent flood d-contro legislation from becom ing complicated with other measures, few Con gressmen are already matching schemes to tit their pet local projects to hood-control bill and constant vigilance will be needed to prevent the exploitation of the Mississippi disaster by petty log rolling tactics
 It may also prove difficult to convince some members of Congress that flood relief is strictl, a Federal problem. No less an authority on sucf matters than President Morgan of Antioch Col llege argues in the Atlantic Monthly that the Ma ton should not bear the whole cost of com munitys misfortunes. As general principle this
 view is correct But President Morgan overlook
 the fact that the communities damaged by ths
 recent flood have been bearing substantial DOT
 tion of the cost of protection for decades, ant
 that all which many of them have to show fol
 their outlay is the unpaid portion of the debt
 they have incurred for this purpose. The pro
 posal before the Chamber is sound The hoot
 menace is due to conditions over which l0ca
 communties have control, and the obligation | to meet it is national

such thing happens that candidate has and is not able to get majority of votes, 1t would lset precedent if that power was exerted to decide the nominations.
 It does not seem likely that the Republican party would pick Senator Curtis 10 oppose Gov. AT Smith, whose sweeping victory in the recent New York election has added materially to his prestige. If the popular and capable New York Governor should be the Democratic nominee, which to be almost conceded, to nonl- mate the Kansan would, so political leaders say, invite disaster ill the Eastern tier of States But should current of the political tide swing Democratic sentiment away from Gov Smith, Re publican strength might be gained in the Middle West and West without the danger of aenating it in the East. Apparently as a compromfse can didate Senator Curtis has potentiaiities.
