NEW YEARS GREETINGS

Why not start the New Year by paying that long overdue bill you owe your doctor? And by sc doing make 1t possible for him, in turn. N to meet his own obliga- tions? You have confidence in his judgement; you acknowledge his skill; there are times when his services are indispensable. You trust him as you trust no one else, with your life itself and with the lives of those most dear to you at times when suffering and anxiety have warped your own judgement and left you helpless. Yet are you sure you have given him any substantial reason for believing he can trust you? From the first great mo- ment of birth to that last tragic hour when death closes the scene you can depend on him, and often on him alone for aid, sympathy, understanding. Why not make a new resolve to remember what you owe him, along with your indebtedness to others who are, perhaps, more insistent in their demands?

Runaway Boys
Held At Jail

Ralph "Tailspin" Griffith, 10,
and Albert Cowell, IA, Los Angeles
school boys, were arrested yester-
day afternoon at Holtville and plac-
ed in the juvenile ward where they
are awaiting the arrival of trans
portation money to return home.
Griffith g mother wired him this
morning in care of the sheriff, stat
ing that if the boy would finish
school this year she would allow him
to 60 to work, as he desired, but
that if he would not promise to fin
ish the term he would have to get
out of his present predicament and
figure how to get home the best way
he could.

HOUSE ADOPTS
AMENDMENTS TO
FARM MEASURE
Leaders Hope To Recess
Shortly After First Of
Month.
BY PAUL r. MALLON
United Press Staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, May 81. UH -
Congress opened the seventh week of
its farm relief and tariff session to-
day, little weary of It's job, and
prepared to recess before the hot
weather sets in.
Having adopted some 40 of the 81
farm bloc amendments to the tariff
bill, the house went to work on the
remaining so planning to write them
in the bill by 3 p. m. tomorrow when
the measure viii be passed and sent
to the senate.
The senate resumed consideration
of the disputed census and reap
portionment bill upon which vote
is expected tomorrow. The immedi-
ate row is over the Saekett amend
ment proposing to exclude aliens
from any calculations in revision Of
popular representation in the house.
Farm conferees of the house and
senate were in a deadlock recess
awaiting, they said, for "the psy-
chology" of their dispute over the
debenture provision to develop. They
hope this PSYCHOLOGY would prepare
the way for a meeting about We'd
nesday when the disputed debenture
item may be eliminated from the
administration farm board bill. The
elimination would clear the way for
passage of the measure.
House Clears Work
The house will have cleared its
program of all immediate measures
when it passes the tariff bill but the
senate has some other pressing mat
ters to handle before il tackles the
debenture provision again in prepara-
tion for the summer recess.
A poll showed 55 to % in favor
Of abolishing or modifying the old
secrecy rule of the senate and
Senator Jones of Washington. assis-
tant Republican leader, is preparing
to bring the issue up as soon as the
reapportionment bill is out of the
way. Leaders say it will require
only two days now to change this
rule which has been the object of
dispute in congress for so years.
They say the change in sentiment
has been wrought by publication of
two recent secret roll calls by the
United Press, and the knowledge the
rule cannot be enforced.
