DEBENTURE PLAN NOW UP IN HOUSE
 FUR APPROVAL
HOUSE STILL BUSY WITH THE FARM RELIEF MEASURE:
 WORK CONTINUES

WASHINGTON, May r, P- The senate's incorporation of the export debenture plan for farm relief was put up to the house with unusual procedure under the acting special rule to submit the measure over which the two chambers are in disagreement.
 Only a majority vote in the house is needed to prevent a long controversy between the two branches and their right to ini- tiate debenture legislation.
 If the house votes to accept the measure the leaders are con- fident conference will easily eliminate the controversial clause.
 Another supplementary farm measure is ready for the consid- eration of the house.
 After the senate's action in pass ing the bill of Senator Walsh for the establishment of a protein testing laboratory in each of the wheat growing states, the house is expected to follow suit.
 The house is still busy with farm relief and the committee is continuing their work at the re- quest of the amendment repre- sentatives who are dissatisfied with the rate increase.

 Candy is an indispensable part of a well balanced diet for children. de- clared MT. Bunte. Tt can be used as a dessert in place of less wholesome sweets. A little candy in between meals is helpful because 1t revives the child's body fatigued by perpetual motion. Parents may give pure candy

These were thus named because the
sailormen of another day regarded
them as so short that even a dog

Wave Speed Difference
Gives Strange Effects

Sound travels through the air at
the rate of one mile in five seconds.
Ether waves have a velocity a mil
lion times greater. This difference
causes some strange effects.
Big Ben, London's famous clock.
can be heard to strike four miles
from Westminster. Owing to the diff
ference between the speed of radio
and air waves, in many parts of Lon
don 1t may be heard to strike 80
times when the II o'clock signal is
being broadcast from Daventry-
through loud speaker and through
the air. There is an interval of four
and one-half seconds between each
stroke Of Big Ben.
At one mile, the first two strokes
by radio would be heard before the
first by sound waves, and after the
last by radio two would arrive
through the air. At four miles, FIVE
would be heard by radio before the
first by sound waves, and the last by
radio would be followed by five car
ried by air waves.

Profit System Ensures
Consumer Fair Chance

II your goods are acceptable, or
your services useful. you will receive
a profit. If, on the other hand. your
fellow creatures decide (wisely or un-
wisely, it makes no matter) that they
do not want your goods, or that they
will get on better without your serv-
ices, then you will make loss. The
proft-making system is the only one
under which the consumer can be per-
fectly sure of obtaining the article he
wants-any other scheme can only
mean that he will have forced upon
him the article which somebody else
things he ought to want
Working for profit on an indlyid-
ualistic system also ensures that the
people who receive the goods are the
same as those who pay for them-a
very important point. Based upon the
interests of the consumer, II is the
only system under which the con-
sumner can ever stand a chance. We
can make no money, we can do no
good, unless we can persuade others
to accept our services at the value
that we and they Jointly place upon
them.-Ernest ]. P. Bonn, "The Con-
