Fostering Mr., Hoover

GONE people think that is about
- all life should mean to anybody
or anything.
Just now they are Fostering Mr..
Hoover for a statement indorsing
the blue Sunday at Washington.
Though unconsciously, they are
putting the proposition on bought
and paid for basis, implying that
this is an opportunity for the Presi-
dent to show proper appreciation of
the way in which they supported
him.
Such an attitude is not peculiar.
Some supporters want place at
the pie counter, others would be con-
tent with a blue law"

Sound Judgment

A REPRESENTATIVE of the
"a Ford Motor Car Company ad-
vocates putting autos on the free
list, while the Automotive Chamber
of Commerce would be satisfied tc
see the present duty of Is per cent
reduced to 10.
That shows sound judgment.
The American auto industry has
grown until nine out of every ten
cars throughout the world are made
in this country.
Such an obvious monopoly needs
no protection, but it does need for
eign markets.
The best way to keep those mar
kets is to refrain from doing any,
thing that might induce other gov
ernmentS to set up trade barriers.

WingIeSS Chickens

DUT why worry about such de-
- tails in this age of efficiency?
What problem do they present
compared to the production of wing
less chickens which an Omaha
poultry sharp claims to have
achieved?
The wingless chicken, understand
Is nothing short of blessing to
business. She can lay more eggs be-
cause she wastes less energy she'd
ding feathers and flying around.
Still, and regardless Of how man
may benefit one can not help she'd
ding a tear for that poor chicken.
What could life possibly mean to
her, but just one egg after another?

How to watt the proper odor all

an investigation of alleged fascist
propaganda and improper activities
in the United States, the United

An article written recently by
Marcus Duff1eld for Harper's mag

ment was working through fascist
organizations in the United States
to interfere with Americanization of
Italian residents in this country.
Among the specific charges was
one that Giuseppe Brancucci. an
Italian consular agent in Yonkers,
". Y, had objected to the manner in
which night class was being
taught in a public school and had
obtained dismissal of the teacher.
Duf1eld said Brancuccio had visit
ed the class and questioned the
children regarding Prime Minister
Mussolini and the Italian govern
ment Finding them deficient in
knowledge on these subjects, the
Italian agent is alleged to have
cause the teachers di5massaI when
she refused to use in her school
work a pamphlet furnished by
