A Turn?
Boston News BureauD

Is there in evidence, after protracted and pronounced recession. a definite upturn in com modty prices? If so, it would be heartenng news for myriads of producers the world around and it might be a spark of stimulus to much other bus- ness sentiment.
 Thus the Irving Fisher commodity index which above 68 cents-a stability that in itself rela- lively encouraging gained further the past week to 68i2 cents. That conversely reduced the pur- chasing value of the dollar from about 147 to 146 cents
 At the moment the appear fairly bright for further advance this week, at least far as our major crcps concerned. After their long price adversties wheat and cotton have shown smart advances. December wheat is up less than 13 cents bushel from it's low of 443s cents on October 5-which incidentally the industrial average low,-and cotton is up cent and quarter a pound from it's close on October g. Wheat gained some two cents yesterday and predictions of at least 75 cents a bushel have been rife. West and South are feeling more cheerful.
 Thus there has been increment of about s170- carryover and of about sl5O0OO0OO in that of wheat since the early October low price levels.
 In the early spring of 1881 some five weeks of relative stability in the commodity index led to false hopes of permanence From that level of around 76 there the further steady recession to around 68 this month-a long way downward from the 98 of July. 1929-and conversely march upward meanwhile in the dollars wholesale buying power from 101 to AT cents. Was that the historic extreme?

A REPUBLICAN CHANCE.

Many Republicans are predicting that for political reasons if for no other the next Congress with the consent if not at the suggestion of President Hoover will modify the Volstead Act so as to provide for the legal manufacture and sale of beer and wine It is believed by many well informed people that the only chance of the Republicans for success in the next election lies in divorce from Prohioi- ton
 Those who hold to this view point to outstand- ing Republican successes in recent elections where their candidates have been wet The late Senator Morrow was elected in New Jersey by 100000 ma- iority He was wet and was nominated after a hard fight over the Prohibition issue The vets who vent into the Republican primary to aid him in his battle against the drys staid with him in the general election that followed
 more recent similar experience was the Re publican victory in Cincinnati The vets nominated MT Holster for Congress in the Republican primary election after a campaign that was so hot that 1t drew most of the vets into it. Mir. Honister was elected in November by majority larger than was ever cast for his ilustrious predecessor the late Speaker Longworth notwithstanding the trend of elections in Ohio and elsewhere Democratic The vets who the nomination for MT Hollister re- fused to go back on him in the election
 There was a like experience in the First District of Washington last year when Ralph G. Horr was elected to Congress over very able and popular Democrat because wet voters who had helped him to win over a dry in the primary refused to abandon him in the election.
 In all these instances wet Republicans defeated wet Democrats a reaction from brilliant wet victories in Republican primaries.
 It is conceivable that if the vets should com init the Republican Party to volstead Act modi- fication it would so please majority of the voters that they would vote for that party in the ensuing election

ALASKAN TRIPS 10 RE AWARDED
 TO BOY SCOUTS
lransportation Companies Combine to Offer Trips
 to Boy Scouts

The three Boy Scouts in the United States who are most skilled With their pocket knives will be taken on a long and free trip e. adventure to Alaska next summer. The pocket knives, in the mean time, must be used in whiting out totem poles and the bes. work draws the prizes.
 The United States Department Of the Interior through the Alaska Railroad, which is a constituent part thereof, The Alaska Steamship Company and the Northern Pacific Railway Company are making this big project possible. Secretary Will bur has given the project the Governments formal endorsement. The contest is open to members of every Boy Scout troop in the Ma ton. It is not only the intention to stimulate the interest of the Scouts in Indian Lore, but also to provide recognition of the char acter-building and educational features Of the Scout Program by developing every outstanding Scouts character, service and skill in the form of three awards
 First-A trip from the home city of the Scout to interior Alaska and return-including several days to be spent in Mt. Mckinley National Park. This trip will occupy ap- proximately 19 days from Seattle, the point of departure, to interior Alaska and return, in addition to the time required in travelling from the home city of the Scout to Se- attle and return.
 Second-A cruise by steamship from Seattle to Seward, Alaska, and return-occupying twelve days.

from Seattle to Skagway, Alaska, and return-occupying ten days.
 Expenses on these trips will be paid by the Alaska Railroad and it's Associates.
 For these awards it is desired to secure the three Scouts who will be ablest to pass along the bene- fits of such a trip to their brother Scouts, and who will furnish the maximum inspiration and informa- ton to Scouting throughout the country. Besides the evidence Of Scout service, it has been decided to make one of the requirements fer the winning of this award the making of a piece of handiwork, namely, a miniature totem pole, to be carved and colored by the Scouts.
 To develop such a project it would be necessary for the Scout to study and secure a Fundamental understanding of the ideals that motivate Indian art as well as knowledge of the handicraft meth ods by which it was carried out. Such a study conducted by hun dreds of Scouts in all parts of the country should result in the devel- opment of their own lives. in the further enrichment of the Scout Program in the Troops with which these boys are connected.
 In other words. the basic idea of the plan is to stimulate on the part of all Scouts a knowledge of the Indian, his tradition, his life and his ideals so that the Scout Pro- gram may be extended and en- riched thereby

WHAT IS A CLOUDBURST?

Rain falls during rainfall, but clouds do not burst when there is "cloudburst" United States Weather Bureau experts say that sometimes strongly upward currents of air hold raindrops up from underneath and prevent them from promptly reach ing the ground. Then the drops gather in much larger quantities than they usually do When the upward air currents lessen, or so much water ac- Cumulates that the air not support it, there occurs the deluge of rain that call cloud burst
