Weber's. This figure was reached on
both Sunday and Tuesday mornings,

DISTRIBUTION OF SHOES
IN STATE STARTS TODAY
Five Hundred Pairs to be Sent
Here by Baltimore PhiIanthrOpist

Rich man, poor man, beggar man
and eX-thief form one of the strong
est big parades to be found in Balti-
more, or elsewhere these days. They
meet daily in a small office at 213
East Fayette Street.
In the office sits Santa Claus in
mufti dispensing half his private in
come to anyone who can prove a just
claim upon charity. The claims al
lowed are counted in thousands.
Shoes For Children
The donor, Raymond A. Sinskey,
has been known to the general pub
lie almost entirely through his do
nation of $4,000 pairs of shoes and
stockings to school children last
Christmas and his recent announce
ment of gift of $4,000 pairs this
year. Distribution is to start today,
half going to children in Baltimore
and half being divided between
youngsters living in the Maryland
counties. Garrett county is to receive
500 pairs.
This generosity, however, is but
one of many, many gifts, correspond
ence regarding which fills substan-
tial filing cabinets with letters from
all sort and conditions of men. Since
February Sinskey has given away
500 baskets of food each week, while
1000 baskets were given away by
him last Christmas and an equal
number January Is.
Sinskey's Jewish affiliations do not
in any degree limit the object of his
aid, which is often as not given
through Catholic and Protestant
churches or non-sectarian agencies.
Institutions, including one of the old
est private schools for girls in Mary
land, as we'll as individuals have been
largely aided by him.
The generous nature of this Balti-
morean is at least partly inherited
from his mother, who many years
ago endowed a home for orphans in
East Baltimore. His own story is
unique.
Sleeps On Bench
Ten years ago, after graduation
from the University of Maryland,
and following brief but highly
profitable experience in Wall Street,
Sinskey's resources were suddenly
wiped out and after vacating his
room he checked his possessions at
the railroad station and walked the
streets.
One night he spent partly on a
New York park bench, from which
he was twice ordered off by police
man, and partly on the steps of the
subway. The next morning, he said:
walking up Fifth avenue l de-
cided l had rather sacrifice my pride
than my honor and sent a collect
telegram asking for enough money
to take me home to Baltimore"
Resolve Of Life Time
81 had nothing to eat until the
answer came.
"On the way back I made up my
mind if l ever made money, l would
devote myself to philanthropy and
give half of it away, which is what
l am doing now"

The arbitrary raise of four cents in the price of gasoline is the
btterest pill Wolf Point has had to swallow n a long time No reason
has been announced for boosting a price already too high compared to.
the price in neighborng states.
The managers of the various local oil stations have no more to do
with this high-handed action than the pumps they operate. The fact
is, no one in the state. not even the public service commission has al
vestage OF authority or control over prices of petroleum products sold
here. We get our orders from an unseen power, who at any moment
they wish can put their hands in the pockets of gasoline consumers
and take what they want. Four cents added to the price of gas is not
vitality serious for those who drive cars for pleasure or to save time.
But coming at the present critical time this outrageous price order
is just about the last straw to those who are compelled to depend on
gasoline for industrial power and transportation.
In the absence of any valid reason being advanced for this new
and legalzed method Of racketeering, it has to be classed a a polht
can maneuver designed to further stir up bitterness and discomfort, and
drive reason from the public mind. 1t is indeed a n opportune time to
show up officials now in office and infame the electorate with a
angry desire for a change, regardless of what it brings
This latest application of the screws, by big business, to the purses
of the helpless public. is typical of the many things that have been
going on this great republic, which are directly responsible for the
condition of economic chaos and industrial revolt that now exists. But
there is always an answer, always a hereafter.

The story is told of a dishonest worker. He and his family
were roofless. whereupon a certain good Samaritan decided to
surprise this poor man with a comfortable home. So, without
telling his purpose, he hired this worker who was a builder, at a
fair wage to build a house on a sunny hill, and then went on
business to a faraway country. The builder was left at work
with no Waterman but his own honor. "Ha," said he in his
heart q can skimp the material and scamp the work" So he
went on spinning out the time, putting in poor service, poor nails,
poor tfmbers.
When the good Samaritan returned, the builder said: "That's
a fine house built on the hill" Good" was the reply. go
move your folks into it at once for the house is yours. Here is
the deed" The builder was thunderstruck. He realized that, in
stead of cheating his friend, he had been industrially cheating
himself when he did not know it was his own house he was
building.
That Illustration reminds us wildly of the predicament our
voters and taxpayers find themselves in today. They suffer
under a burden that has become almost unbearable. They wall
loud and long about the burdens Of taxation, wasteful and fool
ish governmental expenditure, graft and cheap politics. But are
they not criticising the house they built themselves?
Back a short time ago when most OF US had more money
than brains and when we were drunk on the power of the al
mighty dollar, we openly voted for and supported candidates of
a spendthrfft character, knowing when we did so that we were
Slipping in shoddy materials in the governmental structure
w were building. We knew that government, justly and eco
nomically administered, required our sober thought and honest
action, vet we dismissed the thought with the snap of a finger
and went right along with our own selfish pursuit of the dollar.
We didn't have time to vote inteIigently.
Now we are reaping the rewards. OF course the house we
built leaks and cracks and threatens to collapse. But we can't
blame it on the other fellow. We built it ourselves.
Let us profit by our lesson and build the next house as it
should be. Our democratic government isn't at fault. The fault
lies with us voters who built it. We have been cheating our
~selves-Guide, Batesville, Arkansas.

FARM BOARD REORGANIZATION

The Federal Farm board is being reorganized along the lines
contemplated in the declaration of policy set out by Congress
when the Marketing Act was placed on the statute books.
The purpose of Congress in passing this Act was to
promote the effective merchandising of agricultural COM
modities in interstate and foreign commerce so that the industry
of agriculture will be placed on a basis of economic equality with
other industries, + = = by encouraging the organization of pro
ducers into effective associations or corporations x x = by pro
noting the establishment and financing of the farm marketing
system of producer-owned and producer-controlled cooperative
associations and other agencies"
The reorganization proposes to:
!. Advise and assist farmers in forming and operating their
own cooperative associations.
Q Collect and distribute information on progress, organiza-
ton and business methods of farmerowned and farmercontroL
led cooperatives.
3. Investigate and report on economic. legal, financial, social
and other phases of farmer-owned cooperatves.
4. Compile and distribute among the farmers information
on cooperative principles and practices and carry on a complete
educational work on cooperatives among farmers.
S. Keep in close touch with economics and other matters
covering the farm commodity situation and development, product
to adapt changing situations to meet agricultural marketing con-
ditions.
6. Assist new farmer cooperative enterprises in setting up
loan applications and qualifying for such loans under the Market
ing Act.
The Marketing Act marks a great turning point in the econom-
ic life Of the American farmer. 1t gives the farmer a definite fir
ing point. For so years agriculture has attempted, through it's own
efforts, to control it's own sales agencies.
But there were six million different farms and it was diff
cult to get together on a common agreement of cooperative policy
With the Marketing Act this problem has been solved. By work
ing direct through the Farm Board cooperative sales agencies can
be built up from county units into state units and from state
units into national selling agencies which can and no doubt will,
in a few years, control the sales Of all farm p~roducts-Cipped.

Anybody that has broke in many
green broncs knows there seldom
are two of them alike. Some OF
them are trustful right from the
first. Some of them fight like
tigers for a while and then be-
come very obedient. Some of them
never give much real trouble but
always are d~isagreeable to handle.
And some of them prove problems
first to last. Each one takes a lit
tie different method to handle them
right. Even the most experienced
horseman has to keep wide awake
to new kinks. But that is what
makes the work interesting.
We have meet daily new situa-
lions that must be broke in. They
are a good deal like others we
have seen. Past experience helps
us to know what to do. Yet each
one is different and we have to be
on the lookout for it's special needs.
Some of them call forth all of u
