The Green Hill
BY MARGARET E. BRUNER

BY MARGARET E. BRUNER
Afar, saw a lush green hill;
1t seemed haven, blessed
With every needed thing to fill
My heart with peace and rest.
For I was tired of valley ways
Fatigued and overworn,
And longingly I turned my gaze
Upon it night and morn.
There was a steep and winding roa
That travellers might take,
What lay beyond served as a goad,
I bore much for its sake.
When, wearied, I had gained the
crest
And thought from trouble freed,
looked about, but was distressed
To find both thorn and weed.

J. E. Garrett has awakened my
dormant sense of humor with his
assertions. I think a trip to one
of our local baking units and the
sight of the many hundred loaves of
bread that are produced hourly will
be a most lucid and convincing ar
gument against his idea.
The law of supply and demand
will assert itself in this industry,
as in the many others, and if the
people must live on a curtailed in
come, the price of foodstuffS must
balance in proportion.
R. F.. Payne, your article has,
without a doubt, answered itself as
to banks being un smoothly and
comfortably, but at the depositors'
expense. 1t also is true that there
would be no necessity of urging the
people to buy if their money were
not tied up in worthless investments
and closed banks. I am afraid that
the people have come face to face
with reality in regard to the I'M
stable banking situation.
AS our court records show, and
federal actions have shown, not only
the people, but our banking authori-
ties, we're alarmed over the situa-
ton. 1 have a small amount tied
up in a local bank and the expert
ence was costly.
1t is my earnest desire to love
and conflde in my felloW-men, but
until the fellow-men in question
quit pulling my left leg and tugging
at my right eye, 1 must remain on
guard against Barnum's old saying,
There is one born every minute"
I trust this is received as friendly
criticism.

Prohibition has accomplished
more than any other known Sys-
tenn. 1t is not making everything
dry, but it is reducing the amount
of alcohol consumed for beverage
purposes.
Repeal the eighteenth amend
ment, they say, and turn the prob
lem of liquor control back to the
states. What will happen if this is
accomplished?

any good. But we need good deal more than
that, and it will be tragic if We don't get it,
1t is for that reason that the scheme for
the shorter working week is so important
Unless We move to redistribute jobs on a
wholesale basis, keeping wages up, but max
ing each bit of work go farther, our unem-
ployment problem never will be solved It will
be a permanent thing; and with it we shall
have a permanent dole.

They studied the minute chemistry
of the blood and of the eXcretions
in seven cases of heat cramps.
Obviously when working under
great heat, there is loss of water
and salt from the body in the per-
spiration. The psychologist Hal
dane found a loss of 51a pounds IN
hour in seasoned Golfers at work.
Another psychologist found that the
weight loss in Turkish bath was
about two pounds an hour.
An extremely interesting point is
the fact the cramps promptly dis
appear when large amounts of salt
solution, made up to resemble the
concentration of salt in the blood,
are injected into the body.
All symptoms disappear in six
hours after treatment starts.
Apparently heat cramps come on

 The former Governor also said the plan must not fall through lack of individual cooperation and support of the Presidents plan The plan is the only course for good citizens in Democracy when there is sickness in. the body polite. The President has frankly stated this is an experiment and he will be the first to acknowledge failure if 1t does not work.

ENID, Okla, Aug. 23.-If J. Y. Callahan of Enid, Delegate to Congress from old Oklahoma Ter ritory, hadn't appointed Hugh Johnson to West Point in 1897 he might not be flooded with appeals to use his influence with the Ma tional Recovery Administrator to obtain jobs.

HOOVER IS NOT
 TO TESTIFY IN
 BANKING PROBE
Says Knowledge of Situa- ton Does Not Justify
 Trip to Detroit

PALO ALTO, Cal, Aug. g. = Former President Herbert Hoov- CT has withdrawn into the privacy of his home here, announcing to investigators at Detroit in the banking collapse, that his know ledge of the situation does not justify a trip tv Detroit.
 Judge May Act
 At Detroit, Judge Harry Keidan who is conducting the open grand jury probe of the closing of the First National and Guardian Ma tiona1 Bank of Commerce, planned to announce later what further ef- forts, if any, will be made to se- cure Hoover's version of events which led to Michigan's banking holiday last February.
 Information Sought
 It is said information sought concerned the attitude of the Ad- ministrative agencies of the Gov ernment toward the closed banks previous to March 4. It is sug- gested that Hoover might have certain facts which might render his testimony as a witness highly significant and essential to a thorough and true presentation of the reason for the closing of De- troit's two banks.

Big Business Labor Vie,us,
 Little Merchants Slim Purse
 Ciue NRA It's Biggest Worry
By BYRON PRICE .(Chief of Staff, The Associated Press, Washington


 Two features of the MIRA cam- paign are giving officials more concern than all of the others put together.
 One is the attitude of certain big business interests toward organized labor. The other is the complaint of many small merchants that they simply haven't the money to ex- pand employment.
 If these two obstacles could be swept away, the recovery admin istration would be really happy. It has other troubles, naturally, but it seems quite serene about them.
 It shows no great worry, for in stance, at reports that some em- ployers have signed the code and then restricted operations, or dou- bled up jobs, so as to preclude the necessity of new employment.
 From General Johnson, down, those who are engineering the N. R. A. appear fully confident they can remedy that situation by the force of an organized public opin- ion.
 It is different with the worries about labor troubles in the big gest industries, and lack of ready capital in the smallest. No one at the recovery administration sees these two barriers as necessarily insurmountable, but everyone wish es that they were out of the way because of the bad feeling they are causing.

WILSON WILL BOOST ALASKA
 TOURIST TRADE
Steamship Official, Now Tn Juneau, Enthusiastic
 Over Northland

Thomas B. Wilson, Vice President and General Manager of the Alaska Steamship Company, sees great things in store for the Territory. He arrived here yesterday on the Yukon. Today he stated that a great field of tourist travel was almost being overlooked by the world as a whole.
 People are spending thousands of dollars for trips to Switzerland to take in the winter sports, when right on. their very doorsteps is a greater and more beautiful field for travel" MT. Wilson said. Al aska can give as much as Switzer- land ever could to the people who are in search of a winter of play and recreation"
 For Tourists
 Mir Wilson comes to his present position from that of President of the Pacific Greyhound Lines. He plans a new and more active advertising and development cam paign for increased tourist busi- ness for the next summers season. which will benefit not only the Alaska Steamship Company, but the Territory as well. He believes that the tourist season can well be extended to include not only June, July and August, but May and September as well. In the background he has in mind the exploitation of Winter season which may run competition with the worlds greatest winter play grounds. Why shouldn't Alaska have winter season." he asked. "Alaskans have snow, don't they? They have scenery which cannot be equalled anywhere when figured in time and cost to the traveller. AlasFc has the greatest poten- tialities of any country which I have ever seen."
 On First Trip
 MT. Wilson is on his first trip to Alaska since he assumed his duties as Vice President of his com pany. Four years ago, when he was still connected with the Pacific Greyhound Lines, he came north as a tourist, and the impression which he gained on that trip had much to do with his present en- thusiasm for the Territory.

SURPRISE

SURPRISE
 What happened with respect to labor was something like this:
 Many of the bigger business men who helped to write the recovery act expected it to permit indus tries to draft their own codes of fair practice. The government was to come in only to enforce these codes after industry had said what they should be.
 MT. Roosevelt had another idea. He put in several clauses which would strengthen the part the gov- ernment was to play, and also would give a larger voice to labor.
 It surprised many industrialists when the administration began say ing "No" to so many things in- dustry wrote into it's codes. Prob ably 90 per cent of these noes" had to do with wages and hours
