P. w. A. FOR THOSE in NEED

Editor -Askov American:
The P. w. A. which is in full swing,
must alleviate the, condition OF some
but of course some are disappointed.
They allege there Is favoritism
shown and that the work is not justly
apportioned.
The P. w. A. was intended for those
out of work and in need.
If any one accepts work knowing
he is not in needy he naturally takes
away a job that justly belongs to one
in need. And a man taking this adj
vantage must be considered small
enough to crawl into knothole. II
he would only crawl in and draw the
hole in after him it would be quite
a relief am sure.

STILL AT OLD GAME
mile Laos County Times)


The cid line politicians who so
vigorously declare that the farmers
and working men have nothing in
common have another snort coming.
The Farmers Holiday Association is
showing that the farmers and work
res have enough in common so that
they can help each other. Laborers
in six furniture factories i'm Mime
apolis are cut on strike for decent
wages and the farmers of the Holiday
Association are sending them truck
loads of farm produce to enable them
to keep up their fight Yes, we can
see that it is going to be hard going
for the old line politicians who want
to keep the farmers and workers from
uniting.

Look from
all angles

A recent business talk be-
tween a printer and a creamery
secretary brings a warning to
the consumer of printing, and
in fact any other commodity
where the smooth tongued
salesman tells you that your
local concern cannot compete
because it is not equipped to
do the work and because he
does not specialize i'm that class
of work.
So the. story goes the cream
cry secretary asked for quo
tation on a certain job and at
ter it had been figured by the
local printer allowing for cost
of production. was given a quo
tation of $4.S5. The creamery
secretary smiled and spread a
letter out before the printer.
1t was a quotation on the job
from a we'll known creamery
printing concern with quo
tation that they would be
pleased to do the job for $3.50.
Sure they would be pleased to
do it but SO would the local
printer for that price.
The whole thing SINNERS
down to this: On certain jobs
the specially printing concern
would elect to take a loss In
order to get into the confidence
of the one ordering the print
ing and then for the average
run of jobs would use their
craftsmanship either by letter
or person to say that they were
better equipped, specialized,
etc. to handle the job and would
possibly get many Of such jobs
with no questions asked even
though the prices charged were
several times sufficient to make
up for the losses incurred on
the certain leader jobs and GER
tainly higher than the local
printer could have done the
same work for.
You are sure of getting
consistent prices when you
consistently deal with the

Executives Would
Compel Farmers to
Accept Discipline

Schmedeman Of Wisconsin-Said they
were unanimous in favoring the pro-
gram.
Compulsion Held Needed
'Compulsion Is necessary to make
farm relief work." said Olson.
THE administrators present pro-
gram has its points. but there Is no
assurance Of production control
through voluntary efforts. In my
state they will raise more wheat than
last year although . large percentage
Of the farmers signed up under the
wheat program. Those who didn't
sign will increase their output. Our
program gets at these"
Objections Of farm officials centered
around three Observation-Disclosures
held the governors program would be
too costly, uncomfortable. and unac.
ceptable to majority Of farmers long
used to- ordering their own affairs.
Farm officials asserted that with
fixed prices it would be necessary for
the government to undertake stabil-
ization operations resembling prob
ably, activities Of the federal farm
board and that It would cost the gov
eminent billions OF dollars"
Olson disputed this. He said that
Immediately the program was in ef-
feet, farmers should be given permis-
sion to market given percentage Of
their output. The amount each far
mer could sell and the time for SELL
ing could be fixed to prevent mar

SOLUTION TO PREVIOUS
CONTRACT PROBLEM

By VIM. E. MCKINNEY
Secretary, American Bridge League
Have you ever seen hand where
the declarer had to get rid Of some
trump, even though he had no losing
trump trick, so that he could discard
a losing card on dumny's trump
Such Is the hand that was sent to me
the other day by Herman g. 0eisert
Of Indianapolis, and I want to say It
Is one OF the most interesting have
seen for some time.
The Bidding
When South opened the contracting
with one diamond and his partner
answered with two no trump. he knew
he was going places with the hand. as
the bid Of two no trump practically
marked North with two aces. After
South bid clubs and North supported
the club bid, South now felt quite pos
tive that North's holding was at least
four clubs to the ace, and the ace OF
hearts.
While the bid of seven might pe
termed optimistic. the grand slam
bonus in rubber bridge Is large enough
that 1t pays to gamble.

chance to make the contract was to
get rid Of the ten Of spades.
This looked rather difficult, especi.
ally when you SO that the diamond
suit will not set. But he pgoceeded
to play the hand IN the following
manner:
After winning heart With the ace.
he led . small heart and trumped
with tho ten o1 clubs. He then led Z

SEE QUICK DECISION
ON POSSIBILITY OF
new CURRENCY WAR
Pound and Dollar Almost on
Same Level 40 When Both
Were Based on Gold

washington. Nov. 4.-(R-Whether
the new monetary policy Of the
United States will result in q cur.
1ency depreciation war with other
countries may be determined in the
next few days.
With the British pound rising Fri
day to $4.855, within q cent or its
collar value when both units were
on a gold basis, some economists be.
lieve attainment of the old parity
would be logical point for decision
on whether to seek approximate sta.
bilization or further dollar deprecia-
ton.
Although the administration en-
phasizes 1t has no desire for q de.
probation race, some officials concede
such competitive depreciation stu q
possibility.
No clear-cut statement has come
from France or England to indicate
their asquieScence in the administra-
tons state belief that the buying Of
foreign gold could be pursued without
lletriment to them.
Currency depreciation gives the de-
preciating country trade advantage
as long as foreign prices rise more
rapidly than domestic prices and costs.
The only way the United States
could push dollar depreciation much
further without encountering resis-
lance by Great Britain, some econom-
lists believe, Is by achieving a domestic
price rise which would preserve the
world-trade status quo as far as pro-
duction costs are concerned.
The London gold figure fell over
night from the equivalent Of 1926 an
ounce to $32.08, but following their
policy OF constantly increasing the
domestic figure, administration Of
ticials raised It from $32.57 Friday
to $32!67 Saturday.
