fore Congress. Given Approval.
Resolution favoring the thirty
year compulsory retirement bill now
in congress, has been adopted by
Indianapolis local 100, National
Federation of Postoff1ce Clerks, it
was announced by Secretary Ed
ward Grimes.
The local also favored increasing
the employees contributions to the
retirement fund rather than re-
ducing annuities.
A statement issued by the local
pointed out that, contrary to public
opinion, retirement annuities are
not paid by the government. but by
a fund created by 81 per cent
deduction from employees salaries.
The statement set out that the
thirty-year retirement rule would
aid the employment situation, but
would place younger men on the
pension lists. requiring heavier as
sessment or reduced annuities be-
cause of their longer life span after
retirement.

RETAIL TRADE
IMPROVEMENT
IN NOVEMBER

An encouraging sign Of improve
ment in business conditions in Cal
ifornia was indicated by the SUBJ
stantial increase in retail trade dur
ing November compared with the
same month last year, according to
Bank of Americas business review,
released today. The aggregate dol
lar volume of retail sales was 3.2 per
cent over November, 1852.
While the gain in the dollar value
of retail sales of this year over last
year is partly due to increased pri-
ces, it is generally conceded that
the actual volume of sales in No
vember of this year is greater than
last year.
Manufacturing industries Of Cali
fornia had 234 per cent more en-
ployees than in November, 1882. The
largest gain was recorded in the
motion picture industry with a gain
of Sd per cent. Employment in the
wholesale trade was up 81 percent
over November, 1882, and the retail
trade up 11.6 per cent.
Total building permits issued in
SIS cities in eight far western states
during November showed an in
crease Of 81 per cent over October.

MAKE SAVING
IN FOOD COST

Americas health in general is inn
proving from year to year because
of the increasing care that is being
given to the preparation and stor-
age of food, according to Alonzo
Baker of Edgar Bros company,
Frigidaire representatives in this
section.
"The American public" said Ba-
ker, lis becoming more acutely
conscious of the benefits of food
preservation, a fact that is being
reflected in the sustained electric
refrigeration business that has been
noted.
Besides, there is the factor of
| actual savings in dollars. Frigid-
aire corporation officials in Day.
i ton have announced that prices OH
| all household models will be in
| creased January l. They delayed
doing this as long as possible, bu.
increased labor, production and ma
/ terial costs made their action ne
| cesSary.
Much interest has been displayed
| in automatic defrosting, a device
that insures the housewife against
spoilage in case she might forget to
turn on her electric refrigerator
after defrosting. In Frigidaire, the
motor is turned on again automat-
| ically as soon as defrosting has
been accomplished, which. is done
merely by throwing a switch.
"After the recents years that
America and the world in general
has been through, there is a de-
cided switch to presents of the Use
full nature, and Frigidaire is pop
ular choice this year."

HAY SHORTAGE
PENDING IN
VALLEY AREA
BY ]. S. CAMERON

1.-THE last four days have deyel-
oped a situation that alfalfa grow
ers in Imperial Valley have antici-
pated since last SPRING vas tht
statement of H. A. Hastain, presl-
dent and manager of the Imperial
Hay Growers association, when dis
cussing the advance in hay prices
Imperial Valley finds itself with
an overload of cattle and sheep, il
relation to the feed now avail
able" said Hastain and he stated
that in his opinion the last few days
of frost and cold weather was the
beginning of 80 or 40 days of SLOW
growing weather, which will ne
doubt create the necessity for feed
ing lay.
! Hastain affirms the belief thai
I there is less hay in Southern Cali
fornia now, than at this time lasl
year, and there was no carry ovel
last year. The added demand upon
the available supply by reason ol
| the numerous cattle and sheep tC
be fed means that the hay is likely
to be cleaned up early in TIE COM
ing year.
Hastain stated that dealers in
quiring for hay are finding Imperial
Valley on $12 market with nc
| hay selling below $11 ton, and
that they are complaining about
the price at which hay is being
held.
"In my opinion" said Hastain
"the dealers are largely responsible
for this shortage. When the seas
en- started last spring they offered
81 a ton as the top price and
claimed that it was all that the
dairymen could pay, which of course
meant loss to the growers OF
three to four dollars a ton-a con-
dition which could not last"
The result of this, Hastain eX-
planned was the withdrawal of much
alfalfa land from production, and
other crops such as barley, wheat
or flax planted instead. 1.-THE con-
sumers of alfalfa hay are going tc
face, not only a stronger price, but
| a decided scarcity of the commod-
ity. The producers have no dispo-
sition to continue to produce lay
at loss," Hastain said.
The hay association manager
thinks that the outlook for an ear's
cleanup is good. 1T does not seen
possible that there is sufficient hay
to take care of the trade until tht
new hay comes on" he stated. Th'
situation is quite serious, he be,
lieves, and instead of the low prices
being life saver for consumers i
may turn out to be a boomerang
and will afford an opportunity fo
serious thought.

THE DAY AFTER

! Just about the most unattractive things
I in the world today are turkey, and all its
/ Christmas trimmings 1t is the morning
after the day before and what was hailed
yesterday as a thing of delight, today be-
comes pain in the neck, except that the
pain is more likely to be down at the
south end of the vest.
We do our Christmas celebrating in an
odd way, by eating two or three times as
much as we ordinarily would, or should,
and this, ON top of all the excitement that
Christmas usually brings, results in a ter
rible let-down the next day.
Christmas is mighty strenuous. We are
up at dawn and remain on the jump
throughout the day and far into the
night. We scurry hither and thither, do
ing this and that, and use up as much
energy as on any other three days of the
year.
Memory brings back the terrible wish
that used to be made in younger days
that Christmas would come every day in
the year. Now the very thought strikes
terror into our souls. One Christmas is
great plenty in any 365 days and is
enough to make one thankful that there
are leap years when we get an extra day
of grace
What's all this anyhow, the rawlings of
a>grouch? a No, sir, or madam. far from
1t. Christmas is worth every bit of effort
required before its arrival, all the stren-
uousness while it is with US, and all the
moaning and groaning (and bills) that
follow it. It's great old day and any
move to abolish it would find us in the
front ranks of those who would defend
it.
We are still little too near it all, but
battered and weary as it leaves us, We are
Tor 1t in big way-but only once wear.
1hlS is the stumbling season of the
year-stumbling over new TOYS and
stumbling over bills.
indications are that the nation took ifs
new liberty in the alcoholic line with con-
siderable restraint.

"Of course Christmas was real

If the rooms of Uncle Wiggily's
bungalow had been cluttered and
messed up with toys and Christmas
presents in the morning, they were
much more that way in the after
noon. For not only were the toys OF
Jingle, Jangle, Buster, Custer and
Baby Bunty scattered about be-
fore lunch, but after lunch Johnnie
and Billie Bushytail, the squirrels
brought over their roller skates
Jackie and Peetie Bow Wow, the
puppies, brought their drum and
horn and Curly and Floppy Twisty-
tail, the pigs, brought the toy train
and their bicycle.
But it was all jolly good fun and
Uncle Wiggily, Sitting in his easy
chair, looked at the children and
laughed. All of a sudden Baby Bun
ty, the little orphan rabbit, hoped
over to him, holding in her paw a
toy airplane and she said:

UNCLE WIGGILY'S AIRPLANE

were so many toys and jolly things
around Uncle Wiggily'S hollow

jump around through the different
rooms so he wouldn't step on some
thing.
