"I beseech you therefore, breth-

present your bodies a living sacri-
flee, holy, acceptable unto God,
which is your reasonable service. "
These words of Pauls are the golden
text in the lesson-sermon on Soul

Church of Christ, Scientist, branches
of The Mother Church, The First
Church of Christ, Scientist, i'll Bos-
ton, Mass.
One of the Scriptural selections
in the lesson-sermon presents The
LORD uphcldeth all that fall. and
raiseth up all those that be bowed
down. The eyes Of all wait upon
thee" Another Bible selection cites
the word of God as given by
Isaiah, Look unto me, and be we
saved, all the erdS of the earth:
for am God, and there is none
else"
A passage from Science and
Health with Key to the Scriptures,
by Mary Baker Eddy, states: IF
we look to the body for pleasure, we
find pain; for life, we find death;
for truth, we find error, for spirit,
we find its opposite, matter. Now
reverse this action. Look away
from the body into truth and love,
the principle of all happiness, har-
mony, and immortality.

CONGRESS HAS
BIC PROGRAM
Must Work At Rapid Pace To
Complete Legislation Before
Adjournment Date.
BY LYLE c. WILSON
ITniAad Rrncc CAnff Gnruncx.na..


WASHINGTON, May 20.-Twenty
legislative days away from the ad-
journment deadline drawn by Pres
ident Roosevelt, congressional lead
ers contemplated today the possible
necessity of jettisoning one or two
administration bills to complete
the session on time.
The st. Lawrence waterway treaty
and plan to ask fer war debt re-
vision authority already have gone
overheard. To complete the re-
naming schedule Of legislation by
June 10, congress must pass impor-
tant bills at the rate of one every
three days.
Six major bills are pending. They
are:
Glass bank reform, industry con-
troll and public works, railway re-
organization, blue sky securities
bill, home owners loan bill, oil in
dustry regulation.
Of doubtful status is the tariff
question which may be posted to
congress in message asking that
Mr.. Roosevelt be given power to
negotiate final reciprocal agree
ments. Such request would pro-
vide prolonged debate. - -
The Glass banking reform anc
deposit insurance bill IS in the weak
est position of any of the major
pending measures. Experienced OBJ
servers are inclined to believe the
senate will pass the bill.
Several minor bills and the arms
embargo resolution are awaiting
brief consideration and approval
and the independent offices bill
appropriating almost $550,000,o00 is
on the senate calendar. A third
deficiency bill likewise must be
approved.
There I5 large field of dispute
in the emergency railway reorgani-
zation bill.
More bitterly contested will be
the revenue features of the $3 ,3oO,-
G00,000 public works program all
thorizeo in the second section of
the industry control bill. In regu-
lation of industry itself there is
promise Of long battle.

.Z|NN WANTS
HIS CATFISH
BY ID. L. ZINN


l have been reading a great deal
about the state game commission
trying to plant striped bass in Sal
ton Sea, which is very good idea
in my mind, but I understand they
are meeting with tough luck.
But want to tell the fishermen
we have one of the best game fish
and one of the best pan fish in
the whole world right here in I'M
perial Valley trying their very best
to increase and I mean channel
catfish. Not bull heads-but those
long, slim catfish with speckled
sides. Wherever fishermen gather
from the midwest and mountains
there is always an argument which
is the best pan fish and which is
the best game fish, the channel
catfish OF trout. For my part, give
me the trout from 10 to 16 inches
long but after they get larger, give
me the channel catfish everytime.
A few years ago bunch of fel-
lows from the midwest, located in
Palo Verde Valley, decided they
wanted some channel catfish 80
they sent to Kansas and got a lot
of channel cats and planted them
in a lagoon. Then few years Ia
ter the Colorado overflowed and
washed them out into the river,
and they started to grow. The re-
suit is they are catching nice
strings at Yuma and also in some
of the canals here. Some fish, they
tell me, weigh four and five pounds.
I had a nice string last week
caught in our canals. The largest
weighed one and half pounds and
were they goodl AS much difference
in my mind between eating channel
catfish and a black bass as there
is in salt pork or good bacon, all
In favor of the channel catfish.
Now what L would like to see is
the state. game commission plant
those fish in large numbers at Ray
mer's, Finney's and places where we
have good water here in the val
ley. They can get all the small ones
they want at Laguna Dam every
time they flush over there. They
will be sure to grow here.

nors.
The card would be given each
farmer showing the quota he could

If the farmer had 100 hogs and
his quota for the year was sixty,
he would have to dispose of the

Milk presents a more serious
problem as both weight and but
terfat content would have to be
reckoned with.
Cards in this case might include
