 Added leisure will also permit the further pursuit of hobbies. Those persons who had desire for gardening, necessarily repress- ed on account of lack of time, will now have time for this recreation, with the chance of tangible re- ward.
 Others mechanically inclined, or who are studious by nature, will have similar increased opportunity for engaging in the things they like to do. Family life should also benefit from increased leisure.
 Travel and leisure will give peo- pie an opportunity to become bet ter acquainted with museums and art collections, historic shrines and public institutions of interest, all of them stimuiative of better citi- zensnip. They vii also have more time for active interest in public affairs.

Stimulus To Signaling

Unquestionably there will be a greater stimulus to spend. More time will be had for shopping with benefit to the storekeeper and the farmer and manufacturer who supplies the storekeeper, with a consequent benefit to the entire economic organization of the coun- try.
 Some old-fashioned people may be pessimistic about the increase of time for idleness, but we prefer to believe that in view of the un- countable diversions which exist in modern society for wholesome recreation, the influence of leisure is certain, in the main, to be good.
 Cultural Advancement Likely
 The idealist need not necessar- fly feel that his theories will not receive attention. Americans made progress culturally under the work ing conditions of the past. With more leisure time they are bound to realize more of the better and finer experiences of life. Surely, some of these benefits will be greater cultural advancement

 NEW YORK, Aug. 25.-Greater leisure, more time for personal affairs, is being newly acquired, under the operation of the Nation al Industrial Recovery Act by the American working man and wo- man.
 To what use will this new-found leisure be applied?
 A practical view is to anticipate that the workers first use of his extended leisure will be recreation. Idealists may frown, but it is well to remember that the aver age working man makes his own interpretation of enjoyment of life, or, in other words. the pursuit Of happiness, and it is, therefore, likely that with greater leisurs and means to enjoy it he will put in more hours of wholesale di versions from the serious tasks at tendant upon earning a living.
 Widespread Benefit Seen
 The country as a whole is bound to be a decided beneficiary from the successful application of thf recovery act because it is reason able to expect that more oppor- tunity for recreation, without wor- riment over means of livelihood, will make for greater contentmenf with life.

DOUGLAS SIGNS
 NEW LEASE FOR
 CANNING PLANT
Council and Fisheries Com pany Come to Satis-
 factory Terms

Negotiations for leasing the Douglas cannery buildings were completed after several sittings by the City Council at a special meeting held in the City Hall last night when a new lease carrying more favorable terms for the city than all previous leases was prop erly agreed upon. and signed by both parties concerned and is now in effect. The new lease was signed by J. w. Slater for himself and company, the latter now be- ing the Douglas Fisheries Com pany.
 Terms of Lease
 The old lease carried a. maxi mum earning to the city from the cannery operation of $500 up to 20,000 cases packed, and that was almost a third increase over the previous lease. The new lease will bring to the city approximately one third more direct revenue on a 10000 case pack than the last lease would for 10000 cases. On a pack now of 10000 the city's revenue will be double that and for a 30,00O pack the cannery will pay three times as much as it would have to the city. Under the new lease the city can now more adequately keep up the csnnery wharf, provide for necessary ex- tensions thereto, and receive suf- ficient revenue thersfrom to fi- nance same without going down into it's jeans.

Germany Withdraws from the League Of

BERLIN, Germany, Oct. 49,
Hitherto Germany yesterday with
drew from the disarmament con-
ference and resigned from the
League of Nations. This step has
been taken because the other great
powers, France, England, Italy,
and the United States had vigor-
ously opposed Germany's claims to
increase her army and navy above
the level permitted her in the Yer
sailles treaty.
There is no doubt that Germany's
action brings closer than ever the
danger of war in Europe. But
the attempt in some government
quarters to make it seem that

Roosevelt to Continue to

WASHINGTON, D. C.-The tax
on distilled liquors ard wines,
which will come into effect when
prohibition is repealed, is to be
accompanied by the automatic can
collation. of four other taxes under
the MIRA.
The four tlxes which will be
discontinued are the additional
half cent tax on gasolire, the tax
on dividends, the capital stock tax.
and the excess profits tax.
The last three it will be seen,
are taxes upon the rich. Discon,.
tinuing the extra half cent gas
tax is sop thrown to consumers
to cover up the real nature of
this cancellation of taxes to the
rich.
This is il. line with the policy Of
the Roosevelt government iii re-
lieving the rich stockholders, and
placing more and more of the bur
dens of the crisis on the bricks Of

RENO, HERRING
TRYING TO SPLIT
CHI. CONFERENCE
Calling Own Conference of
Governors and Fake
Farm Leaders

DES MONIES, Iowa.-In an at
tempt to break down the growing
support being given to the Farm
ers Second National Conference by
the rank and file members of all
types of farm organizations, Milo
Reno and the notorious Gov. Clyde
Herring of Iowa have joined hands
in the calling of "a conference of
governors and farm leaders"
Gov. Herring has sent a copy of
a letter from the officials of the
National Farmers Holiday Asso-
ciation and the Iowa Farmers
Union to the governors of Is mid
western states, asking them if they
would be interested in such con-
ference. The conference is sup
posed to discuss a national farm
ers code and a national mortgage
moratorium.
1t is worthy of note that in this
move to disrupt the Farmers Sec
ond National Conference, Reno has
allied himself with the man who
called out the national guard
against Iowa farmers last May
when they stopped evictions and
foreclosures and really effected a
moratorium.
1t is also worthy of note that
the Farmer-Labor governor of
Minnesota, Floyd B. Olson. has ex-
pressed willingness to participate
in this splitting conference.
