Uncommon Sense
Travellers
BY JOHN BLAKE.

THIS would be q dull world with
out fellow travellers. Men and
women are born compenionable.
True, there are snobs who are
very particular about their COM
panions, and as consequence have
nobody to talk to but people as dull
and top-lofty as themselves.
Fortunately we will be able, II we
look around, to find those who are con-
genial-whose tastes are much the
same as our own But real friends, the
understanding kind. the sort that you
know, should you be in trouble, Woulo
come to your assistance. and not CEN
sure you for getting into trouble, are
rare.
If you have any such friends, and
you doubtless have, "grapple them 70
your souls with hoops OF steel" Let
nothing break your friendship, for as
long as it endures it will be one of your
You can AFFORD to be tolerant Of Diff
ference Of opinion. You can well af-
ford to go far out Of your way to do
such friends a service, and II you are
the right kind Of a person. you will do
such q service without ever hoping that
1t will be repaid.
OF such friends as these you will have
few, for rarely do they come into your
life And there are friends Of another
kind that you ought to make. friends
engaged in pursuits different from
yours, friends who are citizens OF other
countries, and have different ideas, but
are sufficiently broadminded, not to ex-
pect that you will think as they do on
all subjects.
What makes like interesting is the
people in it. All the beauty of hill and
valley of river and sea, would be value
less to us, unless we could see 1t and
admire it with others by our sides.
I don't like the word mixer" but
there must be something Of that sort in
every man who wants to know some
thing of the people with whom he as
sociates, and who wants to learn what
they have to teach him. So choose
companions for the journey, and enjoy
it together with them.
If possible, learn other languages, so
that you can talk with people of other
countries without the feeling that they
must be queer, because they have q
curious sounding speech.
We all basically are the same kind
Of creatures. We all, though We admit
it or not, love company, In misery or

Immediate action by the De-

eral Homer S. Cummings.
The Attorney General declared
that wherever authenticated"
complaints of conspiracy to raise
bread prices are received, Federal
district attorneys will be author
lied to take immediate action
against the bakers.
Sees Law Violated
He asserted that concerted ef.
forts by bakers to raise bread
prices is in violation Of the anti
trust act.
Stating that numerous COM
plants have petered out under
investigation, the Attorney Gen
eral said action must depend
upon definite evidence of con-
spiracy.
A fight is now being launched
in Washington against a threat
ened bread price increase, with
civic and trade bodies joining in
the. protets.
Tax Held No Reason
Bakers base their claim for the
increases on the basis of a new
Federal tax on wheat, but it has
been pointed out that this is not
proportionate with the proposed
increase in the price of bread.
Complaints have reached At
torney General Cummings from
several sections of the country.
He said the most serious COM
plant had been received from
