BEER PRICE SLASH
HEARTENS BRITISH
Empire Now Understands
Why America Was So
Much Agitated.

LONDON P.-The English worker
who likes his "old and mild" now feels
he knows why America made so much
to-do over its return to beer.
His brother under -the-skin" feeling
comes from his own welcome to the new
budget, which Topped of o penny from
the cost of each pint.
Scurrying Londoners caught the news
and the spirit from their paper sellers,
many of whom were so excited they
dealt out old editions.
Penny of a pint, Sir!" was the call
Of the day. 1t was the most important
news for many since the English eleven
trimmed Australia on the underside of
the globe in cricket.
There were. however. no sarlands on
the pint pots in the pubs" Every
thing there was matter-of fact and busi-
nesSlke.
The new duty means, on a barrel Of
beer of specific gravity Of 1055 degrees,
. drop from the equivalent of $27.e6 to
s1944
Besides meaning a reduction in the
retail price, the Brewers Society has
also recommended that the strength Of
all beers be improved at least de-
grees.
Apart from any additional barrelage
that may be consumed as a result Of the
lower price, the society calculates the
Increase in strength will mean. at the
present rate Of consumption the use
Of 100000 more hundredweights of bar
ley.
It, therefore, expects British agricu1-
lure will reap benefit from the change
There were, however, many criticisms
Lady Astor, who halls from Virginia
and was the first woman to sit in Par
fiament. said: "A good budget, except
that this is not the time to encourage
people to drink more beer or stronger
beer"

LET US GIVE THANKS

Bad, bad Mexico. Here we have been
considering our southern neighbor as a
real neighbor, who solicited visits from
Americans. made them feel welcome and
overwhelmed them with brand of hos
pitality and courtesy that can't be found
in the United States.
But it seems we have been mistaken.
according to the report of Supervisor
Harry NJ. Baine of Los Angeles county.
Instead of being welcomed with open
arms Supervisor Harry Baine ran smack
into one of those terrible Latin plots"
which held for its objective nothing less
than his assassination. Fortunately for
Supervisor Harry Baine there are some
MeXicans who are able to make a just ap-
praiSal of supervisors worth. The at
torney general of Mexico is one such.
He heard of the diabolical threats be-
ing made on Supervisor Harry Baine's
life and determined to prevent their be-
ing carried out. He was able to have
Supervisor Harry Baine smuggled aboard
a special train. There the supervisor re-
manned in hiding until the train pulled
out of the Mexican capital
Then Supervisor Harry Baine decided
to dc good job of it and remained in
hiding on the rest of the journey until
the border had been crossed and he felt
safely under the protection of his good
old Uncle Sam.
From Tucson, Arizona (well over the
borde-) Supervisor Harry Baine sent a
telegram to the old home town, reveal
ing for the first time, the Mexican plot
against his life and his safe escape from
it. 1t ended with a sentence indicating
the care Supervisor Harry Baine was TAX
ing to return safe and sound to Los An
geles, viz.-"Make no mention of train
| arrive on at Los Angeles"
That was yesterday Today we are
great y relieved (and pleased) to note
that Supervisor Harry Baine did arrive
safely in Los Angeles and there was no
mention made of the train on which he
arrived. That is, no mention was made
OF it except that news photographers
were on hand to photograph Supervisor
Harry Baine, and above all things he is
holding bunch of Mexican baskets.
Oh, we nearly forgot to mention that
Supervisor Harry Baine was one of
party of IS who made a good will trip
to Mexico. The other "a also returned
yesterday, and On the same train with
Supervisor Harry Baine They report
"a wonderful time" and not one of them
confessed having had to hide in his COM
partment all the way home That intri-
guing distinction was left solely for
Supervisor Harry Baine. Bad, naughty.

little man had no gun. Besides he
was so small and there was such
a jolly look on his face that Uncle
Wiggily felt at once he had moth
ing to fear from him.
"Just the same I'd better hide
here behind this bush, even if it
has no leaves on it, and watch what
that little man is DOING thought
the rabbit. "'Safety first!"
The more ha looked at the little
man the more Uncle Wiggily liked
him. He had such a jolly face.

that it would not be long, now, un-
! Ill Christmas came.
The little man on the stone be-
side the spring did not appear to
have seen or heard the rabbit gen.
tleman. If he had he did not look
up. Ano from where he was hid
den behind the bush Uncle Wiggily
/ could both see and hear what the
little man did and said.
First, TO Uncle Wiggily' IS surprise,
the little man drew in long
( breath ond then he blew it out at
| the spring Of water. The surface
of the water shimmered and rip
pied as il had done when the sum-
mer breeze blow it. But nothing
else happened
"Not cold enough!' said the lit
tie man loud enough for Uncle Wig
gily to hear "Not nearly cold
enough. I must try again.
This time the little man took a
longer breath and he blew it out
harder than at first. The water
in the spring shivered and shook
and splaehed up little on the side
walls Of rock, bit nothing else hap
oened and Uncle Wiggily opened
his eyes wider
"Hil ho!' said the little man
bending down and touching the
water with a tiny finger. "T'hat IS
cold. but not cid enough. l must
try once more;
"What is going on here?''
thought Uncle Wiggily. "It is very
strange

Then away he hoped over the
fields ara through the woods, far,
far away.
After a while Uncle Wiggily
reached a place that, in the sum-
mer tine was a dingly dell; that is
it was ? green valley through which
flowed q bubbl;ng stream of water,
a little brook coming out of a
spring.
But now the dingly dell was more
like a bosky nook, and yet it WASH It
so very bosky either for with the
approach of winter all the green
bushes, leaves, ferns and moss had
turned brown The brook was still
bubbling through the little valley
that in summer, made the dinghy
dell and the spring was there,
sparkling in the sun which now
was far from being hot.
ON just step in what used to be
the dlngly dell and get a drink of
water, - said Uncle Wiggily to him
self. 'Then I'll hop along and
look for an exciting and funny adj
venture -
Making very little noise, for he
always hoppe6 quietly, Uncle Wig
gily went down into the brown val
/ ley that was green in summer
AS there were no leaves on the
trees and bushes, the rabbit gen.
tleman could see the whole dell al
} once.

beside the spring, Mr.. LongearS

WASHINGTON. Nov. Is. = The
furor over gold these days is Moth
ing to what happened in 1865 when
a waggish mechanic in the mint
nearly disgraced the United States
government.
The incident began four years
earlier when a preacher in Ridley,
Pa, wrote Secretary of the Treas
ury S. P. Chase. The minister
said he assumed the secretary
probably was a Christian and
said that therefore he believed
some such engraving as "In God
We Trust" should be on all coins.
Chase agreed, but it took four
years for the scheme TO filter
through governmental red tape.
The great day finally arrived when
gold coins were TO come out of the
money making machines, with the
