GETTING HIM TOLD

A self-respecting dog, however
mean, will not bite a child. We
owned a dog SO vicious that we
had to keep him chained.
A little boy who brought the
milk each day, used to tantalize
this dog into a rage by making
a face at him every time he went
by him.
On one occasion that little boy
came with the milk when the dog
happened to be loose. We heard
deep growl, a wild scream. We
rushed out to find the little boy
on his back. the dog standing
over him, a forepaw on each Of
the child's shoulders, and rubbing
his nose against the child's nose,
and snarling savagely into the
child'S face.
The dog had not harmed the
child in the least; he was merely
teaching the youngsters some
manners; he was showing him
how it felt to have faces made
at him.

NEa service SVnu correspondent
WASHINGTON. - The rat situa.
!" tion has become highly trouble
some. It's one of those things that
ught to be co-ordinated.
The Bureau of Biological Survey
says 7,527,00O rats have beer
done to death in CWA and other
campaigns this year in Georgia
Alabama and Texas and that the
areas attacked will be free oil
rats for seven months.
It is very proud of its own new
rar poison, made mostly of red
squill, which it says Killed 6,9O4,-
600, while traps got the rest. In
cidentany, it estimated that, the
average rat does damage of 50 a
year, so you can figure the saving
But DR.. H. E. Haseltine of the
U. S. Public Health Service throws
cold water OIL the Bureau of Bio
logical Survey by insisting that
rats can't possibly be eradicated, be-
cause they're so prolific. The best
you can do, he contends, is to keep
them within bounds.
And the anti-rat campaign gets
still another knock right here in
the capital, where cat owners are
hollering because their pussies
get caught in traps set by the
Transient Relief Bureau, which
decided rat-trapping was a good
way to keep the unemployed busy.
Citizens who want the rats
caught are disputing with the cat
owners, but the imbroglio doesn't
do the rat campaign any good.

SIOUX FALLS, S. OAK. March g.
The full force of Civil Works Admin
istration workers was on the job in
South Dakota this week. the reduc-
ton in the number Of these workers
ordered from headquarters OF the
civil works director not having as yet
applied to South Dakota.
Those in charge Of civil works al
fairs in this State were authorized
to employ up to $4,000 persons, and
it Is stated 42,800 workers we're on
the rolls for this week. It is ex-
pected q reduction will be made In
South Dakota next week In the num-
ber of persons employed, to comply
with the plan of the national leaders
to gradually reduce the number In
all the States, so the work will stop
not later than May l. When funds
for civil works projects are cut OF
entirely in South Dakota difficulty
may be experienced in obtaining en-
for all the persons released,
and this Is q problem which will
have to be solved by those In charge
Of relief work in the State.
The assignment Of $780, 900 to
South Dakota for the purchase Of
live stock feed by Harry L. Hopkins,
Federal relief administrator. Is very
timely, as hundreds Of farmers
victims of the drouth three years IN
succession-had no means Of obtain
ing feed for their live stock.
The assignment of the $1,850, 900
will enable these farmers to care for
their live stock until pastures are
green in the Spring, when there will
be sufficient feed on the open ranges
for the animals.

Progressives Consider Step Which

SANTA FE, N. Mex, March s.
Never before has the political horizon
been more hazy in New Mexico. Any
thing may happen within the next
eight months, say the politicians.
A third ticket may be put up, ac-
cording to newspapers ticket en-
tered by Senator Bronson Cuttings
Progressives. II this Is done it viii
be the first time since the Bull
Mooser days that either Of the old
parties has had a serious rival In
the field except each other.
Talk of a Progressive ticket has
been stimulated by reports that the
return to the Senate Of Cutting is IA
circles. It has been pointed out that
the Democrats could then indorse
Cutting, running on the Progressive
ticket, and make no nomination
themselves for the long term.
Representative Dennis Chavez Is
said to want to run for Senator. He
might object to this arrangement.
Senator Carl A. Hatch is said to be
sure Of the short-term nomination II
he wants 1t.
In the meantime both Republicans
and Democrats are making overtures
toward Cutting with the purpose of
getting him to run on one ticket or
the other.
A move has been started In the
G. o. p. to have an early meeting
of the State Central Committee to
make peace with the Progressives.
Five counties have already indorsed
the plan, led by Bernalillo, San
Miguel and Dona, three Of the big

CRITICISM OF c. W. A.
is BROUGHT BY SNOW
Connecticut Raises Storm Of Pro
test Over Use of Men
on Roads.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
HARTFORD, Conn, March 3.-A
blizzard and a near blizzard within
less than a week not only wrecked
communications in Connecticut but
have brought about the first severe
criticism of c. w. A. operations in
the State. With every city in the
State hard pressed for funds, the ex-
pense of snow removal work came as
q hard blow to their treasures. At
the same time, the snowfall stopped
practically all the c. w. A. projects In
the State.
The acting State administrator, on
authority from Washington, an
nounced that c. w. A. men could be
used for snow removal at Govern
ment expense. Then word came from
Administrator Hopkins In Washing
ton that snow removal was work that
the municipalities would have to do
any way and that c. w. A. men could
not be used. State and city of1cials
flooded the wires to Administrator
Hopkins and to Connecticut members
Of Congress with protests, with the re-
suit that permission was given to use
G. w. A. men from last Saturday noon
until last Monday night, but before
that period had expired . second
storm had struck the State and word
came from washington, after q plea
by the acting administrator here, that
C. w. A. men could be used through
Wednesday night If the projects to
which they were assigned could not
be worked. The first reversal in Wash
ington, refusing the services Of the
G. w. A. men, has been used as an
editorial text in the State ON the evils
of q system In which everything Is
controlled in Washington. Further
criticism has sprung up as result OF
the refusal Of one G. w. A. gang to
work at snow removed In Hartford
last Monday.
