The agreement between the Farm
Credit Administration and the Agri-
cultural Adjustment Administration
will not bar any farmer who has
adequate security and is otherwise
eligible to borrow, from obtaining
loans for financing agricultural pro-
duction from production credit as
sociations or from private credit
agencies discounting with the Fed
eral intermediate credit banks, ac-
cording to a statement issued by the
Farm Credit Administration. The
only effect of the agreement is that
the farmer who has not signed a
production control agreement will be
required to. furnish in addition to
other necessary loan papers, salts
factory evidence that he plans no in
crease in production of basic agri-
cultural commodities in manner
detrimental to the success of the
production control programs. Farm
ers who have signed control agree
ments will need no further proof of
their cooperation in order to borrow.

PRESIDENT AFTER LEGAL
POLITICO PARASITES

The Administration intends to
make real cleanup and perman-
ent reform in the long-stanGing po-
litico-Legal gratis in Washington.
The pointed ousting from their
political jobs of Democratic leaders
who have set themselves up in law
practice before government depart
ments at the capital is only the
opening gun of real crdsace.
President Roosevelt stands pre-
pared to support legislation which
effects the fullest measure of re-
form, and his only objection to the
bill introduced by Senator Arthur
M. Vandenburg (R.) of Michigan is
that it does not go far enough.
The President would e6ectually
prevent members of either national
political committee from practicing
before any government department
or agency and would bar such indi-
viduals from holding government
Office.
Also he would prohibit members
of Congress representing private in
terests for fee before government de-
partments or agencies, and remove
the spectacle of former Treasury
and internal revenue officials acting
as income-tax advisors, concultants,
or lawyers.
Former officials would not be al
lowed to practice before their form
er subordinates or associates.
These abuses did not begin with
March A, 1888. They were never
higher than during the Harding
regime, and they continued right
through the last decade. Eepubli-
can lawyers were in Washington in
as great force as Democratic lawyers
have been since March 4.
Occasionally, a hushed hint was
given to some one of them TO tone
down their activities. But never
before has President beer instru-
mental in driving from party office
men who were reaping profits in
practice before government bodies.
The income tax racket is probably
the most notorious and best paid in
Washington. Former officials in
the bureau of internal revenue set
themselves up as income tax advis-
ers. They know the ropes, if they
do not actually retain records OF
specific and highly valuable informa-
ton. They are highly expert in
picking holes in the law, the. know
methods of obtaining rebates, and
from every dollar of income tax they
save their clients they receive a
generous cut. President Roosevelt
feels that this scandal should be
obliterated as far as is humanity pos
sible.
Starting with partly prearrang-
ed question at press conference,
President Roosevelt's campaign on
political grafters promises t, broad
en- into the most extensive cleanup
in recent history.

For Color and Flavor

Corn, it is just being discovered,
makes very savory and satisfying
salads. Its golden color, especially
when served with red pimiento, or
gay pink carrots, makes it espe-
cially desirable for the salad

calories, but we don't need to. Its
flavor recommends it. Here are
two delicious tested recipes.

Solution to Previous
Contract Problem

Secretary American Bridge League

Secretary American Bridge League
VXTATCH the drop of the cards
w on the first and second
tricks, because it is here that you
may lay your plan of attack for the
entire hand.
What is the significance of the
opening leaders play? What is the
distribution? All this information
may be gained on the first or sec
ond play.
Todays hand was played by L.
j. Haddad, recognized as one of
the outstanding players of Chicago.
While South holds two ace-queen
combinations, he felt that a heart
bid was safer than one no trump.
as the hand is four three-three-
three distribution, the ace of dia-
monds has nothing to back it up,
and the spade suit is weak
When North bids two clubs, that
is made unless you are prepared
either to bid three clubs on the
next round or, if your partner bids
two no trump, you are willing to &c
to three no trump.
Otherwise, you must respond with
one no trump, rather than two of
suit.
While North's club suit is rather
weak, nevertheless he is in a posi-
ton to play the hand at three no

no trump. If his partner should

versal symbol of success and it is
humiliating to be without.
Of course, I can't tell any sure
way to lick the situation. You
can't press button and make
things come right. The only thing
you can do is to hang on to COM
viction that you'll find way out
and never stop striving toward your
goal.
There are two general ways in
which people react to a tough sit
uation. They give up and bewail
their fate. Or they develop an
added resourcefulnesS. Just as in q
physical emergency the glands Sc
crete substance which makes us
able to run faster, so in a financial
emergency, some people are con-
scious of heightened perceptions
which aid them to rise to the occa-
sion.
Perhaps you are oversensitive
about the girl You do not feel able
to shine without possession to daz-
zle her. No real woman deserts a
man when he is down. What in
fuences her mostly is his own atti-
tude toward his problem. Let him
show the white feather of defeat
and she loses confidence in his abil-
ity to make a comeback.
The only advice I have to give is
don't lie down. Don't quit trying
either to get a job or to see your
girl when you want to. Instead of
retreating from obstacles, go for
ward to meet them. I realize that
this is easier to say than to do.
Nevertheless. it is a painful fact
that all life is fight, and that quit
tiers never win.
Dear Jane Jordan-What am I
to do with two boy friends that
are constantly cutting my throat?
1t seems as though I just can't
keep a girl friend and hang on to
my male friends, too. l have two
friends that I chum around with.
Each of them has plenty of money

all they have plenty of spare time.
When I am hard at work they are
OUT cutting my throat with my
girl friends.
Over a year ago we attended a
party and after a while 1 noticed
that my date was missing along
with Mike and Freddy. When I
questioned my date she replied,
"Oh, we just went out to Beech
Grove for a ride" Christmas eve
I met little girl that I thought
was my dream girl. I introduced

her to Mike and now I am out in
the cold again.
What battles me is that both of
these fellows treat me Al when
there isn't any girl around. Then
they don't think thing of parad-
ing my ex-girl friend around my
neighborhood
BEWILDERED BERNIE.
Answer suppose you can't help
being envious of boys who have
money, spare time and automobiles
to help out with their con-
quests, but I do think you'll have
to build up some compensations for
yourself. 1t ought not to be hard
to become a more interesting per-
son than your play boy friends ever
can be. Bereft of their money and
their cars, what would they have
to offer?
1t is fine to have things, but it is
dangerous to rely on them for your
popularity Instead of being envious
of what you consider superior adj
vantages, it would pay you to
cultivate a personality that is not
dependent upon possessions for its
force.
Dear Jane Jordan-I've been
going with fellow off and on for
over a year. I came to love him
and of course I weakened and be-
came intimate with him. He has
mentioned marriage several times
although he hasn't got as far as
getting me ring or providing a
license. How can I tell whether
or not he is serious? My friends
seem to think he is just feeding
me a line.
A short time ago, the first time
dated him after a split up of a
few months, he took me to a
dance and became drunk which
was very humiliating and disgust
ing. Do you think he could real
ly care for me and yet humiliate
me SO the very first time I was
with him after being separated
for so long?
VERY LONELY BOOTS.
AnSwer-The best thing you can
do is to charge the young man off as
one Of your mistaeks. Even if you
did marry him I doubt if you would
be happy together. A man as
evasive in an emotional situation as
he has proved to be would hardly be
made more ardent by marriage.
There is nothing to be gained in
condemning yourself for what has
happened. Your virtue or lack of it
has no power to change the mans
character one way or the other.
Women have never yet succeeded in
making emotionally irresponsible
men responsible merely by force of
their own virtue.
You are bound to regret the in
cident, of course But spend no
time in useless repining. Let your
next choice be more wisely made for
sounder reasons than your biological
needs.
