A Few Lucky Farmers

Devastating as the effects of the drouth have been, they will at least mean good fortune to few - to those farmers who do not happen to occupy land in the sec tions where the destruction has been worst. Consider the case of the farmer who raises corn, for instance
 The national corn crop this year is ex- pected to total around 1,57O, 100000 bush- els - tremendous drop from the 2,343,- O00,000 bushels of last year. As the yield has dropped, the price has gone upi Last year farmers sold their corn for approxi- mately AZ cents bushel. The price right now is 81 cents. The farmer whose fields were missed by the drouth, and who raised a corn crop of normal proportions, is go- ing to cash in handsomely.

We're Well Warned

State authorities are regarding seriously
 the warning issued from Washington re- gently with regard to the spread of the Dutch elm disease in our state. It is
 prevalent in New York and New Jersey now. Those parts of New York adjacent
 to Connecticut, such as Westchester Coun- ty and Long Island have reported many true cases of the tree disease in the last
 year. It is by far better to take any pre- cautions possible to prevent its rapid spread through Connecticut.
 The state is particularly rich in the number and the size of it's elm trees. Both New Haven and Waterbury have many : fine and beautiful specimens whose ages are we'll beyond the half century mark. To lose them in any way is catastrophe. But to stand by and to permit a tree dis ease to affect them and cause their com- plete destruction would be certainly ridic- . ulous. Inasmuch as there is not known as vet any cure for the disease it is by far : the sound policy to make a complete check of the states elms to remove those found diseased and to prevent further spread. Starting from New Haven and Stam- 1orQ groups Will Hldhe oyoIellldIlI Soel vey of the entire state for traces of the Dutch elm disease Trees that are be- lieved to be afflicted will be tested at laboratories in New Haven. Naturally the most intensive check-up will occur in Fairfield county where traces would nat urally be found due to the proximity of the New York regions where it is now prevalent. Any traces already. found (and there have been 36 trees positively identified as possessed of the Dutch elm , disease) have occurred in Fairfield coun- -ty towns We sincerely trust good thor Cough survey will prevent any further spread of the disease and the possible eX- ~termination of our elm trees, as were our -chestnuts some years ago.

Down But Not Out

: The withdrawal of Dr. Edward G. -Dolan of Manchester from the contest for the democratic senatorial nomination, -coupled with his announced intention of mot attending the state convention next month nor seeking reelection to the state central committee, might we'll seem to ln- ~dicate his complete severence of all polltl- Zeal ties. We don't believe that the ener- -getic politician-dentist is giving up the flight without a struggle. It's just case -of temporary estrangement. We can ex- ~pect to hear more from Dr Dolan in the -days to come.
 : His presence at the coming convention Twill be missed. He enlivened many of -them in the past, especially so when he -engaged in that delightful task of over- .-throwing those democratic leaders who reared not so much that the democrats won, -but that their own personal desires were ~gratified. It was in espousing the dem- -ocratic party as a whole that Dr Dolan -came into his own. It was particularly un- -fortunate that when he did come into -power he did not have behind him or -could not persuade to fall in behind him g -united democracy. Had he been able t0 ~do this he could have become the greatest --.political figure in the democratic ranks Tn --this state.
 The placing of his name in the race for -the senatorial nomination was not of his Town asking, we feel sure. It was more or Hess a determined effort on the part of shis many friends to win back for him the -.honors he lost when his internal revenue -.post was denied by lack of senatorial con- .-firmation. But we don't believe that his -s.services of 1882 will go unrewarded. In -due course of time the Manchester man -can be expected to come forward once --more as an administration official in some ..capacity. His retirement now from the -scenes will doubtless stand him in good -stead in the long run rather than permit ~him to fade into obscurity.

CHANGING YOUR NAME
 By Bill WhalOn

If you want to change your name you can do so. and no questions asked.
 If you're man, try the stage or break into the movies. Or, if you haven't personality, try an alias. It won't cost anything, unless you're a desperado. (John Dillinger didn't even do that.) And when everything else fails, try the pro. bate court.
 But what a break a woman gets. If she can manage to win a beauty contest, or if she can kill off her husband, or somebody else's hus- band. there's sure job for her in the movies. Little things like that go long way. Then she can pick name more classy than Brown, Jones or Smith. She doesn't go to court to have her name changed-not to pro- bate court. She goes to man. If she can't inveigle him into popping she'll wait patiently, or impatiently, until next leap year rolls round. Then she'll rope him in. And her name changes automatically. like the weather.
 If she isn't satisfied with the name she draws this time she nonchai- antly losses her hook into the sea again and fishes out a man with a name that suits her better.

foresters have planted seedlings of chestnut and of poplar. The poplar is Of a new variety, ex- pected to grow fast and simul- taneously grow big, be useful for reviving the wood pulp industry in a country where all good timber has been cut over.
 The chestnut is Chinese blight-immune variety which if grown successfully in the Ten nessee Valley will not only re- forest a denuded and eroded area but may restore the chest nut tree to the whole country.
 But it will be years before either makes dent on the com munity.
 NATIVE INDUSTRY
 Or, take the matter of split shingles. IVA, building the town of Norris, said to the architects: Why can't we use the old fashioned hand-split shingles-native materials, na- tive labor? The architects said they could not be procured in large enough quantities. But IVA tried. They advertised for hsnd-split shingles. They got offers for more than four mill lion.
 RESULT NUMBER ONE Norris homes have split -shingIe sidings.
 Result Number Two-A native industry has been revived which EVA plans to establish through the Valley under cooperative management.
 The zeal of IVA workers building new order" is con- tagious. They live for their work. Largely a group of col lege men-rrom Director A. F.. Morgan's Antioch or H. A. Nor gan's University of Tennessee, or from Brown or Swarthmore or Yale-they work overtime at a job of building new order which to most of them is a big ger job than building power dams at Norris and at Wheeler.
 For the most part the valley is with them. To ride along valley roads in car with IVA license is to be greeted with friendly gestures on every hand.
 And yet there is Nanny Mil- Ter.
 When Miller heard about the IVA program to move people out of the reservoir area and help them to a better life else- where, he got his kinfolk to- gether and wrote letter to the Brazilian embassy in Washing ton asking for land in Brazil in which they could settle, declar- ing: Were through with this country, where you can't be free no more."
 There are other Nanny Mill lers in the Valley.

In political circles J. Henry Roraback, Connecticut national committeeman, is regarded as the outstanding leader in re- publican ranks. A press dispatch speak ing of this particular type of generalissimo says "The successful boss is never po- litical accident, never a half-wit, or a stuffed shirt. He must have what it takes to exercise mastery over men. He usually must have, too, as Ware had, kindly, con- siderate heart He must have the will and resourcefulness to look out for his people. :. .'' It is no surprise to see j.. Henry ranked among the politically mighty bosses. He deserves such status. His rule over Connecticut politics was so long and continuous that it is even felt in these days when g.o.p. domains have been invaded by the democrats.

piles for the big jaw of the electric shovel. Quitting at 12, he rides to Norris, takes a shower bath, puts on fresh clothes in his dormitory room that is equipped with an elec- tric cool-air vent, and strolls over to the cafeteria.
 LEISURE PLANNING
 A quarter buys him a meal fixed price paid in advance for a generous trayful. He sits with his hat on his head and has no computations about the toothpick at the end of the meal.
 Strolling out he stops at the bulletin board. Notices invite him to attend courses in Radio, Shorthand, Bee Culture, Poultry Farming, English. His work is over for the day, he has earned five dollars and half, there is nothing else going on. He de- cides to take up something. r
 Shying at English and Short hand, he thinks Radio might be worth while. It doesn't cost anything. He signs up.
 IVA policy is full of the mis- siOnary spirit. But it is justified as practical, hard-headed poll icy.
 Officials reason this way: Here is the Tennessee Valley using only two-thirds of the electric power which existing private plants can generate. We are coming in to generate a whale of a lot more. We must in- crease consumption.
 How? By bringing in big in- dustry? No, that would make trouble in competing sections. By increasing domestic consump-. tion? Yes. But look at some of these shacks. If you put an electric washer in there you'lI never get your money out" COMPLEX PROGRAM
 Hence IVA is faced with problem of long range social plan ming to increase living stand ards. It's a big problem, yet not so big as the problem in the Pacific Northwest, where gov ernment power plants will soon be generating thousands of kilo- watts an hour on the forested banks of the Columbia river, where selling to the consumer | means that first, there must be consumers and, second, the con- | sumers must be electricity | minded.
 The Tennessee Valley does have the people. And IVA teaches Radio to Art Lipscomb so that when he goes home he can make living for himself on higher scale and be n good customer for IVA power.
 That is an over-simplified statement of what is really a very diverse and complex pro- gram, a program involving so- cial experiments rather far re- | moved from business eXpediency. Take the reforestation pro gram. It will be a long time before IVA gets this money back. On piece of bottom land along the Clinch river,
