al growth of the Nineteenth Cen= tury did not take place under a one-man rule. If General Wash ington had set himself up as q dictator of the present-day type would have dispos- ed of him, because the world does not progress in that way. Ten years from now, school children will have to go to the dictionary to find out wha. dic.atorshin was. Tn times of stress, the world runs wild, but t. does no, become hopelessly and incurably insane. Surrvnlrrli everything

BREVITIEs

People run in debt but crawl out.
 A few eat to live, more live to eat.
 Loose fellows are prone to get tight.
 Work is the best yeast that raises the dough.
 The bigger the fish the more easily it gets away
 Some cities have the best judg- es that money can buy.
 Beware ot the man who talks ;oo much of h.s honesty.
 To real big man authority means only responsibility.
 Love resists competition. It gives all and demands all,
 Some old parents are about as welcome as some new babies.
 The unpardonable sin is the one committed by the other fellow.
 NO, penny ln the collection hardly counts as a wodn payment on harp.
 They talk most who have least to say. The easiest person to deceive is yourself.
 The sunny side of marriage is on the outside.
 It's migth hard job to find soft snaps.
 Phe only real friend you can buy is a dog.
 Browns make wrinkles, smiles iron them out
 -If sent by ship it's cargo, if sent by car it's shipment.
 Women, like chickens. have less on when dressed.
 P.tiable is the girl who marries only a meal ticket. ~

WASHING
 D CURRRANT COMMENT M

MT. Rooseveelt's fifteen percent cut in, federal salaries d.d not come as marked surprise to those whom it affected. Although it applies for three months only, the President has power to ex- tend it beyond that period, and the indications are that 1t will be continued, for some time at least. The measure strikes impartiaHy, from members of Congress all the way down the line. When one hears a government job mention cd, the first thought and often the definite conclusion, is that 1t is something in Washington As a matter of fact, about six percent of federal place-holders are loc- ated in the" capitol city. The pay cut will be felt not only in Wash ington, where the plums are sup posed to grow largest and in larg- est numbers, but in the remotest hamlet as we'll.

Mir. Hitler has been made the boss of Germany. That does not concern us greatly. We shall go right along paying our taxes and praising or abusing the President and Congress, exactly as we did before Adolf came on the German stage.

HOUSE SHOWS SANITY.

In refusing to agree to the Senate's amendments to the Independent Offices bill by which $3540o0OOO was added to the measure in the shape of restored benefits for veterans and pay restoraons to Federal employees the House demonstrated it's conviction that no economic recovery be enduring unless it is built on sound fiscal structure. Yet this is the same House of Representatives that few days ago passed a bonus bill that called for the expen- allure of almost s24oO0o00OO It is, however not as much of a paradox it seems the face
 In passing the bonus bill the House politicians knew that it never had a chance of becoming law It didn't and does not believe it will pass the Senate. The latter body has twice already rejected a similar measure The fact that the House bill provides for it's payment in greenbacks unbiased on attractiveness in the upper Chamber. But should the Senate surprise the House by passing the bill the House, already warned by President Roosevelt he would veto it, still the safe side, for il knew that it would not be possible for the measure to pass over Presidential veto
 Independent Offices bin the House knew it must vote it's convictions rather than politicians.

It ceased playing politics and be- came statesmen for the They preferred te sustain the Presidents economic program.
