the government. This is a mimeG-
graphed one called Consumer
Notes" and is designed by the
Consumer Division Of the Nation

for its several score county con:
sumner councils.
Remarkably enough, i'll an ad-
ministration which has employed
a vast choir OF prOpagandists from

Spilling an occasional bean.
You can read how the Memphis
and Portland councils found them
selves tangling with local ice
/ trusts" ertrenched III power by
capacity control clause in the MIRA
ice code. And how the local con-
sumner groups studied and report
ed the codes effects and revealed
that the regional advisers to the
code authority, whose reports they
cOntradicted, were in both cases
found to be principal owners II

The intimati0n is that MA, as
a result Of consumer council Ell

competition ana reasonable ice
prices in Memphis and Portland
Consumer Notes also tells what
other councils are doing. exposes

for rather a hard ride.

singing carols under the windows
of Senator Nye and his colleagues
on the committee. But they did
send gifts. And greetings.
Members received copies of a
book on Russia which tends to
ridicule the Soviet experiment and
to indicate that the nation Lenin
made is largely a land of cock
reaches and haG or no plumbing
The author objects to the odor of
the Russian peasants.
And with it a spleasant note
from Irenee du Pont himself, in
dicating that the du Points are out
to save senatorial souls from the
evil principle of Communism and
especially from horrible belief in
government ownership of the mu-
nitions industry.
1t isn't the first time the du
Points have limited there was Com

NEWSPAPERS OPINION
THE REsURGENcE OF SPIRITUAL VALUES

In the midst of the heated debate of political
issues and, economic policies one is often struck
by the quick and Eager response manifested when
ever the discussion strikes deeper note, and en-
phasis is laid upon the moral and spiritual values
involved in modern problems. The modern mind
is impatient of dogma, but it is likewise tired of
husks and straw. Underneath lies a deep feel
ing that the problems of the age spiritual
than economic, and that their solution is to be
found in richer humanity, loftier moral earn
eStnesS.
We cannot escape the conviction that the pres
ent world is waiting for moral leadership. Men
are saved, not by what they deny, but by what
they affirm.

NEW YORK, June 20.-Another
ket today but, after an early sharp

GUS sections Of the list.
The reaction was attributed partly
to technical influences and partly to
bearish interpretations placed on the
Presidents share-the-wealth tax pro-
gram. The close was somewhat
heavy. Transfers Appropriated 970,-
900 shares.
Analysts pointed out that, while
Washington news apparently provided
little buying stimulation, equity prices
had been due for a corrective decline
in view of their recent substantial
advance. The list turned dull after
its initial spill and many losses were
reduced or replaced with small gains
The picture was frightened by a

bursts in the wheat districts. Cotton
was about steady. Bonds were mixed,
with Federal loans sagging following
Secretary Morgenthau's announce
ment he would sell on Monday $780,

highest bidders. Foreign exchanges
were quiet.
Shares of U. S. Smelling got up a
point and North American and Santa
Fe improved. Aside from Union Pa
cific, which was under some pressure,
the rails were only slightly lower. The
same was true of the metals and oils.
