Corn, American Product,
Leads Cotton and Wheat

In the days of Pharoah and Joseph,
we read that there was corn in Egypt.
But the corn referred to was wheat
and barley, not the corn of the western
world that we know, says a writer In
the Montreal Herald. When they
speak Of corn in Great Britain they
mean either barley, oats, or wheat.
Corn In the western world means In
dian corn or maize.
When white men first came to the
New world, they found the native in
dams cultivating kind of grain they
had never seen before; SO they gave It
the name of Indian corn; 1t was then
that our acquaintance with corn be-
gan. 1t is an American product, and
1t IS Ia the United States that corn Is
most widely grown. Three-fourths Of
the worlds supply Is grown here, and
the value of the corn crop Is greater
than either the cotton crop or the
wheat crop.
In the United States corn is grown
chiefly as grain crop; In Canada
it is grown more as green crop, and
converted into silage, as 2 winter feed
for live stock, w,'y-

On board ship time is divided not

Thus if a watch starts at twelve o'clock,

two at one o'clock and so on up to

Who Foots the Tax
Bill?
By RAYMOND PITCAIRN
G. ID. ARNOLD, Publisher
National Chairman
of the Repnbic-

They're spending lot of the
peoples money at Washington these
days. Experts report that federal
appropriations for 1934-35-36 total
twenty four billion dollars Count
'em-$24, 100000, 600! That's az much
money as all the combined admins
trations from Washington to Taft
spent during the 124 years between
1889 and 1918.
Who's going to foot the bill!
You saw part of the answer when
you looked in the shaving mirror
this morning. You saw more of it
when your children gathered around
the breakfast table. Whether you
know it or not, you and they and
probably their youngsters, too, WILL
carry the load. =.
Some of the politicians are telling
a different story. They say that the
average voter is going to get free
ride on that money, while the rich
manufacturers and big corporations
pay the fare. What they haven't told
is that no matter who gets the orig
inal bill, the cost is passed on to the
ultimate consumer = which means
you and your family.
That's what the politicians mean
when they talk (among themselves)
about hidden" or painless" taxes.
Let's see how it works.
Is your own and your family's
clothing costing more than it did two
years ago? New and hidden taxes
have been woven into the fabric and
charged in the bill.
Is the family dinner basket more
expensive-though no heavier than
it used to be? painless taxes" ex-
plain why.
But that isn't all. Hidden taxes
lurk everywhere.
They hitch-hike in your automo-
bile.
They intrude in your home.
They gnaw at your insurance
policy.
They help the weeds choke the
productive values of your farm.
They chisel down your pay check.
And sometimes when industry
boys down under the burden - they
crowd you out of your job.
You can't escape them = so long
as Washington continues to waste
the peoples money. And no matter
what the politicians may tell you,
they can't lay the burden on one
group or class, and expect it all to
stay there. Tempting as it sounds,
they can't "soak the rich" without
a cruel and unacceptable backlash at
the poor.
What the politicians can do is cut
down the reckless expenditures which
make high taxes necessary. What
they should do is run the public
business as intelligently and econom-
ically as they expect us to run
our private affairs. Let them try
that, and the tax problem is ON Its
way to solution.

left-Handedness Occurs
i'm Four to Eight Per Cent

There are various theories concern
ing left-handedness, some believing it a
matter Of heredity, others claiming IL
IL due to instinct or socially acquired
habit. The percentage of left-handed-
ness among normal individuals is estl-
mated to run from 4 to per cent,
says writer in the Detroit News.
Statistics published by the Journal OF
Heredity have shown that in families
with one or both parents left-handed.
a much higher percentage of the chill
dren are left-handed. Authorities have
told child behavior experts that the
nervous systems of lefthanded per-
sons are attuned to left-sided makeup
In which the left eye dominates. To
attempt a distortion of this makeup
by forcing the person into rlght-hand-
ed action results in throwing the whole

pugnaCious, seclusive and tending

the other hand, If left to work out
their own left handed destinies, these
persons are fully as bright as any
right-handed person. Another author
ity has shown that when the naturally
preferred left hand is interfered with,
as is often done, the general domi-
nance of that hand is. not affected by
the change but may be strengthened
, by this action.

Orb Weaver Spiders

Orb Weaver spiders are common
about buildings. Spiders are feared by
most people from a belief that they
are poisonous. 1t is true they have
biting jaws provided with poison
glands, and their bite may be fatal
to birds and insects, but most spiders
cannot bite human skin and the larg-
est forms seem to inflict but q slight
wound. The males of the Orb Weav-
ers are smaller than the females, but
the legs are relatively larger and
stronger. The males are often killed
and eaten by the females, but If the
male can overcome the female she may
become his victim. The webs of the
Orb Weavers are beautifully con-
struggled.

REICH MAY bEHEAD
TWO MORE SPIES.
Men Convicted of Selling
Secrets May Follow
Women to Block.
E,v the Associated Press.

Fly the Associated Press.
BERLIN, February 20.-The ominous
shadow of the executioner's AK fell
today upon two more convicted spies
held in Ploetzense Prison.
The two, who may follow the same
path to the block taken by Bonita
Won Falkenhayn and Renate Won
Natzmer, are men. One. 1t was
learned. is a former naval technician,
but the identities of both were con-
cealed by official secrecy.
The condemned pair occupied cells
near those in which the two noble
women spent their last hours. They
had no knowledge of their fate other
than the grim tradition that no
prisoner emerges from Ploetzense's
walls alive and free.
Several days may pass before the
official eXecutioner is notified TO
sharpen his medieval battle ak and
don his formal garb again.
Meanwhile the prisoners may cling
to the hope that Reichsfuehrer Hitler
will intervene to modify their death
sentences.
Tried in Regular Court.
Unlike the two woman spies, the
men were tried several weeks ago in
Regular Court. the sentences of which
do not become effective until SO days
after they are pronounced.
The star chamber verdictS OF the
dreaded Peoples Court, which con-
demned the woman spies, are executed
the following dawn or at least no later
than 48 hours after Hitler has de-
clined to order pardon or commuta-
ton of sentence.
The decapitation of the two women
continued to create national sensa-
tion today as the section Of the
ReichsWehr charged with antiespion-
age activities redoubled its efforts to
round up betrayers of Germany's mill
tary secrets.
The exact connection of the two
men with the alleged conspiracy has
not been divulged, but despite con-
tinued official silence details of the
events which preceded the execution
of Baroness Won Falkenhayn and
Frau Won Natzmer became known.
Parents Reveal Secrets.
The mother of one of the two young
women employed in the Reichswehr
Ministry. who we're sentenced to life
imprisonment for their part iii the
plot. betrayed her daughter when she
made inouirieS at the office concern
ing the late hours she was keeping
and the source of an expensive fur
coat she had acquired.
The father of the other ReichSwehr
secretary gave Investigators a clue
by cheerfully remarking at a gather
ing of Reichswehr officers he was
pleased they were paying his daugh-
ter so we'll.
Fraulein Irene Won Jena, one of
those sentenced to life Imprisonment,
it was learned, sold information to
| the spy ring only once, refusing
thereafter to be party to the con-
| spiracy.
In this respect she differed from
her associates, who were said to have
carried on their espionage activities
for a long time before they were
finally entrapped.

general in the Prussian army at the
time of the Franco-P -PruSsian War,
