CANADIAN RECOVERY
By R. o. McCULLOCH
Insurance President.

As YOU know, at the present
L \ time we have cheap money,
and there is a great shortage in
heavy goods equipment. With low in
terest rates and renewal Of con-
fidence, the stage is set for COM
plete recovery and the end Of the de-
preston. Great Britain is an out
standing example. She balanced her
budget and confidence was restored
there, with the result that there Is
prosperity in Great Britain, and her
unemployment has been reduced by
more than a million. Canada is young
country which offers great opportuni-
ties. Our natural resources are practi-
cally unlimited, and we have a virile
people. 1 am convinced that we are
on the threshold Of business expansion
greater than we have ever seen, and
that this will arrive as soon as con-
fidence is re-established.

Use Shotguns to Brighten
Noisy Birds From Roost

A shotgun loaded with black pow.
der shells which make loud noise
is recommended by the bureau Of
biological survey for driving birds
away from roosts, when their noise
and filth become a nuisance.
Blackbirds starlings, cowblrds,
and English sparrows congregate
and establish roosts, usually late in
the summer. Thousands Of birds
may gather in single tree.
Guns are most effective If used
early in the evening when the birds
first appear. Then they are more
easily frightened. After darkness
they move only few yards when
the guns are used. Shells carrying
No. 6 or No. shot and loaded with
black powder are recommended for
noise. Shooting into the roosts five
or six evenings may be necessary
in cases where large roosts have
been established. In smaller cities
and communities the use Of shot
guns usually is not forbidden by
local regulations.
Roman candles or streams of wa
ter from hose may be effective In
localities where the use Of firearms
is prohibited. Electric lights or bells
In trees where the birds roost often
drive them away.
Protected species such as robins
and purple martins sometimes es-
tablish roosts but do not become
great nuisance.

SILVER IN CHINA
BY JAMES A. MOFFETT


Federal Housing Administrator.
CTRONG international propa-
- ganda is striving to place the
Washington silver policy in the
position of running China. The de.
preston existing in Shanghai, suicides,
reduction in birth rate, floods, crop
failures and practically everything
detrimental which may occur seem to
be blamed on Uncle Sam and silver
My impression is that China, as a
whole, is not as badly off as many
would have us think. Generally, it is
in better condition than a year ago
Shanghai presents totally different
picture, suffering from the collapse of
real estate boom which was arti-
ficially developed when silver went
down, and quite out of line with the
fundamentals existing.

PARTY DEFENSE
BY JOSEPH T. ROBINSON
Senator From Iowa.

THIS administration is being
i subjected to intense criticism,
which is understandable consider
ing the approach of next years cleo
ton.
Our President has been charged with
everything from communism to des-
potism, and yet you cannot pick up a
daily paper that does not reflect rise
in the stock market, an increase in
profits, resumption of dividends; in
fact, every manifestation that tells Of
a. country bound back to prosperity. (.
1t is my belief that when history
writes its review of the legislation Of
this congress it will be made clear that
the laws enacted were for the greatest
good to the greatest number.

RADIOS FUTURE
BY GEORGE H. PAYNE

BY GEORGE H. PAYNE
Federal Communications Commissioner.
THE radio in this country is
Il practically entirely in the
hands of those interested solely in
it's commercial aspects. -.
No matter how honest may have
been the original thought, there Is
fundamental danger in the idea, more
or less casually advanced, that the
broadcasting business constitutes 0
fifth estate in our government.
1t is because the people, through
their government, will not tolerate the
creation of a fifth estate that they
have, in the exercise of their sovereign
ty, taken over the control of the all
and have passed the law regulating the
use Of the air.

BEFORE you take any prepare
- ton you don't know all about,
for the relief Of headaches; or the
pains of rheumatism, neuritis or
neuralgia, ask your doctor what he
thinks about in comparison
with Genuine Bayer Aspirin.
We say this because, before the
discovery of Bayer Aspirin, most
so-called pain" remedies were adj
vised against by physicians as being
bad for the stomach; or, often, for
the heart. And the discovery of
Bayer Aspirin largely changed
medical practice. a
Countless thousands of people
who have taken Bayer Aspirin year
in and out without ill effect, have
proved that the medical findings
about its safety were correct.
Remember this: Genuine Bayer
Aspirin is rated among the fastest
methods yet discovered for the relief
of headaches and all common pains
-. and safe for the average person
to take regularly.
You can get real Bayer Aspirin at
any drug store - simply by never
asking for it by the name aspirin
alone, but always saying BAYER
ASPIRIN when you buy.

SENATE CLEARS
DECK FOR PAY
RESTORATION
Legislative Instead of the
Appropriations Committee
Likely to Take Action

Hope that the legislative instead
of the appropriations committees
of Congress will handle the econ
omy legislation, including Gov
ernment pay provision, during the
current session of Congress was
expressed today by Senator
James F. Byrnes CD, of South
Carolina, chairman of the Sen
ate Appropriations Subcommittee
on the independent offices bill.
This recommendation, if fol.
lowed, will be highly important
as regards the expedition Of con-
sideration Of the legislation and
its fate.
Senator Byrnes' subcommittee
is the one in the Senate that
has had charge of the economy
legislation annually since it was
enacted, and since he is consid-
cred close to Administration lead
ers on Capitol Hill, it is believed
his recommendations will carry
great weight.
Would Be Helpful
In some respects the South
Carolinian's suggestion would be
helpful in bringing about i'm.
mediate restoration of full Gov
ernment salaries and repeal of
the remaining economy provi-
Sions, and, looking at the matter
from another angle, some believe
the employees would fare better
if the method of handling the
measure is unchanged.
On the more optimistic side, it
is pointed out that Senator Will
liam j. Bulow CDJ, Of South Da-
kota, already has announced him.
self definitely in favor Of restor-
ing the 5 per cent pay, effective
Immediately.
Senator Bulow's view in this
matter would be important if
the pay provision were to be
handled by a legislative commit
tee, since he is chairman Of the
Senate Civil Service Committee,
to which the proposition would
be referred.
Senator Byrnes, in making his
suggestion, asserted that he be-
lieved it would be better to turn
the matter over to the legislative
committee because that is where
it really belongs, and also the
appropriations committee cannot
give the matter the study and
thought that should be given it.
Sure To Be Restored
It is pointed out by those
familiar with the subject that
should the legislative committee
consider the legislation, and there
by be enabled to give the matter
thorough and detailed study, the
only possible conclusion that
could be reached would be that
the pay should be restored
Immediately and the other econ.
omy provisions should be elimi-
mated.

The eyes of the galleries were

and hid them. Of all the Congress
