THE ROOSEVELT MESSAGE.

Again President Roosevelt in his customary clear style has given the people of this country report of his stewardship. Not given to flowery pohtlcai oratory the President in simple, concise language pointed to the actual accomplishments under his lead ership He frankly replied to those who have been talking about excessive Government expenditure with the statement we have passed the peak of appro- priatons."
 Explaining why he could sincerely make such an authoritative statement, the Chief Executive pointed out that 3l250O0 persons were off the relief rolls up Wednesday and orders have been issued for the remainder of the 35oOoOO empoyables to go to work. At the time, he explained, revenues, without increasing taxes, increasing"
 In other words the employment goal has been reached economic is general and, as indus try ahead, people going to work in private industry thus relieving the Government of much of the terrific relief burden Despite the great govern mental overhead to accomplish the purpose revenues, thanks to the Roosevelt taxation program, are con- tinuing to increase pointing definitely to the time when the deficit be decreased and the credit side of the Governments books again balanced up in keeping with normal conditions.
 Touching briefly on the agricultural policies, the President answered those critics of crop limitation with this query:
 wonder what cotton would be selling at
 today if during the past three years we con-
 tinued to produce fifteen, sixteen
 teen million bales each year, adding to our
 own surplus and driving the farmers of the
 South into bankruptcy and starvation?
 The critics wonder the same thing, but they don't mention it because it would not be politically ad- vantageous to their cause. They know the thing holds for wheat, hogs and other things which the Roosevelt policies put under controlled production in an effort to stiffen prices and bring back normal conditions The fact is that controlled production has brought results by putting some money in the pocket of the producer instead of driving of them into bankruptcy if the do-nothing program of the Hoover Administration had been allowed to continue. they hate to admit it. even though the farmers them Agricultural Act was the only thing that made it pos sible for them to continue on.
 Pointing with 9 natural degree of pride to what has been accomplished by his Administration the Chief Executive little further and gave ance that his program would be continued when he stated:
 The American life has improved during
 these last two years and if I have anything
 to do with it, it is going to improve more in
 days to come l sense the swelling of the
 prosperity spirit that spells greater help, deep
 CT happiness for felowmen. Every indi-
 vidual, every family is being brought closer
 to the supreme achievement through the
 Social Security legislation.
 There is no collection of meaningless words in that message to the people It is rather straight forward account of results, and the results speak for themselves The Roosevelt program has put this country back on it's feet.

Prom The Empire


 That Edward Krause was Ger man spy, and that the killings oi Capt. Plunkett, William Christie ano Ole Moe were part of the manipula- 1 tions of a dread underground mill tary machine, was offered as ten tative explanation for the existence of accomplices in the Krause killings The fact that KrauSe communicated with certain unknown persons ir code, that in each murder the dispos- al of the body or the actual facts surrounding the demise remain 8 mystery; that at least two of the men-Christie and Plunkett-w e r admittedly pro-Ally, added together gave a tenable cause for suspectine | this to be true. Also, it was discov- cred that Krause had been educated in Germany, and had continued his close German connections after con- ing to this country; that he core sponded regularly with Germany, that he had been known to express pro- German sympathies. Police add ed to this the fact that he had shown a lack of patriotism to his adopted land by forging his discharge from the army. In a country which although it did not yet visualize it. self involved in war, grew more pat riotic and militaristic with every turn of the calendar, these facts famed public resentment against the killer even more and made police doubt ful of the advisability of landing him at the public dock; this despite the assurance of prominent Juneal business men that they would regard Krause as an ordinary prisoner and allow no demonstration to be made.
 Three things seemed clear to the police who waited the return of the prisoner from Seattle: 1.-Krause was no ordinary murderer; 2-eithel an almost unbelievable luck or a number of trained accomplices had aided him in removing all evidence of the crimes, even the bodies of the murdered; 3-only tightly -wovei web of circumstantial evidence coult be counted upon to convict him.
 It was to weave this web that tht launch Lillian, mastered by Lyle Davis, dredged the channel for the bodies; that the government boai Peterson explored inlets and coves of southeastern Alaska in search of the missing Plunkett boat; and that po- lice, in Juneau, steadfastly question ed all known intimates of either Krause, Christie or Plunkett in the hope of finding some clue that would lead to an unravelling of the mys- tery.

SOAP MAKING TIME IN
OZARK HILLS OF MO.

Spring is soap-making time in the
Ozark mountains of Southern Mis-
souri,, and already the huge iron ket-
ties are boiling.
Half the farm women still make
their own soap, and even in the towns
many of the older women cling to
the homemade kind. The season
when soap-making becomes most
general is about the middle of April.
Soap, old-timers say, must be made
in the dark o. the moon or it won't
"make" or jello. Many of the Ozark
farm women don't believe this super
stition, but they always try to make
their soap at the prescribed and prop
er time because they don't want to
take a chance" on possible failure.
Spring is the time to make soap
because the black oak nd hickory
ashes from heating fires may then be
had for lye-making. Old-time makers
never use "boughten" lye. When the
hopper is fully of wood ashes the
maker pours four or five buckets of
water a day into the hope for seven
or eight days. The ly drips through
clear and golden as weak coffee. It is
the right strength when it will "bite
the tongue" soto speak.
The I've and grease must be cooked
slowly, sometimes seven or eight
hours, and stirred almost constantly
The traditional way to treat the
cooking soap is to dip in a chicken
feather. When it leafs the hair off
the quill" the soap is made" &C
cording to the old-timers of the
Ozark Mountain region.

NATURE HAS HER WAY

Nature is repeating herself. Last year
she brought the greatest drought in
history to the great American Mid
West, turned millions of acres of
rich wheat land to desert, and had the
laugh on the puny efforts of mere
man to control production.
AS if that lesson wasn't severe
enough, natre is again menacing
crops and dust clouds recently>swept
day after day across the vast Mid
West wheat contry. The area affected
includes over 100000 cres of fine
wheat land. The result, unless late
rains do the unexpected and remedy
the situation, there will be an incon-
sequential crop.
The Secretary of Agriculture has
removed certain restrictions on the
planting Of spring wheat. This is
expected cause rise of from ten
to thirty million bushels in the norm
al spring wheat crop.

SLEEPING SICKNESS VICTIM
DEAD AFTER 4-YEAR SIEGE

Pneumonia tok the life of "Sleep-
ing Joe" Higgins, IL, at Memphis,
Tenn, on April II, just as it appeared
he would recover from nearly four
years of sleeping sickness-or semi
consciousness.
His body wasted during the long
period he was forced to lie in bed or
reclined in a wheel-chair, the Missis-
sippi orphan boy succumbed at A p.
m. to the ravages of pneumonia,
which conferred in his left lung.
Sleeping Joe," as he became
known to millions of newspaper
readers throughout the country, en-
tered state of coma in 1881, after
he had fallen from a porch and brok-
en- his spine.
Physicians mad specialists first
diagnosed his case as sleeping sick
ness. Later they were puzzled but
said the conditions resulted from the
spinal injury.
1t is believed to have been the long
est case of sleeping sickness-or
state Of CONAN American medical
history.
Joe, who was living with an aunt,
uncle and his grandmother at Able
vile, Miss, at the time he was in
jured, went into an unconscious state
while in hospital in Memphil
Nvoember 10, 1882. He remained that
way about two and half years, when
he began showing signs of awaken
ing.
