Dried Milk Is
Given Out By
Relief Office

In addition TO direct relief Cam
County Relief board officials
Monday will start the issuance OF
S.400 pounds Of a new product, dried
skinned milk. II was pointed out
that this Is not included in the
present set-up Of direct relief and
that the new product is by no
means intended as a substitute for
liquid milk but more as a supple
ment.
Active supervision Of the new
work will be taken over by Mrs.
Myrtle L Galloway. home econo-
mist at the relief office. Complete
demonstrations Of the new product
have been given by Mrs. Galloway
to the personnels Of relief offices
throughout the county in order
that they may be fully qualified to
instruct in its proper and most
efficient use. The dried skinned
milk is in powder form in two
pound packages. A scientific rel
alive value for 1t has been worked
out in regard TO fluid milk and Is
included in bulletins issued by the
office. According to these accur-
ate calculations two pounds Of the
new dried skim milk plus two gal
Ions Of water will produce eight
quarts of liquid skim milk.
Included In the bulletins and the
instructions now given 10 relief
clients Is advice on menus and food
values. along with suggestions as "a
the proper and scientific spending
Of the STOOD dollar" The new
product is to be issued to relief
r. lies on the basis Of their size
and the local office is especially
interested in seeing that under
nourished children are adequately
provided for in the new arrange
ment.
Bulletins and demonstrations
from the office here are emphaSiz-
ing the importance Of milk and
proper nutrition for the relief
clients. One OF the advantages OF
the new dried skim milk is con-
Sidered to lie in the fact that IL
will maintain its freshness longer
than Will that in the liquid form.

BY NEIL CAROTHERS,


Professor of Economies. Lehigh University.
ISN'T there a popular song with the
refrain: I'VE don't know where
we're going, but we're on our
L way?" That song ought to have
been adopted as the national an
them by Russia in 1917, Italy in 1922,
Germany in 1882 and these United
States in 1888. In those years, re-
spectively, those four countries en-
barked upon strange courses without
any clear ideas as to their destina-
tions.
OF the four, Russia is least subject
to the charge that 1t did not know
where 1t was going, the United States
the most. The Russian revolution
aries had the most definite aim, the
most intelligent program and the
greatest excuse. This country had
the vaguest objective, the most mud
died program and the least excuse.
The Russians, it Is true, began with
an orgy of blood and have ended with
what is probably worse government
than the one they uprooted. That is
not the issue. They did not know
where they were going, but they did
know what they intended to do. That
was to eliminate profits from their
whole economic system and abolish
private ownership of land and cap
ital. And these things they have
pretty well accomplished. Their fail
ure to create a Utopia is also beside
the mark. They knew what they
wanted to try out and they tried It.
Not so in the United States. After
nearly four years of grievols distress
and tragic hurt there developed In
this country vast surge Of popular
resentment against an economic sys-
tenn that permits such miseries, q

mass demand for economic change.
This demand was blind, aimless, plan
less, without logic or understanding
1t had no philosophy. no program, NO
platform, no leadership. 1t has none
now. And the consequences have
been unhappy.
Shibboleths Abound.
The country resCunds with mean
ingless catch-words and slogans and
shibboleths that express nothing but
the vague spirit Of economic unrest
The Nation has talked for two years
about economic planning" If among
our more than 100 million citizens
there is one who knows what on earth
economic planning" is, he has not
made himself heard. There is the
forgotten man" Who is he? There
has been endless talk about the evils
Of the 'profit-motive," and one of
the first measures Of Congress in 1888
was to pass a law revoking the anti
trust laws, the chief restraint on the
profit-motive in our country. A
share wealth" slogan retains In
political power men whose income
taxes are being investigated by the
Government. In one State a mil
lionaire is elected to high Office on
a platform of soak the rich" 'The
more abundant life" has been a re-
sounding slogan over the land, while
the policies Of the Government have
been consistently to reduce abundance
in every concrete form.
1t is time for this Nation to take
stock of its condition and determine
what it wants to DO.
That fear is the fear that our civil
lization will be destroyed by radical
reorganization or revolutionary recon-
struction of our economic system under

this small army of unfortunate.
underprivileged or vicious individuals
be made less harmful? How can we
carry out the first requisite Of wise
penal system-namely, the protection
of our communities?
The system of discharge which we
call parole provides the answer. The
transition from the abnormal re-
stricted life in a prison to Self-sup-
porting existence in free community
is an extraordinarily difficult one even
in normal times. The purpose Of pa
role is to bridge over this difficult gap,
to adjust the prisoner in the COM
munity, to time his release so that he
may go out at a favorable oppor-
tunity with some kind of work to do,
with a home to go to and a feeling
that, after all. he still retains some
obligation to society, that he has not
yet paid his debt in full.
In these times of unemployment
this problem becomes increasingly
acute. Consider the millions of law
abiding men unable to get perma-
nent positions and then visualize. if
you can, the almost unsurmountable
handicaps that face the discharged
prisoner. 1t is out of no sentiment
for the prisoner, but with an eye
single to the welfare of society, that
we have in the last few decades
insisted that all of our prisoners go
out by the method known as parole
Sad to say, this system has been
subjected to grave abuses in some Of
our States. STORIES are current that
gangsters and desperadoes, who per-
haps never should be released from
prison, have been prematurely or i'm
properly turned loose and this Is
called parole.
We must be careful to distinguish
between the exercise of clemency
through the pardoning power Of a

would have to abandon all their pacts,
covenants and disarmament con-
ferences ind recognize that the only
thing that counts in the contempor-
airy world is force, the force of dy-
manic states seeking to expand their
boundaries and of static countries
striving to defend their frontiers.
They would have to see that the pro-
posals for perpetual peace come only
from the materially satisfied and that
they, themselves, pacifists in name,
are actually only profiteers of past
wars seeking to preserve the present
profits Of old conquests Tor them
selves and their children.

IF "TUNICS" to you mean long,
pull-over blouses, then we must
ask you to pause and consider
i this one. 1t comes from smart
collection of Spring clothes and
its plain, uncluttered silhouette shows
us what printed taffeta can be like
when good designer gets busy and
thinks. Here we have an outfit that
breathes of Spring. Tailored-yet not
too much so-the tunic shows the
high neck line, closing with string
tie. The short kimono sleeves toy with
the cape idea and a spreading skirt
puts word in for the Russians. The
usefulness of this blouse is literally
doubled by the n-the-front closing.
Besides being so new in tunics, it takes
on a three-quarter coat look when it
blows open from the lowest button.
Taffeta is not the only material that
Is being used for this new version of
tunic. Handkerchief linen and an
other linen, much heavier and rougher,
will be used in warm climates and
for Summer wear. Print crepes-not
limp, but resisting-are stunning, too.
These, like the printed taffetas, make
wearable, packable travel costumes.
Also they are styled to be worn for
luncheon, bridge and matinees in
whatever city you happen to be

The skirt that makes the other half
of this dress Is plain. two-gore one
of thin wool, crepe or linen. 1t has

the side seam and so is optional. Most
