One of the high-ranking features on our own list of radio entertain ment is now the Sunday afternoon offerings of the WATR Little The ater Guild. The progress that these players have made in the dif- ficult art of radio drama is lamost amazing. ."The House of Terror" yesterday afternoon was performed in a way that would have done credit to a group of professionals.
 Here and there. ... Climbing
 sn popularity with listeners is
 Gwendolyn Bourne, WATR
 songstress. A team that will
 70 ar in radio, i'm this pillars
 opinion, is the one made up of
 Louis Jannetty, banjoist, and
 Henry Schuster, pianist. The
 boys team together in grand
 fashion. .. What should take
 rank in the top flight of Con-
 necticut radio programs had it's
 debut on WATR at 8:15 this
 morning It's "The Early
 Bird Serenade," George Duffy
 will handle each Monday, Tues
 day, Thursday and Saturday.
 Lawrence Tibbett will introduce to the nationwide radio audience the two leading selections from the new Modern American opera, "Por- gy and Bees as a special feature of his broadcast with Stewart Willie, pianist, and Don Vorhees' orches- tra over the WABC-Cclumbia net work Tuesday, from 8:30 to 800 P. M, "I've Got Plenty of Nuth- in " and "The Buzzard Song" are the numbers from the musical drama which opened brilliantly in New York this week.
 George Geshuini has written the music for the opera which is a musical version of DuBose Hey- wards famous play and novel "Por- gy." This new production, dealing with Negro life along Charleston's famed Catfish Row, is the first real American folk opera. Gershwin, to- gether with his brother, Ira, worked on the project for several years with the distinguished south- ern writer. It is entirely fitting that Tibbett, as the leading protagonist of native music, should introduce the new work to the country at large.

Best Foaling Time

Spring is the most suspicious time
for mares, under natural conditions,
to produce their young, say the ami
NAL husbandry men of the Missouri
College of Agriculture. Weather Is IA
vorable then, the natural feed supply
is plentiful, and foals have time to
grow to good size before winter or the
natural weaving time arrives. Condi-
lions of feed supply and work require
ments frequently make it advisable to
have mares foal some time during the
summer, although summer-born foals
frequently have to contend with ex-
IRENE heat and flies and are younger
than is desirable for weaving If weaned
before cold weather. Fall foaling may
be followed advantageously if stable
facilities and enough feed Of the right
kind are available for the care of the
mother and foal during winter, and IL
the work program is favorable.

NATIONAL PROBLEMS
By HENRY A. WALLACE
Secretary of Agriculture.

TODAY, when farmers and
Il laboring men ask for a dele
cation of federal power equivalent
to the tariff or the corporate form Of
organization, or the federal banking
structure, they are in danger of being
met by some such statement as this:
1T is not the province of the court
to consider the economic advantages
or disadvantages of such centralized
system. 1t is sufficient that the fed
eral Constitution does not provide for
it,"
am reminded of that famous OBJ
servation by Justice Holmes: 1.-THE life
of the law is not logic; the life of the
law is experience" Presumably If the
experience of the American people sug
gests that the advantages of attacking
national problems nationally outweigh
the disadvantages, then sooner or
later national problems will be at
tackled nationally. Necessity is the
mother of social, as well as of me-
chanical, invention"

FooLHARDY PANAcEAs

BY HENRY H. HERMANN
or National Association of Credit Men.
IN THE broader field of endeav-
Il or that confronts us in these
days we must eventually find
growing responsibility taken by each
individual to do his bit for the better
ment of mankind. Here is the field
that presents tremendous opportu-
mites, but in our endeavor to promote
the happiness, health and the comfort
Of our people, care must be exercised
to avoid these foolhardy panaceas
which have taken such toll from peo-
pie throughout history.
We see the ranks of the unemployed
and many accept them as a permanent
condition. They do not realize that
half of the people employed today are
working in industries that did not exist
so years ago. Fifty years hence half
of our people gainfully employed in
industry will probably be performing
labor as yet undiscovered, perhaps not
even within the minds of the present
generation.

Baling Hay From Field
Found to Be Good Plan

Baling clover and alfalfa hay direct
ly from the meadows has been a salts
factory practice for the last Is years
on the farm of Charles Alderman of
Champaign county, Ohio, says the Ohio
Farmer. Last year he handled 160
tons Of alfalfa and $50 tons Of little
red clover hay in this fashion and
says 1t has been the choicest grade.
In baling alfalfa from the field d.
rectly he emphasizes curing the hay
more than when it is put In the barn.
Baling hay green will result in heat
Ing and spelling in short time. He
allows the alfalfa to get wilted we'll,
usually in half day after it Is moved,
and then starts the side delivery rake
and allows it to cure in the windows.
This air cures it faster than when it
Is lying in the swath and preserves
the green color and Furthermore saves
the leaves. After the hay is cured to
a point where it would do to put in
the barn, he shocks it and allows it
to stand another day, when it Is ready
for the press. Curing in the shock
takes more time but with large acre
age this is necessary in preference to
curing entirely in the windrow and bal
heartily ing from the windrow.

NEW DEAL AND COURTS
BY CHARLES K. BURDICK

BY CHARLES X. BURDICK
Dean of Cornell Law School.
TN VIEW of the emergency and
Il the consequent recognition OF
the common Importance of any
national program adopted to meet gem
eral economic and social problems, it
might be possible that the Supreme
court would now uphold congressional
legislation imposing as condition Of
interstate shipment of goods compli-
ance with rules as to quantity of pro-
duction, wages, hours of work and col
lective bargaining.
If public opinion Is strongly and per-
sstently in favor of changes and de-
velopments in government, a way to
accomplish the desires of the people
will, of course, be found.
In the United States, where the or
ganic law is the supreme law of the
land, the courts may delay, they may
to some extent direct, but they cannot,
in the long run, withstand a defined
and persistent public opinion.

Quail and Pheasants

Belief that quail and pheasant cam
not be reared together Is erroneous,
G. F. Thompson, director Illinois De-
partment of Conservation, says. Where
there Is sufficient food and cover for
all birds. the two varieties thrive to-
gether. The pheasant does not hunt
out the quail nests to destroy them
except where the tendency Is some
times exhibited under semi-domesticat-
ed conditions. The Illinois Department
of Conservation Is making deter
mined effort to push the restocking Of
the state as rapidly as possible, with
pheasants and quail.

Lespedeza Likely
to Be Market Hay
Ranks With Good Alfalfa in
Feeding Value; Should
Be Cut Early.

Prepared by the United States Department OF
Agriculture.-WNU Service.
Farmers who grow lespedeza believe
they have an opportunity to establish
1t as a high quality market hay-if
they keep it free from weeds, cut 1t at
the right time, and cure it properly.
They base their belief on the low pro-
duction Of other market hays-timothy
and clover, alfalfa, and prairie hay
for the last two years.
Last years hay crop was "a per cent
less than the short crop of 1888 and
30 per cent below the five-year aver
age, according to the 1884 general crop
report of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, which said:
"Drouth -. caused heavy losses of
alfalfa and clover and timothy acreages
as we'll as very low yields per acre.
Yields of wild hay also were very
low"
The southeastern states, where les
pedeza has become established only In
the last few years, mostly for seed and
pasture purposes, never have produced
hay for the market because of short
age of good haying weather and lack
of hay that will cure in few hours.
In fact, most high quality hay-par-
ticularly alfalfa-has been shipped in
by dairymen.
The annual lespedezas cure rapidly,
they are leafy with fine stems If cut
early, and there is little waste. Those
who have fed good lespedeza hay re-
port it ranks with good alfalfa hay in
feeding value. Lespedeza hay, to be Of
the best quality, is cut while in bloom
or not later than when the seed is in
the soft dough stage. 1t may be cut at
any time when 1t is tall enough to make
a worthwhile crop.
High prices have caused much of the
lespedeza to be harvested for seed
crop. The hay remaining is of poor
quality and not to be compared to les
pedeza harvested early and cured prop
erly. Lespedeza does not lose much
feeding value, even when rained upon,
but 1t does lose the bright green color
demanded for prime market hay.

COMMENTS ON

NRA DECISION
BY ALFRED SLOAN. JR.
Motor Ma pnata


TINE highest wage scale is the
L best wage scale, providing it
is not out of balance with other
factors in the national economy.
So far as the broader Implications
Of the NRA decisions are concerned,
am satisfied that they will eventually
be recognized as vital steps forward In
promoting sane industrial recovery.
Sooner or later we are bound to rec
ognize that RECOMMENDATION and Bureau
cracy have no part in our national
economy. They can only produce one
result-lowered efficiency, increased
costs and reduced standard of living.
\ We have also to recognize the fall
lacy Of the theory of scarcity" upon
which many of our recovery programs
are based. Recovery can be promoted
only by increasing productivity. Arbi-
trary and uneconomic increases of the
factors that make up prices penalize
productivity and retard recovery. EN-
ployment is reduced as well.

WASHINGTON NEWS
ITEMS OF INTEREST
Brief Resume Of Happenings
Of the Week Collected for
Our Readers

SPOKANE from the SMALLEST
county in the state came an engin-
GERS report that economic conditions
there are the best because II could
MT hire man to cut stove wood for
less than so cents an hour. G. l..
Osborne of Cathlamet, Wahkiakum
county engineer, here for the COM
missioners' and engineers state con-
vention, said, "That's the situation
in my district. There is no such
thing as an oversupply of labor. We
have had no one on relief who was
physically able to work"
Tekoa-Residents of Tekoa are
watching with interest, and the pi-
oneers with sadness, the destruction
of the old school building, which has
stood on the Tekoa skyline more than
SO years. With it's passing goes one
of the old landmarks.
Yakima-Seventy- carloads OF
lambs have been shipped from the
Yakima valley within week. They
were consigned to the markets of the
Midwest, principally Chicago. They
were fat and in fine condition.
Ritzville- eight per cent divi-
dend has been declared at Ritzyille
by the Marcellus Farmers Elevator
company. The company is free of
debt and has in reserve a working
capital of several thousand dollars.
Seattle = For 10 years Mrs. Ruth
B. Bell of Seattle paid taxes on wat
erfront property, including 10 build
ings. During hearing of her re-
quest for tax reduction she learned
that the buildings were torn down
years ago.
Olympia-Orville Smith of Olym-
pia and Elm Raunio of Aberdeen
have filed suit for $65,000 dam
ages in the superior court at Seattle
against A. w. Muir, vice-president
of the International Brotherhood of
Carpenters and Joiners, charging
SANDER. AS officials of the North
west strike committee, they were
called Communists and radicals by
Muir.
Kennewick- Unemployment in the
Kennewick district is no worse than
it was in pre-depression days, it was
indicated when a survey showed re-
lief rolls have fallen to the lowest
mark since federal relief was start
ed. The improved conditions are at
tributed to the large amount of sea-
sonal work here this year, caused by
the operation of new cannery and
an increase in asparagus and cherry
acreage. Many transients have OBJ
tanned work here.
Vancouver-It took two game pro-
tectors and healthy barrage of am
monia sprayed into a hole to dis
lodge a mamma skunk and her ba-
bies from their home near the state
game preserve on Burnt Bridge
creek, so the state men report.
When Protectors "Shorty" Immen-
roth and John Biggs saw the family
they chased the animals into the
hole and obtained the ammonia. The
ammonia was too much even for
skunks so out they came, after a long
wait.

THE IVA PROJECT

BY JOUETT SHOUSE
President American Liberty League
THE IVA is perfect example
i of irresponsible political and
economic bureaucracy. Its de-
clared detectives are, of course, COM
mendable and proper. but in reality
the whole authority is federally
sponsored experiment in state social
ism. 1t is noteworthy that no matter
how socialistic some of our recent eX-
periments are, their sponsors have re-
fused to present them under their
proper labels.
