tiOn Act which was extended by Con-
gress, by a vote of 400 to 9, with an
increase of $1,75O, 100000 in it's funds
was one New Deal measure which re-
ceived little criticism from the Re-
publican side of the House.
This action of the Administration
in saving the homes Of its distressed
citizens is generally recognized to be
necessary and beneficial
Under the provisions of the bill, as
passed by the House, new applica-
tions may be filed within 60 days

counsel of the MIRA testifying before
Senate committee has proposed to
scrap 1870 of the codes.
1t was the intent of the codes to
establish freedom of competition as
opposed to monopoly by eliminating
cut throat competition. Since this
was the purpose, codes should never
have been applied to the small bust
ness firms. Freedom of competition
has always existed between small
businessmen. The codes should be
scrapped as to the little fellow" but
they must be enforced in a manner
which will eliminate monopoly by
large corporate business entities, in
order to give the little fellow" a
square deal in competition.
One valuable contribution of the
AAA has been the development of the
County Production Control Assocfa-
tions which were adopted to aid in
the administration of the adjustment
programs. These associations with
local contacts determine in a Demo
cratic manner the just quotas of each
Individual Although they made mis-
takes, most of them succeeded in hon
estly developing justice in the end.
If the distribution of relief was
carried on through similar local or
CARNATIONS, believe that the greater
Justice and greater saving would be
accomplished in the administration
on relief.

Al few weeks ago the House passed
the War Department budget of $685.
00O,0 900.
This is the largest war appropria-
ton in fifteen years. The combined
army and navy appropriations this
year will total $780,, 100000, being an
increase of $3.50 over the 1888 budget.
At the present time when we are
fighting, within our country, great
war against depression and want
among our citizens, it would seem that
this increased war appropriation is
not justified.
The most adequate defense of any
country is in guarding and promoting
the welfare of it's citizens so that
they may maintain their self respect,
rather than its armies.

CHEAPER DOLLAR
DEMAND IS SEEN
Senator Thomas Tells
Roosevelt of Higher Price
Level Trend.
BY the Associated Press.

6y tuo hSSOClhIcu EIcoSs
Senator Thomas, Democrat. Of
Oklahoma. in an open letter to Presi-
dent Roosevelt today contended the
cotton-whea loan controversy re-
flected the demand Of producers for
q higher price level which could be
produced by cheapening the dollar.
He advanced three methods for
meeting the demand" for dollar re-
valuation, a wider use of silver or eX-
pansion of the currency.
Demand for Higher Levels.
1.-THE controversy in Congress" !"
Thomas wrote, must be interpreted
as a demand for higher price level to
producers to enable them to live.
The demand of cotton and wheat
farmers for higher prices can be met
by raising the general price level by a
further cheapening Of the dollar.
This may be accomplished by the
further devaluation of the gold con-
tent of the dollar or by a wider use
Of silver or by the expansion of the
currency through the exercise of pow
ers already in your hands"
Thomas told newsmen the dollar
today was worth sl25 as compared
with the dollar Of 1926 and added that
was the primary cause of the demands
for cotton and wheat loans to peg the
prices of those commodities.
Questionnaires Sent Out.
At the same time, the Oklahoma
Senator disclosed that as chairman
of one committee investigating the
silver policies of the Government, and
a member of another. he was send
ing questionnaires to bankers and
economists throughout the country
asking their views on the monetary
situation.
He said also he would visit Mexico
and probably Canada during the con-
gressional recess to make studies Of
the silver situation in those countries.
where the white metal is produced
in large quantities.
He said he did not expect any silver
policy hearings would be held during

NEW YORK, August 26.-On the
ev, Of the fifteenth anniversary of the
woman's suffrage proclamation, Mrs.
Carrie Chapman Gait, mother" of
the feminist movement, last night
called upon the women Of America to
keep up your courage"
Mrs. Gait, now rs years old, said:
Women are making their voices
heard in government. They are
studying national problems with more
intelligence and int rest than before.
And though these are troublous
times, I'd like to tell them-keep up
your courage and remember the world
has had hard times before and has
always emerged. Whatever is said or
done to produce confidence and sta
b:lity will hasten the day of recovery.
"Just now there is worldwide un-
rest, depression and talk Of war. But
If the future -ollows the example of
the past, when recovery is attained, I
predict we will have fewer problems,
fewer disturbances and a long period
of stable, quiet growth. Another war,
Of course, would retard that period of
peace and plenty"

some people are still wondering
whether I was the greatest egotist
alive or was just trying to be funny.
And now I figure plenty more will
scornfully accuse me Of seeking to
step into Will Rogers place. If
do put on the mans beloved old cow
boy boots, they'll probably have to
take soundings to find me. But
what nobler ambition for any Amer
ican writing man, even though he
fails, than trying to follow in Wills
footsteps?
We quit the paving here and are
off to the snake dance. Will loved
to go there, and maybe among his
blood kinsmen, the red Indians, we'll
find his gracious spirit waiting to
welcome us.

-Dissension among rightists and
leftists today caused a suspension of
all official activities of the World
Zionist Congress while delegates
sought to achieve an agreement.
Palcor agency reported that the
deadlock was caused by the insist
ance Of the Mizrachi, Orthodox wing,
that definite sanctions be provided
for in resolutions against the viola
tion of religious observances by Jew
tsh farmers and laborers in Pales-
tine.
All day yesterday and until early
this morning, group OF leaders
headed by DR.. Chain WeiZmann, who
is spoken of for presidency of the
World Zionist organization, conferred
with labor and Mizrachi representa-
tives in an effort to reach a compro-
mise. Although labor representatives
declare I'VE favor the observance OF
the Sabbath and other rites as a sig
nificant social institution, We cannot
agree to sanctions, believing tolerance
and not force can bring about respect
for religious law"
At a meeting early this morning,
Zalman Rubashov and Josef SprinZak,
Palestine labor leaders, addressed a
caucus of the MiZrachi to urge q
compromise so that the congress may

HAGERSTOWN, Md, August 26.-
Prospects of bitter contest for the
Republican congressional nomination
from this district were seen here to-
day in reports that State Senator E.
w. Miller of Washington County and
Mayor Irwin M. Wertz of Hagerstown
will be opposing candidates.
Observers, feeling the county elec-
ton pulse and casting knowing eyes
over the rest of the Western Mary
land political horizon, found two
other probable candidates and about
half a dozen 'possibles."
State Senator Robert B. Kimble of
Allegany County, regarded as one of
the two certainties, is not yet ready
to toss his hat in the ring officially,
friends say, but they predict he will
be a powerful contender.
In Montgomery County, Magistrate
Harold C. Smith of Rockville, who
fell victim to the 1892 landslide for
Representative David ]. Lewis, Is pic
tured as anxious to try his hand in
the congressional race again.
In addition, observers here say, at
least six others, including at least
two Allegany County Republican lead
ers, are being mentioned as amenable
to persuasion to join in the many
sided fight.

NETWORK
ENVELOPS EARTH
100000 Outlets Enable
One to Communicate
Anywhere on Wire.

NEW YORK P).-If you have the
inclination and the money you can
talk to almost any part of the world
from your own Office or home.
Today, as a result of the demand of
business for contact with its represen-
tatives all over the globe, 60 countries
and island groups form an intercon-
nected telephone system, with an esti-
mated 33,l00,000 outlets.
Over this system voices are making
love, transacting business and carry
ing on diplomatic negotiations from
Oriental Java to sophisticated Paris.
Horn Sold BY Telephone.
One high-pressure American sales
man even sold a new style Of automo-
bile horn to foreign distributors by
blowing its advertised dulcet tones into
a telephone with transatlantic con-
nections.
The telephone making a trans
oceanic call is plugged into short-wave
sending and receiving stations. In
stead of being sent out in all directions
like ordinary radio broadcasts, the
waves, carrying the conversations, are
"shot" at the receiving station on the
other side Of the water, where they are
amplifled and sent over the telephone
wires to the party being called.
This wide international development
has come in the short span of eight
years since the first transocean path
way was established between the
United States and England in 1927.
The last large country to come into
the fraternity Of international speech
was Japan, with over million tele-
phones, last December. Immediate
developments point to the inclusion,
in 1885, of Jamaica and the Domini-
can Republic.
Countries Unconverted.
Only three countries where the
telephone is in general use, are un-
connected with the worlds vocal path
ways. They are Russia, with SIS tele-
phones; China, with $4,000, and New
Zealand, with $4,000.
Approximately $4,000 trans-Atlan-
tic calls were made last year. OF
these go per cent were business and
40 per cent private calls. The demand
to include additional countries, the
American Telephone g. Telegraph Co.
reports, comes first from industries and
businesses that need more intimate
trade contacts.
The investment involved in these
international installations Is esti-
mated at between 10 and Is million
dollars. The American investment
alone Is five million.
