WASHINGTON, Aug. 8-Here's
a fine chance for cross word puzzle
makers to make their puzzles more
confusing than ever.
All they have to do is to define
one Of those familiar little two
space blanks as:
"A two-letter word, referring to
a new deal alphabetical agency
There's no use trying to guess it
Ninety-nine folks out of 100 right
here in Washington couldn't do it,
even if they worked for the darn
thing and several thousand of them
do, too.
Even if you told them, they pro-
badly wouldn't know what it was.
Here's the word:
"RA."
That's familiar enough to cross
word puzzlers as the Egyptian Sun
goddess that figures so convenient
ly in those little zig-zag squares.
But the contrivers of puzzles have
got new definition for the word
now
The definition-to end fruitless
speculation-is "Resettlement Ad-
ministration." That is the new
agency which ReXford G. Tugwen,
undersecretary of agriculture,
heads.
For some reason or other, folks
have got into the habit of calling
it almost everything but the right
and official name.
RA reports, a little wearily, that
it has the shortest alphabetical
nickname of any in the new deal'
book
It is neither the Suburban Re
settlement Administration or the
subsistence Homestead Division
of the Department of Agriculture. =

per with worldwide reputation
for accuracy called it in two stories

Soon they will pick their way

Because her eggs have hatched,
I feel sure. I haven't been too close

ting and I heard some little baby
peeps and yeeps, so I think the
eggs have hatched'
I hope So, said Uncle Wiggily.

BERLIN, Aug 9.-Ever widening
and each day embracing new ele-
mentS, the Nazi drive toward to
tality" hit Jewish war veterans to-
day, and was made more severe on
other fronts.
Jews who served in the World
war have been regarded as in a
special category, but it was learned
that a shake up had been begun in
Volving the transfer of "non-Ary-
ans" in some branches of the civil
service, and that some "non-Aryan"
employees, eager to cooperate or
impelled by other motives, were
asking to be retired
There were intimations that the
drive against Free Masons, re-
vealed by the United Press August
l, would be completed within a
short time. 1t was reported also
that the Stahlhelm would be dis
solved entirely within a few days
and that this great war veterans
organization would be merged into
a general veterans organization.
Nazi concern over the known un-
derground activities of Commun-
lists, working in cells" of five mem
bers each so that a confession
Wrung from one member would in
volve the minimum number of 9TH
ers, was increasingly manifest.
TWentV-SiX Communists were sem
fenced at Stuttgart to prison terms
ranging from three years and two
months to four and one-half years
for party activity.
Nazi police began putting Cath
olic lay leaders into protective"
custody. Two troop leaders of the
Catholic sports organization were
arrested at Oplanden, in the Rhine
land, charged with posting anti
Nazi placards. The Catholic un-
ion in the Indinghausen district
was suppressed.
Jews were forbidden the use of
municipal baths at Cottbus. They
were banned from the historic re-
ligious cliff sculptures in Teutoburg
forest. The town of Struppen
adopted an official seal which bears
the caricature OF a Jew and the
notice: whoever buys from Jews is
traitor to his folk" Two Jewish
brothers were sentenced to Jail here
for disregarding a traffic police
mans warning and calling him a
"flatfoot."

Don't you want to come with us?"
Chicks Try Swimming
Thank you, indeed I do said
Mr. Longears. Soon the hen moth
er started out, but when Uncle
Wiggily looked at the little downy
balls of fluffy feathers more closely
he said: Why, Mrs. Hen! Those
aren't your chickens, surely"
Indeed they are! What do you
mean?" cackled the hen lady. And
Just then, all of a sudden, with tiny
quacking sounds, all the doWny
punches of feathers started to Wad-
die down to the lake. Into the wat
er they jumped and began swim
ming and padding with their web
bed feet.
"Oh my dear little chickies! Come
out of the water You'll be drown

who ever heard Of swimming chick
ens?"
These aren't chickens!" laughed
Uncle Wlgglly. You have been
setting on duck eggs and you've

lings! See how well they swim"
And indeed the "chickies" were
ducks!

er hen. Il love my swimming

And she was very happy after her
first surprise. So when you see the

ice cream cone I'll tell you next
