manner. Cabinet officers come from all
walks of life, and their elevation to high
office and to seats so near the throne.
as it were, changes them very little.
AS FOR the cabinet sessions them
selves, virtually nothing is known by
the average citizen of all that goes on
behind the closed doors.
In the first place, the members of
the cabinet make up what Presidents
look upon as their official family. These
officers have been selected by the Presi-
dent because of his confidence in their
intelligence and ability and, too, because
he likes them personally. Therefore,
these bi-weekly gatherings are actually
more in the nature of social hour than
anything else.
Seldom is there a cabinet meeting
without good story being told. There
is plenty of laughter, Jokes are cracked
and nearly always some one in this
select company is "razzed" or kidded.
OF course there is some gossip every now
Evening star., 1935-01-20

These imaginary pictures are far from
the true one. In the first place members
of the cabinet dress, talk and otherwise
act like ordinary men. They do not
assume serious faces, gloomy tones apd
auStere looks, just because they are
holding such high Office, nor do they
60 around wearing high hats and cut
away coats and other apparel of a
formal nature.
Probably the general conception of
how a cabinet member looks and acts
is due to the Presidents occasional pub
lie appearances, when he is to make an
address, or unven some monument or
ofhciate at some formal function. FIRE.
quently, on such occasions, the Presi-
dent is accompanied by one or more or
all of the members of his cabinet, and
they, like the President, are dressed for
the occasion.
But at cabinet sessions and in their
own offices, these members of the PreSi-
dents official family are attired and
conduct themselves in most informal
Evening star., 1935-01-20

and then. In fact, the real picture is
better described by saying that when
the President of the United States and
his official family get together they act
and talk just about the same as any
group of men assembled around table.
The informality and laughter are par
ticularly observed in connection with
the present administration. The clouds
are never too dark nor the outlook too
gloomy to smother Franklin Roosevelt's
happy and fun-loving nature. He can
always laugh. He has to have some
fun. He likes good jokes, especially
when they are on him. And this seems
to be true with the nine men and one
woman whom he has in his cabinet.
OF course. there are some who are not
as jOcular or who do not laugh as readily
as the others, but the atmosphere of
the cabinet room Is the atmosphere Of
Roosevelt. and naturally it is infectious.
OF course, there is always some busi-
ness to discuss. That Is what they as
semble for. Very frequently this busi-
ness is of highly important and deli
cate nature. In this connection it might
be easy to recall the meetings of tho
Roosevelt cabinet Immediately following
his Inauguration. when all the banks
were being closed, and when the going
OF the gold standard was decided upon:
Evening star., 1935-01-20

VICE each week the country
hears about the President of the
United States meeting with the
members of his cabinet, but
only very few people have the
slightest idea of what cabinet session
is actually like.
Generally after each cabinet session,
there are hints and sometimes wild
speculation as to what was probably
discussed, but the real story never gets
out. Leaks are rare. Moreover, no
record is kept of these sessions.
AS matter of fact, these bi-weekly
gatherings around the long, highly
polished mahogany table in the cabinet
room of the executive office really are
nothing at all like what most people
imagine.
Quite naturally, the vast majority of
the people associate the cabinet with
silk hats cutaway coats, wing collars
and severe, thoughtful faces; faces that
never smile; voices that are cold and
commanding, and accustomed to whis-
pering. Few people would imagine
storytelling and laughter and joking as
being part of the makeup of cabinet
members when seated about the table
to discuss affairs of the world with the
Chief Executive.

MUCH ACTIVITY At
COLUMBIA bSN. ORCHARD

The crew whicr has been engag-
ed in picking pears in the local
Columbia Basin Orchard for the
past few weeks, completed the
work of garnering this delicious
fruit on Monday, and with a great
ly augmented crew activities
We're transferred to picking apples.
The Pacific Fruit Growers of
California, have the contract for
packing the fruit here this year.
Mr.. Hankie, who had charge of
the packing shed last year, is ag-
ain In charge. With crew of
about twenty seven men and wom-
en-, Mr.. Hankie put twenty seven
carloads OF pears through the
packing shed in record time
twenty-five carloads of D'Anjous
and five carloads of Bartlett pears
were shipped from the local orch
ard. This is considered an unusu-
ally heavy yield and taking the
fine quality of fruit in consider
alton, the pear crop should prove
a paying proposition iris year.
According to records of last year
the local orchard shipped out
twenty-six carloads of apples and
twenty-four carloads of pears. The
record for pears has already been
broken and it is expected that the
apple shipment this year will ex-
coed last years shipment by sever
al carloads.

SELF-HELP SUCCEEDS

The agricultural cooperative
movement is making rapid strides
among dairy farmers. The United
States National Milk Producers
Federation now has So affiliated
cooperative dairy associations, will
total mem bership of more than
100000 farmers distributed ovel
40 states. Their annual production
is valued at $25O,OOO,OOO.
More than 35 per cent of al
creamery butter produced in the
United States is manufactured by
cooperative associations. 4.bout G
quarter of the cheese is manufac
tured by cooperative cheese factor
les. And about one-sixth of all the
butter produced in iris country last
year was marketed by the five
large cooperative sales agencies.
Progress such as this--much Of
it made in the face of some of the
hardest times American agriculture
has ever experienced-is exception
ally encouraging. 1t indicates viii
lingness to work, to expand, tt
progress and to try new ideas or
the part of farmers. 1t indicate!
that the cooperative movement has
been the most beneficial influence
affecting agriculture in recen
years. ALI other farm relief efforts
may have failed or be in the pro
cess of falling but the cooperat
ives march on, a testimonial to thu
American farmers spirit Of indie
pendence and selfreliance.

MAKE BIG CHANGE
IN GAVE REFUGE
To Provide Better Chance Fol
Game; ii Counties Are
First Effected

Initial changes in a sweeping al
iteration of Washington's game re
fuges will be published shortly by
the state game commission.
Fourteen of the 80 counties of
the. state will be effected by the al.
|terations, the first of program by
which the game commission hopes
to devolve model set of game re-
serves.
The first set of changes are the
result of action taken by the com
mission upon recommendations of
Edward Earring, range manage
ment expert of the game depart
ment, who has spent almost the en-
tire summer working on the new
program. All reserves surveyed
have been revamped in varying de-
grees, some have been discontinued
and number of new ones have
been established.
For the new or revamped refu-
ges the game department sought
areas that were:
1. Certain to be heavily populat-
son.
2. In county capable of provid-
ing feed for anticipated game in
crease, particularly in winter.
9. So located that overflow game
resulting from protection will feed
surrounding hunting territory.
4. Bounded by we'll defined lines,
preferably roads or streams
Before the Inauguration of the
present refuge survey, one county
alone had 81 reserves, most of
them quite small and considered
trouble makers for sportsmen.
Within a few days game protec-
tors will commence posting the new
reserves, legal descriptions of
which will be published.

SEASON WILL TELL
WHETHER UNIFORM
SEASONS WILL REMAIN

Okanogan Independent. - At
termath of this falls shooting will
determine whether or not the Wash
1ngton game commission in the fu-
ture will set uniform hunting sea-
sons over the entire state, as es-
tablished this year.
The uniform dates system was
adopted by the game commission
for 1885 after strong advocation
by sportsmen. Last year the com
mission listed three deer seasons in
different districts determined by
climatical conditions. Many later
protested that game hogs were NOV
ing about with the open season and
taking more than their rightful
share of big game.
This seasons shooting opens Oc-
tober 20, and closes November /.
1t is known that some oppose this
arrangement, too, insisting that
variance of climate warrants an
earlier season In western Washing
ton and later shooting dates on the
east side.
The upshot of 1t all is that sports
men and the game commission af-
ter this fall can Judge the meriths
OF both systems, and the game bo-
dy then can act accordingly. Hav-
ing selected the best dates possible
for the plan, the commission feels
the uniform season will be up for
fair trial this autumn.

BIG BEND AND PALoUsE

Preliminary estimates are give
ing the Big Bend Wheat crop
mucr better yield than previously
anticipated. The increase in the
winter wheat crop of this region is
being placed as high as 3Opercent
over last year, while reports from
the Palouse country predict an in
creased yield from that section of
at least Is per cent over year ago
with some of the optimistic reports
running as high as 20 to 25 per
cent.
1t is further estimated that so
per cent of the winter wheat crop
has already been sold. Current
farm operating loans in the Big
Bend district are also said to be
down to the lowest point in ten
years.
