still larger.

certain types of steel alloys. Molybdenum steels
are stronger and tougher than ordinary steels'
more resistant to heat and more resistant 70 cor
rosion.
They forge better, and in some instances machine
better. About IS per cent of the molydenum steels
find their way into automobiles in camshafts' orlVe
rods. transmission gears, axles, roller bearings, ana
other parts. The airplane industry also makes use
of much molybdenum steel.
TIME Importance Of molybdenum as an alloying
i agent was first recognized when a German
metallurgist analysed a famous japanese sword ana
found it contained molybdenum. No doubt 1t had
gotten in as an impurlty IN the iron ore SUCK useo
BY the japanese armorer.
The Germans used molybdenum as an alloylng
material in the manufacture of cannon and found
that it prolonged lives of the weapons. As a result,
much experimentation was carried on with the ele-
ment during the war and after.
In 1926, the industrial world recognized the I'M
portance of moIybdenum steels and they were off,
cially listed among alloy steels as the 400 series
NEOLYBDENUM is the only a~lloying agent which
wi occurs in the United States in sufficient guam
titles to meet the needs Of the national steel In
dustry.
The element never is found in pure form but
mixed up with oxides of iron, cobalt, lead, tungsten
and other metals. The most common form IS tnat
known as molyhdenite. This is molybdenum suiphloe
and consists of so per cent molybdenum and 40 per
cent sulphur.
While this mineral occurs in many parts OF the
world. the largest deposits are in Arizona, Coloraoo
and New Mexico. The largest known deposit Is az
Climax. Col. The Climax deposit yields about 80
per cent of the worlds supply today.
Other nations with smaller deposits which, how
ever, can be worked commercially, are Norway,
French Morocco and Mexico.
The raw ore is concentrated at the mine to .
mixture containing from rs to 90 per cent moiybde-
mum suIphide from which the two forms used in
~alloyiny Seel and iron are made, namely ferro-
molybTenum and calcium molybdate.

NNE thing can be said for
~ Hell Roaring Dick" Dickin-
son-he does not let principles in
terfere with his campaign for the
presidential nomination.
The big, numbering Iowa Sena-
tor has been one of the b~itterest
foes of the AAA.
Throughout the existence of the
New Deal, he has waged %unceasing
warfare against it. In the 1884
Congress he took a leading role in
shelving a group of Administra-
tion-sponsored amendments to
extend the scope of the AAA.
When the bill, in modified form,
again came before the Senate,
Dickinson blasted it with shot and
shell.
Throughout the II days that it
was before the chamber he was
in the forefront of the opposition,
eXcoriating the AAA, talking
against the legislation and giving
enthusiastic support to every pro-
posal aimed at hamStringing its
operation.
But when the Senate finally got
down to the concluding roll-call,
Dickinson ducked the showdown.
A few minutes before the vote
was taken he slipped quietly out
of the Senate.
Note-Explanation for Dickin-
sons Squeamishness is the fact
that the farm belt is decidedly
pro-AAA. Witness: The recent
"Grass-Roots" Republican confer
ence did not dare pass resolutions
condemning the Democratic CROP

wise"
Twenty miles away I went over
Project 83. Here was better land,
less poverty and hopeleSsness. In
the narrow valleys Of the 10000
acre project there were some
5000 acre of fertile bottom land.
Here the government would make
a great lake for both drainage and
recreational purposes.
But there still was some queS-
ton as to whether the people who
had lived here all their lives
would agree voluntarily to selling
out. Certainly those families on
the rich bottom lands would hold
back.
On some of the uplands there
were apple orchards. Here tiny
flower gardens frightened the
drab homes. People were poor,
but there was none of the starva-
ton and misery of the wooded
areas.
A T the side of the road a man

the running board of a battered

tough there that we come on back
here to the wife's folks a couple
years ago. And boy! I'm here
to stay. I can get plenty to eat
here"
The woman, born and reared
here, answered my questions as to
how the farmers felt about selling
to the government and moving
out. They're kickin' lots but I
reckon most of them, except those
on the bottom farms, will take
the offers. There does seem to be
a good deal of difference in prices
though"

At a dozen of these poor noun
tain homes we found the same
general conditions. The timber
was gone, the soil had been washed
away and there was no way for
these Ozarks folk to make a living.
They have to let the government
take their little farms they had
owned for generations. Maybe
the people would help them get a
fresh start in better country.

Here on 1900 acres of rough,
hilly land were scattered 857 per-

want to leave their own homes,
and the government promised
them they might keep their shackS
and five acres of land.
They could buy the ShackS to
use as long as they lived for about
a fifth of their value-small as
that was.
Those who sold and would move
out, the reclamation groups would

DIR. MORRIS FIsHBEIN-

UOU may have laughed over the antics OF the
i actor who initiated the nervous twltchng OF a
drug addict. But. as he pulled at ms nose ana
shrugged his shoulders almost endlesSly, the actor
was merely representing the itching sensations that
the addict felt all over his body, as a result OF the
heroin or cocaine to which he was addicted.
The old expression. ANTS in the pants revived
some time ago by Gen. Hugh Johnson. accurately
dascribes the crawling sensation which results not
only from the use of habit-forming drugs, but from
senile changes in the skin. or from a generahzed
hardening of the arteries in old persons.
These are two of many forms OF ltchlng sehSa-
tons some persons have all over their bodies. All
varieties of itching can be traced back TO tranSmls-
sion Of the feeling by the nerve endngs.
q e
THEREFORE, a general itching of the skin usual
Il " means that some chemical or toxic substance
is being circulated by the blood and Is affecting all
the nerve BINDINGS that convey the sensation IN the
skin.
Sometimes such a general itching is caused by
a multiple invasion of the body by the itch mite.
And it is known that mosquito or flea bites all over
body Will produce q generallzed itching.
The doctor can identify this type of itching by
the fact that 1t is worse at night and does not start
until the person is undressed and is beginning to
get warm in bed.
ONCE this general disturbance is not primarily in
- the skin. but in the nervous system, the treat
ment is applied to the body generally, and not to
the skin. Customarily. doctors prescribe nerve
sedatives to conditions like those resulting from
hardening of the arteries or from senile changes
in the skin.
Also. the hygiene Of such persons is arranged so
that they will sleep well and not be troubled by
worries Of any kind.
The thinning and drying of the skin that occurs
in old persons may be benefited by olhng the skin
in the most troublesome areas. But. as I have al
ready said, treatment of the body generally is more
important than treatment of the skin
There are also cases of itching confined TO the
areas OF the body concerned with the excretion Of
waste matte These are among the most trouble
some Of all conditions.
They are due sometimes TO infections. sometimes
TO parasites, sometimes TO wrong conditions of the
bowel. bladder or generative organs. In every case
careful and extensive study must be made to de-
termine the cause. if the treatment is to be salts

of the pivotal credit-cOntrolling
agency-the open Market Com
mittee.
This committee, under the new
bill, will rule the open market sale
and purchase of government
bonds. In other words, it will
hold the throttle of government
credit, the crux of the financial
system of the country.
AS the bill emerged from the
House Banking Committee and
was approved by the House, the
membership of this key agency
was made up of the seven MEM
bers of the Federal Reserve
Board, all government officials
appointed by the President with
Senate approval.
But in the Senate Banking
Committee a combination of old
guard Democrats and Republic
cans. led by Virginia's Carter
Glass. wiped out this clear-cut
governmental control.
The pro-banker bloc did not
dare go the whole hog and set up
outright private banker domina-
ton. But they did so by indirec-
ton.
In place of the Federal Reserve
Board making up the Open Mar
ket Committee was substituted a
milk-and-water combination of
the seven reserve board members
plus five bankers chosen by the
privately owned reserve banks.
On the surface this would ap-
pear a fairly acceptable compro-
mise-seven government represen-
tatives against five bankers.
Actually, however. the lineup
would mean banker control. Expe-
rience repeatedly has shown that
at least two of the reserve board
members always line up with the
bankers.
