A. Wallace chairman of a commit
tee directed to prepare a report

Insurance." and suggested that the
system provide for payment of pre-
miums and insurance in commodi-
ties. This is in accord with Wal
lace's proposed plan under which
farmers would put part of their
crops of good years into a pool
from which they could draw in lean
years. 1t would serve, he believes,
to keep SURPRISES from destroying
the price structure in good years
and provide an insurance" against
crop failures in other years.
Morris l.. Cooke, rural electrified
ton administrator, was named
chairman of another committee to
draft recommendations for a per-
manent land use program designed
to avert drouth emergencies in the
great plains area.
The President suggested the crop
insurance plan might be limited
to one or two major crops at the
start and that it should be formulat-
ed with the advice and assistance of
national farm organization leaders

100000 Build Road

With the laying of the last rail
of the new north to south railway
in China there was completed one
of the largest manpower construc-
ton jobs of this generation. The
line links Calais, France, and
Hong Kong, China. An army of
100000 coolies was employed, and
the railway has been built over
the South Mountains dividing HUI
nan and Kwangtung provinces.
The biggest task of all was to
carry the line across the River
Lei. A bridge of 1920 feet has
been built, it's II piers consisting
of 851 concrete and 600 Oregon
pine piles, brought by boat with
the superstructure from Chuchow.
This bridge has been almost en-
tirely placed in position by man.

Spanish Rebels Rush
on Toward Madrid

g EVERAL columns of Spanish
" Fascists and Moorish legion
naires were reported to be making
determined drive toward Madrid
under the direction of General
Franco, and the loyalists were fall
ing back at the rate of five miles a
day.
The rebel garrison of the Alcazar
in Toledo was still holding out
though the government forces, after
dynamiting part of the old fortress,
made attacks with flaming gasoline.
The defenders lost heavily but the
survivors kept up their deadly ma
chine gun fire and repulsed the
charges of the loyalists. This he
roic garrison had been holding the
fort for nine weeks.
A Barcelona newspaper, official
organ of the National Workers fed
Grafton, alleges that an Italian die
tatorship has been set up on the
Spanish island of Mallorca; that an
Italian military force under Lieu
tenant Rossi has taken over full
control of the islands government
with connivance of the Fascists,
and that the Italian flag was flying
alongside the banner of the insur-
gents. 1t was said in Madrid that
the Spanish government would pro-
test to the League of Nations
against the alleged support CIV
en- the rebels by Italy, Germany and
Portugal.
The American State department
ordered the embassy in Madrid
closed and warned all Americans
still in the capital that they re-
manned at their own risk. The
consulate at Malaga also was closed
and the consul took refuge in Gil
braltar. Diplomats of Is nations,
who had gone to Saint Jean de Luz,
France, rejected the Spanish gov
ernment's demand that they return
to Madrid

sively accepts the support of alien
organizations hostile to the Arneri-
can form of government.
'Such articles are conceived in
malice and born of political spite.
They are deliberately framed to
give a false impression, in other
words to frame the American
people.
1.-THE President does not want and
does not welcome the vote or sup
port of any individual or group TAX
ing orders from alien sources.
This simple fact is, of course, OBJ
vious.
'The American people will not
permit their attention to be diverted
from real issues to fake issues
which no patriotic, honorable, de-
cent citizen would purposely inject
into American affairs"
Mr.. Hearst, who was in Amster-
dam, promptly replied by cable,
saying in part:
1.-THE President has issued state
ment through a secretary. He has
not had the frankness to say to
whom he refers in the statement
I think I am justified in as
Stunning that I am the object of the
statement, and that I may cour-
teously endeavor to correct Mr..
Roosevelt's miscellaneous and to
set him right
LET me say that I have not stated
at any time whether the President
willingly or unwilling received the
support of the Karl Marx Socialists,
the Frankfurter radicals, commu-
nists and anarchists, the Tugwel
bolsheviks, and the Richberg rev.
olutionists which constitute the bulk
of his following.

that he does receive the support of
these enemies of the American sys-
tenn of government, and that he has
done his best to deserve the support
of all such disturbing and destruc-
tive elements"

A COLLEGE DEAN said recent
"a ly that being sophisticated is

A COLLEGE DEAN said recent
"A ly that being sophisticated is
going out of fashion.
Can it be true that the craze for
sophistication-to appear blase, to
seem worldly wise, to know it
all. to be hard-boiled and con-
temptuous of the simple things
can it be true that modern youth
is through with it?
And why? Is the advent of old
fashioned hats and ruffles so in
fuencing our point of view that
modern youth now wants to throw
sophistication into the discard?
I think I know the reason, says
a woman writer of international
reputation. Modern Youth must
have found out the real meaning
of the word. Porting over their
dictionaries they must have &C
cidently bumped into the deriva-
ton of Sophisticated"
For Sophisticated" m ans
adulterated. Look it up and see
if it doesn't!
And come to think of it, it
couldn't have a better name. If
the wisest of us had tried to put
a fitting label on that loss of
youths natural and beautiful
freshness - if a genius had tried
to express that warping of stand
ards, that tainting of taste, that
souring of outlook, that premature
aging of all the sensibilities he
could have manufactured no
better word than Sophisticated" "
For sophistication is an adulter-
alton of viewpoint, of judgment,
of taste by the faint of frustra-
ton, the bitterness of disillusion-
ment, the poison of ldisappoint-
ment, the dregs of the cup of
poor experience. True, life is not
all beauty or joy or perfection.

Wilbur M. Brucker, and there is
more than a suspicion that he knew
his fate beforehand. Brucker, who
is only forty-two years old, has been
in public life for almost twenty
years. The Republicans re-nomi-
mated Frank D. Fitzgerald for the
governorship.
On the Democratic side Repre-

the senatorial nomination against
Louis B. Ward who was supported
by Father Coughlin. For governor
they chose Frank Murphy, high

Roosevelt supporters.

Hooked Fish

Fish do not seem to suffer much
when they are hooked. About the
jaw there are few nerves which
could cause the sensation of pain.
Some trout have been known to be
hooked two or three times in the
same day, the fisherman using
the same type of bait.
Fish, no doubt, have a sensation
of discomfort, but not as great as
that of the higher animals. In gen.
eral,. a fish must feel some pain on
some parts of the body, but has
few nerves around the mouth,
where it is apt to be hooked.

Open Conventions
" ETERANS of the World war and
' of the Civil war opened their
annual gatherings, the American
Legion in Cleveland and the Grand
Army of the Republic in Washing
ton. The Legionnaires, many thou
sands of them, started off with the
dedication of the Peace Gardens in
the Ohio city, for which soil had
been brought from sacred shrines
of foreign countries and the forty
eight states. National Commander
Ray Murphy presided over an i'm
pl essive ceremony and unveiled a
memorial plaque bearing the in
scription:
"These gardens, planned by men
who know the horrors of war, were
dedicated to the brotherhood of man
and peace throughout the world
Commander Murphy in his annual
report said: whether our country
shall be spared participation in an
other great international conf1agra-
ton may well depend upon our cour-
age as Legionnaires to stand up and
demand that our government now
take the steps which may save us,
without the loss of honor-a sacri-
flee we are unwilling to make at
any cost"
Only about nine hundred surviv-
ors of the Union army were able to
attend the G. A. R. encampment,
and many believe it will be the last
tc be held. The aged warriors,
headed by Obey Nelson of Iowa, the
national commander, began their
proceedings with service in Wash
ington cathedral. The route of their
parade was six blocks on Pennsyl-
vania avenue, the scene of the grand
review of the Union armies before
President Andrew Johnson seventy
one years ago.

Those Embittered by Disappointment

Neither is it all bitter or sour or

One of the most powerful weap-
ons in the hands of youth is its
freshness, its faith to write on
its own slate only beauty and
perfection. And when youth pre-
maturely dons the soiled and
shabby mantle of those who have
known disappointment and fail
ure, it does right to call this by
the name "sophistication'' - a
