GUIEBAS WATCHDOGS FOR
CHUCKLE-HEADED TURKEYS

Always alert and watchful, guinea
fowls have a special value as dam
ger alarms ana safety leaders for
other poultry, particularly the rattle
headed turkeys. H. L. Shrader Of
the United States Department Of Ag-
rlculturo suggests that turkey grow
ers will do well to include a few
eggs Of guinea fowls with each in
cubatOr lot of turkey eggs. They
have the same period Of Incubation.
+Ihe guinea chick, he says. "is
brighter. more alert. II teaches the
turkey poults how to find the feed
hopper and the warm spots under
ihe brooder. As the two grow older
and range together, the young gui-
nea sounds the frst alarm when
strange animals or predafor hawks
appear. TO see a few guineas in
large flock Of turkeys reminds one
OF q motorcycle policeman weaving
ln and out IN crowded traffic"
Guinea fowl also give variety for
the table. and many consoles the
gamey meat q great delicacy

BOOSTING SURPLUS" INCOME

What does the thrifty family dc
that wants 20 get ahead in the
world? II studies how to save by
eliminating waste. II Il spends fifty
dollars a month for food a ten per
cent saving on price would mean an
Increase of $500 per month In the
family purchasing power.
The great bulk OF the average
family's income must be closely
budgeted-so much for food. so
much for rent, sotmuch for clothing.
and so on. II IS reliably estimated
that not over ten per cent Of that
income Is surplus" that can be used
for amusement, savings and similar
things beyond mere existence.
Take a family with an income Of
$3.50 per month. II L now has
surpIus Of $500 per month, that Is
ID ner cent Of rs income. II It's food
bill IS $4,000. a 10 per cent reduce
ton would add $500 TO rs surplus,
an increase OF 1915 per cent
Thus. a mere ten per cent saving
In the monthly food bill would in
crease our average family's sur
niusn BY one-thirj- more money Tor
that makes life pleasur-
able and secure, And when millions
Of families have such an increase In
their surplus, the total runs far in
TO the billions each year purchas-
inc power released for other uses
Tn this simple illustration Is
Droof Of the soundness Of merchant
disine methods that cut food costs (
by eliminating overhead ana middle
man waste.

Says:

Looks like the Chinese Dragon
is starting to snort fire again,
since two high generals Of the
Canton government admit that
their armies are preparing to
march against the japanese in
vaderS. We'll, that's news!
Heretofore, every time ] pa n
made up her mind, she wen t
through China like a speedy
Congressman through q stop
light.
Judging from her activities in
the last few years, apparently a
treaty is no more sacred to q
Jap than a campaign promise
to a New Dealer.
Sounds to me like q strong
case of superiority complex. ..
The MikadO'S generals believe
that China is Gods gift to the
Japanese.
OF course, I don't know what
system the NippOnese use when
they take a large parcel of land
from China without producing
a deed of some sort Most Of
us can't even get a bundle Of
our own laundry from a China
man without a ticket.

CITIZENS TAKE
DC. BILL TO
PRESIDENT
Federation Asks Him
To Save DeadIocked
Fund. Measure

The Federation of Citizens AS
ISOLATION today is planning to
make a last-minute plea to save
the 1887 District appropriation
bill.
Thomas E. Lodge. Federation
president, said a committee from
his organization would call on
President Roosevelt, Speaker
Bankhead and Vice President
Garner to plead with them to
break the deadlock which has
forced the Senate to give up
hope of getting a bill through.
Yesterday at the last meeting
of the House and Senate con-
fereeS, the lone House member
who attended turned down all
compromise offers made by the
Senate, thereby forcing the con-
ference into signing a formal
notice of disagreement which
will be presented to both houses
Monday,
Under the continuing resolution
proposed by the House, stripping
the District of all Federal contri-
button, cutting out the character
education item and prohibiting
District employees getting $2,40O or
more from accepting outside en-
ployment, the city is due to be $10,-
100000 the loser, from what they
would have got under a regular APP
preparation bill.
Senate conferees pointed out to-
day that If the House stands by
its resolution it will be up to PreSi-
dent Roosevelt to step in and
throw the Administration forces in
the Districts favor.

GROUP FAILED
TO KEEP PACT,
HECHARGES
MayNot axe FurIoueh
Unless Agitation for
Recall Is Ended

Furious because Of what he
terms a breach Of faith" by his
national executive council. Presi.
dent E. Claude Babcock, Of the
American Federation Of Govern
ment Employees, today said he
may not accept the furlough
which yesterday he asked the
council to grant.
Mr.. Babcock charged the coUn.
Gil with violating an agreement
reached at the Hamilton Hotel
late yesterday, in which it had
been decided that he would step
out of office, with pay, until
the Detroit convention Septem.
her IA, and in which it also had
been agreed that the council
would quiet agitation for his re.
call.
The council has allowed state
ments to be released to the effect
that the recall will "be pressed"
he said today, and added that the
council, in view of his resignation
submitted to the convention, had
agreed not to continue it's charges
until that time. He said he may
delay acceptance of the proposed
furlough and added that if neces-
sary he would "step right back
into office at any time to defend
myself"
Claims Agreement
The employe leader, under fire
for his famous Bulletin No. g."
issued to the Republican National
Committee and containing a vici-
GUS slash at alleged New Deal
"spoils methods" in the Govern
ment service, said:
eve, the council and /, had a
verbal agreement to hold our
guns. / told them 1 would be
perfectly willing that there be
public silence until the cOnven-
ton. / asked for o truce and
they agreed, but today there
were further stories in the
papers which gave statements
that constitute breach Of faith
and 1 reserve the right to de-
fend myself against anyone, or
any lodge"
Vice President James Burns, of
the Veterans Administration in
San Francisco, was to appear at
national headquarters this after
noon with a formal agreement for
Mr.. Babcock to sign, in which he
would turn over all facilities of
the national office to Mrs. Ber-
nice B. Heffner, national Secre-
tary. who would act until Septem-
Der as president.
The paper, it was revealed,
would give her full authority ex-
cept to discharge employees Of the
office. Babcock explained this
provision was inserted because he
believed the executive council
would bring pressure upon her to
fire some of the staff here"
Must ''PIay Ball"
Asked whether he would sign
the paper, he replied:
81 won't sign a damned thing
until they agree to play ball"
