Special Long Distance Rates
Are Reduced by Company

Announcement was made Yesterday
by the local office of the Mountain
States Telephone and Telegraph COM
pany that effective January Is, the
Mountain States company will intro
duce special Sunday rates for long
distance telephone calls and also offer
reduced rates on person-to-person
calls after Z pm. every evening.
Within the last year, reduced night
rates on Standardization calls be-
came effective at 7 pm. instead Of
$3.50 pm. The telephone company now
announces that the lower long dis
lance Standardization rates effective
each night at 7 pm. will be extended
to include all day Sunday. This ap-
plies to most calls on which the day
rate for three minutes is more than
IS cents and on calls to many distant
points the saving amounts to as much
as 40 percent.
Telephone officials believe that the
reductions win make the telephone
more useful to people in giving a wild
err service at lower cost. Persons who
particularly like to call out-of-town
relatives and friends on Sundays will
be benefited by the new schedule
which offers both reduced %station-to-
station and person-to-person rates at
all hours on Sundays. The reductions
actually apply from 7 pm. every Sat-
urday night until 4:3O am. each Mon
day

THE VALUE OF MILK

Susie" said a fond mother, you
must drink your milk at school. The
teacher reports that you are exchang-
ing with other little girls for candy"
ooh mummy whined Susie, II get
so tired of milk. Why should drink
it if l don't want it?"
For many reasons" explained her
wise mother. There is a marked diff
ference between the beautiful, strong
white teeth of the young folks who
have plenty of milk from their in
fancy and the yellow, soft teeth that
many of their grandparents had as a
result of insufficient milk and poor
food.
my dear, milk is a very wonderful
fluid, and is the natural food of most
young creatures. Witness the calf. He
doubles his weight in the first few
weeks of his life. Milk contains cal
cium of lime, and phosphorus, which
supplies nourishment for his bones,
teeth and nerves. 1t has sugar in it,
which is often extracted. 1t is called
milk sugar and is better for babies
and invalids than cane sugar.
Milk has SO many uses that / cam
not enumerate all of them now. The
sugar supplies energy that keeps you
warm. The cream pads you with fat.
1t also contains minerals that the COW
gets from the grass and other vege-
tation that she feeds upon.
milk also conains wonderful prop
critics called vitamins. They make you
grow and keep you from having the
disease that the sailors call scurvy.
This used TO be very common on ships
where the the seamen had no fresh
fruits or vegetables for long periods
of time. If animals or birds are fed
on a diet that contains no vitamins
they become paralyzed, and unless the
proper food is given they will die.
Nov milk has some iron but not
quite enough to make it a perfect
food. If one drank only milk and ate
egg yolks he would not suffer for lack
vi AOIl dilQ WOulQ SCt oi ldAAy WCAA
without other foods. You will be sur
prised to learn that this white tasty
fluid that comes from the COW con-
tains a great many valuable minerals.
OF course, the amounts are small, but
large enough to supply the needs of
the growing calf, and of human beings
also.
"You wonder how all Of these ele-
ments get into milk. The plant root
lets took them from the soil and in
corporated them into leaves and
stems. The cow ate the plants, the
minerals went into her blood and
passed into her milk and thus obtain
the foods and minerals that have gone
through many processes before they
can be assimilated by hurnan beings. "
"Well, mother, l never knew before
what a friend to children and grown
folks, too, old Mrs. Cow really is. l
am going to drink every drop of my|
milk after this, and believe me, TN
never swap it COR candy again.

The summary execution of the Agricultural Adjust
ment Act by the United States supreme court is not re-
markable when one considers the antecedent lives OF
the justices, and the effect of their decision cannot now
be estimated until it is seen whether new legislation,
within the constitution can bring about what the AAA
aimed at.
The Herald is not inclined to blame a court for the
opinion of its judges, regardless Of what that may be.
Every American knows that the government is divided
into three divisions and that it is given to the supreme
court to pass judgment upon every statute. If the judg-
ments rendered do not conform to popular opinion the
remedy lies in amending the constitution or awaiting
the inevitable alteration of the judicial personnel.
The chief concern of this newspaper is in the effect
that the sweeping judicial pronouncement will have
upon the welfare of the farmers of the United States.
We have asserted time and again that American agri-

NEW VAN DENIED
DISTRICT POLICE
Officials See Possibility of
Breakdown Delaying Court
Procedure.

Policemen bringing their prisoners
to court on foot while judges wait
impatiently for them to make the
long trek from outlying precincts is
only one of the possible consequences
of the Police Department budget slash
ordered by the Budget Bureau.
The department has a van which
daily makes the rounds of the pre-
cinct stations to pick up prisoners
and take them to court for trial. but
it is nine years old. 1t breaks down
on the slightest provocation, some
times on none at all, and repairs cost
more than the upkeep of the ancient
vehicle. In fact, new van would
soon pay for itself in repairs now
lavished on the old one, but the
Budget Bureau nevertheless disal-
lowed the request of the department
for replacement.
Police officials are afraid the van
will some day get tired of it all. like
the one-horse shay, and fall apart.
The only thing to do then will be
to bring the prisoners to court on
foot, because no funds are allowed
for carfare 1t might be good exer-
else for some of the patrolmen and
prisoners, but hard on the nerves Of
the judge who had to wait while a
prisoner was being brought in from
an outlying precinct, police officers
point out.
The need for a new prisoners van
is one item of the special report
showing the effect of the Budget
Bureaus slashing of Police Depart
ment estimates which Police Supt.
Ernest w. Brown was preparing today
for submission to the District Com
missioners.
Maj. Brown said he would present
the report to the Commissioners next
week. He declined to comment on its
nature. beyond stating he feared the
department would be unable to cope
with growing crime and traffic prob
lens resulting from increases in popu-
lation and automobile registration
unless additional funds are obtained.
A cut of more than $4,000 was
ordered by the bureau in the police
budget, eliminating a request ap-
proved by the Commissioners for 80
additional patrolmen and items for
equipment.
