Leaders of this plan are Senator
George w. Norris, Independent, of

system whereby state electoral
votes would be divided among pres

their relative popular vote strength
in the state.
Under the present system Presi-
dent Roosevelt, polling approxi-
mately 27,750,00U votes, received 523
electoral votes. Governor Landon,
polling approximately l6,680, 900
votes, received 8 votes. Each Roose-
welt electoral vote represents the
desires of 600 voters. Each Lam
don vote represents the wishes of
Z,Uo0, UUU voters.
Under the proposed amendment
the electoral votes in the last cleo
ton would have been divided: Roos-
evelt, 322; Landon. 1874; others, IS.
Even diSregarding the last elec-
ton, in the average election of the
last sixty years over 45 per cent of

joyed an income of $57, IT'S, 900, but
they were forced to pour $32, 2,211 900
into the Golfers of the United States
treasury. They paid tax of SO per
cent on their surtax net income.
One lone individual in the United

Congress resumes work soon;
what will it do, and try to do? How
will it interpret the 46 to 2 vote,
"all present" except Maine and Yer
mont; how will the unWieldy Demo-

lens?
1t will probably try to do what
ever President Roosevelt tells it to
do; that last election seemed to
intimate that the President has the
public's permission to do as he
pleases.
And that makes the situation ex
tremely difficult for the President.

Proposed Law to Mobilize

MYTH the approval of Secretary
w of War Woodring and Secretary
of the Navy Swanson a bill has been
drafted for the mobilization of in
dustry in war time. 1t would confer
upon the President power to draft
industrial management, comman-
deer manufacturing plants, fix
prices, ration the distribution of
commodities, and regulate or close
exchanges.
This plan is revision of the pro-
gram for industrial mobilization SUBJ
mitted by the War department to
the war policies commission in 1881.
1t does not take into consideration
the tax bill to take the profits out
of war" which was put through the

mended by the War and Navy
departments that tax provisions be
not so drastic as to hinder, hamper
or destroy the more important mis-
sion Of producing munitions as re-

Promised bY Wallace

M EMBERS of the American

sembled in Pasadena, Calf, were
told by Secretary of Agriculture
Wallace that the government would
provide better farm program than
the AAA; but he also said the
farmer must be willing to accept
"small increases in the imports Of
certain agricultural products"
In the cause of peace" he said,
"the farmers of the United States
must learn to say yes as often as
possible to agricultural imports
from Pan-America, while at the
same time reserving the right to
say mo- when any vital branch of
agriculture is likely to be menaced
by too great imports

Mr.. Wallace it's highest honor, the
award for distinguished service to

When old Mrs. Riley hobbled to
her door in response to loud

see two little boys scamper behind

huge basket filled with a generous
supply Of food, and many bulgy

A fever or a misfortune may
