A man had erected a pretentious

that he had inadvertently placed it
upon the lot of another. He consulted
youthful counsel, who, after days of

"You can go right on the other

WASHINGTON CURRENT
 COMMENT

So substantial and widely cir. culated a periodical as the Wash. ington Post makes note of the fact that one of its copies, forty seven years old, is discovered du1 ing the tearing down of a house in Virginia. Many details of his tory are recorded in the news papers only, and no pieces of printed matter is more perishable or disposed of more promptly than a newspaper. Even the publishers files are likely to be- come junk when publication cea- ses. It is suggested that a govern ment subsidy insuring the print ing of at least one copy of each issue on enduring paper and its preservation in the federal ar chives, would not amount to a misappropriation of public funds.

 Questioning concerning the Life and customs of the Eskimos was carried out by Senators Thomas and Frazer of the Committee. Suggestions, recommendations, & observations by witnesses were invited, and many of them had several important recommenda- tions, the paramount of which, appeared to be suggestion that the federal government establish a tubercular sanitarium for the disqualification of tubercular pa- tients among the Eskimos.
 Startling evidence in the form of testimony by Nurse Keaton was submitted. According to her observations & the testimony of the records, the percentage of tuberculosis present in one form or another among the native pop ulation of Alaska was: 80 percent tubercular in Southeastern Alas ka, Eskimos of northwestern AL aska 60 per cent, and Indians of the Yukon River area from 80 to 85 per cent-a startling example

]RGE VIGOROUS PEACE EFFORT ON LEGION
PRESIDENT CALLSFOR PROMPT
ACTION in REGARD TO CROP
INSURANCE, DROUTH PLAN
Latter Would Ward Off
Food Shortage or Price
Collapse

WASHINGTON, Sept. 81. (UP).
President Roosevelt last night
called for immediate action to-
ward a two-fold crop insurance
and drouth prevention program
to guard the nations farmers and
consumers against the danger Of
food shortages or, price cOllapses
in the future.
Appointment of two commit
tees to work out specific pro-
grams for presentation to the
next congress was announced in
letters made public by the White
House before the president left
for Hyde Park, N. Y.
Mr.. Roosevelt named Secretary
of Agriculture Henry A. Wallace
chairman Of a committee directed
to prepare a report and recon-
mendations for legislation provid-
ing a plan of all risk crop insur-
ance," and suggested that the
system provide for payment of
premiums and insurance in COM
modities.
The announcement followed
public suggestions by Wallace for
a plan under which farmers would
put part of their crop in good
years into a pool from which they
could draw on in lean years. 1t
would serve to keep SURPRISES
from destroying the price struc-
ture in good years and provide an
insurance" against crop failures
in other years.
Morris L. Cooke, rural electri-
fcation administrator, was named
chairman of another committee to
draft recommendations for a per-
manent land use program design
ed to avert drouth emergencies in
the great plains area.
Cooke, as chairman of the new
committee replacing a temporary
one which recently surveyed the
drouth area under his leadership,
was directed to report to the
president mot later than January
on a long term program for the
efficient utilization of the re-
sources of 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
formulated with the advice and
assistance of national firm organi-
cation leaders so that it can be
submitted to congress with their
support.
In his letter to Secretary Wal
lace, Mr.. Roosevelt pointed out
that during his administration the
government has helped farmers to
meet emergencies of two kinds
Collapse of prices resulting from
huge surpluses from which the
foreign markets disappeared and a
failure of crops in wide areas re-
sulting from drouth."
Measures of this kind should
make three important contribu.
tions to the general welfare of
the country as whole:
81. Production of the individ-
ual farmers income against the
hazards of crop failure of price
collapse:
"2. Protection of consumers
against shortages of food supplies
and against extremes of prices;
"3. Assistance to both bust
ness and employment through pro-
viding an even flow of farm sup
plies and the establishing of stabil-
ity in farm buying power"
