took the coordination of sun,
wind, rain and manual labor to
bring about such a fine speci-
men. It brings to mind the ad-
ventures OF some of the young
set this summer who often went
in small groups to nearby fields
ito hear the corn grow.
Whether that was an audible IL
lusion or not, the warm summer
evenings are conducive to
growth and many farmers have
said the corn gains such height
in such short time, one can see
and hear it grow. II, perhaps,
was just another way for the
present generation to amuse
themselves.

however, are reported to be in dis
favor with the workers because they
feel the result would be inadequate
payments.
At the same time, however, 1t was
indicated that no retirement legisla-
ton that might be expected to entail
additional cost will be looked on with
favor by the administration, particu-
larly In view of the current move
toward reducing expenditures. This
same argument against increased
costs, however, was put forth several
months ago by Representative Rams
peck, Democrat. OF Georgia, chairman
Of the House Civil Service Commit
tee, who said Congress would oppose
adding to the retirement load.
The Civil Service Commission has
not disclosed what personnel improve
ments were embodied in the report to
the White House, which was taken up
with the President for the first time

mended, however, with the qualiflca-
ton that it would not entail added
expenditure and otherwise conform to
