 Rapid advances have been made by the government in the hand ling of air-mail. Since its inaugu- ration in 1918 it has become one of the chief methods of United States postal delivery.

Britain Sets Out to Make
 King a Man-Of- the People
AGITATION GROWS TO BRING RULER INTO TOUCH WITH FOLK IN ALL WALKS OF ENGLISH LIFE
BY MILTON BRoNNER


 NEA Service Staff Correspondent
 London, June 19-King George VI has hardly had a chance to get used to the "feel" of crown on his head but already politicians, labor leaders and part of the press have dumped into his lap one of the hardest problems he could have. That is, how to be king with due regard for the dignity of his high office and, at the same time, be in close touch with all classes of his subjects?
 The problem, long brewing in the minds of many, came out into the open recently when the house of commons was discussing the mone- tary allowances to be made to the royal family. None of the labor leaders in parliament uttered any republican sentiments, but the gist of their speeches was that they wan- ted more democracy in the relations between king and people. Major Clement Attlee, official leader of the labor opposition in the house of commons, voiced it. So did Arthur SICCL1WOV0, Q 4OAAICA AdUO1 OobAAACV minister. So did Morgan Jones. They all agreed possibly there was occasion for parade and fuss and feathers in such an ancient cere- mony as the coronation at West minister abbey. What they com- plained of was the adulation and the snobbery with which 8 British ruler is surrounded in his everyday life. There is too great distance between the palace of the king and the cottages of the people.
 Would Broaden His Friendship
 They did not formulate their charges, but as one who has known many of them for years, it is easy to put what they feel inta a few brief propositions:
 1-The king, who is ruler of all classes of the people, is surrounded too much by men and wmen of one social class, one monetary standard of living and often of one ultra conservative outlook on politics, po- litical economy and public policy.
 2-The erection of this barrier of the favored classes, which keeps the sovereign from close contact with

Stamp clubs which were organ ized in the local playgrounds last year under the supervision of the w. P. A. Emergency Educational program, will be re-organized this year. First moves toward the re- organization will be made the week of June 28, after the parks open, according to Miss Edna Harmon, director of the project.
 Last year the clubs were formed in Washington, Fulton, Hamilton and Chase Parks, but this year the program calls for clubs to be formed in the other parks, If the necessary interest can be created. The four clubs last year entailed a total membership of more than 150 boys and girls, who collected valuable stamp arrays during their weekly meetings and dis plays. New schedules for meet ing-dates will be announced through the office of the Emer- Rency Educational program. The extra sessions for stamp clubs this year will be provided because no time will be taken by the orien- tation classes which were conduct ed last year.

NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
FOLLOWING JoSEPES CROP SCHEME

We are told that we are now following the plan
in a measure, of that inspired Hebrew leader who
thousands Of years ago in Egypt, undertook to
deal with SURPRISES But there was no curtailment
of production, no reduction Of production IN JOS
eph's scheme Joseph had many strange dreams
but he never dreamed of destroying foodstuftS.
The central idea of JoSeph's plan Was production
and distribution at the right time and under the
proper circumstances.
We have u surplus in this country not because
of producing more than we need but because a
vast proportion of our people have not the means
to buy what they ought to have You can go INTO
millions of American homes, not relief homes
either, and you will find the housewife cutting out
the meat supply more and more days in the week
skimping here and there on food, keeping more
children out Of school because they are undernour-
ished While that condition prevails in this coun-
try feel we ought TO find some way to deal with
the matter rather than by compulsory reduction
of foodStuffS.
Let us consider this question from another view
point The able secretary of agriculture, Mr.. Wal
lace, spoke a while ago at Memphis on the cotton
control question. Mr.. Wallace is too candid to dis
cuss effectively a reduction scheme. 1t appears
that since we began cotton reduction and control
foreign nations have increased their cotton supply
by more than ten million bales When we adver-
tise to the world that we going to reduce our
acreage in any world commodity it eXcites other
nations TO increase their acreage, which other ma
tons are now doing. The cotton producer is in al
most as serious a condition now as he ever expert
enced. What has happened to the cotton grower
will inevitably happen to those who produce wheat
or corn under the same policy. Our good neighbor'
Canada, will put in two additional acres Of wheat
for every acre we reduce. Our good neighbor on
the south, Argentina, will do likewise with refer
ence to corn; and with our trade agreements open
ing our markets to this increased production
abroad, where will the American farmer finally
land?
Another thing which our candid secretary of ag-
ricuture states in effect, is that Americas share
of the worlds cotton crop continues to decrease,
we must make from time to time, reduction OF
acreage in order maintain prices In other words,
the philosophy Of reduction neceSStateS continued
reduction. Between the upper and the neither mill
stones Of increased production abroad and de-
creased production at home the American farmer
will not only lose the foreign market but will have
to fight for his life in the home market.-Senator
Borah in Rural Progress Magazine.
