A Book a Day
A Woman's Story of Newspapering
 RY RRJTCE CAPTION

The reporters have been shower ing down books in the last year, most of them very creditable read ing. But the feminine viewpoint has been entirely lacking. Now comes Irene Kuhn to correct this and the result is Assigned to Ad- venture" Dippincott: $0.
 For Irene Kuhn, who got her first assignment asking the men of Syracuse, N. Y, whether they wore old-fashioned night shirts or pajamas, has been around the world and back after news. She covered Paris with Floyd Gib- bons, moved on next to Shanghai, Hawaii and back to New York. She found it 8 great business meeting so many interesting peo- pie" and she proceeds to make the most of 1t in her autobiography.
 But Irene Kuhn was more than 8 reporter. In China she met rov- ing writer Bert Kuhn, was mar ried, bore a baby girl. Not long after, Kuhn died mysteriously. So his widow faced the world with the double job of doing the daily reportorial stint and rearing a daughter as well. She did it, somehow, and managed to cover very capably such major news events as the Lindbergh trial and the Moro Castle disaster.
 And today Irene's daughter looks ahead to a newspaper career of her own. So the picture painted is as human yarn as the news paper profession has had in a long time.-P. c, r.

The Hartford Courant says editorially regarding the Church in Austria: "The firmness with which the churches of Germany both Catholic and Protestant, have stood up against the excesses of Nazism there has been a major element in preventing the organization of whole nation. The resistance of Austria will be no less firm, and in resisting the Church will be serving not merely it's own ends but the ends of civilization" A country has to be strong in it's religious beliefs when up against it as has been the case of many living in Germany and now Austria, who, since the taking over by Hitler, have found that personal liberty and freedom of thought are not to be tolerated for Jew, Catholic, or other Christian.

HARTFORD TIMES

cream sold outside the State did not keep pace with the increased pro- duction. The making of butter dropped quite noticeably below the ten-year average. These three forms of sale account for three fourths of total production. The question is what can be done to in- crease the sales in milk, cream or butter, and perhaps in new forms of outlet?
 Obviously, Vermont must sell much of it's product outside of its own borders. It produces 36 per cent of all the milk produced in New England but has only A per cent of the population. It has more COWS than humans. But it's repu- tation as a dairy state is par excel lence. The average butterfat con- tent of it's milk is per cent.
 Combining all forms of milk by products, the investigators found that 1t was in this field that the best prospects exist for increased sale. They estimate that an in- crease of $1,000,000 to $2,000,00 is possible to Vermont dairymen If more of the surplus milk is used in the making of fine quality cheese, butter and sweet cream and the skinned milk is fed to pigs.
 It has caught the attention of the commission that Maine producers were taking away part of the Yer mont market in the Boston area. II also paid attention to the fact that while in 1922 Boston received no cream from west of Pennsylvania, by 1929 one-fourth cf It's cream i'm ports came from the West. Yer monters mean to pit their product against the imports.
 The commission is quite justified in believing that the States repu- tation for quality justifies 1t in turning this sentiment into profit for ourselves" by turning out high grade products through utilizing its surplus milk in the manufacture of by-products that will command a market because of their high qual-

INCIDENT IN MICHIGAN (NeW York TimeS)

On Friday of last week the Utility Workers Organizing Committee - a c. I. O. affiliate--took possession of thirteen power plants in Michigan, busted the foremen and the super visors, and settled down to hold the property which 1t had seized until it's terms were met. Having forced by these tactics of polite revolution what it deems to be a sufficient con- cession on the part of the employer the union now consents to hand back the property to it's owners. Temporarily, at least
 The National Labor Relations Board will now proceed to investi- gate at once the unions charge that there exists in these power plants a rival organization which can properly be described as com- pany-dominated union. But will the National Labor Relations Board also proceed to investigate the outright seizure by the c. I. O. of property to which it had no title? Certainly not. It is a violation of the Wagner Act, and a repudiation of the principles of collective bargaining, for an en- ployer to dominate" union even to the extent of giving the slightest support of it. But 1t is no violation of the Wagner Act at all, and per- fectly good collective bargaining" so far as that statute is concerned, for union to seize somebody else's property, lock the gates, and hold over the head of community of a million people the threat of sud- den Interruption of an essential service like the distribution of elec- tric power.
 Questions are sometimes asked on the floor of the senate as to why the Wagner Act is regarded as 8 one sided measure.

Hulls aide, was thunderstruck. For this matter the Cabinet now wanted to protest was something the United States previously had persuaded the Japanese to do- and it had had rather hard time persuading them.
 HOWEVER, Dunn didn't like to make his chief look ridiculous by telling him that, so he replied that everyone had left the State Department and the note would be taken up in the morning.
 Meanwhile he telephoned Admiral Standley and sug- gested that he Automatically straighten out the Secretary of the Navy on the fact that the Japanese had only done what the United States had asked, and that there was nothing to protest about.
 so, despite the belligerent in- structions of the Cabinet, no note ever was written.
 Outlived Rival
 Secretary Swanson does not hold press conferences often now, and for a very good reason. Last winter he made a rash statement about U. s. plans for building beyond treaty limits. The news papermen had left and were about to file their stories when they were called back. The Ad- mirals had demonstrated with their chief and the story was killed.
 Swansons relations with the press are excellent, however. He loves to see the Navy publicized, and when a neWspaperman gets the run-around from press-shy Admirals, he can usually go to Swanson and get the story. For himself, Claude Augustus shuns publicity.
 Though the Secretary of the Navy is sick and, at 76, the old est man in the Cabinet, he has outlived the one who intended to supplant him. Swanson had fallen in his bath, broken rib and nearly died from the en- suing complications. (JOsephus Daniels, Secretary of the Navy under Wilson, also broke rib from falling in his bath.)
 During Swanson's illness, Henry Latrobe Roosevelt, Assistant Sec retary of the Navy, began putting his own house in order to take over the Secretaryship. He and Swanson had not teamed well to- gether and he had his own ideas about how to run the Navy.
 But it was Henry Roosevelt who died. And Claude Augustus, his mustachios longer and more dropping than ever, has lived on to see the Navy he loves reach one of the highest peaks of eff ficiency in its history.

True to it's deservedly well-known characteristics of self-reliance and self-support, Vermont is proceeding to find a scientific solution of it's surplus milk problem. In their usual careful, thorough manner, Vermonters have made complete survey of the milk industry, show ing how much milk is produced, where it is sold and what happens to the surplus. A special Commis- sion named by Governor Aiken, as directed by the 1887 Legislature, turns to the chemists, not to the po- liticians, for the fundamentals of a solution.
 The commission learned some i'm portant facts in making it's investi- gation. In 1896, the last year under review, the State had produced more milk than at any time during the last decade. But the milk and

 When Spring returns to Belleau Wood, Near oaks, war-torn with shrapnel shell, Blend sacrifice and Widowhood. The little ferns are kind and good To cover holes that once were hell When Spring returns to Beleau Wood Where haunting grief and stiffness
 dwell.
 The place belongs to those who fell, Loving their country all they could; Always I hear a tollng bell
 When Spring returns to Belleau Wood.
