Redeem Wheat

A new ruling which will per-
nit Big Horn county farmers
to redeem wheat under govern
ment loan in order to pay the
release amount was announced
recently by the officer of the
Big Horn County Agricultural
Conservation Association.
Under this ruling, county ag-
ricultural conservation commit
tees may submit to the Com
modify Credit corporation the
borrowers request for a release
amount and at the same time
authorize delivery of the collat-
eral wheat to an approved ele-
vator. This wheat may then be
redeemed by paying the release
amount within ten days from
the date the amount is comput-
ed by the Commodity Credi
corporation.
Wheat must be delivered To
the elevator within ten days of
the computation date.
After the farmer has re-
deemed his wheat at a price
based on IL per cent protein.
he may sell where he chooses
and thus obtain the benefit of
any higher protein content.

Among the citations which
comprise the Lesson-Sermon is
the following from the Bible:
II will 60 in the strength of
the Lord God: I will make men,
ton of thy Righteousness, even
of thine only. My lips shall
greatly rejoice when I sing I'M
to thee; and my soul, which
thou hast redeemed" (Psm. IL:
16, 23).
The Lesson-Sermon also in
cludes the following passage
from the Christian Science
textbook, Science and Health
with Key to the Scriptures" by
Mary Baker Eddy: Become
conscious for a single moment
that Life and intelligence are
purely spiritual,-neither in nor
Of matter,-and the body will
then utter no complaints. If
suffering from a belief of sick
ness you will find yourself sud
denly well. Sorrow is turned
into Joy when the body is con-
trolled by spiritual life, Truth,
and Love-" (p. 14).

Church Now Member
OF Larger Group

There is no longer a Metho-
dist Episcopal church in Hardin.
Since Wednesday, May 10, there
have been no members of the
Methodist Episcopal church in
Hardin.
Hardin's merchants are in
structed by the Rev. Ernest w.
Denning that they can collect
no more money from the Meth
odist Episcopal church. All &C
counts in the city of Hardin
against the Methodist Episcopal
church or any of its subsidiary
organizations are null and
void: they might as well be
wiped from the records.
Episcopal is Dropped
But all merchants and bank
ers and others have to do is
merely take a pen ana scratch
off the name Episcopal from
the account names.
There definitely is a Metho-
dist church in Hardln-but the
name Episcopal is dropped.
Why? Because on the evening
of Wednesday, May 10, the
Methodist Episcopal church, the
Methodist Episcopal church,
South, and the Methodist Prot
estant church were all formally
united together to FORM the
Methodist church. This was
done at the evening session
which climaxed the uniting
conference in Kansas City, Mo.
Future is Promising
Local. Methodists on May 1
were members OF a church
which numbered four and a
half million members, now
there are 5000 900. They were
served by $4,000 ministers; now
there are 81 900.
Local Methodists have two
things to celebrate this year.
The uniting of American Meth
odism and the fact that in No
vember, Hardin's Methodist
church will be a quarter of a

JAMES PREsro~

"A OeIdGOT TeCeIlCly
during a debate on the Senate
floor: 1T is difference of opin-
ion that makes horse racing
So it is that a difference of
opinion appears likely to make
another kind of race in Wash
ington before Congress finally
goes home for a rest.
The difference of opinion in
this case will be over the sub
ject of taxation. In Congress
the opinion is growing that tax
es must be reduced If recovery
is accomplished. But in down
town" Washington-that is, in
the chambers of the Brain
Trust and the thinker-uppers-
the opinion is still steadfast
that America can spend its way
out of debt and depression, with
tine taxpayer footing the bill.
First indication that Congress
is thinking along the lines OF
easing the tax burden came
when the House Ways and
Means Committee voted to rec
ommend a postponement of the
increase in the Social Security
tax. This recommendation was
predicated on the belief that
the American worker and en-
ployer are already over-burd-
ened with taxes.
The idea seems to be spread
ing at the Capitol, and observ-
ers who had doubted the pos
sibility of serious consideration
OF general tax revisionS at this
session are now revising their
predictions and saying: THE
outlook is brighter"
But, as in horse racing, there
is the difference OF opinion. In
nner administration circles the
thought still PERSISTS that more
spending must be undertaken
and that present tax rates must
continue or even be increased.
The first indication here was
announcement that the admin
istration will seek to continue
several nuisance" taXeS-Such
as the three-cent postage rate
which had originally been
levied as emergency taxes
and which are due to expire
this year.
If professional gamblers were
betting on the outcome of the
race" the odds probably woulc
favor the downtown horse
but it appears now that the
Congressional tax horse" will
run a better race than hac
been expected.
Keen observers believe the
tax race this session is only q
preliminary to real contest next
year, when the Congressman
cover to cover and believe it
should be a rule to practice.

THE DESTRUCTIVE RAT

Public health authorities estimate
that the actual loss caused by rats in the
United States amounts to $500, 100000 a
wear. of which about one-half is in food
stuffs and the rest in the destruction of
other property.
The number of rats engaged in these
depredations is estimated at 20,000,000,
or about equal to the country's human
population.
Besides the destructiveness of the rat
is its constant menace to health through
the transmission of disease, especially
bubonic plague, which is spread entirely
bv fleas which infest infected rats. While
the disease has been held in check in coun-
tries employing preventive measures. bu-
bonic plague killed more than 100000
people in India during a 20-year period.
The Public Health Service declares
that if the extraordinarily prolific breed
ing of rats were not partially controlled by
natural enemies, disease and the canni-
balistic tendencies of the animal itself,
they would soon overrun the world and ex-
terminate man by depriving him or MS
sources of food.
Like many other ever-present menaces
to property and health, the rat appears TO
be taken for granted, and seldom is any
concerted effort made with a view to its
determination.

KEY WEST DEFENSE SYSTEM

w ICn foreign submarines ana ObnoF
vessels repeatedly operating in or momen-
tarily moored in Caribbean and Gulf of
Mexico waters; with the" Panama canal a
vital point in the national defense and the
focus of hostile foreign attention, the
United States naval and military organ
izations may have some very important
work to do in this section of the world.
The main concentration points of AM
erican naval and military activity in this
section are at Puerto Rico and at Panama.
Naval and military experts during the last
several months saw the need of other bases
from which to defend the canal and the ap-
proaches to the Gulf and Caribbean. These
projects required vast sums for construc-
ton. 1t then became matter for Congress
to settle: Political considerations were
largely responsible for the decision of Con-
gress to locate these defense projects at
Jacksonville, Tampa and elsewhere-in-
stead of at or near Key West, the gateway
to the Gulf, at the point nearest the future
trouble zone.
Entirely overlooked by Congress was
the fact that Key West has extensive naval
and military plants, ready for the national
defense. The naval station facilities, the
submarine base, the fine harbor, Fort Tay-
lor's anti-aircraft and coast artillery
weapons, Key West army barracks and the
unexcelled natural advantages that might
be quickly and economically utilized for
air craft, were lost in the political shuttle
that saw the good cards dealt to less IA
vored places.
However, that is water over the dam.
War has spread across Europe. The ma
tons are at one another's Threats. The
freedom of the seas again is a vital point in
the international scene There is talk Of
sending American naval vessels to Europe
to convoy to safety the ships carrying AM
orleans out of the war zones. No matter
how hard this nation may strive to remain
neutral, something serious may occur to
upset the hope of all Americans that we
may stay out of the latest war to end all
wars. After all, this sovereign nation can
not permit any foreign country to drive our
ships from the seas. Anything can and
may happen.
What must this country do to be pre-
pared against such eventualities? Speed
up the national defense program. Make
ourselves so strong on the land, in the air
and on the sea that no nation or group OF
nations shall dare to offend our dignity or
disrupt our freedom and American system
of government.
Key West is at the entrance to the
Gulf Of Mexico. 1t is in commanding and
strategic position. 1t has extensive naval
and military works ready for use. 1t al
ways has been recognized as of first i'm
portance in previous national emergencies
The military and naval facilities here
should be utilized to the full at once in the
national defense. 1t would be folly to es-
tablish defense system that did not in
clude Key West. 1t is time we began
bombarding our officials at Washington
with demands that this exposed southern
most point be protected adequately in or
der that the whole of the United States
may be made immune from hostile attack
from all directions.

Ernest Hemingway's long-awaited
THE Fifth Column" is marching toward
Broadway, where it will be presented, it is
claimed, by the end of the year. Our fell
low townsman was Loyalist sympathizer
and Spanish stage preview, acclaimed by
the public, was rendered in Madrid some
time before its surrender. Whether the
script will be changed now that the
Spanish Civil War has resulted adversely
to Hemingway's conclusions is not known,
but play of that nature is opportune in
the development of present events.

Sunday School Lesson

homes of the faithful during the
days of the Egyptian captivity
and its observance was usually
had under conditions typical of
that original event, in that the
.observants were apparelled as if
for a sudden journey and the
meal was partaken in haste. 1t
had always been regarded as
symbol of Jehovah's protection to
his people.
The celebration itself was a
great success, so much so that 1t
was spontaneously extended to IA
days instead of the usual seven.
1t is interesting to note that strict
formality was not insisted upon
at this time for in the haste, many
people were not able to cere-
monially cleanse themselves as
required by law, yet the king in
sisted that they be allowed to
take part in the religious cere-
rnony.
1t marked the rebirth of religi-
Gus zeal in Judah, which, not
withstanding subsequent relapses,
resulted in great good to the in
habitants. Hezekiah's reign was
one of unusual prosperity and
success for Judah and the infer
ence which is plain in the ancient
account is that this was directly
the result of their faith in turn
ing to Jehovah and their fidelity
in making an honest effort to
follow him. There yet remain
some people who believe that a
nation as an Individual is judged
by its righteousness and that sue
cess or failure will come in pro-
portion as it follows God or turns
its back upon him.
IF religion had a spokesman
who stood before the divided and
estranged worshippers of God as
Hezekiah stood before his own
divided race. his call would be
framed in the same spirit and in
much the same language as Heze-
kiah employed, said William
Jennings Bryant. Back to God!
is still the plea that is necessary.
Back to God, who is just in his
judgment and unreasonable in
his love and mercy. Those who
differ in their applications of
realization to life can be brought
together only by so intensifying
faith in God and reverence for
him as to dissolve their differ
ences in a unity of purpose and
of faith.
We are living today in an age
in which religion is being subject
ed to a very severe test. There
are many people who question its
value and who point to many
evils and evidences that Christ
ianity has failed. These criticisms
should not worry any man or
woman who still holds to an an
Gent faith. These should remem-
Der that even with all of the inn
PROJECTIONS in our present day So
ciety, we are far ahead of the
state we would have reached had
it not been for our religion. We
should also note that very often
thsee criticisms against the pow
er and comfort of religion are Of
fered by those who have person
ally failed to put it to the test.
No person is able to say that re-
ligion is 6 failure unless that per-
son has submitted entirely to its
rules and requirements. We have
never heard of any devout Chris
tian regretting the faith or trust
which had been entertained
throughout life nor regretting the
dependence placed upon the
goodness of God.
