Why doesn't some Senator, prefer
ably a supporter of embargo repeal,
rise in his place and boldly utter
the underlying, unadulterated truth?
What is that truth? So far as I
know, it has never been so frankly,
fearlessly or fully told in any quarter
as it was by my gifted colleague,
Arthur Krock, Washington cores
pondent of the New York Times
Writing on September 6, Krock said
that the object Of embargo repeal is
to help the allies, that the actual
reason why the administration
wants the embargo removed is be-
cause 1t deprives, in this instance,
Great Britain and France, of 10 per
cent of the war-making materials
which would help them defeat Ger
many. Krock added that there
has been little official concealment
that this is the real reason for the
unsuccessful attempt in Congress in
July to eliminate the arms ban. It
is the actual, rather than the tech
nical reason which animates the
opposition"
Opportunity for Great Speech.
There is waiting In the United
States Senate at this hour an op-
portunity for a speech that will
ring down the ages. perhaps like
Edmund Burke's address on the
American Colonies in the British
Parliament, or, to go modern, like
William Jennings Bryan's cross-of-
gold epic at Chicago. I mean a
speech that will not use language
as vehicle for concealing thought,
but which will tell the plain truth
about this neutrality business, as
Arthur Krock did, strip it of its IRA
tional and irrelevant technicalities,
and put 1t to the American people in
terms Of burning simplicity. The
Senate anti-embargo group con-
tains several men who oratorically
have what it takes. Sherman
Minton of Indiana and Josh Lee of
Oklahoma both won their Demos
thenesian spurs in college days.
Burke of Nebraska has the elo-
quence, which Speaker Tom Reed
once defined as logic on fire." requi-
site for the task. Bailey of North
Carolina would be impressive, too If
Carter Glass health permits, that
hard-hitting statesman, of course,
could shake the dome with the sort
of argument he's capable of making
on high political occasions. On the
Republican side Bob Taft ought to
do good job, despite the jinx that's
attached to his speaking reputation
ever since his Gridiron Club flop
last winter.

5000 People Head for the Hills as
Man-Made Flood Covers Valley
BY The AP Feature Service

by Inc Al FeaJure service
Spokane, Wash. - Three thou
sand persons are about to see
their homes, farms and even the
towns they have built disappear
under vast man-made lake.
They are jewellers in the great
Columbia River Canyon, which is
slowly being flooded as water
backs up behind the Grand Cou-
lee dam.
The dam is not completed, but
as the massive pile of concrete
rises higher and higher the lake
behind it grows. Eventually the
underwater area will be Isl miles
long ard one to six miles wide, a
total of $4,000 acres.
Surveys have fixed the water
level at 1910 feet above the sea,
and that figure is the chief topic
of conversation along the river.
Ii you're "below $780," the
Government has been around try
ing to buy your land and build
ings, because they'll soon be under
water. If you're "above 1870" you
stay where you are but can soon
look forward to having a great
lake in your front yard.
Costly To Uncle Sam
Uncle Sam is paying about $10,-
100000 to the people he is dis
possessing, and plans to spend an
other $1O,OO0,O00 clearing the lake
bottom SO that dead trees and old
barns and houses will not be bob
bling up to the surface in years to
come. The average small home
and the land it occupies has
brought about $4,000.
Ten towns large enough to
have a postoffice, several smaller
hamlets, and many Individual
farms will be submerged. Marcus,
population 600, is the largest town
in the area.
Residents of several towns hope
to retain their corporate identity
in new location. j. K. Mutterer,
postmaster at Daisy, says there'll
be new Daisy-possibly a resort
town-on the shore of the COM
pleted lake. The town of Kettle
Falls is merging with Meyers
Falls, higher. up on the canyon
side.
Young Folks Like It
Relocation of some communities
depends upon the rebuilding
of 227 miles of highway and 26
miles of railroad. The old loca-
tions will be submerged.
Some of the pioneers in this
valley of numbered days regret
leaving their homesteads in their
old age. The younger people rath-
err welcome the cash sales which
give them stakes for a new start.
The community generally looks
forward to better times as the, re-
suit of easy lake transportation
and cheap power from the dam.
The great lake that will wind
north and east up the Columbia
Canyon is not to be confused with
the Grand Coulee reservoir pro-
per. The latter is : a great dry
basin created by ancient erosion,
into which river water will he
pumped and stored for irrigation.

without promotion, as would all
those coming in after them.
Instead the immediate require
ments will be filed by bringing in
from the private air schools re-
serve officers, flying cadets and
newly trained filters who will
serve only three to seven years.
Each year for the next 10 years
200 to 800 will be selected from
this list for permanent commits
sions in the air force.
But the immediate prospect is
for 5000 air corps reserve officers
to be offered active duty for three
to seven years, an increase from
1850 such jobs during recent
years. If at the end of three years
they are not chosen for perman-
en-. commissions, they may retire,
trained filters, with $500 bonus.
Of course if war comes, they'll
be on the spot.

Governments on the Lookout
forSon1e Bright College Boys

Washington Up More than eve
before in peace time the govern
ment is going after bright young
men from the COLLEGES to fill its
fighting planes and laboratories
The government is expanding
its pursuit of the arts of war side
by side with its pursuit of the arts
of peace.
To man the 5000 new planes
the air corps expects to buy dur
ing the next two years will re-
quire not only $4,000 extra en-
listed men from outside the col
leges, but 1000 more officers,
most of them college men.
At the same time the depart
ment of agriculture is reaching
out for LOO bright young college
men,. It wants to get that many
probably within the next year to
begin hunting in four new labora-
tories for new uses to which sur
plus cotton, corn, wheat or pota-
toes can be put. They also will
seek uses for crops which can re-
place those of which we now have
too much.
The selection plan has not been
worked out but it probably will
be something akin to the system
which the Big technical industries
such as General Electric, General
Motors and Chrysler motors use
in searching out expert help.
These companies take selected
students fresh from the campus
and give them jobs in the COM
pany plants to learn the business.
&
Filters A Problem
More complicated is the method
of selecting Army filters. The
Army couldn't absorb 1000 new
filters all at once even if it could
train them. 1t would put a disas-
trous hump in the promotion
system to take in so many all at
once. Many would serve for years

Legislative
Sidelights
By II. E.. SaDennes

Some really important legisla-
ton of statewide significance is
eking out of committees and find
ing its way to the floors of the
legislative bodies. Rural Mime
sofa is especially interested in the
law requiring employers to make
benefit payments on employees of
one or more. The house bill pro-
posed to limit payment when
eight or more are employed by
one establishment. The house
committee amended it to provide
for benefit payments when five or
more are employed but the senate
committee recommended eight or
more.
Rural legislators were especial
ly interested in the bill, claiming
little benefit from this law ever
reverted to their communities be-
cause employment wasn't as sea-
sonal as in the larger centers.
Those favoring the bill claimed
the cost, too, was burdensome and
entirely out of proportion to the
benefits paid.
In Redwood county employers
paid in $21, 1884 in a year and
benefit payments for year total
ed $14,428. If all counties were
given as much in return as Red
wood the bill would not have
found such ready backing. As an
illustration we might cite Walton
wan which paid in $l6,596 and
received $4,000; Sibley which paid
in $11,500 and received $2,l80;
Stevens which paid in $11,559 and
received $3,031; Murray which
paid in $1,000 and received ST.
497; Brown which paid in $56,512
and received $23, 1853; Cottonwood
which paid in $14,128 and receiv-
ed $6,105.
st. Louis county is one of the
counties that received more bene-
fit payne ntS than they contribut-
ed to the fund. Ramsey and Hen
nepin counties received approx
imately the same returns as Red
wood county in proportion to the
amount paid in. One exceptional
case is Crow Wing county which
paid in $57 900 and received
$226,000 in return.
Instead of qualifying examina-
tions for all present state employ
es the house civil administration
committee recommended that the
state sblanket in" all employees
who have worked for the state
four and one-half years. They are
of course subject to the six-month
probationary period during which
any or all may be removed. The
governor is said to be favorable

on the economic side of the ques-
ton.
Vending machines of all kinds

bills introduced in both houses
become law. Owners of all variet-
les would be assessed SIS annual
ly for each device.
Lobbyists for this and that will
possibly make themselves little
scarcer if a bill proposed passes,
making them file their expenses
periodically under penalty. Bride
charges against lobbyist who
was charged with offering brides
to number of legislators to vote
for the small loan bill have tenn
porarily come to a halt because
the man named cannot be found.
The charges brought renewed dis,
gust with those who prey on le-
gislators and all are anxious that
the charges be thoroughly aired
