Your letter was read at open

and I were impressed by your ex-
preSSionS ana sentiments. We feel
t h a t whatever contribution to
Scouting we have made in Nogales
would have been an empty gesture
indeed had it not been for the older
boys of your type who have assum-
ed the leadership in carrying out
the hopes Of Rotary that Nogales
Youth could be benefited and help
ed by active participation in Scout
ing.
We feel that the Scouting move
ment, more than any other, is fit
ted to meet the needs of Youth.
It's growth bespeaks the place in
National life which it fills, and the
Importance which it holds.
AS President of the Nogales Ro-
tary Club and in it's behalf, may
again thank you for both your ]et-

you in the Troop. We are cogniz-

The acquaintance which he made
in college and during his travels
were of material assistance in the
early extension of Rotary.
In 1896 he felt he had gained suf-
ficient parctical knowledge to be Of
service to his clients and opened a
law office in Chicago. He had nei-
ther friends nor relatives in that
city. He had much time for reflec-
ton and pondered much on con-
ditionS Of life and business in a
large city. In 1905, as result of
his studies and reflections, he had
formulated a definite philosophy of
business relations. Calling together
three of his friends, each of whom
was engaged in different line of
business, he expounded his theory
to them.
This group was the nucleus of the
first Rotary club in the world, the
Rotary Club of Chicago. Through
the work of Paul Harris and other
members of the Chicago club,
similar clubs began to be organized
in a number of other cities.
After a few years the necessity
for some organization to bind these
different clubs together became ap-
parent. Thereupon Paul Harris,
Chesley Perry, and others organiz-
ed the National Association of Ro-
tary Clubs in America, in 1910.
When clubs were formed in Can
ada and Great Britain, making
the movement international in
scope, the name was changed, in
1912, to The International Asso-
citation of Rotary Clubs. In 1922
the name was changed to Rotary
International.
Paul Harris was the first presi-
dent of the National Association
and the First President of the In
ternational Association of Rotary
Clubs and is President Emeritus of
Rotary International He has trav-
eled extensively and has visited
many countries throughout the
world in which there are Rotary
Clubs.
On July 2, 1910, he was married
to Miss Jean Thomson, of Edin-
burg, Scotland, She has accom-
panied him on many OF his Rotary
travels and has assisted him in en-
tertaining many Rotary friends
from all parts of the world at their

Have you ever wondered why it is
that so few homes have lights ade-
quate for reading or other diver
sions? Many a man has to wander

doubt caused by the house man.
ayers desire to make the establish
ment look cozy with dim lights, ro-

Of atmosphere.
Assuming the man OF the house
deserves a good reading lamp after
he has been working his fingers to
the bone at his office, or on the golf
course, why not provide him with
the last word in lamps? You have
probably seen the new fluorescent
lamps working in shops or store
windows, and you will find that the
same pleasing daylight effect may
now be had via small unit for the
home.
The lamps are sort of like neon
signs and require small reactor

proper current. All the necessary
equipment is housed in an attractive
base of plated bronze, and the tube
Is mounted in the top with an ad-
Unstable shade, and polished reflec-

antitrust FRONT
ACTIVITY, REPORT

WASHINGTON.-( FP) = Advances
on all fronts in it's antitrust often
sive were reported here by the de-
partment of justice as Attorney Cen
eral Frank Murphy told reporters of
further indictments in the building
industry and action in the glass con-
tainer and eye glass sector.
A series of eight indictments were
handed down by a federal grand jury
for the southern district of New York,
Murphy said, involving nine corpora
lions and their officers and one in
dividual. Those indicted are in the
electrical contracting phase of the
building industry
In Ohio the case of the U. S. against
the Empire Corp, makers Of
glass containers, will be started short
ly, Murphy added. The company con-
trolls about 96% of the glass container
industry and figured in hearings on
patent monopolies held by the Tenn
porary National Economic committee.
In addition, grand juries are in
vestigating patent monopolies in the
electric light and optical industries
and indictments may be forthcoming.
Success in the antitrust suit in the
optical industry, Murphy said, would
result in a substantial lowering of
prices for eye glass lenses and frames.
Firms indicted in New York con-
stitute almost all of the large con-
Germs furnishing electrical lighting
fixtures for large public construction
projects in New York city, Murphy
said.

TOLEDO. - OPP - Gov John W.
Bricker (R.) possesses a sardonic
sense of humor.
In Cleveland 10000 reliefers subsist
on flour and apples. In Toledo needy
families are scavenging among the
city refuse for food. Hundreds of
communities large and small report
financial distress.
Schools are closed WPA projects
are being pared for lack of matching
funds. The rising business index has
had thus far no tangible relation to
the pressing problems of unempIoy-
ment and starvation.
Everything is all right in Ohio"
snapped the governor, replying to his
critics.
George B. Chandler, executive vice
president of the Ohio Chamber of
Commerce, added a piping contralto
of encouragement: "Ohio is in excel
ent shape" he said. at is a step to-
ward turning back the responsibility
for poor relief to the local districts
where it belongs. That is local self
government at its best"
Toledo's city council is wondering
how to raise money to stem a grow
ing tide of evictions. Hundreds of
needy families are without funds to
meet rent payments. Before relief
was stopped last September the city
was giving rent relief to 1872 families.
The need of rent relief is greater
than ever at present but no one knows
where money to meet this emergency
can be raised.
Grocers are suing the city to re-
cover S560,000 for food advanced on
relief orders issued in the past. The

than buying noxious gases from their

How does the company square its
sentiment reeking, hypocritical bathos
in this editorial wherein it sobs about

If any of them should have the tenn

was complete without these two OBJ
jectives being considered.
The committees met in the Green

were skillfully handled. The mechan-
les that make for successful group
meeting were almost flawless.
The programs were held in mod
ernistic room that was perfectly APP

curtains, neon lighting and a green
carpet over the floor plus the up
holstered chairs made for comfort.
The farmers were getting the breaks
at this meeting. Farmers enjoy nice
things as well as anyone else and if
they go the cooperative way they
are going to get them.
Full Program
From Monday to Friday a full pro-
gram was the order. Sight seeing
tours to our plants and to the wheat
pit and other interesting places in
the Twin Cities had to be taken on
the run in order that the important
sessions would not be missed.

Dies Brands Consumer Groups
transmission Belts for Communism"
Martin Dies, chairman of the House
committee investigating un-American
activities, seems to have pulled a
fast one last week when he released
for publication a report by his re
search director" one ]. B. Matthews,
on Communist activities in consumer
organizations"
The report, it appears, was made
at a meeting OF a subcommittee on
December 3. Mr.. Dies had appointed
himself as the only member of this
subcommittee
The report smeared consumer and
cooperative groups as transmission
belts for communism" especially nam
ing Consumers National Federation,
League of Women Shoppers, Consum-
ers Union, Milk Consumers Protective
Association, Consumer-Farmer MILK
Cooperative, and New York Consum-
ers Council.
Smeared also for cooperating with
these groups was hard-hitting Donalu
Montgomery, consumers counsel 1or
the AAA.
It had been known for some time
that the big boys were out cunning
for Montgomery, who was active IN
exposing the District of Columbia
milk trust before the Monopoly COM
mittee. and who incurred the enmity
of powerful publishers and advertisers
because of his efforts to stamp out
dishonesty in advertising.
Striking back at Dies, Montgomery
gave a clue to what the thing may
be all about. 81 have been aware OF
charges by representatives OF Hearst
Magazines, Inc.," he said, that the
difficulties it has encountered under
the law are due to me and some OF
the consumer organizations. Appar-
emily Mr.. Dies has lent his support to
an effort to make the consumer move
ment a red herring to divert public
