The director would like to see

TWO SPORT STORIES
BY William D. Trausch.

October, the month when the
hunter again comes into his own,
brings also good reading in the
form of two sports stories by
William D. Trausch. THE golden
Goose" appearing in the October
issue of Outdoors magazine, and
"Ringnecks are where you find
EN-, in the October number of
Outdoorsman magazine, both
periodicals currently on sale at all
news stands.
Those who have hunted the
goose know him for a willy bird,
game that tests to the limit the
patience and skill of the hunter,
and in The Golden Goose, Mr..
Trausch weaves this fact into an
entertaining story containing his
usual arresting style and delight
full twist.
There is humor and common
sense in "Ringnecks are where
you find EN-, a pheasant story
you will want to read from the
opening paragraph to the last.
Adept at Characterization. Mr..
Trausch brings to life Breezy,
and Cousin John. two characters
each with set notions as to how
and where to hunt the ringneck
pheasant, and in the ensuing mar
rative skaters their notions with
views of his own.
These two sport stories follow
the same vein of entertaining
reading contained in Mr.. William
Trausch's new book, "The Grab
Bag, sparkling collection of
short stories by Cleveland au-
; thor of Saxon descent.
"The Grab Bag. now in it's
second binding, is the type OF

GET READY FOR WINTER.

Here comes winter. In a very
short space of time large part
of the country will be experience
ing rainy days and cold nights.
And not far away are the months
of snow and sleet and storm.
Winter is something to get
ready for. That means buying
new warm clothes. or repairing
and cleaning old ones. 1t means
buying wood and coal and fuel
oil. 1t, means fixing that leaky
spot in the roof that has been
neglected during the dry summer
And finally, to the wise house
holder. it means taking special
precautions against a destroyer
that waits for winter-hre.
Have your furnace inspected,
and have that inspection done by
somebody who knows what to
look for. It's no work for an anna
teur. Have needed repairs effect
ed at once. See that chimneys and
flues are properly cleaned. Hard
pressed heating plants in bad or
der are one of the most prolific

FFFORTS to prevent sabotage

not as effective as they should be,
due to jealousy between the four

Lack of cooperation and absence
Of well-planned interchange of

This is serious matter, because
foreign espionage work is highly or

Of the national debt. Nor is there
any indication at present that the
administration is trying to work to-
ward a pay-as-you-go basis.
Next session of Congress will see
a new and broader tax action. Be-
cause they are dissatisfied with the
present tax tumble, Republicans
are studying a plan to levy excess
profits taxes on the basis of rela-
tionship of profits to wages.
Under this plan, companies pay
ing the higher proportion OF wages
would benefit from a lower proper
tionate tax. The wage incentive
would be expected to have stabiliz-
ing effect.
CANADA undoubtedly will re-
~ ceive sizeable portion of the
500 million dollar Export Import
Bank credit fund. The contention is
that, although Great Britain has de-
faulted on her obligations to the
United States, Canada can be con-
sidered as separate entity not sub
ject to the restrictions of the John
son Act.
