When the first World War broke
out, a spectators holiday followed
in this country. BY the end of 1914,
the allied governments were seeking
war materials from American fac
tories on vast scale, and the sky
was the limit so far as price was con-
cerned. The allies even bid against
each other, thus sending prices
zooming. A long time passed before
buying became even comparatively
orderly and efficient.
If anyone thought that mad
scramble was due to be repeated
when the current war came into be-
ing, they were just about 100 per
cent wrong. Before the war was act
ually declared both France and
Britain had purchasing commissions
in this country. These commissions
worked comparatively, not at cross
purposes. Purchases were made by
direct contact with manufacturers,
thus eliminating the need for brok-
ers. And when, late in January, the
two commissions were merged I'M
der the name of the Anglo-French
Purchasing Board, it become evident
that the allies were out to get the
most for their money, and are
working as closely together in bus
mess matters as they are in military
affairs.
One purpose of the new Board IS
to eliminate price-boosting competi-
ton and overlapping of functions.
Another very important purpose is to
keep in friendly contact with the
U. S government and to eliminate
possible friction that might occur II
Allied purchases seemed to hamp-
er our own preparedness program.

FARM BULLETINS

Congressman David ]. Ward has
just had sent to patrons of Post
Offices ON the Eastern Shore of
Maryland living in rural districts,
lists of Farmers Bulletins, issued by
the Department of Agriculture.
Most Of the bulletins listed are of
interest to those who are engaged
in agriculture. However, a number
of the subjects are of interest to
those living in cities and villages,
for example: The City Home Gar
den; Home Canning of Fruits and
Vegetables; Diets to Fit the Family
Income; Food for Children; Win
dow Curtaining; and others.
Upon request, Congressman Ward
will be very glad to send bulletin
lists to any persons who would be
interested in receiving them.
The Bureau of Home Economics
issues a bulletin on the making of
slip covers. This publication is not
listed. but can be obtained for any
one who desires to have 1t.

George Washington Obeyed His
Mother

On the 22nd of February, 1892,
and to many, came the impulse to
congratulate the President, George
Washington, on this, his 61st birth
day A motion was made to adjourn
for one-half hour that this civility
might be paid. The motion was bit
terly opposed as smacking of idol
airy and as leaning toward mon
archy. Then 1t was the eighteenth
century. 1t is now the twentieth
century and as for many years, when
the 22nd of February comes, the
entire United States, of America adj
journs for a day to honor his
memory.
Washington was born in West
moreland County, Virginia, on Feb
ruary IL, or February %, 1892 by
cur present calendar. Due to re-
versal of finances in the family, he
was not sent to England for his
schooling as was his elder brother,
hence, at an early age, he expressed
g desire to go to sea. He had receiv-
ed an appointment as midshipman
and with his luggage aboard ship,
was ready to sail, when note from
his mother changed his plans. Bow
ing to his mothers wishes, he re-
turned to his studies.
From this episode, he learned to
accept the command of his super
Tors and this principle stuck with
him all through his life. 1t was the
reason for him changing his mind
on two momentous occasions. At
Valley Forge, broken in spirit and
health, he had written his resigna-
ton as Commander-in-Ch of the
Colonial forces. A recollection of
his mother resulted in his tearing
up the resignation. Again when he
was chosen to become the first presi-
dent, he expressed that his one de-
sire was to return to the peace and
tranquility of Mount Vernon. How
ever, his associates who knew of
that part of his life when he gave
up a career at sea at his mothers
request, recalled this episode to him
and strengthened the situation by
telling him that superior force
demanded his acceptance. His trials
and tribulations as the first presi-
dent, are wildly recorded in the
early history of our country. He was
reported to be the second richest
man in America when he died.

BETTER TIMES ON THE FARM

Better marketing for agriculture
is not a selfish goal, because it will
help the producer and consumer
alike" said L. j. Taber, National
Grange Master, recently.
The consumer population depends
upon the farmer for constant,
never-failing supply of high quality
food products. More orderly, etflclent
marketing means better and wider
variety Of foods for millions OF
homes.
On top of that, the farmer con-
stitutes the largest single market
for the products of our factories
Clothing, machinery, automobiles
insurance policies, building mater
ials, newspaper magazine-the farm
er spends hundreds Of millions OF
dollars for such things each year.
Increased farm income thus mean
more jobs and more opportunities
for business and Industrial workers.
Better times on the farm means
better time everywhere.

COLLECTIVE BARGAINING
BY ]. e. Jones

Describing Wagner Act bargain
publication of the Detroit Board of
Commerce, states that this kind of
bargaining" offers neither the
workingman or the employer a fair
deal and actually deals the oppor-
tunity of the individual workman to
better himself a deadly blow. The
real American system throws no
obstacles in the way of the average
workman to rise in his earnings and
station in life. The careers of many
successful men who have risen from
the ranks of labor proves this. A
workman operating under the "col-
iectivism" of the CLIO could never
attain the heights these men have
reached. Extra efforts on the part of
a young ambitious workman are
frowned on by union stewards and
he is told to slow down. The dead
ening effect on the ambitious outlook
of young men is terrible to con-
template.
The truth of the matter is that
since the Wagner Act, in our larger
industrial communities, the commit
tees which wait upon management
do not really represent the work
man but something they have been
sold" by union leaders who are
often outsiders These activities, Of
ten either actually subversive or of
the racket variety, have actually
been protected and defended by the
National Labor Relations Board.
The Detroit Board of Commerce is
enlisting support in this campaign
in the form of letters to Congress
men and Senators from citizens and
organizations in all parts of the
United States.

WHEN THE FIRE ENGINES GO BY

Few of us get over that juvenile
urge to follow the fire engines. It's
a thrill to hear the sirens, and see
the great red wagon clang by.
But that thrill wouldn't last long
il the fire engines led you to your
house, and you found it in flames
And the surge of excitement would
die an early death if the fire RACED
the factory or the store in which
you worked.
Every fire, great or small, brings
trouble to some one. And high per-
centage of fires leave stark tragedy
in their wake-loss Of life, loss OF
employment, loss Of possessions
which never can be replaced. There
are no mitigating qualities in fire.
1t is the great destroyer.
More than that, the effects OF
fire are exceeding widespread. A fire
of which you never heard may de-
prive you of an opportunity for DO
ing business. It may raise your taxes
and your insurance rate.
1t may adversely erect your future
life and income.
Here in America fire destroys
some $500, 600, 900 worth OF prop
erty directly each year. The indirect
loss is estimated at close to $4,000
100000. There can be no excuse for
that waste, no ablibis. Nine fires
out of ten are the result Of human
ignorance, human carelessness. hui
man thoughtlessness. Nine fires out
of ten could have been prevented
had someone not failed to take the
simple precautions that will cheek
mate most fires.
Think of this next time you see
IRE engines go by or smoke and
flames rising from a home or
building. Then ask yourself If fire
prevention is worth while.

The National Labor Relations
Board ordered the Ford Motor Com
pany to desist at its Summerville,
Mass, plant, from circulating litera-
ture disparaging labor organizations,
on the grounds that such literature
is coercive and an interference with
the right of employees to organize.
That's a tough one to understand.
Under the National Labor Relations
Act, it is now an unfair" labor
practice for the employer to dis
charge employees for union activities
Employees thus discharged can, under
the law, obtain reinstatement and
back pay, and this has been done in
numerous instances.
1t will be interesting to see how
long such dictatorial attitude by
public servants will be tolerated.

JAPANESE BEETLES OUTSMART

Japanese beetles-scourge of farm
and garden, trees and grass-out-
smarted old man winter.
The beetle grubs stay in the
ground during winter, and simply
bore deeper as the temperature goes
lower, explained DR.. E. N. Cory,
State entomologist. He said they
were affected little, if any, by the
cold.
Entomologists at the University of

infect beetle grubs with a disease
milky whites-in hopes that it will
become an epidemic and halt the
spread of the beetle.
Other insect pests may have suf-
fered from severe winter weather,
however, DR.. Cory said.
Such insects as Mexican bean
beetles, cucumber beetles, Colorado
potato beetles and squash bugs live
in winter as adults, undergoing GER
tain physiological changes preparing
them for the cold.
They live in humus on top of the
ground. "If an early cold snap comes
before they are prepared, some
might be killed, but they can stand
great cold" Cory said
"a rapid change might kill them
Snow serves to cover, protect and in
sulate them. A very cold winter with
little or no snow, would kill con-
siderable numbers"

bread have increased more through

ponding increases in the cost of raw
materials. Most of the numerous
complaints" reported by the TNEC
in January concerned bread. The
large bakers were asked about it and
their defense was that they were
forced to raise prices of bread be-
cause of the rising costs of raw
wheat and flour resulting from the

that the increase in -four prices

Keep Out of Politics

There is a good deal of froth in
all the news and comments going
around these days to the effect that
Federal employees mustn't express
any opinions, or exercise any infiu-
ence in political matters because it
would be a violation of the Hatch
Act.
The sad fact remains that Fed
eral employees will merely pull the
strings from behind the curtains,
and not attempt to lead any torch
light, or other professions that
would expose their interference in
politics. Don't forget that the man
who holds a political job naturally
holds political interest in elections.
You can see how it works in your
old home town.

Is the comment from one community
on lumber costs. Purchase price Of
homes will unavoidably go up If
current trends extend, a number of
the reports point out.
Increases Range to 30 Pet.
The association queried members
Of its Land Developers and Home
Builders Division as to current
home building costs. Reports re-
ceived covering SIS leading cities In
rs States show the increase in costs
Of material. where it occurs, has very
recently, and for some items, ranged
as high as 80 per cent with the COM
monest rate Of increase between 10
per cent and IS per cent. The re-
porting home builders in a number
of cases state increases in material
costs in their community to be, in
their judgment, unwarranted. A
number Of them. reporting on in
creased labor costs. state that sub
contractors raise their prices and
blame it on alleged cost increases,
which In some cases are not actual.
Plumbing, next to raw lumber, gets
most frequent mention among ma
terials whose prices are rising. Also
mentioned: Millwork, steel, copper
pipe, "au metal materials" roofing,
common brick, heating units, elec-
trical material and mason material.
Where a rise is reported in ma
terial costs, 10 per cent rise or
more has been experienced by more
than half Of the reporting home
builders. and it has been at least a
20 per cent rise for more than one
sixth of the home builders. Of those
reporting an increase, about l man

ber, went as high as 80 per cent.

greatly alarmed because Of rising
construction costs. The F. H. A. has
announced that It will not recog-
nize sudden and unwarranted in
creases in building costs. Though
officials feel present price rises are
only temporary. they are watch
ing the situation carefully.
Rising building costs are proving
headache, particularly to build
ers of low-cost homes. Due to the
small margin of profit in low-cost
building. even a slight increase in
materials prices affects greatly the
price of their finished product.
Even an increase of 500 in the
cost of the small home reduces
greatly the market for that house.
Most low-cost housing is financed
through the F. H. A. The fact that
the administration will net recOg-
nize current materials price rises
and increase the amount of the loan
commitment has placed many build
ers in quandary.
Private builders and Federal
Housing officials are confident that
the present sharp upward trend OF
materials prices is not permanent.
But they are aware that the situa-
ton could become very serious.
Federal officials have said they will
not tolerate unjustihable increases
in prices of either materials or the
finished home.
Increases in home building costs
in recent weeks, particularly in the
cost of materials, is reported to the
National Association of Real Estate
Boards from many cities The in
creases reported are spotty, frequent
ly sharp, sometimes accompanied
by difficulty in getting materials,
especially in communities where de-
fense activity is high. IN some in
stances they are already threaten
ing to halt construction. Lumber
shows by far the most general in
crease, although retail price ad-
