Sleeping on Surplus Cotton

A small part OF americas surplus
cotton ESTIMATED to be 91a million
bales by July 81 is now being turned
over to American farm families who
can't afford to buy mattresses so they
can make their own.
Under a mattress making program
in effect for years, 130,O0O,O0O
pounds of cotton have already been
turned over to city and rural relief
agencies by the Federal Government.
These agencies, with the aid of relief
workers. have made mattresses for
distribution to needy city families.
Now the program is being expanded
so that farm families with incomes OF
less than $400 year can take part
in the program even though they may
not be on relief. The program sup
plies each family with cotton and tick
ing sufficient for good 50-pound cot
ton mattress large enough for double
bed. Cost of the materials used in
each mattress is about Sc, but officials
have estimated that in stores these
mattresses would cost from $40 to $25
far out of reach of the families eli
gible to take part in the program.
To take part in the new program at
least 120 eligible families in a county
must apply. Councils of farm wives
scout up sewing machines, round uE
places where mattresses can be made
and organize understanding bees
Families may make their mattresses
individually, under supervision OF
trained instructors, or may come to-
gether as a group with other ,famllie!
also making mattresses.
The sleeping -on-the- surplus cam
paign has a meaning that goes far
ther than the mattress materials i
gives free or the advertising it is Civ
ing to the bedding industry by making

SECRETARY ICKES'
OWN GLASS HOUSE
(Oroville Mercury-Register)

(Orovllle Mercury-ReglSter)
People who live in glass houses should
not throw rocks.
This is time-honored adage accept
ed generally as worthy of observance
The chief rock-thrower for the ad-
ministration in Washington is Harold
Ickes. Probably those who assigned him
to the job thought that he had no glass
in his house, or if the windows We're
glazed, they were we'll protected from
public view by shutters.
Yet, that obServant columnist, Bud
Pegler, seems to have found bit of un-
protected glass. and he has tossed some
rocks at it. Pegler, we recall was the
one whose publicity put Willie Bioff,
the panderer, back in the Chicago jail
after an absence of many years.
Well, Peg, who refers to Ickes as a
"sanctimonious devil-chaser' and Har-
old, the pure in heart, first tells how
Ickes at the Chicago convention was
snapped in happy conversation with
BOSS Kelly and his mob" and with Frank
Hague, the unsavory New Jersey boss,
and likens it to Catching a parson in
raid" Ickes once thought Kelly such a
menace to Chicago that he was going to
run for mayor
But Pegler's chief boulder was aimed
at another piece of supposedly non-shat
terable and we'll camouflaged glass. He
discovered that whenever Ickes gets sick
he goes to the u, S. naval hospital in
Washington, place from which civilians
are supposed to be barred. Bud explains
it this way
''Ickes is so cheap that when he gets
sick or wants rest he muscles into the
naval hospital where he has no legal
right to put himself =. because the serv-
ice is practically free" 1t costs him only
1925 day there.
He asks Ickes to explain.

ALL ROUND CONSCRIpTIoN

The argument that the pending con-
scription bill ''conscripts men but lets
wealth go scot free" is an appeal to class
prejudice which, inferentially, leads
many to the belief that rich young men
will not be conscripted That, of course,
is not true The conscription bill ap-
plies equally to ali within the age limit,
regardless of wealth or social position.
The argument, however has been used
to support an amendment that would give
the President power to take over factories
and ether businesses in the name of em-
ergency. The trouble is, man conscript-
ed into the army would have to serve
only certain term; a factory taken over
by the government would be under gov
ernment domination until the President
was willing to let it 60
An additional objection to the amend
ment is the fact that it places all pow
er over industry in the hands of one per-
son, the chief executive He can discri-
inmate III favor of one industry, he can
penalize one single factory, he can do
anything he wants.

The word comes straight from a group

say, THANK God! It's pretty hat"
The trend back to sobriety, it is claim
ed, is to affect all feminine attire In
new clothes, the mode is to stop some
where short of severely tailored num-
ber in sackcloth and ashes but the lean

it should be.
The world in recent months has gotten
back to earth with bang; and if the
people in Europe are faced with the stark

HOLT WAS
IN NO RUSH

Soon now members of the ma
tional guard and reserve corps are
going to begin leaving civilian life
for a years tour of duty on active
service
The uniform is going to be seen
in places where it has seldom been
seen in the past. Thousands of fam
lies and business offices and fac
tories will see the vacant chair, the
cleared desk, the bench or ma
chine on which a new hand is being
'sbroken in
In the past, national guard and
reserve corps did not mean those
things. These peacetime soldiers
gave up their regular vacation time
to learning how to defend their
country. Their absences in train
ing were brief.
But now beirg called up for train
ing means real disruption in per-
sonal and working lives. 1t is no
longer enough that American SOL
diers car be given brief courses in
fundamentals and called ready War
as Europe presents it to our eyes
today means skill and teamwork
comparable to that of a Well-oiled
football team. This takes time.
These young men are giving it.
All honor to them! These ma
tional guardsmen and reserves are
the men who saw the need when
the rest did not see it. They are
the ones who gave evenings, and
week-ends, and vacations to their
country When the rest were indif-
ferent. They have had unpleasant
service to perform in case of do
meStic disorder or natural catas-
trophe. They have been sneered at
as tin soldiers and shifted at by
the complacent.
They stuck to their organizations

The duty on which they will soon

SOMETHING FOR ALL OF
US TO REMEMBER

Taxes are going up this year and next.
Everyone who's ever handed any cash
over to Uncle Sam will hand more of it
over now, and lot of folks who've never
yet paid direct tax to the bewhiskered
old gentleman will be digging down into
4 their change purses for their first con-
tributions.
Still, we've no complaint-when the
increased taxes are necessary to finance
the national defense program. Most of
us will pay them willingly, if not hap
PLY.
But here's something to remember: A
lot of people are going to try to ride the
defense bandwagon who have no business
there.
: Remember this, too. Defense is ma
tional project not one for states, coun-
ties and cities They can do nothing but
muddle it up unless they keep hands off
entirely. There is one way they can help,
however That is by tightening up their
own belts and doing with less. tightening
the TAX burden as much as they can so
the increased federal tax load will not
be such a strain.
We rather suspect that the gentlemen
who currently run California's govern
ment are going to attempt to boost their
budgets a trifle in the next few months
in the name of defense. There have been
indications already that they intend to
put forward several "home defense" prof.
ects which, in addition to costing money,
would provide nice jobs for few politi-
clans.
We want none of it. National defense
cf the United States government is one
thing; home defense of somebody's poll
teal fences is another We don't care
who they areas far as we are concern
ed the politicians can go to blazes, along
with their costly pet defense" projects.
This is no time to saddle the taxpayer
with extra bureaus, additional public
employees and greater state and local ex-
penses. We've got to pay Uncle Sam to
do the job--of providing defense, and
we're willing to pay him without "a COM
plant in spite of the pain it will cause
in the vicinity of our pocketbook. But
when state politicians try to make
gravy train out of the defense bandwagon
they'll hear our complaint clear to the
Pearly gates.
The men We will respect in public life,
whether on state or local jobs, are the
ones who, realizing the strain imposed by
increasing federal taxes, will do their
utmost to cut down the expenses of state
and municipal governments. After all,
since we as individuals take the rap for
national defense, it is only fair that the
state and municipal governments, also,
do little doing without

WASHINGTON, Aug. 3O-The
Senate early this week debated one
of the most vital and controversial
bills ever presented to Congress in
time of peace. The conscription bill
has stirred up strong feeling, both

But the other afternoon. when
one of the senators who opposes
the bill was drooling along in lei
surely time killing style, there were
just 10 senators lolling in their

Golden Text in the Lesson-Sermon
on Christ Jesus" on Sunday in all
Churches of Christ, Scientist.
One of the Scriptural. selections
presents these words of Jesus from
Matthew: Blessed are they which
do hunger and thirst after right
eousness: for they shall be filled
Let your light SO shine before men.
that they may see your good works,
and glorify your Father which is in
heaven. Think not that I am come
to destroy the law, or the prophets:
am not come To destroy, but to
fulfil =. And. behold, there came
a leper and Worshipped him, saying,
Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make
me clean. And Jesus put forth his
hand. and touched him, saying, I
will be thou clean. And Immediate
Iy his leprosy was cleansed."
Included in the Lesson Sermon
are these statements from Science
and Health with Key to the Scrip

Though demonstrating his control
over sin and disease, the great
