Red Flag Proves Feed Signal

That the peace officers of
the nation and members of the
Fleet Reserve association have
decided that there will be no
fifth column activities, is
proven by the following news
item appearing in the Lomtia,
Calf, News:
Fifth column hysteria broke
out in Lomita early on Memoir
ial Day, when a neighbor saw
a small red flag displayed at
the Henry Venema place at 1926
Lomita Boulevard.
"Officers and Spike Laski of
the Fleet Reserve were called
and the offending flag torn up
after Venema had proven that
it was just a signal to the
Lomita Feed store that he need
cd feed for his rabbits.

Behold the great fisherman.
He ariseth early and disturbeth
the whole household. His Prep
arations are mighty. He goes
forth with high hope. He re-
turns late at night with strong
drink on his breath. And the
truth is not in him.
We saw the above ditty
framed and hanging on the
wall in a restraint while on q
fishing trip. However it does
not apply to us as We had
cokes, got home early and had
lots Of fish.
We saw them draining and
refilling the swimming pool this
week and it reminded us of the
experience we had when a res
ident of the Cornhusker state.
My. father, who IS sheriff Of a
Nebraska county, had to take
an insane man to the asylum
at, Hastings. While setting in
the superintendent's office at
the institution we noticed the
inmates ENJOYING the swimming
pool out in the yard. After not
icing one fellow make q fine
iacknife dive we mentioned that
there seemed to be a lot OF in
terest in the pool. The superin-
tendent said, yves they have a
lot OF enthusiasm for the pool
and If thew show this much in
terest next year we are going
to put water in It,"
Did you know that the local
swimming pool holds $4,000
gallons Of water, and that it
takes seven hours to drain and
twelve hours to refill?
From all reports available
they are having a rip-roaring
rodeo at Sheridan this week.
There were many from here in
attendance that stated they en-
joyed the show. Sheridan always
goes the limit when they spon-
sor any project and it looks
like they have clicked again.
Congratulations Sheridanites.
After what looked like a
shaky start the Hardin Amer
lean Legion Junior baseball
team is in the running for hon
ors. So far in league COMPETE
tion. they have defeated Bill
lings and Roundup and have
been beaten by Roundup once.
They are playing the rub at
Roundup this week. To decide
the district championship a
team must win two out of three
games from the other teams in
the league.

SOCIAL WORKERS
STATE PRINCIPLES

In the mailbox of every congress
man recently there was placed an
interesting and important document
1T was the statement of principles
drawn up by the editorial board of
Social Work Today, an organ OF pro-
fessional social workers, and signed
by rs national and local leaders in
social work.
On the basis of this statement of
principles discussion will be started
| in the numerous social work organi-
cations existing all over the country.
1t consisted of seven points They
were:
L. There is a very tangible CORE
lation between unsatisfied social and
economic need and the decision of a
people to go to war
2. "The wars in Europe and Asia
supply no real economic basis for the
discontinuance or reduction of any of
the public and private social services
now being offered the American peo-
pie. -.
g. Existing social and civil services
must not be geared into military
program. Any program relating to
military preparation should be pre-
scented as such to the American peo-
pie.
4. 1.-THE most earnest consideration
should be given to effective legislation
for taking the profits out of war ).
5. "Civil rights must be jealousy
guarded in this period. Implicit in
the tendency to limit free speech, free
assembly, free press and the freedom
of political opinion in times of stress, |
is a cynicism about the democratic |
process
6. Social workers are willing, of |
course to offer assistance, as they |
have always done, to war s victims.
But they consider the prevention of
war to be of infinitely greater inn
portance than such ministration after
the event =.
7. "Social work has always been
to a program of positive
education for democratic living . :"

A NEW FRONTIER

when we were SO wretchedly bewild
cred that we forgot how many similar
dreams we had cherished from other
creeds: from Mormonism, from the
Populists, from the Founding Fathers.
Does anyone want an illustrative
analysis of communist propaganda?
It is too easy. Take your little tools
! and white 1t out for yourselves. They
have always been excessive in name
become expert at transfer, glittering
generality, testimonial, and card stack
ing. Most obvious Of their transfer
devices is the famous slogan, Com
munism is Notwithstanding Ameri-
canism." Card stackisg is the tech
nique of all their front organizations,
whose doings and declarations they
are loud to praise in support of their
objective of the moment. 1t is also
evident in their selectivity in publish
ing the news of the world while at
the same time denouncing the kept
press.
But while making hay of communist
here is only one of the more spectac-
ular Illustrations of a widespread mis-
conception about people in general.
That is the belief that change of
power can build new society on an
enduring basis while at the same time
maintaining unchanged the essential
of its people. If you sub
stitute the democratic party for the
republican party, what have you done?
II you substitute the dictatorship of
great wealth for the dictatorship of
the proletariat, what have you done?
You have changed the forms and ig-
nored the content. Your people will
continue to oppose the evil to the good
and bind themselves in further chains
Of propaganda One group will con-
,inue to exploit another And the in
lividual will continue to waste in
shame and ignorance and hatred.
l do not mean to disparage the eff
orts of groups in their daily strug-
sles for betterment. l say that our
ong-range thought and our leadership
must be based on more profound
of ourselves. We shall
continue to have Dies committees
and remember that we are all respon-
ible for the Dies committee) so long
s we have poverties in our national
ife and communisms to issue brilliant
nd specious challenges.

Congressional
.Oratory to Center
On Agreements

WASHINGTON, d. C.=(FP)-Sinee
no major legislation is ordinarily con-
sidered by congress in an election
year, political leaders in both camps
expect that the chief debate on farm
matters will center around the recip-
rocal trade agreement program which
expires on June 18th. President
Roosevelt has already asked congress
to extend the trade agreements act for
another three year period.
The original act. passed in 1884, was
for three year period, and the ex-
tension voted by congress in 1887 was
for a like period.
A preview of congressional argu-
ments pro and con indicates no seri-
GUS departures or innovations. The
only such attempt in recent weeks
came from Senator McNary (R) who
charged that the trade of the United
States with France, the United King
dom, and Canada had suffered be-
cause of wartime currency deprecia-
tion, which the trade agreements can
not counter. Secretary Wallace de-
molished this argument however by
showing that exports to these nations
have increased sharply since the for
eign currencies became cheaper.
Both Wallace and McNary argued
in terms of total exports without Civ
ing a breakdown of farm and non
farm items. Since the increase in ex-
ports has affected war materials al
most exclusively and since it is Of
'icially expected that normal" ex-
PORTS including foodstuffs will be sac
'ificed for the more urgent war orders,
t seems evident that the trade agree
nents themselves can be credited
leither with the recent general in
rease in exports nor with the de-
reases in particular items of farm
xports.
