PLANE TRADE
BORR0WS IDEA
FROM KITCHEN

BALTIMORE, Md, June l.
An idea borrowed from the kit
chen is reducing the cost of build
ing airplanes.
It's a "double-boiler" to melt
zinc with greater purity, and
lengthen the life of pots in which
zinc is melted. Zinc is used in
making dies to form metal air
plane parts. The Glenn L. Mar
tin Company announced the new
development.
Formerly, zinc was melted in
pots placed directly over the fire.
But heat concentrated at certain
points, and the zinc took on i'm
purities from the melting of the
pot itself. The costly pots quick
ly eroded or burned out"
Lead-not water as in the kit
chen-is used in the bottom part
of the new double-boiler. The
smaller pot containing the zinc
is placed inside the pot of molten
lead, which distributes heat
evenly.
Research men say there is no
tendency for the metal pot to al
10y with the zinc. The cooked"
zinc is purer, thus making better
dies, and they believe the inner
pot will last indefinitely. Also,
cheaper steel can now be used to
make the zinc-melting pot.

I'm MEMORIAM

In loving memory of our dear
ly beloved son, Ray w. Gates,
who departed this life June End,
1899:
Life is not the same, dear son,
Since you left us one year ago;
Your memory is ever near to us,
Secret tears do often flow.
And how we miss you, no one
knows.
We miss your kind and loving
ways,
Your CHEEKY voice and smiling
face;
We miss you, oh, dear beloved
son,
We miss you every place.
AS time flies on, we miss you
more,
And will miss you until the
end.
1t may be IN the coming years,
1t may be in the better land
Well read the meaning of our
tears
And then, sometime, we'll under
stand.

BETTER TIMES on THE FARM

Better marketing for agriculture
bis not selfish goal, because il will
help the producer and consumer
alike" said L. J. Taber, National
Grange Master, recently
The consuming population depends
upon the farmer for constant. new
er-faiIing supply Of high quality food
products. More orderly. efficient
marketing means better and wider
variety OF foods for millions Of
homes. This has been thoroughly
proven in those areas where aglj-
cultural marketing cooperation has
been most highly developed
On top of that. the farmer cop
stitutes the largest single market
for the products of our factories.
Clothing, machinery. automobiles,
insurance policies. building mate
rials. newspapers and magazines
the farmer spends hundreds OF mil
lions of dollars for such things each
year. Increased farm income thus
means more jobs and more oppOr-
nnities for business and industrial
workers.

Charlie chap|in's B|itzkrieg Against
War Has Preview Showinu

NEW YORK, Oct. II CUP) -
Charlie Chaplin's one-man blitz-
krieg against war and hatred and
intolerance had itsb first showing
here this week.
{ Before New York's blase previeW
audience, the little man with the
baggy pants and the postage stamp
mustache unveiled his $2,3OOOOO
moving picture, The Great Dictator,
the show he wrote directed ,and
acted in protest against world
gone mad.
1t is big and carefully wrought
picture. Yet into it Chaplin has
managed to inject the same mix
ture of comedy and tragedy that
enthralled his audiences of the ST.
lent screen.
1t is a tWo-hour show, and the
greater part of it is slap-stick COM
edy, the pie-throwing, belly flop
ping, type of comedy Chaplin origi-
mated.
Chaplin's own Hitler, Jack Oakies
Mussolini, Billy Gilbert's Goering,
(they are only thinly disguisedD are
really funny. But there is tragedy
in it, too. Paulette Goddard, who
is Chaplin's wife as Hannah, Mau-
rice Moscovich as Mrs. Jaeckel,

Chaplin, this time a little Jewish
barber, are the symbols of a peo-
pie over whom darkness has fall
en-.
Laughter ara tears alternate and
lntermlngle with Kaleidoscope
speed through an hour and So
minutes
Then in the six last climactic
minutes having gripped his audi
ence with the mastery of his tragi-
comedy Chaplin holds them SPELL
bound with a powerful plea for
freedom and democracy and unity
and love.
Then Hinkel, dictator of Tomain-
ia, and little Jewish barber with
baggy pants and a derby hat, are
not speaking. 1t is Chaplin appeal
ing for the world he wants.
This is no propaganda picture,
Chaplin said while he waited nerv-
ously for it's premiere. Il have no
thought of carrying a banner.
I'm not anti anything except
the persecution of the small and
the weak. But insanity is insanity
and brutality is brutality"
Last night he sat in the rear
of the Astor Theater Watching the
audience.
