w
competent and honest job is desired,
how one could be. Yet the fact re-
mains that at this writing the Admin
istration is still bringing pressure
upon the court to name New Dealer
as&he trustee and sidetrack Mr. Hanes.
1t is bold grasp for power by a
small group of so-called intellectual
liberals" of the Administration. Nat
urally, those who favor national own
ership of all public utilities are in
sympathy. Control of this great cor
poration by a politically minded New
Dealer, such as Mr.. Corcoran or one
of his selection, would certainly ad-
vance the national ownership move
ment long step. 1t would have a
chilling effect upon the whole business
world and sure repercussions in Con-
gress. Probably the publicity has
busted the scheme. No adequate ex-
PLANTATION of the Morgenthau-Jac kson
attitude in trying to induce a Federal
judge to appoint political agency as
trustee of corporation sorely in need
of business brains has been given. Mr..
Jackson's part in this is not as sur
prising as Mr.. Morgenthau's as the
Attorney General is pretty far to the
Left in his leanings. But Mr.. Morgen-
thau has never before given any indi-
cation of national ownership favor,
Yet, here we find him lending himself
to a plan which makes the national
ownership boys throw their hats in the
air. 1t is very curious performance.

MEETING TOMORROW'S
TROUBLES
BY Rev. G. M. Griffeth
Pastor Methodist Church
Cecilton, Md.

Every one OF the troubles which
you anticipate may happen tomor-
row are, in reality, none-existent.
Tomorrow does not as yet exist
and neither do these anticipated
troubles exist
There are two elements of to-
morrow's troubles which exist in
today's life. One of these elements
is the set-up of certain conditions
and circumstances which may
bring about that particular trouble
which you anticipate.
The other element of tomorrow's S
troubles which exists in today's
life is the fear, the worry, the
anxiety which arise out of antici-
patton of what may happen.
You are wise to think about
what may happen tomorrow so
that you may be the better pre-
pared to meet it when it does
come. But are you wise to permit
yourself to be tortured by anxiety
arising out of what you may be
dreading?
1t is possible that the present
set-up of conditions and of un-
favorable circumstances may
change overnight. Before you per-
NIT yourself to be unduly agitated
over what may happen, why not
wait until tomorrw to see if they
are going to happen.
These worries, anxietfes, and
fears about what may take place
tomorrw which you are entertain
ing in your mind today are in
themselves causing something to
happen within you today.
They are undermining your ply
sical strenth. They are eating
away your reserve of nerve force
They are destroying your poise
They are SO weakening you as to
prevent you from adequately
meeting that trouble when it does
happen.
The best way to meet tomor-
rows trouble is to defeat the fear
of it To-day.

Heavy rains throughout lower
Delaware last week greatly elated
the farmers, as they have been re-
tarded in preparing their lands for
seeding because they were unable
to plough well in the hard, dry
crust of the farmlands. The straw
berry crop, which is at least two
weeks or more late in maturing,
was greatly helped by the rains, it
is pointed out, and there is every
evidence Philadelphia, Baltimore,
Chester, Wilmington, and other
cities will have an ample supply of
berries at moderate prices.

FROM CONGRESSMAN
GEORGE S. WILLIAMS

DIES COMMITTEE Chairman
Dies of the House Committee in
vestigating un-American activities,
contributed materially to the de-
tense problem this week in an
hours address stressing that en-
emies within our borders today
constitute a greater threat to the
country's peace and security than
potential enemies abroad. He as
sailed the fifth column" or for
eign influences at work in this
country, including Communists,
Nazis, and Fascists insidiously
working to acquire military and
industrial information. The Texas
Congressman referred to conquests
in European countries through use
of espionage and other devices and
warned that his Committee has
disclosed alarming conditions here
which demand immediate atten-
tion. He urged that constitutional
processes be invoked to enforce
our laws dealing with aliens and
asked for administration coopera-
ton with his committee. Such
positive and vigorous action will
minimize the threats from fifth
columns" in this country, he de-
clared.
FARM BILL-The farm tenancy
problem was projected onto the
foor of the House May IA, when
approval was given to a Senate
amendment to make $4,000, 900
available to purchase farms on 40
year contracts. The funds are to
come from the RFC as loans, and
the Senate provided that, in case
of unpaid installments, the Secre-
tary of the Treasury is to make up
for these deficiencies. Opponents
of this program pointed out the ad-
visibility of aiding farmers to re
tain ownership of farms, instead
of purchasing farms for few per-
sons. The South gets most of
these funds, Alabama having 1853
farms and Mississippi 1880.

worthy of their time and inspec-
tion is the Folger Shakespeare
Library at East Capitol and Sec
ond and Third Streets, Sc, only a
block from the Congressional Lib
rary. In this library, Washington
possesses, beautifully housed and
fully accessible to scholars and
the general public, the finest col
lection of Shakespeare material
outside of England. There are
thousand volumes, rang
ing from First Folios to the most
modern produce of Shakespearean
research, on its shelves. There is
a gallery of Shakespearean and
Elizabethan relics constantly on
exhibit, and portraits of Shakes
peare from the seventeenth to the
nineteenth century can be seen on
the walls of the library. The audi
torium within Folger Library is an
adaptation of seventeenth CEN
tury English theatre. All in all,
the Folger Library offers an ac-
curate and comprehensive study of
Shakespeare's life and times, both
to the special student and to the
more generally interested admirer
of the great dramatist.
EMERGENCY APPROPRIA-
TION-On Capitol Hill Monday
the Senate Appropriations Com
mittee approved the Army phases
of the emergency $1,1S2, 900, 900
outlay and took it to the floor for
consideration; while downtown the
War, Navy. and Treasury Depart
ment officials met with more than
1000 leading aircraft manufactur-
ers to gear up warplane produc-
ton to higher levels. On Wednes-
day, the Senate approved unanim-
ously this program for expending
the Nations land and air defenses
by a roll call of IA to O. This mea-
sure which is now being considered
by the House carries the regular
maintenance funds for the military
service, plus the greater part of
the $1,1S2, ,OOO,OOO emergency ex-
pansion asked by the President
last week. On Thursday, the Sen
ate unanimously passed the second
part of the Presidents program, a
STATS, ,756,72S naval appropriation
bill, after but 80 minutes consider
alton. On the same day, Secretary
Morgenthau announced that war
plane construction will be stand
ardized to speed up construction
by means of patent pooling; and he
named a board of design experts
to choose types for mass produc-
ton in many factories at the same
time.

elected 81 delegates to the state
convention at Meriden Sept. IA and

nominate Mayor Jasper McLevy OF
Bridgeport for governor.
State Secretary Martin F. Plum

ering that dissatisfaction in the
ranks of the major parties is even
greater than in 1888, and that the
Socialists have an excellent chance
of exceeding their 10000 vote total
of that year. Many persons, he
said, would have voted for McLevy
but thought he had no chance tc
win, but this year they will cast
their ballots for him.
The party, said Mr.. Plunkett, will
be better organized this fall than
ever before in its history, and will

BUSINESS GOOD

Recent High Levels Still
Maintained Says Dun
and BradStreet

Boston, Aug. 29.-(UP)-BuSiness
| activity in the New England district
held at the recent high levels IN
the past week, Dun & Bradstreet,
Inc, reported today.
Sales of cotton and wooden goods,
meanwhile, were brisk at moderately
higher prices, the trade authority
added. Retail trade was fairly quiet
as is customary at the end Of a
season.
Shoe production receded somewhat
as civilian shoe buyers continued
cautious about making advance
commitments. Early fall shipments
have been sent along to distribu-
tors; further business has come in
very slowly. Government buying
continued to expand, however.
Trading in spot hides was fairly
active and prices firmed. Leather
sales were confined to small fill-in
lots.
Sales of unfinished cotton cloth
spurted to level well above cur
rent mill output. Cloth and yarn
prices firmed. WOODEN and worsted
makers reported many calls for
piece goods, but civilian buying re-
manned quiet.
Ray wool changed hands in good
volume at slightly higher prices as
mills came into the market for sup
plies needed to cover government
