HOOVER HoLDovER

Not many people realize it, but Jesse Jones is the. only Roosevelt Cabinet member who is a holdover from the Hoover Administration (Henry L. Stimson was brought into the Roosevelt Cabinet after serving under Hoover but only after being out of office seven years) It was Herbert Hoover who first appointed Jesse to the Reconstruction Finance Corporation, and there are many around the President who very sin cerly believe that Jesse, today still represents Herbert Hoover inside the Cabinet more than he represents the New Deal. .
 They like Jesse, bcause he is one of the most genial men in Washing ton; but they are convinced he has undone Roosevelt reforms-through his control of loarls-f faster than the President has been able to pass re- forms through Congress.
 Take, for instance, Jesse Jones current contract with the Aluminium Company of America No company has been more consistently prose cuted for old deal monopolistic prac- tices than this giant corporate child of Andrew w. Mellon Ii, has even been indicted criminally for con- spring with Germany to limit mag nesium a material vital to the manufacture of airplanes. And every housewife has been asked to scrape together her old pots and pans as a result of Alcoa's short-sighted mon opoly.
 However, RFCzar Jones has just negotiated a contract with Alcoa whereby he hands them several mil lion dollars to build new aluminium plants and Alcoa, with absolutely no expense to itself. builds three plants at IVA, Bonneville and Mas sina, N. Y, then writes its own ticket regarding their management and operation.

Japanese to Blame
Seattle Times)


 The small run of salmon in the Bristol Bay area this year gives emphasis to the importance of thwarting encroachments of Japanese fishermen.
 The failure of the catch of red salmon is be- leved to be partly the result of Japanese fishing in Boring Sea in 1886 and 1897, the years when the 1941 produced.
 Even the diligent patrols maintained this season by the Coast Guard and the Fish and Wildlife Serv- ice did not altogether prevent Japanese activiy At least Japanese fishing fleet consisting of a mother" ship, eight large trawlers and number of smaller craft, was operating in American waters, and was photographed in action.
 Some cannerymen hold that such operations broke up the schools of salmon, making it difficult for the American fishermen in Bristol Bay to catch them.
 There must be no relaxation of vigilance by the patrol in the Boring Sea. The United States gov- ernment i'll afford to relax it's vigorous stand protect the salmon the seal herds the otters and other valuable resources that abound in Alaskan waters.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 2s

Benefic aspects dominate today, but the morning is under adverse influences. It is a fortunate date for signing legal papers. Aviators should be careful for there is an ill omen for air travel.
 HEART AND HOME: This is a lucky day for receiving letters or invitations. It is not suspicious for girls who make new friends among the eligible young men, for the men may be critical and elusive. Training for defense is held re- sponsible for cynicism due to too much effort to distract attention from war possibilities Informal Inequalities will be fortunate while this sway continues.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: As citi- zens of the United States feel the pinch of war restrictions they may be inclined to study the scheme of trade and commerce which im- pelled Americans to sell to warning nations materials and products that foresight warned them to con serve. Desire for profit caused i'm mense shipments of scrap iron to Japan which needed it for muni- tions, and our oil has been sent out in floods to the Orient when it was not necessary to study the evil portents in the heavens to know that such policy of ap- peasement and financial gain would become boomerang.
 NATIONAL AFFAIRS: Current events win inspire serious snG of flaws in our methods of applied democracy. The stars are read as giving hope of raising again the standards of right living. Truth is to take the place of treacAery. honesty is to supplant double dealing among the peoples ofttlae world. The Golden Rule will be ap- piled in measuring human rela- tions, but not until atonement has been made, in blood and agony. for the shames and wrongs that existed even in a period of peace and plenty.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS:
 Labeled as crusader in world at war, the United States reveals the influence of the Sun andSour ruling planet in the sign of Can cer. Subjects of the water sign feel the urge to help all who call for aid. No other country ever has given so unendingly as ours and we shall continue to share our wealth with all who require our splendid generosity. Our allies will benefit directly, and indirectly many who belong to hostile 2 Taa- tions will partake of our muhlifi- cence
 Persons whose birthdate 1t is have the augury of year ofssuc- cess, but there is a sign that warns of possible losses or tem- porary annoyances.
 Children born on this day prob- ably will be ambitious and able to assure brilliant careers. They will be talented and industrious.

Tackle CoIiber at G. IT,:
7erps Are Short-Enders

Not much has been heard this
the giant tackle heralded as bud
ding all-America when the curtain
folded on the 1910 campaign. Big
AL, the Nations champion shot
putter, was certain to improve with
regular work. the smart boys said.
This was supposed to be his year.
So, thinking the Hoyas' forgotten
man had been overrated and was
merely playing the course in par we
queried the coaching staff with the
idea that maybe he had Topped.
Maybe big AL merely was big, a
good weight man, but shy on the
requirements for first-rate tackle.
"Shucks, no." doomed Head Coach
Jack Hagerty when it was suggested
Blozis was a bust Just give me

tackles
Expect Too Much Of Him.
"Just because guy isn't in on
every play. blocking every kick or
falling on every loose ball the spec
tators think he's no good" said Line
Coach "Mush' Dubofsky. 'Lemme
tell you something. Blozis is one of
the greatest tackles Georgetown
ever had and I'll put him up against
anybody in the country-barring
none. I've played pro football and
I've seen lot of good men and
let me tell you, AL Is one of the
best"
"He gets my vote" said End Coach
George Murtagh. 1--WE never seen
a big guy any faster or who loves
to play more than he does. Jack
talks about having two like him. but
We'll be lucky If we come up with
one. He's got everything in my
book"
We understood Blozis didn't shape
up we'll against Gil Bouley, Boston
Colleges candidate for the all
America accolade, in their recent
duel. but Hagerty scoffed at that.
1--WE leave a wide gap in the line
and Bouley was fast enough to
get through before Blozis closed 1t
AL did look bad on some plays, but
he also foxed Boley couple OF
times and if he had been outplayed
by Bouley it would be no disgrace
That guys an all-America If ever

AS for Blozis, he isn't concerned
whether he wins national recogni.
ton, or even gets his name in the
lineup, as long as he plays. He's
gifted with the ideal temperament
| for a lineman, not to mention built
for the role. He really likes foot
ball and prefers 1t to putting the
shot. although he has won reams
and reams of publicity for merely
tossing the iron ball.

remarked that AL didn't seem tc

Texas State folks will want proof
in affidavit form.

is this red-headeo, chunky run

East Texas history.

| the word-that he washes and irons

through school and cuts those cor

| Meeks came to East Texas State
as a gift. He was a star at Okla
homa Baptist University. but foot
ball was abandoned there last year.
And what break for East Texas!
He was run, passed and converted
for 95 of his teams 1872 points, and
counting 588 yards carrying the ball
has rolled up l 489 yards in seven
! games. His highest completion
record in one game this season was
II out of IA for 118 yards.
AS a high school senior he gained
an all-Oklahoma quarterback berth
and as a sophomore at Oklahoma
Baptist repeated the feat.
He will be 81 years old next
month and will play another sea-
son at East Texas unless the Army
takes him.
