nURING the hearings on the
II Interior Appropriations Bill.
our Bob Jones, Congressman from
the 4th District, put some pointed
questions to Secretary Ickes about
contracts and Tommy Corcorans
influence.
Mr.. Ickes was vague and nom
revealing, but Democratic members
saw political dynamite in the dis
cussion and struck out the ques-
tons and answers.
Naturally no report OF this will
have appeared in the daily papers.
TT is becoming more and more
L understood that the position OF
influence in the Supreme Court oc-
cupied by Chief Justice Hughes, is
being definitely taken over by JUS
tice Frankfurter, who speaks for
the New Deal Majority on the
Court.
THE defense investigation being
L conducted by Senate Com
mittee under the ChairmaIship OF
Senator Truman, Democrat Of Mis-
souri, is bringing some interesting
facts TO light.
Fort Meade, Maryland cost Fl
million dollars in comparison to an
original estimate OF 10 million. Fort
Leonard Wood, Missouri actually
cost IS million as against an orig
inal estimate OF million. Much OF
this increased cost is charged to
delays and inadequate planning.

Seized Germon
Films in New
Morch of Time

Americans, anxious about the flu
ture and what it may hold in store
for them, are today following close
ly the debate in Congress over aid
to Britain. Gut no matter how hard
they look or how much they read
they will not find clearer, more
comprehensive presentation of this
vital subject than in the latest
March of Time film, Uncle Sam
The acknowledgement currently
showing at the Kootenai theatre.
Seeing the new March of Time
is like witnessing first-hand all the
aspects of the problems involved in
aid to Britain. You see exactly
what America is thinking, saying
and doing, the viewpoints of both
the interventionists and the isola-
tionists. what England is doing, and
what the picture is from the Ger
man side of the fence.
From the Britist side you see
raging fires and appalling wreck
age amid the wall of the afraid
alarm. You see, from Stuka dive
bomber. British convoy under at
tack. You see the r. A. F. hit back
fiercely at Nazi Germany's bases
along four thousand miles of Eu-
ropean coastline-Nom the far
northern fjords Of Norway, all the
way down to Spain.
The March Of Time then takes
you inside Nazi-dominated Europe
where some IS million conquered
people have been reduced to slavery
and are being worked to the limit
of their endurance to build the new
and greater Nazi Germany. You see
French prisoners at work, recon
structing railroads and bridges, cad
dened French children holding out
their pals to receive soup rations
from their conquerors, the captive
people of Paris listen tearfully to
! the newest regulations imposed by
their Nazi regulations broadcast
over loud-speakers in the streets.
Then the film takes you to Amer
lea, where u. S. isolationists and
/ interxentionists are engaged in
1 heated debate over aid to Britain
i March of Times Uncle ,Sam-Tho
Non Belligerent' gives clear pic
tur9 of the fight, with Senator Bur
!! ton K. Wheeler, Verne Marshall OF
No Foreign War committee, Presi-
] dent Roosevelt and cross section
of average u. S. citizens speaking
out their reasons either for giving
or withholding aid to Britain DR.
/ George Gallup comments on the
! ballots in his recent poll which
/ showed that 60 per cent of the
American people favor helping the
British even at the risk of war
This first-hand picture Of the
grave problem the u. S. faces today
is presented in the best March OF
Time tradition The extraordinary
scenes Of the situation in Europe
! were filmed by official German
Army cameramen and were a part
of the weekly Nazi newsreels
Deutsche Wochenschau, intended
for showing in South America only
The German material in Uncle
Sam-The acknowledgement was
siezed by British contraband con-
troll officials and then obtained from
the Canadian Film Commissioner
for exclusive use by The March of
Time.

Feats in Tax-Eatins

Some kinds of transportation are unable to stand
on their own feet. To keep them going it has been
necessary to pour billions of your tax dollars into
them.
The inland waterways probably the worst
examples. For instance, the Upper Mississippi
River from minneapolis to st. Louis.
When you total up the tax dollars that have been
lavished on this improvement and figure interest
at per cent and add the annual coct of maintaining
dams, locks and charmed, you discover that to pro-
vide Cheap" transportation for those who ship
by river, it is costing the taxpayers about 50. SO
for every ton of freight foated.
The subsidy alone c77ounts TO about tuice
Uhat the railroads uould haze charged for
hauling the traffic!
This particular kind of transportation-slowc
than any other, frozen up completely for five months
of the year. and contributing no taxes at all
requires taxpayers to pay out about $40 for every
81 it saves a shpperl
Highway transportation also leans heavily on the
taxes paid by the owners of homes and farms and
by other general taxpayers
All of the various kinds Of special taxes imposed
to be, and mounting to really impressive totals
have been equivalent only to about one half
of the cost Of maintaining and improving highways
bridges, roads and streets.
And this leaves nothing to compare with the taxes
imposed railroad transportation for the support
of schools and the various other functions of govern
ment-which take about 10 cents of every dollar
the railroads collect from their patrons
Against such competitive odds as these, your rail-
road fights to maintain that volume of traffic with
out which unit costs 60 up-for railway trans
portation is mass transportation, dependent
on volume to reduce costs.
The key to the loDest possible railroad rates
obviously is VOLUME-not the artificial dioer-
sion Of traffic to tax eating kinds c. 4-~-.
