eral, tall, gaunt, granite-fea-
- tured Raymond Massey is the
man who looks and acts like Abraham
Lincoln n an indelible impression
they got from seeing him in either
the stage or the screen version of
ABE Lincoln in Illinois," To Holly
wood producers he is great actor who
loves and lives in the East most of the
time, but goes to the Coast every sum-
mer to make couple of pictures
Then, for the rest of the year, he can
pick the kind of legitimate plays he
likes to be in, and go on living in his
New York City house, which is big
but not pretentious, and where the
food is something his friends remem-
Der and talk about This summer,
since the closing of THE Doctors
Dilemma in which he played oppo-
site Katharine Cornell, he has been
making a Cecil De Mille-directed pic
ture Reap the Wild Wind"
To his friends. Raymond Massey -
apart from setting wonderful table
for them - is lovable person, serious
and often intense, yet just as often
capable of concentrated, dry humor
that explodes like delayedaction
bomb Of laughing gas. He is great
reader and the walls of both the big
living room and the small sitting room
are lined to the ceiling with books.
He dresses we'll, the way a man does
who always buys the best and then
wears his things for years.
Though he has identified himself
so strongly, in our minds, with the
American tradition, Raymond Massey
was Canadan-born and his brother
is Canada's present ambassador to
the Court of St. James But there is
strong American connection, for the
original Massey family settled in
Salem, Massachusetts,, in 1929, and
many members of both his fathers
and mothers family fought in the
Revolution and in the Civil War.
Just youngster ready for college
at the time of the First World War,
Raymond took an active part. He en-
rolled in an officers training corps,
became captain in the Canadian Field
Artillery, fought in France, was
wounded at Ypres and, during con-
valescence, was military instructor at
Yale and Princeton Universities.
1t was not until after the war that
his career as an actor began. But
within four years he was part owner
and manager of the Everyman Thea
ter in England, and was appearing in
the top-fight British plays. In Amer
ica his stage success has been equally
great and he has made a number of
fine pictures, including Things to
Come" and the Prisoner of Zenda"
Like many actors, during a theatri-
cal season, Mr.. Massey turns time
inside out, eating his eggs and bacon,
sausage or omelet at midnight after
the show. About food, in general, he
says he eats everything and hasn't
any prejudices. His wife, however,
thinks differently, for he dislikes

citizens, '"'I'l give you the answer
concerning sport. happen to be
in a position to know what is taking
place. We will have more sport
than ever before, but most of it will
be in army camps. I mean both
baseball and football, especially
football next fall.
"By that time We'll have around
1000, 900 in army or navy life. Their

be sport. There have
been so many turned
down through physi-
cal disabilities that
we will soon have a
rush on athletes. It
will not be a sur
prise to see an ap-
peal made to all col
lege athletes and to
professional athletes
of the right age to
enlist.

The Netu Schedule

SCI think I can give you the new
schedule, as army and navy Off
Gals think it will pan out. There
will be baseball and football games,
plus boxing matches, between regi-
ments and divisions and armies.
These men IN camp will need some
thing beyond the average to break
up their routine existence. They
won't get this from entertainers, ex-
cept in part. In fact, they can only
get it from sport, and that will
necessarily mean the top-ranking
part of sport. s.. ..r
''It will mean the best of our
football players, college and pros.
1t will mean many of our better
big league and minor league base
ball players. They will have to come
in, either from the draft, or through
the force of public demand. The
old term Stacker proved very eff
fective in obtaining recruits during
the World war.
"They won't be getting any extra
money for this service. There will
be no cashing in. 1t will be compa-
ny against company - regiment
against decentralization against
division-arny against army, and
then you'll see some real competi-
ton.
"This means we will suddenly
have the greatest amateur swirl in
our history. We will have games
that will overshadow Michigan and
Minnesota, or all the bowl contests.
They will take place all over the
map. But they will be army and
navy contests in which Bob Feller
may be pitching against Bucky Wal
tiers or Joe Louis may be facing
Billy Conn-not for World Series
money or 40 per cent of the gate
receipts, but for the pride and honor
of the regiment or the division. Just
the way that Gene Tunney fought in
France.
"You may not believe me, but this
is what will take place"
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1941-01-09

ried athletes earning fame or mon
ey next year will not be popular
heroes. Certainly not with the divi-
siOns scattered all over the United
States. I think you can get their
viewpoint. The luck of the draft
won't be taken into consideration.
They will not be cheering stars who
are young, strong and well fixed
financially. 1t will be just as it was
in the World war more than 20
years ago.
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1941-01-09
The Right Angle

This seems reasonable enough. In
the last war 1 know the feeling en-
listed men had against those who
were still cashing in on their physi-
cal ability to play some game. 1t
was bitter.
This time we are not at war. But
in many respects camp life is worse
than war, when it comes to the mat
ter of dull routine. This routine will
have to be broken up. The only an
swer is sport. With million or two
million men in camp, averaging less
than $50 month from private to
lieutenant, you can understand how
they would feel and their people
would feel about younger and
stronger athletes hopping up finan-
cially.
You may say this is unfair-that
the luck of the draft is all that
counts. Well, the luck of the draft
won't count with those fellows get
ting up at reveille and waiting for
taps. Not unless human nature has
changed completely.
They didn't ask for it, either, but
they got it. They are not going to
start cheering for some young fell
low around 81 or % or 25, making
the headlines or getting big money,
through physical skill, while they
are carrying gun or driving a
tank or flying a plane for buck a
day and no headlines.
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1941-01-09
A Change Due

So far the volunteer enlistment
and the draft seem to be unimpor-
tant. Just wait a few months. 1t
will be quite different. There will be
a tremendous change in mental at
titude on the part of the public, as
well as those moving from reveille
to taps.
There still will be big-league base
ball and college and pro football
games. But I think there still is a
big chance these will be secondary
matters to army and navy sport.
Kids who, perhaps, are not too
husky, who have had to make their
sacrifices, are not going to cheer for
younger and better athletes, perhaps
better off financially, who are still
riding atop the waves of gold and
fame.
This army-navy matter is some
thing that is just starting. Normal
ly it is a wonderful thing to be
young, fast and strong. But the
world today is upside down. The
young, the fast and the strong must
face the catapult of fate. The man
in demand will be the athlete, who
hasn't bad eyes or fiat feet.

prices of most farm commodities
have advanced sharply recently, but
it should be borne in mind that the
prices quoted in August do not as a
rule represent the prices the farmers
receive from his growing crop" he
said. "Fifteen-cent cotton today 30
far as the farmer is concerned means
fifteen cents for the growing crop.

the farmer around 91ac; actually the

are intended for Importation into the
United States. Where such inspec-
lions disclose that animals or their
products neither originate in coun-
tries infected with the diseases de-
scribed in the bill, nor are themselves
infected, the Secretary is required to
certify such facts and permit their i'm
portation into this country.
Similar to the inspection provisions
of the Lenroot-Taber milk and cream
import law, reciprocal inspection is
permitted when undertaken by a duly
accredited department Of any foreign
government
In defining the term foreign coun-
try for the purpose of his legislation,
Mr.. Andersen pointed out that he has
taken care that there will not be rep
etition of the recent TERRA del Fuego
incident. "On the flimsy pretext that
this section of Argentine and Chile,
separated from the mainland by the
Magellan Straits, could be considered
a country separate and apart from
either Argentine or Chile and that
the rinderpest and foot and mouth dis
ease quarantine imposed against these
countries might not apply to 1t, we
would permit the importation of sheep
and their frozen or chilled meats from
that section of the quarantined coun-
tries" he charged.
"a foreign country according to my
BILL" he stated, will be any and all
component parts of foreign govern
ment whether territories provinces or
other subdivisions"
Coincident with the introduction of
the bill, livestock and dairymen re-
called the twenty-three years of ex-
perience of this country to eradicate
the damaging effect of bovine tuber-
culosis and Bangs disease. At the
cost of $47O,O00,000 to the federal and
state governments, livestock and dairy
cattle producers, these diseases have
been brought under almost complete
control
The bill has been referred to the
house committee on agriculture and
it is indicated that livestock and dairy |
cattle producers will press for early
of the bill by that COM
mittee.

The "Linder plan" would also pro
vide that prices on farm products be
automatically adjusted to price fluc
tuations of articles the farmer must
buy with 192O-29 prices as base.
Under the "Linder plan" congress
would also be asked to study sugges-
tions that to provide true parity for
farmers the above basic prices should
be increased thirty-three and one-third
percent. This suggestion, Under
asserted, would be based on the fact
that reduced acreage, protective tar.
if, high labor costs and rural educa-
ton introduced since the 'horse and
buggy" days of 1920-29 have resulted
in a corresponding increase in the
farmers necessary expenses.
Actual parity is not the average
price of farm products over a given
number of years, but the relationship
between what the farmer gets for his
products and what he must pay for
his commodities"
Under stated that, "Only two
classes of people in America today
are actually working below parity IN
the defense programme farmer who
raises the food and clothing and the
boys who have got to carry the guns
and do the fighting"
Farmers are in a desperate situa-
ton, Mr. Under said. "Sixteen-cent
cotton is only fifty percent of parity.
We already have price fixing on what
the farmers buy. If you go into
hardware store in Dublin, Georgia,
you can buy a tractor for the same
price you would pay in Dallas, Texas
with some slight variation in freight
rates.
Under the Under plan the prices
quoted above would be the lowest
prices that the farmers could receive
