Yugoslavia Turns The Tables

One OF the most disheartening things that befell
man, when the prominent paper-hanger entered the
worlds picture, the fact that his greatest power
was invested in Germanys youth. We heard of chill
dren turning against parents because of political beliefs
OF youths reporting lifelong neighbors and friends of
their breaking faith with relatives.
1t was hard to understand that force could be so
great and powerful that it could make the young
forget all those lessons learned at loving parents
knee. The youth of Germany terrorized the old of
Germany for lust of power
But the recent movement by the youth of Yugo-
sava brings us faith in youth under pressure IT,
yearod king upses cabinets edicts and ties by lead

This young king stands a symbol of the indie

Where parents cautious due to fear of the Axis

persecution instead of for fact and humanity and

What will result of Yugosava's display of spirit

WNU Service, 1s4s III Street, N. w.,
Washington, ID. c.
WASHINGTON.-Before long the
government will take steps to give
the American farmer an incentive
for raising more animals and In
creasing the egg and milk output for
this arsenal Of democracy, it can
be safely predicted at this time. Fur
thermore. with the incentive win I'M
doubtedly 60 some type Of guaran-
tee, as In the case Of the manufac-
turer. that the farmer will be pro-
tected at least from possible loss in
such undertakings. At most. he
might even be guaranteed a profit
Here Is the background Of the stu
alton. details of which government
officials are not ready as yet to
make public:
Food ID as much q munition Of
war a. guns. The United States In
pledging Its aid to democracies 10
starting to send food supplies to
them.
Important FoOd-Weapons.
One Of these food-weapons Is
wheat. We have plenty Of that grain.
The department Of agriculture esti-
mates that at present there are
more than So. 200. 900 bushels in ex-
cess Of domestic needs.
Another food weapon, and a vital
one for lighting men, is the proteins
meat, milk, milk products, poultry
and eggs. Rationing Of these prod.
ucts is becoming severe In England.
American agriculture does not have
SURPRISES Of these things. But farms
are the factories where they can be
produced, and we do have SURPRISES
Of one Of the chief raw materials
for the process, namely, corn. Pres
ent estimates indicate that the corn
surplus will reach zoo, ZOO, 900 BUSH
els by October /.
How many more cows, pigs and
chickens do we need in order to be
able to feed ourselves as well as the
fighting democracies? That is hard
question to answer. The department
of agriculture calls it an ''imponder-
able" It also admits that il every
body in this country right now were
getting square meal we would not
have enough Of the protein foods to
60 around.
Hence. the plans-in-the-making to
encourage American farms to
manufacture" proteins in the in
terest of national defense.

But as proof that we Americans are rising earlier

Rural Newspaper Men
Make Good in Washin1fon

Make Good in Warrington
Two small town boys, both trained
on weekly newspapers. have made
good in the radio world in Washing
ton and neither Of them can get the
country out Of his blood and Is proud
Of 1t.
One is lanky, red-haired Hoosier,
Robert M. Menaugh, and the other,
scholarly looking D. Harold Nc
Grath. who grew up in the Cripple
Creek mining district in Colorado.
They are the superintendent, re-
spectively. Of the new house and
senate radio galleries.
My favorite newspaper" says
Bob. lis the oldest in Indiana and
the one used to work on. It's the
Salem Democrat"
McGrath. who has owned two
weekly newspapers. says: II have
made seven auto trips from coast
to coast in the last seven years and
| noticed that the weekly newspaper
is on much more solid basis than
il was when I was a publisher IS
years ago. / still think the weekly
is the best read news publication in
America"
Bob is the veteran Of the two In
radio because it was the house Of
Representatives which first recog-
nized that radio men needed the
same facilities that the members Of
the long-established press gallery
have IL they are properly to cover
the doings Of congress. So in May
of 1899 the lower chamber appropri-
ated money for superintendent and
an assistant and amended its rules
so that radio newsmen had their
own little corner-a pew rallied of
from the visitors gallery right next
to the newspaper mems seats above
the speakers rostrum.
Senate Follows Suit.
The senate. being a more ponder
Gus body, followed suit some months
later.
When the question came up to the
speaker Of the house as to who
would be his choice for the superin-
tendent on his side Of the Capitol.
there wasn't any question about Bob
Menaugh's qualifications. He has
been a well-known figure around the
Capitol ever since he came to Wash

from his own Indiana district.

The cotton and steel shortage in
Britain is threatening morale. A
shortage Of corsets-made Of cotton

history, there is an ancient tale
which makes him a little uncertain
as to who he really is. It seems
that four generations ago two little
boys were stolen from two different
families, the Menaughs and Hins-
leys. by the Indians. One was four
and one was FIVE. Later, a trapper
reported that he had heard that one
OF the boys, he didn't know which,
had died. Still later. the other boy
returned to the village. But which
boy? Six years has passed. The
little fellow had an Indian name and
he had forgotten his own. Both fam
lilies claimed him and finally a pub
lie trial was held and he was award
ed to the Menaughs. Bob is a great
grandson Of that boy.
High School Start.
Bob started newspaper work In
high school, buying an old press and
setting the type himself. Later he
worked on the Salem Democrat, the
oldest newspaper in Indiana. He
says that his greatest thrill came in
speaking on the first national broad
cast celebrating the opening Of the
radio gallery on June 20, 1899, an
honor shared by your correspondent.
McGrath. head of the senate side
started work in 1910 at the age of
10 as a reporter. succeeding Lowell
Thomas on the Victor (Colo.) Rec.
ord. The Record was a four-sheet
daily and McGrath was to have other
reportorial training in Boise and

urge to own a weekly.

The subject Of our conversation

plenty to do.

In far worse shape then It is today"
But still bigger task lies ahead.
Joe Martin told me.
"Our second job" he said, els to
prepare for the situation when the
chaos Of the World war which has
produced the present emergency Is
over. Then it will be the responsi.
bility Of the Republican party to get
back the democratic processes
which are being sacrificed today by
the emergency grants Of power to

OF course, Chairman Martin be.
heves the country will turn to the
Republicans then, as what he calls
stabilizing force. Meanwhile he
says they must continue to police

Probably before this reaches the
public the entire administration Of

Spick And Span

How about Sticking up and making the town look
prosperous this summer? goes against the grain to
have someone criticse the community though it
may be justified. Every town needs improvements it
can't afford but in many wouldn't be expensive to
correct few of the things that cause complaint and
show signs of neglect
We are told that mans personal appearance has
lot to do with his standing in financial way. He is
judged sometimes unfairly, by his appearance and
,munity. We figure that all of this holds true in
regard to town and that surroundings and living
conditions affect the opinion of those who come to do
business here So it is up to us To go about bit of
energetic housekeeping the town.
the project calls for united effort this locality
can get group of pubcspirited folks together to put
the job across. Make this town draw business and
favorable comment its civic pride and enterprise.

Lefty Gomez came to help Joe
