the enemy, the dogs are all then to be turned loose and set on. They will be fresher and finer for having been previously confined, and will confound the enemy a good deal, and be very serviceable. This was the Spanish~method of guarding their marches"
 Canines are not going to be used for actual combat today, but they are being used to guard camps and bases. It is amusing to note that here is another of Franklins many ideas that have proved practical after two centuries.
 A group organized by The Frank lin Institute in Philadelphia is at the moment bringing Franklin for ward as one of Americas great men in the belief that a new awareness of his ideas and ideals will strength en the morale of America. The group is known as The National Franklin Committee. It is offering, without charge, to interested parties background material, activities pro- grams, articles and other publica- tions. These are available at the headquarters of The Committee, Benjamin Franklin Parkway at 20th street, Philadelphia, Pa.

Dog Drafting Idea
 For Army Not New
Benjamin Franklin Made Suggestion zoo Years Ago;
 Canines Good for Guarding Camps and Bases

Recent induction of dogs for serv- ice in the army is not, however sur prising, a new idea, for Benjamin Franklin suggested the use of dogs in warfare nearly two hundred years ago.
 Today's army is training the dogs for sentry duty, teaching them to accompany soldiers on guard and to growl at the approach of a stranger. Benjamin Franklin wanted to ex- tend their duties to participation in actual combat.
 It was Franklin's idea to use the animals against the Indians, who were threatening Philadelphia in 1755, and he believed that they would help to throw the enemy into confusion.
 InNa letter to his friend Conrad Weiser, Franklin explained his idea. The dogs, he wrote, should be large, strong, and fierce; and every dog led in a slip string, to prevent their tir- ing themselves by running out and in, and discovering the party by barking at squirrels, etc. Only when the party come near thick woods and suspicious places, they should turn out a dog or two to search them.

built and upon which we rely not only for victory but also for re- mobilization and future prosperity.
 Human Side
 "In developing such a program, we must never be unconscious of the human side of rehabilitation. It is well to note, in this ccnnec- tion, that there has been some re- cent consideration by Congress re- garding continuance of the pay of men in the armed forces for as long as a year after the war is over. Broader provisions regarding serv- ice mems debts and obligations are also in the process of being enacted.
 "In analysing these proposals we should have in mind that if this is not done, we may well be faced with the postwar re-establishment of the relief programs of the depres- sion years. Continuing payment of wages to service men for @ year after their return would make possi- ble better reorientation on the part of the Individual.

URGES INDUSTRY DEVELOP IN MID- WEST AND SOUTH

St. Louis, July l2. CUP)-Revlsion of the American economic structure to remove 8 production bottleneck" and enable the United States to participate in unrestricted world trade and meet the competition of It's postwar rivals is proposed by the Mississippi Valley Association.
 Lachlan Macleavy, president of the Mid-C Continent association of industrial, commercial and agri- cultural interests in g states, scored "uneconomic concentrat ton of industry" in a statement urging development of industry in the Middle West and South.
 '"The nations wartime crisis in transportation emphasizes the un- economic concentration of indus try in sections remote from raw materials and fuel" he declared. Tt is the economic waste of trans portation facilities in cross-hauling that has created one of the serious bottlenecks of the production front"
 The North Atlantic region, where much of the nations industry Is cen- tered, faces Q critical shortage of fuel oil and coal, he said, adding thatthat it also must import or bring from distant points most of the raw materials its factories process, at 8 time when submarine warfare and the demand for shipping have placed a tremendous strain on our railroads"
 Submarine Free Route
 Macleay cited the recent author ization of two huge aluminium plants" in that section which, he said, will require about 2,50o,000 tons of coal annually to be moverd 600 to 300 miles for the processing of aluminium which "comes largely from smelters in the South and Southwest, even more distant"
 These plants, he claimed, should have been built in the Middle West, where we already have an alumi- mum industry close to the coal fields and where the Mississippi river pro- vides submarine-free, all-water route for the movement of bauxite from South America through the port of New Orleans and from the nearby mines of Arkansas"
 If this governments policy, enum- ciated in the Atlantic Charter, of free access to essential raw mater ials by all nations is to prevail after the war, it means the United States must re-orient its economic struc- ture," according to Macleay,
 Tt is much less expensive to ship finished products to market than to ship raw materials long distances for processing. We must eliminate expensive and wasteful cross-haul- ing. We must develop an industrial structure which can compete with other countries in the markets of the world.
 By-Products for Livestock
 '"This means we must develop our industry in the Mid-Continent area, in which the centers of nearly all of our raw materials are located. It means that everything which is pro- cessed from agricultural products

St. SwitIli1l! Forty Days of Clear, Cool Weather Com- ing If Legend Is
 Trustworthy
Keep a close lookout on

Keep a close lookout on the weather today, folksl
 This is St. Swithin's Day!
 You know the old story about St. Swithin and the legend con- nected with his anniversary ever since. July 18th is the day that decides what type of weather we'll have for the rest of the sum- mer just as ground-hog day de- termines winters fate early in February.
 If it remains clear on St. Swithin's Day there'll be 40 more days of pleasant weather. But if it rains, there'll be forty days of rain.
 That's the legend and being just legend you either accept it or you don't. The official weather prognosticators never have accepted it and anyway this is wartime so you're not supposed to predict weather for forty days in advance.
 Maybe St. Swithin will observe the military censorship, too.

Urging the purchase of War Bonds of the Series F and G types as an excellent means for the in- Vestment of reserve funds for indus try'S postwar reconversion costs Henry H. Heimann points out in the Monthly Business Review ot the National Association of Credit Men released today, that "these bonds likewise provide one of the very best investments that corpora tions can make if they must build reserves to meet maturing issues of an extended nature.
 Corporate reserves in the form of War Bonds serve 8 three-fold purpose. First, they help provide the government with funds to pay for the materials necessary to win this war. Second, they contribute toward the anti-inflationary pro- gram and thus add to the possibility of more stable future for all bus mess. Third, they represent a security that not only yields sat- isfactory rate of interest and can- aot depreciate in price. but also has the backing of the United tSates of America"
 Series F Bonds
 Tn contrast to the Series E Bonds, which are available only to indi- viduals, MT. Heitmann emphasizes that "the series F Bonds have 12 year appreciation period and are is- sued at "A per cent of maturity value, with an investment yield of approxi- mately two and one half per cent while the Series G Bonds are 12- year current income bonds issued at par and bearing interest at the rate of two and one half per cent annually.
 Tt is the Series F and G that are so well l-adapted for investment of corporate reserves since the maxi mum holding can be as high as one hundred thousand dollars annually for the aggregate of the two series Either of these series can be regis tered in the name of corporation which is not the case with Series E Bonds. Thus postwar reconver- sion costs can be anticipated and funds to meet them can be invested safely"
 Postwar Aid
 Discussing postwar aid for busi- ness and individuals. MT. Heimann says that If the proposed postwar ;ax credit program is finally adopt d it will, of course, provide great est benefits for those firms whose vulnerability to, the 94 per cent ex- cess profits tax is greatest.
 Rebate of excess profits taxes over 80 per cent currently appears to be favored in Congress. This re- pate is a sound measure. While the }4 ner cent rate on excess profits will drain off almost entirely pres ent earnings, and thereby provide added sums for current Treasury financing, the possibility of rebate after the war of fixed percentage will supply additional stimulus fol holding down costs and thus aid ir reducing the financial burden of the war;"
 In developing the current tax bill however, Congress might well, ht says, also enact proposals that cer- porations and individuals investing in War Bonds should be granted ta1 credit for at least portion of tht amount of the non-negotiable, non interest-bearing bonds they pur. chase.
 Business concerns, he adds, should likewise be granted permission tt build, reserves against postwar losses from price-inflated inven tories.
 "These are two instances of tht consideration that must be given. MT. Heimann states, Ito policie! that wil lhelp conserve the great in dustrial establishment ithat we have

must be made in this area, where the by-products without waste or transportation loss can be used to feed its livestock.
 We should distribute small plants throughout the grain belt for the manufacture of alcohol for conver- sion into explosives and synthetic rubber"
 Macleay pointed out that the Mid- Continent area produces more than three-fourths of the nations nve- stock, grains, cotton, soft coal, pe- troleum, natural gas, iron ore, sul- phur, bauxite and potash, and in ad- dition "has the finest railroads in the world, a system of 1000 miles of navigable inland waterways, excel lent ocean ports and a network os highways and skyways."

Cubs Give Up
Night Ball Hopes

CHICAGO, June I (INS).-The
possibility of night baseball for
the Chicago Cubs in 1912 has gone
glimmering, it was learned today.
Owner p. K. Wrigiey had equip
ment ordered for Wrigley Field
when the Japs raided Pearl Har-
Dor. He turned il. over TO the
government shortly after this, and
made a few overtures to the Chi
cago White Sox suggesting that
the Cubs be allowed to play some
night games in the Sox' Comiskey
Park. This got nowhere.
Then Wrigley got the idea he
might be able to improvise a
system by assembling a
large number of bulbs from his
other holdings and erecting them
on wooden poles at Wrigley Field
until he was free TO purchase
regular lighting equipment. Now
he has decided this plan is not
feasible.

Arcaro turned in one of the poorer

Arcaro, who discovered that the
secret of getting the most out of
Whirlaway is to let him loaf along

how many lengths he falls behind,
must have forgotten about Market

pretty much the same kind of run
