LANDON OUT OF STEP

Alf LandOn recently criticized
the Roosevelt administration for
waste and extravaganza and ac-
cused it of bungling leadership.
Possibly the huge war effort of
these dangerous times has let TO
some errors and misjudgment but
Alf Landon is not the one to criti-
cize. One who lives in glass
house should not throw stones.
Had Landon been President it is
quite safe to say that the United
States would have been far less
ready for war than it was when
the attach came. Yet he has the
effrontery to criticize the admin

BY the Old Lamp Lighter

There was no carpet on the
floor. in the old church, and it
was unheated, it being considered
improper that the congregation
should enjoy the comfort of a fire
while listening to the minister and
performing their devotions. The
collection bags were attached to
rods about 10 feet in length and
had a silken fossil and bell which
was used to attract the attention
of sleepy and inattentive members
In 1890, the work of remodeling
began under the supervision of
Mr.. J. d. Middlekauff as contrac-
tor, and the renovated building
was dedicated in April 1891. The
sermon on that occasion was de-
livered by Rev. T. w. Conrad, D.

Before these modern days to
which we are now accustomed. life
was quite different and we did not

contented and happy and lived our
lives in the simple way.

WHAT ABOUT WAGES?

In a recent fireside chat President Roosevelt told Americans that if they worked for wages, they would have to go without higher wages in their particular jobs for the duration of the war
 But in spite of this assurance, reports coming out of the nations capital indicate that the entire wage situation remains confused and unsettled State nnents from Chairman William H. Davis of the War Labor Board imply that the board does not believe that the Presidents reference to wages places ceil ing on existing levels. Yet many economists point out that it will be difficult prevent prices from creeping up unless some method is found for preventing wage increases.
 We think they go farther than that, and say that existing high levels cannot be reduced to fit nor maj incomes unless exorbtant wages being paid on defense projects cut down to a reasonable level
 Surely who turns deaf to the calls of fancy wages in order to stay in the niche where he is most needed should not have to pay more for this war than the next But things stand, he is paying more.
 The labor union principle of blanket wage raises is another thing that must be stopped for the dur ation If raises to be granted, give them on the basis of individual performances if the wage incentive must be brought to bear to keep up defense workers morale
 Prices can be controlled to a certain extent the OPA is showing us But the only reason that prices shot up to where they had to be camped down on, because more purchasers had more money to bid for available products High wages forced the prices up.
 Thus the of the inflatonary price boom, wages, has been ignored for all practical purposes, and the government has jumped on the effect-hgh- CT prices All of which should prove that America is of a backward nation than suspect. We close the back door to keep out the burglars and leave the front door wide open.

CIRCUS FAN ROOSEVELT

Franklin Roosevelt not only keeps hundreds of details of war strat- egy in his head these days, but also he keeps up to date on hun drcd and one other facts about the life of the country which the average citizen does not usually know.
 Discussing circus problems with John and Henry North, owners of Ringing Brothers, Roosevelt asked how they were affected by wartime railroad transportation. Then, be- fore they could answer, he added
 Of course, you have your own equipment and all you need to do is hire an engine"
 Tn other words, the chief rail- road problem today is cars: and if you have your own cars it is not difficult to get an engine to haul them.
 Roosevelt also congratulated the North brothers on doing such a swell job in spite of the war.

largely unwilling slaves. But it will take hard fight ing by the United Nations to release them from that slavery.
 Wars are won by fighting, not by counting on the revolt of war-weary peoples. What happens this week or next on the Russian front will mean much more in the winning of the war than unrest report cd in Munich Naples.
 Alvin J. Steinkopf, Associated Press correspon- dent writes of the hardships endured by the Ger mans and of their Encouragement as they hear Hit Ter talk of a third winter of war.
 But he warns: Tt would be idle to assume that the lack of many things of ordinary living comfort means the nation is on the verge of collapse"
 George Axelsson, Philadelphia Record-New York Times Foreign Service correspondent tells of the Ger mans fear of gas attacks.
 But he warns: "A gloomy German is by no means a beaten German, and the motto We must win should still be assumed to typffy the German state of mind regardless of worries the many present difficulties, including those worries caused by the propaganda of the opponent"
 Greater hardships and greater Encouragement are reported from Italy The Italians, after nearly 20 years of Mussolinis rule, their country de- feated nation if Germany loses, a vassal nation if Germany wins.
 A quarter million German soldiers are scattered throughout Italy, according to the correspondents estimates.
 There seems no more chance of Italy making a separate peace than of Bavaria Prussia making a separate peace.

 It has been more than a year since Wendell Willkie made his fa- nous campaign oratory" slip while testifying before the Senate For eign Relations Committee on Lend Lease legislation. With the coun- try at war, the public has forgot ten about the incident.
 But not isolationist Representative James w. Mott of Oregon.
 The other day he stormed into the Foreign Relations Committee room, demanding the original transcript" of Willkie's testimony. The printed report shows that Will kie was asked about statement he made in 1940, predicting that the U. s. would be at war by April, lS41, if Roosevelt was reelected. He wise-cracked that this was "a bit of campaign oratory."
 Mott told the committee clerk he was convinced that the COP stand ard-bearer had said something stronger and that his remarks had been doctored before being printed. The clerk denied this, but held that even if it were true, it wouldn't be ethical or fair to MT. Willkie" to publicize any corrections which mght have been made in his testi- mony.

HOROSCOPE "Tke sturs incline

THURSDAY, JUNE Il


 Benefic aspects rule powerfully today which should bring happi- ness to many Good news may DC expected under this sway.
 HEART AND HOME: Women are under a configuration which is most promising to them. Girls may expect the culmination of their romantic dreams. It is a happy wedding day and most for tunate for marriage engagements. Success is indicated for brides tf this date; love will finger and pros perity will be easily attained. This is an suspicious sway under which to seek positions of importance. Women of thorough education should aim high in search for con- genial employment.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Oil pro- duction will undergo unusual ex- agencies as demand for gasoline be- comes insistent. The Pacific North west and the New England States, long served by tankers from the Gulf Coast, will feel greatly the continued scarcity of the much needed fuel for trucks and air planes. Transportation difficulties will interfere with the movement of supplies which should be abun- dant at this time.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: Drafting of the special talents and practical ex- perience of men and women will ba one of the Summers big tasks for the United States Government. In building up an army of four mil lion or more, many exemptions will be withdrawn. The nation, slow in realizing the meaning of all-out war, may be inclined to criticize what appear to be extreme and un- necessary measures but the stars presage the need of complete regi- mentation of all citizens. Patriot ism will flame as the events of the Summer are recorded.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS: AS a giant that puts on the pano- ply of war with careful delibera- tion, the United States will be fully prepared for victory after the losses and reverse5 which were unavoid . able while making ready for the most determined offensive ever directed. With the United Nations, the forces of the greatest of re- publics wilt sweep over the world to eventual victory but there are months of supreme struggle before final success is achieved in defeat- ing the Axis, the seers forecast.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury Of year in which war changes will be difficult but beneficial. Many men will prove able soldiers and aviators
 Children born on this day may be gifted to the point cf genius. War babies have promise of suc- cessful careers.

Heinrich Hmmler has taken modest pride in his record Germany's official murderer. He has corpses to his credit than any man alive except Hitler Now Hitler has sent him to Holland.
