spring and his men worked with
him. He had not only their re-
spect but also their friendship.
"Boudreau hasn't been out of col
lege long and he brought the old col
lege spirit back to our club. He re-
fused to let Bob FeIler's loss get
him down in any way. The other
pitchers knew they had to take up
the slack.
Eat this point I'd like to say that
none of us are claiming any PEN
nant. The main idea is to hustle
all the way and win all the games
we can. They say we are playing
far beyond our real strength. That's
something for time to tell"
The Big Change
It was easy enough to see in the
Indians training camp at Clear
water, Fla, that Boudreau had done
q high-class job in the way of switch
ing Cleveland's mental attitude.
There were no longer any trouble
makers around. There were no sore
heads.
Boudreau set up an informal club
room where the bunch could get to-
gether to read, loaf or play cards.
Out on the field they were all hus-
ting, none harder than the young
manager whose attractive personal
ity was no small help.
Exya,a %Lo%
said, II don't know where we'll fin
ish, but I can promise you well
have a team trying hard every Sec
ond of every game"
No one could figure then, with
Feller absent, that the ex-Illini star
was to get the pitching his team
has gotten in the first starting
weeks. Nor quite the heavy hitting.
But B0udreau and his team have
at least shown what a new spirit
can do to squad.
Looking Ahead
1t will take another month to get
the truer picture of the two pennant
races. Despite the present club
standings, the Brooklyn Dodgers
and the New York Yankees are
still the two teams to beat. Late
in May last. spring the Yankees
were seven games out. They picked
up rs games on the Indians from
that point on.
Before the season Leo Durocher
figured that Dodger power would be
more than Cardinal pitching could
meet. Leo had no great respect for
the st. Louis attack, which SO far
hasn't been on the devastating side.
But the Cards are still better hit
ting team than their present mark
ings indicate. And they still have
all the pitching any team needs.
The Cincinnati Reds got away
slowly this spring and they haven't
been flaming balls of fire so far.
But they also have better pitching
than they have shown-and better
ball club, once it moves into its
normal stride.
If any outside team is to crowd
out one Of the top three, rated by
form, it should be Frank Frisch
and his Pirates. They can hit their
share, and if the pitching holds up
they will be threatening factor.
The main test doesn't come until
the athlete has been baked out in
five or six weeks of summer sun.

COMMUNAL FEEDING KITCHENS

! wonder if, in some of our more
crowded industrial areas, we have
not been little slow in developing
communal feeding kitchens where
the workers and their families may
obtain good meals at reasonable
prices. We have talked good deal
about the development of day nurs-
cries, nursery schools and recrea-
tional facilities for older children,
but I do not know how far this has
been actually accomplished through
out the country.
Probably this information will be
coming to us shortly in reports from
the Office of Civilian Defense. I
hope that where exceptionally good
jobs are being done they will be
written up in some detail for the
benefit of other parts of the country.
Unemployment still seems to ex-
list, particularly among older men
and women. I am sorry to say that
our minority groups are still finding
that they are not always given jobs
according to their abilities. Some
times the employer is afraid to be
impartial, sometimes the workers
are prejudiced. The people who
could do a great deal to bring about
change in attitude are the buying
public, and they seem apathetic.

Of from y to per cent on existing
bonds if the remaining income was
subjected to taxation.
Most of the estimated $4,000, ,000,-
900 in State and municipal securi-
ties now are free of Federal taxes
and the committee decided previous
ly to consider only the question of
making future issues taxable. Sec
retary Morgenthau had urged that
the whole field be covered, estimat-
ing this would add S200,000,0 900 to
revenues.
Mr.. Paul's proposal was in a ma
ture of compromise to meet COM
mittee members objections that it
was unfair to impose tax on the
purchaser who had agreed to &C
cept relatively low interest rates on
a bond with the understanding that
it would not be subject to Federal
levies.
To meet this situation, the Paul
proposal would leave tax-free the
income from up to per cent inter-
est on per cent bond, with
levies imposed on the income from
the remaining per cent.
Freight Tax Opposed.
Senator Thomas. Republican, of
Idaho. protested in a brief sub
mitted to the committee that a
House-approved tax of per cent
on freight and express shipments
would discriminate against shippers
of farm and forest products in
States distant from central markets.
The effect of the per cent tax
on freight and express charges
would be to add very greatly to
the cost of shipment of Idaho
products to the markets while in
creasing by much smaller amount
the cost of shipments from less
distant points, Senator Thomas
said.
obviously, there can be no JUS

How to keep cooking
from spelling
your vacation

Like most Of Us, you are probably stay
ing close to home for your vacation this
year-which means that household duties
may 20 on as usual, vacation or no vaca-
tion. But with little clever planning, you'll
be amazed at how much more time there
is for leisure. And you'll find vacations at
home can really be lots Of fun.
Below, the Safew.y Homemakers' Bureau
has suggested several time saving ideas.
See if you don't think they're good ones.
Plan menus ahead OF time Allow plenty
Of variety. including few foods you don't
often buy; but choose things that cook
quickly, or may be partially prepared m
advance. Don't undertake elaborate, time
consuming cookery-nnless that's your idea
Of fun! -
Plan shopping lists with mems.
Streamline your shopping trips to mini
mum. There's no point in spending your
vacation travelling back and forth to the
store. Buy the major part Of your gro
ceres early in the week. Then, in between
times, you'll only need to buy the most
peflshable foods.
b Isisvrsly. Shop early in the day when
stores are less crowded--you are less
rushed-and the selection is better.
b forehonded. Plan foods that can be
prepared in advance. Meat loaves, casse-
roles, nodded salads, puddings and cookies
are good examples.
Be cool. Do your heavy cooking in the
cool of the morning, or even the night be-
fore if possible.
Be smart. Purposely plan meat leftovers
every so often for easy secondary cook
ing Roasts, fried chicken, baked ham, for
instance.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 13. - H. E. Bowman, Treasurer of Boeing Air craft Corporation, told the Senate Finance Committee in a faltering voice today that the pending reve- nue bill would probably lend the existence of the huge company.
 Asserting that the Boeing com- pany would have to turn over 88.75 percent of it's net profits in taxes if the bill becomes a law, Bowman said I'm here to plead to you for the life of this company, because in our opinion, if this tax bill is passed in it's present form, it will probably end it's existence. say this in all seriousness"
 Bowman testified that he was urg- ed by members of the Senate De- fense Investigating Committee to protest against the provisions of the revenue measure.
 He said that because Boeing had suffered heavy losses in the base period of 1886 to 1899 while it was developing the famous Flying Fort resses, it could claim only low invested capital credit, that 966 percent of it's net income would be subjected to the proposed 90 percent excess profits tax.

 Roosevelt noted that the measure provided that commissioned officers on the Surveys active list deemed to be in active military service"
 He said he had been informed that under the provision, all active commissioned men in the Survey, whether in time of war or peace, would be eligible to benefits to which dependents of military personnel are entitled.
 It would be different, the Presi- dent said, if the majority of the Surveys functions were clearly mili- tary or naval.
