wheat on hand which is enough to
supply the needs of the United Nations
for at least two years. The 800 mil
lion tons of sugar now held in ware
houses is more than a hundred mil
lion tons in excess of the needs
of ourselves and Allies next year.
We are told that there are 30 mil
lion pounds of butter, 223 million
pounds of cheese and 220 million
pounds of condensed milk in storage.
These huge SURPRISES have created a
serious shortage of storage space and
it wouldn't be surprising if the gov
eminent shortly opened up drive
for people to lay in stocks so as to
relieve the situation. It is surpris-
ing to me that restrictions were
placed on the quantity of sugar that
may be bought.
To A Friendly Jury.
The Union for Democratic Action
is reported to have sent out list
containing the names of II non-in-
terventionist Congressman to a group
of liberal newspapermen who are
known supporters of the movement
to purge Congress. They are being
asked to nominate the "ten worst
Congressman" from the list. DR..
James Loeb is Executive Secretary
of the Union. He is a former teach
er of romance languages at North
western University. The return ad
dress on the cards bears the name OF
DR.. Frank Kingdom, president of the
organization. The doctor was born
in England, educated in that country
and only became naturalized citi-
zen of the United States a few years
ago, yet he assumes to tell lifelong
Americans how we shall conduct our
government and that calls to mind
the classic retort of former Senator
Jim Watson to Willkie at the Phila-
delphia convention:
"Jim, I'd like to have your sup
port" Willkie purred.
81 can't vote for you," Watson re-
piled.
"Why?" asked Willkie.
Because I think you are Social
list, not a Republican, Watson
snapped back. 81 knew your family
in Elwood and they were all Social
lists. I have never heard of your
being anything else"
you're a Methodist, aren't you
Jim, and you believe in conversion,
don't you? Don't you believe could
have been converted?"
ooh, yes" snapped Watson. 81

A Sizzling Report.
I notice that most of the large
dailies of the country gave very
little space to the latest report of
the Dies committee, which named
the so-called Union for Democratic
Action as the spearhead of the cam
paign to destroy representative gov
eminent in America. AS active col
laborators in the subversive move
ment it names various Communist
front organizations and five pub
LEGATIONS: Time magazine; The New
Masses and The Daily Worker, both
official organs of the Communist
party; Marshall Fields PM, and the
left wing magazine, The New Re-
public. A large number of indi-
viduals with known Communist con-
nections are also named. I will be
glad to send copy of this report
to anyone upon request so long as the
supply lasts. Every citizen should
have copy so that he may know
what is going on.
Declares for World League.
On Monday of last week, Governor
Stassen addressed the opening ses-
sion of the annual meeting of the
National Governors conference at
which time he proposed a post war
"world association" based upon the
! United Nations and modelled after
the relationship that exists among
the states of the Union in order to
insure peaceful and orderly relations
among the nations of the world in the
future.
The other day was permitted to
read communication from high
government official which went into
some detail as to Americas duties and
obligations after the war. AS in
terpreted the plan it will be proposed
when the time comes to set up sort
of International WPA that is to be
financed by the American people, if
we have anything left when that
time comes. In other words the
United States is to become sort of
a huge banquet table to which all
will be hidden to sit down and par
take. The cost will be borne by
Uncle Sam and Americans will be
expected to do the cooking and serv-
ing, not to mention the dish washing.

Health Ward
Information furnished by Pine County
Nursing Service

Follow-up work on gross defects
that were found last year in the coun-
ty schools by Miss Laura Nelson,
school nurse, are being checked again
this summer to encourage the par
ents to see their family doctor or
dentist to make a diagnosis and rec
ommend treatment. These defects
are mostly teeth, that have started
to decay and in some cases where
the eyes need special care.
The aim of this work is to explain
to the parents the Importance and
value of yearly medical and dental
examination of the child in order
that it may be in the best physical
condition, and as result will be
better able to enjoy and participate
in school and play life.
Parents who have children enter
ing school in September for the first
time, will understand this child will
have a great adjustment to make. It
can be better accomplished if the
child is in the best physical condi-
ton. Many problems in behavior in
a child have been traced to the fact
that there was some physical defect
present which could only be re-
vealed by careful examination.
For this reason parents are urged to
take the child to the family doctor
for an early examination before
school opens. If the child has not
been immunized against diphtheria
or vaccinated against smallpox, it
should be given this added protec-
ton also.

Oceans Of Publicity.
Hardly day passes but I get a
letter from home protesting against
the tons and tons of needless pub
licity that is being put out by the
various governmental agencies. Each
bureau has it's staff of publicity men
and a printing plant which is kept
going day and night. Representative
Roy o. Woodruff looked into the
matter and found that there are be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000 press agents
on the public payroll and the cost
OF these publicity folks in salaries
and operating expenses runs far be-
yond rs million dollars a year. He
was unable to learn how much the
cost exceeded that amount as it is a
carefully guarded secret. Mr.. Wood
ruff also found that it has been nee
essary for the Administration to ap-
point some fifteen thousand censors
to censor the work of these $4,000
and more publicity people.
Great fleas have little fleas upon
their backs to bite 'em,
And little fleas have lesser fleas,
and so ad infinitum.
And the great fleas themselves, in
turn, have greater fleas to 60 on;
While these again have greater still,
and greater still, and so on"
The expense of this gigantic prop
uganda bureau is met out of the 100
million dollar fund that Congress
unwisely gave the President to spend
as he sees fit. Recently the Presi-
dent appointed Elmer Davis as SUI
preme head of publicity relations and
we hope that he will give it the
shakeup that is needed to separate
thousands of useless employees from
the payroll. Mr.. Davis has the con-
fidence of Congress. We are salts
fled that he will do good job if
given free hand.
Family Men Deferred.
On Wednesday of last week the
President signed legislation author
izing deferment of family men from
military service until the supply of
single men not absolutely essential
to the war effort is exhausted.
Coincident with the signing of the
bill, Selective Service Headquarters
established four categories from
which men may be called for serv-
ice. They are: l. Registrars 9TH
erwise qualified for military service
who have no bona fide financial de-
pendents. 2. Registrars otherwise
qualified for military service who
have financial dependents other than
wives or children mentioned in cate
gories three and four. 3. Registrars
otherwise qualified for military serv-
ice who have wives with whom they
are maintaining a bona fide family
relationship in their homes and who
were married prior to December 8,
1941, and at a time when induction
was not imminent. 4. Registrars

supported Mrs. Katherine E. Byron
because I thought that she was en-
titled to finish the term left vacant
by the tragic and untimely death
of her husband, Rep. william D..
Byron. During the present emer-
gency. however. think it important
that the strength of our representa-
ton in Congress should supercede
all other considerations"
Urged to Be Candidate.
Mrs. Byron's statement was as
follows:
Recently I have been giving at
tention to the question whether !
should retire from the campaign
this year. However. the many re-
quests I have had throughout my
District, people urging me to seek
denomination and reelection. to-
gether with my sincere desire to be
of the greatest help IN the war
effort lead me to announce that !
will file my certificate of candidacy
for the Democratic nomination for
Representative for the 9Th District
of Maryland.
There should be only one major
issue before the voters and that is
whether the candidates offering
themselves have supported the Ad-
ministration in all efforts in the
life-and-death struggle which we
are engaged in today, and what
would be the attitude of the candi-
date In the years ahead. My record
is clean. I have supported the Ad-
ministration in its 'all-out war ef-
fort in every manner before Con-
gress and I shall continue to do So -
