Portable shoes. So what about those
slackers in your shoe-wardrobe
that balk outright at going into
active service?
The answer is: Convert these

servioeable footwear. You can, by
having a shoe-man make simple
repairs: or by having a skilled
shoe-surgeon perform some little
known operations.
Take, for instance, those spiked
heels that make loafers out of
shoes, simply because you can't
afford to teeter on your war job.
BY having one lift Topped off the
heel, you can usually make the
shoe longer and more comfort

sometimes lick the problem by
having a too-arched shank re-
placed with a lower shank and
having the height of the heel re-
duced proportionately.
Where fragility of the heels.
rather than. excess height, is at
fault, you can quite often have
these insecure props replaced with
built-up leather heels which have
more depth and width.

them let out at the seams is no

Good Friday

Even if people are not adherents
of the Christian religion, they
would probably admit that Jesus
Christ led a wonderful life of hu-
man service, and that putting him
to death on the cruel cross was an
act of atrocious outrage. Here
was man who spent his life doing
good, with no thought of selfish
advantage. The rulers of his time
put him to death because they
feared he would interfere with
their selfish actions.
So it was a dark day for the
world when that bright and noble
life met. its end. The ancient
churches called it Good Friday"
They thought his death set at work
new forces which would redeem
the world. 1t is day of lamenta-
tion that such things can happen
because of the hardness Of men.

Market SALES
FOR GRAIN
DECLINES
Grain Markets Weaken AS
Demand Slackens and Liqui-
dation Continues; Flax Only
Exception to Downtrend
For Week.

All grains with the exception of
flaxseed worked irregularly lower
during the week ended February g.,
according to the Department of Agri-
culture. The market generally was
under influence of conflicting factors.
On the one hand, there was the fea-
ture of the price control bill which
forbids the establishment of price
ceilings on grain at levels less than
1900 of parity. On the other hand,
there was the level-headed desire to
keep food and feed costs at a reason
able basis consistent with the enor-
nous supplies on hand especially
since farm prices as a whole have
now risen to 1929 of parity. Trade
in the basic futures was quite thin
and prices therefore weakened readily
on even moderate amount of iqui-
dating sales. Flax showed indepen-
dent strength ON the OPA announce
ment of an upward revision in the
price ceiling on some fats and oils.
WHEAT: The minimum sales of
pooled wheat during the period ending
February IA, 1912, will be the same
as that during the last half of jan
uary, which was Ice per bushel above
the applicable 1941 loan value at term
inal locations and 19c above the loan
rate at country locations. Sales of
1899 and 1910 crop wheat by the CCC
totaled nearly 26,O00,000 bushels dur
ing January which brought the total
to 44,637000 bushels and left 128,981,-

TALKS OF MANY
THINGS With FDR

WASHINGTON (FP) - President
Roosevelt's informal war labor cabi-
net" discussed "shoes and ships and
sealing wax" at its first meeting Feb
ruary 6, it appeared, as members of
the six man group referred inquiries
back to the President.
Also attending the meeting were
Sidney Hillman, former associate d.
rector-general of the OPM, and Anna
Rosenberg, New York regional direc-
tor of the Social Security Board who
was named secretary of the group.
1t was reliably reported that prior
to the meeting Hillman submitted his
resignation as director of the labor
division of the War Production Board
to the President but it could not be
learned whether new job for Hill
man was discussed with the cabinet
Following the hour and a half ses-
sion with the President, the six men,
three from the ALL and three from
the CLIO, had lunch together and pre-
sumably talked some more. Their
next visit to the White House is

LOBBYIST
vULGARLY
RANK
Sen Byrd, Protested Lover
OF Economy in Government
And Ardent Reactionary,
Gets Setback From Blunt
ness of Witness.

WASHINGTON - (FP) - Senators
were set back on their heels here
February as James E. Barnes, can
ny, veteran lobbyist for the Todd
Shipyards Corp. blandly admitted that
his firm was making 5000 profit
on its investment and suggested that
the fault lay with congress for not
passing a decent excess profits tax
law.
Barnes appeared before the senate
naval affairs committee in order to
correct" statement by the special
senate committee Investigating ma
tional defense. He wanted to point
out that his statement referred to
the last war, not the present one.
Before Barnes left the witness
stand, however, he told the committee
that the navy had voluntarily offered
his corporation a shipbuilding con-
tract based on rates approved by the
MIRA when business was slack and
overhead high. Those rates resulted
in a 62%o profit in some instances.
The navy, it was revealed, paid the
company's wage costs plus 1919 to
cover overhead plus commissions on
and materials plus 1919 of
the total for profit.
Because profits were so outrage
ous," Todd returned 100000 to the
navy yet still will have between $6,-
100000 and $S,OO0,OOO to pay taxes on.
Company business for the govern
ment this year, Barnes estimated, will
total $150,000,000 to $200,00O,000 on
which the company will clear s15,000,-
900 to $20,000,000. Even under re-
yised contracts, he said, the company
will make 5000 on it's invested capital

AGAINST ALIENS
IN HOPPER

NEW YORK.-Fearing that a new
and unjust attack ON the rights OF
the foreign-born worker were inner
ent in legislation now before congress
National Secretary Morris Milgram OF
the Workers Defense League has sent
letter of protest to Sen. Richard B.
Russell, chairman of the senate com.
mittee on immigration.
The legislation is H. r. $3.50. 1t
threatens naturalized Americans with
loss of citizenship for expressions of
opinion not denied other citizens.
H. r. $3.50 was passed by the house
of representatives ON January 10, and
is now being considered by the senate
committee on immigration.
In his letter to Senator Russell, Mil
gram expressed the Workers Defense
League opinion that this bill would
adversely affect the rights of foreign
born workers, by giving kind of
legal sanction to present tendencies
of citizens to take the law, as regards
aliens, into their own hands. They
ask for public hearings before the
committee. Text of the letter to
Senator Russell Is as follows:
My Dear Senator Russell:
We feel that the interests of work
ers In America would be seriously
jeopardized by the provisions of HR.
$3.50, passed by the house Of repre-
70 Tor
amendment to the Nationality Act of
1910. This legislation Is now before
your committee.
We ask that your committee hold
public hearings to determine if there
are not very real dangers to funda-
mental guarantees now protecting mil
lions of Americans in the draft of the
amendment already passed by the
house.
Section Of the amendment is typ
ical of the loose authority this bill
provides for officials to hound and
harrass naturalized citizens. 1t per-
mits cancellation of a mans citizen
ship where it is shown that his ut
terances, writings, actions or course
of conduct establishes that his polit-
ical allegiance is to foreign state or
sovereignty"
In that the blanket provisions of
this amendment permit ordinary citi-
zens to turn informer, permit officials
or employers to carry out private
grudges, this law is in sharp variance
with both traditional American con-
stitutional guarantees and with a
statement of policy at Attorney Cen

REFERENDUM
ON wheat
QUOTA FIXED

Montana wheat producers will have
an opportunity on May to vote iii a
referendum on Secretary of Agricul-
ture Wickard's proclamation of mar
keting quotas on the 1912 wheat crop,
Chairman R. J. McKenna of the Mon
tana Triple-A committee announces.
Last year marketing quotas on
wheat were in effect for the first time
after 81 percent of the nations farm
ers voting approved such action" Nc
Kenna explained. Under the quota
system Of allocating the available
market fairly among all producers,
farmers who have overseeded their
acreage allotments are asked to make
the same adjustment in their market
ings that TripleA co-operators make
when they seed within their wheat
allotments. This means that all farm
ers may market without penalty the
normal or actual production of their
acreage allotment and farmers whose
entire production is less than normal
for their allotment, may market with
out penalty an amount of wheat equal
to the normal production of the allot-
ment."
Marketing quotas have been pro-
claimed on the 1912 crop because Of
the tremendous wheat supply now
facing American farmers. There is
an indicated record supply of 1,314,-
100000 bushels of wheat for the mar
keting year beginning July L, 1912,
while the marketing quota level is set
at 99S million bushels. If between

Ell CENTRIC, Calf (FP) IT h e
Associated Farmers has lost its fight
to make the army cancel a contract
with union firm for construction Of
an air base here.
When the A. F. learned that the
successful bidder was under ALL con-
tract, it brazenly told the army that
union shop jobs in Imperial Valley
would not be tolerated. The protest
to Maj. Barker, army public relations
officer, and to the contractor was
made by a Mr.. Van Osborne, repre-
sentative of the A. F.
Barker replied that the contractors
labor policy was no business of the
army, so long as the firm fulfilled it's
contract. The A. F. then withdrew its
protest "in the interest of patriotism. :"
The TrfCounty Labor News of
Fresno commented: 1.-THE antics of
the A. F. have been responsible for
the deplorable conditions that now
prevail in Imperial Valley. This more
recent exhibition of their anti-Amer-
1canism reveals a dangerous tendency
that is completely out of step with the
requirements Of the government in its
most critical time
THE sooner this gentry of the dark
ages learn that organized labor is
