People Need More
Whole Cereals

Surveys made in Benton County
show that the average person does
not have an adequate supply OF
whole cereals. Whole cereals should
not be confused with coarse cereals.
Whole cereals may be ground as fine
as white flour, but they still should
contain all of the parts of whole
grain
Cracked wheat and oatmeal are
about the only whole grains that we
can obtain in the stores at present.
In order that cereals keep well, the
bran and germ are usually removed.
This is the most nourishing part and
the part which insects instinctively
search for. Humans, too, need to
learn to search for these.
The diet should contain at least
one ounce of whole cereal day, and
this does not need to be served as
sticky much" Breads, either yeast
breads or fuffins or biscuits may
well be used. Meat for meat loaf
may be mixed with oatmeal for a
binder. Soups and casserole dishes
can contain whole cereals used i'm a
variety of ways.
The fractions of Vitamin B found
in whole cereals are those which
stimulate appetites and help prevent
nervous disorders.

of Cereals" at the Extension Office.

Lions at Top of
Valley League

The KenneWick Lions found the
highly touted Zillah basketball team
somewhat easier than they had ex-
pected last Saturday night and they
came home with the long end of a
1923 score.
The tall zillah quintet couldn't
seem to hit the basket as well as
they have in previous games and the
upper valley team never came close
to the Lions after the first two or
three minutes. Half time score was
24-15.
The Lions B team also won an
easy. contest, 33-11 with all the boys
scoring. However, Better, the
player-manager and Preston, guard,
led the scoring.
This Friday night the Lions open
their league schedule again versus
Sunnyside. The latter have another
good team and If the Lions desire
to remain in the Yakima Valley A
League they will have to have their
shooting eyes set for this one. The
Lions have won three games and
>, lost none; while Sunnyside has lost
two and won one.

BUFFALO-(FP)-A Buffalo work

anxious to do his bit on the produc

CABINET OFFICER
RECEIVES The
PRESS
By VIRGINIA GARDNER

WASHINGTON OPP - A rather
shy man sat behind a massive desk
in big sunny room facing a gruop
of labor editors.
AS he talked about the war, how
ever, he lost his shyness.
II have always understood that la
Dor knew what the war was all
about" he said.
Again, he said, 81 have always de-
pended greatly on labor for support
for any proposal from this depart
ment."
He even said, smiling ruefully, II
have often thought, If | have any fol-
lowing anywhere - mind you, | said
"if'-it is with organized labor"
These words came from the man
whose job it is to finance the war,
Sec. of the Treasury Henry Morgen-
thau
He made them during the course of
the first press conference held ex-
clusively for the labor press by a cabi-
net officer.
ference was just for background, and
that he did not want to be quoted.
He would be glad to answer questions,
he said later. Rubin Levin, of Labor,
organ of the railway brotherhood then
said:
"Mr. Secretary, you made some very
good remarks about labor. Can't we
quote any of them?"

MONOPOLY
CONSPIRACY
CHARGED

NEWARK, N J-(FP)- Participa
ton in a worldwide monopoly of vita
aircraft parts was charged to the
Bendix Aviation Corp. in a fedora
antitrust suit filed here November
l19. Named in the suit are former
Pres. Vincent Bendix, former Vice
Pres. Charles Marcus and Patent Atty
Francis A. Stanton.
The suit was one of the first anti
trust actions not halted by the army
or navy under their wartime powers
to do so.
Since 1886 Bendix, in agreement
with German Japanese, Italian,
French and English firms, divided up
world market and fixed prices, the
suit charged While all the foreign
companies did not enter into all the
pacts, they were all parties to one or
more.
Although many of the agreements
are not in effect today, the company
still considers them potentially opera
tive after the war, and has made no
move to break them, the suit said.
Even after Canada went to war,
Bendix refused to sell them certain
accessories because of it's agreement
with Siemans A. M. of Berlin, divid-
ing up world territory. The last pay
ment on the Bendix-Siemans pact was
made as recently as 1941.

represented under a voluntary man
power plan supported by labor and
fought by the Buffalo Chamber of
Commerce.
Other examples cited by Peterson
to show that it is employers and not
workers who are slowing down pro-
duction:
"A polisher at a plant where gun
barrels are made wants to leave be-
cause he says that although he could
easily polish 275 barrels a day, the
established days work is 100 and il
he does more than that he is repri-
manded.
Here is young lady in large
plant. There are SIS girls in her de-
partment, and she asserts that three
could do all the work. She wants a
job elsewhere somewhere where
there will be enough for her to do"
Union spokesman greeted this in
formation as proof of their previous
charges that employers are boarding
manpower and that compulsory man
power freezing would only encourage
boarding and not increase production.

>to the difficulties in Butte, and
it is safe to say that this is not
the first time they have sup
pressed important news.
The Associated Press is being sued
by the government trust busters as
monopoly, but in its defense this cor
poration has the effrontery to say
that freedom of the press is attacked
when the Associated Press is at
tackled. Citizens of Montana can well
wonder why they are so quick to
worry about freedom of the press
when they fail to print all the news.
The situation in Butte demonstrates
the mistakes which have been made
by the national administration regard
ing the manpower program. Months
ago attempts were made to have the
Selective Service boards of Montana
and in Butte particularly defer miners
who were needed in the production of
copper. The draft boards were too
tough and hundreds of miners were
sent from productive channels of a
vital war metal to the army where
their talents were not put to imme-
date use. The result of this unintel-
ligent move was an immediate decline
in the production of copper. After
months of delay, the war manpower
commission, realizing the shortage of
copper was impeding the war effort
to great degree, permitted the dis
charge of miners to work In the cop
per mines. Several thousand were re-
turned to Butte, and there the trouble
started.
Instead of discharging men who had
worked in the mines in Butte, the
army discharged miners from all over
the country, including many a south
ern negro. 1t was only natural then
that the people of Butte were dis
turbed when they found returning to
Butte not their sons and brothers and
sweethearts who were drafted from
the mines, but other men, including
negroes, not accustomed to copper
mining. The fact that disorders have
occurred, and the miners have some
times refused to work does not in
dictate that they have racial prejudices
Or that they are anti-negro. On the
contrary, it merely reflects the atti-
Lude that Butte miners should have
been returned The army has an
swered these protests by saying that

Biggest Magazine
Accused Anti-Labor
Pro-Fascist Bias

PLEASANTVILLE, N. Y OPP -
Readers Digest, the magazine with the
biggest circulation in the world, is ac
cused by the November 16 In Fact
Of having a publisher who does moi
want Hitler defeated; of hiring a new
editor who printed fascist propaganda
in the American Mercury; and of hay
ing consistently printed antilabor
propaganda.
Published in this small town by De.
Witt Wallace, who started 81 years
ago with pair of scissors, Readers
Digest has a circulation of seven mil
lion and claims 40 million readers.
In Fact charges that there was a
revolt by minor editors against Wal
lace's reactionary policies. Wallace,
according to In Fact, called the staff
together and made the following state
ment:
1--WE do not want Germany COM
pletely defeated. | think Germany
should be beaten up bit, and I pre-
fer that the American army does it,
so that Hitler will learn who is boss
in this world.
But I do not want Germany
smashed. What will become of the
continent of Europe if Hitler is killed
and fascism completely eradicated?
The Russians will conquer all of Eur
ope. Therefore our policy should be
to whip Hitler to the point where he
recognizes we are the biggest power
in the world and then keep Hitler in
Europe to police the continent and
maintain order
1--WE also need little fascism in
the U. S. to keep this country in or
der. We need a certain type of fas-
cism here to keep radicals out and
radical systems and philosophers from
making any Roadway, and even at
to take over the govern
ment"
Wallace, In Fact charges, repeated
this statement in different wording
when the staff protested the appoint
ment of Paul Palmer, former editor
Of the American Mercury, as editor of
Readers Digest In Fact recalls that
when Palmer became editor of the
Mercury, one of his first acts was to
publish an article by Lawrence Den
lis, self-proclaimed spokesman for

to low levels.
The full text of his statement fol
lows:
THEY WORK FOR HITLER
From Wall Street to Capitol Hill
the hue and cry has been raised
against the Wage and Hour law. AL
the ancient lies about this legislation
are being trotted out once more by
the lords of the press and their lackey
columnists.
Originally, the dime-an-hour boys
tried everything in their power to OBJ
struct passage of the law, which pro-
vides for overtime compensation for
all hours worked in excess of 40 in
any one week.
Having failed in this rear-guard &C
ton, the wrecking crew next spread
malicious propaganda to the effect
that the law limits the workweek to
40 hours. President Roosevelt effec-
lively spiked that falsehood.
Now the labor-baiters demagogical-
ly charge that the law is depriving
our nation of necessary manpower.
What are the facts?
The length of the work-week is not
an issue here, for the Wage and Hour
Law does not limit the number of
hours that may be worked in any one
week. Indeed, the average work-week
in all industry today is in excess OF
AZ hours, and in war factories between
46 and AZ hours. 1t must be empha-
for the payment of time and one-half
for overtime, that is, for hours worked
in excess of 40 in any one week, or
more than eight in any one day.
At a recent press conference our
commander-in-chief told newspaper
hours are not interested in increasing
production, but are fighting for larger
profits for employers-no nothing less.
There could be no more diabolical
plot against the war effort than this
one. To repeal the Wage and Hour
at the expense of labor-at time
when the cost of living has skyrock-
eted-is to undermine the morale of
American workers and cause produc-
ton to sink to low levels.
That is exactly what Hitler wants,
and if that is what certain senators
and congressman and newspaper pub
fishers are aiming for, then it is high
time that they be called to account
for their reasonable conduct.

U. S. LUMBER
REQUIREMENTS
INCREASING

| WASHINGTON-Th United States
Army will use more lumber than steel
in the coming year, Undersecretary
of War, Robert P. Patterson, said
today in statement which told the
men in Americas logging camps and
sawmills that they "can render no
greater service to the cause of victory
than to give us the wood we must
have-and give it to us quickly"
Lumber is seeing action with
Americas army of four and a half
million at every corner of the globe, "
Mr.. Patterson said.
Lumber comes close to the heart
of our whole war program. There are
1,200 different items of military and
naval equipment that can use lumber.
Every one of these items has it's part
in fighting and winning this war.
Each day we find new and important
ways to use wood in our weapons"
One hundred and twenty-five mil
lion tons of wood will be used by the
war program in the next II months
MI. dtlei SUI Sdlu. L HIS is 20 per
cent greater than the tonnage of steel
to be used.
He said the Army regards the men
in the woods and mills as front line
fighters in this war"
How much they produce will have
a great deal to do with determining
how quickly we will win or whether
we will win at ALL" he added.
1--WE are not getting enough lumber
to fill all the needs of the armed
forces" he said
Our requirements are going up;
our production is going down"
