MAJOR BAFFLED


People who picnic still BATTLE
Major Harry B. Brown, post
adjutant.
One Sunday afternoon a party
of civilians stopped outside his
home at Fort Custer, unloaded
their car Of baskets, thermos
jugs and children and proceed
cd to set up a picnic lunch on
the majors front lawn.
Approaching them warily,
Major Brown suggested that per-
haps they were encroaching on
his privacy, that somewhere on
Fort Clusters 10000 acres they
might find another shade tree
without disturbing the view
from his patio.
Say, this is a free country,
amt it?" came the reply. This
is an army post, amt it? We're
paying for it and it's just as
much ours as it is yours, amt
it,"
The major beat a hasty re-
treat contemplating a counter
offensive. but the invaders fold
ed their tents and silently stole
away.

SEE RED GLOW
They say you can still see the
red glow on the face of this
buck private.
For some time it has been a
custom for men at the reception
center to cook , } a hard-luck
story, approach the chaplain,
and play on his sympathetic
understanding for permission to
leave the military area.
So successful is the system
that soldiers are making more
and more use Of the chaplain
and more and more visits TO the
chapel.
Late one day Major Eldon M.
Stcnjem, commanding officer of
the reception center, visited the
chapel to discuss new dccOra-
tons with the chaplain and
was caught i'm a veritable Jam

the front door.
Bumped aside by a rushing

ALLOW SALE

ALLOW SALE
The Senate Appropriations
Committee then voted to allow
below parity sale of l25, 100000
bushels of wheat and unlimited
amounts Of corn, barley and 9TH
er grains for feeding purposes
under an agreement with agri-
culture department officials
that these sa.es would not be
used to force corn prices below
85 per cent of parity, the level
Of past government corn loans.
The farm groups were said to
be opposing this action.
The Agriculture Department
has warned that grain produc-
ton must be curtailed because
of crowded storage facilities, a
limited foreign market, and lack
of shipping space. 1t seeks to
turn some grain acreage to meat
production because meat re-
quires less shipping space for
the food value involved and be-
cause it is the prime food need
of Americas Allies.
Senator McNary (R-Ore),
minority leader and an import
ant member Of the Bipartisan
Farm Bloc as wheat area SEN
ator, quietly got the Senate to
delay any action on the surplus
grain provision until Monday
after debate on the Farm Bill
opened yesterday.
Senators Russell (D-Ga) and
Bankhead DALAI, cotton and
tobacco area spokesman, were
expected to join with Senators
McNary and Gillette (D-Iowa),
from the important corn-hog
area, in the Saturday attempt
TO please all conflicting groups.
Meanwhile numerous other
controversial items await d
Senate decision, including sub
stantial increases made by the
Senate appropriations commit
tee in funds for the various aid
programs for low income farm

There is in that the whole Bible of

All divisions, political and social, must
cease if we are to prevent invasion and to

No more blocs, no more strikes, no
more political divisions until we have fin

THERE is piece of unfinished business
in the docket of Congress that is long
overdue for settlement, the grant of
temporary pay increase to the 277 900 post
office employees.
Considering the Importance of their
work, the diligence and loyalty required to
perform it, postmen have never been ade-
quately paid.
Considering the rise of prices and the
upward swing of wages throughout all
industry postmen are finding it hard
matter to feed and clothe their families on
7O-cent 1925 dollars, and realizing that
they are the forgotten men of the New
Deals labor policy.
n URING the last war, a great many
l. postmen were forced by high prices
to take other jobs in industries that paid
better.
The result was deplorable.
Letters sometimes tookNthree days to
60 across town; they were mislaid, mis-
directed and lost.
In the present war, the post office
employees are struggling in the same
economic wise.
They cannot lobby, they cannot strike,
they have no union through which to
apply pressure.
Instead they must petition Congress
