they live and thrive upon the
blood streams. hustle up circula-
ton by bathing the eyes first
with hot water. then with cold.
There's a nice byproduct OF
this treatment. which is sparkle

After the hot and cold treat

about this treatment hurting

lashes a light friction with the
finger tip.
You can use the oil at any
time; If any remains on your
eyelids il will make you even
more attractive because your
eyes will look dewy.
For goodness sake never trim
your lashes. Trimming does not
invigorate the growth. which
goes on at the roots. and the
results will be a horrid. stubby
fringe that will remain with you
until the shafts fall and new

So reads a discouraged note
from a girl who weighs only 80
pounds for her height OF 3 feet
2 inches and why she says she
is willing to do anything to put
on 20 pounds.
If you are as much under
weight. you no doubt have a
kindred eagerness TO put on

lowing the program which l

a program will take all the ex-

Town Meeting-An
American Custom

Men and women first came to
America so that they could be
free to assemble publicly for dis
cussion of their problems and to
hold their prayer meetings. Town
meetings early became the Amer
lean way Of planning community
programs of action action
against common enemies.
Community spirit may lie dor
mant in times of peace, during
periods of prosperity and good
community government, during
periods of apathy when the peo-
pie are satisfied or lazy, unin-
formed or misinformed. War,
however, provides violent stim-
ulus to action. And the town
meeting is the very foundation of
democracy in action.
In this government of the peo-
pie, by the people, for the peo-
pie, the town meeting is the
place of beginning, the hub from
which the peoples will radiates,
the instrument through which
peoples ideas are discovered, ex-
changed, consolidated, dissemin-
ated. The town meeting is the
Nations sounding board.
An awake and aware American
public is again seizing upon the
town meeting as it's device to
make it's voice heard. From
coast to coast local communities
are calling their people together.
A cooperative and cohesive pub
lie, angry and militant, has ask
ed again and again, What can
| do to help win the war;" The
question has been asked of gov
ernment. 1t has been answered,
within the limits of the Govern
ment's power and ability. The
complete answer must include the
voice Of the people, in concert
with that of it's Government.
This is everybody's war. The
Government can guide, suggest,
encourage. But, in order to
guide properly, to suggest wise
ly, to encourage with confidence
inspiring leadership-in order to
perform it's duties to the best ad-
vantage, government must have
the peoples help, their advice,
and wise counsel.

THE 4O-HOUR WEEK LAW

Though the big push against
the 40-hour week law has come to
a halt, foes of the law are still
trying to create the impression
that it prohibits a work week
longer than 40 hours. When one
of these gentry is encountered,
a plain statement of fact in re-
gard to the law will generally
take the wind out of his sails.
Such statement is put out by
the War Production Board in a
little leaflet, what Labor Is
Doing in the War" Says the leaf
let:
Question. Don't labor laws pro-
hibit a work week longer than
40 hours?
Answer: No. There is no law
that prohibits working more than
40 hours a week. The wage-hour
law simply provides that work
ers should be paid at the rate of
time and a half for hours over

SALES TAX FLAYED BY SENATOR LA TOILETTE

declares Senator Robert M. La
Toilette.
"No other major tax he adds,
"is more vicious in it's degrad-
ing effect on society. 1t has no
place, either in peacetime or in
war, in an equitable system OF
taxation based on ability to pay.
In effect, it is a monstrous abuse
of the governmental power OF
taxation"
Senator La Toilette shows that
on a percentage of-income basis,
the tax burden would be almost
four times as great on incomes
under $4,000, as compared with
incomes over $4,000. He calls
on us to remember also that this
same $4,000 income class, accord
ing to a finding Of the Temper
ary National Economic Commit
tee, already bears a 1876 per cent
share of all direct taxes (individ-
ual income, inheritance, estate,
gift, etc.. This makes it clear
how badly a sales tax soaks the
poor.

 MT. DeCicco is said to have col lected S22 from each of the tenants in June and July. After July. when a complaint has been lodged against him by one of the tenants, he is said to have refunded $5 to each of the tenants bringings down the rent for those two months to $l9. During August and September, he collected $l9, the information states. In Co., tober he began to charge $l6 and $l5 in accordance with the rent regulations, but took no step to re- fund the amount illegally collected in the two preceding months, it is alleged.

WAR POWERS BILL
 IS AGREED UPON
House Subcommittee Fa- vOrs Bill Giving Presi.
 dent Authority"

Washington, December i. = (UP) - A House Ways and Means Sub committee today voted in favor of a modified war powers bill, giving President Roosevelt discretionary authority" to suspend laws govern ing movement of property and in formation in and out of the United States during the war.
 Chairman Jere Cooper, D., Tenn, said the bill also would give the President authority to suspend reg ulations governing movements of persons out of the country.
 The subcommittee yesterday voted against considering that part of the Presidents original request which asked authority over movements of persons into the country. Members feared this might have led to a breakdown of immigration restric- tions.
 After an executive session of the subcommittee, Cooper issued the following statement:
 The subcommittee has continued the consideration of the subject in line with the action taken on yes- terday and has agreed unanimously to report a draft of bill to the full committee for consideration which confers discretionary author ity upon the President for the suspension of laws or regulations or parts thereof with respect to the movement of property or informa- tion in or out of the United States of its territories or possessions, and with respect to the movement of per sons from or out of the United States"
