are far below that average period.
Overlooked by PAW was Producers
Refining Co. Of Shelby which furnishes
crude for Socony- Vacuum requirements,
processed in Glacier Production plant,
in excess of the runs of either Big West
or Home Oil Co.
1t is on this oversight that revision
Of the schedule is expected.
No explanation for the additional runs
to Inland Empire was made in the tele-
graphic order. Inland is supplied by Ola
eier Production Co., excepting about
800 barrels per day from TrigoOd Oil
Co.
Inland Empire has been receiving
about $4,000 barrels per month which
with shipments of $4,000 barrels per
month to the PocateIlo refinery gives
the Moyle group about % percent of the
total production of Cut Bank field.
Shipments to Canada have been de-
clining: $4,000 barrels in November;
10000 barrels in December; and $4,000
barrels in January. February runs to
Canada, figures on which are incom-
plete, probably totaled around $4,000
barrels.

ordination of marketing and farming in many so-called non-commercial market areas, farmers have come to look upon lack of a market as hazard of the business, like poor weather. In war, when every item of food counts, this waste threatened to assume the pro- portions of a national tragedy.
 A typical example of the way the new program works is provided in the state of Indiana. Purdue University, the land grant college for Indiana, supplied each county agent in the state with Spe- cial assistant, whose job 1t was to ob- tain detailed data on every farmer and small truck gardener in his county, and send it to central state committee. The committee maintains contact with the marketing groups, who are advised in advance of the specific number of car loads of various kinds of produce that will be available in each county. Marketers then arrange its purchase.
 Once again the distribution industry has scored a victory for producer and consumer. Such efforts on the part of private industry carry the country stead- lily toward higher living standards and a higher level of general wellbeing.

Business Blackmail

Small manufacturers are being forced to absorb the 20 per cent withholding tax in order to retain their workmen. This, of course, constitutes wage increase of equivalent amount, which itself is legally subject to further withholding tax, of which the government is being de- frauded.
 The practice is undoubtedly illegal. It is economically unsound because most small firms cannot stand such drain It is fiscally unsound because it con- tributes to imitation, defeating the very purpose of the taxing method. It is, as the American Business Congress says, business blackmail.

Dor man, but the party was never considered 6 political thSeat in east ern Canada until this years Ontar- 10 elections.
 Head of the CCF in Canada today Is M. J. Caldwell, Q British school teacher who migrated from England some IS years ago, settling in Sas- katchewan. He brought with him the ideas of British Fabian social- ism, and in Regina, Sask., where he was a school principal, he began diss cussion of his ideas of public owner- ship of public utilities.
 The movement spread through western Canada, gaining Q strong following in British Columbia. Prot estant ministers and other respect able clements formed study clubs to spread its doctrines. The Caldwell movement was never radical in the sense of being Red, nor did 1t have anything to do with the social credit, funny money party founded by the late William Aberhart in Alberta in 1885, and 6 power in the province ever since. CCF has always been more of a parlor pink organization without the communist or fellow traveller connections.
 CCF leadership today is playing It's cards carefully. Most of Its candi- dates recently elected to offlce are right of the farms or right out of the ranks of labor, and totally with out political experience. Their game now is to take 1t easy, gain political wisdom as Q minority party holding @ balance of power, then at the right moment step in the knock hell out of the Conservatives Liberal coalition and take over.
 HOW TO STOP THE CCF
 Mackenzie Kings immediate prob- lem therefore becomes one of stop- ping the CCF. The question is, how? President Roosevelt's visit to Ottawa may be one effort to head of the CCF movement.
 Greatest strength in opposition to CCF growth is in the Catholic prov ince of Quebec which, like old France itself, is an intricate wheels within-wheels mixture of 6 dozen political parties. All affairs of the province are supposedly dominated by Q medieval theocracy centered in the palace of Cardinal Villaneuve in Quebec thought 1t takes no open part in politics.
 Oddly enough, one of Mackenzie Kings great sources of Liberal party strength in Canada has always been centered in the province of Quebec His government has not enforced conscription here, and he has al- lowed the French Canadians to go pretty much their own way.
 Today there Is actually a political alliance in Quebec which Is In open opposition to the Liberal partys conduct of the war. It goes under the name of the Bloc Populaire and 1t is, in fact, an anti-war party, a nationalist, isolationist group want- ing autonomy for Quebec. ELECTIONS DELAYED

Parley.Voo?

By wireless from Algiers, Milton Bracker of the New York Times staff, views with alarm the mayhem that American soldiers are committing against the French language. It seems that our boys do not appreciate the importance of gender in French nouns. They fail to understand, apparently, the logic by which 0clle weather is masculine while a mighty artillery piece is feminine-why c flame is feminine, but the fire itself is masculine. Nor do our expeditionaries comprehend the future, the conditional, the subjunctive and the historical present lenses and moods of Gallic verbs. And the worst thing about the situation, reports MT. Bracker, is that the fellows don't seem to give tinker's damn about their ignorance. The Army provides op- portunity for them to acquire linguistic aptitude, but they spend their time other wise. MT. Cracker does not say how. If autumn were closer to the corner it will turn soon, we could whip up more sincere indignation at "the boys from Boston, Chicago and Hickory Center" AS it is, we find ourselves thinking back quarter of a century to another World War, fought on French territory by - among others-a couple of million Americans W4NO A11OW 1Il0S11 T ACA4(A4 eAAAS NAAAAA care much.
 If memory and repute serve us right, they were even more linguistically inept than the current generation. MT. Bracker complains that World War II doughboyS combine the infinitive Cor sometimes the past perfect) with the verb avoir (to have) for every purpose. In World War the infinitive got by without any aux Hilary most of the time. Or maybe 1t wasn't the infinitive. Anyway, it worked.
 "Promener?" invited the Yank, and that was enough. Manager" he ordered
 = "Biftek". One could do marvels with q simple "Ooooo-la la." By infection, this French word tor is it one?) was made to serve multiple purposes. It is not for us, living amidst most of the comforts of home, to remind Mir. Bracker, in North Africa, that the surroundings of an army in the field are not conducive to the more scholarly pursuits. By the time soldier has polished off his two or three Axis op- p0nents for the day, or bombed Rome, 0r knocked off tank and couple of field rieces - or dug latrine, peeled bushels ok potatoes, scrubbed pots and pans or MnIaaded a ship-he is inclined to think he has earned his $l.07 for the day.

Press Comment
BUY NOW FOR CHRISTMAS!
 IHartford Couraa O

With Labor Day still in the ofting. 1t is none the less not too soon to urge people to DO your ChristmaS shopping earlyl" and to do 1t now Postmaster General Walker points out that within the next few weeks millions of people will be purchasing Christmas gifts for friends and Eel- atives in the armed forces all over the globe in order to conform to necessary time limitations set by the Military and Naval authorities. He therefore suggests that all those buying now for that purpose should at the same time remember their civilian hnsfolk and friends and get as many presents as possible before the Christmas rush sets in. There is at present far better selection of article in the stores than there will be later and, going by last years experience, late buyers will not only find many stocks already exhausted. but the shortage of clerks will make shopping more than ever an ordeal for all concerned.
 The Postmaster General wants his Department to do an efficent job of delivering Christmas and New Years packages on time. Anybody who has lately had the temerity to travel by trains or planes knows how overburdened are present transpor- tation facilities, and 1t does not take much imagination to realize what the situation will be three or four months hence. Furthermore, tke Department win this year be unable to enlist the services of those eight. een-and nineteen-year-oids Whs during their lol2 Christmas vaca. tons sped many Q cheery present across the Continent and overseaa Those lads are now learning how h speed bullets, bombs and shells to ward our common enemies.
 Though Mir. Walker and his sub. chiefs will doubtless enlist the aid of numbers of part-time feminine personnel. that will not altogether solve the problem. Therefore, if we wish our Christmas gifts to arrive beforehand CT at least on time. eaT- ly buying and mailing gre absolute ly essential.

Henceforth the slave was the prop erty of the god, but with reference to all the rest of the world, he was a free man.
 The New Testament constantly employs the same figure in describ- ing our relationships to God and Christ. It declares that we are the bond servants of God. We have been sold to God, as 1t were, by our de- votion to Jesus Christ. But while we are Gods servants. we are. as against all the world, free men. Our complete submission to God makes US free of the servitude of sin. The law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus makes us free from the law of sin and Of death.
 Tn ancient times the master sold the slave to the god, SO that after that he vas the servant Of the god but free as regards ell men. So has our Lord Jesus made us bond servants of the Most High but free of all those calamitous weaknesses which afFlict the soul.

. Thought for Today
End of the Ban and the Summer

At 12:01 midnight this morning the Irving ban in effect since last May was ufted. The summer penance is over, but artverS are to be on their honor, and only sssential driving advised. 'The summer no Sweeter was ever, the SunShiny woods Ll athrill, the grayling aleap in the meadow, the big-horn asleep on the hill" :" ... All this being true many were not able to take full enjoyment of summer khiS year since they could not have the accustomed excursions to the country. The "honor" system in this respect was pretty well observed; but there were many who used their cars more or less ndiscriminately, and as they said or someone else said for them - they got away with it.
 Today driving is permitted, but again the person using his car is asked to use what gas he has Sparingly; that is to cay for essential driving. With the hol- iday weekend ahead 1t is likely that many will do their necessary travelling by car instead of using the railroad, and thereby may somewhat relieve the heavy train travel.
 During the summer people trained themselves to do without their cars It was, perhaps, one of the hardest things that has been asked of the home-fror .- CTS. Giving up the privilege of using what gas one had when and as one likes did not set too well. But by and large citiEens tried to cooperate and do what was asked and expected of them. Those who denied themselves summer vaca- tions because of the ban may feel bit let-down that the ban is lifted at sum- ner'S end, but on the other hand they are reminded that this is just one sum- mer out of many, and to count their blessings which are many, even though "the summer no Sweeter was ever."

Raid Insurance

The War Damage Corporation, which insures our home against Axis bombs for $1O thousand (and other properties at other rates) has made almost 100 per cent profit out of more than $100 millions it has taken in on 5,000,000 policies covering some $122 billions of property.
 The danger of significant Axis bomb ing damage has possed, if it ever existed Yet the rate stays right where it was, and the profits roll into MT. Morgen- thous cash register. Is this little mat ter for Congress attention on some otherwise idle day?
