However true the assertions are of in- competency in the former state Public Works Department as claimed yesterday by Republican House Leader E. Lea Marsh he certainly coined cute phrase when he said that tte department was "a comfortable roost for a group of be- fuddled birds of political paradise" All this was brought about as result oi claims of 35 landowners for damages against the state as result in breaks in the Bolton dam in 104l.

farmers who 1t is argued, are already producing near the sat- uration point.
 In contrast to this viewpoint, Davis first move was to bring back to Washington Jesse Tapp, former head of Surplus Com modities, who left to become vice. president of the Bank of Cali- fornla and who sides with the big citrus growers and the Associa- ated Farmers.
 Inside fact Is that Chester
 Davis was brought hack by ex.
 Justice Jimmy Byrnes. Byrnes,
 who understands people and poe
 litlcal trends better than almost
 anyone in Washington, believed
 Chester could heal the breach
 between Che farm bloc In Con-
 gross, the Administration, and
 the Farm Bureau. Chester has
 a lot on the ball, and maybe he
 can do it.

Looking Ahead

Louisiana provides an example Of the value of sound planning against the com ing of peace, This is in new housing project at Pineville, designed to accommo-. date non-commissioned army officers and their families during the war and to be converted into hospital afterward.

Lookl" SpuFgeon did look and his whole life was changed from that moment. He declared in later years that the clouds in that moment rolled away and that he under stood what John Bunyan meant when he declared that he wanted to tell all the crows on the plowed land about his conversion. .
 Here also is Q statement from one of Spurgeon's ser noils on the value of Q vital, religious experience: !: Precious Is that wine that Is press. cd in the wine-vat of conversion. Pure is that gold which is dug from the mines of repentance. Bright are those pearls which are found In the caverns of deep distress. He who has stood before God. convicted and condemned, with rope about hla neck. is the man to weep with Joy when he Is pardoned, and Co live to the honuor of the Reedemer by whose blood he is cleansed."

During the current week the tributes to Sergei Rachmanioff were numerous. Hardly ever has an artist received more general and sincere expressions. His passing was the cause for general sor- row and his contemporaries in music as well as the young group of musicians, the critics and the leading writers of the day paid him unprecedented tribute. Practically every important concert pro gram substituted his works for such others as were planned.

THE PROMISE (M. G. in the Christian Science Monitor) There is promise In the gray wing Of a pigeon Tn flight across fountains Tn the park Where the children swing. There is promise Tn the river That begging to swell And overflow Its banks Fed by water Prom the melting snow. There is promise Tn the valley Where the plowed field Will soon show The first shoots Of wheat and grain-- That almost over night Spring will surprise The world again.
