The problem placed upon his desk by war advisers, including Leo Crowley of the new Office of Economic Warfare. They point to the tremendous drain on our own food resources and the fact that we are soon going to face the job of feeding the world. Only solution for this, they say, is to call upon our Good Neighbors to increase their own production of farm products.
 This is bound to raise a tre-
 mend0uS storm on Capitol Hill.
 Farm bloc leaders are certain to point out that only a few years ago huge wheat surpluses in Ar- gentina, the United States and Canada, caused a series of wheat conferences to try to curtail the crops. Following this, the United States did curtail, but Argentina did not.
 Farmers also remember the long, bitter dispute over the im- portation of Argentine food prod ucts. During the Hoover admin is tration, Argentina exported to us a mere handful of about one million bushels of corn along the Atlantic coast, where it was used chiefly as chicken and pigeon feed. The ensuing howl from American farmers brought an in- crease in the U. s. tariff on corn.
 During the Coolidge administra- tion, Argentina exported to us large quantities of alfalfa seed, In order to check it, Coolidge'S Secretary of Agriculture, William Jardine, ruled that Argentine al- falfa seed must be colored orange red an indication to farmers that 1t winterkills.
 ARGENTINE COW KICKED FDR
 Again there was FDR's own famous crack about the Argen- tine COW being better than the American COW, remark which was seriously resented in many quarters and which hurt him among farmers.
 Despite this certain political backfire, however, it looks as if military necessity would send the President squarely into the teeth Of politics with a food cultiva-

Canning powders" may shorten or help along the canning process, but they are described by health authorities as detriment to health Home canning may be more or less tedious process but if proper at- tention is given it, instructions followed, good ingredients used, the results should be satisfying without the aid of artificial assistance in the form of canning powders, so-called.

 Boston will remember Lieutenant John Kennedy, son of former Am- bassador Joseph P.

He was still a college junior when he wrote a best seller book, While England Sleeps"

WHAT'S A LITTLE WATER

 "our authority for the teaching of the prone pressure method of ar- tificial respiration is Dr. Yandel: Henderson and Dr. Drinker" (writes little big shot oA American Red Gross stationery-not to me. dear me, no, but to 6 layman who evi- dently had the temerity to subnait query to the little big shot).
 Various tests have been made at our request by pr. Henderson and pr. Drinker regarding the claims Of this columnist" Chats as near as the little big shots dare come to a debate of the point with mel. ".. regarding the claims of this columnist and we have been advised that there is no reason to change our teachings from what we have been teaching these many years." p1s M {. So that's that. Well, now, letAs see what Prof. Yandel Henderson thought of the teachings of "this columnist" when I discussed the technique of manual prone pres. sure with him some time ago.
 New Haven, Conn.,, Oct. 8, '3O. Dear Doctor Brady:
 ...I am particularly pleased to notice that you show the vic- tm'S arms drawn forward, as this Is my own particular con- tribution to the technique of the Schafer prone pressure method. In my opinion by having the arms drawn forward beyond the head the thoracic cage is pulled into the position of maximum in. spiration and tends to return to this position each time the expir- atory pressure of the operator is released" E So my one-man campaign to get the arm out from under the head seemed to be going well at that moment. But 1t only seemed so, for in the same letter Prof. Henderson, believe 1t or not, said:
 T really do not think that the question of putting the subjects head upon his arm and the fac- tor of gravity are of very great importance. It has been shown in the laboratory that when wa- ter or physiological saline is in. troduced into a lung 1t is quite rapidly absorbed 2. ordinarily the amount that enters the lungs, at least in cases which are resus- citable, is probably not large"
 It is only fair to remind the reader that I quote from a com- munication received from pr. Hen. derson in 1880. He may have changed his mind in thirteen years flor that matter 1t seemed to me he changed his mind in thirteen seconds concerning the correct po- sition of the subjects arms.
 If came upon any one applying manual prone-pressure artificial res- piration to a victim of submersion, with one of the victims arms under the chin or head, the operator would correct the error instantly or else.
 A little water in the lung may be quickly absorbed, as Prof, Hender- son claims. but if 1t were my lung I'd want the help of gravity in draining the fluid from the breath tions of seconds, may make the dif- ference between success or failure ing passages. Seconds, even frac- of resuscitation.

 Canadians are getting more gasoline than we are," com plained Bridges. ".And they are getting it in tankers, despite the fact that we are told tankers cannot be used to carry oil and gas to New England"
 Senator Bridges, however, has run into a stone wall of silence. OPA and Petroleum Administra- tion spokesmen reply that the amount of oil Canada gets is es- tablished by higher officials than themselves presumably the White House.

Just two years ago tonight, on the
stroke of midnight, Washingtonl
$4,000, 900 airport opened for busi-
ness at Gravelly Point but today air
port workers were too busy to cele-
brate the anniversary.
About $500 workers were on the
airport reservation on the first day
OF business. Now, including the Army
Air Forces annex on the reservation,
there are $4,000 workers, according
to Airport Manager John Groves.
Men ran the airport. Today,
women are working at every type of
job. There are women in the
Weather Bureau, women in airway
trafic control, women spotting
planes on the runways, women
handling cargo, women welding and
doing the other maintenance jobs.
Commercial traffic has decreased,
its place taken by heavy military
operations" Two years ago there
was one hangar, now there are six.
The anniversary sees two more air
lines coming into Washington.
Routing through Washington has
been approved and the two lines
are now making preparations to
dispatch planes to and through the
Capital next month.

Trucking Firms Sue
To Void Pay Raise
New England Group Asks
Injunction Against WLB

In what said to be the first suit
Of its kind against the National
War Labor Board, the employers
group OF Motor Freight Carriers,
Boston, Mass. and others repre-
senting some 300 Boston and New
England employers engaged in gen.
eral truck freight transportation is
seeking an injunction against the
WLB to compel it to set aside an
order granting wage increases. The
suit was filed in District Court.
The suit claims the order granting
wage increases to some 5000 en-
ployes Is contrary to an executive
order which permits minor wage ad-
justment on bases not material
where "such adjustments do not in
crease the level OF production cost
appreciably or furnish the basis to
increase prices"
1t Is further contended in the suit
filed through Attorney J. Ninian
Beall, that the executive order di-
'rected no further wage increases
be allowed except when necessary
to correct substandards of living in
line with the Little Steel formula.
The suit claims the basis of in
equality regarding the trucking
firms employees was non-existent.
1t further maintains that an increase
in transportation rates must follow
any wage increase. 1t also claims
that WLB and other defendants
named in the suit, including the
Trucking Commission of the WLB
and William H. Davis, chairman of
WLB, exceeded their authority.
