bill sponsored by Senator Wheeler

all right when the league season
starts. These games are exhibit
tions."
Not even in the statistical dope
did the Redskins have a chance,
with Sid Luckman outpassing
Baugh, and a gent named Harry
Clark from West Virginia, generally
a bother. Late in the game the
Redskins were able to gain first
down by rushing and where the
Bears gained II first downs via the
aerial route the Skins were able to
gain only S. The Bears gained 109
yards by rushing to 66 by the Skins,
The Bears pulled new one in the
penalty department in the course of
losing IA yards, They dropped Is
yards for receiving coaching from
the sidelines in the fourth quarter.
Passes Lead to Scores.
All touchdowns were direct results
of aerials. The Bears put over the
first score in 8l2 minutes of the sec
ond quarter after Redskin Coach
Dutch Bergman had yanked most of
his first team. Clark hauled down
a 45-yard heave from Luckman four
inches from goal Osmanski lost
two yards. but Clark got across and
Bob Snyder converted as he did
twice later
Luckman tossed another touch
down pass good for 25 yards in the
third quarter, to Hampton Poole,
who fell across the goal line
Two and half minutes after the
last quarter opened, Baugh tossed
an aerial to Moore on the Bear 80
picked up himself on a run after
being boxed in an attempted pass,
tossed another to Masterson on the
13, then laid one in Moore's arms
across goal. Masterson's kick was
good
This must have stirred the killer
instinct in the Bears, for they quick
" pushed across another score.
Luckman led the attack, tossing to
Mclean, then to Clark and then to
John Siegel, who was downed on
the /. Clark went over.
Redskins Score Again.
The Bears lost considerable yard
age by penalties in the final period,
and the Skins, scoring first down
on ground plays, worked the ball
to the Chicago 36. Andy Farkas
took it to the % and Baugh tossed
one to Joe Aguirre for a first down
on the "a.
With a minuate to play Baugh
found Moore unguarded across the
goal and fired for the final score
Only once did the spirit of other
Redskin- Bear games flare up. In
last period Ray Mclean took a
sock at Bob Masterson, after the
former had stolen the ball Bob
walked back to his post feeling his
eve. but the officials didn't notice
the exchange of fisticuffs.
Two weeks of steady drill face
the Redskins before their game with
the Chicago Cardinals.
They had day off today. but
Wednesday they'll scrimmage at
the Bainbridge Md Naval Train
ing Station. They probably will
meet the tough Bainbridge boys in
an exhibition at the naval base Oc-
tober 3. although this game isn't

Scarcity Boomeranss

THE summer Adjournment Of Congress is probably
l pleasing TO the administration.
The administration very enthusiastic about
having Congress in session after it has voted the
appropriations and authorizations desired
Money 10 spend and the power to spend il are the
two things this prodga administration wants from
Congress and after they available it always peascs
the administration to have Congress 20 home.
However there Is more be considered All times
the desires and the practices Of the administration
and there especially at this critical time OF food
shortages
THE only constructive thing the Congress has
tried to do about the food problem so far to
outlaw the New Deals socalistic PLUMBER PETER
AND NOT PAY PAUL subsidy program but the boys
IN Congress lost their when the President spoke
sharply about the and waved the disciplinary rod
As matter of fact, the American people beng
deprived Of adequate food because of the price of it.
but because there is not ENOUGH Of it.
The present problem arises from the fact that for
many Years the-Ncw- Deal administration practced
economy Of scarcity with respect to the production Of
food
compelled Che retirement from production OF some
fifty million Of farmland, and paid farmers to
maintain idle crcs-and even to this day it has not
restored all the rich land thus abandoned TO active pro-
ducton.
IN ADDITION the New Deal administration has per
| mitted thousands of the young and very best farmers
to be indicted into the armed forces entced into
production ndustrieswithout consideration Of the
capable work they previously doing the farms
the vital nature of that work.
Consequently, while there is not much farm land
in production the nation needs for adequate food
supply, there is not enough competent agricultural
manpower left the farms TO operate the farming
enterprises that remain.
In further consequence, crops have either rotted in
the fields have been planted herds and focks
have been depleted and of general diminish
ment Of the nations food supply has resulted.
THIS is not situation that the New Deal admins
tration remedy with subsidies Subsidies will
only increase the administrations prodga spending and
hasten the day of evil initiation
The situation is simple to be remeded only by
maximum production in all agricultural enterprises
remedy impossible Of attainment without sufficient
power machinery and distribution
It is also dire situation and failure to remedy it
has already confronted the American people with food
shortages and eventually will confront them with
ACTUAL HUNGER.
The Congress under many inducements and per-
SuasOns TO adjourn
The New Deal administration wants a free hand 10
waste more money in political manipulation.
II IS very hot in Washington.
But going home without doing It's duty to the
people in the vital matter Of adequate food supply,
Congress learn that the wrath of the people be
hotter than either politics the weather.
