A procession Of cherry growers
and Gamers have apparently made
dent with the policy price-fixers
at the Office OF Price Administra-
ton. Their frantic pleas for a re-
vised upward rrice from the present
ceiling OF Sl0.25 a dozen for No.
10 cans OF Red Sour Pack canned
in August are getting action. Ex-
elusive cherry canning plants have
told oPA officials that the actual
cost Is an average of Sl1.50, higher
than last year due to increased
labor costs and ceilings set to the
growers.
Meanwhile, men in the Army and
Navy will not be enjoying cherry
pie while storehouses are crammed
with canned cherries. And those
warehouses provide only emergen-
cy shelter and it's below freezing
and a storm is brewing on the
Great Lakes, officials were warned
by the latest envoy from Cherry
land, former Mayor A. L. LeFrani-
er, just this week.
John Grismond, OPA official.
says the OPA recognizes that i'm
mediate action is imperative. Sew
eral conferences are scheduled to
review all figures and recommen-
dations and it's possible even
likely-that the price will be revis-
ed or a new method of calculating
approved.
The Florida Barge Canal issue,
becoming perennial" on the Con
gressional horizon, is receiving
now even greater opposition from
Congressman George .Dondero. The
Royal Oak Republican is indignant
that appropriations, totalling A
million dollars, for such venture
should come up again.
The War Department is side
stepping the decision Of the Rivers
and Harbors Committee, he fears.
In their appropriations for 1914,
the Chief OF Engineers of the Army
allocated s1.000,0O0 for the pur-
pose OF preparing plans to build
the Florida Barge Canal, for which
no money I'D yet been appropriate
ed by Congress for its construction.
Dondero says: Il hope the Com
mittee will not include this. or any
sum, In an appropriation bill for
the construction of the Florida
Barge Canal at this time. We do
not need It. II is not necessary for
the war effort"
But the eastern congressman are
becoming more receptive. Their
constituents want relief from
strict rationing OF gasoline
and in the barge canal is seen hope
of more petroleum supplies.
The bill was killed by only one
vote in the last Congress, so the
chances Of passage are frightened.
On Friday, Alabama's Senator
John Fl. Bankhead will open the
debate in the Senate to grant gov
eminent war advertising to news
papers.
Bankhead contemplates a fight
on the floor. II and when 1t
passes, Representative Clarence
Cannon will introduce a similar
bill in the House and urge that
the Ways and Means Committee
hold hearings.
The Senate Banking and Curren.
cy Committee reported the Bank
head bill out fayorably a short
while ago following hearings.
That the bill ever got out OF
committee. reported favorably, was
credited to the testimony of sew
eral publishers. BY authorities here.

Undset's Nobel prize winning novel
was reviewed expertly by Mrs. Leo
A. Magee Monday afternoon for
members of Chapter AV. P.E.O.,
who met for the business session
and program at the home of Mrs.
Henry L. Loud.
The novel is a splendid picture
of medieval Norway, the life and
customs of the times. and also, due
to the warmth and vigor with
which the author imbues her char
acters, is as real and alive as if ii
were about present-day people. The
book is a triology, composed OF
three separate novels, and Mrs. Mr.
gee gave mastery condensation
with splendid character analysis
prefacing her review with a biog-
raphical sketch of the author, and
brief account of the place the
novel occupies in literature.
Prior to the meeting the chap
ter met for luncheon at 752 Olive
