to open the way for Increased
production on farms by letting
prices rise.
Food will hold down prices

Goss, countering- administration
arguments for the $500, 1000, 000-a-
year subsidy program. commended
that the way to take off initiation
pressure is to let farm prices keep
pace with demand and siphon off
excess cash through taxes.
O'Neal, whose prepared state
ment was filed by w. r. Ogg,
legislative representative of the
Farm Bureau Federation, also de-
nounced the claims of subsidy ad-
vocates that repeal OF the subsl-
dies might break the chief dam
against initiation.
He asserted that bureau OF agrl-
cultural economics figures show
consumer food prices would have
to rise only $1,000, 000,O 600 to
achieve fair return to far
mers. That, he said would be only
about l per cert of the total con-
sunner bill for goods and services.
"These relatively small increas-
es in consumer cost can be alb
sorbed by consumers out of their
present high incomes without JUS
tifving any general wage increas-
es,'' he declared.
The subsidy scheme was
launched to appease the unjusti-
fable demands of labor leaders
for price follbacks and to cover
up the failure to control an I'M

CANDELILLA

1Euphorbia antisyphilitica)
Candelillas are easily recognized
by their slender, erect, rodlike
branches, which grow to a height Of
3 feet. They are leafiess and show
their resemblance to the cacti.
Economically, the family in which
we find the candelilla is important
In it, there will be found the para
rubber tree, castor oil plant, the
tapioca and ornamental poinsettia
Euphorbia is a classical name, and
it is claimed that Pliny bestowed ii
in honor of King JUDAS physician
Most likely, it is from the Greek
word meaning fat, because of the
succulent leaves.
The plants are native to arid hab-
itat's in Africa. The candelilla is
very common in Mexico. The Mex
leans obtain from it a wax which
has been in constant demand as the
foundation for polishing wakes. Re
Gently 1t has been discovered that
an excellent wax made from a palm
found by the millions in Brazil is so
abundant and superior that the can
delilla will have to take second place
However, there are many other uses
the Mexicans have found for this
native material.
The flowers are small and incon-
spicuous. They appear along the
spiny ridges Of the fleshy stems
They are slightly fragrant. The
pistillate, or female, blossoms do not
possess floral envelopes. They are
surrounded by many staminate-

was made by the Norsemen, but it
failed.
Columbus, on the other hand,
found islands and helped to settle
them. He made four voyages to the
New World and started colonies
which were to grow into good sized
cities. Cuba and Haiti are among
the islands which he reached.
The name of "Hispaniola' was
given to Haiti. This name meant
Little Spain
During his third voyage Columbus
sailed along the northern coast Of
South America. He saw several
juts Of land, but thought they were
islands, not part of a great con-
tirent. 1t was not until years aft
erWard that the existence of South
America was proved.
Later in his third voyage, Colum-
bus sailed into the harbor of the
village of San Domingo. This viii
lage was the capital Of the colony
of Little Spain" and Columbus now
took charge of its affairs.
Columbus ordered work to be done
on gold mines and figured that in
a few years they would produce
great riches for the royal treasury
OF Spain. Indians were gathered for
work in the mines and also to be
taught the Christian faith.
Meanwhile members of the colony
had sailed back to Spain and had
complained against Columbus. King
Ferdinand decided TO send a new
governor to the colony and for this
purpose named Francisco Bobadilla.
Bobadilla reached the colony in
the summer of 1900 Quickly he
ordered the arrest of Columbus and
his two brothers. All three were
placed on sailing vessel and sent
back to Spain.
SO it happened that Columbus
reached Spain in chains" BY this

Horse In OiL Pit
 No April Fools Joke

Suddenly swerving off Highland avenue, he ran into the driveway of the station, and floundered into the grease pit. which proved to be a snug fit. His efforts to extricate himself were fruitiess.
 Police were notified, and Sergts. George Chatfield and Edward Sul- livan went to the scene with the de- partment's repair truck. Their ef- forts to pull the animal out were of no avail and the services of the street department were called in. To the rescue came Edward Squat iglla, driving Q seven ton truck with Q crane used by the department for digging ditches. A strong, thick rope was fastened securely around the midriff of the struggling animal, and he was lifted bodily out of the pit. The horse was returned to Mir. Kramer and placed back In service, none the worse for wear.
