 There were some further discuss Slons, during which 1t was agreed that Coy. Brlcker of Ohio, was pretty sure to be the Republican candidate, and during which part of tho political discontent was blamed on OPA rationing. Tho President seemed to think that tho country would have to take TO. tioning in It's stride regardless Of political consequences,
 Looking across nt the Totund figure Of MT. Noe, the Presl- dent observed, "It looks as # Jlni- Inie Noe K eating oil right down in IsOuiyIana."

Spring Is Here

No, we don't smell 1t In the air or see it on the hlllsldes, but in the news from Hartford. There Is talk up there of mak- ing constitutional changes SO that minor court judges will be named by the gover- nor, just as he names members of the supreme, superior, and common pleas courts. That always happens when spring is on its way. It's a few days early this session, because the Legislature hopes to adjourn earlier this year.
 It taxes the memory to recall when the General Assembly was first asked to give up it's political hold on the minor courts. At first the idea didn't even get across the threshold in either the Senate or House. Then a gentleman named Wilbur L. Cross started to press the matter and we feel pretty sure had he been continued in office he might have succeeded in hav- ing brought this proposed constitutional amendment before the people long before this.
 As it now stands the matter is no nearer today than 1t was ten years ago. It has to go through the regular procedure Of Senate and House agreement this year; must be brought up again two years hence and then referendum. All in all minor court judgeship appointments by the governor couldn't be made in less than four years. Keeping that always in mind the members of the Legislature have always managed to make that four years long ways off, They don't seem to be any differently disposed this term.

A Matter of Form

It is difficult to maintain good typo graphical form in newspapers today. At one time papers held to tried and fast rules on what to capitalize ard what not tC capitalize. The good, safe rule Of keeping common nouns down and proper nouns up is more or less abused and as far as some are concerned every other word is capitalized
 But what are common and what are proper nouns in the newspaper realmP You find senator and king and alderman and sergeant and major-general capped; that Is, written with capital letters when they are hanging loose in sentence, not before name, They are given equality with names of the Deity. Publicity writers from the outside and those who supply reading material from multitudinous bureaus that flood the mails and news paper offices arc very free and easy with their capital letters. They are likely to "cap" everything from petunia to pachyderm,
 The newspaper day is too short and the personnel too short-handed these days to sit down and revise the rules. So you find articles running pretty much In the upper case, that Is words capita llzed. With the growth of committees and bureaus and boards the length and breadth of the land, new series Of words and phrases resulting from the war 1t Is nothing to come on committee names two or three lines in length. It Is hard to slight any one name so they all go m the cap" class. So 1t goes. The news IS there even If the form is not too good.

The Drive Goes On

Some time between now and the end of 1043 an Army of American soldiers will invade the continent of Europe in what we expect will be the beginning of the end. Starting from North Africa or England or the United States, or quite possibly from all three, hundreds of thousands of our men will be ferried across waters in which the greatest sub
 marine fleet of ali time, now being readied, will turk. From the air they will be bombed by the Luftwaffe - per- haps by those Nazi aircraft which have
 been so mysteriously missing of late. After they land-the majority that does land-they will seek to whip mighty German Army which has had years in which to prepare powerful Qualifications against the very invasion that now is in the making. We shall win, at a cost that is ircomprehensible to us now Tens or scores of thousands of men will be killed outright. Other tens or scores of thousands will be mortally wounded, long as they survive In misery Even Ah1AG WAA " WOuh0SAD b0v AAbV A~SNstyb and will need loving care. Thousands, perhaps, will be taken prisoners, even in an ultimately victorious campaign.
 Who is going to look after these men2 The Army--and the Red Cross. Who IS going to help them send reassuring word to the folks at home? Who is going to see to the welfare of prisoners2 Who will distribute cigarets and candy In the very lighting lines; search records to see whether John Is dead, wounded, missing, or merely too busy and tired to write;
 maintain clubs in rest areas; produce surgical dressings; gather blood for trans. fllsIons? The Red Cross.
 March is Red Cross month. Faced with the greatest challenge to nnerciful duty In its long history, the Red Gross this month is asking the American people for $l2O, O,0OO,00. The Red Gross always has been deserving of more than It's most generous friend has done for 1t. This year, this very month, 1t deserves even more than before to get really big con- iribution from YOU. You won't have doue too much # you give until it actu- ally, physically hurts.

The blue Mondays are over and now the week starts of anew with everything wide open including the barn door. Trips to town for many weeks have been dolor- ous affairs. All stores and many business concerns closed In fuel-saVing effort Those who followed their usual schedule of going to work Mondays found 1t C de, pressing business. Streets deserted ana the town as dead as a first class holiday. But once again the doors are opened ana yesterday noon was once again hurly' burly, also the restaurants. Blue Mon. days have been shelved for the present and the shoppers arc not sorry.

generations. Il

generations, It V pFobaDly not 700 mitch to say that the world haB gathered more inspiration from some of It's distinguished prisoners than from any other single group
 We can Dc sure als0 that in difs ferent parts Of the world today there are many iIien in prison who are doing the Kingdom Of God more good than fl they had . continent tO-contInent h0ok-up. NlemOller is case in point, but nc is only one Of many. It is said that Hitler fears only two men = the courageolib Catholic Archbishop Of MaInz and the head Of the Protestant Church ifi Germany. And while these men are not in prison, they gre under such strict surveillance that they aro practically prisoners. The great Archbishop Of Norway iS the figure ifi whom all patriotic aspirations center.
 It k not where we arc that serve God and their country bet counts. Men in prison soinetineg tor than do the men who live in palaces.

Shopping today Is one of the most try ing of tasks resulting from war restric- tons. The quick shopping days are no more. Also telephone shipping IS out. It is necessary to "shop around" as they say because ali that you need Is not in one store or in one locality. Hours are spent each week stocking up on food and other sundries needed in the household. Pa- tience is at last coming Into It's own as virtue; also tolerance, tolerance of the other fellow. Everybody is in the same boat so resentment about trifles is sofne- thing to cast aside.

But committee members said the Idea was put forward very much like the man who says he can. not come to dinner but wants to Do urged.
 There was no urging from any of tho Democrats present except ex-dov. Olson Of California. From the rest came stony silence.
 Before they went to the White House, the leaders met at the Mayflower hotel to discuss their strategy. They had been selected by Prank Walker as the result of Q stormy session of the entire committee in Chicago Gt which there WIS open revolt against the President, and at which it was dc- Cided to send a small delegation to the White House to tell him so.
 Nine committee members were picked, plus five executives Of the party. At the advance meeting Nt the MayiloWor, it was suggested that one difficulty would be to keep tho President from doing all the talking, and to get him to lis. ten to the delegation'S complaints. BILL OF COMPLAINTS
 So Prank Walker suggested that three Do appointed to do the talk ing. Prank McIIale, Of Indiana, agreed that this was c good idea, and suggested James Noe, Of Lou isIGna, to represent the South, James Qgigloy, Of Nebraska, for tho West, and Mrs. Emma duffcy Miller, of Pennsylvania, for tho East. Apparently Walker thought these three were too fortnight He b understood to have had in mind Mrs. Carolyn Wolfe, Of Utah o. S. Warden Of Montana, and eX-doVernor Olson of Call- fornia, known to Dc more friendly Co tho President. So Walker shifted his suggestion to q previ' O,iS one that tho delegation drew up c written statement naming their complaints,
 The strategy was that if the
 President did oil the talking,
 then they could then leave thlS
 bill of complaint with him.
 So tho bill Of complaint was drafted. It began with this sen- tCnce: "Jlmmy Nee says that thc party K in C hell of Q Biess." Then for three pager, single.spacod, it proceeded to detail the woes Of the party, casting vitrtolic condcmna"

However, 1t Is possible that stores Will open one night week in the near future to comply with the law which calls for forty-eight working hours q week. Mer- chants will find that solution, as It IS not very easy to supply forty.eight day time hours weekly in these businesses. The one night week plan would service those war workers who find It hard to get time during the day to do the necessary shopping.

Your Health

FRESH AHR, SUNLIGHT AND
 TONgTLg

A mother writes that her seven, year-old daughter came home from school with Q message from tho school nurse who, the mother says. told the child that ie sho didn't have her tonslls removed before they grew any larger she might choke.
 The mother has known an along that tho child's tonslls were quite large, but the child is healthy, husky and never has any sore throat, ear trouble or other disturb ance of health whlch might be at- tributed to the tonsils. But tho Idea that the large tonsils might choke the child worries her and Hho Won- ders whether she should follow the school nurses advice and have the child's tonsils removed. E
 In the first place the child is in no danger of choking, notwith- standing the size of her tonsils.
 Tn the next place itlSnormalfor children to have large tonsils, es- pecially in the late winter and early spring season of the year. Hyper trophy or overgrowth or enlarge ment of the tonsils ct this season Is probably Q protective, beneficial re- action to the more frequent minor respiratory infections the child iS exposed to at this time of year. It is not the cold or damp weather, but the lack of fresh air and direct sunshine at this time of year that favora increased prevalence of res- plratory infections.
 By way of partial compensation for lack of sunlight on naked skin which generates vitamin D-every child, youth or young adult who lives where daily exposure of naked skin to sunshine is not possible or practicable, should have c daily ra. ton of Wtamin D internally, per. haps 2,000 or 5000 units Q day throughout the fell, winter and early spring.
 Vitamin D may be taken for this purpose either In tablets which are pleasant to eat and contain 500 units of D with . fair amount of B-complex, or in nose drops, each drop containing l60 units of D in oil Vegetable, Assimilable oil, not mineral olD. The latter is especial. ly useful where enlarged tonslls and adenoids are associated with stufR- nes of nose, sneesing, coughing, wheeEing.
 Fifty years ago syrup of tho iO- dide of iron was much prescribed for "scrofula" or "struma," what ever that may have been. Today 'scrofula" or ''struma' H just Q quaint name for iymphatiSm--ex- cesive growth of lyTnphatic or ade- hold tissue eVerywhere--in tonsilS, adenoids, around mouth of appen- dix, nodes, "kernelS' or glands" In the neck, etc, And Iron iodide is still 0 helpful remedy in many such children, but much better, ] think, and certainly easier to take, is iron gluconate In capsule with vitanain B-complex and got the iodido from tho iodIn Ration--instructlonS for taking it available on request, If you inolose stamped envelope bear- Ing your address.

 Here iB fresh evidence, lt seems to us, of the need for early action on leRiBlation making income taxes deductible ct the source. Some 4O,' COG. .0O0 persons will have to fllO in- come tax returns this month. Many Of these are doing So for tho first time, and many others have doubt- leBs already discovered that tho ln. crease in their tax liability for this year was far greater than they had anticipated. Tn both these groups there Rre certain to Do many thou- sands who will have to default on their tax payments unless they can raise tho money from sources outs sIde their current income. This means, iil most cases, either caShing in war bonds or borrowing the money.
 Obviously, neither of these con- tributes to . sound war economy. For every bond that is redeemed another bond has to Dc sold, which makes the financing program just that much more difflcult Ger the treasury And to the extent that the taxpayer has to borrow ct his bank to meet his tax obligations, it means that tho treasury itself might as well have done this much more Of it's financing through the banks.
