City To Change
 Garbage Hauling

Following discussion Mon day night at the city council meeting regarding hauling of city garbage, which is now done by private parties, the council ordered that an ordinance be drawn up providing that the city engage in garbage hauling. The ordinance will have it's first reading at the next council meeting.
 Criticism was voiced by City Health Officer Dr. A. Bates Jones, and by council members, that pickup of garbage at res taurants and other places are delayed in many cases with a resultant hazard to health Members expressed the belief that the present haulers are often delayed in the removal of refuse because they also engage in freight and moving work, and that one city truck, devoted ex- clusively to garbage, will remedy the situation.

Kodiak Skin
 Gift To FDR

A beautiful g 1-2-feet Kodiak bear rug, a fitting memento of Kodiak which has achieved worldwide renowD as the habi tat of "The Worlds Largest Bear, was given to President Roosevelt at the time of his visit.
 However, because of the bre- vity of the Presidents visit no formal presentation was made.
 The idea of the gift was Char les Madsen's, owner of the To- tenn Igloo Curio shop, president of the Kodiak Guides Associa- tion, and famous hunter, who thought it would be an appro- prlate souvenir for the President and who gave'it as 8 gift from the people of Kodiak. Arrange ments were made so hurriedly that the mounted hide, packed in large carton topped with green wrapping paper, had to be taken by auto to Erskine's dock and was there picked up by a small naval launch.
 A naval public relations officer said he understood the hide was destined to be placed in the Presidents den at Hyde Park.

DISCHARGE PAY:
House Votes $500

Arguing that higher payments
would represent a soldiers bonus
which should be left for later discus
sion, the house passed bill provid-
ing for mustering-out pay of $500 to
discharged vets with go days serv-
ice and 500 to those released be-
fore 60 days.
With is, 900, 900 vets including
those already discharged standing to
benefit from the measure, total cost
of payments was estimated at 31a
billion dollars.
After passage by the house, the
bill was sent for approval to the SEN
ate, which previously enacted legis-
lation providing for maximum pay
ments ranging from $500 to vets
overseas for 10 months or more, to
5000 to those with less than II
months service in the U. S. Unless
the senate okayed the house bill,
parliamentary procedure required
the two chambers to get together to
work out new legislation.

An Abiding Peace
Common Sense Treatment

Books on the postwar world can
almost be described as the only
commodity of which there is now
surplus production, but this is one
Towards an Abiding Peace"-that
can be taken seriously. R. M. Mac
liver, professor in Columbia univer-
sity, for one thing writes a clear,
simple unprofessorial language, say
ing what he means directly and with
out qualifications.
He is for a world order but is too
practical to believe you can have
it by just writing world constitu-
ton. He wants temporary peace
which in way carries on from the
war alliance, and then a second
stage in which we move to real in
ternational control. Furthermore,
he thinks that sooner or later our
present enemies must be taken in
unless we are going to let the third
World war slowly tester.
An international order is an inter-
national order to Mr.. MacIver.
There are no weasel words.
Mr.. MacIver has worked out his
plans in some detail. There is lot
of common sense in Towards an
Abiding Peace"-on a subject on
which a good deal of pretentious
philosophizing is being done.

Bond-Selling Plan

Rep. Richard P. Gale of Mime
sofa has plan for increasing bond
sales to individual citizens-the sales
which it is most important to make.
He thinks it is a cheap and easy
way for the government to increase
sales and interest in sales on the
part of the average man. Senator
Guffey offered similar plan.
Periodically, at intervals not
greater than three months, he would
have the treasury make a drawing.
And the person holding the winning
number-he would be bondholder,
of course, would get a prize of from
hundred to Is thousand dollars.
1t wouldn't be a lottery because
nobody could lose-you would have
your bond for the money you invest
ed and your bond would be your
ticket.

EUROPE:
Pound Supply Lines

U. S. bombers ripped rail lines
supplying German troops in south
ern Italy as American and British
forces pressed against the Nazis'
winter-line conferred on Casino, key
to the road to Rome.
With two Of three main rail lines
temporarily put out Of use, the en-
envy was forced to route supplies
over bomb-pocked highways, some
of which were snarled by the wreck
age of bridges.
As U. S. artillery laid down a cur
tain of thunderous fire over German
defense emplacements before Cas-
sino preparatory to the infantry's
charge forward, British units to the
west engaged Nazi troops along the
Garigliano river.
Along the Adriatic coast to the
east, Canadian forces were held to
short gains in hard, close-in fighting.

And so finally, the man with the
long cigarette holder, just back from
the world battlefronts where $50
much-per-hour-per-day" wasn't the
argument, but "so-many-lives-per-
hour" was, where world maps were
being re-drawn, where Americas at
titude and action was about to re-
write history, became little i'm
patient.
The Action Date
1--WE have come to the action
date" said the President, 1--WE have
been talking here since Sunday. If
you can't take action by agreement,
I will have to take action by my
self"
He took it and he took the rail-
roads. To say that Washington was
not surprised would be to misjudge
Washington.
The root Of the whole trouble in
this and all the labor disputes has
been that there were too many
cooks. The trouble with the confus-
ing statements which come out of
Washington is that there are too
many cooks. And yet, we have that
paradox that when there are too
many people handling war prob
lens, the only cure so far has been
to substitute too few-to pass the
buck to one MANTLE President. The
answer to that is that one man
simply cannot do it all.
The war is too far away from us.
We cannot lay aside our personal
and natural desire to make as much
money out of it as the next fellow.
This has gone on from the begin
ning-employer, making his profits,
essential labor demanding and get
ting his high wages, the farmer. his
incentive, and then those who fol-
low after, shouting, "you did it for
them, do it for mel"
Not one group is blameless, only
those who have been unable to bring
pressure, hesitated to do so. And,
for the most part, each group sin
cerely believing that it was getting
no more than its just due, the rest
were the profiteers, the chiselers.
The solution?
At this writing, National Service
Act that will order who does what
and for how much-just as it is in
the army.

U. S. HEMP:
Cut Production

Because of the improvement in
imports from the Caribbean and
Mediterranean areas, the govern
ment's hemp-growing program in
the Middle West will be cut to
one-third of 1913 production, and only
IA of AZ processing plants will be kept
in operation.
Raised on contract to the govern
ment, farmers found hemp profitable
last year, their net yield per acre
being larger than from any other
crop in the nation, in some cases
reaching 5000, it was said.
In seeking to relieve threatened
hemp shortage after the outbreak of
war, the government undertook con-
struction of processing plants in AZ
communities, and arranged for
farmers to grow 1900 acres of the
fiber in each of the districts. The
plants were erected at an estimated
cost of 100000 each.

MILK SALES:
Bottles or Containers

Chicago's big battle to determine
whether milk shall be sold in paper
containers as well as glass bottles
still has not gotten out of the courts,
even though the state Supreme court
ruled that paper containers could
not be used under the wording of
the citys disputed ordinance govern
ing distribution of the product.
At p: esent, Chicago dairies will
continue to package the milk in pa
per containers pending filing of
motion for state Supreme court
rehearing of the case. Since the
courts have declared no interest in
the sanitary aspects of the question
of bottling, but have merely con-
fined themselves to the wording of
the city ordinance, rewriting of
the law would permit legal use of
paper containers.

BURMA:

With U. S. bombers blasting a
path, American trained Chinese
troops under Lieut.. Gen. Joseph Still
well gained ground in mountainous
western Burma, while farther to the
south units of the British Fourteenth
army fought Jap counter-attacks to
stall their own offensive.
The Chinese we're fighting to clear
the way for engineers constructing
a new supply route to China, since
Jap conquest had closed off the Bur
ma road. To hamper enemy opera
tons, U. S. bombers dropped 20 tons
of explosives on a Jap troop en-
campment in the rear of the battle
front.

PACIFIC FRONT:
Macarthur to STAY

U. S. medium and heavy bombers
ranged widely over the Pacific,
blasting Jap bases supplying hard
pressed enemy troops, and hitting
installations and airfields in the stra-
tegic Marshall islands.
AS U. S. armies were pinning the
foe back in the South Pacific area,
Secretary of War Henry Stimson
announced in Washington, D. c.,
that General Macarthur would not
be retired when he reached the age
of "a on January 20. Retired at his
own request in 1887, Macarthur was
recalled to active duty following the
outbreak of World War II.
In New Guinea, U. S. bombers
smashed at the Jap base of We
wax, above American positions at
Saidor; and in New Britain, explo-
sives were dropped on the big feed
er center of Rabaul, and on barges
carrying supplies along the coasts.

AGRICULTURE:
Hog Permits

With thousands of hogs remaining
unsold after marketings, a permit
system for shipments was imposed
at the Chicago stockyards. Under
the procedure, commission firms
were allotted weekly quotas based
on percentage of the total volume
they handled during the first II
months of 1913, and farmers were
to be advised when to sell.
Through the permit system al
ready in operation in other centers,
it is hoped to limit shipments to
packers capacities, cut feed bills,
and reduce shrinkage, bruises and
death losses.
Drouth
Producer of winter wheat, the
great plains area of the Midwest
has been suffering from an unheard
of seasonal drouth.
Conferred in Nebraska, the drouth
has extended to the Rocky Mountain
and western states, where the stor-
age of snowfall for spring and sum-
mer irrigation is much less promis-
ing than at this time last year.
Good rains in the late winter and
early spring could largely offset the
effects of the drouth.

DRIED MILK

Army quartermaster corps labo-
ratories have developed a method
of drying and preserving whole milk
so that it will keep for year even
under tropical conditions. Dried milk
made by methods now in use will
become rancid in the tropics.
In the army formula, the water
content of the milk is reduced to
2.25 per cent, and an inert gas is
introduced into the alright contain
er as a preservative. The new
method could become a profitable
industry: it is said.

RUSSIA:
Baltic Push

Preceded by thunderous barrage
of heavy artillery, Russ infantry
pushed into German lines below Len
ingrad, and cut the enemy's rail
communications farther to the south,
70 miles from the Latvian border.
The Reds were reported to have
thrown 100000 men into the battle
on a $50 mile front, and units of
Russia's Baltic fleet stationed near
Leningrad were said to have par
ticipated in the bombardment of
German positions prior to the big
push.
Stiffening German resistance
slowed the Reds progress on other
fronts, with the Nazis reporting con-

through in the prewar Polish area
