washington, ID. L.
| At a recent White House press and
radio conference, the President, in
talking Of certain measures he had
recommended to benefit men and
women leaving the armed service
explained that long before the de-
mobilization of the fighting forces ac'
itually begins. many veterans are
"demobilized' who, for military or
other reasons. are returned to civil
life. One million have already been
discharged and the process eontin-
ues, while others are being taken
into the service.
To some degree this process Is
paralleled by other forms OF demo-
lbilization and. congress has realized
that the machinery for reconverting
the American economy to peace
time operation must be set up i'm
mediately. One group, a special
committee on postwar economic pol
Icy and planning Of which Senator
George Is the chairman, has finished
Its first report which deals with
cancellation OF war contracts, dis
position and sale Of surplus proper
ty and Industrial rehabilitation and
conversion.
Quite aside from the content OF
the report, the document is impor-
tant for three reasons
First, 1t provides for action by leg
islation rather than by executive de-
cree, and emissions board whose
first responsibility is to congress
rather than to the Chief Executive.
Gan important step in returning to
the natural processes of democracy
interrupted by the war;
Second. II has been written with
realization that in the re-shuffling OF
industry, small business must get
break. 1t is quite probable that
Senator Murray. who has taken the
troubles Of small business under his
wings, will contribute considerably to
the bill which will be introduced
to implement the purpose of the
report.
Non-Political Expert
Third, and very important. Is the
fact that the report was coordinated
and probably largely written by
paid. non-political expert hired out
Of the committee funds as its coun-
sci. Similar assistance Is always
utilized by the tax committee where
highly technical knowledge is essen
tial, and 1t has long been the feeling
Of Senator George and others that
one Of the great weaknesses Of con-
gressional procedure is the lack of
expert staff assistance for this type
Of work: the coordinatng and CORE
lating of the information brought out
In the hearings and the contributions
OF the various committees, and the
facts and opinions resulting from the
investigations and the special knowl-
edge Of the individual members.
/ As small group Of us newsmen
and women sat in the committee
room and questioned Scott Russell,
the counsel, we were impressed with
his grasp Of the subject and the
way he separated political opinion
from the factual content and the in
depreciation of the various para
graphs as he read them over to US
or we questioned him concerning
them. Russell was a former district
attorney in Georgia and he was also
president of one of the largest bust
nesses in the South, the Bibbs Manu-
featuring company. Gray-haired,
but young looking, and vigorous with
an easy common-sense approach,
Russell gave you the feeling he knew
what he was talking about.

Business and Government

But regardless Of the merits Of
this particular case, it seems to me
rather significant that the thinking
leaders in congress, Of whom there
are always many, realize the i'm
portance of getting (to use a some
what shopworn expression in its best
sense) more business into govern.
ment'-business in the sense Of
businesslike and efficient procedure,
not the bias Of any particular bust
ness.
have gone into some detail in
previous columns in regard to the
importance Of small business in the
American economy, ! will only say
here that Senator Murray, although
not member Of this committee,
was called In for consultation, and
undoubtedly part Of his legislative
thinking will be Incorporated into
the bill which imagine will be in
troduced before this is printed.

Efforts are being made by the big

on the back of the head, apparent.

1t was the latter, autopsy sur
geons found, that caused her death.
The body was believed to be that
OF Mrs. Logan, although it was so
badly decomposed that her cousin
Mrs. Frank L. Ellis of Pasadena,
was unable to identity it.
Deputy Dist. Atty. John R.
Barnes said Mrs. Judson admitted
she buried the body but that she
refused to elaborate on that state
ment. Her husband, Lee Borden
Judson, 81, bank messenger
whom she married last May and
who lived with her at the Logan
residence, was held as a material
witness.
The other death into which the
offices were inquiring was that .ot
Mrs. Emily Latham, parole Of
ficer with whom Mrs. Judson was
living shortly before her marriage.
Mrs. Latham's death was ascribed
to a heart attack and her body has
been cremated.
Mrs. Logan had been missing
since June l, police said. She had
employed Mrs. Judson as house
keeper since October, 1913, and
had sponsored her parole from a
state prison where She had served
10 years of life sentence for the
murder of Jacob c. Denton, a
wealthy mining and oil man whose
body was found in the basement
of his Los Angeles home Septem-
Der %, 1920, with a gunshot wound
in the head.
Authorities started an investiga-
ton of Mrs. Logan's disappearance
after signatures on parole reports
and other documents appeared
suspiciously unlike hers, they said

AID WAR FLIERS

WASHINGTON, Dec. 21.-tR-
r.suits" are the latest toys for
srnv and Navy fighter pilots.
Bot1 services gave out this bit
nj military fashion news today,
tsp ARMY announcement going into
some detail on the garments de-
sim i 10 keep filters from ''black-
pe out" in steep dives and other
maneuverS.
The Arn1y's "G-Suit" the &c"
is for gravity-is a pair Of high
wasted pneumatic pants with
builtin suspenders and girdle, and
air bladders over the abdomen,
thighs and calves.
The idea is to keep the blood
from pihng up in the lower ex-
tremities, and help the heart pump
brood to the brain.
Compressed air from the plane S
vacuum system initiates the blad-
oers. Automatic valves control
tie pressure in relation to the
gravity pull.
The War Department said men
wearing the suit had been cap
tired by the enemy, so that news
Of it can be given out without
harm.
The Army called its suit an i'm
provement over one previously
used by the Navy.
The Navy said wnen a fighter
pilot makes a pass at an enemy
the blood may be pulled away
from his brain for 20 or 80 Sec
onds under a pressure three or
four times his weight. In pull
ing out Of dive he may be for
a few seconds under a pull eight
Or nine times the force of grav-
lty. The Navy added:
Under these circumstances mis-
BRAN soon becomes foggy and
his sight blurred. He is a sitting
duck for enemy pilots.'
The announcements came short
y after the Canadian Air Force
disclosed that it has developed
an anti-blackout suit. The Cana
dan outfit mas been described as
a thin rubber suit with a lining
INTO which water or air is pump
ed before the fier goes into ac-
ton.

Oil Journal Bem0ans Deadlock
Continued from page one)

CONTINUED from page one)
The situation, in brief. as sum-
med up by independents who
have dropped into the Montana
Oil Journal office during recent
week is:
l. They'd like to spend some of
their money in 1914 in Wildcat
on the reservation.
2. They cannot and will not do
so, as long as the present lease
regulations of the tribal council
are in effect.
What most o. them declare is
needed to break the deadlock is
simple decision of the council to
lease unbroken blocks, sufficiently
large to warrant the expense of
prospecting them.
Operators are having no trouble
in finding such blocks and such
conditions in other parts of the
state. and it is these other areas
that will get the play in 1914, un-
less conditions change.

It Seems Entirely Too
Good To Be True

A seed house of unquestioned
integrity has issued its 1914 cata.
loque and in it there is boxed
story in which a woman grower
makes the claim that from 80
pounds of seed potatoes she har.
vested 976 pounds of potatoes.
It is inconceivable that 80 little
seed could produce such q large
quantity of potatoes.
Maybe so, but on the basis of
what is ordinarily considered a
good yield, this woman grower
certainly made an error in her re-
port of seed planted.
