Whisker. ln the White House

Somebody figured out the other day that Thomas E. Dewey, if elected, would be the first mustached president in 32 years. That is interesting as far as it goes, but it doesn't go far enough. After all the subject of whiSkerS in the White House is not one to be dismissed casually. So, without splitting hairs over the mat ter, we propose today to give you some what fuller exploration and documenta- tion. In the first place, it should be noted that MT. Dewey'S mustache is quite in the tradition of his party. For the first pres idential whiskerS came to the White House on the chin of the first Republican president, Abraham Lincoln. Before that, the people of the United States had elect ed smooth-faced presidents with mono tonous regularity for 72 years, from Washington to Buchanan. (Sideburns don't count in our Statistics.) Since Lin coin there have been dozen Republican presidents, and three different Demo- cratic incumbentS. And non-partisan total shows that the smooth-faced chief executives are in the minority to 8.
 In fact, until Woodrow Wilson started the clean-Shaven vogue in 1912, whiSkerS of assorted sizes and colorS had been familiar sight at 1900 Pennsylvania Ave I1ue except III CLlG dQIIllLllSLTdClOLlS OI ALI drew Johnson and William Mckinley. There's no lodging the fact that whisk- CTS are pretty much of Republican pre- rogative. Grover Cleveland was the first and only Democrat of the post-Lincoln period who didn't give the barber carte blanche He also was the first president to confine himself to a mustache. Of the 13 Republicans, eight were either strang- CTS to the razor or had only scraping acquaintance.
 AS to styles, the presidential whiskers may be classified thuS-chin WhiSkerS, Lincoln; full boards, Grant, Hayes, Gar field, Harrison; mustacheS, Cleveland. Theodore Roosevelt, Taft. The mustacheS might be Subdivided as folloWS-handle- bar, Cleveland and Taft; scraggly, Roose- welt. That leaves Chester A. Arthur un- accounted for He sported the fancieSt spinach of them all-the shaved-chin style also affected by General Burnside, Emperor Franz Josef of Austria, and the creator of Swamp Root Tonic. Boards figured in two close elections and broke even Bearded Rutherford B. Hayes beat smooth-shaven Samuel J. Tilden by whisker in the House of Representatives. But the elegant chin adornment of Charles Evans Hughes couldn't save his early lead over Wilson in the 1916 race That's all. We just thought you ought to know.

Handouts or Freedom

The farmers of this country rank among the most abundant food produc- CTS in the world, and they are noted for their independence. They have devel- oped cooperative marketing organizations that talk" for them in matters of dis tribution, while they concentrate on pro- duction These farmer-owned business organizations reflect the view of farmers.
 Recently, Ernest c. Strobeck, Secre- tary of the Dairymen's League Cooper ative Association, said of subsidies: "An undertaking of food subsidies requires at the outset determination of the kind of government that we want. Do we want a government supported by its citizens-a government of, for and by the people? Or, do we want government to which everyone looks for handouts and detailed regulations of their everyday lives?"
 Farmers have been forced to accept subsidies, although they continue to op- pose them in principle as threat to the independence of everyone. They are frank in their belief that higher prices for farm products when necessary are preferable to living at the whim of government au- thorities. The country is fortunate to have that kind of farmers

How to Help Win a War

Veterans of the last war-those who now have sons taking up the sword against the same foe, as well as those who do not-have good cause to give full support to this war; for they have known the bitter hardships of the fighting man and the harsh demands of war itself.
 Yet by virtue of these same reasons these veterans could rightfully expect that MT. Civilian who has never known a war should give more than they; for by the veterans participation in the blOody struggle Of 1918 he has given full measure to his country.
 Fortunate for this nation the majority Of these veterans are not inclined that way.
