Size important

In pumpkins, watermelons,
muskmelons and winter squash,
large size is generally good. In
other vegetables, stick 10 speci-
mems in good condition and me-
dunn in size. If they are Just
slightly large for the variety,
but in excellent condition, they
should win.
5-Unformity This means all
individual vegetables in an
entry should be the same size
and color and prepared with
the same length stems or all
with no stems. This point is
very important 10 the Judge.
Other things being equal the
most uniform entry will always
win.

Wrapping Rules
For Christmas Boxes
BY PRUDENCE PENNY

OWING TO the great dis
lance that the overseas Christ
mas mail must be transported
and the handling and storage
it must undergo, II is absolutely
necessary that all articles be
packed in boxes of metal, wood,
solid fiberboard or strong
double faced corrugated fiber
board reinforced with strong
gummed paper tape. Tie with
strong Irvine in addition 10 this.
1t is highly desirable that all
fiber-board boxes be securely
wrapped in heavy paper, #
available, as experience has
shown tAat-bexeS- m!thout-sa-
outer wrapper often becomes
crushed or split. thus allowing
the contents 10 escape.

Judging

BY ISABEL FUCKER
Detroit Times Garden Editor

BEFORE YOU have 10 pick
and prepare your entries for
harvest show, you really ought
to have a private tipoff as TO
what the judges look for when
they see your exhibit alongside
Of lots of others.
Now I'm one of those--a show
judge-so If you won't tell any
one, I'll enlarge upon the most
important Judging points as ap-
piled TO vegetables
There are five things a Judge
looks for in any entry of vege-
tables. / am listing them in
alphabetical order, because it
is hard 10 tell which is first in
Importance.

Pack TiqhtIy

Furthermore, as each parcel
is subject 10 censorship, delay
in handling may be minimized
by securing the coverage of the
parcel so AS to permit ready
inspection of the contents.
When combination packages
are made up, including mis-
cellaneous toilet articles, hard
candies. soaps. etc. the con-
tents should be tightly packed,
in order that the several ar
ticles may not be loosened in
transit, damaging the contents
or the covering OF the parcels.
Christmas boxes should be en-
closed in substantial containers.
Hard candies, nuts. caramels,
including those covered with
chocolate, cookies. fruit cake
and chocolate bars individually
wrapped in waXed paper, should
be enclosed in inner boxes Of
wood, metal or cardboard. Soft
candies, whether homemade or
commercial, do not carry well.
Sharp Instruments
Scaled packages Of candy
cigars, tobacco an toilet
articles in simplest mercantile
form may be placed in parcels
without affecting the parcel
post classification of such
packages.
Sharp-pointed or sharp-edged
instruments, such as razorS,
knives. etc. must have their
points or edges protected so
they cannot cut through their
coverings and damage other
mail or injure postal employees.
Perishable matter will not
be accepted, and the sending Of
fragile articles should be dis
couraCed.

money, money backed only by the
federal government. which is suffi

the volume needed for navigation.
That is not too lengthy and will be
appropriate and vital in any circular
or tract which might be prepared for
wide circulation.
When we have the MVA well in
hand, there is another question of out
standing importance. 1t has been a
dream of mine and no doubt of many
Others that we are economically in
need of wide and safe national high
ways extending both east to west,
and north to south, if we can only
come to ourselves and cease making
United States money, then turning it
over to the bankers at the cost of
printing, then borrowing it back from
the banks at a rate of interest salts
actory to the bankers. Not only do
the bankers own and control such
money but they have the Treasury
department make money for them at
any and such time as they wish to
increase the volume of money in cir
culation. Not only that, but the banks
may at their whim and pleasure, call
in loans, due and past due, refusing
to make new loans, thus contracting
the volume of money in circulation,
bringing on a panic as they did from
1920 to 1929. This power over the
money of the country make the bank
ers lord and master over farmers and
business and labor. If the bankers
are lord and master over the farmers
and business and labor, who made
them so? Congress of course; con-
gress was so dumb and flexible in the
hands of the Great CD Mr.. Glass and
his cohorts, in 1913 when the Federal
Reserve banking act was passed, that
they were brought into class by Mr..
Glass after the law was passed, and
taught to a certain extent the gist
of the very long and cumbersome text
of the enabling act. 1t is claimed
that congress passed the act not
knowing what it was all about 1t is
said that the act is so unnecessarily
long and wordy, purposely-that few
would take the time and sufficiently
devote themselves to the sober task
to read it. 1t is also said that the
enabling act of the Federal Reserve
law is so couched in technical terms
and language that only the most eX
pert attorneys are able to construe the
text of the act
There is one thing of which l am
reasonably certain in my own mind;
that he rashness and folly of which
congress has ben guilty in their stup-
idity and more or less willingness,
they can undo. Moreover, congress in
granting these broad powers to the
banks, have not altogether surrend
cred their power to make money for
the whole people as did congress for
The mighty Lincoln in 1862. Hence,
why not congress make money for the
Use of the whole people without in
.erest-now thus enabling them to in
;titute some of these much needed
public improvements without having
o pay interest to the privately owned
Federal Reserve banks?
1t will be interesting and edifying
or us to read our money-the money

new RULES FOR
SLAUGHTER
OF ARMY BEEF

War Food Administration require
ments for the setting aside of army
style" beef for government purchase
will be extended, beginning December
4, to all slaughtering plants where
more than 81 animals producing this
type of beef are slaughtered weekly,
and will affect equally all customers
of such plants.
Effective through amendment 16 to
VITO No. 75-2, the extended regula-
lions also require limited or full fed
eral inspection of set-aside beef pro-
duced in slaughter houses which ex-
coed the 51-head weekly minimum.
According to ]. Edgar Dick, regional
meat order representative of the VIA
Office of Distribution, the new action
will more equally distribute respon-
sibility in the procurement of beef
for military use.
VITO No. 1852 will continue to re-
quire affected slaughterers to set
aside. 60 percent of their choice and
good beef, and so per cent each of
commercial and utility grades (which
meet army specifications.

1912, it devoted itself to preliminary
organizational work.
Although recruitment of war pris.
oner members began in August, 1912
the organization did not shake itself
down until last January, when an
executive committee met to formulate
the policies of the new Emancipation
League.
"As Hitler's collapse is in sight, the
destruction of Japanese militarists
who are Hitler's followers is also not
far Off" the pro-democratic group re-
solved at an assembly on January Is,
1914. "The Japanese civilians and
soldiers both at home and abroad are
now at the highest pitch of suffering
and poverty. Among them war-weary,
anti-war and anti-militarist feelings
are daily growing in intensity and
scope.
"All this indicates that the time is
ripe for us to organize a peoples front
for gaining peace and freedom We
are proposing to all advanced people
that this peoples front should first be
formed"
The peoples front" emerged in the
form of the Emancipation League. A
manifesto written by it's leader, Okano
Susumu, set up these four detectives
1. Immediate cessation of war.
2. Immediate withdrawal of all Jap
anese troops, warships and govern
ment officials from occupied terri
tories.
g. Abolition of Japanese-seized priv
ileges in the occupied territories.
A. Restoration of the independence
and sovereignty of the occupied ter
ritories to their respective peoples.
To attain the ultimate aim of a
democratic Japanese state, the Eman-
cipation League manifesto called, in
addition, for:
1. Abolition of the military oligar-
chy in Japan.
g Abolition of the financial oligar-
cshy through the dissolution of trusts
and monopolies.
3. Freedom of speech and assembly,
including the restoration of trade UNI
ions and agricultural associations
4. Establishment of a popular dem
ocratic government through the "ac-

EMANCIPATION LEAGUE
LEADER


Head of the anti-militarist Japanese
Peoples Emancipation League in Chi
ma is the 52-year-old Okano Susumu.
ILong an active and prominent leader
in the Japanese anti-war movement,
Susumu is the best-known member of
the seven-man central committee of
the Japanese Communist party.
His career as an anti-fascist dates
from 1913, when he participated in
the Japanese trade union movement
as an active member of the Yu All Kai,
one of Japan's earliest unions. He
was present at the Inauguration of the
japanese Communist party in 1922
central committee.
Susumu took part in the drafting
of the Outline of the Situation in
Japan and the Task of the Japanese
Communist party" in which the inn
mediate aims of the party were stated
as resistance to the development of
military-fascism and the promotion of
democratic and anti-feudal reforms in
Japan
Susumu served as the Japanese
spokesman in the councils of the
Communist International and in 1885
he was elected a member of the Com
munist InternationaPs executive com
mittee. Soon afterward he returned
to Japan, where he worked under
ground until 1913, when he went to
Yenan.
