MIx-UPS BY FEDERAL
BUREAUS KEEP UP

1t would seem there could be an end
, to the muddling of directives issuing
q from Federal Bureaus. But that long
hoped for dream as we'll be forgotten
The only way to bring an end to this
everlasting confusion is to rub out the
bureaus and start all over. Only the
most hopeful and optimistic of the mil
lion and one people who are affected by
these orders have stuck it out this long
without demanding summary action by
congress- The most formidable allies of
the bureaus, of course are the politicians
and several million who draw fat salar-
les for creating this confusion.
Right now the country is beset by su-
per-bunglng and muddling in two vital
activities-manpower and prices. The
'manpower situation was badly enough
bungled before the President broke out
with his national service draft plan,
which neither he nor his advisers had
the slightest expectation of becoming law.
1t wasn't issued with that in mind.
e 1t came at time when Congress and
the White House were at greater logger
heads than usual and served only as a
means to further mess up the situation.
all of which is at the expense of the ma
tons nerves. 1t threw industry and
agriculture into throes of uncertainty
and has reacted mostly in slowing down
orderly production. As to solving grow
ing problem it was nil.
In Congress there are some conscien-
tious, hard working and hard thinking
members who are trying honestly. to
evolve plan which will keep jobs filled
and military spots going. But mostly
these members are not cOnverSant with
the White House or the main leaders
who never move without White House
, introductiOnS and not much can be hop
! ed for from their efforts.
: Months and years of manipulating
: price ceilings and floors have failed to
consummate a program based on needs,
demands and production capacity 1t is
all the more serious that this continued
befuddling goes on as regards vital foods.
Of the many items that should have
proper and sound price control food is
the most vital and yet it still is exposed
10 grave dangers through the ineffective
and absurd rulings and programs. =.
One need go no further in a field OF
inquiry than here in Imperial Valley
where foodstuffs predominate, in fact
where they constitute practically the. ent
tire enterprise of the area. No one Knows
between sun-up and sun-dOwn where the
price ceiling, if any, will land while there
Just isn't any floor. *<i.s
Competent persons, not connected with
any Federal bureau, go almost berserk
when surplus food commodities are men
toned They emphasize the fact that at
this particular time there should be no
such thing and challenge the incompet-
ents to go a hundred miles from any
productive center and not find people
actually without items in the surpluses,
all with the means to obtain them.
1t is time to bring order out of disorder
and the start must be at the top, wedding
out incompetents. Only when firm,
adequate and workable policy is reached
by the top bosses will there be any relief.

WE, THE WOMEN
THE WOMEN-- Bobby Sox Brigade Can Find Real Heroes In Every Town

But the 16-year-old girls who swoon at Sinatra probably don't even know the names of more than one or two of the young men who have been decorated for their brav- cry and daring and devotion to duty.
 What is worse, they don't see anything of the hero in plain CT Joe who is keeping them from knowing any of the bitter realities of war.
 DREAM WORLD
 They are living in a dream world where their hero isn't a young man having a part in the greatest event of their generation-but a civilian singing into a microphone. If they wanted real hero to look up to, most of them could find one from home in their own neighborhods.
 But while our schol boys are be- ing ofrced into maturity at an ear- ly age-our girls apparently aren't even being given an appreciation of what is going on in the world.
 And so when their country is offering them real heroes to admire they build hero out of 8 micro phone. a grooming voice, and their

known players handle the cards as expertly as the declarer did on to- days hand.
 South's play was helped by the fact that West doubled. West cashed the ace and king of hearts, then led the club jack. Declarer won the ace and queen of clubs, then ruffed his last heart in dummy. The club king was played and South discarded the five of dia- monds. He ruffed the fourth club and followed wit hthe ace of dia- mondS and low diamond to the Ring. Dummy's last diamond was ruffed. Placing both spade honors in the West hand, South led the jack of spades, and West was on the spot. With only trumps left, he wo nthe eleventh trick, but then was compelled to lead into declarer's tenace.

the patient is concerned with keeping him clean-the bath, care of the hair and nails care of the mouth and teeth, changing of bed, washing hands and face for meals, possibly changing dressings. While this sounds simple enough, more than 8 little skill is involved in such procedures, and not everyone can do them equally well. More over, the degree of skill with which they are done may influ- ence the patients recovery favor ably or unfavorably. For exam pie, bath, carelessly given, or giv- en without regard for the protec- tion of the patient may lower his resistance and cause him to de- velop cold which becomes a seri- ous complication.
 How many things contribute to the comfort of the patient, and how much time does the home nurse spend in keeping him com- fortable?
 ISN'T so SIMPLE
 It is true that comfort depends on simple procedures such as changing a patients pillow, or turning him over in bed. But un- less the nome nurse knows how to do these skilfully, so that the pa tient does not over exert himself, or fall out of bed in the progress, these simple procedures may have serious consequences.
 It sounds easy to say the patient must be well fed. But that means him with three meals a day. Ii great deal more than providing good nutrition is important i'll health, how much more important it is for the person who is sick and whose injured or diseased body must be provided with rebuilding material? The home nurse must not only see that he gets food, but must see that he gets thet right kind and the right amount of food. And that may become quite complicated!

during wear and crease-resistance to fur fibers, have as much as 20 per cent mink, muskrat or silver fox woven into a blend of rayon and wool yarn.
 Enough of this exciting new yarn which is expected to crash the millinery, shoe and upholstery fields as soon as production can be ex- parded- has been woven to make roc dresses bearing labels of top flight designers. At the right you see one of the seasons most popular models with shirred shoulder detail and a mink-tailed belt, but photo graphy doesn't do justice to the fur toned sheen of the mink and musk rat which fleck the pastel blue or rose color of this dress.
 Also to be featured in stores from coast to coast, as soon as enough fabric has been woven to produce full lines, is knitwear glinting with silver fox.

''Nrs. Parkington", the new Metro Goldwyn-Mayer picture which Is now playing at the Loew Poli The ater, is in the fine tradition of all the previous Greer Garson-Walter Pidgeon productions this company has given us: Blossoms In The Dust, Mrs. Miniver" and Madame Curie."
 These two, and an outstanding supporting cast, bring the best-selling Louis Bromfield novel to cenematic life with zest and great vigor. As the dynamic Mrs. Parkington, Miss Carson makes a complete change from the studios and conservative women she played in these previous successes. In Mrs. Parkington" she is dashing and dominating, world ly woman with the wrold at her feet.
 Pidgeon, in this film, portrays a reckless, ambitious and fiamboyant man, far cry from his MT. Miniver or Pierre Curie. Together, they prove-if further proof were needed that they are at once the greatest, most versatile film starring team in many years.
 The story takes us from 1872, when Susie Graham (Miss Garson) daughter of boarding house keeper in Leaping Rock, Nevl, mar ries Major Augustus Parkington (Pidgeon). They open home in New York and there begins the saga of the Parkingtons, of the huthleSs Majors maneuvers, of the way they affect Susie's life and hopes and her childrens.
 The story takes us into the late 1930's, with MT. Parkington still the family's dominant character. An outstanding supporting cast, headed by Edward Arnold, Agnes Moore head and Cecil Kellaway, and inc cluding Gladys Cooper, Tom Drake, Frances Rafferty and Peter Law ford, among others, is seen in SUD- port of the stars.
 You will not want to miss 'Mrs Parkington," picture which is bound to enthrall you every minute of the time.
