Futures prices of corn, butter and eggs have been skyrocketing to new highs. Corn reached and passed the S2-a-bushel mark a few days ago for the first time in the 99-years' history of the Chica- go board of trade. If there was futures market on meat, meat rrices would De out ot s.ght, too. They very likely will be anyway, by winter.

Dwindling Natural Resources

REPORT which the Geological Survey and the Bureau of Mines have submitted to a special Senate subcommittee demonstrates that the natural resources in United States have been seriously depleted in particulars The United States partly dependent upon foreign for it's needs in arsenic bismuth cadmium, copper, lead, mercury, tantalum, tungsten and zinc. It is completely dependent virtually so upon fore for what it needs in chrome erro grade manganese nickel, tin, platinum industrial da- monds, quartz crystals and asbestos of spinning quality The report adds that there is little prospect that expo- ration in the United States will develop important new of antmony, vanadium high-grade bauxte and mica
 With respect to other mineral resources the report says that hghgrade and easily accessible deposits have been seriously depleted that the United States will have to depend upon technques of exploitation of leaner ores at greater depths.
 The nations natural resources have been spent with unstntng hand in two great wars but the report is not all of character to shadow the future with gloom This country is well supplied with coal it is reasonably we'll off, with respect to iron ore and has deposits of pot aSh phosphate rock and nitrateS that unlimited in quantity Proved oil reserves not only high but natural gas coal shae and oil sands provide an invita- tion for steady improvement of to make these resources available for development of oil products
 Classification of nations as have and "have not" is not easy it and is likely to be even more difficult in the future but the report stands warn ing that the United States is now and has not been for time land of limtless resources sufficient unto itself

billion dollars, he estimated inter est requirements at billions year. Now the debt is down around 267 billions and the p~eSident is talking about cutting it more, but he still wants billions year for interest. How come? Are interest rates going up, or does the Presi- dent really have in mind increas- ing the debt?
 Moscow's policy seems to be to never agree with anybody on any- .Nir-. Tact went the Russians tied unsuccessfully to block inn mediate United Nations considera- tion of selection of a governor for Trieste. The Soviet excuse was that this matter should not be taken up until the Italian peace treaty has been ratified by all the Big Four powers, and Russia has not yet ratified if. What the Tri- este agreement, to which Russia is a party, provides is that the governor shall take office "at the earliest possible ronent" ofter the Italian treaty becomes effec- +'va. That warrants speedy selec- ton of the Trieste governor so he can be ready to take over. There is no excuse for Russian stalling on ratification of the Italian -~oa+v. ratification is mere for mality.
 Protest strikes against final en- actment of the Taft-Hartley bill are natural aftermath of the bit ter campaign of misrepresentation waged by top labor leaders against this measure. Many workers are deluded into believing this is slave bill' as union propagan- dists told them. Truman's veto ard his attempt to bring public pressure to bear on the Senate to rrevent it from overriding his de- c'Sion added to the bitterness and misunderstanding.
 Hot heads will cool off. Whether union leaders like it or not, the Taft-Hartley bill now is the law of the land. Its provisions can be challenged in the courts. Oppon- ents of the bill have the right to campaign in an orderly way for revision or repeal. But nothing is to be gained by any policy of de- fiance. Protest strikes merely an tagonize the public, injure the na~ticipsnts. and confirm public opinion in the conclusion that or 9anized labor must be regulated as management has been regulated fo- years.
 Any doubt as to the constitu- tionality of at least one provision of the now labor law was removed by United States supreme court decision which was handed down while the Senate was voting to override the Presidential veto. that is the section prohibiting "featherbedding" practices. It de- fines as unfair labor practice any attempt by union to compel an employer to pay for services which are not performed or not to be performed.

Therefore. we request that the
City Commission repeal Section

sion Series, Immediately and en-
act a new ordinance which will
read: Minimum fine of $1,000

Mansfield.
"If I'd known you were going
to print my silly little letter in
America LoueS, I'd have writ
ten something really worthwhile.
That was just something l dashed
off without even thinking. wasn't
it, Jack?"
"Yes, DEAR" agreed Ellen's
dutiful husband.
1t was quite cleaS to everyone
that Jack Mansfield was a yes
man, from his patent leather hair
down to the soles of his highly
polished shoes. No man with any
spirit, Susan decided, would have
worn that violently purple tie. 1t
followed the identical color and
pattern Of his wife's dress and,
like the dress. was obviously
Mama-made.
There was the sound Of COM
motion outside, and the door was
flung open by perspiring but OBJ
viously highly pleased John Bates.
Right this way. fellow" he
called to someone behind him.
"Pll shoot you as you 60 through
the door. Gee. that's sweet pose!
Couldn't be any better if I'd ar
ranged it myself"
He stepped aside and tall
blond young man stood framed
for moment in the doorway. The
young mans eyes were fastened
adoringly on the laughing face
of slim, dark-haired girl whom
he was carrying over the threshold
in the traditional manner of low
| erS everywhere. There was the
| click of camera shutter, denot-
ing that picture had been made.
and John Bates voice called:
"Okay. folks. Thanks lot. You
can come down out of the clouds
| noW-or can you?"
Apparently the young lovers
| were not yet ready to come down
out of the clouds. 1t was as though
they were in a world inhabited
by only two people-themselves.
The young man bent over and
kissed an errant curl that had
fallen over the girls forehead and
whispered something evidently
| intended for her ears alone. Then,
as if suddenly aware of an audi
ence, he released her very gently
and his face turned a deep Grim
son.
Sorry" he said to Susan. who
had stepped forward to greet
them. 1--WE didn't realize we had
an audience, did we. Anne" He
grinned. still a little abashed, and
put an arm around the girl.

She laughed. II don't suppose it
would have made any difference.
The door was open," she explained
to Susan, "and he thought it would
be fun to carry me over the
threshold. Sort of silly of us,
wasn't it? But we're always doing
silly things like that--George and
I. It's because we're - we're"
She hesitated, and Susan finished
for her:
Because you're in love. And
it's not at all silly. Anne Payton.
/ think it's wonderful"
1T WAS all Susan could do to
keep from embracing the at
tractive newcomers, George and
Anne Peyton of Springfield. Mas
Sachusetts. the last of the win
ming contestants. In a way, they
vindicated her belief in the
beauty of love as expressed
through her columns.
AS much as she hated to adj
NIT it. the other guests were sad
ly disappointing. Certainly they
were anything but the romantic
figures she had pictured them to
be. There was nothing glamorous
about the romance of the ANA
zonian Bella Gaines and her un-
dersized Frank. They were just
a couple of acknowledgements. now
a little disgruntled over the whole
thing. Deprived of their loneli-
ness, they had nothing to belly
ache about. Therefore, they would
spend the rest of their lives vent
ing their spleen on each other.
AS for the Howard Cranstons-
it was impossible even to think
of that couple in terms of ro-
nance.
The Mansfelds, as marital
team. did nothing to enhance the
glory Of love or the institution of
marriage, except perhaps to serve
as a counter-irritant.
AS a group. they gave Susan a
vague feeling that she'd been
wasting her time and her talents
on thanklesS, if not altogether
hopeless, task.
But George and Anne Peyton-
bless them!-gave her new faith
in the rightness of things. They
made every line of copy she's
written seem worth while. 1t was
obvious that they were deeply in
love and almost deliriously happy.
Their marriage had been well
worth saving.
"Only don't let it throw you,
my friend" Susan admoniShed
herself. Don't pat yourself on
the back and take all the credit
There's a marriage that would
have worked out anyway-never
mind your two cents worth of ad-
vice."

THEY had just finished lunch
= when the ]. Howard Cranstons
Of Lincoln, Nebraska arrived. Mr..
Cranston. big man with a BOOM
ing voice and unfurrowed face,
was a salesman by profession. He
lost no time in saying so.
81 can sell baby carriages to
bachelors" he announced in a
voice that defied anyone to deny
it. The guffaw that accompanied
this supposedly witty remark
brought out the familiar goose
pimples on Susar's arms.
$50 this" he said, placing a
heavy hand on her shoulder. "is
the lady who said / talked too
much. Wrote two whole pages in
a magazine telling me off. Said l
should stop talking and give the
little woman"-he nodded in the
direction of his wife-"a chance
to think. Made a swell joke to
pass on to the trade. Better than
the one about the farmers daugh-
ter. 1t hits 'em right between the
eyes-sells bill of goods every
time. l should give you a COM
mission, little lady. So l talked
too much, did II"
"Thank you, Mr.. Cranston. I'm
so glad I could help you salvage
your marriage" That should put
him back in his place. she thought.
She moved away from the
bombastic man and put an arm
around the little gray woman who
was his wife. In contrast to her
husbands youthful appearance.
Mrs. CranSton looked old and
desperately tired. Her hair was
quite gray and her modest gray
suit seemed to accentuate her re-
semblance to a hunted rabbit.
Susan had a vague feeling that
she had made a CHASTITY mistake
in salvaging this particular mar
riage. She should have let J.
Howard CranSton talk himself in
to the divorce court and tell his
hateful Jokes to the Judge. She
felt her heart go out to the
small woman who had grown old
smoothing her husbands pathway
so that he could remain young
and sell baby carriages to bache-
lors by means of ridiculous tests.
She was glad when the sound of
a taxi outside proclaimed the ar
rival of other guests.
The newcomers. who introduced
themselves as Ellen and Jack
Mansfield, were remarkable only
for their complacent acceptance of
their good fortune.
81 knew I'd win," said Ellen.

Gelatin is back on the
shelves again. Here's
some cool eating for
hot-weather dinners ..

"7ELCoME back the sparkling
" molds of the gelatin clan all
light as spindrift, refreshing as the
cool kiss of a wave. Gelatin dishes
may turn up again at any point in
the meal. Jellied consomme for the
cool beginning, jellied meat loaf as
a holiday cold course, nodded fruit
salad to coax the heat-weary,
creamy whip for the light touch"
ending.
Gelatin supplies increase steadily,
now almost back to their -prewar re-
cords - still not enough. Demand
has gone kiting, makers of the fla
vored gelatins and gelatin desserts
increase production in ratio with the
increase in sugar.
Have you heard the news? A
speed-up mixing method has been
devised by one of the gelatin COM
panies so that all the ingredients can
be combined at one time in one
saucepan. Heat is applied for two to
three minutes until the gelatin dis
solves. Then it's ready to mold.
One of the best ways to use this
quick-method gelatin is with the
fruit juices, canned, fresh or frozen,
combiningw with sugar. Add the sweet
ening, ,ofcourse, to suit your own taste.
Jsllisd Grapefruit Juice
envelope unflavored quick
method gelatin
2 to 3 tablespoons sugar
2 cups canned grapefruit juice
Combine gelatin and sugar in
saucepan. Add grapefruit juice and
heat over medium fame, stirring
constantly. until gelatin is dissolved
- about two or three minutes. Pour
into molds. Chill until firm. Unmold.

PHIL PALMER BEATS.
CHESTER SLIDER
BY }. A. (Jack) JOHNSON

The boxing card at the Civic
Arena, sponsored by the Seattle
Boxing Club, Inc, again showed
Phil Palmer of Vancouver, B. C.
proving that he is without ques-
ton the best welterweight to be
shown in Seattle for a long time.
Phil beat Chester Slider. an Oak
land Negro welterweight in his
usual awkwardly clever manner
which has time and again proved
too much for the local welters TO
fathom. Chester though game and
tough was down for no counts
four times and was quite mussed
up at the finish.
Hal Holloway, white of Mon
tana again decisioned Duke Harris.
Negro of Seattle. Duke Is fairly
clever but to win fights be will
have to stop running and get in
close enough to land some solid
blows on his opponents.
Buford Ransom KO'd Paul Ken
nedy of Longyiew in three rounds
and if Buford can take it like
he can dish it out we predict that
he will go far in the prize ring.
Eddie Cotton won surprise Ko.
