general chairman Of the show, at a

MIR. Randolph, now assistant to
the president of Capital Airlines
was q member of the House District
Committee for ID years, serving
the last seven years as chairman.
During his leadership of the COM
nittee he introduced and obtained

scum In Washington.
In discussing the value OF model
air contests such as that to be held
here next July, MIR. Randolph said:
Our youth, both boys and girls,
need the continuing stimulation of

create genuine progress in aero
nautics which eventually will mean
q greater development for America. !"
Next months show, which will

the country, will be limited to 500

Proctor Weighing Pleas
OF Germans 10 Stay in u. s

A Government motion to dismiss
injunction petitions which seek to
prevent Attorney General Clark
from deporting more than 125 Ger
man nationals was taken under ad-
visement yesterday by Justice James
M. Proctor OF District Court.
The petitioners are interned at
Ellis Island, N. Y, and Crystal City,
Tex.
The motion to dismiss was argued
In behalf Of the Government by AS
sistant United States Attorney
Daniel B. Maher.
The Government contends the
court does not have power to review
the removal proceedings because the
plaintiffs are enemy aliens. It is un-
der authority OF the Enemy Alien
Act that the nationals are to be de-
ported, 1t was said.
In the petitions, fled in behalf
OF the plaintiffs by Attorney James
J. Laughlin, 1t was contended that
st no time had the plaintiffs at
tempted to interfere with the war
effort. 1t was claimed, in turn, that
1t would be ttinhuman" to return the
plaintiffs to Germany and to the
Russian zone Of occupation.

LETTERS FROM OUR
AFRICAN MISSIONARIES
Continued from Page u

hours. The other taxi had
flat, so we stopped and fixed
it. Near Kisumu the trees are
rather far apart, but as we
neared Bob's station they get
thicker, high Eucalyptus trees,
some bamboo, coffee trees,
palm and banana trees, tall
grass and vines.
While we were stopping to
repair the tire natives came
and looked. Most of them in
this section wear dresses, shirts
and pants. This area is very
heavily populated and there
are quite a few missionaries.
The little children of course
don't wear any clothes and
have bloated stomachs, be-
cause they eat one meal day
and that is of corn and they
eat so much it puffs out their
stomachs.
Native huts are quite dark
inside and most live in terrible
sin and filth. There are still
many thousands to be reach
ed for Christ in this area.
The weather here is very
cool at night. [ have to use
three blankets and a sheet, be-
cause [ temporarily sleep on
an enclosure on the porch.
Don't mind, praise the Lord I
have a clean warm bed. The
day is rather cool in the house
and outside it is fairly warm.
This is the winter season and
it doesn't get much warmer in
summer (Nov., Dec. and JAM.
The weather is changing, it
used to rain for about an hour
or two in the afternoon and
quit, but now it stays cloudy
all afternoon and some of the
night.
Around here are leopard,
pythOns, balloons and monkeys
but [ have not seen any of
these yet.
There are a lot of Indians
here from India. They do all
heavy work around and some
are running a lumber mill
down by creek near our STA
ton. Their trucks are running
the only road to our place and
making mud tracks of the
road.
We had an Indian come in
to the meeting today, but he
walked out early.
We have a small church with
several other rooms added for
classrooms and dormitories,
but no one sleeps in them. Our
meeting started about $3.50
with Bible School, not many
kids.
You feel so sorry for those
little half naked, dirty chill
dren Oord help us to help
them and bring them to Him).
All sang and clap hands as our
native teachers and pastors
sing.
They use our hymns, but
their own words, as you know,
and the only way we can sing
is to sing in English or read
KisWabite out of the book.
The church has dirt floor,
grass roof wood benches, and
white covered mud walls.

FLUSH u KIDNEYS
THIS 0OcTOR,S WAY

. Backache, loss of the old pep, getting up
nights, and headache are often caused by
nothing more than improper kidney ac-
ton due to excess acid in the urine. The
kidneys are one of Natures ways of re-
moving impurities from the blood. And
when these impurities back up, trouble
may start.
So if you have these troubles. give your
kidneys and bladder a good flushing out
by taking DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root. It
works on the kidneys to flush them out
80. increasing the flow of urine to help re-
iieve that excess acidity and ease that
burning sensation when you pass water
. . . helps that bladder irritation that
makes you get up nights.
Made of Is herbs. roots, vegetables, and
balsams, Swamp-Root is absolutely nom
habit forming. Millions have taken'it for
3 generations . often with wonderful
results. Caution: take as directed.
For free trial supply, send to Dept. Y,

This decline in buying power
the bureau commented, "makes il
increasingly difficult for total bust

1t said early downward adjust
ments in prices could improve the
outlook by causing the ''real in

ers to rise to a level consistent
with continued high business &C
tivity. The report added, however,
that such flexibility in the price
structure has rarely been observ.

year is likely to increase somewhat

RECESSION SEEN
LATE this YEAR
Bureau OF Agricultural
Economics Says Food
Prices Will Drop

WASHINGTON, March 6. .-W.P)
= The Bureau of Agricultural eco
nomics said today forces now al
work seem to indicate a business
recession late in 1947 and a down
turn IN prices, particularly in foods.
1t said wholesale food prices -
which In recent weeks climbed to
a record level - may decline from
Is to 20 per cent by the end of the
year. Farm prices could drop &c
to Is per cent, it added, if the
business downturn should come al
the time when farm marketings
are heavy.
The bureau emphasized, however.
that timely downward. adjust
ments' in prices could improve
the outlook.
Last fall the bureau said a de-
cline in business and industrial ac-
tivity was possible late this year.
Today's forecast gave, for the first
time, an estimate of the degree of
Cne prospective setback.
The major force which the bureau
said is operating to bring on a re-
cession is a declining volume of
purchasing power in the hands of
wage earners. Taking into account
the steady rise in the cost of liv-
ing, the bureau said the real in
come" chat is purchasing power)
of salary and wage earners has
been declining since VI Day.
Record Levels
Production and sales of goods
have been held at record dollar
levels since the end of the war, ap-
parently by spending of wartime
savings and by installment credit.
The bureau said that there are
signs that purchasing power deriv-
ed from these supplementary
sources is declining. Many persons
