I am going to quote chapter and
verse from the record of the 81st
congress to document my charge that
ADA liberals and Reuther- Carey
Murray type labor leaders are liberal
fronts for the fascist movement in
America.
Disguised by broken promises, the
people are more and more leaving
the two old parties. The job the
qseudo-liberals are doing for reac-
ton is to try and drive wedge be-
tween the disillusioned masses and
the Progressive Party. Between now
and 1850 they may project new
political party for this purpose.
On one issue after another, the
compromising liberals" in the con-
gress played a role which ensured
defeat of the whole program for
which the people voted.
On the question of changing SEN
ate filibuster rules, vital in the civil
rights issue, talk came from Lucas,
the President. 1t came
from Humphrey Cd, Mimi and
Douglas Cd, ILL.,. They said we
could not get anything better.
The result was something worse
instead of 2s of thoes present being
able to stop a filibuster, now it re-
quires a constitutional 25, or "a
votes. The Phil Murrays were will
ing to compromise on civil rights pro-
vided they could get a deal on Taft
Hartley, instead of fighting without
of both.
Sitting Contest
When | tried to recommit various
bills by offering an
that no discrimination be
used in spending the money, Repub- |
ican and Democratic leadership |
United not only to defeat my motions |
out to prevent a record vote.
l have seen the so-called liberals |
ike Helen Douglas and Chef Holt
field and all these people remain sit
ing when | made a request for
'ecord vote. Never in these fights
'or civil rights amendments have I
lad support from these so-called lib
erals who are now trying to take
nto their camp the masses of the
people.
The fight on civil rights has been
complete sellout, double dealing,
Louble crossing. From the Republi-
ans we expected that. From Tru- I
nan and his crowd the masses of the
eople did not expect it, but we did. s
'ut the main sellout has come from =;
he leaders of labor, the Murrays and {
'areys.

TAx-ExEMPT STATUS
CLARIFIED
North Dakota Wool Grower


Eugene L. Hensel of Columbus, O.,
and member of the legal and tax
committee of the National Council,
clarified the partial tax exempt stat
us of farmer co-operatives recently
but compared a farmer cooperative
with the Railway Express Agency,
one Of the largest co-operatives in
the nation. Mr.. Hensel pointed out
that all farm co-operatives had been
formed for identically the same pur-
pose-to enhance and increase the
profit of the farmer as an individ-
ual industrialist" He also compar-
ed farmer co-operatives with Asso-
ciated Merchandising Corp, coop
erative owned and controlled by 21
department stores over the country.
Declaring that NTEA's only quar-
rel with co-operatives is regarding
the taxation of patronage refunds,
he raised the question of industry's
objection to congressional attempt
to tax, as income to a corporation,
trade discounts allowed to customers.
"Of course, industry would object"
he said, adding that ever since it's
enactment of income tax laws, trade
discounts have been consistently
as exclusions from net
taxable income for the reason that
they are either costs of doing bust
ness or a reduction of the sale price.
GAS many courts have pointed out"
he said, "the patronage refund is
more or less than trade
discount applied to a farmer cooper
alive"

''The pay of nurses has been dou-
bled," DR.. Wendeyer said.
"Isn't there a lack of enterprise
and initiative on the part of doctors
If they have a stipulated income
from each patient, paid by the gov
eminent, why should they seek to
give improved service or seek out
better ways?"
"Dr. Skinner" said Sir Stanford
in response to these questions, 1--WE
are finding that the standard of care
the doctor gives is as good as under
the private enterprise method. A
man is inherently honest and
seeker of better ways toward health,
or he isn't. That applies to differ
emit doctors in either type of service.
81 would suggest" Sir Stanford
continued, that the American doc
tor welcome any plan of medical
service to all, projected in America.
Let the doctor go into it and give the
leadership. You have a great and
rich country, fine doctors, and when
the groundswell of national med
ical service starts, the opportunity is
for the doctors more than for the
politicians, in the final ANALYSIS.
Urges Plan In u. S.
eve assume that the people trust
competent doctors, under a national
service or otherwise, and are
finding that the doctor more than
the politician is the determining fac
tor in the actual control of social
lied medicine. So l say to you and
other American doctors-when a ma
tional health service is wanted, go
into it as leaders and planners of a
enterprise desired by
the maj ority of the people"

DR.. Skinner said the views of Sir
Stanford astonished him, so differ
mt were they from the views the
london surgeon had expressed be-

Doctor Amazed At Report On England's
Healt' ZPlan

The interview didn't go the way
the Observation-Disclosures had expected.
The interviewer was DR.. Edward
H. Skinner of Kansas City, Mo-, who
is editor of the Kansas City South
west Clinical Society's bulletin and
also a leader in the National Phys
ician's Committee, which is vigorous
ly opposing national health insur-
ance.
All set to get some good grist for
this committees mill, DR.. Skinner
interviewed at conference of the
American Cancer Society at Mem
phis, Tenn, two doctors from Eng
land, where national health insur-
ance has been in operation a little
less than year. The men were Sir
Stanford Cade and DR.. Brian w.
Windeyer. This is how the inter
view went, as reported by Conwell
Carlson in the Kansas City Star:
"What is the effect on the income
and social status of English doc
tors?"
Fine" said Sir Stanford.
"Fine?" DR.. Skinner said, as if his
ears heard wrong.
"Fine," repeated Sir Stanford,
and he leaned forward. "More pa
tents, more income"
This is not what Sir Stanford had
predicted of the health scheme he
had opposed so vigorously during Dr.

"But the cost, Sir Stanford, the
cost" said the Kansas Citian, hitch
ing up his chair, while DR.. Joseph L. !
Farrow of New York, his son-in-law, /
watched.
Sir Stanford shrugged.
Shrugs at the Cost
"The cost" he said. "What did
the atomic bomb cost? What did
the last war cost? Destruction costs
billions, so why not some billions

ple."
DIR. Windeyer nodded at this and
said the present government of Eng
land was not quaking at the health
service cost, and was assuming the
service would go on decade after !,

sentative party governments.

During the summer and autumn

many dictionary recommendations are
petrified; that is to say. they are not
in accordance with today's good
usage. Let's look at few:
Diphtheria. The digraph "ph" is
found in words from the Greek or
in words coined in imitation OF
Greek words in which phi occurs.
The digraph "ph" is pronounced like
the consonant "f,' except:
/. In words like phthalein, phthi-
sic "ph" usually is silent, as: THAI
cen, TIZZ-ik.
2. In diphtheria, diphthong, naph-
tina, and triphthong, PHI is custom
arily pronounced "p," as: dip
THEAR-ree-uh, DIP -thawng, NAP
thuh, TRIP-thawng.
1t is only of late that dictionaries
have recognized the 'p" pronuncia-
ton as good American usage, the
older dictionaries listing only the

as, f-THEAR-ee-uh, etc. But the

This column recommends the 'p''

wears a ring near the upper part
of the stem. This soon dries and
futters away.
Few persons realize that this fan
tastic mushroom is edible. 1t Is
cooked as one does gilled mush-
rooms. Because of its ragged dull
brown coat and scaly cap 1t is not
considered fit for food.
This mushroom tStrobllomyces
strobilaceus) is plentiful during the
summer and autumn. 1t is usually
found in groups on the ground IN
wooded areas. Because OF its soft
texture it soon decays and maggots
crowd each other for their share.
One must select only fresh, souno
specimens for eating. And since the
nine cone is so different from any
other mushroom, it is not easily
confused with any other fungus.
MANY mushrooms are poisonous, and

eat one of these plants picked in its

The Lead Directing Convention.

The Lead Directing Convention.
Among the modern conventions
surely one of the most fascinating
is the preference signal en-
ployed by the defense. 1t is a
sensitive device which, if properly
handled. may be an outstanding
point-saver, but when subjected to
the slightest abuse is apt to test
the endurance of even the most
beautiful partnership.
The convention provides that the
play of an unusually high card, un-
der circumstances which make II
clear that the card is not intended
as a come-on signal, requests part
ner to lead the higher ranking OF
the two plain suits. "A plain sult
is one other than trump This is
calculated to take the guess out
of many cases in which there would
be no clearly defined course Of
action.
Perhaps the less said about the
bidding the better. North's leap to
four hearts, East's failure to raise
partner and South's jump to a siam
are hardly models of perfection IN
the art of bidding. Vests nom
Vulnerable overcall was calculated TO
lay the foundation for sacrflce DID
against a probable adverse game.
North had a raise to two hearts as
q free bid. If partner is unable to
art he need have no Qualms about
missing game. East's failure to act
indicates that he haswsome private
information on West that mas not
yet been divulged to us.

East elected to follow with the JACK,

tion. continued with spade. This

think the situation itself should
have made it clear that East could
hardly desire a spade continuation
Obviously the jack was not single
ton, and obviously, too, there could
be no advantage in driving out an
entry, since the trumps themselves
would provide plenty OF entries
Furthermore, if East for reasons best
known to himself was anxious for
spade continuation he could make
the normal come-on signal by play
ing the eight of spades.
West should, therefore, have con.
cluded that his partner was sendins
a message in code. The unusually
high spade should have been taker
to read: Partner. please lead thu
higher of the two remaining suits.
It would not have been enough fol
East to leave his partner to hi
own devices. After all, there was M
way for West to decide whether th'
shift should be to club or
diamond.
