Relief for Aliens.
ANTA MONICA, CALIF.—-If
J an American were depend-
ent on public charity in any
continental country, he'd be out
of luck and out of that country,
too, as quickly as they could
him out.
If, in addition, he openly attacked
the government of that country, he'd
still be out of luck
because he'd be in
jail.
Hundreds of thou-
sands of aliens are
on relief here. Many
of them slipped
across the borders
through leaks in our
immigration laws—
and brought their
folks with them, al-
so to be cared for
at the taxpayers’
expense, Some are
avowed enemies of our form
government. :
Steps to oust such parasites are
balked on the ground that to do so
would work hardships on their fam-
ilies. You could say the same thing
for bedbugs.
We're starting to register these
non-residents. But it's to be a "‘vol-
untary’’ registration, not compul-
sory. Any person in the audience,
besides Madame Perkins, who be-
lieves the undesirables will come
a-running to list themselves, and
risk deportation thereby, kindly
raise the right hand.

Nominating Barkley,
(CANVASSES show Senate Leader
’ Alben Barkley gaining as a pos-
sible Democratic nominee in 1040.
It's high time we had somebody
from Paducah for President. For
e@ hundred and fifty-odd years this
republic has fooled along without
one of our local boys sitting up
there in the White House, writing
messages to congress condemning
the use of sugar in cornbread and
proclaiming that, if any traitor
dares to pull down fried catfish,
shoot him on the spot.
With Alben on the job, we'll not
only have homegrown statesmanship
in job lots, but silver-throated ora-
tory, which, by comparison, would
make Patrick Henry seem like a
tongue-tied man suffering from
chapped lips. For Al can talk an

Landon Calls on G.O.P.
LF M. LANDON came to the
17,000,000 Americans who voted for
him in the last election, and es-
pecially to the Re-
publican party as a
whole. He said he
had called this ‘‘ra-

gest ways and

demanding increased power.
“What he really needs is less pow-
er,” Mr. Landon asserted, “a posi-
tion that will force him to take the
advice and counsel of other men
of both parties—men whose hearts
also are in the right place, but men
who have had more experience and
who know more about the practical
application of government than he
does.”
It is up to the Republicans, he
said, to curb Mr. Roosevelt in his
demands. He also discussed the
war talk prevalent after the Presi-
dent's Chicago speech and said:
“We are faced with a situation
where he may make a mistake that
would indeed be tragic, that might
lead to war. Close observers have
increasing doubt if he thought his
recent declaration through to
logical conclusion.”
In conclusion Mr. Landon said:
“We have had a New Deal. Now

ure the ability and the accomplish-
ments, as well as the good inten-
tions, of public officials.

Roosevelt warned that crop

However, Secretary of Agriculture
Wallace subsequently told a press
conference a government loan on
this year’s large corn crop “should
be exceedingly desirable.” He de-
clined to say what loan rate he fa-
vored, but conceded that a corn loan
of about 46 cents a bushel would be
comparable to the government's 0
cents a pound loan on this year's
cotton crop.

Credit System Praised
RESID ROOSEVELT, speak-
ing at the opening of the new
Federal Reserve building in Wash-
ington, gave full praise to the fed-
eral reserve system as a most im-
portant part of the government's
plans for economic stability and se-
curity. He said disastrous depres-
sions and booms could be avoided
only by the development of the
credit and monetary machinery of
the nation.
That machinery, he continued,
“must be steadily perfected and co-
ordinated with all other instruments
of government to promote the most
productive utilization of our human
and material resources. Only in
that way can we hope to achieve
and maintain an enduring prosper-

Only in that way can our economic

the jittery condition of the stock
markets, but before delivering his
address he had seen Secretary of

New Budget Figures
P RESIDENT ROOSEVELT found
his estimate of $418,000,000 as the
probable deficit for 1038 fiscal year
was much too low. So he gave out
new budget figures putting the prob-
able deficit at nearly 700 millions.
And it admittedly will be much
greater unless the executive and
congress achieve very considerable

Felix Warburg Dies
ELIX M. WARBURG of New
York, one of the country's fore-
most financiers and philanthropists,
died at his home at the age of sixty-
seven. He was senior partner of
Kuhn, Loeb & Co., international
bankers. Between 1920 and 1930 he
gave at least ten million dollars to
various philanthropies, and for
years he was active in the efforts to
aid the Jews in Palestine and those
driven from Germany by the Nazis.

"T HERE is an easy way to keep

few readers have asked me how it
can be done, and I'm sure many
more of you will be interested.
Here's how:
Have a spray made of small
pipe, connected with the cold wa-
ter system installed in the ashpit
of the furnace. Only a short length
of pipe will be needed. In it have
small holes drilled and cap the
free end.
Just before shaking the grates,
turn on the spray. It will throw
a fine mist over the whole ashpit,
wetting down the ashes as they
drop through the grate openings
and settling the dust immediately.
