EDITORIAL = THAT'S UNGRATEFUL The CWA workers in some of the larger places are showing their ap- preciation to the government for be- ing kind to them? Many have gone on a strike because of a reduc- tion in wages. They won't stand for being cut from 50 to 40 cents an hour —no sir. A lot of them who never earned that much, must be paid that or nothing. Evidently they are figuring that the sooner the CWA money is ex- hausted, the sooner they can quit work and go back on the Welfare again. ‘ THE INADEQUACY OF GOLD The growing agitation for moneti- zation of silver develops from the fact that the world’s supply of gold has proven itself insufficient to carry on the increasingly complex opera- tions of international commerce. All the monetary gold in the world is not sufficient to pay off the foreign gold bonds held by the people of the United States, and the debts owed to the American government by other nations. The world’s monetary gold, outside of that held by France and the Uni- ted States (which two countries con- trol $7,000,000,000 of a world total of 111,000,000,000), if divided among the peoples of all other countries, would amount to but $2.30 per capita. The silver movement is definitely on the rise. And among its most zealous advocates are thousands of American business men who believe that a fixed ratio between the values of the two metals is essential to world recovery and stability. FARM INCOME ON THE RISE Farm income in 1933 was $1,240,- 000,000 greater than in 1932—a jump - of 24 per cent. Tne chief reasons for this, accord- ing to the Department of Agriculture press service, were increased prices for crops, and benefit and rental pay- ments by the Agriculutral Adjust- ment Administration. And it should likewise be remembered that the farmer's great allies in raising and stabilizing prices, and in farming governmental farm legislation, were the farm cooperatives. The co-ops entered 1933 after one of the worst years in agricultural history—a year in which farm in- come was at the bottom. They went forward courageously and undismay- ed. They fought the farmer’s battles with the middleman—they brought his point of view before the public and won its sympathy—they conferr- ed with governmental officials on all manner of matters directly and in- “directly affecting. agriculture. They were a steadying factor when the farm strikes broke out, and they stood solidly on the side of law and order and reasoned action as distinct from violence. The cooperatives deserve n world of credit. They did much in 1933. And now, with the new year well started, they are going on to great- er, more permanent achievements. Noirs Sims 4 RE in PRD ado THE GOLDEN EGGS “The taxpayer, let it never be for- gotten, is the mainstay of govern- ment,” says the Detroit Times. “He is as a rule, the man of steady in- dustry and frugality, who labors early and late—producing, saving, ing and supporting.... Pe is a prop and reliance. Without him....recovery is an idle dream and the great projects of gov- ernment are fordoomed to failure.” This essential figure, the taxpayer, has few vocal defenders. Public offi- cials pile steadily increasing burdens on him. They take a large part of his income and often his savings— both through taxation and through tax-exempt governmental projects which compete with his private en- deavors. You don’t have to pay direct taxes to be a taxpayer. You may never pay an income tax or a property tax —but a substantial percentage of your earnings is taken for taxes nev- ertheless. The grocer who sells you food, the factory that produces it and the railroad which transports it, are heavily taxed—and the tax they pay is added to the cost of everything ou buy. ves one of us is a taxnaver.

WNU Service TANDING beside the desk of Tom Wardell, managing editor of the Morning Breeze, Polly Devitt was al- most tempted to draw her light coat closer about her, so cold was the gaze of the clever young executive. Instead she continued to look steadily at him, her large brown eyes as sincere as they were beautiful. “I don’t want to be a society repor- ter, Mr. Wardell,” she said with a drawl that, reminding one of a lazy southern stream rolling through Ken- tucky blue grass, added infinitely to the charm of her low, throaty voice. “I've been a general assignment re- porter for two years, and I want to continue to be one. I'm twenty-three vears old and hell-bent to get some- where, and I can’t get there by being a society reporter.” “I'm sorry, Miss Devitt,” Wardell said curtly, “but as I've just sald, we have no place here for you. I don’t hire women reporters. I don't like them.” With which remark he lowered his eyes to some copy which lay on his desk. So far as he was concerned the interview was over. Not so with Polly. “I don't think it is fair of you to let a personal prejudice against women enter into business.” Ordinarily Wardell would have ignored a remark like that, but some- how Polly's tone caused him to look up at her again. Then he said: “There are very few good women re- porters, and those that are good get married and quit their jobs.” “How do you know, If you've never hired any?’ flashed Polly. The young managing editor was about to answer her again when Ted Lowry, the city editor, called: “Hey, Tom, where's Towner? There's been an accident at Market and Broad streets, and I haven't got anybody here to send out.” “Towner's out of town,” snapped Wardell. “Get Binney on the phone, and tell him to go over.” “T can’t,” said the city editor. at the fire up in the North End.” Polly had been listening avidly to the conversation. Turning quickly to the managing editor, she said: “Let me cover this accident. It'll give you an opportunity to learn first hand whether women are good report- ers.” Wardell looked at her for a second, “He's and then, smiling for the first time since Polly had been In the office, said: “Okay. lady, go to it. Let's see what you can do.” * . When Polly returned with the de- tails of the accident she summarized the story for the managing editor, and asked: “How much do you want?’ “About a half column.” Then, wink- ing at the city editor, he added: “And than they did year before (which proves that the soup wasn’t so thin last year.) The »eople of the United States nay not be cake eaters, but they are candy eaters.

Then overnight, as it were, we are witnes- sing revolutionary railroad changes. The Union Pacific, long a poineer- ing railroad in opening up new ter- ritories and knitting the country closer together, has again led the way. It has produced a streamlined train which marks the greatest step ' forward in rail travel since the loco- | motive. Made of aluminum, the train has a top speed of 110 miles an hour. It is air-conditioned and comes close to be silent. Interior furnishings are luxurious. Riding qualities are a cigar- safety factor built into it. It will revolutionize railroading. The type of vision that produced such a train as this made the rail- road industry great in the beginning by harnessing deserts, roaring rivers and mountains with bands of steel laid through a savage wilderness to vears of the most discouraging ex- it had better he good.” After reading Polly's story, Wardell tossed it over to the city desk without even looking at her. His only com- ment was: “Not bad for a girl re porter.” “Do 1 get a job?” asked Polly. “Yes, I guess you're worth a trial. But you probably won't stay long. Just about the time you are beginning to get valuable to us you nndoubtedly will get married.” “You needn't worry about that,” Polly laughed. “TI won't,” Wardell retorted. One evening about two months later the managing editor stopped at Polly's desk, and said: “Put some powder on your nose and come along to din- ner. I want to talk to you.” Polly's heart almost stopped beating. Although she had done everything she could to please him since she had been on the Breeze, Polly hardly had been noticed by the managing editor. The two brief sentences he had just uttered contained the most friendly words he ever had spoken to her. “So far I've been wrong about at least one woman repo-ter,” Wardell began, when he and Po!» were seated in a restaurant near the office, “You've been doing fine work, Polly, but I'm going to give you one more test. If you stand this I'll take back all I said the day you came in for a job. If you don’t, you're through.” “What is the test?” asked Polly. “You're going to help me cover the two state political conventions, and it is going to be a tough job. The first one is next week.” Polly worked harder during the next two weeks than she ever had worked before. But she had a glorious time. She was sure her work had been sat- isfactory, for Tom had been unusually kind, even tender at times, and be- cause of this Polly hardly could be- lieve her ears when he told her she was through as a reporter. “You will find two weeks’ extra pay waiting for you at the office,” he said, as the special convention train sped them homeward. “You've had your last assignment.” “Why?” asked “Didn't 1 do good work “Yon did wonderful work, darling,” Tom said, heedless of the other pas- sengers as he slipped his arm around Polly, incredulous. on her. “But I don't want you as a re porter any longer. I want you as my wife. You see, 1 was right when I said women reporters got married just about the time they were getting val uable to their newspapers.” “On,” said Polly, snuggling down closer to him. Then: “Tom.” “Yes, dear.” “I'm glad you were right.” BE Protect Baby Chicks Placing all feed and water con- tainers for chicks on low platforms covered with hardware cloth will neriences—years in which they have been over-regulated, over-taxed, and have had to face subsidized and pri- prevent the chicks from picking up contaminated feed snd water.
