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.

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. Ev-
eryone of us is proud to support our |
government. But each one of us is |
less secure in his job and his savings |
as oppressive tax and legislative pol- i
jeies discourage industries and in- |
vestments which provide steady jobs
The taxpayer is the goose that lays
the golden eggs. Will the public
servants he employs, kills him in an
endeavor to collect more eggs than
‘he can produce?

Wardell Was
Right

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

dependability, efficiency. But no rail
transport revolution took place. 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-

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.”
