The Low Dov
From Hickory Grove
It is not hard to see why some la-
bor bosses are non-plussed, and feel
terrible. You would sound off with
alarm, too like they do, if you had
been living in luxury and somebody
started pulling the floor from under
you. I got in mind the new labor
law where the top-squawks can go
to jail for certain funny business.
These gents figured their racket was
gonna last forever. They overes-
timated their muscle. They over-
estimated their political pull. They
forgot all about Congress when they
sponsored the ‘veto. Furthermore,
Congress was scum anyway, as they
saw it. . But then that is when the
miracle happened. Congress awoke,
gaunt and hungry like a bear after
an all winter sleep. Buy! How it
pounced on that veto.
Anybody who has a pencil ar any
kind of writing tools, should get
himself a post card and scribble a
line to his Congressman. Give the
old pelican 3 cheers—tell him his
spunk is refreshing. Tell him to get
going on more vetoes, and get the
country back on terra firma.

PRACTICE SAFETY
With much inexperienced help on
farms and in homes this year, it is
important that farmers and home-
makers set a good example in work-
ing around machines and in other
operations. Otherwise, emphasize
agricultural engineers of the Penn-
sylvania State College, carelessness
may be copied and costly accidents
occur.

SWEET CORN AVAILABLE
High quality sweet corn from
Pennsylvania farms will be on the
market during the next two months,
announce extension agricultural
economists of the Pennsylvania
State College.

according to an Associated Press
dispatch from Troina, Sicily.
In a correspondent’s story of a
German Focke-Wulf raid, Private
Shumaker was ‘quoted as saying:
“We got four out of eight—I hope
they bring on 12 the next time.”
The Focke-Wulfs, according to
correspondent Harold V. Boyle,
came zipping in across the hills
from three directions, whining like
angry bees. They dived to the at-
tack in a confusing pattern as U S.
Bofors guns began to putt and bel-
low, studding the skies with black
splotches of flak, while U. S. 50-
caliber machine guns began to set
up an unearthly clatter. Four of
the eight Nazi attackers crashed in
flames after being riddled with gun-
fire.
Pvt. Shumaker has a brother, Cal-
vin, serving overseas.
