Sugar Quotas Admnstraton Holds That Revson of Present Arrangement Would Represent a Slap at Amerca's Good Neghbor Polcy. By BAUKHAGE Natonal Farm and Home Hour Commentator WNU Servce, 1343 H Street, N-W,, Washngton, D. C. Sugar Quota And 'Good Neghbors' j n 1934 "after long and extensve hearngs," as the Congressonal Record puts t, a sugar law was passed. The law stablzed the sugar ndustry by establshng quotas to be rased, mported and refned and provded for beneft payments to growers for followng certan agrcultural and labor practces. Agan, n 1937, after long and extensve hearngs t was renewed. Behnd that phrase "long and extensve" les the story of a ferocous battle on the part of the sugar nterests to defeat the admnstraton measure. Each tme they faled, but early ths month n 40 mnutes and n the teeth of the state department, the department of nteror, the department of agrculture and the Whte House, the law was so rewrtten by the house of representatves as to amount to defeat of admnstraton wshes. The senate s as yet to act, after studyng reports from the above named departments. The bll as orgnally wrtten authorzed the secretary of agrculture to estmate the amount of sugar requred by Amercan consumers for a defnte perod. Then, accordng to a prescrbed scale, t apportoned quotas among the producers of contnental Unted States, Puerto Rco, the Hawaan slands, Cuba and other foregn countres. As passed by the house, the present measure would ncrease the amount of sugar purchased from the beet and cane sugar growers on CAMPY the manland and reduce the COATED rorregulat! amount of raw and refned sugar purchased from other growers. Ths step, f fnally enacted nto MR TO-MtGHT; TOMORROW ALRGHT law, says the admnstraton, would be a slap n the face of good-negtborshp: Cuba alone would have her quota cut by 50,000 tons of raw and 75,000 tons of refned sugar. And t would completely dslocate the - computatons of Secretary Wckard who thnks that the sugar quotas and beneft payments for certan practces have kept the sugar stuaton pretty well n hand. The only lobby ever heard the Presdent menton by name s the "sugar lobby." t s one of the most powerful pressure groups n the captal. * Speaker Rayburn Has Power, Energy looked down from the rado gallery of the house of representatves the other afternoon on a large pnk globule n the well of the chamber. Every eye n the house was centered on t. t seemed to glow, to radate power and energy as well as a roseate hue. t was the all but harless head of Speaker Sam Rayburn, and out of that head came the energy whch drected the acton whch saved from defeat the admnstraton's measure to revse the neutralty law. t was that energy whch jammed through the Securty Exchange law aganst stone wall opposton. t was that energy whch carred out an dea startng n that same head when t was on callow shoulders and fnally made hm speaker of the Unted States house of representatves. A barefoot boy curled up n the corner readng bographes of the country's great men was the avata*- of ths congressman. And he was stll a schoolboy when he announced the fact that he was gong to run for the state legslature as soon as he fnshed hs law course, that he was gong to be speaker some day and after that run for congress. And that's just what he dd. And all he had to start wth was $25 and hs father's blessng. Young Sam Rayburn was 1 of 11 chldren, whose forbears came **by way of Tennessee from Vrgna to a borderlne county n Texas (he was born n Bonham) and there turned the vrgn furrows n a neghborhood that stll wns ts bread from the sol. The country schoolhouse was the communty center of the tmes and here on many a festal day the Rayburn buggy was ted whle the whole famly heard the local poltcan's oratory, or attended the rectatons or spellng-bees and dscussed the latest news n the weekly edtons of the Courer-Journal. When Sam had absorbed all tha the country school had to offer ethe n ts regular sessons or when some vstng pundt proclamed hs vews, he went to hs father and sad he had to go to college. The father was n favor of the moton but regretfully explaned that there was nothng n the tll for racoon-skn coats or flvvers or the local equvalent of the day. He dd, however, present hs ambtous son wth $25 n con of the realm and escorted hm to the staton on the branch lne that was to take hm to the Texas normal college. The boy was a good student, brght and determned to learn all that there was taught hm. But when he fnshed hs course and snce he was, as we have noted, already on hs way to congress, the next step was naturally the State unversty law school. Hs shngle was hardly floatng on the Bonham breezes when he was already ready for the legslature. At 24 he was elected. He was a member for four years and then, as per schedule, was elected speaker and served n that capacty for two more. Meanwhle n the summers, he practced law. Then one d&y'n 1912 the county paper announced n blackfaced headlnes: "Stores Closed All Day and Everybody Out to Hear Fannn County's Gfted Son Who s Canddate for Congress." Just how ths specalst n measures dealng wth some of the most ntrcate and abstruse prncples of poltcal economy translates hs record nto votes for hs consttuents would seem dffcult to fathom. Hs purely agrcultural dstrct s far more nterested n stock wth four legs and a moo than t s n a stock exchange, and a transportaton act to them s chefly the act of transportng a bale of cotton rom hther to hence. But he gets thngs done for the folks and they seem to take hm and hs other achevements at ther face value. Wrtten n large letters of achevement aganst hs name are the Securtes Exchange act, the Holdng Company act and the* Rural Electrfcaton act, all, and especally the frst two, representng long and btter battles. The pressure exerted on Representatve Rayburn durng the battle for the securtes and holdng company laws was terrfc. The Presdent knew ths would be the case and that was the reason the Texan was chosen to handle them.

Frst Chrstmas Seals Orgnated n Denmark To Fght Tuberculoss That harbnger of the holday season, the cheerful Chrstmas Seal, has recently made ts appearance as the Natonal Tuberculoss assocaton opened ts annual drve for funds to contnue work n the preventon and cure of ths dread dsease. The dea of the sale of seals to ad the fght aganst tuberculoss orgnated n Denmark. -HJLtn ' Xl * -,--.-, %J1 n The followng year the frst seals were sold. The dea ganed almost mmedate popularty and soon spread 9s3QA to neghborng countres. Chrstmas seals appeared n the Unted States n 1907 when Mss Emly P. Bssel of the Wlmngton, Del., Red Cross chapter desgned a seal that was sold locally. The campagn was so successful that the next year the Natonal Red Cross adopted the dea and conducted a naton-wde campagn. From then untl 1919 the Red Cross contnued the annual Chrstmas Seal dstrbuton. n ther last year the returns had rsen to nearly $4,000,000. Begnnng wth 1920 the Natonal Tuberculoss assocaton began dstrbuton of the seals. The desgns of these stamps have been the work of promnent artsts who have nterpreted the Chrstmas sprt each n hs own way. n addton to the Unted States approxmately 40 other countres have adopted the Chrstmas seal for rasng ant-tuberculoss funds. Post Offce Auctons Gfts lost' n Mals Uncle Sam wll soon make profts by sellng Chrstmas presents sent through the mals, but he would much rather delver them and he would, f he knew where they were supposed to go. Amercan people are so rch and n such a hurry that they don't even take the pans to see that ther gfts sent by mal are properly wrapped and addressed. Of course, all are not careless about t, but the postmen do have a hard tme durng the holdays. Extra mal clerks receve mllons of dollars n wages, and a good share of ths extra force s kept busy handlng poorly wrapped and mproperly addressed packages. Many thousands of Chrstmas gfts wll be sold because they contan no clew concernng ther sender or the ntended destnaton. The "unaddfessed" department of the nqury secton of the post offce n large ctes resembles a warehouse. Some gfts cannot be held long, such as allgators from Florda, lve chckens, turkeys, or fruts. These are quckly sold and the sale prce held n a fund whch s ultmately turned nto the treasury. When all efforts have been exhausted, the undentfed and unclamed packages are sold by an auctoneer. Wrong Use The name Krss Krngle s sometmes erroneously used to desgnate Santa Claus. Krss Krngle s a corrupton of the German Chrst-kndel, the Chrst-chld.

The Feast of St. Mesmn, Dec. 15, recalls for us that few are called to serve God by great actons, but all are bound to strve after perfecton n the ordnary actons of ther daly lves. A very nterestng book, "The Man Who Got Even Wth God" by M. Raymond, O.C.S.O., would appeal to many men, young and old. t s publshed by the Bruce Publshng company. t s the story of a Texas cowboy to the santly lfe of a Trappst monk. t s a transformaton hard to magne n any case -- but when that cowboy s a volent tempered, headstrong and vndctve one, t s almost ncredble! Yet, such was the case of Brother Joachm of the Abbey of Our Lady of Gethseman n Kentucky, whose extraordnary story s s here colorfully recorded by a brother n relgon. When one reads the story, one fnds a vast and ntense nterest whch gves a complete revelaton of th e hdden trappst lfe. The eloquence and vgor revealng a lfe undreamed of, unsuspected by the great, nosy world from whch t s hdden. Here you may fnd the romantc tale of a tempestuous cowboy who always "gettng even", wth mas and who fnally "got even" wth God by becomng a Trappst monk. The book s authentc n all detals. All who love adventure and thrlls wfll fnd the book well wrtten for ther sons, brothers and dads.

The fact that many of the smartest evenng wraps are now made of handsome wool weaves s a departure from the beaten path that s attended wth exctngly new fashon nterest. Add to these rchly colorful wools a sumptuous embellshment of gltterng embrodery or applque, as desgners delght n dong ths wnter, and the after-fve fashon parade becomes a pageantry of resplendent beauty. n ths new movement of embrodered evenng wraps, capes ether long or short are the bg sensaton.

Ths model holds a partcular note of nterest n that t was dsplayed at a fashon show staged at Copacabana Palace, Ro Janero, recently under the auspces of the Brtsh Fashon Tour. Over a hundred beautful costumes, desgned by couturers who fled from Pars to London, were shown. For ths strkng evenng ensemble Norman Hartnell, the desgner, uses rose-colored more for the lovely gown, wth black velvet for the stunnng floor-length cape.

Snce September, 1933, the movement of hundreds of thousands of chldren from Brtsh ctes to countrysde and hack agan has pro- j vded a mass phenomenon wthout parallel n hsjbery or socal scence. Then France fell, the chldren went back to the country and those who had been sent to "safety" on the south and east coasts were trundled nland. n the ensung months bombs -and fres destroyed hundred^-of school buldngs (London alone lost 600, or two-thrds of the captal's total); others were commandeered for rest centers and fre-fghtng servces. Yet today, school facltes are j avalable somewhere for 96.5 per cent of the Unted Kngdom's maxmum school populaton. \ n a few places there are specal j schools, manned by psychologsts,, to heal chld mnds upset by bomb- ' ngs. But these are few. Schoolmasters who went to great lengths to provde group sngng and other dstractons for pupls durng ar rads found, as one sad: "The boys were rubbng ther hands wth glee n expectaton of the bomb splnters and other souvenrs they would be able to collect" even whle the bombs were crunchng down and the ack-ack was roarng. ' Sleep Through Rads. For a tme, schools kept open at n^ht to let chldren sleep at ther j desks because they were frghtened > n ther beds when the srens screamed. Now, one board reports, most youngsters can sleep through the nosest barrage. Even countng out t^e shoeless absentees, schools n so-called unoccuped France opened ths fall wth stll-homeless refugees addng 30 per cent to the normal attendance. The schools broadcast courses to the chldren at home and the government s tryng to get them back nto class by ssung emergency shoe raton coupons. Berln's schools began wth a normal attendance and ncreased health supervson, ncludng the dstrbuton of the vtamn tablets for the youngest boys and grls. Sx.mllon talan chldren went back to school 10 days later than usual, to fnd new bomb shelters n the larger ctes. "Solders* Novelty Bat Trcks Lousana Fsh CAMP SHELBY, MSS.
