London is planning to do away with all railways above ground. The track ways may be converted into highways or speedways for motor traffic.

O 4,I can't understand why you make so much fuss about a woman serving as a deputy sheriff. We women vote now and I cannot understand why we should not be willing to take our places in any of the positions men assume." was the way Mrs. Ethel Johnson Pleiffer, twenty-eight, first regularly appointed wouan official with the power to ar rest who ever has seined In the Har din county sheriff's office, met a sug gestion that she pose for her picture and talk for publication. "I feel perfectly at home In this job and am getting along just fine," Dep uty Sheriff Ethel Pfeiffer continued. "Why, I served my first warrant to day and, if I do say it myself, I wasn't a bit scared." "Will you tote a gun and go out after the bold, bad men who fracture the laws?"' the new deputy sheriff was asked. "Most certainly I will," was aer re joinder. "I feel confident that I am capable of fulfilling the duties of my position and I don't want to be a slacker. "I won't be afraid to pack a gun when I have to ; but, say, do you know, it's a funny comparison, but I am really afraid of a mouse. That's a -feminine trait I guess I'll never get over," confessed the deputy sheriff, who is the mother of several children.

While Japan does not pro duce sufficient rice for the needs of her people, who. even after an elabor ate banquet, require a bowl or more of their staple food, production has kept pace with the increase of the population. In the early days of the Maijl reign, when the population was 35,000,000, there was 35,000,000 koku of rice produced. This year, with a population of 70,000,000, . the crop Ih estimated at an equal number of koku. The increase in production is due more to improved methods than great er acreage under cultivation. 3 4 f4 4 4 '4 4 4 4 4 3 4 iA- " '-.AAfc""' . . ' . At .
