* PAGE 6 THIS WEEK j In Washington Washington, Dec. 14?With the return of the President to Washington from his triumphant journey to South America, the policies which will govern his second Administration are beginning to take shape. In the absence of any public statement by the President, a great deal of the talk about what he intends to ask Congress to do must be accepted as pure speculation It has always been difficult to read the President's mind and probably not until he delivers his annual message to Congress on January 5 will there be any clear-cut definition of his program. In general, however, the best in formed Washington opinion is that his aim will be to find ways of increasing the production and distribution of commodities at the same time increasing the general wage level and shortening the working hours in industry, and without permitting too high a proportion of corporate incomes to be distributed as profits to capital. In other words, the Administration's purpose will likely be to so control and regulate business as to insure a wider distribution of wealth That objective which, if reached would mean practically the abolition of poverty and economic distress, is one with which even the Administration's vigorous opponents are heartily in accord- Such differences in opinion as may arise will be as to whether the methods proposed will accomplish that objec-l tive. The President is believed to have come around to the view that low commodity prices don't necessarily mean low wages. It is expected that he will not encourage any organization of business which has for its purpose the maintenance of high prices and large profits. The aim is, rather, expected to be the stimulation of mass production methods which have proved so successful in many industries in reducing prices to the consumer while at the same time increasing wages to the men engaged in production. Here and Abroad There is no question that President Roosevelt's prestige, both politically and in the public mind, has been greatly increased by his speeches and his reception in South * k 1 nlAnMbH I America, ine way na& uecu uuoiw, it is believed here, for something approaching complete solidarity of the Western HemisphereBeyond doubt, the nations between the Atlantic and the Pacific are wholeheartedly for closer international relations among themselves, looking toward lasting peace and closer trade and diplomatic relations Now that uncensored reports of what is going on in Spain are beginning to come out, it appears 1 that what started as a civil war has ] begun to take on serious internal- ' ional aspects. Positive evidence tlu-t ( Russia is supplying tanks and other * ammunitions of war to the Communist government forces in Spam, 1 and that Italy and probably also ! Germany have been furnishing 1 both munitions and men to the Fascist rebels, has reached the State Department. These seem to presage a conflict which may easily involve all of Europe.

Washington, therefore, is watching European offairs more closely than ever before. It seems quite probabe that one of the most important problems presented to the new Congress for its early consideration will be the revision and strengthening of our neutrality lawsAs an evidence of the delicacy of the international situation, the State Department has issued orders to the entire diplomatic and consular corps that hereafter no member of these services may marry a tors O'FOLKS * - , ' COULD LEARN FR0W THEIR D06S: |?v ft | j D06S ARE NAPPY |B?

From the cheers and wild applause that follow, it's hard to believe that each holiday diner is silently regretting that "last spoonful of sausage dressing." Though some of the old English Yuletide traditions have gone forever, Christmas dinner at Grandma's can be the same?plum puddin' and all, except we can rest assured that grandmother isn't overdoing it. In the process of becoming "modern," Grandma has adopted the time and energy-saving methods of her young contemporaries. Among other things, she has a new automatic electric range. Steam in Thrift Cooker So, why not revive the old time Christmas spirit and make a plum pudding this year? The Thrift Cooker unit of the electric range provides the new way for accomplishing this old process. This unit, so cleverly installed in the cooking ~ ? i 1 _i top ot the range is tne iaeai sieamer. Well do we all remember the elaborate ceremony attached to malring plum pudding in the old days. The contents were carefully tied in a muslin bag, and the bag was tossed into a kettle of boiling water. And, oh, the patience this ritual required! One had to keep a watchful eye on the water level, and the fire had to be fed "every little while" to keep the water boiling. With the Thrift Cooker, however, the pudding cans or molds are foreigner without the State Department's consent. Nearly 200 American diplomatic and consular officials have married foreigners in the past four or five years. The purpose of the regulation is to prevent the development of too sympathetic an international point Df view on the part of the men who are sent abroad to represent the United States in foreign countries. Thoy must h:>ve no relationships which could possibly keep them from dealing with every situation from a strictly American viewpointThe Speakership Present indications are that the I BANG!

There is no peace in sight between the two major factions of organized labor, the American Federation and the Committee for Industrial Organization. The Department of Labor is almost in despair at the failure of its efforts thus far to avert or to settle the strikes in the glass industry, the rubber industry and various other industries, the effect of which has been to slow up production of commodities for which the demand is increasing. Soil-Building To Be Stressed In Program Soil-building will be given greater emphasis in the 1937 conservation program, according to Dean I. O. Schaub, of State College. Farmers will be encouraged to grow fewer money crops and more crops for soil-conservation and for providing food and feed for home consumption, he pointed outLarger soil-conserving crop bases will hp psfnhlichpH hp ftfiiied. and theje will be stricter regulations regarding the minimumu acreage of conserving crops required. The minimum payment any farm will be allowed to earn has been increased from $10 to $20, and it may be earned by carrying out soilbuilding practices or reducing cash crop acreage or both. The rate of payment per acre for carrying out soil-building practices will be in line with those paid this yearCotton diversion payments will remain the same, five cents a pound on the average production of land taken out of cotton, up to 35 per cent of the base acreage. Tobacco payments will also continue at five cents a pound, but a grower may divert only 25 per cent of his total base next year instead of 30 per cent as in 1936- The amount of peanut diversion has been reduced from 20 to 15 per cent nf fhA hciqp hut. the navment rate will remain at 1 1-4 cents a pound. Growers will not be encouraged to divert their base acreages of other soil-depleting crops, but when considered advisable, county committees will authorize them to do so Payments for these diversions may be slightly less than they were this year. Soil-depleting crop base acreages for each farm this year will be: carried over into 1937, with such TOM GILLAM SAYS: All Used Cars That LOC j A USED CAR One of our good-looking U! yuor family throughout th on Christmas one of the sp hand.?Terms.

Answer: If the corn is seufficiently dry when shelled it can be stored in bags without damage provided it is treated for weevil control before storage. The corn should be treated with carbon disulphide and then stored in a dry place. Where the corn is a little green it is best to wait until it thoroughly dries before shelling as the slight dampness may cause the grain to moldQuestion: Is it possible to cure or rnrn lomh ne von rin rwrfr and beef? Answer: Yes. The shoulders and legs are the cuts most frequently corned. To each 10 pounds of lamb use one and one-half cups of salt, one-half tablespoon of saltpeter, and three-quarters of a cup of brown sugar.

Since lamb absorbs more salt than beef, special care should be | taken not to use more than the quantity specified. What Is the best grain mixture for a poultry ration? Answer: There are several grains 1 or combination of grains that give ] satisfactory results, but the one ] most commonly used in all sections of North Carolina is composed of j sixty per cent yellow corn and for- * ty per cent wheat- However, this t ration should be largely governed by what Is grown on the farm, and the cost of the grain which must be purchased. Where there is an abundance of heavy barley (48 pounds to the bushel) these may be ^ substituted for a part of the corn \ and wheat, but should never exceed thirty per cent of the grain mixture. ! ?
