Something is out of balance when the world has to fight a war every quarter century. We have had our economic troubles down through the years. There was inflation and de flation. There were good times and there were depressions. Trade wars have been fought and there have been shooting wars. Tobacco sells for nearly half dollar a pound in one period, and goes for eight cents in another period. Such antics are more like those of heathens and cannibals. And, yet, we are whooping it up for a return to normalcy. Now is the time to iron out some of the kinks and work to smooth out our economy and lay the foundation for lasting peace. Those who would dare suggest a program don't have to be communists, socialists or radi cals. They see the failure of the old plan, and they are anxious to work for a new one—one < that will get the nation and the world on an even keel. Some say that is impossible, but those who maintain that view are the ones who do not have to do the shooting or exist on inadequate wages. For Everyone American foreign policy has stagnated on the misconception that we can give, or withhold, the secrets of the universe. We should know that science has no racial, religious or geographic limitations. It is at the service of the atheist as well as the Christian. None can deny others the use of their minds.—Wilson (Kan ) World.

I believe that all of the Allies, including ourselves, must eliminate “The little foxes’’ of hate, distrust, and suspicion between ourselves. These “Little foxes” have been gnawing dang erously at the infant vines of Allied unity. We must all replace the “Little foxes" with the will, intent, purpose, and desire for a just and lasting peace. 3. I believe that America must be a good Sa maritan to the world, helping it to help itself. This means adequate relief for all peoples in distress. That includes the prevention of inhu man suffering in Germany and Austria. I believe that common justice, Christian char ity, and common sense demand that Germany and Austria be rehabilitated along with the rest of Europe so as to contribute to the peace and prosperity of the globe. 4. I believe that the Moscow Conference of the Big Three, with its give and take, its com promises is an excellent omen for the future. Its results are neither grounds for extreme op timism nor extreme pessimism It indicates that first steps have been taken to eliminate discord between the Allies. If it is followed up in the Far East by com plete respect for the statesmanship of General MacArthur, our progress will continue there. 5. I believe that the unsettled problems of bleeding Poland can be solved satisfactorily with Russia. So, too, the well-being of the Baltic, Balkan, and other European peoples, now in doubt, can be provided for through agreement with Rus sia. The near eastern and Asiatic problems are no more unsolvable than any other problems, if we will alhw right, reason, and justice to pre vail Something Else Wrong The wave of strikes following the close of the war has interrupted production, no doubt, but something else has been wrong to slow down deliveries of wanted goods. When about 475,000 workers were idle, there were nearly fifty-two million others at work. While other industries were idle, the steel cor porations were running full blast, but it was next to impossible to get steel. About the only thing that moved into markets in what seemed to be limitless quantities were popcraekers and a world of junk that was almost worthless and unneeded and without which the people and the country would have been better off.

DDT War On Pests Needs Further Test -$—— Many American communities cur • mmmfa^r, *h,f •?«***,, **•? will find at she outset that DDT is not the Deacetime “miracle" exterm inator that it was during the war ac cording to review of past results this week. It does the job ultimately but it takes time and study for satisfy ing results. Tliis v. as proved in New Jersey, which last summer experienced more than a mild relapse toward its old time infestation of mosquitoes. Fol lowing complaints in many com the big ones w ere night, the state took a band and with airplanes sprayed infested areas. A state report on the results show ed that while the DDT sprayed in this manner was noticably effective, it did not come close enough to elim inating the pests. This, said a state official, was due to the fact that spraying from a plane is not wholly effective because the DDT does not penetrate deep enough into vegita tion. The proper method, the official explained, is to cover an area both from the air and with workmen afoot spraying deep in the marshlands where they reach the pests both in the active and dormant stage. Lack of manpower prevented this proced ure last year with the result that the New Jersey campaign was only mildly successful and resident in the complaining municipalities continu ed shadow boxing in the night to fight off the singing stingers. Penetration to the depths of fen lands which harbor the pests is nec essary said the official, because only by this method can the DDT reach the larvae which has been known to lie dormant for as long as 10 to 12 years. It is this fact, he reported, which gives rise to a recurrence of mosquito invasions in places where it was thought they had been wiped out. New Jersey communities, hit heav iest by mosquitos last summer, found the state report generally optimistic. They found that while it was not immediately encouraging as to air plane spraying, it was negative only, at the lime, on the point of insuffi cient manpower. An expected increase in manpow er next “mosquito time," the state feels, will allow for the first real test with the new “miracle” chemi cal next Summer and in view of its effectiveness in the war, it is ex pected to do the job thoroughly. Sci ence, at least, gives it a place among the important wartime discoveries, mainly because of its effectiveness in killing of vermin which spread con tagious diseases. Name And Account j Number Important On or before midnight, Thursday, January 31, employers who are sub ject to insurance provisions of the | Social Security Act, will send to the! Government their quarterly payroll tax returns, covering the last three months of 1945. Mrs. Ruth G. Duffy, manager of the office of the Social Security Board today called attention to the fact that an employer can save him self time and trouble, by making cer tain that the name, account number, and wage earnings of each worker employed by him during October, November, and December 1945, are shown on this tax report. He said also that most of the employers in this section are very careful to in clude the name and the Social Se curity account number, as well as the wages of each employee, in their re ports, but there are still a few who do not realize that the law applies to every business or industrial estab lishment, even though it has only on^ employee. Soi ial Security tax returns are sent by the employer to the Collector of Internal Revenue. Shortly there after, the wage reports are transmit ted to the Social Security Board, and there each item of wages is credited to the proper account. Every insur ed worker has an individual wage record and this record will be used, later, as a means of determining die amount of benefits that may be pay able to him wh a he is old or to his dependents in case he should die. “Garden Of Killin' “ Is Started By Minister -» "Garden of Ratin' ", quipped the Washington Post recently when tell ing the story of the Rev, H.

Rich, testing his theory about sun light for animals, designed and built a calf barn with a “southern .expos ure” and enclosed entirely on the southern side bv glass windows bing ed at the top, allowing sunlight to bathe the whole barn through most of the day. A calf raised in this new barn was one year younger than a calf reared in an old-type barn vir side. the difference in their sizes was negligible. Rich credits to sunlight the faster growth of the younger calf. The “Rich” calf barn is built on cinder blocks, is 120 feet long and 20 feet wide. Its calf stalls are so con structed that each section can be re moved separately when a cleaning is needed. The flooring is concrete covered by three to four inches of dry wood shavings. A four-foot aisle along the front side of the barn al lows room for work with the calves. The faim manager concludes that “sunlight, good feed and sanitation j are the most important factors in the i successful raising of calves,” and suggests that the sunlight factor should bo given first consideration in [ remodelling or building a new barn.
