AT THE ''JUNGLE'
In a nook at the edge of a wood
ed glade
On the banks of the "Old Mud
dy," near here,
There's a camp that "tourist"
and " 'bo" have made,
And as shrine to their patron
hold dear.
It's revered by the craft as a
kind of retreat
From the woes and burdens of
care;
And in summer or winter his
votaries meet
To hold social conclave there.
A brotherhood wide as the limit-
. less land
They are bound to no "civil
code"
But an unwritten law governs
each of the band
In his conduct as "Knight of
the Road."
No
sovereign to dictate
-no
creed but their own
They are "monarch of all they
survey;"
In "the jungle" they rule from
a mossy throne
And carol their glad rounde
lay. With a "mulligan stew" a feast
for the gods
A smoke, and a quaff from the
spring.
Each knight cites experiences
"riding the rods"
And the Joy of a life like a
king.
The sessions are open no
guards at the gate
Callers "hail met" all hour3 of
the day
If you crave recreation, permit
me to state ,
You'll be welcome as flowers
in May.
Take a box" of "Prince Albert,"
a package of "fags,"
And visit that "camp" some
day;
You may hobnob with royalty

Or a Wallingford gone .to de

DIDN'T GO FAE ENOUGH
President Hoover's parting mes
sage wa3 that co-operation and not
partisanship Is the need of the coun
try in these times, but it is a prin
ciple, which i3 effective also when ap
plied between nations. Take the case
of the Chinese and Japanese pur
chasing agents who were ushered in
to the same waiting room of a Brit
ish arms factory?1 Falling naturally
into a friendly discussion of the war
they, proceeded tOj discuss the profits
which the manufacturer was making
from their orders!' This led to a joint
ultimatum to the factory that the
prices be lowered and' their united
efforts resulted in a 40 percent re
duction. It shows what can be ac
complished when people resolve to
work together in a spirit of friendly
co-operation. Grand Island Inde
pendent. The Chinese and Japanese pur
chasing agents involved in this Inci
dent stopped after they had scarcely
begun. They demonstrated what could
be accomplished when people resolve
to work together In a spirit of friend
ly co-operation, but they stopped
short of accomplishing the most im
portant problem facing the two na
tions tho establishment of eace be
tween nations.
These two purchasing agents have
no authority to handle the problems
of their respective nations. But they
can go home and tell the home folks
what they did by combining their
efforts. They can show how the out
side world is profiting by the foolisa
warfare that is being carried on Dy
China and Japan. They can tell
how, had they combined efforts, they
would have had to pay almost twice
as much for the arms purchased. And
then they might mention that the
whole business is costly, futile and
bloody and might be done away with
"in a spirit of friendly co-operation
The nationalistic feeling that in
spires continued activities is compar
able to the partisanship mentioned
above. Its elimination and the stay
ing of hostilities would be of profit
to both nations. Should China and
Japan fight economic enemies in a co
operative battle against nature and
ally their forces in a peace time strug
gle, they would both benelt without
anguish and bloodshed.
It is no more necessary that these
two nations should be clawing at
each other's throats than it is neces
sary that thev should nay two or
three price3 for their arms and am
munition. By co-operation they de
feated the prolteering arms manufac
turers. Why cannot they, by co
operation, save lives and property
Just as they saved themselves money
when dealing with a common enemy?

Betty Compton, when questioned
by reporters, said she didn't know
whether she was going to marry Jim
my Walker after his divorce or not.
"I haven't seen him since last night,"

in these days who hasn't seen her boy
friend since last, night knows wheth

even if she thought she was.
"SEETHING WITH REVOLT'
President Roosevelt is pushing
hard to make good his promises to
agriculture.
Ho has accepted as his own, and
asked congress to authorize by law,
a bold and adventuresome plan for
farm relief and for farm relief not
next year but now. It is the plan
agreed upon, after long study and
much consultation, by the farm lead
ers themselves and by the experts in
farm economics whom Mr. Roosevelt
has called to his aid.
'This plan involves the trial ol
"a new and untrod path." But "an
unprecedented condition calls for a
trial of new means to rescue agri
culture." And the new means deter
mined upon after "deep study and
joint counsel" offers, tho president
declares, "great promise of good re
sults."
Considerable opposition, the Asso
ciated Press reports, is developing in
the senate.
And a Washington report to the
Des Moines Register cays, of the
Roosevelt program as a whole:
"Backed by a massed public
opinion he demands dictatorial
power to control banking, slash
veteran expenditures, rule the
railroads, manage agriculture,
mobilize the unemployed.
"How long it will be before
the frantic legislators, sweating,
squirming under the terrific
pressure, will belt remains to
be seen.
"The caucus rooms, lobbies,
corridors seeth with revolt. It
took all the guile, craft, and in
genuity of democratic floor lead
ers in the house to prevent an
open break at the party caucus
on the economy bill. ... Even
among the veteran floor leaders
there is disaffection.
"In the house, threat of a
White house attack cowed the
rank and file on the final show
down. Republican support of the
president also forced the demo
cratic membership into line.
But it was a sullen, reluctant
acquiescence, one promising no
good for the future."
This is the invariable experience
of a new president with a new con
cress. Hi3 influence and control
lessen with the passing cf each day.
At this time the president's task is
made far more difficult than usual
because of the extraordinary requests
for crants cf newer lis ij obliged to
make.
Unprecedented conditions, freight
ed with menaces' to the'eountry un
less they ' an :dcal twlt'JElwicOly; and
promptly, justify thosrj ra;u23t3. And
they make it far mere important than
in other tl:ne3 that the president's
leadership bo supported.
President Roosevelt needs in con
gress every cunco of etrength, every
item of support, he can get, and
needs it now. His tremendous task
will steadily become more difficult.
Tho hope of the country Lang3 on its
successful pcTfomcr.ee. And the
president's hope, la congress, hangs
on tho support of the American peo
ple, regardless of party, or class, or
section. It Is tic pressure of "massed
public opinion" that alono can in
sure, on the vital measures that im
pend, the favorable action of con
gres3.
There never vrr.3 a time when
it
was so important as now for every
citizen to be i. j-cing up lh- hands oi
the president of the United States
And there i3 no other way to do it
so effective an for the voters to keep
in toucn with thslr cenator3 and rep
resentatives nt Wa-hington; to exert
to the uttermost their proper influ
ence, individual and combined, wit'
the officials they have commission
ed to represent them.
With the bill for agricultural re
lief, cf such moment to Nebraska
soon to be acted upon, and with ser
ious opposition rlreacly growing, the
people cf this state should lose not a
moment's time in making their voices
heard in the halls cf congress.
