A vigorous reply to critics of the administration monetary policy and new details of what is in mind for the future prob ably will be included in a speech President Roosevelt will make next week. Officials Friday indicated Mr. Roosevelt intends to take note of criticism of his plan for raising prices j by buying foreign and domestic gold. Meanwhile, several recovery agen cies reported progress in the general campaign to raise prices, increase the purchasing capacity of the people, re- i duce surpluses, provide employment and administer to the wants of the needy. Gold Hits New High. The RFC price for newly mined domestic gold was advanced for the third time in as many businesss days; the Federal Surplus Relief Corp. an nounced plans for buying 10,000,000 tons of coal for distribution to the unemployed; the civil works admin istration disclosed approximately 1, 250,000 men were put to work in its first week; and the public works ad ministration allotted $26,543,053 for projects estimated to provide 161,249 man-months of employment. Throughout the controversy over the gold policy Mr. Roosevelt has said virtually nothing. Next Wednesday night he will speak before the federal council of Churches of Christ in America and this address, his intimates said, has been chosen as the opportunity tor replying to his critics. May Talk on Silver. What new plans Mr. Roosevelt may disclose was a subject of con jecture, but there was an intimation he might say something on the re habiitiation of silver. Friday's increase in the domestic gold price ran the quotation to a point 25 cents higher than last Mon day. The figure was set at $34.01", the highest yet. Meanwhile the Lon don price of gold was $32.57. Chairman Jones of the RFC an nounced that purchases of domestic gold had reached a total of 20S.000 ounces at a cost of $10,200,000. He would not say how much had been bought in foreign markets. In response to the criticism that the uncertainty of monetary measures was retarding business recovery. Jones denied this to be the case. Not Retarding Loans. "I think bankers really are anxious to loan their money," he said. "I do not think the fear of inflation is causing them to hold back. The individual bank er might feel that he is not mak ing loans because of the uncer tainty but I do not think that if it comes to passing on loans he would turn down a good one." The civil works administration, de signed to provide work and pay rolls, announced that, on Nov. 25, 1,183, 267 men were employed in 44 state3. The public works allotments were but a very small part of that agency's estiate of nearly $5,000,000,000 to be spent for thi3 purpose in the next ear. Nearly three billions have al ready been earmarked for such use. Look 'em over YOU have a new Over coat in mind you need one end will probably buy one somewhere !

Everyone i3 welcome. MARIE NOLTING, . d4-ltwl3td Teacher. BOARS FOR SALE I have a few good Hampshire boars for sale. H. E. Warden, Union, Neb. d4-2tw Hitler is said to be sounding out Mussolini on the matter of a new disarmament conference. Always try ing to start trouble, that fellow. In securing the CWA grant for a Boy Scout cabin, the matter of mater ial cost has been the most perplexing problem, as barely enough could be secured to take care of the cost of roofing, lime, cement, sand, nails, etc., that cannot be secured from salvaged materials. There also appears to be a shortage of sheeting and flooring material as well as long dimension stuff for ceiling joice and rafters that will necessitate securing of other ma terial if the 20x40 foot size original ly planned is to be held to, of either used or new lumber. There are sufficient CWA funds to take care of all labor costs, but the government classification of teams or trucks usad in transporting material as a part of the material expense his made it imperative that the commit tee get much of this material haul ed free of charge or else be forced to skimp on such important items as roofing cost. It is desired if possible to place a good roof on the building of fireproof shingles that will last for many years. The contribution of trucks or teams and wagons need not involve any la bor on the part of the contributor other than driving to and from the campsite, six miles from Plattsmouth, as the labor grant is sufficient to provide plenty of help in loading and unloading. The Cloidt Lumber Com pany and Tidball have both volun teered use of their trucks for a part of this hauling and as soon as weath er permits will be called upon to haul the brick for foundation to the camp. Other truck or - team owners who would be willing to give a day to this work as outlined above should leave their names with E. H. Wescott as quickly as possible, as it is desired to get most of the material on the site during the coming week. Plan details of various size cabins are expected from Chicago tomorrow morning and the committee will hold another meeting Sunday to definitely decide on size and interior arrange ment, so that brick masons can begin laying the foundation walls the fore part of next week. The first men assigned to work on the project will be engaged In cut ting a roadway into the land and in loading and unloading material from the donated trucks or wagons. As soon as details of the swimming hole portion of the propject can be worked out, there will be Jobs provid ed for a considerable force of men as this will all be hand labor. In ad dition, the building force will be ready to start work as soon a3 the foundation is completed, but men will not be requisitioned for these jobs un til the work is ready. It is the desire of the committee to get the best possible Scout cabin with the funds provided and the man-hour allotment approved by the govern ment, using salvaged material voted it by the city council. The Rotary club has voted some $85, proceeds of a special birthday fund maintained by that organization for a number of years, to be used in purchase of ma terial or furnishings for the new cabin. It is quite probable other local civic organizations would be willing to contribute something toward pur chase of other needed materials or for the furnishing of the cabin after the work shall have been completed. Corn Process ing Tax is Kept at Five Cents Scheduled Increase to 20 Cents Per Bushel Prevented by Revision cf Regulations. Washington. The farm adminis tration revised it3 corn processing tax regulations to as to continue the pres ent five cent a bushel tax instead of increasing the rate to twenty cents at micinight Thursday as originally provided. The revision was made by Acting Secretary Tugwcll of the agri culture department with approval of President Roosevelt. Tugwell's revision of the regula tions reads in part: "I do hereby de termine that in order to effectuate the declared policy of said act, an ad justment of the rate of the process ing tax on the first domestic process ing of field corn, as of Dec. 1, 1033, is necessary. Accordingly, in part re vision of the second paragraph of field corn regulations series No. 1, supplement No. 1, I do hereby deter mine that the rate of the processing tax on the first domestic processing of field corn, as of Dec. 1, 1933, shall be five (5) cents per bushel of fifty six (56) pounds, which said rate will prevent the accumulation of surplus stocks and depression in the farm price of field corn."

That tradition about city editors never being sur prised got a jolt when a telephone on the Chronicle city de.-k rang and a voice said: I want to borrow a wife and children." "You what?" The voire gave evidence of em barrassment. "It's Thanksgiving, isn't it?" It went on. "Well, I'd like to be the father of a family Just for a day and take 'cm cut and buy 'em Thanksgiving dinner a widow who doesn't know where the next meal ia coming from. It's Just a whim. I Well, I used to be an orphan, you see. " "Call me in half an hour," caid the city editor. Then he telephoned a number on a list. The woman's voice at the other end, at first incredulous, sud denly broke. "I'm ju?t happy, that's all," she cried.
