Uncle Sam Was Out Traded A Nebraska man who has been in the navy a long time, was in the congressional office the other day to talk about the naval appropria tion bill. lie says that the two capital battleships which Uncle Sam is building are absolutely necessary for national defense even if they do cost sixty mill ion dollars each to build. This Nebraska man who loves the navy admits that if U ncle Sam had been a good yankee trader at the time we agreed to cut down the size of our navy' we wouldn’t have to be building any of these expensive ships now. The reason we have to do it now is that we actually destroyed and blew' up cap ital battleships which w'ere just completed while some of the for eigners, including Great Britain, merely destroyed the blue prints. One of the new ships we blew up and destroyed was the Washington —-a brand new ship which was just finished and cost the taxpayers over thirty million dollars. But the Washington was only one of many ships we destroyed and which we are now replacing with millions of new money. Foreign diplomats who knew they were merely going to destroy blue prints must feel greatly satisfied with their end of the bargain according to some Am erican naval men who are still chaffing over destroying what is now being replaced. Foreign Rice F«r Beer One of the biggest breweries in the country, the Heurich Brewery, is located near the statue of Wil liam Jennings Bryan in Potomac park. A visit to the brewery and an interview with the brew master shows that this brewery, like many others in our country, is now using rice instead of corn for the manu facture of beer. This brew master says that rice is cheaper than corn and that the rice used here comes from the seaboard and that origin of that rice is the orient or some foreign country. Government Employees Organize In answer to questions regarding organization* of government em ployees, it can be stated that prac tically all of the employees of the government departments are now in what is known here as the “AFGE.” This means “American Federation of Government Employ ees.” There are so many thousands of government employees now that this organization is broken down into “lodges" or branches with each branch or lodge having its own presidents and other officers and representation in the big or Nation al organization. Members usually pay 40 to 50 cents a month for membership and because of large numbers this mem bership runs into big sums when the final total is taken into consid eration. In reply to “what good employees get out of such organiz ations” it can be said that much of the good is social contact at dances, "meats" FRESH FISH FOR FRIDAY FRESH CATFISH *Ar FRESH HALIBUT SATURDAY SPECIALS Fresh GROUND BEEF \ Per I'ound . ....

Government Spends Thousands For Tolls A war in Spain or China or any place on this globe costs the Am eriinan taxpayer money. That fact became known in the discussion on the new appropriation bill for the state department. Very few people know it but trouble in Ethopia or Russia may cost them thousands of dollars in telegraph tolls alone. Its going to cost the American taxpay ers about $252,000 for telegrams in 1938 alone; maybe more, depending upon how restless or tranquil the governments of the world will be during the year. The department spent $52,290 for messages to and from Spain. That big amount for the Spanish trouble exclusively. Because of difficulties in Jerusalem recently, Uncle Sam speivt $12,000 for the first six months on cables to and from there. It cost over $8,000 to telegraph to Geneva for the first six months and messages going to and from Rome, Paris, London and Berlin run from four to eight thousand dollars each, for the half year. The telegrams for Tokio, Japan cost about four thousand dollars and those for Nanking, China, run around $6,000. Abnormal conditions in the foreign countries cost the Amer ican taxpayers big sums of money. Broadcast News To Our Representatives Abroad Uncle Sam uses the naval radio for China almost entirely and so the government doesn’t pay any thing for a large portion of Chinese telegrams. The Navy came to the taxpayers rescue during the Ethio pian trouble. Uncle Sam had to reach Ethopia thru the French, Italian or British cables. The cost was tremenduous and also there was danger of interruption. Then the navy radio operators solved the problem. They set up an American radio station at Addis Ababa and Uncle Sam carried on his own com munication thru our navy wireless station in Ethopia, Uncle San sends out reports over the naval radio station nighth and the receiving sets pick these communications up in most foreign countries where Uncle Sam has representatives. The foreign coun tries allow Uncle Sam to have these receiving sets to pick up these messages from home but they will not give Uncle Sam permission to install broadcasting stations in the American foreign embassies. The matter now _ broadcast by Uncle Sam over the world from the naval station is in the form of a news letter so that American representa tives can be kept abreast of what is going on at home. The State Department has only one direct cable service and that is to the American Embassy at Lon don. For the information of radio students who have inquired; the government does send some instruc tions to China via navy wireless but so far as code messages and important messages are concerned, these are sent either hy cable or commercial radio except where di rect communication by naval radio is available.
