This being Mother’s Day it was one that we shall always remember. No words of ours could do justice in a tribute. Ask any man to what he owes his success in life and he will say without hesitation, Mother. To those who are bo fortunate as to have their mothers with them the day was real happiness. Those who have had to bear the sorrow of separation join in thanking God for the privilege of having them long enough to appreciate the many sacrifices they made for them and the love extended through life. Among the proud mothers that were present, were: Mrs. Joe Mc Nichols, Mrs. John Hickey, Mrs. Pat Hickey, Mrs. John and Mrs. T. F.

Enough descendants of old pioneer stock to hand down problems for us to consider and solve. When need arose no man denied aid to his neighbor, they all helped blaze the trail and handed down this country to us on a platter. We had several scholarly students who took issue with much that was said. About four o’clock a bountiful feed was served that spoke volumes for the chefs, with plenty of ice cream for aU. Following a short intermission, a baseball game be tween the boys and girls was played which resulted in a victory for the girls with a score of 5 to 4. E. S. E. What has become of the old-time pickpockets ? Maybe they are elected to legislatures and doing business legitimately. CONGRESS AIKCKIV ' «( KARL 8TEFAM Federal Prison Population Bureau of prisons officials say that the population in federal pris ons is doubling. It used to be that the criminal didn’t often buck up against federal courts. # Since the days of the bootlegger the situa tion has changed and the depart ment of justice finds the criminal of today is scheming his way around federal laws as well as state laws with which he was most famil iar. “Age” Bureau The census bureau work has been more than tripled in the last few years. Nearly every day that bureau gets from 800 to 1,000 let ters from people who want to know how old they are. Nearly all of them are applicants for social se curity benefits.

Member federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Communist Members attending the hearings on WPA investigation were pretty much amazed when a high official of the Workers Alliance admitted he is a member of the Communist party. His name is Benjamin and he is the second ranking national officer of the organization. He tells members, however, that he does not believe the communists here are subsersive nor are they in favor of overthrowing our govern ment by force or violence. Ship Subsidies The shipping industry is getting a lot of help from Uncle Sam. It i is found that it costs about 25 per cent less to build ships in foreign countries, so Uncle Sam takes up that 25 per cent slack for American builders and also gives the ship people a big subsidy. South Amer icans who want us to build their battleships, now want to cut in on some of this American subsidy. Washington “Czars” With over 120,000 people work ing for the government here, many jealousies arise and plenty of dis cft£mina/tion is charged by em ployees. Hardly a day passes that some employee doesn’t call on his congressman or senator and make some complaiint. But they urge the congressmen not to mention their names because it’s sort of an | unwritten law not to “snitch” on the boss. The gist of these com plaints is that in many government sections efficiency ratings are based, not on the work an individ ual produces, but on one’s social standing. The socialites, accord ing to the charge in one division, get all the pay raises and the extra favors which mean a lot. There’s lots of heartaches among many federal employees here who have “czars” as section chiefs.
