That will mean that the National Recovery Admin istration hals completed its first great task. At this writing 59 codes covering the basic industries, have been approved. One hundred thirty seven are being revised. Forty-seve- n are scheduled for early hearings. By the time this is read the retail code, which was one of the most difficult, will have been approved unless some unlooked-fo- r problem crops up. Most interesting feature in the code is that it will eliminate selling, at less than Inventory cost, a practice that has been prevalent especially among large stores, which advertise "leaders" at less than cost in the hope that customers buying them will also buy other goods on which a profit is made. Very small stores, in towns of the bottom-brck-population, will be immune to code provisions. One important NRA problem is going to be the attitude of the press. Here's where the recovery administration made a possible mistake. When General Johnson excluded two reporters from his oonference, because he didn't like what they had been writing about NRA. he was daing the unprededented. Then he put his foot in deeper by advocating a licensing system for papers, and Just about every metro-politia- n editor in the country ran for his typewriter. On top of that, an NRA representative in the south called on the editor of a medium-size- d paper, told him that if he didn't stop making unfriendly comment on NRA labor provisions, he'd find himself in trouble. The editor spoke up in his rfeper and found the whole press, including the most zealous supporters of the Roosevelt program, behind him. This threat-p;e- d press censorship is vitally important, and sparks are going to fly when it really comes to a lead General belief is that Mr. Roosevelt is heartily in frvr of a free press that his mistake is in not holding a tight enough reign on some of his assistants. et Mr. and Mrs. S.

They have furnished local citizens with a lot of clothing and food, all of which has been really appreciated, and in turn the people who can afford to do so, should Join for the coming year. 4. - W.

Passed Away Wednesday After An Illness of Six Weeks; Deceased Man Was Native of Monroe. One Fourth In School Universities Enroll Over A Million Students Each School Year With a million teacher to take the lead and thirty million young people to form a daily contact between home and school, American Education Week is being observed by parents and educators all over the country. Attention is being concentrated this year on a means to keep the schools open, on cutting down the overcrowded classes, on saving 100,-0from total deprivation of schooling, and on paying $40,000,000 back ' salary to teachers. While industry and trade are from the crisis, America's biggest "industry" is suffering from its most serious depression, accordin to Dr. George F. Zook, United States Commissioner of Education. He recently said "The condition facing education is certainly as dark as it is painted. It is widespread, and it shows no signs of immediate improvement." From Commssioner Zook's headquarters, the Bederal Office of Education, come significant statements about our American schools: One fourth of the total population is engaged either In getting or giving an education. Education employs more than 1,000,000, teachers, in addition to a" large number of Janitors, carpenters, electricians and persons engaged in manufacturing and selling school supplies. In city schools there was an increase of about 2 pupils per teacher between 1930 and 1933. In one or our states the average size class of today is 44 pupils. City schools cut their costs 22 per cent betwen 1930 and 1933, facts from a group of typical cities show. In 1930, the average daily expense per child was 54 cents; in 1933 it was 42 cents. Compare 42 cents with some daily expenditures for services and supplies lunch, golf, hair dresser, gasoline. When we consider the importance of education in a democracy, and the unimportance of many things for which we spent 10 to 15 cents a day it is astonishing how Inexpensive education is. We spend five times as much- - on pleasure cars as we do on education. There are 1,466 colleges and Universities in the United States. These Institutions of higher learning enroll more than a million students. Enrollment in small city school systems increased 1,000,000 in the past two years, while income decreased $34,000,000. One fourth of the cities reporting to the Federal office of Education decreased salary budgets for schools from 12.6 per cent to 43 per cent in the past two years. o 00 The Service Star Legion are spon soring a banquet for all men and their partners and all Service Star Legion members and their partners to be held in the North Ward Amusement hall Sat at 6:30 P.

Following are a few other hints which Mrs. Barrows recommends to help solve some of the homemakers problems. If a screw has been pulling loose dip the end in warm glue before replacing it. Parafin or soap rubbed on the dunway of the window or the rope that holds the weight, may solve the window sticking problem. A firm grip may be taken on a fruit Jar top by the help of a piece of sandpaper. A worn silk stocking makes an ideal paint strainer. Cut the foot off the stocking; tie a knot in its place and then stretch the top over the paint can and strain. If the sizing has worn from the rug back, tack the rug face down and apply glue size with a paint brush. The size is made by dissolving pound of flake g!ue in two quarts of water. When the rug is dry it will lie like new. one-four- th r |
