Dispatches f com Washington assert that the farm administration ad-ministration is thinking of making the milk distributing industry in-dustry a public utility, subject to all'the government regulation regu-lation that any other puouc utility must underg . . Milk distributors have been asking the government to guarantee their prices and their profits, and this suggestion of a public utility's status is reported to be the farm administration's admin-istration's answer. .There are some ways in which this looks rather like a good idea. Supplying milk to the inhabitants of a large city is a business in which the public interest must, at certain points, take precedence over private interests. If society exercises control over such businesses as .supplying transportation, electricity and gas, might it not very popularly extend such control to the business of supplying sup-plying milk? At the very least, the idea is worth e:i ended study. The New Program The new program of recovery seems to be aimed greatly to benefit the small American home-owner. The mortgAge relief program, and now the home modernization mod-ernization plan, which will permit loans to thousands of howeowners for repair and reconstruction work, are all for the betterment of the home. President Roosevelt realizes that a nation's strength and prosperity lies in the home. Good homes mean healthy, happy families and national strength, both for protection and for industry. Up to now home-owning has been a burden too great for the wage earner. The future, under Roosevelt, may have a different story. Howdy, folks! fir, T. B.

Wounded At Party HOLLYWOOD, Feb. 1 i'.i; A Hollywood birthday party ended in gunplay early touay when the host, Earl Courtois, 31, was shot and seriously wounded, allegedly by Beverly Granger, film extra. According to Courtois the shooting shoot-ing climaxed i quarrel over another an-other woman. He claimed that five shots were fired, one striking strik-ing him in the shoulder and another, an-other, in the back. His condition was considered critical.

In torrid climates, where rain is of extreme importance, it is an age-o'id custom to induce ram to fall thru magic and sorcery. In New Guinea a wizard is appointed by the people to induce rain to tall and revive the crops. He cuts a branch from a tree, dips it in water and sprinkles the water over the ground. Rain is then supposed to fall. If not, fhe wizard, not the system, is blamed. Mock thunder and lightning are used as charms in Kussia and Japan. Fires are burned, in imitation imita-tion of lightning. The Japanese further aid the god of ram by roiling stones down the mountainsides, mountain-sides, the rumbling of which imitate imi-tate thunder. The Russians hammer ham-mer on hollow tree trunks to make the same sound. Among the peasants of Greece, Rumania and Hulgaria, in time of drouth, a procession of young j girls goes from o;ie well to an-f an-f other, and at each the beautiful youngster leading the procession , is sprinkled with much ceremony, j This is supposed to induce ram i to fall. i George Washington only led the American revolutionary forces personally in action once. That occasion was the battle of Monmouth. Mon-mouth. Always before and after, Washington remained behind the scenes, the guiding genius, and his officers directed the attack. There have been some great contrasts con-trasts in man's genius. Omar Khayyam, the tent maker, was one of the greatest poets of all time, and Leonardo da Vinci, one of the finest artists the world has ever produced, invented the lowly wheelbarrow.

Now On Gold Bullion Standard WASHINGTON, Feb. 1 (UP) Pf gging of the American dollar at 5f .06 per cent, of its former gold value established the United States on an international gold bullion standard, Secretary of Treasury Morgenthau said today. ,"The best way to describe the system," Morgenthau said, "is a 1934 model of the gold bullion standard. It is one that suits our purposes." This standard, he said, will be in effect as long as the president leaves in effect the present regulations regu-lations concerning gold. Morgenthau refused to comment upon possible operations of the government's $2,000,000,000 stabilization sta-bilization fund. He said it would be his practice not to answer any questions as to what activities in Which the fund was engaged. RECALL, DESTROYER WASHINGTON.

Together they struggled with the door but it would uot open. In the bright rays of the flashlight flash-light they saw that the man was alone in the car. He bad fallen forward, bis body pressed against the steering wheel. There was a good deal of blood on the man's clothing and some on the cushions cush-ions of the car. "Do you think he's alive?

By the time tbey reached the nearest farm bouse Drugan's heart was still beating, slowly and weakly but nevertheless beating. beat-ing. It wa: still beating, weaker and more slowly, when the doctor arrived, but It did not beat much longer. Not for one moment did the injured man regain consciousness There was nothing that the doctor could do for him. nothing at all At 23 minutes past nine o'clock that night Al Drugan's earthly cares were at an end. The women of the farm house one middle-aged, plump and gray haired, the other slender and younger hovered near tbe door of the room where Drugan's body lay. "What will we do?" the older woman asked "You're not going to leave him?" "I've called the police." Bannister Ban-nister told her. "They'll be here in a little while. No. they won't leave him here." It was in a police ambulance that they took Al Drugan back to Tremont. But when the ambulance am-bulance arrived at the farm house, besides the driver and his assistant, there were three other passengers. McNeal was among them and so was the police phy sician. The other man was from the detective bureau. Five minutes later another, smaller car drew up In the farm yard and Sawyer, the Post photographer, pho-tographer, stepped out.

McNeal wanted to know how : Drugan was lying when they j found him He wanted to know what time it was and asked a dozen other questions. Bannister left Coleman to answer them and walked away. Presently the ambulance was on its way back to Tremont. McNeal and the other detective climbed into Parker Coleman's roadster Bannister rode with the Post pbo- j tographer and they followed the roadster to the place where tbe over-turned sedan still lay.
