Great Need For Housing America's boast of its high standard of living is dealt a terrific blow in the PWA report that lists 11,000,000 of the nation's homes as definitely- in the slum class. If a third of the country's population is dwelling in houses and neighborhoods of a character "to injure the health an1 endanger the safety and morals and interfere with normal lives," then our boast is a hollow mockery. Whether or not the time has come, as the report insists, in-sists, "for private enterprise to abandon an impossible task and let the community take it over," conditions call for immediate im-mediate action on a huge scale, whatever agency is chosen. With thousands of building craftsmen idle, with material ma-terial business at low tide, with thousands of householders willing to borrow money if reasonable credit terms can be obtained, and with surveys showing a growing shortage of good rental property, it seems that concentration on this problem would do more than anything else to help relieve depression and alleviate misery. Closer to Millennium It seems that every time the doctors of the country meet they produce so much encouragement in the battle against disease, that surely the millennium, at least in health, should arrive sooner than one might expect. At the very beginning of their session in Atlantic City, for example, the doctors announced such marvels as a "brain wash" that has cured paralysis and other human deformities, de-formities, and an antiseptic solution 10 times as strong as the strongest in use today. Of course, it may take some time before either of these innovations can be included in the regular physician's routine. rou-tine. Such an important matter as technique must be worked work-ed out first. But it does give one a feeling of considerable satisfaction satisfac-tion that the promise of relief, at least, for some of our most tragic diseases and deformities may soon be fulfilled. Annual Summer Warning This being the season of the year when bathing beaches and the old-fashioned swimming hole are doing an overtime business, a repetition of those annual words of caution to bathers might not come amiss. The cautionary words are few and simple. Don't go into the water for at least an hour after eating; don't go out beyond your (teptTT ' Uiflas8"yotr are" an expert swimmer; don't dive into any pool without first ascertaining the depth; dorVt swim when over-heated or over-tired; always find out in advance if there are any treacherous currents or undertows in ithe water where when you plan to bathe. All of these little rules can be summed up more simply in the admonition : use common sense. Every summer week-end brings its reports of drownings drown-ings at bathing places. Nearly all of these tragedies could be avoided if bathers used proper care. One of the finest of summer sports, swimming need not be dangerous if the swimmer exercises reasonable forethought. 4-H Club News at Springville The S.

NEW POLICY I Though not generally realized the announced plans of the Rural E 1 e c t r i f i cation administration mark a distinct departure in New Deal policy.

In the case of the REA, however, it is different. Morris L. Cook, brilliant head of the new agency, is 'going to great pains to emphasize that the government gov-ernment wants and hopes for the cooperation of private capital. That this invitation is not . a mere gesture is evidenced by the following rules laid down by Cooke: 1. That the REA's construction activities will be conditioned upon what private utilities will do in expanding their rural service. In other words if a private company in a certain area is willing to ex pand its rural lines the REA will keep aloof from that area. 2.

That in financing rural el ectrification developments the REA will loan, not grant the money. Cooke is firmly opposed to outright grants, holds that the activities of his agency can best be promoted if conducted on a strictly business basis.

When McAdoo campaigned for Garner on the Democratic ticket, Dockweiler lost control. McAdoo became comitteeman In his place. Now the scene has changed.
