We Americans are thinking niore about democracy and valuijrig it more highly these days because its destruction in other countries has made us considered what life here would be like without it. We are determined that its institutions of freedom shall be kept secure for America, no matter what the cost. In 1917 and 1918, likewise, Americans did not count the cost of defending democracy. The cost for some was their lives. They gave their all in answer to the nation's appeal for protection from autocratic force, then embodied in the might of the Kaiser. On Poppy Day, Saturday, May 27, we will have opportunity oppor-tunity to pay special tribute to the men whodied for the cause of democracy. We will be asked to wear their flower, the poppy from the fields where they fell, to show that we still remember and honor theirsacrifice. We will have opporunity, too, to help those who sacrificed sacri-ficed health and strength in the conflict, their families and the families of those who have died. Our contributions for our poppies will help lighten the burden for those still paying the cost of democracy's victory in suffering and privation. A poppy on our coat on Poppy Day will mean that we honor the dead who fell for democracy and that we are aiding aid-ing the living whom gave health and strength in patriotic service to America. OUT 1 The Mexican 'Fourth9 There is one tie binding the two Americas which no European country can hope to duplicate. They all celebrate, on different days, one anniversary which marks the victory that freed them from European domination. Just as we celebrate Independence Day on the Fourth of July, Mexico has just finished celebrating the Cinco de Mayo, or Fifth of May. That date in Mexican minds connotes the victory over the French at Puebla 77 years ago, when Mexico frustrated an effort of a foreign country to dominate it.

Hopkins', predecessor, Dan Roper, was a skillful politician politi-cian and a kindly man to work for but he put no driving force into the task of running the department. depart-ment. He knew few- business men; the business community sel dom bothered to cultivate him Then, just recently, President Roosevelt sent the Bureau of Lighthouses to the Treasury department de-partment and transferred the Bureau of Fisheries to Interior, and the foreign service staff of, the Bureau of Foreign and Do mestic Commerce was given to the?

Curley, ol Massachusetts, has always been recognixed as a man with a great sense of humor.' One day he was drawn into a discussion on the present school syBtem. After listening to the conversation conversa-tion for a while, he caustically remarked: "I guess the present public school system is all right, but aftYr listening to commencement addresses I sometimes question U. value of education."

It collected and published a large quantity of business busi-ness statistics but the results of its researches were to a large extent ex-tent dropped into the void- Nobody No-body in particular bothered to show business how to use them or what tHe department could do for business. Illness Intervened As a result, the feeling grew that the department was slipping.

First, he has asked Congress fon $255,000 to enable him to hirey "practical business brains." Thef men he would recruit In this way he would form into an expert body to work on definite business problems as they relate to specific industries. If, for instance, the steel industry had a price problem steel leaders would be able to come in and get detailed answers to their questions on all phases of the problem. In addition, the group would work on general basis economic problems. It might take an extensive ex-tensive study of the nation's distribution dis-tribution system, for instance, or it might tackle the question of the stoppage in the flow of investment capital. Wants to Help "Little Fellow" Next, Hopkins plans to set up a division under some such title as the Division of Industrial Economics. Econ-omics. This organization would be designed to keep business posted on prices, trade move-, ments and so on, just as the AgViculturte Depuartment performs per-forms services for farmers. The small business man will come in for special attention. Hopkins goes on the theory that big business has its own marketing market-ing and industrial research at its disposal, but that small business does not. The Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce, tnere-fore, tnere-fore, will be geared to fit the needs of the small business man. Re-elect Walters . i s i sirucK mm aown, ana ne was -rjJ. L T A.

There's a gay toot-toot behind you ... a rush of wind ... a flash of waving hands. And it's another new Nash! Packed with people, picnic fear kets, and fishing rods . . . and there's a quiver of excitement in the air. If yours is a wistful eye ... if it makes you feel a little bit old to see it don't blame yourself. You've just forgotten what an automobile auto-mobile is for. But a new Nash will tell you? It won't let you dawdle over the Sunday Sun-day papers. Just looking at its rakish lines pulls you right out of the house. You get in the front seat and you're lost. For you want to try that new gearshift again . . . you want to see if this time you can hear the engine running. And suddenly you hear the click of the Fourth Speed Forward, and you're spirited out of town ... alone on an open road, with the rest of the pack far behind you. So you turn a little dial and head for rough country just for the fun of feeling again how you sweep over bumps the other cars are bobbing over ... just to see how the "Weather Eye" makes dusty air pure. Likely as not, you'll end up in some lovely spot you haven't seen for years. Stay if you want, there's even a convertible bed in a Nash. Blit It doesn't make much differ ence where you go.
