Collaborate in new Musical Venture
HOLLYWOOD, Jan. 29. (AP) When Goethe wrote
the poem arid Dukas the music for "The Sorcerer's Appren
tice," they never dreamed that their efforts would be com
bined as a starring vehicle for Mickey Mouse- and Leopold
Stokowski.
Only Stokowski's name, in the billing, will come first.
Walt Disney says so. Stokowski o-
took a modest bsw.
"The Sorcerer's Apprentice"
originally -the, story about .a little
boy who starts some magic roll
ing that he can't stop is going
to be something pretty big and im
portant. Both Disney and Stokow
ski. although they speak different
languages, say so.
The music was recorded this
week by Stokowski's orchestra
and now all Walt and his artists
have to do is to fit their pictures
to the music.
"The music will be predomin
ant," said Stokowski, "with the
animated paintings telling the
story." '
"Yep Mickey's going to be dif
ferent this time," interposed
Mickey's . papa. V.Tflere won't t be
any belly laughs in 'The Sorcer-
'er's Apprentice.' We're not 'going
after' any gags. I feel that with
.the musical interpretation of Mr.
Stopkowski I mean, Stow-koski
we wiU be entering an entirely
new field ...
TThis picture will do more to
teach people the appreciation of
music9 than anything else," said.
the orchestra leader..
"Now A'm an average nug,''
Disney said. "I won't go out of my
way to go to concerts, but I like
music. If I could have seen this
picture when I was a kid, I know
I'd have a better appreciation ot
music today.

Triple Trouble
Faces England
Farm Prices low, Cost of
Food High and Worker
Income too Small
By RADER WINGET
LONDON-(Correspondence of
the Associated Press) -The British
government soon will attempt to
meet Its triple trouble of low farm
prices, high food costs, and inade
quate incomes of workers.
. Government and private agen
cles are investigating all t h r e e
problems, and proposals to rem
edy the situation are expected to
be forwarded soon after parlia
ment reassembles February 1
Farm prices started, falling wast
spring wnen international com
modity prices tumbled abruptly
with the collapse of a speculative
boom.
The cost of living, especially re
tall food prices, continued to ad
vance until the public started
widespread protest.
Wage Increase Slow
Wages, meanwhile, rose, but the
general low-wage earner had to
spend more proportionately for
food than his higher pay would
cover.
uunng 1937 wages were ap
proximately four per cent higher,
oui tne cose oi lmng went up
around six per cent.
The ministry of labor, believinr
something was wrong with the
cost Of living Index, started, to
compile a new one. So far more
than 30,000 housewives hare been
asked to fill in forms detailing
their household expenditures as a
basis for the new index.
-me government agreed to par
half a crown (about 2 cents) for
each completed form. So far. only
13,000 have completed the form
and collected their money.
If the response doesn't get any
better soon, the ministry may drop
the whole Idea.
The women's section ot the
British labor party, meanwhile,
decided to find out itself what
was happening. The minimum diet
for a family of five, compiled by
the British Medical association
was need a an index.
The association found the hypo
thetical family spent 22 shillings
6 pence (about 16.63) a week
on the minimum diet during July,
1933.
The labor women disclosed that
the same diet In November, 1937.
cost 25 shillings 8 pence to 32
shillings (about $7.12 to $8), an
increase of 1 1.4 9 to $2.37.
Can't Afford Minimum
Many localities were uncovered
where a family of five could not
afford even the minimum; others
could buy the minimum and have
a few pence left orer.
The answer' was that many fam
ilies couldn't buy enough food to
keep themselves above the starva
tion border line.
-Some authorities believe the
admission to the United Kingdom
of United States agricultural pro
ducts, by lowering tariffs and quo
tas - under the proposed Anrlo-
American trade agreement, might
in some magic manner reduce the
cost of food and at the same time
permit British farmers to keep
their own prices steady or raise
them slightly.
Nobody, however, so far has
suggested a sweeping three-way
adjustment of farm prices, food
costs and wages.

Present Rural
Stock to Rule
Their Descendants Will
. Dominate Population
100 Years Hence
By OVID A. MARTIN
WASHINGTON, .Jan. 2 9. -)-If
you want to get a rough idea
of what Americans a century
hence may be like, get acquainted
with the men and women who
now till the nation's farms.
That's a suggestion from agri
culture -department economists.
They predict that in 2038-
about three generations away
most Americans will be descend
ants ot the rural people ot today
Their prediction is based large-
on birth rate and population
trends which show that rural folks
average larger families than their
city cousins.
Ten adults in the larger cities
are now raising omy Beren cnu-
. ....
dren." say O. E. Baker and J. Cx
Folsom, agriculture department
economists. "Should thebirth rate
fall no farther, these seven would
raise only five children and these
five an average of only 3.5 chil
dren."
More on Farms
In the farm population, on the
other hand. 10 adults were said
to be raising an average of 14
children. Again assuming a sta
tionary birth rate, these 14 would
raise about 20 children and these
20 about 28 children.
While conceding that both ur
ban and rural birth rates prob
ably will continue to decline, the
economists said that "if the past
forecasts the future," the rural de
cline will be less rapid than the
urban.
"The sirnlflcanca of these ra
tios (between' present urban and
rural birth rates) resides in the
prospect that 1,000 farm people
probably will have three to seven
times as manay descendants a cen
tury hence as 1.000 persons liring
in our larger cities, they said.
The economists said It behooved
the cities to take an Interest In
the farm population.
"If the urban birth rate con
tinues to fall, the middle-aged and
elderly In the cities will become
increasingly dependent on tha
rural regions for youth to do their
dally toll. The number of children
under five years pt age In the ur
ban population has decreased
probably 20 per cent during the
laat 10 years, and the number ot
persons over 65 years of age hss
Increased probably SO per cent.'
Draw From Poor Areas
The economists said it was most
likely thst ctiies In the future
would draw surplus farm popula
tion from the less fertile areas.
These areas generally have the
highest birth rate and are expect
ed to continue to have the highest.
"Apparently, the people who
will provide. Immediately or even
tually, the surplus youth to the
cities," said the economists, "will
be principally the mountaineers of
the southern Appalachians and the
Ozarks. the less commercial farm
era. of the cotton belt, the miners
of Pennsylvania and West vir
ginia, the hill folk along the Ohio
river and Its tributaries, the pio
neers of the . upper Great Lakes
region, the Mennonites and slm
liar foreign stock of the Dakotas
and Kansas, the Mormons of Utah
and Idaho, and other, mostly
small, and often more-or-less self
sufficient farmers, who have been
partially isolated by their environ
ment or other conditions from the
influences ot modern urban civ
ilization."

HAMBURG. Jan. 29-)-Max
Sqhmellng. one of Germany's
most persistent transatlantic voy
agers, steps Into a German ring
for the first time In more than
two - years tomorrow when he
meets Ben Foord, former British
empire champion. In the second
of a series of tuneup bouts for
his " heavyweight championship
match with Joe Louis this sum
mer, -.-a
(Con tinned from page 1)
is his word which will be final in
Washington. And with a -demo
cratic senator on the job, the of

loses its .potency la political appointments,-
which is quite a blow
to the anti-Martin machine.
February -"will see nearly all
the pussy willows pop in the
spring campaign.- Even Mahoney
win then make his long deferred
decision. He is said to have been
in Portland a week ago to meet
his financial sponsor, "Doc" Rob
inson of Moscow, Idaho, promoter
ot "Psychiana" to the multitudes;
an undertaking he has found very
profitable, and one in which
friends at Washington may prove
of value.
Holman and SneU
Delay Decisions
Rutins Holman is holding back
any decision on the governorship,
frankly waiting on the coalescing
ot opinion. It he finds a genuine
drift of sentiment among republi
cans both rank and file and party
leaders that he should enter the
race for ; governor, he will prob
ably become a candidate, un
daunted by reports of Martin's
Btrength. He would campaign in
the primaries on his record as
state treasurer and his diligence
in protecting the state's interest
in such matters as school lands.
While cautious counselors are
urging Secretary of State Snell
to seek reelection, he gets con
siderable urging to step out for
US senator. The fact that he has
made no announcement is proof
that he is doing a little studying
of the political horoscope and
may seek promotion in the politi
cal field.
The hardy, perennials, Sam
Brown and Peter Zimmerman,
have done some talking directly
or indirectly, the former eyeing
the governorship, the latter
threatening" to run for the US
senate. They will decide during
the coming month whether to
ride the granges" In the vote
round-up. With left wing sent!
ment badly, cracked each would
lack the solid support of four
years ago. J. E. Bennett of Port
land Is trying to run for the sen
ate and hold his commissioner-
ship too.
Representative Mott gives out
word in Washington that while
his course is "safety first" "he
might go for the senate if the
prospect really ' becomes inviting
and Portland support is assured.
The race for congress is still
in the .walking stage. Sheriff
Bark's petition Is being filed, and
Daisy. Bevans, poet laureate of
Jennings' Lodge,, has declared her
intention to run for the office. If
Mott should run for the senate

White Says Fight
For Defense Here
Required by Setup
SEATTLE, Jan. 29-iflV-MaJ.
Gen. . George A. White of Salem,
Ore., commandant of the 41st na
tional guard division, said today
that because the Pacific north
west is "strategically unimport
ant" in war department plans, ex
ceptional efforts were, necessary to
obtain adequate defenses for the
area. .
"It may not be very flattering
to ns," General White told Inter
viewers, "but conquest ot the
northwest by a foreign power
would not be considered import
ant as far as war plans are con
cerned, when compared with the
industrial and -agricultural cen
ters of other regions.
"But it is important to us per
sonally and only by consistent ag
gressiveness can the present in
adequate defenses be improved.

The republican party first, said
Dr. Frank, "must be more sensi
tive. to the human; needs of the
millions than many political pro
grams of the tlast quarter century
have been." j
Secondly, the educator asserted,
the party must "awaken the Am
erican millions to the certain de
struction of self-government in
volved in much of Ihe legislation'
that has, in the last five years,
been pressed for passage by the
congress. The menace to demo
cratic self-government in these
measures has lain, not in the al
leged purpose these measures
sought to serve butt in the admin
istrative mechanisms and powers
which must Inevitably reduce the
courts, the congress the varied
commissions and the people to im
potence." For his third point Dr. Frank
called on the party to "expose the
growing practice in American pol
itics, of which itself may have
been guilty at times, of auctioning
off the country to a succession ot
any highly organized pressure
groups that can muster enough
votes to look Impressive."
Next, he said, "the republican
party must ground its program
for business,, industry, labor end
agriculture on the. economics ot
plenty which will result in more
goods at lower prices to take the
place of the new dear economics
of . scarcity which is resulting In
fewer goods at higher prices and,
for all the ballyhoo attending it,
is leading us away from rather
than toward the abundant life . . .
"Fifth, the republican party
must strike at the growing heresy,
fostered by the administration,
that when a party Is elected to
office by a clear majority every
senator and every representative
must check both his ' conscience
and his ' intelligence at the door,
of congress . . . and thereafter
echo in detail the will and even
the whim of the chief executive.
. . . Unless this heresy Is checked
it Is but a question of time until
none' but spineless puppets, will
give their lives to the public ser
vice." j
