The last time I saw him his face was white. "They are sending eighty German war prisoners Czechs and Germans and Anstrians back to Hitler from Spain," he said. "Can you not stop them?" aaa He had no money; no words; no country. "And I have come here when America has no more use for European culture," he said with clear awareness. a a -a If he had died in Auatria or Switzerland perhaps I should not hare felt it so much. Only the poet's noire ends receive the message with undiluted shock, from near or far. But it was Just up the street where he hanged himself. In a New York hotel room. Why did no mes sage come to me saying, "Tele phone him!" Saying, "Ask him to eome around . . . to come around and talk." aaa They will say that Hitler killed him. That is true enough. But commend him not to hate, who had In him no steely power to hate,. His fate was to love the world and mankind, and most unhap pily. Copyright,' 1939, New York Tri bune, Inc.

Dairy Farm Value Increase Is Seen Values of dairy farms will in crease as a result of tbe latest milk control board order which will tie retail milk quotas to the property more irrevocably, Fred C. Klaus of the Dairy Cooperative association advised members of the Salem Realty board in an ad dress at the group's luncheon Fri day. Klaus explained that the quo tas, after June 1, could be trans ferred only with' the land and dairy herd when these properties were sold or leased. Another changehowever involves the sur render of a quota when It Is not filled, necessitating transfer be fore the deadline of quotas which producers cannot fill in the slack milk production season. Hereto fore the sale or leasing of such quotas has been a custom vigor ously condemned by critics of the milk control law. Klaus explained that In soma cases, local ordinances or unwise) acts on the part of milk board agents have brought the law un warranted criticism. There is no attempt by the board to control the one-cow dairy, he mentioned.
