A REVOLUTIONARY PLAN
The expected bill providing for the creation of valley
authorities on the Tennessee valley autnoruy pattern nas ueen
introduced in the national house by Representative Jonn &
Rankin, of Mississippi. It proposes the setting up of eight au
thnririps in addition to the T VA. Thev are the Atlantic Sea-
hnard. thn Oeat Lnkes-Ohio vallev. the Missouri valley, the
Arkansas vallev including the lower Mississippi, the South
western, the Columbia valley including rivers flowing into
the Pacific, the California and the 'Colorado valley.
Western newspapers coming to our notice have as yet
paid little attention to this valley authority business. We rise
now to predict that it will become one of the great issues
of the present congress and that as knowledge develops
: more and more groups will take a stand against the authority
plan. We are even rash enough to believe that members of the
Farmers union, of state grange organizations ana ot tne L4U,
now reported as favoring the plan, will come to recognize the
dangers of its totalitarian nature and turn against it.
As time passes we shall have much to say in this column
on the subject though no more, we trust, than it warrants and
that you will find of interest. Proposing as it does czars to
control all the water resources of the nation the plan touches
every one of us. It is revolutionary. If it becomes effective the
48 states will become subordinate in many fields to the nine
authorities. We cannot learn too much about every intimate
detail.
OUR FIVE CENT'S WORTH
Though, we gather, the argument has been in progress for
some time only now has it come to our attention. The argu
ment, that is, that started when the Oregonian criticised the
grammar of General MacArthur's phrase spoken when he ar
rived in Australia irom liutaan nearly three years ago, "I will
return." The Portland paper insists that the proper word
would have been "bh.aH" rather than "will." Well, Fowler
the Oxford dictionary man, we mean says that "In future
and conditional statements that include an expression of the
speaker's wish, intention, menace . . . promise . . . etc. the
first person has will, the second and third persons shall."
If there were no other support for the position it seems
to us that that suggestion of menace the MacArthur menace
.-proves that "will" was the right word. Then there is the
support given by Adams Sherman Hill, grammarian and
rhetorician of the top rank. William Lloyd Garrison said, "I
will be heard" and MacArthur, "I will return." One was, the
other did.
There's our five cent's worth.

Ignoring a recommendation
from Edward N. Scheibeiling, na

The post had expunged from

they owed nllcglence to Japan
rather than to the United States.
The action brought a nationwide
wave of protest from religious

THE STORY: At the age of 10,
Frederic Chopin's dexterity at the j
pianoforte has already made him
a person of note in the little Pol
ish village of Zclanzowa Wola.
Count Skarbek, owner of the vil
lage, has requested that he play In
a public concert at Warsaw. Pro
fessor lMsner, r rederlc s teacher,
and the whole Chopin family are
looking forward to the event.

THE I.ETTKK
Prof. Jozef Eisner, his baggy
clothes dripping wet, stepped over
the threshold. If Mamma Chopin
had not held him off he would
have embraced her in his rain
soaked arms.
'Good day!" His face was one
big smile. "Madame Chopin, good
day!" Then he nodded to Mon
sieur Chopin, who had only this
moment come to the door. "Nico
las! Izabela, good day! Your sls
ters,littlo one.are they In health?"
"They're in Warsaw," Izabela
said.
Josef Eisner closed his lips,
nodded, then with a quick ges
ture, as Nicolas Chopin bolted
the door against the driving rain,
he said: "What a pupil!" His head
nodded In the direction of Fritz
ehen's music room. "SUperb!
Yes?"
Nicolas Chopin didn't say any
thing but his expression said;
piamiy enough: "Who thinks of
music on a day like this?"
The Professor smacked his lips.
His cheeks were wet, the rain wa
ter dripping even from his eye
brows. He was groping In his
coat pocket for something.
"And how are you this fine day.
my little one?" he said to Iza
bela. still groping in his pocket.
Iabela answered stiffly: "Very
well, thank you. But it Isn't a
fine day."
-"Ten, tch."
"Jozef, you are an Idiot!" Mam
ma Chopin said.
Monsieur Chopin had been roll
Ing his tongue in his cheek. He
said: "A fine day for a straw hat
and slippers."
What is that, a straw hat?
Please, please, Jozef Eisner Is not
such a fool. He looked at his hat.
Why it was, of all things, his Tine
straw one, but hardly fine any
longer. He looked at his feet.
Eisner, what is the matter? Have
you gone out of your head com
pletely? For his feet, of course,
were in slippers. Tch, tch. So
many things a man must think of
in these days. How can you do

light was better. Mamma Chopin
took the paper. She opened It,
read, while Eisner looked on, his
own face beaming". Mamma Cho
pin read from the top of the paper
to the very bottom.
"I don't understand it," she
said, when she had finished. :
"Tch, tch." i
She handed the paper to her
husband. "Maybe you can under
stand It."
Nicolas Chopin held the paper
away from his eyes.
"Don't you see it?" said Jozef
Eisner.
"Give mo a minute, Jozef, and
I will see what there is to be
seen."
"Now do you see?"
"No, Jozef, I do not see."
Eisner wagged his head from
side to side, by way of showing
his disgust. "From Paris," he
said. "Isn't that true?"
"True."
"Who sent it?"
Nicolas Chopin looked at the
letter again. "I make out the
name to be Pleyel."
"Pleyel," Eisner said. "Louis
Pleyel!"
"Who is Louis Pleyel?"
"Madame. Nicolas. Please,
please, my dear warm friends
Louis Pleyel let me ask who
owns the finest concert hall, the
greatest publishing house in
Paris?"
"Is it Louis Pleyel?" asked Nic
olas Chopin calmly.
"Who else? It is something,
let mo tell you, to get a letter
from Louis Pleyel. Is it a cold let
ter? Look! How is it signed- It is
signed, as you see, 'Respectfully,
Henry Dupont, Secretary to Louis
Pleyel.' Ah, don't laugh, don't
smile. Who is Eisner in far-off
Warsaw that Louis Pleyel should
have his own personal secretary
write 'respectfully' to him from
Paris? The loiter is still warm. It
came in the early post. It reaches

that same occasion, 'Eisner,' he
said, T shall never forget you.'

Mamma Chopin said coldly:
"You wrote to him about Fritz
chen?" Eisner's' eye lighted. "Did you
think' I would be afraid to do
that? Not Jozef Eisner. Yes, in
deed, I sat myself down and wrote
a warm letter to my good friend
Louis Pleyel. Well, you see what
he says. It is all there."
He now had the letter and was
holding It to his eyes. He read it
aloud, although undoubtedly he
could have repeated every word
without the slightest reference
to it.

Washington
Column
By Peter Edson
(NBA Staff Correspondent)
Washington, D. C Only a wel
ter of conflicting impressions and
unanswered questions comes
from sitting In on the two-day
Wallace-Jones hearings before the
senate commerce committee. No
one can judge this sanely. It is
an issue which -will be decided
only by prejudices and emotions.
Partisan followers of the two men
cannot even talk about it ration
ally. The committee is supposed to
be deciding merely whether it will
divorce the department of com
merce from RFC and the other
federal loan agencies built up by
Jesse Jones in the last 13 years.
Actually these senators there
were more than 30 of them pres
ent and they lapped up every
word With far more attention than
they ever show during debate on
the floor of congress are trying
to judge the business ability of
Henry Wallace, What is the com
bined business experience of the
30 senators? Chairman Bailey
was for 14 years editor of the
Biblical Recorder before he be
came a collector of Internal reve
nue and lawyer In North Carolina.
Burton was mayor of Cleveland.

ming rancher, Vandenberg a

was a Texas flour salesman. What
are the rights of these to pass on
who is a big enough business
man? Answer: These are the duly
elected representatives of the peo
ple and through them the people
pass judgment . on how things
shall be done.
But what about this letter of
I the president's to Jesse Jones, in
; which the president said that Wal
i lace thinks he could do the great
j est amount of good in the depart
ment oi commerce? is tnis just
getting even with Jesse Jones in
the belief that it was lie, Jones,
who inspired the Texas revolt
against the fourth term? Or is
this another kiss of death letter
like the one Roosevelt wrote Dem
ocratic National Chairman Bob
Hannegan at the Chicago conven
tion, consigning Wallace to the
political wolves? j
A strange character this Wal
lace. Is he being vindicative in !
wanting to take Jones' job away j
from him? Is- this sweet revenge!
for their last bout, which Wallace
lost?
-
Wallace, In fact, again outlines
the president's eight-point bill of ,
economic rights. The right to a
job, to food, to a home, to pro-:
ciuce, to buy and sell, to health, to
old age security, to education. j
Yet Senator Bailey asks Wal-!
lace shrewd and pertinent ques
tions. How's he going to get all
those things-? Wallace's answers'
aren't sharply to the point. He
missed here.
This is the battle of the century I
the next century the next gen-!
eration at any rate. The theme I
song for this two-day side-show!
might well have been, "Where do :
we go from here?" Into new fields
with Wallace, or back over the
conservative paths trod by Jones? j
