PAGE FIVE ' $150,000,000 CUT IH FEDERAL COSTS WAITS HOOVER PEN WASHINGTON, Jun 30 (API President Hoover today signed Into law the much debated and battle scarred national economy bill, esti mated to aave around $150,000,000 In government expenditures. Famous Radio Broadcast Troup to Perform Here VAL VALENTE AND NOTED ORCHESTRA WASHINGTON, June 30. (AP) The $150,000,000 economy bill wu out of the way and relief slowly being moulded Into Its final form today as congress plugged along Its legisla tive path. A 35 to 11 vote In the senate yes terday ended the dispute over the measure to cut federal expenses $150,000,000 next year. This was a re versal of the senate's previous posi tion, marked a concession to the house on controverted provisions and left final action up to President Hoo ver. At the same time, conferees on the $3,300,000,000 Garner - Wagner relief bill attacked the remaining and Im portant differences between house and senate measures. They had be hind them an agreement that $200, 000,000 should be loaned to states by the reconstruction finance corpora f, tlon on the basis of population and $110,000,000 distributed by President Hoover as he sees fit. This latter provision had the ap proval of the administration and was Included in the measure Introduced by Speaker Garner and passed by the house. The senate, however, had pro posed simply that $300,000,000 be loaned to states on the population basis. Additional progress was made In the drive to get essential appropria tions bills on the lawbooks by mid night tomorrow although senate lead ers doubted that all would be there when the new fiscal year begins, Consequently, some of them believed congress could not adjourn until about next Wednesday. The economy bill put before the president Included the payless one month furlough plan that he advo cated for government employes. It applied drastic pay cuts Inserted by the house ranging from 8 1-3 to 20 per cent on salaries of workers who make more than $10,000. The $10,000-year members of house and senate will take 10 per cent slashes and get reduced traveling al lowances. The speaker and vlce-presl dent, who make $15,000, will lose 15 per cent while the president and others whose pay Is fixed by the constitution would be allowed to re turn to the treasury as much as they choose. F E That the Fourth of July Is no holi day to the dog population, and fir ing of firecrackers a decided annoy ance to Fldo, was the content of the message yesterday by Mrs. Sid Rich ardson of the Jackson County Hu mane soclty, in a plea to dog owners to spare their animals the annoy ance by keeping them out of the path of the celebration. Persons with dogs are asked by the humane society to keep them at home, or on a leash, to avoid acci dents when the celebration noise is at Its height. For proof of a dog's Intense fear of firecrackers, Mrs. Richardson refer red to the recent death of one of Charley Palm's valuable dogs. The dog was walking with his master, when someone nearby lighted fire cracker. Overcome with fright, the dog dashed Into the street and was hit by a car. if ' f ta 'if,- ' 1 ': my f?A . f-Ku. irfrfa- ST, fitted!

OF A strong competitor of old mother hens in the hatching game is the sun Itself, according to the story told yes terday by Ike Dunford, Jackson county Jailer. At the Dunford farm near the city a few days ago, a Rhode Island Red hen, which had hovered her eei?s almost the allotted time, fell short of her task by dying. She was car ried away and the eggs left undis turbed and uncovered. The next day tre children, drawn to the nest by chirping, found several chickens hopping about sans shells. Two days latr a second expedition found the rest of the brood well on the way out of the epss. Portraits of duitjctioa. The Peas ley, opp, HoUj (beau;, Politics, Synonym for Devil To the Editor: Tour editorials, always good, are getting better. You are amenable to; change, for which you are to be con-1 gratulated. One of the best things you have given us 1 na late Issue, I expressing disgust with POLITICS. Well, so am I disgusted. But maybe; you do not mean what I mean by the: word; maybe you mean Partylsm, but non-party politics is no better than party politics. They had that in the Dakotae and it was but little If any better than the old kind. Non-party-Ism Is not minus non-politics. We would have Just as much, perhaps no better politics without a party as with one. Politics, as defined by the Lexicographers and as defined by the Courts through court activities dif fer materially. The first defines it as "The art of government or the gov erning of public affairs." Begging the pardon of the Lexicographers, we as sert this definition will not stand the acid test of criticism. Governing a family, a school, & church, or a lodge is not politics. The first la paternal Ism, the last Is' fraternallsm, none Is political, governing of none of them brings forth politics. The Courts definition or interpre tation of politics strongly Implies that It Is, "That social condition that arises when the Court recognizes that It is the legal right and duty of the government to use his POLICE powers, the army and navy, if need arises, to enforce exploitation of the workers or laborers for the benefit of the non-workers and to protect the exploiters and beneficiaries from those whom they exploit." If this is not the correct definition, it at least is the way it works out. in practice. In my vocabulary, politics and devil are synonyms. As society has a devil of a time getting equity why should they not be synonyms? The exploita tion mentioned above Is made pos sible because a few owns the things they must have to make a living, re sult: industrial slavery due to ln-dustrlo-lsndlordlsm, which Is succes sor of chattel slavery, feudalisms or serfdom, exists or have existed in and Is supported by POLITICS. The evils of one are the evils of all. Their roots reach into m'llltaryism. Hence: peace and politics are lncompatable. Politics hinders any beneficial re forms made abcrtive any regulation of saloon Um In the days when John Barlycorn reigned: makes a Joke of the 18th amendment and a farce cf the Volrtead act. It has ever opposed true Christianity but smiles upon Pagano-Chrlstlanlty. le. modern ec clesiastic Ism. The only secular government that is non-polltlcal Is the League of Na tions. It. the League, has no army or navy to enforce ths edicts of the World Court. Said Court Is where the League lives and in which she func tions. Hence: the League Is the only visible government that g'.ves hope for permanent peace, not politics. More power to her, when she func tions she brinz for peare. Looking backward over the p; six months, we are wondrrlng If the League ha not been a great fartor in bringing peace In war-torn Eastern Asia. It Icokn that way. doejin't It? You nry 'remember that I stuck to the League through the dark days of last Feb ruary. Like It or not, we will always have politics with us as long as Govern ments have political characteristics We assert that said governments will have political characteristics as long as they use their police powers to enforce exploitation of the masses for the benefit of the indua trio -land lords. Such governments always have and always will persecute Christians, socialists and industrialists, all anti- mill tan t peoples. As long as men turn to the enemies of the above three, we will have poll tics and the evils thereof. Politics, as defined and Interpreted by the Courts, as mentioned above lams everything It touches and it touches everything. All who love righteous ness should hate it with a bitter hat red. Defining it a little differently but shorter. It means: Men living off of each other or Industrie-commer cial canaballsm.

AS I'SDESIKAM.E Cl'STOM By Alice J ml so n Peale Every morning promptly at 7 Nancy appears In the doorway of her mother's room, a favorite book under her arm and a beaming smile upon her face. "Mav I come Into your' bed?" she asks, but without waiting for an answer ahe slips between the covers, snueelea close to her mother and says. "Now read to me.M There follows a half hour during which Nancy lies quite stlU and hap py and listens to her mother's voice, But getting up is hard. "Why do we haw to get up so early?. It isn't time yet, I'm sure It isn't.' Each time another must coax, ex plain, and finally lth some severity Insist upon the gettlng-up and dress ing process. And then mother Is busy about a multitude of responsibilities and does not see her little girl until late In the evening. What Is the effect of all this upon Nancy? The moments she spends with her mother in the morning are undoubt edly the most satisfying and happy ones In the entire day. Only at this time does her mother give her love and attention. The feelings which the child then experiences are a very Infantile sort a sense of warmth, pleasure and se curity in the mere physical nearness of her mother a kind of satisfaction which should have been left behind with babyhood. Thus the love of her mother does not serve as a stepping stone to new interests, new relationships, new ac tivities. Nancy's mother would be wiser If she saw to it that the little morning tete-a-tete no longer occurred and if instead she took time each day In which to play actively with her child and to offer encouragement to every new avenue of development. WASHINGTON, June 30 (AP) Hard-boiled top sergeants started to day to whip the oonus seeking army Into a military unit. Under orders of Walter W. Walters, commander in chief, the men drilled and paraded under a hot sun. The drill period was one of the conditions demsnded by Waters when asking for "unlimited powers." Police kept a strict watch on the encampment to see that this author ity was not wielded to the disadvan tage of the men. Sharp words passed last night be tween Waters and Palham D. Gl af ford, police superintendent, over the commander's threat to transport to the District of Columbia's line any man who did not co-operate with him. WASHINGTON, June 30.
