ON BASKET US!
Seventy families, numbering mcrf
than 350 Individuals, have to far been
accepted by the Salvation Army for
their Christmas baakft list. . avl
namea continued to come In today.
The telephone buzwd ateadlly. vari
ous citizens having located another
needy family while others, filling with
the Christmas spirit of giving, phoned
to make donations of supplies.
Seventy-five basKeta have already
been filled end are awslting only the
addition of perishables, such as meat,
butter, etc.. before delivery next Mon
day. As new names are turned In,
other baskets will be filled and pie
pared for delivery, and Captain Dur
ham Is emphatic in Ills statement
that the Salvation Army will not pel
mlt any really deserving family to go
without a Christmas basket.
Namea will be received up until
next Monday evening and although
the majority of the bags will be de
livered on Christmas Eve, the Salva
tion Army Is prepared to deliver aom
baskets on Christmas day, providing
names are sent In too late for de
livery on Monday.
The filling of the Chrlatmaa bass
of the Salvation Army is somewhat
of a modern day miracle. Without
any funds Bet aside for thia purpose
and without knowing from where the
money for the purchase of supplies
will come, the Army each year an
nounces that It will care for every
needy family brought to its attention.
Without any special solicitation of
funds, other than through the kettles
on the street, money Is always forth
coming, and it Is many a year alritC
citizens of the community have fai.ei!
to provide sufficient to fill the baga.
Captain Durham reporta that con
tribution through the Christmas ket
tles have exceeded those of last yoat
by a few dollars. The kettles will
be on the street tomorrow and Mon
day, and It Is hoped that they will be
"kept boiling" right up until Mond.iy
evening.
Contributions of vegetables are
needed quite badly. Po ntoes, carrots,
squash or any other fresh vegetables
will be greatly appreciated. Anyone
having these, or other supplies, to
give, may telephone 356. and & car
will be sent to pick '.hem up.
Due to the fact that many otnor
organizations are providing toys and
a Chrlatmaa tree for poor kiddles, the
Salvation Army will not have a
Christmas tree thla year, but any
poor children brought to their at
tention and who are not being pr
Tided for In any other way, will be
given toys and other Christmas cheer
such as candy, nuts, fruit, etc.

support a post-war embargo on dyes.
In a statement. Pierre DuPont, mu
nitions manufacturer, advocated a '
study by the wisest minds" to devise
practicable plan to take excess
profit out of war. 1
DuPont old the Associated Press:
"There Is a popular demand that
In event of another war the Indus
tries of our country should be mobil
ized to serve the nation's need with
out excessive compensation. I be
lieve that this Is both sound and
Just. The DuPont company has al
ready gone on record aa favoring the
elimination of excess profits In time
of war.
Must Regulate All
'The soundness of the principle
must be supported by an equal sound
ness In the practice. The regula
tion of wartime profits must apply
to every business and every individ
ual. . It must not impair the effi
ciency, productivity and inventive
ness of American Industry. We shall
require more from our industry rath
er than less In a military emergency.
"The development of such a plan
will, therefore, require exhaustive
study by the wisest minds in busi
ness, finance, military affairs and
government. By undertaking this
study now a solution can be devised
which' will avoid hasty and ineffi
cient measures later.
Peaco Troducts Rise In War
"In the last war the prices which
soared the highest were not the war
product like munitions, but the
peace products of wheat, cotton and
the like, especially those relating to
the food and clothing supply.
"The recapture of elimination of
profits on agricultural products In
excess of peace time earnings will be
difficult to regulate. I cit these
merely as one of the difficulties which
legislation will have to consider.
"It must be remembered that dur
ing the war the needs of national
defense are paramount to any other
consideration production must be
stimulated, not curtained.
"Should war emergency again arise
we should be ready for it."

which, it Is hoped, will provide i

Wireless Operator C. VnnZadelhogg.
Although the exact cause of the
tragedy was not known, air officials
here expressed belief It had been
struck by lightning. The last radio
message from the doomed craft, re
ceived early yesterday, said It was In
difficulty during a storm near Rut
ba Wells and asked Us position.
More than a score of British planes
and armored cara had been pressed
Into a hunt for the liner.
Unaware of the fate which had
overtaken their countrymen, two vet
eran Dutch pilots hopped off from
Amsterdam this morning to aid in
the search. They were O. J. Reysen
dorfer, who was pilot for the late
Van Lear Black, Baltimore, Md., pub
lisher, and Commander SUlevis.
Exactly one month ago today 30,
000 persons cheered "the flying ho
tel" when it returned to Amsterdam
after winning the handicap race in
the Melbourne derby.
Its pilots on that flight, K. D. Par
mentler and J. J. Moll, were honored
by Queen Wllhelmlna. The plane was
second in the derby.
Representatives of the Dutch Royal
Air lines and of the British Imperial
airways left Baghdad by air for the
scene of the accident, 250 miles away,
to Investigate.
The scene of the crash, midway be
tween the coast of Palestine and
Baghdad, is a desolate one.
Sharp ridges rise out of great
stretches of sandy desert, criss-crossed
by narrow gorges which make a
forced landing almost certain death.
Heavy rains, which had hindered
the land search, made a landing
doubly dangerous.
Pilots of the ship had hoped to
reach Batavla In time to deliver
Christmas mail and presents to col
onists. They sought to make the
flight In five days, establishing a
record. The plane left Cairo a few
hours before the crash.
two later, killed two unlicensed dogs
as they started a raid.
It costs Jackson county close to
$1000 yearly, to pay the claims of
sheep killed by dogs.
Thft sheep-killing by dogs the past
four months haa been more extensive
than In previous years. Sheepmen
have guarded their flocks and a
number of dogs have been slain.
Dog-owners claim, that coyotes are
to blame for the raids. Sheepmen
claim that a coyote operates In hill
areas, almost exclusively, and seldom
comes onto the floor of the valley.
Police dogs, and doga with strains of
that breed, are also blamed. It Is
claimed that once a dog kills a sheep,
he never haa any other object in life,
but to be a sheep-killer.

"Of course, many of the plants
there are municipal plants which
have been partially amortized, mak- ,
ing low rates possible. We don't ex-
pect consumer costs will get as low '
as Canada's for some time."
He said that rate reduction through
loans to " municipalities to build ,
plants Is "one of the results hoped
for."
City Rates Too HlRh.
He would not name the cities
where rates are regarded as too high,
but he said:
"1 think that analysis will show
that the rates in most of the larger :
cities are excessive."
Secretary Ickes said he was told :
Mayor La Guardla would Immediately :
begin rounding up his plans fcr a
municipal plant for formal presenta
tlon to PWA. j
Senator Dickinson (R.. Iowa) as- ,
uerted that if PWA lent money to
New York for such a purpose it
would be exceeding its function. j
"There Is a public service commls- '
sion In New York," he said. "If the I
rates are too high why doesn't the j
commission adjust them? Why did j
not the public service commission I
act when President Roosevelt was
governor?"

Britain to Probe Also
Ths multlon Investigate Joyfully
received word of the appointment of
a British commission to Inquire into
the activities of English munitions
companies. 1 '
Committee members unanimously
expressed the hope the British In
quiry would be "bona fide'' and not a
-whitewash."
The former chairman of the war
Industries board recounted for the
commute the difficulties encountered
during the last war In obtaining tin
for war and industrial purposea.
"If we want to prepare ouraelvea
lrom the standpoint of a atrateglc
Dosltlon," Baruch asserted, "I think
we ought to buy tin Just like we I
invest In a battleship and keep it In j
torage."
Baruch haa been appointed by
President Roosevelt as head of a com- ,
mlttee to draw up legislation to take
the profit out of war. j
Chairman McReynoldl (D., Tenn.) j
recalled suggestions that the United i
States accept tin in payment of war
debta, and asked Baruch's reaction.
Tin for Debts
"By taking tin for debts, I think j
we would be helping things." Baruch j
answered. j
Meanwhile. Chairman Nye of the
munitions commltwe said a letter by I
John R. Raskob, placed In evidence j
yesterday, ahowed the Inspiration f or
organization of the American Liberty j
league.
Nye referred to a letter written
last month by the former chairman
of the Democratic national commit
tee to a friend who had protested
against the trend of the Roosevelt
administration.
Raskob. in the letter to R. R. M.
Carpenter retired DuPont vice
president, said:
"You haven't much to do and I
know of no one that could better
take the lead In trying to Induce the
DuPont and General Motors groups,
followed by other big Industrlea. to
definitely organize to protect society
from the suffering which la bound to
endure If we allow communistic ele
ments to lead the people to believe
that are business men are crooks, not
to be trusted, and that no one should
be allowed to get rich.
Antl-Ked Orjanlratlon Needed
"There should be some very defi
nite organization that would come
out openly with some plan for edu
cating the people to the value of
encouraging peop' ,0 work: ur
see people to get rich; showing the
fallacy of communism in Its efforts
to tear down cur capital structure. "1
