It would Just be funnier than Amos and Andy in one of their hilarious comedies. But with the winter, which is not long away and work hardly started on their projects, they have to turn down a good per cent of them. Why do they do this? you asfc. With all of their five billion dollars where It was handy for them, they have Just found out that there won't be enoiwrh to go around and have enough left to finance another fiasco, commencing the first of Jany. 36. And of course they don't want to run out of pocket money good tlmos cost money In Waihinton, Just the aa-me aa any other place. Representative Frank Hook of Iron- wood, Mich., who gets $833.33 per month, says: "I am not ashamed because' my father, mother and brothers are on the relief roll. I would rather have them on honest relief than becoming thieves." There is one type of congressman that had better be left at home, and T believe that he will, when his peo ple hear what he has to say. If they don't. God pity the hungry people of this U. S. A... if all congressmen were like him. But, thank God, they sre not In his class. We still have lots of good men In congress. All-of . them. ..while at home this summer, will find out that their ser vices will not be wanted any further. If they on't get busy and do some thing for the people. Tf they don't, that pork barrel will be nothing but a shoat keg and noth ing to show for who pulled the chunk out of the hole and let it get Away. P. J. KIRKPATRICK. Star Route, Box 57. September 19.

The l day, as witnessed by this fils patch from Rome: The Italian government today in- j dtcated its probable REJECTION of a league of nations compromise with Ethiopia, reorganized Its tax program to provide for war and shifted thous ands of troops Into Libya because of a threatening attitude on the part of tribesmen." SO, you see, if Great Britain did say to Italy: "If you persist in jumping onto little Ethiopia, we'll knock your block off," Italy Is ap parently in the mood to answer: "All right; go ahead and TRY IT." ON the samedtthe Italian cab inet approves the Issuance of a national loan, "to be written In the great book of public debts." On the debit side, of course. Do I you suppose a corresponding figure, indicating PAYMENT of the debt, will ever be written on the credit side? - - ANOTHER question: If all the costs of all the wars slnee history began were written on one side of the ledger and all the benefits resulting from vara were written on the other, do you suppose the total of the benefits would come anywhere near equaling the total of the costs? Probably not. ETWEEN 125 and 150 British war- OH, no; nothing provocative which Is a nice, long word mean ing "tending to make somebody mad." The British fleet Is probably Just out on a sightseeing trip to the MedU terranean. Isn't diplomacy funnyt VOTERS of Pennsylvania defeat , heavily a proposal to call a con vention and draft a new state con stitution. Governor George H. Earle, a New Deal Democrat, campaigned for the revisionist proposal and compared Pennsylvania's constitution, drafted in 1878. with a "worn-out automobile tire, full of patches," Still. It seems to WORK, and the voters of Pennsylvania appear to have decided that as long as It goes on working they'll KEEP it. Sounds like a sensible decision. B ships are patrolling the Medi terranean In movements which au thoritative quarters which means somebody too big to be quoted, be cause It might get him into trouble frankly label as precautionary. "But," the dispatch goes on, "Brit ish officials were quick to deny that there was anything provocative in Britain's action In assembling this fleet during the present strained re lations between Italy and Ethiopia.'
