Obviously It speaks for Itself: "Secretary of Agriculture Wallace has been railed various things by those Who don't like him a theo rist, a dreamer, a radical, a socialist, and what have you? . Let some of his critics produce a clearer and sounder definition of what the economic alms of this country SHOULD BE than the fol lowing excerpt from one of his re cent speeches: " "Our national economic goal simply must be Increased, balanced production of the things we all really need and want, at prices low enough so consumers can buy. yet high enough so producers can stay on the Job, and with Income so dis tributed that no one ahsll be pre vented from participating in con sumption except those who 'refuse to work. This is the goal we all de sire to reach, and we can permit only two qualifications: One. that It must be reached without further Injury to our national resources; and two, that It must be reached by our traditional democratic pro cesses'," We were Interested to know what these "traditional democratic pro cesses' are. Will the editorial mind transcribe these democratic pro cesses Into words, and how they are worked? They may illuminate the awakening negative democratic mind In it search for processes to adjust Itself to the Ideas and the Ideala to be attained by the new democratic order Immediately ahead. Our most earnest desire la that you provide us with light upon this Important subject. Mr. Editor. We would appreciate your contri bution to the true science of the democratic action of lmpcrlally mlnded America. OEO. IAN MAXWELL. 21fl Iaurrt St., Medford, Ore.

CROCHETING BAR KEEPER GETS GRIST OF FAN MAIL 50-50 basis, wrote MILWAUKEE. Dec. 13 (AP) Harry Haberman. the tattlnir bar tender who lifts a barrel of beer without battlne an eve. took tim nut from his Christmas sewing today to answer fan mall. It all started when the news was i spread that Harry, a former star athlete, does fine needlework when not busy serving drinks at hta Wauwatosa tavern. They read about Harry In West Boylston, Maas., In Fresno, Calif., Reading, Pa., Mc Mlnnville. Ore., Cleveland, O., and Miami and wrote to him. A "Young widow" In Arizona wanted Harry to live with her and her mother on their ranch, where 11 three could "crochet and knit In contentment." A New York night club wanted to put him In an act there. Harry didn't care, much for that one It would cheapen his work, he mused. Another letter offered Harry a chsnce to no Into business, manu facturing the "Hsbermsn crochet ball holder." Its inventor had the patent; Harry the fame. Perhaps they could get together on the Inventor. "They call me up In the middle of the night to ask me about my needle work," said Harry. "Letters from all over the country ask for my pat terns. They introduced me at a show and they come to see me crochet and got my autograph. "They are running me ragged." he added, "if they don't stop pretty soon, I'll never- get my Christmas presents or bed spread finished." Harry's bed spread Is his pride. One fourth done after two years of work, he estimates It will be worth $1500 when completed.

Under the new set-up the state would bear half the expense Incur red by counties in administering re lief, he explained. It was the general opinion of the conference, he said, that the counties should continue to administer relief funds. Judge Day also attended a confer ence of tlmbermen who discussed the further acquisition of forest land by the federal government.
