On Thursday, members of congress
will open a letter which most of
them will toss In the waste basket.
A few may shed a tear.
The letter reveals that. In another
six months, the economic division of
the federal trade commission, the
only governmental Investigatory body
that can put real teeth Into Its In
vestigations, will be dead.
The division has been the nemesis
of big, bad business, the anathema
of most business men, good and bad.
and the Rock of Gibraltar for. the
group that believes that, In order
to serve the public, you have to let
the government wash dirty linen In
public occasionally.
Counted among Its Investigations
hsve been those of meat packing,
bread baking, public utilities, lum
ber, milk, steel, chain stores, petrol
eum and grain.
The division, will end Its career
because the bureau of the budget
has decided that, when It has com
pleted Investigations It now has
under was;, there would be nothing
more for It to do.
On July 1, 1037, the agency re
ceived an appropriation for $150,000.
It has been running on $300,000 a
year. So It can last only six months.
The supreme court, after fifteen
years' battle in the lower courts, de
cided the division's Investigators
could Investigate legally.
Those who lament the threatened
demise of this once energetic organ
declare that It Is the one body which
could, for instance, find the answer
to such pertinent questions as why
there ts a difference between what
the farmer gets for fi potato and
what you pay for It on the plate.
In other words, Just who gets how
much for your dollar.
The appeal for help from congress
for the economic division comes, log
ically enough, from the head of the
District of Columbia consumer coun
cil, a private, non-profit making or
ganization dedicated to giving the
publlo a square deal.
While the point has been made
and noted that Vice-president Gar
ner hasn't been In one recent Wnite
House conference with administra
tion leaders, his opinion still com
mands plenty of respect at the
White House.
The "eleven man court" bill, still
all dressed up and ready to march
on the scene, wont appear at this
time If the man from Uvalde defin
itely and emphatically says "no."
This bill was the "compromise"
which Mr. Garner waa supposed to
have offered when he arrived on the
Washington scene after Senator Rob

priced car, two rubber trees must be
tapped for a whole year. (Tapping."
you know, la the process by which
the aap la obtained Irom the rubber
tree.)
This wtU give you an Idea of the
Importance of the United State,
which la the world's largest veer ol
rubber, aa a market for countries
that produce rubber.
IK 1000, vhn the automobile In
dustry was a mere Infant, the
United States consumed annually
only 46 million pounds of rubber.
We now use 1288 million pounds
per year.
We are using approximately 3
times a much rubber a we used 37
years ago.
BEFORE 1800, rubber waa a com
parltlvely unimportant raw ma
terial. Then the automobile came
along and made It one of the most
Important of ALL raw matenala.
The West la littered with raw ma
terials that now are comparatively
worthless. Who knows when a new
Industry will come along that will
make these now Insignificant mate
rial Immensely valuable?
FOR millions of years, the various
metals that now are so tremen
dously Important to human pro
gress lay all about, -unnoticed and
unused. Early man made hla tools
and his weapons offllnt.
Then some prehistoric man, more
observant and more thoughtful than
hla fellows,, built his fire on copper
ore. Noting the red metal that
flowed from the rocks and hardened
aa It cooled, he GOT AN IDEA.
Out of this Idea came the use ot
metal, which totally transformed the
conditions under which human
beings live.
GETTING back to rubber.
The automobile Is a delicate
piece of machinery. In Its Infancy
It waa far more delicate than It Is
now. It couldn't stand rude Jolting
over rough roads and goodness
knows the roads were rough back In
those days.
Then somebody HAD AN IDEA
and made tires of rubber, and these
rubber tires cushioned the jolting
and enabled the automobile to stand
up under road shocks and deliver
consistently satisfactory performance
day in and day out for years,
IDEAS are the most valuable ol
all human resources.

SLUMP 10 P.C.;
MARRIAGES UP
RENO, Nev. (UP) A drop of 10
per cent In Reno's $3,000,000 a year
divorce Industry and an Increase of
10 per cent In Its likewise lucrative
marriage license trade tiurlng the
first six months of 1037 have been
noted.
Divorce decrees, usually averaging
one to every three marriage licenses,
declined from 1.241 In the first half
of 1936 to 1,118 in the same period
this year. At the same time marriage
licenses. Issued monthly to eloping
California couples, rose from 3,992 to
3,367.
Increasing liberality or divorce laws
in other states and Nevada s severe
winter were offered by Reno lawyers
as reasons for the decline. They be
lieved, however, thst Nevada will
continue to attract the 'fashionable
trade" through its absence of the re
quirement that corroborative evi
dence be presented at a divorce trial.
"Florida, Idaho and other states
may cut C sir residence requirements
to match evada's six weeks," one at
torney said, "but as long as we are
only state with this advantage, we
will continue to get cases In which
prominent persons are seeking to un
tie their marital bonds with a min
imum of embarrassment and pub
licity."
A lawyer explained that Nevada
laws permit sealing of all papers In
a case testimony, depositions, prop
erty and custody sgreements except
the bare details as listed in the com
plaint. Cases may be heard behind
locked courtroom doors, with news
papermen and visitors excluded
without extra charge.
Reno's fame as a Gretna Green for
eloping Catlfornlsn couples Is based
on the fact that Nevada permits them
to avoid California's three-day "gin
marriage' law that requires marriage
applicants to wait three days after
finni notices of Intention to wed.

$2.50 PER WEEK
AVERAGE OUTLAY
ON FOODJN U. S.
New England Runs Highest
Grocery Bill Pacific
Coast Budgets Are More
Inclined To Full Diets.
WASHINGTON (UP) The average
American family spends about $2. B0
a week per person for food, accord
ing to a survey by the bureau of
home economics of the department
of agriculture.
The weekly food bill ranged from
86 cents to $7 per person last year
among 20,000 families surveyed In all
parts of the United States, the bur
eau reported.
New England families tend to
spend more money for food than
families in other regions, the sur
vey showed. Southeastern families,
largely because of the number of
negroes, spend the least.
Pacific coast food budgets are
more likely to provide adequate
diets than In other regions of the
country, largely because of lower
food costs, the bureau said.
Below $3.65 Average
Three-fourths of the small city
and village families In New England
spent less than 93.66 per capita
weekly for food during 1036, the
survey showed. The bulk of this
group spent between $2.30 and $3.65
per week.
In contrast with New England,
negro families In the small cities
and villages of the southeast spend
the least for food of any group cov
ered In the study.
Three-fourths of the negro fam
ilies In this area spent less than
$1.86 per person per week and the
bulk spent between 85 cents and
$1.85. In some rural sections the
average was as low as 66 cents per
week per person.
The studv Indicated that small
city families In the northeast prob
ably would require, at 1936 prices.
a weekly per capita food expenditure
of about $2.70 to obtain an Inex
pensive but adequate diet.
About $2.60 In the Pacific region.

equslly good diet, the bureau astd.
Adequate Diet Assured -These
amounts would buy, the
bureau suggested, "adequate diet at
minimum cost" In the different
areas.
The differences from region to
region and between the racial groups
are due In part to differences In re
tall food prices paid and in part to
the traditional food selection habits
of the families," the bureau said.
The figures on food expenditures
In these' different regions show that
70 percent of the families studied in
the Pacific region spent enough for
food to obtain a fully adequate diet,
according to the bureau.
About 65 percent of the New Eng
land f ft mil tea spent enough to ob
tain art adequate diet, about 60 per
cent of the southeast white, but
only about 40 percent of tbe negro
families. It was said.
In New England the middle half
of small city and village families
spent from $2.30 to $3.66 per week
per person, and the lowest quarter
spent $1.25 to $2.30. Farm families
In the same groups Bpent from $2.10
to $3.10 and from $1.26 to $2.10.
Low Is 65 Cents
In the north central states tbe
middle half of small city and village
groups spent from $1.90 to $3.10, and
the lowest quarter from 65 cents to
$1.90. Farm families In the same
groups spent $1.75 to $2.70 and from
65 cents to $1.75.
Western middle half families rang
ed frdm $2.10 to $3.25 In the middle
half and from $1.25 to $2.10 In the
lowest quarter. . Farm families In
the same groups spent from $1.75 to
$2.80 and from $1.25 to $1.76.
Pacific coast families in the mid
die half spent from $2.10 to $3.25
and In the lowest quarter from $1.25
to $2.10. Farm groups spent from
$2.10 to $2.90 and from $1.25 to
$2.10.
Southeastern -whites In the middle
half spent from $1.65 to $2.80 and
negroes in the same classification
from 86 cents to $1.85. Lowest quar
ter expenditure for whites was from
65 cents to $1.65 and for negroes
rrom eo cents to 85 cents.
Among rural families in the south
east whites spent from $1.35 to $2.80
in the middle half and from 65 cents
to $1.35 In the lowest quarter. Ne
groes spent from 75 cents to 91.60
In the middle half and from 65 to
75 cents in the lowest quarter.
All food costs were computed, not
only on the basis of foods purchased
but also to the money value of all
foods, including those home pro
duced. In the case of farm families
this cost was computed largely on
estimates.
