It is because : we VOTE for the WRONG KIND of men. I NE of the things wrong with j congress is admirably Ulus-1 trated by the vote of Representa tive Angell (of the Multnomah county, Oregon, district) on this pay increase. He voted against it because (he said) he felt that if members of congress are to get a raise lower-paid employees of government should get a raise first. Maybe he meant it. But it would have been interesting to see what he would have done if his had been the deciding vote. As it was, he knew the bill was going to pass and so he might as well get the credit of voting against it because he was GO ING TO GET THE RAISE ANY WAY. One of Omar Khayyam's fa mous lines advises: "Ah, take the cash and let the credit go. nor heed the music of a distant drum." Angell goes Omar one better and takes BOTH cash and credit That is a basic form of insin cerity that has always been far too common in congress. In these days, as never before, we need WHOLLY SINCERE men there. Pure-blooded Indians consti tute more than 33 per cent of the entire population of Mexico today. Title Company Names Bechen Haarby B.

More Hikes In Prospect For Foods (Continued From Page One) this time of a flour subsidy which lapsed July 1, and from "the fact that the price of wheat hus gone above June ceilings." There are no price controls at present on wheat or other basic grains. To compensate, OPA raised millers' flour ceilings $1.11 a hundred pounds east of the Rocky mountains and $1.24 on the west coast. This boosts re tail flour ceilings at least a cent a pound, the agency said. While OPA was pushing up ceilings, the price decontrol board invited consumer groups and industry representatives to air their views on whether ceil ings should be restored after August 20 on meats, dairy prod ucts, grains, cottonseed and soy beans. The board announced that pub lic hearings on this issue will open in Washington August 12. Classified Ads Bring Results.
