It is a medieval idea, detrimental to both national and state governments. Already is has been pro posed that the federal gov ernment collect most of the taxes and return part of them to the several states. Only recently the federal authorities have stepped in to the Chicago picture, to punish gangsters who have laughed at city and state officials. There are plead ings for federal aid in. this or that The idea of a strong central government is aound. But if it becomes so strong that it destroys the initiative and self-reliance of the states, there is dang-1 er. ahead. Calvin Coolidge, warned of the tendency seven years ago. . He who doesn't clean up his own backyard isn't likely to care much about how the public street looks. So is it with the states. BACKYARD GARDENS The backyard or vacant lot truck garden is going to be an important method of relieving the wants of the unemployed this summer. Fred C. Croxton, vice chair- - man of the president's Emergency committee for employment, points out that there has been a huge increase in vegetable gard ens in the United States this. summer, and says that many part-time or laid-off .workers will use them to ' provide themselves with food. A number of business concerns which own idle land, such as railroad and mining companies, have en couraged workers whom they have had to lay off to raise vegetables on tracts of company land. In many cities relief committees and civic organizations have taken up the work. And, of course, the jobless man who has a backyard of his own is turning truck-gardener without any prompting. All of this will not, of course, replace organized relief distribution. But - it Will help the situation very materially, p o The fact an increasing number of phone calls are being made at the White House should convince you that the Republicans are quite a busy party. o An optimist is a South America president who thinks the shooting outside Is ' one presidential salute after the other.

Two years ago. men that "play the market" had for their limit not the sky or the fixed stars, but the distant nebula. Now they will sacrifice their stocks and later buy them again at top prices.

Miss Clara Bow, young mov ing picture actress of great tal ent, deserves thanks for showing the necessary courage. One of tha criminals, proving upon her, haa been convicted of grand theft, another Is pros ecuted by the federal authorities. Unfortunately, the long strain in court, with tha unsuccessful attempts at blackmail and the efforts to blacken her character, have injured her health, forcing ner, temporarily, to enter a san itarium for recuperation. The public, with whom Clara Bow greatly Increased her nonn laritv, can show its appreciation oi ner plucky conduct by flock ing more than ever to her pic tures, constantly improving. TWELVE nations in Europe, to say notking of thla one, are worried about Russian Industrial, commercial and business compe tition, ine export markets of the Lnited Statea are much af. fected," yon are told. Where wa used to sett goods, Russia la underselling us. European na tions want to form a trade agree ment against Kussia and, prob ably, will succeed no better than they did with their "United States or Europe" that was to tear down barriers among them selves.

Before lending a credulous ear. to communist propaganda, it 1 well to reflect that the worst conditions in America are not so bad aa the best in Russia. Too many people depend on the government when the gov ernment, if it is to survive, must depend on the people. We've noticed no laudation of the Chicago police captain who had banked $217,000 In five years, but he probably prefers to receive his tribute from the racketeers. a Soviet Russia's well-known proficiency In execution doesn't apply, it appears, to her five year plan. see General Sutler apparently re gards it as the function of a ma rine to keep officials and diplo matic Washington at see, Friend California has bought an alrplaao for here governor.

When tt cornea from the oven glased with auger and dotted with doves, it ia tantalising to have to wait for a pink, aavory-awast slice. To develop the flavor of haat to the utmost, put half a cop of sugar and half a cap of vinegar In the water in which your half or whole ham simmers. Then after th ham ia tender let it remain in th water until coot Ths rssult is a delicious, savory Savor. Ham, however, Is but ona of th many foods where sugar can be used ta advantage. In seasoning meat stews and pot-roasta, canned or fresh vegetables, a dash of sugar to a pinch of salt greatly Improves the flavor. Salt by iteelf merely overcomes flatness. It ia tha sugar that "brings out" th flavor. Most foods are more delidoui with sugar. The Sugar Institute. Lowest Level Ever Reached in History BUY NOW AT THESE LOW PRICES!
