¢ ~-IE GOLDEN VALLEY NEWS May 4, %¸!¸{¸¸¸¸¸¸•¸ WashinF, on, D. O. More U, 8. Troops for India? ;~r in Washington. Sir John, per- ! The reply he got was: "Wh~t ~about the tremendous army you at- Iready have in'India?" Sir John had to admit that this ~uge British army is spread out ~hrough India largely for the pur- t~ose of preventing internal revolt. Senators who have learned about A~ais conversation are all set to do some blasting, should the White ~Iouse send more LI. S. troops to save the British Empire in India. However, they probably wcm't have ~o blast, because the President him- self is understood to feel strongly on that subject. $ • • KAISER'S NEW PLANE Very little has been heard of the : ~ant wooden transport plane which lKenry Katser proposed building than a year ago. However, ~he plane is qearing completion--- t, houah with no thanks to the navy. Behind the scenes, the navy has eJone all it ¢ou~ to block the plane lnd at one time proposed cancelling • he contracL Some insiders attribute this to pressure from the Msrtin ~ber plant, which has already ,,constructed a giant flying boat, iMars, for the navy. However, the new Kaiser wooden transport plane will be so big that the Mars could almost be carried /nside.. Its fuselage alone will be big enough to hold a freight car. Its ~v~.ng spread is 100 yards and it can ~arry a pay load of 60 tons, in 4addition to gasoline. At one time. the navy got so in- ~sistent that the contract for the plane be cancelled that famous rec- ord-holder Howard Hughes, now a i)artner of Kaiser's, had to plead with the RFC to let him continue. The big flying boat is being financed by RFC funds, and Hughes actually ~promised to put up a $,500,000 per- formance bond in case of non-fulo fillment of contract, plus a guaran, ~tee to pay all costs personally be- yond a certain date. The big plane should be finished ~early lathe summer. FARMERS GET A BREAK Chalk up a score for Congres~ ~an Lyndon Johnson of Texas and Economic Czar Fred Vinson ~in help- ing the farmer on the price of eggs; also in cutting the profits of dried- egg manufacturers to the tune of several million dollars a week. It happened through a queer quirk in price ceilings. The price on dried eggs had been fixed by the 0PA at 25 cents a pouad, but meanwhile the price at which farmers were sell- tug their eggs to the dried-egg proc- essors dropped from around 40 cents a dozen to 20 cents a dozen. ~pite this drop in price, the dried° egg processors continued to get the benefit of the high ceiling price, while buying eggs from the farmers at one-half what they did before. The spread between what the farmers got paid and what the egg processors sold for was so great that the processors were making tnoney at the stupendous rate of $6,000,000 a week -- until Texas' Lyndon Johnson stepped in with pro- tests to Judge Vinson. The latter has now upped the price which the farmer gets for his eggs. $ 8 $ RUSSIAN WEARINESS U. S. officials just back from Rus- sia report a war weariness among the Russian people. This is not to be confused with military strength or weakness. Obviously, the mill. tary machine is operating with an efficiency such as never before. For 25 years, Russia has been torn by war, revolution, or internal strain. Even during days of peace, the severe economic effort deprived the ordinary citlzen'of many el6men- tary comforts of life. But now, they see victory around the corner and want it to come quickly. Beyond that, they see se- curity coming from cooperation with the other big powers of the world. giving them the time necessary to build up a state in which, according to the precepts of the Soviet philoso- phy, the digaity of the individual can be recognized and enjoyed. • a • House secretary.

Whet effect C L 0 I @ As you tabulate the bills that you receive the first of the month, you might easily jump "to the conclusion that the cost of everything you buy has increased as a result of the war. Some of us recall a similar experience during World War L Grocery bills are higher, meat is more expensive and difficult to obtain, clothing costs have increased materially. ]But there is one exception to the ~ule. The cost of electric service is no higher today than k was prior to Pearl Harbor. As a mat- ter of fact, two world wars have seen a large reduction in the cost of electric service. As compared to 1913, which was prior to World War I, your dollar today buys 4~ Less food, 4~ Less clothing, 52~ Less furniture, but 70~ MORE electriciw. Business managed public utilities have had tO pay 8reafly increased costs for labor and operadag supplies and equipment. They are also burdened with taxes that have almost doubled during the two years of war. The fact that they have been able to absorb these increased costs without increasing their rates to their customers, is viodication of Freedom of Enterprise--the system that has made yotw business managed public utilities possible, ***************--*********-- RAILROAD WORK IS WAR WORK ... MANY JOBS MUST BE FILLED eeeVACATION WITH PAY The railroads of the United States have been called upon in this War to do the biggest trans- portation job in all history--twice as big as in the first World War--and the job still grows. So far, the task has been done--and done with 500,000 fewer workers than in the first World War. To keep on doing the job that must bedone, the railroads must have more workers to operate trains and yards, to maintain tracks, bridges, signals and telegraph lines, to repair cars and engines, to man stations and offices. No/other work is more important to Victory-- no other offers more real action and interest--for the railroads must keep on delivering the goods. All kinds of positions for men and for women-- in many departments of railroading--need filling. You can help. Even though you may not be a prospect, perhaps you know of persons who are.
