It seems that the most popular book on the list is the one written — < by an Englishman forecasting "The Coming American Boom.” It at least sounds good and demand for, l copies exceed the supply, indicating prosperity for someone. If necessary the federal government will envoke price-fixing pow- ' ers in order to curb profiteering in food -stuffs. There is more than , enough to go around and unfair and unselfish practices will not be tolerated, officials declare. The country will back such regulation. < The government is mailing out pamphlets explaining the facilities of the National Housing Act and suggesting how local organizations should be formed in starting rebuilding programs. The sooner each community starts, the quicker men will be employed and the opportunity to avail itself of the advantages should not be passed by any town in the country. Our business in life is not to get ahead of other people, but to get ahead of ourselves.

aide and out as we never whipped him before, to give as we never have given, to do our work with more force and a finer finish than ever—this is the true idea—to get ahead of ourselves. — Elbert Hubbard. We believe those interested in tax matters like the new forms prescribed by the state board of accounts, used In publishing the budgets and estimated tax levies. The set-ups clearly show the system of bookkeeping required in arriving nt totals and estimated rates. They serve a good purpose in making it easy for the public to understand what it is all about and give all an Idea as to the cost of the various

depaitments of government. A person may not agree with everything that is done, but it sounds silly for Senator Robinson to say that the country is being ruined by new deal policies. Nobody’ witli a grain of sense will believe that and between Robinson and President Roosevelt the people will without doubt decide in favor of the latter. No man has ever given more unselfish service to the nation than Mr. Roosevelt and senators on the outside hurt their own cause when they talk this gloom and destruction stuff. The government is In earnest about starting big remodeling and rebuilding programs in every town in (he country. The administrator of Hie National Housing Act, believes two million men can be given employment if property owners do repair work now. The government has opened the way for financing such programs and loans up to $2,000, or not to exceed onefifth of the unincumbered income of an individual can be made through the banks. If men are put back to work it will do more to create better times than anything accomplished in a legislaive way. Each community should do its part in organizing a house and building repair program. a O CMARUy BY CHARLEY oRANT A touch sure puffs some footballers all up.

Eligibility of Young West Virginia Nominee Recalls Henry Clay IS- Z II i Bl 9*" / W /L \ ' /A | en r y C1 ay SH Rush D. Holt fchvV' hHEf I —— n Sen. Robert La Follette, Jr. A bewildering puzzle as to the eligibility of 29-year-old Rush D. Holt, Democratic nominee for the U. S. senate in West Virginia, has arisen, since, in the event, of his victory in the November election, he will not have attained' the constitutional age requirement of 30 years to hold a seat. Not until next June will the curly haired school teacher exponent of the "New Deal” attain his senate majority. Political observers however, recall that Henry Claj. "the millboy of the slashes” orator from Kentucky more than 100 years agd was seated in the upper chamber though he lacked several months of being 30 Young “Bob” La Follette, senior senator from Wisconsin, now seeking re-election, was a shade Ovir thfe eligible age when he was appointed to fill the vacancy c .used by the death of. his father "Old Bob”
