His name is Suzuki, who as head of the cabinet has been voted the power to rule by decree. He ought to give thought to what happened to Mussolini and Hitler. O—O Nine persons were killed in traffic accidents in Indiana over iart week end. A car is a dangerous ► vehicle unless the driver is constantly alert and uses greatest care. O—O If the war bond salesmen have miesed you, call and make a date. Perhaps he called when you were away or maybe he hasn’t got to you yet. Don’t wait; get your share of these wonderful investments. O—O Early potatoes are behind schedule and as a result the supply of old potatoes is being largely purchased by the Army. Dealers predict a shortage during the next month, but the outlook for a good crop is excellent, so we may n>t have to worry too long or too much. O—O The senate extended price control the other day after adopting an amendment guaranteeing farm profits. Senator Barkley, majority leader, and Senator Taft, Republican Header, were both against the amendment, but it slipped through by two-vote margin, leaving the leaiers puzzled about the whole thing.-* O—O General Stillwell, better known among the boys as "Vinegar Joe' and who knows much about the strength of the Japanese, says th. war may require two years. II j believes the struggle will end only when land forces have taken over and if the enemy retreats to Manchuria' and China, it will be a long and- tough hunt with plenty o cosily •battles. It’s not .encouraging but it's no doubt what the general believes. , o—o I • Harry Hopkins, who has taken more “heat” the past few years than any man in public' life in America with the exception of the later President Roosevelt, has scored another accomplishment that should eradicate criticisms even from those who have maligned him. His .recent visit to Moscow was such a complete success that all the real vexing problems were solved, including the months old Poland controversy. If the great powers of the woild work together, 89 now seems possible and prob-

able, the future should be much

better for every citizen in the wide world. Mr. Hopkins, who was ;*■- centiy dismissed from the Majao

George R. Bierly, Jr., Will Receive Degree, Commission

George R. Bierly, Jr., son of Mr. and Mrs. G. Remy Bierly, 110 S. Third street.'will receive his doctor of medicine degree and will be commissioned a lieutenant <jg) in the U. S. naval reserve, at commencement everciseS at the University of Louisville, (Ky.) on Friday morning. Mr. Bierly 'began the study of medicine six years ago and took pre-medic work at Loyola University in Chicago and at Indiana University. Hie iM. D. degree will be awarded by the University of Louisville, where he has been stationed the past three- years as a midshipman in the naval reserve. tDr. Bierly will serve his Intern■ship at the Methodist hospital in Indianapolis, and will revert to civilian status until he receives an assignment from the navy. tMr. and Mrs. Bierly and daughters, the Misses Fern and Joan Bierly, will attend the commencement exercises and commissioning festivities.

hospital, seems to be the American diplomat who can get things done. O—o What's the Gumbatsu? The Gumbatsu is the clique that I controls Japan. It is composed of industrialists, members of the Imperial household, war leaders and haters of the occidental. It rules Japan’s 35 million home island workers and 4(»0 million captured I Asiatic slaves who are making war ■ materiel and producing food. The Gumbatsu is the power oe-' hind Japan. It is the class that, in war and peace, lives off the fat of the land which is produced by the millions of underprivileged workers whose only privilege (?) is to slave for them. So you see the Gumbatsu has much to lose in this war. That is why Japan's normal replacements far exceed its losses. And the Gumbatsu is why the 7th War Loan seeks nearly as much in the one drive as was asked in the first two drives of last year. Support the 7th. Set your quota—and make it. You won't have to meet the Gumbatsu in person and the more and bigger War Bonds you buy the sooner there will not be a Gumbatsu to tell you about. O—O Empty Feedlots The only method by which an adequate supply of good beef can be restored to the people of America, according to former Congressman Robert J. Kleberg of Texas, is to relax present restrictions so more cattle can be sent to feedlots and kept there for longer periods. Mr. Kleberg is manager of the King Ranch, largest cattle range in the world. Approximately one-third of the nation's beef requirements come from meat raised and finished on the range. The remainder is finished in thousands of feedlots. Under the present setup. Mr. Kleberg points out, it is not profitable to finish cattle in feedlots. Many beeves now move directly to pack-

....... Nathan C. Nelson has been appointed deputy prosecuting attorney during Mr. Bierly’s absence from the city. ing houses from the range, making them fit only for earner beef. 1 Mr. Kleberg argues for a flexible managed price. In World War I, he recalls, the meat board met every day to adjust prices to a basis which would keep the feedlots in full operation. Under the present arrangement the feedlots are by-passed and underweight, inferior cattle are going to market. Range men are making money under the present policy, Mr. Kleberg says, and the ranges contain more cattle than ever before. But there is no money in the feedlot, and that is where most of the beef must come from if America is to resume eating it as of yore. 0 * .—, — 0 ■ Twenty Years Aao Today ♦ « June 14, I&JS waa Sunday. 0 COURT HOUSE Will Is Filed The last will and testament of Lula Swearingen, written Dec. 7, 5M3, was offered for probate.

Killian, superintendent of Indiana state police, said today that with the coming gasoline ration increase expected this month, Indiana's “safest” highway safety year may be upset. 'Killian said a 10 per cent decline in state traffic fatalities was recorded for the first five months of the year. A total of 286 persons were killed in accidents in the Jan-uary-June .period df thifc year, compared with 316 deaths for the same period last year. o Seventy-five per cent of the 1,200 major Army 'Ordnance items now in use by U. S. forces halre 'been newly designed or radically improved since the beginning of the war. and church activities. In her petition, Mrs. McCollum said her 10-year-old son, James Terry, was “shunned and denied the enjoyment of" his schoolmates’ friendship because he did not participate in the religious instruction of his public school. Mrs. McCollum, self-styled “rationalist” who assailed religion as “horn of fear, ignorance and superstition,” set forth that Champaign ministers teach religion in the public schools during half-hour weekly periods in the fourth grade and up. . She contended that such curricular addition violated state laws providing that the school board district directors appoint all teachers. An answer to her suit, filed last Monday, must be returned by next Monday.
