there's enough that if you start.

Mail, taxes, Christmas presents, suitcases. The letters go clear back to last summer. Two or three people call me on an error. (Sure, I admit my mistakes). This one is about my saying there was no big outdoor statue of Christ in the United States except the new one at El Paso. Well, it seems there is one, at Cassells, Colo. It’s even higher than the one at El Paso. I'm glad of it.

Another error. Writing from Panama, I said that as far as I knew there wasn’t an air-conditioned building in Panama. A man in Washington, who was down there on a cruise this winter, incloses a business card of Motta's, which sells hats, perfumes, silks, etc. The card says, “The ‘only air-conditioned store in Panama.” A deep bow to you, Motta’s. But I think I'm still right in saying there isn’t one in San Francisco. There are lots of letters on “dugways.” Last summer, out in Utah, I said I'd never heard the expresIt means a road cut deep through the side of a precipice. Well, that just showed that I don’t travel enough. ‘Dugway’ is an old New England term, and it's used alsa in New York State and in Ohio.

lation for its latest expose, Cons

By Ernie Pyle

Col. Willard Holt, of the Lordsburg (N. M.) Chamber of Commerce, says his is the only C. of C. in the world that never closes its doors. The catch being that his doors open into the lobby of the Hidalgo Hotel, and, of course, hotel lobbies don’t close. But a letter from Mr. Del Cluff, who is the bartender in the Buena Vista Hotel at Safford, Ariz., writes that the same- thing applies’ in “Safford. He says the hotel hasn’t closed its doors for 10 years, or 3652 days. The two days, he says, are added for Leap Year. Well, never mind, Col. Holt, you've still got your 664 sweethearts. - : 2 2 8

“We give you Indiana and we take Texas, now and|

forever,” write our friends the Moores, after a whirl at living in Hoosierdom. O. K., Brother Moore, take it away. I'm from the Province of Guanacaste myself. You don’t aot me into any state arguments.

A lady in Columbus, O., liked the column last fall about Sunset Cox, our, soldier-of-fortune friend from China who is in the Veterans Hospital at San Fernando, Cal. You may remember how curious and excited Sunset is about everything, even though he’s 67.

This lady was especially impressed by Sunset want-|

ing to watch his own operation. She says that when her husband was operated on for appendicitis they put up a rack in front of his face and hung a towel on it so he couldn't see, but he pushed the towel aside and watched the whole thing, and kept exchanging puns with the surgeon. She says the nurses were laughing so hard they couldn't hold the sponges. |- “Furthermore,” she says, “he tried to sell the doctor a typewriter while he was on the operating table. This is the gospel truth and can be substantiated. *Nobody doubts, you, Madam, but the point is, did the doctor buy? And speaking of Sunset’ Cox, there is a letter on him. = He says that the Splumn about him brought scores of Christmas car from people who didn’t even sign their names. “And I've found at least a dozen old friends through it—from Seattle to Florida. So many pleasant .things are happening to me I'm almost afraid I'll wake up!”

wait on a Congressional investigation. There is more hope now than two weeks ago that the rlouse Rules Committee will approve the Tolan resolution for that purpose. Supported by the entire California delegation, it probably will pass. There are many reasons why Congress has done so little: 1. When the powerful farm lobby gets its subsidies, there is not much left even in a deficit budget for the landless farmer. 2. The migrants cannot vote, and therefore have no political drag. 3. Many ot the Southern and Midwestern states are only too glad to get rid of their dispossessed and

indicates that Oregon is leaning to the Democratic Party again at the present time, with a small majority favoring a Democratic President next November. A similar survey in the _neighboring state of Washington shows that state in the Democratic column also, and by a slightly larger margin.

Voters in the two states were

Mrs. Roosevelt, on an inspection trip of Government and private camps in California, said Steinbeck's “Grapes of Wrath” did not exaggeraie conditions. In advocating resettlement, she mentioned the Grand Coulee Dam project in Washington. Officials here hope that 100,000 families may eventually be settled

Situation Growing Worse

He differentiates between the Joads and the old-

type migration of single men who followed the grain ‘harvests before the day of the combine; and also the one to two million families who now follow the harvests but return to their homes. Neither of those groups is similar to Steinbeck's families, who have been forced from their homes forever. Among the factors which distinguish the Joad labor conflicts frem ordinary farm labor problems, according to Dr. Taylor, are. Industrialized agriculture, employers’ desire for complete control otf wages, perishability. of crops, lack of status of mobile farm wage-earners, and interstate migration of native Americans driven from their land. He cites authorities for the prediction that the migrant problem will increase with mechanization of jagriculture in the South. ! The average migrant. earns about $250 a year.

‘Heaith conditions are the worst ‘in the country, edu-

‘cational opportunities hardly exist, family life is demoralized, and rights of citizenship are denied: The violation of their civil liberties has been exposed by the La Follette Investigating Committee.

NEW YORK, April’ 8 —The Merchants Association ‘of New York is taking hold of that curse which has

slum, the commercial or residential district which has

decayed beyond the pcint where it attracts further

private investment and is al-

lowed to rot away into a shambles of second-hand shops, junkyards and filthy tenements. Almost every city has the picblem in some degree. It has been accelerated by the coming of the automobile, which has enlarged the effective radius of the average community from five miles to 15 miles. With better transportation, the pressure. on congested central areas is .eased.: Old residential property is no longer in such demand even -for commercial purposes. Particularly there is less incentive for any one to go into such a neighborhood with new buildings, either residential or ccn:mercial, because of the surroundings. Or if it is a large project, a huge apartment house or commercial building, there is always: the difficulty of acquiring a block of land because small individual owners of various parcels are likely to-hold out for unreasonable prices.

. Manhattan has many areas blighted by these conditions, and the Merchants Association has underjaken measures to deal with them. This group, supported by the Real Estate Beard of New York, the Community Service Society, the Regional Plan Association, the New York Chapter of the American Institute of Architects, the New York Building Congress, and some other: important bodies, put a committee to work on the problem and induced the New

Mrs. Winter is a wonderful old lady with indomitable courage.

York Legislature to pass a bill 0 encourage private enterprise in the field of clearance, planning, rehabilitation and reconstruction of substandard and insanitary urban areas. The bill as passed by the New York Legislature —Governor Lehman has not yet signed it but is being urged to by many groups—would make it possible to undertake reconstruction of these downtown slums on a large scale by private enterprise. The bill gives power, when 60 per cent of the landowners of an area consent, to condemn the remaining property. That is to.prevent holdups by owners of small parcels, and to make it possible to clear an entire bloc ov several blocks for redevelopment. Plans must be approved by the New York City Planning Board, as to design and construction. Financing also must be approved by public authority.

Other States Interested

An incentive tak arrangement is included under which the project would pay taxes for 10 years on

the basis of old assessed values at the time of acquisition. That is to atirsct new capital. In exchange for that tax concession, the project would be limited to payment of dividends of 5 per cent during the 10-year period. After 10 years, taxes would be paid on the new assessed value. The 5. per cent dividend limit would be removed but one-third of any excess dividends would go to the city as a special tax. The United States Chamber of Commerce and local chambers in many localities have manifested interest in the New York plan. The reason for this widespread interest is that every community is troubled by the difficulty of anchoring its central business section and preventing erosion of commercial and residential values. It is beyond the ability of private initiative to check this unless aided by the power of condemnation and stim-

ulated by temporary concessions such as the delayed |

taxation proposed in the New York measure,
