Sounds like a lot of bunk but you believe what you read in the vamphlet. Illustrations give credence to the assertions, A poor pen-and-ink drawing shows a native of a land bringing down a mallard. That, you might say, is nothing to shout about, I beg to differ. You see, the mallard is behind a huge tree and the hunter has thrown the boomerang in such a way that it goes around ordinary obstacles for fowl. Small game, too. Other illustrations employing the familiar broken line for the flight line show spiral returns, figure eight returns, hop and two skips returns, a straight up with a couple of loop returns and others which require an “experienced thrower” to perform so we won't bother with them.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 20—The pants, cucumber, sponge, crab, filbert, dish, and bean boys are sore about the reciprocal trade program. So, apparently, are a couple of thousand other fellows, This indicates that reciprocal trade between nations in theory is a simple thing: You scratch my back and I'll scratch yours. But put it into practice and the howls of agony are enough to chill a Congressman’s spine, Let us not envy, therefore, the gentlemen of the House Ways and Means Committee on their * chairs of soft green leather in their sanctum with the golden drapes on the walls. The law which reduced tafiffs and made it easier for other hations to do business with us, as planned by Cordell Hull, is about to expire. The harried committeemen have got to write a new one, And harried is the word. Each business bigwig who appears before them says: “Reciprocal trade is a wonderful thing for sverybody—but me.” He usually has good arguments, too. Take, for instance, those beans and cucumbers.

Vegetables in Mess EEP. J. HARDIN PETERSON, talking for Florida's vegetable growers, said they were in a mess. Seems that some of the big cucumber and bean men closed down their farms in Florida and moved over to Cuba, where land and labor both were cheaper, Now, he said, vhenever one of their boats arrives with a load of vegetables it wrecks the market of their ex-pals in Florida. Rep, Peterson also spoke for his constituents who knock themselves out, literally, diving for sponges at Tarpon Springs.
