TAFT DRAWS HIS VERBAL SWORD WHEN STUDENTS DARE TO THINK Senator Robert Alphonso Taft, Republican, of Ohio, seems to think that the voice of the people should sound only through a megaphone installed hi the National Republican Committee headquarters with one pipe-line for sound effects from the National Association of Manufacturers. Recently students of the civics class of a Warren, Ohio, high school wrote the Senator, advocating extension of the Office of Price Administration. 1 ' The Senator was filled with gloom. It is not clear what . depressed him most, the fact that constituents had counseled with him or that, in counseling, they had opposed inflation. Inflation would, of course, give a lilt to his masters' voices
in the NAM and prove Robert Alphonso Taft the good and
iaithful Charlie McCarthy which he is.
Anyhow, he boomed a protest to the superintendent of schools, complaining that OP A "propaganda" had been "ex
tended into the schools."
The -.students' said they were assigned to write letters either for or against price control extension. One student said 'jl think we are old enough now that our opinions should be
important to Congressmen."
Some thought they are also old enough to know that it
all boiled down to one thing: Senator Taft was just told
something by some of his constituents that he didn't want to
hear.

Jess'9 chopped her own firewood ...
WITH.fJieir last few hundred dollars, John bought gold washing equipment, to try their "worthless" land. He installed Jessie and Lily in two rooms of an adobe j httt in Monterey with one servant, Gregorio, an Indian ihouseboy. John plunged into the mountains. In her crude home, ' Jessie tried hard to make things livable. While Gregorio j would hunt, he would not chop wood that was squaw's ,'work. So Jessie chopped her own firewood. From harsh ! xnerinos and muslins, she cut clothing for herself and Lily. ! Late one afternoon, about a month after John had left, ; while she was sewing before the hearth in the living room, ! with Gregorio and Lily squatting before the Are toasting iquaiL the door was thrown open and John burst into the ,jom. His face and clothing were soiled from a long ride
"Yes, my darling," John said, "gold! Almost $25,000 worth."
but there was a fiery glow in his eyes. He laid a heavy sack at Jessie's feet. He untied it quickly, scooped his right hand onto it and with his left hand grasping her wrist tightly, poured A slow, bright stream of powder into her palm. "Gold!" she cried. "Yes, my darling, gold. Almost $25,000 worth. Every creek is lined with it." , Their Mariposa land was tremendously valuable, John explained. It carried a Mother Lode of gold. It meaut that now they would have to buy large mining equipment and bring men in to wrest their fortune from the mountains. The following days were like a fantastic dream as the sacks of gold grew. Jessie continued to do her own work because she would not buy slaves. Still she managed to entertain delegates to California's first state convention. John

' ' Wealthy now, Jessie and John returned to Washington. -People who had avoided them during John's court martial, : now feted them. As guests of honor at formal dinners, they were recklessly happy. At one table, James Buchanan mur-: mured to her, "I don't think you should engage in. flirtation with your husbarid while sitting next to me. I am beginning to suspect that he loves you." Jessie laughed. "He is so stunned at seeing me in an evening gown after unbleached muslins that he can hardly believe his eyes." But new clouds soon appeared on the horizon. They were forced to sell mining stock for more equipment it meant admission of outsiders. And John had to draw lots for the long senate term. He told Jessie, "Wish me luck .. ."
