Prelude to Easter Sunday
They toil not, neither do they spin—but lilies like these will gladden the hearts of the faithful all
over the world on Easter morning. Symbolic of the purity of the Savior, the lilies pictured above
were grown near Santa Cruz, Calif, to be shipped to cities in the east and middle west. Stretching
for miles, the lily field presents a picture of striking beauty, enhanced (don’t you think?) by the pres
ence of pretty Gloria Daily, shown surrounded by some of the 75,000 blooms grown in the region.

Japan’s Premier Prince Konoye
was reported ready to resign—be
cause of a split among his minis
ters over the war ,on China, in
which the tables recently were
turned on the invaders.
The premier was believed to be
leading a moderate element op
posed to withdrawing troops from
Manchoukuo in an effort to smash
the Chinese.
Involved was the haunting fear
that Soviet Russia might choose to
strike at a war-weakened Japan.
The new French government “in
vited” employers and 160,000 strik
ing workers to reach peace by next
Tuesday under an ultimatum-like
warning that otherwise Premier
Daladier would use his dictatorial
authority “for the common good.”
At the same time, Daradler pre
tpared for conversations to strike
a bargain with Italy like that whicn
‘ltaly and Britain will sign tomor-
TOW.
Sources close to the Parig for

of the four $1,000,000 farm research

Places suggested for the location
of a Georgia laboratory were the
Georgia School of Technology, At

Accessibility, local facilities, farm
production and potential possibili
ties, plus the farm problem with
respect to commodities and popu

said, why Georgig should be the
site of one of these laboratories.
He outlined his reasons in a com

President Tells Nation Of
Plans in “Fireside” Address
He plans two messages to con
gress on those subjects, he told
his press conference. ¢
| The President, in his message
’ yvesterday asked congress to be
“definitely aware"” of the need for
‘eliminating exemytions on future
bond issues of all kinds of govern
'ment agencies and for subjecting
salaries and ‘wages of all kinds to
federal and state income taxes.
State employes now paying a
state income tax are exempt from
!the federal levy and federal em
ployes paying federal tax are ex
[empt from state levies.
The President talked to the
large gathering or reporters while
his rpovery campaign went for
ward on many fronts, :
He told the nation last night
that exisence of “our Democratic
institutions” depends on defeating
the forces of depression.
The President expressed belief
at the press conference that taxing
,the income from future issues of
bonds of government bodies could
be accomplished without a consti
tutional amendment. He said the
Constitution permitted taxation of
income from whatever source de
rived without exception.
That was common English lan
guage and he follows that, he
said.
Mr. Roosevelt added that there
was a school of legal thought that
held exemptions of eixisting bond
issues could removed without an
amendment but he sald he was
not askinf for that.
Will Get Estimate
He said he would endeavor to
get from the treasury an estimate
on how much money could be
raised by the two propositions.
Asked about his suggestion for

The labor committee approved

The committee acted only a
few hours before Mr. Roosevelt
told the nation in his “fireside
chat” he hoped congress would
enact a wagehour bill at this ses
sion to “insure a better distribution
of cur prosperity.”
The bill, représenting compro
