It appears that Governor Tal
madge’s platform is falling to
pieces underfire of his opponent,
Senator Richard B. Russell. He
told his hearers at a recent gath
ering that if elevated to the 11. S.
Senate that he would do, among
other things, introduce a bill re
ducing postage stamps on letters
to 2 cents. His opponent is having
a big laugh over this anticipated
act of the Governor, when he
points out that Congress had al
ready passed a law which will
soon reduce postage on letters to
2 cents. Senator Russell advises
the Governor to become more
familiar with laws passed in his
state. Wild statements of this
kind are calculated to embarrass
even our Governor.
It now seems that Georgia is
going through another Hone
Smith-Joe Brown political cam
paign. Four candidates in the
field bidding for the Governor
ship. E. D. Rivers, of Lakeland,
appears to have the lead on his
opponents at this writing. Rod
wine, Talmadge’s candidate, is
not meeting with the enthusiasm
of the voters as the old War
Horse once boasted of and really
controlled in the state. Sentiment
appear to be changing and it now
looks like a great change may
take place in state government al
the close ot the present term.
Recent rains have helped crops
throughout this section wonder
fully, and farmers are in better
spirits. Watermelons have taken
a turn for the better, it is learned,
and a fairly good yield is ex
pected. The first melons were
small, caused from drought, but
a very satisfactory prices have
been received. Next week promi
ses to be a good one with melon
shippers, as the sizes, due to
seasonable showers, will no doubt
command even better prices than
so far received. We are informed
by Mr. Rountree, Seaboard agent
here, that he has shipped from
this point up to the middle of the
week 57 cars. At other points m
the county at least this number
of cars have been shipped, mak
ing a very good showing, even
though planters were once very
disheartened on account of the
long drought.
Barren Ground*
Tundra Is a word of Finnish origin,
and Is now the recognized name of
that huge tract of land which lies
across Eurasia, north of the Arctic
circle, and is continued Into North
America as the "barren grounds.”

A $20,000,000,000
Congress
By RAYMOND PITCAIRN
National Chairrran
Sentinels of the Republie
While America floundered in floods of
Convention oratory, the Seventy-fourth
Congress recently ended its sessions.
Few citizens noted — and probably
fewer regretted—its passing. But they
should have noted it. For the Seventy
fourth Congress had done many things
which will have a profound and lasting
effect on the average American and his
pocketbook.
Here's part of the record:
It appropriated almost Twenty Bil
lion Dollars of the public's money.
It boosted the Federal debt to Thirty
four Billion Dollars—according to stat
isticians, an all-time high.
It passed numerous acts which the
Supreme Court has'decided violate the
Constitution.
It greatly increased the number of
appointed boards and bureaus and
committees which so frequently invade
the people's rights.
It engaged in many other activities—
some commendable, some not.
But to the great majority of Ameri
can workers and earners, the new rec
ords reached in spending public funds
and in tinkering with our Constitu
tional rights represent the most sig
nificant of recent Congressional activ
ities.
Why?
Because when Congress spends Fed
eral funds, it's actually spending our
money. We, the people, have to dig
it up.
When Congress boosts the Federal
debt, it's actually boosting our debts.
We, the people, have to meet J»th prin
cipal and interest.
When Congress Ignores the Federal
Constitution, it's actually ignoring our
Constitution. It’s the people’s Bill of
Rights.
Os their amazing record, members of
the Seventy-fourth Congress may or
may not, be proud. In either event they
can have the credit, while we, the peo
ple, pay the bills—whether in reduced
incomes, in expanded public debt, or in
the loss of liberties guaranteed under
the Constitution.
A Twenty - Billion - Dollar Congress
can put on a spectacular show. But to
us, the people, it's an expensive luxury.

TAKE advantage jot a cherished
secret of Hawaiian cookery the
next time you want your green
vegetables to tasto especially deli
cious. Instead of cooking in plain
water use one-third natural, un
sweetened Hawaiian pineapple juice
and two-thirds water. You'll bo de
lighted with the added tenderness
and zest thq vegetables acquire.

A discarded, but still flrm-on-lts
legs table can frequently be con
verted Into a serviceable piece ot
furniture for the game room by
adding a new top of wood fibre in
sulation, or tempered pressed wood.
If the top is to be covered with
cloth, the wood fibre insulation
should be used and the cloth laid
over it without glue. It can then
be drawn tightly and fastened at
the sides with large brass-headed
upholstery nails. If ihe table Is to
be used for beverage glasses, etc.,
the uncovered, tempered pressed
wood is suggested.

A SIMPLE, easily improvised de
vice is helpful in isolating
noises made by the various parts of
the automobile engine, and in spot--
ting trouble due to worn bearings,
worn valve springs or loose timing
gears. A long screw driver and a
tin can with one open end are all
that are needed. Touch the screw
driver to the various parts of the
engine, holding the bottom of the
can against the handle of the screw
driver and listening at the open end
of the can. The device provides an
effective engine stethoscope.

The old grease in the steering
gear housing ought to be flushed out
periodically. If there is no drain
plug, a quart of hot cylinder oil
slowly pumped into the housing and
allowed to run out of the filler plug,
will cause most of the grease to dis
solve and flow out with the oil. @

Radio Death-Wave May Soon s
Aid War On Insect Hordes
J. F. Witkowski
Principal, School of Radio, International Correspondence Schools
Associate Member, Institute of Radio Engineers
FOR centuries man has battled
against the insects for suprem
acy. To date the battle is still not
won. Man has called science to
his aid to develop methods which
enable him to slay his insect ene
mies by the millions, but other mil
lions are born to threaten his ex
istence by spreading disease or
destroying his food supply.
Radio’s short-waves, whose im
portance in long-distance radio
transmission is familiar to all radio
enthusiasts, are the latest scientific
weapon which gives promise of
bringing nearer man’s victory, at
least on the food-supply front As
experiments continue the possibil
ity increases that we may be able
to develop what would be In effect
a radio death-wave for marauding
insects, and one that would operate
on a wholesale scale.
At the present stage of develop
ment an adjustable short-wave
transmitter is connected to two
condenser test plates. Plants bear
ing the insects which are to be
killed are placed between the two
plates. The radio waves Induce
currents in the insects’ bodies
which make them hot to the touch
and kill them within ten to thirty
seconds. Since the ni.rgtn be
tween the frequencies which kill
insects and plants is wide, the
plants are not damaged by the cur
rent.
So far the death-wave for insects
has been used only on a laboratory

Pupil of the Great Escoffier *
Suggests a Sweet Potato Dish
By Barbara B. Brooks
TJURAINE, one of the old prov
inces of France and a cradle of
gastronomic delight, proiacod the
greatest chef the world has ever
known —the famous Escofller. Max
ine, a pupil of Escoffler and chief
chef of a fashionable American res
taurant. reveres the traditions of
the master but has found in Amer
ican foods the inspiration for some
of his most successful dishes.
if Maxine tells of the occasion
when he was called from his kitch
en to receive the congratulations Ot
a . member of a European royal
house who was visiting this coun
try. Only a Frenchman could
have conceived such a delicious
dish, he was told. He smiled as
he acknowledged the praise, for
the secret of the dish was the use
of corn flakes, than which there is
no more distinctly American food,
p Maxine has a penchant for cere
als as an aid in dressing up and
adding to the nutritive value of
various dishes, and below is a re
cipe he gives for Sweet Potato
Balls.
Sweet Potato Balls
S er I sweet pota- 6 marshmallows
toes (boiled) 1 cep corn Sakes
H cup crushed pine- (rolled ane)
apple (drained) Hi teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon butter
Boil, peel and mash sweet pota
toes and add pineapple which has
been well drained; butter and salt.
Form into balls with a marshmal
low in the center of each ball. Roll
in corn flake crumbs; place in a
greased baking dish and bake in a
hot oven. Temperature 400 de
grees. Time 15 to 20 minutes.
You will like this so well that I
am sure you will want to try some
thing else in the cereal line; so I
am adding a recipe for Bran Date
Bars which you will find particu
larly delicious.

When framing valuable etchings,
water colors or prints which will
remain in their frames for some
| time, it is suggested that they be
backed with a sheet of pressed wood
instead of the customary cardboard.
If they are then sealed with gummed
tape, changes in the humidity ot the
room cannot reach the drawing and
they remain clean until taken out
of the frame. If accidentally dropped,
the pressed wood keeps the frame
rigid in most cases and prevents
the glass from breaking. Many
costly works of art have been cut
or torn by broken glass when the
frame lias been dropped on the
floor.

The famous Q-623—quick relief for
Rheumatism, Neuritis, Sciatica, Lum
bago—is now available to all suffer
er from these tortures. Q-623 is a
prescription of a famous specialist
that has worked wonders for thous
ands of people when many other rem
edies have failed. We ask you to try
this famous prescription. A few
doses usually stops the pain, and
many people say “it is worth its
weight in gold.” Be sure you get an
8-ounee bottle; any other size, or any
other name, is counterfeit. And if you
are bothered with functional bladde,
and urinary irritations, or need, a
stimulant diuretic for the kidneys
try Q-Tabs —a highly effective pre
