But reduced interest rates on loans to farmers will cost the budget $40,000,000; extension of PWA, $25,000,000; social security tax refunds, $36,000,000; the Railroad Retirement act, $113,-00,000. Debt. The net deficit represents potential addition to the national debt now approaching $37,000,-00,000; but the national debt in the hands of the public will probably be smaller at the end of next June. COMMENTATOR— FORT WORTH, Texas—Elliott Roosevelt, second son of the president, last week signed a contract to broadcast news commentaries twice a week from Fort Worth, Tex. His 15-minute programs will contain no mention of politics, will be confined to news "in the lives of Mr. and Mrs. Average Citizen." VICTORIES" and "NAPOLEON" NANKING, China — Although Japanese forces last week captured another 1,725 square miles of Chinese territory, including Shanghai's long-beseiged North railroad station and its vicinity, sizable Japanese units in captured North China territory among the mountains of Shansi were being fed with biscuits dropped by Japanese bombers—a clear indication that harassing Chinese guerrilla tactics recently launched on a large scale had cut some Japanese supply lines. pills), Dr. Massengill sought something in which to dissolve sulfanilamide, which had hitherto been taken in tablets and intravenous injections only. He decided to use diethylene glycol, a close relative of alcohol used to keep motorcar radiators from freezing, but never put to this purpose. The S. E. Massengill Co. made up several 80-gallon batches of sulfanilamide solution, labeled it an elixir (a technical pharmacological term for a drug sweetened and dissolved in alcohol), shipped it to 375 retailers—one as far away as Puerto Rico. Massengill's Elixir Sulfanilamide had by last week caused the deaths of at least 41 persons, the disability of countless more, a nationwide scare. First warnings of trouble sounded when people who took this medicine for sore throats developed nausea, cramps and inability to urinate. Autopsies revealed destroyed kidneys and livers. Agents of the Federal Food and Drug administration, posted throughout the country to watch for just such pharmaceutical accidents, promptly confiscated every last flask of the Massengill "elixir" they could find. Meanwhile Dr. Massengill cooperated with the food and drug men by sending warning telegraphs to all his sulfanilamide customers. The Pure Food and Drug bill up before congress last session would have made Dr. Massengill liable to federal prosecution. But—the bill failed and there is no law which makes a pharmacist responsible to the federal government for selling untested drugs. Dr. Massengill is nevertheless liable to civil damage suits from relatives of the 41 dead. POST OFFICES— ST. LOUIS, Missouri — When the town post office of Enough, Mo., was discontinued last week, the St. Louis "Post Dispatch" editorialised deploring the loss, hoping post offices in Missouri would not be discontinued at Hazzah, Ink, Useful, Novelty, Peculiar, Wisdom Ponder, Aid, Braggadocio. Carl F. Schultz of the Federated church listed six causes for empty church pews: rest, radio, riding, relatives, roomers, rum. In Atlantic City, N. J., where Headmaster Frank Ely Gacbellein of Stony Brook (L. I.) school for boys told a Methodist protestant conference that little more than 25% of 49,000,000 United States young people have ever been in a Japanese forces last week captured another 1,725 square miles of Chinese territory; including Shanghai's long-beseiged North railroad station and its vicinity, sizable Japanese units in captured North China territory among the mountains of Shansi were being fed with biscuits dropped by Japanese bombers—a clear indication that harassing Chinese guerrilla tactics recently launched on a large scale had cut some Japanese supply lines. Chief generals in charge of Chinese troops waging hectic hit-and-run warfare last week were "Red Napoleon" Chu Teh and "100 Victories". Wei Li-huang, fighting shoulder to shoulder. Four years ago the Chinese government was offering $100,000 for the "Red Napoleon" alive or $80,000 for him dead; and the "100 Victories" (more or less) which earned General Wei his soubriquet were won in skirmishes aimed to exterminate the Chinese communists of General Chu. Typical of belated but glorious news received by Chinese Premier and Generalissimo Chiang Kaishek at Nanking last week was this telegram from Red Napoleon Chu: "First the left flank of our army began an attack against Ningwu, which was held by the Japanese... After besieging the city for four days we finally recaptured it, taking 2,000 Japanese prisoners... On October 7, we attacked the cities of Taiyueh, Yulintsu and Mayi, the last two of which were recaptured. We also destroyed all highways, bridges and telegraph and telephone lines in the vicinity of Taiyueh and outside the city killed over 100 Japanese and destroyed a dozen armored cars. On October 12 we again defeated Japanese reinforcements coming to relieve Taiyueh and killed 200 and burned 18 of their 60 armored cars." Although the Japanese advance was last week resumed, "after extremely heavy fighting," according to Tokyo communiques, it was evident that Chinese troops in mountain areas so inaccessible that even their own government has not known exactly how the war was going, have been making brave, effective resistance on a scale Chinese have not before equalled in the North. BORDER BATTLE—PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti—Because French speaking Negro people POST OFFICES—ST. LOUIS, Missouri — When the town post office of Enough, Mo., was discontinued last week, the St. Louis "Post Dispatch" editorialised deploring the loss, hoping post offices in Missouri would not be discontinued at Hazzah, Ink, Useful, Novelty, Peculiar, Wisdom, Ponder, Aid, Braggadocio. STAR FARMER—KANSAS CITY, Missouri — When his father and mother died in 1936 20-year-old Robert Lee Bristow of Saluda, Va., inherited a share in a down-at-heel farm, with a $2,431 mortgage, 203 acres of depleted soil and almost no equipment. Persuading his three brothers and two sisters to give him their shares in the establishment, Robert Bristow got the bank to extend the mortgage, rigged up a tractor out of a Model T Ford and part of an old truck, before year's-end had 69 acres under cultivation, 1,100 chickens, a grist mill to grind his neighbors' grain. In his first year out of school, where he stood fourth in his class, Farmer Bristow cleared $725; in his second, he expects to do twice as well, cut his mortgage in half. Farmer Bristow last week received something that will help him to realize his expectations: At Kansas City, Mo., where 8,000 of the 143,000 United States members of the Future Farmers of America gathered to attend their tenth annual convention, a committee of three headed by Secretary of the Interior Harold Ickes announced the name of Star Farmer of America, selected from F. F. A. rolls three weeks ago: Robert Lee Bristow. With the honor went a $500 prize. FASHIONS OF 1938—NEW YORK—From the viewpoint of the public, the annual automobile shows—opened by the Manhattan show (staged by the manufacturers) and followed immediately by 44 shows in other cities (staged by dealers) — are eagerly anticipated pageants where the nation's most progressive industry displays new and wonderful improvements in United States mankind's most basic luxury. But improvements in 1938 automobiles, on view for the first time last week with the opening of the BORDER BATTLE— PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti—Because French speaking Negro Haiti (10,204 sq. mi.) had a population (2,550,000) almost twice that of the Spanish-speaking Dominican republic twice its size (19,332 sq. mi.) over-crowded Haitians have for years been slipping over the border, squatting on Dominican land. Out of the jungle last week seeped news that the border villages recently blazed with fire and the banging of musketry; that when the smoke cleared, over 300 were dead on Dominician soil, mostly Haitian squatters, their wives and children. Nervous authorities in both countries now fear reprisals. FATAL REMEDY— WASHINGTON — Latest remedy for gonorrhea and septic sore throats and a good remedy for scarlet fever, erysipelas, and cerebrospinal meningitis—is sulfanilamide. Noting a great demand for sulfanilamide, 61-year-old Dr. Samuel Evans Massengill, who compounds veterinary medicines in a good-sized factory at Bristol, Tenn., this summer decided to add that drag to his line. Knowing that his southern customers prefer their medicines in bottles (New Englanders prefer tomobile shows—opened by the Manhattan show (staged by the manufacturer) and followed immediately by 44 shows in other cities (staged by dealers) — are eagerly anticipated pageants where the nation's most progressive industry displays new and wonderful improvements in United States mankind's most basic luxury. But improvements in 1938 automobiles, on view for the first time last week with the opening of the 39th annual automobile show in New York's hulking Grand Central palace, are neither new nor wonderful. Cars look virtually the same as last year, save for a few refinements of streamlining, and the only newcomer is a midget car named "Bantam." From the viewpoint of automobile makers and sellers, the automobile show is considered the best means of "kicking-off the industry to a good start." To the industry, this year's kick-off looks good because the slight changes in car appearance mean that few expensive changes in plant and tooling were necessary to launch the new models. The lack of newcomers and new gadgets means that dealers can continue in their accustomed sales routines. And prices already raised some 5% in August, are generally being raised some 5% more with the show. PEWS AND PULPITS— NEW YORK — Lackadaisical United States church attendance, and related problems facing United States ministers, made news last week: In Hyannis, Mass., where Rev. ANAHEIM GAZETTE Alz of the Federated Six causes for empty rest, radio, riding, amers, rum. City, N. J., where Frank Ely Gachelein took (L. I.) school for Methodist protestant that little more than 10,000 United States have ever been in a church. Recent questionnaires, he said, showed that 16,000 of 55,000 school children had never heard of the ten commandments; only 2,000 of 18,000 students could name four biblical prophets, only 6,000 the four gospels, only 8,000 any three of Christ's disciples. Headmaster Gachelein's remedy; "Revive the family altar and the reading of the Bible." CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CHURCH "Adam and Fallen Man" is the subject of the Lesson-Sermon on Sunday in all Churches of Christ, Scientist, branches of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Massachusetts. The Golden Text consists of Jesus' words: "It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing." Among the Bible selections of the Lesson-Sermon are the words of Jesus, from the Gospel of John: "And this is the solemnation, that light is come in the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For even one that dooth evil hateth to light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved."

For every dooth evil hateth the neither cometh to the light, deeds should be reproved. But he that doeth truth cometh to the 'light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God." A passage from the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy, states: "When we wake to the truth of being, all disease, pain, weakness, weariness, sorrow, sin, death, will be unknown, and the mortal dream' will forever cease." Although the 1930 Golden Gate International Exposition is being built on an island in San Francisco Bay, most of the building materials have been brought in by rail.
