THERE IS SUCH A GREAT DISPARITY between prices and propaganda on the one hand, and indicated supply on the other, that it is obvious there is something wrong somewhere, however, a statement from the United States Department of Agriculture on September 1 reports that the "total production of all crops, despite the poor corn prospects, is near average for the past five years, the best 5-year period in the nation's history." In the face of the huge job facing this country, that of feeding the world, so to speak, these reports serve as a chart of prospective food supplies, as we all know. Without these reports, our rural areas and growers would have no indication of the acreage to plant nor the plans to make for supplying the needs of the nations. Another angle from the current feed situation report on the supplies of grains and other concentrates for livestock this coming year is the "total supply of feed concentrates for the 1947-48 feeding season will be 143 million tons, according to the August estimates. With fewer livestock to be fed than in other recent years, the supply per animal unit is close to the average for the past ten years." These figures are of utmost importance to the peoples of the world, serving to act as a barometer for the report of foods stuff available for feeding the millions who are facing...

DAVID E. LILIENTHAL, chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission, said, a few days ago, that the American scheme will be lost unless private citizens exert wide-awake Democratic control over the sweeping changes which new scientific discoveries must bring. "We should make sure the changes will be fitted to the American way of doing things," because "atomic energy and scientific discoveries have not and need not change the fundamental principles of democracy." Lilienthal suggests that every community should debate the question of whether a particular proposal of international control of atomic energy is workable or an ineffective "fraud upon the people." He seems to place the accent on "fraud." Lilienthal is as safe a man as there is to be found in the government. That is why he was chosen in the Senate to the place he occupies. Now, he warns the public to beware lest "schemers or fools or rascals or hysterical stuffed shirts get this thing out of your hands." That warning should convince some of our optimistic "statesmen" that it is time to let up on discussing the atomic bomb as an international plaything. Time and again commentators have indicated that the best authorities in the land have steadfastly supported the American plan of government to maintain the peace at home and restore it, if possible, to the rest of the world. This principle seems satisfactory to everybody except the black-hearted Soviet government that insists on being let in on atomic secrets—which is none of their darn business. Believe it, or not: There will be no war with Russia as long as we keep in step with our own Atomic Energy Commission, which chairman Lilienthal warns "will be lost" unless America denies to all the world any part of control of atomic energy. International control of this great weapon would be a "fraud upon the people of our own country." Henry Wallace told an audience in Boston that the United States "will never win a third World War." That gentleman need not contemplate a third war while the United States continues its leadership in world affairs—because the United States will never be the aggressor. Besides that, no nation will start another World War as long as the policies of the Atomic Energy Commission are continued. PRESIDENT TRUMAN'S APPEAL to the American people to conserve food should get their full cooperation. The most important material thing in the world today is food. War-torn countries must have Henry Wallace told an audience in Boston that the United States "will never win a third World War." That gentleman need not contemplate a third war while the United States continues its leadership in world affairs—because the United States will never be the aggressor. Besides that, no nation will start another World War as long as the policies of the Atomic Energy Commission are continued. PRESIDENT TRUMAN'S APPEAL to the American people to conserve food should get their full cooperation. The most important material thing in the world today is food. War-torn countries must have more of it from us if they are to avert starvation and the desperation on which communism thrives. If we are careful to buy only the food we really need and equally careful to see that none of it is wasted we'll have an ample supply for ourselves and enough to give other countries adequate help. The average American today gets about 3400 calories; 2700 is sufficient, but that's two or three times as much as most people abroad are getting daily. It is estimated that we waste about 25 per cent of our food—enough to feed 140 million people in Europe for three months. Complete elimination of waste is not likely to be achieved but a substantial reduction of it will do much to ease the world shortage. Conservation of food will also serve to hold down rising commodity prices and give the family budget a badly-needed breather. So, for selfish as well as humanitarian reasons food saving is a "must" for the American people. WE'LL COME THROUGH The Western Hemisphere stands united in favor of peace. Way back in the long ago these same nations agreed to support the Monroe Doctrine on the theory that the only part of the world we had any interest in would be our own continent. There is no question but what the Western Hemisphere stands for the same principles that it did nearly two centuries ago. Today we are financing, feeding and giving protection to what is called "One World." No one ever thought in the days of George Washington that in so short a time we would be the greatest nation in the world. But we are—and we are going to continue to be—just as soon as we get over our soft spells, and push Russia back across its own borders, and tell them to go back to fight it out among themselves. YOUR NEWSPAPER serves freedom by serving you." This is the theme of National Newspaper Week which being observed from October 1 to 8. It is a timely theme, for at this very moment the struggle for world freedom, as well as world peace, is being highlighted in the halls of the United Nations Assembly. A free press and a free people are synonymous. Neither can be free independently of the other. Dictators have recognized that fact. Hitler and Mussolini first had to gain control of the press before they could control the people. Today we find in such countries as Russia and her satellites, in Spain, in Argentina and in some other nations where the press is not free, it is used to promote the political interests of the controlling minorities rather than for the benefit of the masses. In those countries the people are not free to break their minds, to openly support a cause or to oppose it according to their convictions, to criticize the government to publicly take a stand against the men in power. The American Press is a free press. The American people are a free people. But that freedom must never be taken for granted. Governor Warren recently declared that for "over a century and a half, our newspapers have consistently fought depression, injustice and corruption in every form." And that's just what they will continue to do, for only this way can they do their part in preserving a free press and a free people. PHILIPPINE OPPORTUNITY "At no time in history have American businessmen had better opportunities than at present in the Philippines." This was the statement made by Judge Roberto Regala, Philippines' consul general for the western states and Alaska. The plan for the industrialization of the Philippines will require $20 million worth of machinery and equipment during the first two years of its operation. Judge Regala believes that much of this machinery and equipment can be manufactured here in the west. There is no doubt about it that western businessmen are very much interested in the possibilities for trade expansion with the Orient in general and the Philippines in particular. Trade with the Philippines has already revived to substantial degree. Judge Regala declares that the natural resources of the Philippines are still comparatively untouched.

Trade with the Philippines should eventually exceed the war volume many times over. WORLD SERIES In New York it is the World Series; in Brooklyn it is "Woild Serious." But regardless of what it is called it's blue ribbon classic of the baseball world and probably greatest of all sporting events in the United States. Nothing else seems to matter in this country when the es is on. Problems of food conservation, loans to foreign cons, the high cost of living, etc.—all these cares are laid temporarily while citizens young and old root for their write team. To the New Yorkers the world series is old stuff since Yankees have developed a rather monotonous habit in past couple of decades of winning the American League championship about two years out of every three. But even the Yorkers get feverish with excitement. As for Brooklyn, the championship teams have been far fewer and far between. Until they won the National game flag in 1941 they hadn't had a winner since 1920. Eventually, in 1941 they played the Yankees in the world series—and lost four out of five. They'll be out to avenge loss. And they may do it. May the best team win (if it's the one we're rooting for). CRIMINATION IN THE ADVERTISING FIELD The old saying that you must go away from home to see the news has been traced down by a Los Angeles advertising manager who has told the world something that would have known 50 years ago. Advertising agents, he tells their clients that there are so many dailies and so many weeklies and that when advertising is placed "it is on up-judgment consensus" that represents a distinct handicap to the weekly newspaper seeking to sell national advertising space. The U. S. Bureau of Census reveals that 30 per cent of nation's sales originated in towns of 9,000 or less, where lies collaborate and furnish all the news in their territory.

Sewage Threat (Continued from page 1) be obviated by the recommended plan featuring a 15,000-foot outfall line, serving eight of the ten sanitation districts contemplated under the regional plan. An exhaustive study of ocean currents of the coast was involved in designing the sewerage works so that, even with an on shore current, the effluent, already given primary treatment, would be sufficiently diluted to be safe before reaching the breakers, he explained. As sewage volume increased in the future, it might be advisable to store a portion of the effluent until it could be released into an off shore current and carried out to sea. To reclaim the effluent for irrigation or spreading, an extensive—and expensive—secondary treatment would be required, and there would be the additional cost of pumping the reclaimed water upriver to spreading grounds, all of which would run the cost too high, while Colorado river water is available, Rawn stated. The formation of ten districts was recommended as an equitable plan of financing, each district paying for only those projects in which it participates and by which it benefits.

Accounts of the shooting are conflicting, but it appears that "Chapo," who was under the influence of liquor, interfered in a game of poker in which Reyes and a number of others were engaged. The two men then engaged in an altercation, during which "Chapo" is said to have thrust his hand into the inside of his vest, when Reyes drew a pistol and fired. Death was instantaneous. "Chapo" was unarmed. Reyes immediately gave himself up to Constable Berlin and is now confined in the county jail in Santa Ana.
