Where to Put Them All With 66,000 new citizens arriving in America each week via the stork, and with the census next April expected to show an increase of some 20 million persons since the last nose count in 1940, the problem of providing the consumer goods, and especially the necessary housing for all these individuals again comes to the fore. During the years since the war millions of homes and other dwellings have been built. But in the years ahead the tremendous construction pace must continue and even increase, particularly in the 60's when the heavy baby crop of the past decade matures and marries. One thing which has been a major factor in the expansion of home construction has been the insured mortgage provision of the Federal Housing law. Under this provision banks have been enabled to lend much more on new homes than they would ever be permitted states a lot of facts that indicate that the "great man" in the White House is going ahead backwards. While miners are insisting that they should never go to work "without a contract" the sad reality is that they may stay "out of work" a long time unless they listen to better men than John L. Lewis ever proved himself to be. Is Cuba Our Stepchild? The American people used 5,-540,000,000 pounds of refined sugar in 1947, worth $467,799,000. This represented from 90 to 95 per cent of the total industrial consumption. The sugar refiners in our own cities were able to manipulate affairs and put a cramp in the sugar beet and cane growers in our country. Cuba got the "gravy." We certainly fulfilled all of our obligations when we bought and brought freedom for Cuba and freed it from Spanish misrule. That was a pretty snappy old war. But the American soldiers chased IN THE D LONG AG By MRS. March 20, 1875 We take the following item: "The Pacific Churchman," Rev. W. S. Neales has left Cruz and, by direction of the op, has gone to Anaheim to the venerable Dr. Kellogg Neales' services in Santa Cruz been much appreciated and is expressed on all sides at his vision to leave.

Under this provision banks have been enabled to lend much more on new homes than they would ever be permitted to lend under ordinary circumstances. In this way it has been possible for such institutions to help provide homes for people of very modest means who otherwise would never have homes of their own. In view of the great success of this device it is to be hoped that in seeking to further stimulate home construction, the government will become less inclined to go into direct competition with its citizens and will rely more on the insured mortgage principle to attain this end. Troubles Continue A national correspondent heads an article: "One Harassment Follows Another." Author J. A. Livingston says that the economic outlook from the nation's capital is a case of "sixes and sevens." Brer Livingston starts off the worrying picturing the H-bomb as one of the dangers of the present day, which may mean a chance for us to risk a losing war. That is just another bad headache brought on by Russia, the coal mining strike, threats of a telephone strike, etc., etc. Livingstone knows his onions, and he reminds us that: "Fact-finding boards seem more likely to become commonplace in America," so that more and more arbitrators, mediators and fact-finders will be needed. He is rather hopeless that any formula may come to the top in the near future that can be expected to settle disputes in basic industry. He observes that the President of the United States hasn't thought strike troubles out to a finish and by way of proving his case he This represented from 90 to 95 per cent of the total industrial consumption. The sugar refiners in our own cities were able to manipulate affairs and put a cramp in the sugar beet and cane growers in our country. Cuba got the "gravy." We certainly fulfilled all of our obligations when we bought and brought freedom for Cuba and freed it from Spanish misrule. That was a pretty snappy old war. But the American soldiers chased the Spaniards back into their own rat traps. About all the United States got out of that victory was the flagpole of the American ship Maine which had been sunk in Cuban waters. Some twenty or thirty years ago the American sugar industry was coming into its own. Broad acres of our country grew sugar beets and cane sugar. Those domestic industries were getting along swell. Beet sugar made better farms. Cane sugar became a great industry in many parts of our country. It was used for food and mechanical purposes. It increased land values, higher farm costs, higher wage rates in field and factory—and more taxes. There were factors that accounted for higher production costs in the United States and in tropical areas. The American standard of living was raised many pegs. Then let's turn to Cuba and see what's happening! They are subsidized and favored by the Washington government, and the sugar refiners get more than their part of the swag. U. S. sugar refineries stand flatly behind Cuban sugar; naturally because they are more deeply concerned with big profits than they are in boosting sugar production in our own United States. There are more than 100 beet sugar factories in our country. American industries in our own country are growing and the annual output at the present is sufficient to supply 30,000,000 Americans with food. You may be pleased to know that one hundred thousand American farmers grow sugar beets. Three-eighths of an inch fell on Thursday between 8 and 12 m., coming from the hills in the north and passing the south.

Tuesday was the fifteen hundred and fifty-third birthday anniversary of the good old saint who carried Christianity into Ireland, and it is customary for all Christian people—especially the Irish—to display the green on the seventeenth of March.

Colony Quips (Continued from page 1) Freezing firms are buying groves to insure themselves an adequate supply of the raw product. Others are signing long-term agreements with independent growers for the same reason. There is quite a battle going on down there for more fruit and more planting will undoubtedly take place. On the basis what groves are selling for today in Florida the net cost of growing the fruit will more nearly approximate what we call cost out here and the argument of some here that they can sell their product a lot cheaper than we can does not hold the water it formerly did. The price of the new product is going up instead of down and that points up the argument we have tried to make that we are very late in getting into the act. California growers are in for a lot of soul-searching. It rests squarely on our shoulders whether or not we let Florida run away with the whole business. The big names in the food field are moving deeper into the concentrate business. No one will accuse them of not being smart. We better start getting wise to ourselves.
