The telephone is going back in t Many farmers are reordering the service which they reluctantly gave up in the past few years. Others are to have a telephone foe the first time. But all of them will profit from the telephone's time, effort and money-saving services. A few cents saved by one call, a sizeable profit made because of another--and soon the telephone has more than paid for itself.

I t J h u t a ot$ ers unbosom their real sentiments, the present plans are not so extensive as they would hare John Public believe Conversations among the powers at Capitol HSU reveal a determined effort to hustle revenue legislation and •relief appropriations through with the sole object of shutting down the noisy law factory. A deal is now in the works which wift permit the House to dodge responsibility for not meeting the President's tax proposals. The House 4ax bill is designed to minimize criticism from the voters. The Senate has passed several measures with the knowledge the House will obligingly shelve the papers for the session. In exchanged it seems the cards arq stacked to have the Senate re-write the House tax draft in accordance with the needs of the hour. The Upper House may take the responsibility which their brethero evade in approving a drastic revenue measure including lowering of exemp-' tions of personal incomes to enrich the public treasury. Allotment of large funds for flood relief in eastern areas has temporarily suspended pressure in the iSenate for a quick and thorough probe of the Works Progress Administration. iMeanwhile, Democratic wheel-horses Interested in campaign an fries, believe Secretary of Agriculture Wallace env ed when he endeavored to avoid mak> ing known the identities and connections of those who drew laree bounties from the now defunct AAA. The fact that the request for information came from Senator Vandenburg, of Michiean, regarded as the compromise Republican candidate for the Presidency, apparently scared Mr. Wallace who is always alert to political implications. It is claimed that the smaller beneficiaries of the government's "plowing under" policy if informed cf banks and corporations which harvested Federal checks might fiot appreciate the gifts of money distributed to rural areas. Comparisons make trouble. The greatest mobilization of Ameriwopkers in hisfcori wiH be -fjjjlished sometime thi summer. Not since the registration under the draft law has such a gigantic "undertaking been staged by the Federal authorities. Instead of a call for military service, the 27 million workers will be asked to register and obtain identification disks or cards to qualify for the benefits of unemployment insurance and old age pensions under the Social Security Act. Twelve regional offices with branches in various states will soon be established as preliminary to the nation-wide registration of ^workers. Sugeestions for positive identification through finger printing has been discarded as unwise. Collection of payroll taxes and other assessments will be handled by the Bureail of Internal Revenue. The chiseling segment of business which refuses to report and the transient worker migrating across the states lines present a problem of no mean size. Among the hundreds of bills which are buried in the pigeon-holes of committees there is a measure by Representative Melvin J. Mass of Minnesota. He introduced a bill last week making it unlawful for any Senator or Representative "to recommend any person for appointment to or promotion in the classified civil service of the United States, and prescribing a penalty for its vialation." This proposal strikes a deathblow to patronage so important to preserving the encumbents in elective offices. Take iaway a politician's influence with job seekers and he loses caste in his own district. • • • . • Jepson of Evanston spent the weekend with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. C. J. Jepson.
