There is no one pattern for develâ€" oping the sheer joy and delight in poetry, which ought to be the priviâ€" lege of every child and which would shed so much color and light over childhood days.

But this sense of rhythm, with the proper exposure to good poetry may evenâ€" tually result in a genuine and happy appreciation of the greatest works. This simple poetry, however, must be the true authentic poetry, not cheap imitation, and there is no exâ€" cuse for ignoring that since poems from Mother Goose, poems by Steâ€" venson, Rosetti, Carroll and a multiâ€" tude of others are accessible to anyâ€" one. _ "Under the Tent of the Sky" â€" Brewton.

To receive the fullest enjoyment from poetry one ought to read it aloud. It is with poetry as with music; very few are able to enâ€" joy the reading of music. One must play it and hear the tones. minutive size. i So it is also with poetry for small children. It may sometimes seem too simpleâ€"too obvious, but it is just as important, just as necessary in the life of a child as poetry for older readers, perhaps even more so as it forms the foundation for more maâ€" ture appreciation in the future.

In fact, both the House and Senate Committee Reports on the bil lcontained this sentence: "It should be carefully noted, however, that the President is given no right to reduce or increase any excise cuty." _ Moreover, during the deâ€" bate on the floor of the Senate, Senâ€" »tor Pat Harvison, (D), of Missisâ€" sippi, in charge of the bill, made this statement: "It will be noted that, so far as tariff rates are conâ€" cerned, the President has the power to increase or lower them 50 por cont; but as to excise taxes, they may be continued. It was the inâ€" tention of those who framed the legâ€" islation, and of the House in passâ€" ing the bill, that they would be frozâ€" en; in other words, they might not be modified." On four productsâ€"coal, oil, lumâ€" ber and copper â€" Congress has placed special excise taxes on imâ€" portations. They have been singled out for special treatment, indepenâ€" dent of the Tariff Act. While the Tariff Act does not require renewal by Congress, these particular excise taxes do. In other words, Congress sought to deal specially with these four products and to retain control over the importations of them. ‘ Washington, D.C., Feb. 3 â€" With an estimated oil production of 22 million barrels in 1988, Illinois has rapidly become fourth in rank of the 24 oil producing statesâ€"Texas, California, Oklszshoma and lllinois. In view of this development, makâ€" ing oil an important commodity oi our State‘s economy, it automaticâ€" ally becomes the duty of the lllinois Senators and Congressman, regardâ€" less of their districts, to give special attention to all factors in national legislation pertaining to and affectâ€" ing this particular product. After all, the people of Illinois have no one at Washington except their Senators and Congressmen to look after their special interests. Illinois has a general interest in the Reciprocal Trade Agreement program, shortly to be before Conâ€" gress for renewal. We recognize that what will benefit or adversely affect the nation as a whole benefits or adversely affects our State. But, naturally and justifiably, we have certain special interests in this proâ€" gram where the important products of our State, agricultural and indusâ€" trial, are involved. We cannot here discuss each and every product; but because of an unusual feature of the program as it pertains to oil, as well as Illinois‘ new interest in this product, a discussion of this commodity in connection with the Reciprocal Trade Agreements seems merited. \ CALL _ Larson‘s Stationery : Store REPAIRS â€" RENTALS â€" SALES Highland Park 567 By Raiph E. Church Representative, 10th Congres In Waskington E. K. CATTON l pewriter Regardless of the merits of the case, the President and the State Department having taken steps abâ€" solutely contrary to what Congress intended, when the Reciprocal Trade Agreement Act comes up for reâ€" newal it behooves Congress to make the law definite.. This is but another illustration of the kind of thing that takes place when there is a delegaâ€" tion of power and Congress is not careful in making the statute "airâ€" tight" to prevent the administrating agency from exercising more power than it should. It has been contended that the oil imported is not competitive, being of a different quality. But the facts do not show that to be the case. It has also been argued that these imâ€" portations, resulting from a reducâ€" tion in the excise taxes, have reâ€" duced consumer cost. As a matter of fact, the price of crude oil is higher for the 7 year period prior to the imposition of the excise taxes than since their enactment. ntered into an agreement with Venâ€" ezuela, which does not expire until Dec. 15, 1942, whereby large imporâ€" tations of oil have been made. In 1939, for instance, the imports of oil from Venezuela amounted to 56,â€" 000,000 barrels. And there is the very interesting fact that Venezuela oil importers are solely three big companies, two American and one Dutch. (Standard Oil of New Jerâ€" sey, Gulf and Dutch Shell). from the general tariff law has had and will continue to have an adâ€" verse affect on lllinois oil producers. In 1939 we had in the United States «n exportable.surplus of something like 200 million barrels. Yet the President and the State Department the State Department have proâ€" ceeded to make reductions. It has been said by two Senators, both of whom favor the reciprocal trade program as a whole, that reduction or excise taxes by the Executive constitutes "a serious and substanâ€" tial breach of faith with the Conâ€" cise tax on oil, the President and This "breach of faith" in chang YOUR WIRING CONTRACTOR AND PUBLIC SERVICE COMPANY OF NORTHERN ILLINOIS THE HIGHLAND PARK PRES3 By Special Cooperation of Local Wiring Contractors Ideal Fuel for Winter Comfort IEueerric ounet$ _wow cost LESs!
