In advance of-s ich election, however, the tax payers are entitled.to‘certain information before | assuming more public debt and increasing the tax! load at a time when conservation and thrift seem: imperative.

Already 498 murders have. been com- § mitted in 13 large cities this year. And in some cities there have been more murders in the first half of this year. than in all of last year. Criminologists disagree as to what is making murder so popular. But all pretty generally agree as'to what will help make it unpopular. It is this: . .

The pest makes railroad tracks so slippery that Canadian Pacific trains are stalled until locomo- tives clear the rails with a steam jet of 200 pounds pressure. In your own home yous are fighting other insects mosquitoes. For insect season has started. With wild beasts conquered and virtually ex- terminated, insects remain as man’s greatest foe, next to germs. The real wars of the future will be fought between man and insects. Untold annoyance, disease and damage are moth, boll weevil, mosquito, bed bug, ant, army worm, green bug, louse, flea and \grasshopper.
