President’s request, so information | here goes, because the President| |wanted him during the election and the troublesome’ labor period that \followed. To that extent there was sacrifice on the part of McGrady. But look at the whole McGrady picture, instead of just a part. He is 65. During 60 of those years not one man in a thousand outside of labor ranks could have told who McGrady was. For 15 vears before his appointment as As- sis t Secretary, he was an organ- izer and lobbyist in Washington for | the American Federation of Labor. It was an important job, but not such a job as to cause private enter- prise to rush to his side with fat offers. Those offers developed after he became Assistant Secretary of Labor and made a name for himself 15 a strike mediator. Don't undercut this man Mec- Grady. He is a bargain at whatever fizure the Radio Corporation of America had to pay to get him as its labor relations man. But the offer came after his government service, not before. P OF MR. LANDIS the same can be said of Landis. He never had an extensive private practice; so he didnt’ give up a $100,000 a year law business to help the Government out of a hole. He was so bright as a Harvard law tudent that Justice Brandeis chose him as his law clerk, a distinction that means something even in these court-baiting days. But justices are allowed only $5,600 for office assis- tapce, and that sum usually must include pay for a stenographer. From that job Landis went back to Harvard as assistant professor of law. He made a rapid climb and was professor of legislation when, in 1933, the Government invited him THE RISE Much CHINA 1S EDEN FOR ARMY BOYS SAYS PRIVATE Ex-Soldier in China Misses His Coolie Boys, So He Says China is a soldier’s paradise, ac- cording to Private James H.

ANSWER: Alaskans know the care used in getting their salmon quxckly into cans in clean, modern canneries. The Industry also strives in other ways to improve its product. Each Spring— cannery superintendents, foremen and |other key employees, representing every packer in the American salmon industry, gather to inspect samples and check on the quality of fish packed in all districts. These efforts are constantly working to raise the high quality of Alaska’s Canned Salmon —leading to larger sales in the States and increased prosperity in Alaska.
