Horticulturists Predict these new “McGredy” roses will be popular with Ameri- can flower lovers, stating that about 26 per cent of the commonly known hybrid teas in the United States today are of Irish origin. Many of them were developed by the McGredys who have a long “MeGredy’s Triumph” Blossoms foliage and J line of famous roses to their credit. The 1938 Irish rose varieties are named “McGredy’s Triumph,” “McGredy’s Rex Anderson.” “Mc- Gredy’s Pride.” “Dorothy Mc- Gredy.” and “McGredy’s Pink.” The bloom of “McGredy’s Tri- umph” is of brilliant strawberry, blushed scarlet and orange. The “Rex Anderson” rose is white with an overcast of ivory, slightly deeperat the center. ~McGredy’s ade~ has orange and salmon- luk blossoms, veined with. saf- e¥ellow.

The planes left Selfridge Field, Michi gan, and roared over the Florida city in four hours and a half. The" eight machines were accompanied by squadrons of smaller bombers and little pursuit ships.) They brought more than a hundred men to join the ground crews during the air manoeuvres. DRYS GAIN On the anniversary of National Prohibition, Senator Sheppard in- variably arises in the Senate and delivers an oration on the virtues of Prohibition. His performances are the cause of good-natured joshing, but the dry forces, after four years’ legalized sale of alco- holie beverages, are taking the aggressive all over the nation. Dry sentiment is expressed re- peatedly at the polls where there have been 5,000 dry victories in 7,000 local option fights. Meanwhile, reasons sentiment are sought by wets, who generally agree that ele- ments within the liquor industry that they have had. Captain Wilford S. Alexander, head of the Fed- for this trepeatedly pointed out that the liquor business is like no other business in the world. He warn- ed distillers to stop claims that their product is healthful, that it aids digestion and to keep women and children out of their adver- tising. He insists that the spec- tacle of young girls and women drinking at bars is “abhorrent to the moral sense of the public.” AMUSEMENTS A study of 9407 American families in 140 villages showed the Bureau of Home Economics that out of every dollar spent for amusements, twenty-nine cents goes to the movies. The average amount spent for “pictures” was $12 in New England villages, $10 in the Central and Atlantic States, $16 in the Mountain and Plains states, $15 in the Pacific states, and $16 for white families of the Southern states. 3.500.000 Aubrey Williams, director of the National Youth Administra- tion, says that 3,500,000 youths are unable to obtain high school educations in this country be- cause their parents cannot afford it He testified before a Senate sub-committee conducting hear ings on the bill by Senator Lun. deen, of Minnesota, to use $300. 000,000 in Federal funds for veea- tional and educational traizing af persons sixteen to twenty-five years of age. Mr. Williams, how- ever, thought this amount war probably too much. JOBLESS Total unemployment in Janu- ary was estimated at 10,973,000 by the American Federation of to deliver a short address et Gettysburg, Pennsylvama, during the observance of the 75th anni- versary of the Battle of Gettys- burg. TAX MONEY POURS IN Income tax receipts, which dropped below three-quarters of. a billion dollars during the de- pression that followed 1929, are expected to set a record total dur- ing the present fiscal year. Ac- cording to Treasury estimates, they will total more than $2,600,- 000,000. IF WAR If a general war develops in Europe. this country will have a hard time insulating itself from the effects of shifting foreign trade, and the flight of frightened capital. The Treasury’s policy of sterilizing gold imports that ex- ceed $100,000,000 in any quarter, is expected to cushion the impact somewhat. NO SHIPS YET The billion-dollar Navy Author- ization Bill, the subject of so much deba does not provide y funds for the construction of ships. It merely defines the top limit of the American fleet. Con- gressional appropriations for con- struction will be necessary before a single warship can be built. MORGAN DISMISSED The dismissal of Chairman Ar- thur E. Morgan from the Board of the TVA probably means the be- ginning of a legal fight to test the power of the President to remove such an executive officer. At- torney-General Cummings advis- ed the President that he had au- thority to act. Chairman Morgan refused to participate in several hearings held by the President, who investigated his squabble with the other members of the Board and insisted that the Presi- dent ha > power to remove him.
