Clarence Cannon, who heads the House Appropriations Com- mittee which should be the watchdog for extravagance, he simply brushed off the Hoover Report, saying his Committee was “two years ahead of Hoover.” That unfortunately is how the Hoover Report is often being received.

In spite of how any- one may feel about the Germans and war, the fact is that Ger- many is the economic heart of per without Germany. The French particularly want to keep the Germans down and they, together with the British, are in- sisting that five important, Ger- man steel plants be dismantled.

This policy hurts the recovery of all Europe and it makes it more difficult to keep Germany out of the hands of the Commun- ists. * The most expensive milk in the world is mouse milk which puns about $10,000 a quart.

The average motor- ist seems to like to put the gas in, himself, and pay a pretty girl who comes up on roller skates. He likes even better the usually 4 cents per gallon cheaper cost. The ordinary gas station pumps about 20,000 gallons a month. The self-service station averages 100,000 gallons a month and runs as high as 400,000, gallons ina month. The established gas deal- ers are up in arms to protect themselves, and already ten} states have passed laws against self-service stations, usually on the grounds of fire hazard. Actu- ally the self-service station, ac- | cording to experience, is fully as safe as the usual type.
