Some folk in Denton are hesi-

of their children for the scholastic
census. A few even hold to the be-
lief that the listing of the children
will increase taxes. As a matter of
fact, the only result to come from
the placing of the names ot the
children on thie census list will be
more money for the local school
system. The state has been paying
$17.50 per year for each child of
school age, and every one listed
brings that much more money to a

KEEPING VP
There are many parents who,
from lack of time or opportunity,
have not acquired what seems to
them an adequate cultural founda-
tion for bringing up their children.
They are ashamed of Confessing
their Ignorance when the children
enter school and start asking ques-
tions, and would be glad to find
some quick means of teaching
themselves at least, the bare rudi-
ments of knowledge necessary to
save their faces.
It really ,la not hard to get the
general iformarion necessary for
areas where methods of handling
wildlife and environment, and
methods of game management and
utilization may be tested and where
landowners, hunters and others In-
terested in wildlife production may
see examples of such work; to car-
ry on educational work, making re-
suits of investigations and demon-
strations available to the public, and
promoting greater interest in wild-
life production and in practical
methods of making a surplus avail-
able for utilization. One of the co-

For every share of Its stock, A. T. & T pays out

A. T. & T. is a holding company. It owns almost

country, such as the New York Telephone Co. or the
Mountain States Telephone and Telegraph Co.
It also owns the Western Electric Company, of
which Edgar S. Bloom is president. In giant plants
in Chicago and Kearney, N. J., this company makes
telephone equipment, such as phones and switch-
• boards. It sells 90 per cent of its product to the A.

buys material for them all, and holds priceless patents

The A. T. & T. provides patent rights, special knowl-

to the tegional operating companies it owns. Those
relationships are very complex, and are one point the

For instance, the > large Graybar Electric Co., a
"competing" maker of electrical equipment, was sold
by A. T. & T. in 1928, but long and involved testi-
mony leaves still some doubt whether it is really com-
peting.

MANY WELL-TO-DO TEXANS
Secretary Morgenthau reported to Congress last
week the' salaries of the heds of a humber of Texas
corparatioas. Previous reports of the ecrethry to
Congtesshave given some rather interesting infor-
mation t6‘ those who like such facts about the income
of other Texans who occasionally are in the public
eye.
The latest list of a’hundred or so names reveals that
Texas has quite a few business men who earn nice
salaries from the corporations which employ them,
and also that some of the men with nice titles don't
get such fancy salarles, ,
Texas would be better off ”if it had twice as many
men who earned executive salaries, for men who earn
good mon-y spend most of it for food, clothing, auto-
mobiles, hired help and in dozens of other ways that
put money Into circulation. One reason for the finan-
cial leadership of Dallas is the large number at branch
managers of eastern and northern business houses
who earn good salaries.

SANCTIONS ONLY IRRITATE ITALY
Another peace theory, given the acid test, lent
showing up so well. Those who planned the League
of Nations thought that the nations of the world
could stop wars at aggression by imposing economic
and Anan lal sanctions which would cripple the ag-
gressor nation or nations. Then, if that didn’t work,
military sanctions could be used.
While the League has indicted Italy for starting a
war, the only major step to force Mussolini to dis-
continue his military campaign in Ethiopia was a
partial agreement to economic sanctions. Instead of
having the desired result of forcing Italy to recon-
sider. imposition of the sanctions only irritated Italy,
due to the inconvenience of getting much needed war
materials.
The United States, not a member of the League,
has helped smooth Italy's path of conquest by sup-
ptying five times as much oil to February, 1936, as
in February, 1935. In addition, 5382.000 worth of
American oil went to Italian Africa, while to Feb-
ruary of 1933, the shipments to Africa were negligi-

Doctor Townsend and his fellow missionaries of
the gospel of S200-amonth for everybody over 60 years
of age are misguided in the light of the plain, figures
found to all acknowledge authorities on the national
wealth and the national income. There simply Isn't
that much money to be got to the way they propose
to get it. But most of these people are honest and
sincere. They deserve to be kindly dealt with. Con-
gress. on the ol her iba nd. is trying to smear them and
their cause so that Congressmen will never have to
stand up openly And courageously and vote down
their demands if Dr Townsend were a bad man in-
stead of a good one, and if the Townsend Clubs were
full of graft instead of full of hopes aroused by rosy
