Says he: 'The lands of the Chaco, both Bolivian and Argentine, are richer on the whole than our lands, very fine for cotton, corn, sugar and all kinds of vegetables.

Old Greeley did not advise young Americans to go south to Argentine or north to Canada, but to "go west," in the United States. That is still good advice. You can succeed if you go east, west, north, south, anywhere between the Rio Grande and Canadian border; success depends on what you take with you, in your head, not on what you collect on the way. WFBC Tonight I1''1'' Ice Cream Freezers In 2, 3 and 6 Quart Sizes Also Water Coolers For All Purposes and Purses I I The United States navy has ordered 191 "bomber" airplanes; cheerful small news. It is to be hoped that the government is trying to build bomber planes able to fly any ocean.

If war came our oomDing operations could be carried on in countries across the Atlantic or the Pacific. We should not want to do any bombing in America. After the first experiment, no country would send any ships within easy bombing or submarine range of these shores. Sullivan Hardware Co.

Lu 'n' Em, radio's original back-fence gossips, will return to the air with Ted Fio-Rito and his orchestra over a coast-to-coast NBC-WFBS network at 8:30 o'clock tonight. The program, titled Clara, Lu 'i)' Em and Ted Ffb-Rito's orchestra, will be half an hour in length and will be broadcast every Friday night at the same time under sponsorship of Frigidaire dealers. WFBC will carry all of these weekly commercial series, adding this high-spot program to a roster of national big-time airings such as the Magis Key of RCA. Alka Seltzer's National Barn Dance. The Voice of Firestone and Fred Waring and His Pennsylvanians for Ford Motor dealers.

The nationally famed comedy team returns to radio after a five-month absence during which Clara (Mrs. Paul c. Meade) became the mother of a baby boy and Em i Mrs. John Mitchell) took a vacation in California and Mexico. As for Lu (Mrs.

Howard Berolzheimer), she took advantage of the unaccustomed leisure to give all the Friday afternoon teas she hadn't found time to give during the five and half previous years of radio broadcasting. With them, the three gossiping girls of the airwaves will bring back their mythical families and all the other Clara, Lu 'n' Em characters so well known to listeners by refer 1 IjH (Turf M4.7S nd lt7S) VJr ESES! i -131s Our country would need the world's biggest flock of the fastest, most destructive speed planes to drive off invading bombers, and such a fleet of long-range bombing planes as would enable Uncle Sam to say to the world: "We want only peace, we hate war. I do not want to hurt anybody. But I do ask you to come over and see for yourselves that if you were foolish enough to attack the United States, I could, within a week, destroy every city in your country." To say that and be able to do it would prevent war. ence.

BATTERY ELECTRIC CO. 300 Buncombe St. Phone 1376 Detroit reports that the Black Legion forces included a "torch squad," organized to burn down houses of those not approved by "Black Legion" authorities. Members of the squad admit burning one house. That sort of thing happens in a country unable to deal with a crime wave.

Our only excuse is that crime was financed by gigantic earnings of bootlegging in prohibition. Strikes are old, often dull; this one is "news." At' Granada, Spain, picturesque Moors, hired to charm snakes with music, went on strike for more money after one Moor got a raise of 30 cents a day. Can you imagine the surprise of those Moors if the snakes, should go on strike with "we refuse to be charmed, unless we get more mice," or whatever they eat. 1 "Where' My Grip?"

You are told, and it can be proved, that while men have made good progress in science and knowledge of all kinds, the progress has been very slight inside of the human skull.

The wife of a missionary returned from the Congo region is the first white woman that ever recovered from the bite of a tse-tse fly. Scorpions, rattlesnakes, mad dogs may bite you, and you recover.
