NIRA! And here's one from Clarence Dlessner, West Fairview: "Mr. Roundabouter: This thing I enclose is what 'came out of the wash" when I tried to write an NRA poem. Let's not insult art by calling it a poem it's a jingle." NIRA Laughing children, greasy men; Overalls in the wash again. Young swains buying flannel pants Girls are dated for the dance. Old "can" running once again; Missing only now and then.

IOU's so long neglected Slow, but surely are collected. "Brother, can you spare a dime," Out of style and out of rhyme. Cigarets no longer rolled; Boldly bought with hoarded gold. Water, gas and light all paid, Bill collectors unafraid. Landlord happy fixing roof; Rent in sight new Job the proof.

Fruit and nuts upon the table; Daddy's pay day once more stable. Babies eating ice cream cones, Pood for undernourished bones. Everybody says hello; Snubbed you not so long ago. NRA has made a rule; Everybody's back in school. "JOIN THE NRA" Justin Time, a welcome addition to the Contributors Corps of Roundabout Harrisburg, writes Time has evolved the familiar "Westward Ho!" into the newer "Join the NRA." But only on the surface is it new; basically it is the same.

Its deep, rich timbre still holds forth chal lenge to the adventurer, the ro manticist and serious minded alike. To a world beset with a serious economic ailment this is the only practical remedy that has yet been presented. It is not set forth as a cure all or an overnight healer. But if we heed the preliminary edicts and vow a faithful adherence to the underlying principles, the implied tenets; time shall certainly find us far removed from those petty ills that rob us of the joy Of sane living. Let us therefore visualize the new empire limned against the horizon and journey thither; our actions encouraging those who still stand dejectedly by the smouldering ruins of their vanished glory.

Sweet as it shall be to sense the newer freedom; it shall be doubly so unto those whose efforts have made it possible. JUSTIN TIME. HOW? The little boy, according to Jake postcard, met his first ear of green corn, said: "Daddy, how do we get the beans off the stick?" VETERANS APOLOGIZE FOR LONG'S ATTACK 'By Associated Press) Milwaukee, Aug. 30. Delegates to the national encampment of Veterans of Foreign Wars went on with their convention business today inclined to dismiss Senator Huey Long's outburst against the press as a personal quarrel which did not reflect their opinion.

Although the Senator preceded his speech here yesterday with a caustic tirade against Milwaukee newspapers because of the attention they had given the now famous cut over his left eye, the convention was on record as sorry it all happened. 1 Treasury Receipts Washington, Aue. 30.

New gold may now be shipped freely from the United States under the Drovisions of President Roosevelt's decree, but noaraers remain in just as much discredit as ever with the Adminis tration. Thus gold miners, ranging from those who have panned rocky mountain creeks with kitchen sieves to the great corporations with elaborate chemical processes find that they can make 30 per cent, more dollars today than they could yes terday. But gold in the form of money or gold that was bullion at the time the embargo was declared still must remain in this United States and no person, excepting collectors or those specially ncensea, may noid more than $100 gold.

"There is a widespread and growing feeling among milk producers in Pennsylvania that they are not getting a square deal," the Governor said.

Asserting the inauirv will start at once, the Governor added: "The milk consumers of Philadelphia in particular, and of the whole State in general, have a right to know whether or not they are being treated fairly in this matter, or whether unfair and excessive profits have and are being made at their expense. Ana tne same is true 01 the milk producers, who have suffered untold hardships because of the low price of their milk All they want is decent treatment, and they are entitled to no less." MRS.
