quite a large number of beautiful
pieces of hand-work done by iJhe
Mexican women. So many of these
pieces were so small and dainty
and the work was beautifully done.
Rev. and Mrs. Halliday are doing
a fine work there in their efforts

ministration’s “shock troops’’; the
outstanding hero in this battle to
decide whether or not the United
States is to remain a great free
democracy. (And our freedom
and democracy depend upon the
outcome of the war against in
flation.)
We hatfe all read about Mr.
Leon Henderson. We have all
read that he is an alien, born in
Russia and sent over herp to “im
prove” our form of government.
That he is a Communist— and if
given any latitude will make him
self dictator of this country.
Sounds like melodrama—and is."
The Henderson family have
lived in this country for 200
years. Some member of that
family has fought in every Ameri
can war. Leon Henderson was a
captain in the first World war.
His father was a Methodist mini-
strt*, and the son is an exception
to the old adage. With hard
work and a big brain he has
worked his way up through life;
in the true American fashion, to
the unenviable position which he
now holds. He is a Wilsonian
Democrat in the sense that he
worked for the nomination and
the election of Woodrow Wilson.
He is a Mason.
Thus endeth a great deal of
“baloney” about a brave man who
is “taking it hard on the chin'
to save us all from horrors which
we seem only vaguely to appre
ciate.
Mr. Henderson’s present position
requires brazenness, assertiveness
and agressiveness. Any one of
these qualities makes for unpopu
larity. The President obviously
chose him for this unpleasan *
job because he had all these
qualities—plus greht courage, ec
onomic foresight ' and terrific
strength of character.
Added causes for his present
unpopularity, are—his appoint
ment to office of men and women,
regardless of their political affili
ations; and—his recent warning
to all employees in the Office of
Price Administration, that they
will lose their jobs if they engag?
in political activity.
Mr. Henderson knows what in
flation will do to our war effort
—and to us. He is /fighting a
great fight and he must know
that the people of this country
are behind him. Maybe not the
so-called “farm bloc” in congress;
or the labor unioneers—but the
farmer and the laborer and the
rest of the American people are
“pulling for him.” And if -hii
opponents don’t believe this—they
should read the Gallup poll;
