IMPROVEMENT TO
AID EMPLOYMENT

A recent conference on unemploy-
ment, attended by official representa-
tives Of cities and states, urged the
speeding-up of public improvement of
q permanent nature, with local COM
munities assuming the task as much
as possible. About three-fourths Of
the cost Of such works, 1t Is said, goes
into the pockets Of labor.
These recommendations are in line
with those OF other and utmilar COM
mittees which have been studying the
employment problem and are seeking
to solve it as far as possible this
winter. Many communities are going
ahead and following the suggestions.
Public buildings, streets and bridges
are being built, along with the most
important Of ali public works-roads.
For the last few years there has
been renewed agitation for year-round
roads In rural sections to connect with
main highways. Modern developments
have made 1t possible to build such
roads. with bitiminous bound surfaces
over a base of local materials, at an
extremely low cost Present condi-
tons, with low construction prices and
a plentitude of labor, have further re-
duced costs.
States and counties can now pro-
vide themselves with the good feeder
roads they need at less expense than
ever beforehand at the same time do
much to mitigate their local un-
employment problems. During 1880
the states surfaced 27.464 miles Of
highway-apd we should equal or sur
pass that record this year. with par
tlcular attention paid to farm-to-
market food" roads.

coorEnArroN-ALL THE TIME

At a time when leaders In the agri-
cultural and business world agree that
farmers cooperatives are the practical
way to solve many farm problems on
business basis. 1t is interesting to
read an editorial In the San Francisco
Chronicle which illustrates how diff
cult it is to get farmers or any other
group Of people to adopt and stand by
measures which are in their own in
terest. The Chronicle says:
Farmers cooperatives have to
struggle with human nature. This is
perhaps their biggest problem, bigger
even than extending markets. The
trouble reported in the raisin pool is
an illustration"
1t seems that the raisin grape crop
has been short and prices picked up.
AS result, according to executives Of
the pool, many member growers try
to eyade their contracts and speculate
on the open market. This has been
too often the experience Of the past
in California and other states where
cooperatives have been run on the
shoals in the same manner. Too many
humans look to cooperative action
only when they are in trouble.
With lack of support in good times,
a cooperative cannot acquire the
strength to deal adequately with bad
times.
Cooperation" says the Chronicle,
sis noble idea-if only it were not
SO hard to get human beings to CO.
operate through the thick as well as
through the thin"
Such situations are object lessons
which impress upon farmers the fact
that cooperative action in any in
dustry must be continuous and not
spasmodic, to get results. Successful
cooperatives in different parts of the
country have demonstrated this and
their members have profited accord
ingly, year in and year out.

DID YOU EVER STOP
TO THINK?
BY Edison R. Waite

IS
T. A. Grehan, advertisement man
ager Of the Dublin drelan6 indie

A Few Words To The Ladies.
"You are the purse-holders. What
a relief that this job is yours It is
a Job entirely suited to you, and let
1t be said without stint that you have
been worthy and truly solicitous
guardian Of that great national insti-
tution--the family purse.
1.-THE man-mind Is unsuited for sue
cessful family purse supervision. It
is, perhaps, well that this is so. Where
you get the man who practices family
purse supervision, one of two things
happens. He either makes q dreadful
mess Of the Job, which is natural and
good to hear, or he makes q success
of 1t. which is and should be extremely
unusual and is bad to hear. A purse
loving man is fellow few natural
minded men want to meet. He is q
poor social unit. Keep him in back
room, please.
"Ah! ladies. hold this vital job for
ever to yourselves. We men don't
want 1t. Speaking as a family man,
we are not capable of successfully
handling the job.
Men readers of this newspaper
please lift your glasses this evening to
the toast:

By the Associated Press
Renewed insiStence upon an extra
session OF Congress to deal with un-
employment and agricultural distress
came today from Senators Walsh, Dem
ocrat, OF Montana and Nye, Repub-
ucan, of North Dakota AdminiStra-
tion leaders maintained their opposi-
tion.
Congress should be here" Senator
Nye said. ito provide means for the
Federal Farm Board to function dur
ing the coming crop year or we will
1ace the gravest emergency in the
history Of our country next Fall.
And Congress should be here de-
voting itself to the unemployment prob
lem, which continues as serious as 1t
was last Winter"
Senator Walsh said he believed a
special session was urgently needed be-
cause OF grave problems confronting
our Nation which should be dealt with
now"
Republican Leader Watson Of the
Senate said he was opposed to spe-
cial assembly. The adjournment of
Congress, he said. brought favorable
psychological reaction" which would be
lost II Congress returned.
"A request similar to that OF the two
Senators was transmitted To President
Hoover Yesterday by John Dewey, Peo-
pies Lobby president.

SWANSON HAS

The aura of glory once synony-

Swanson seems to be growing dim
or perhaps it was an indiscretion
on the part of this lady Of many
screen successes which resulted in
the choice of so trite a story as
"1ndiscreet." showing currently
at Loew's Columbia, as logical
companion to "Trespasser."
We readily forgave her the slap
stick comedy she gave us recently
because we know that even the
best of us sometime revert to type.
Smartly Mounted

Henderson, are given credit for
authorship. production and music
in this newest screen-play of La

sorrow of disillusionment. How

It seems rather gesture of de-

herself with careless youth in the
persons of Barbara Kent and
young Arthur Lake and still at
attempts to set the pace. Ben
