1T sincerely hope that the peo- pie of this nation have learned a lesson that they will never forget. I hope that when serious crime such as this has been committed, those most deeply interested will not make the terrible blunder of calling in legal advisers who have had no experience in criminal in- vestigations and high power crooks.

 "There'll be no Hoover band wagon," he cried. "We'll tear it's wheels off and start a band wagon of our own. wi thred wheels and gilded angels on the sides"
 His mood changed and he sat down and unused a moment. His hair is iron gray and sets off blue eyes and even but mobile-featured face. He wore white slaclss, white hose, brown and white oxfords. a white shirt and blue bow tie.

FORCED VACATION
WITH NO PAY

st. Paul, Mimi. (ILNS)-The pay
less vacation plan recently proposed
by Gov. Floyd B. Olson has been
made effective subject to a change
in the original plan by providing that
employees who receive less than $100
a month shall take but one weeks
voluntary vacation without pay.
Other employees will take voluntary
payless vacation of two weeks.
81 am strongly opposed to wage
cuts as such and shall continue to
oppose them," Olson said in an
nouncing adoption of the vacation
plan.
However, there is no state law
which grants any vacation to any
state employe. 1t has been the Gus
tom and practice in the past to grant
vacations to state employees with pay.
In view of the staggering of employ
ment by private industry and the
cutting of wages by public and pri-
vate institutions, there should be no
complaint on the part of officers or
employees of the state government to
taking their vacations without pay"

Green Says Congress Must Provide
Jobless Relief Before Adjourning
WET TIDE
Rolls High and Repeal
Makes Big Gains

Washington, D. c. (ILNS)-Repeal
sentiment has rolled up to such an
extent this week that there now seems
definite prospect that the current
session of congress may have placed
before it a prohibition repeal amend
ment.
Three outstanding utterances by
members of congress helped drive
new nails into the coffin of the
eighteenth amendment and to en-
hance prospects for modification of
the Volstead act as an interim step.
Senator Borah interpreted the re-
publican platform plank to mean out
right repeal.
Speaker John N. Garner, of the
house, came out for repeal in a strong
statement, while his state party con-
vention went wet, losing to the vets
one of their standby states.
Senator Norris made up the trio,
with his declaration that the eigh-
teenth amendment has failed.
1t is pointed out here that either
convictions are coming to a head rap
idly in these party convention days,
or else courage is being found to give
utterance to convictions long held.
In any event, the flood tide is roll
ing up to wipe out Volsteadism at a
date that year ago seemed unlikely
if not impossible.
Speaker Garner in his statement
said: Il have never believed it sound
or workable, and it should be repeal
ed" He called attention to the fact
that he had voted against the eigh-
teenth amendment at the time of its
adoption.
Among others coming out against
prohibition during the week was Gov
George White, of Ohio, who declared
for repeal and for immediate modi-
fcation to legalize "beer of good
quality"

employers to seek new ways to
"save labor" Predictions that re-

their foundation in today's happen

To offset forced unemployment
there must be shorter work-day and
a shorter work week.

But for today the 30-hour week is
the available remedy.
