A NEW STATE?

There is talk of state-rght at time
when all energies are directed toward consOlida-
ton of public offices to reduce the governmental
overhead.
A part of Texas, ruled by ''Ma" Ferguson,
and three Oklahoma counties, over which alfalfa
Bill" Murray holds forth, might be united in
new commonwealth under the provisions of bill
before the Texas legislature.
The Texas measure asks that SIS counties COM
prisng the Texas Panhandle be permitted to
withdraw from the state to organize new COM
monwealth with Amarillo as its capital
Oklahoma would be asked to contribute three
counties-Beaver, Texas and Cmar0n, making
I'D its "Panhandle' to the new state. This narrow
strip, notorious as a criminal hideout in Indian
Territory days became a part of Oklahoma when
it was admitted to statehood in 1907.
This strip of Oklahoma has in recent years
become the heaviest wheat-producing area in the
state. The same is true of the Texas "Panhandle,'
formerly cattle country but whose leading crop
now is wheat If new state were made out OF
this region it would be virtually one big wheat
field, much more so at least than any other state.
The proposed new state also would include the
worlds greatest natural gas reservoir, some o.
which now is pped as far Chicago.
Besides the legislation that would be necessary,
citizens of these sections of the two states would
have to vote favorably before new state could
be carved out of the old ones.-AnderSon Is. c.

Sir Oswald and his colleagues
are convinced that the present

Britain to chaos and disaster.
They hope to have gained suffi-

to be moved to permanent accom-

This commonwealth never made much real prog

state government from the liquor traffic. That was
in 1908. Most of our advances in education and

THE CITIES TURN TO THEIR UNCLE
SAM
(By BRUCE CATION

One of the most interesting things that
are happening these days is the profound
shift that seems to be taking place in the
relationship between federal and city gov
ernments.
Just where we are heading, in this field
is not yet clear. The things that have al
ready happened, coupled with the devel-
opments that lie just ahead, look some
times like the outlines of very deep and
comprehensive change in our whole sys-
TEN of local government.
Consider few of the ways in which the
federal government is getting its hands on
things that always have been considered
strictly the cities own business.
Vast amounts of money from the federal
treasury are going and will go to the cities
not only to feed the poor, eradicate
slums, build houses and finance other pub
lie works, but to enable the cities to pay
their teachers, their police and their other
employees.
The gangsters who have overawed the
authorities in so many cities are being at
tackled by Uncle Sam. Advices from Wash
ingtOn indicate that the government will
seek broader powers than now exist SO that
it may tackle this evil more effectively
than is now possible.
Such cities as Detroit have petitiOned
the federal government for new kind OF
relief in the matter of municipal bonds.
Some cities not only cannot pay their bills,
but cannot carry their bonded indebted
ness; and here, again, Uncle Sam has been
asked to come to the rescue.
On top of all of these things, the admin
istratiOn's plan for economic reorganiza-
ton, as exempliied in the Muscle Shoals
Tennessee Valley program, looks forward
to nothing less than redistribution of the
cOuntry's population, scaling down in the
physical size of some cities, a transplanta-
ton of people in a way that might ulti-
mately become tremendous in scope.
Add all of these things together and you
get an entirely new picture of local gov
eminent. The old order, under which local
governments were to all intents and pur-
poses completely Independent, seems to
be dissolving with amazing speed. A new
lineup is in the making, and it may pro
duce changes that will alter the whole
face of our society.

WASHINGTON. - The Republi'

lied.
GrOanings and grumblings attend
the efforts Of the eX-presidents
friends to hold control Of the or
ganizatiOn and retain party lead
ership, but those who protest can't
get around the fact that Hoover still
stands before the world as the THU
lar leader Of the G.. o. p. and that
there is no other outstanding lead
cr in the party to whom they can
turn.
Although the idea Of Hoover's
denomination and election now
seems at least as fantastic as SINH
lar ideas about AL Smith after
1928, the strong Republican anti
Hoover element is convinced that
the erStwhile chief executives
friends are building toward that
objective. Disscnsion in the ranks
has been increased by the recent
organization of the Republican
Federal Associates" a campaign
group dominated entirely by cab
met members and assistant cab
met members of the Hoover adj
ministration.
Just why this body should have
been set up alongside the Republi-
can national committee and the
Republican congressional cam
paign committees is not clear I'M
less the aim was to retain influence
and control within the party for

The atmosphere at the press
conference was tense with eX-

officers informed us Of prelnm-
mary movements by japanese
columns.
Trainloads of munitions, food,
motor trucks and supplies and
material of all sorts are stream
ing out of here for the Jehol
front. Important among these
are a vast number OF Chinese
two-wheeled carts, of which Man
churia has been drained, for
transporting army supplies IN Je-
hOl.
These carts are accompanied by
the drivers and animals to pull
them. The drivers are being
given high pay for the duration
of their services. In addition
they are furnished with food for
themselves and their animals.

for sending the bill to committee, where it might
have been modified and stripped of its potency.
Senator Reynolds voted to send the bill to commit

he voted for the bill passed.
He voted for the cost-of-prOduction amendment
to the omnibus farm bill, although it was known
at the time that the president disapproved of this

the farm BILL remonetizing silver in the ratio 10
gold of Is to /. The president was opposed to
that action, too which may explain why it was
defeated in this instance and later adopted in a
greatly modified form.
Senator Reynolds voted for the bonus and for
the Bankhead amendment to the Muscle Shoals
BILL both of which lost and both of which were not
acceptable to the president. Indeed, unless the
junior senator may carry out the presidents pro-
gram by voting an almost UNMARRIED Aye he is like
ly again to run counter to the program. Only on
one occasion involving bills or amendments of any
consequence has Senator Reynolds found it neces-
sary to say Nay.-Charlotte News
