WASHINGTON, March Fl.
In his message to congress to-
day Roosevelt definitely came
out advocating the herding of
some 100000 unemployed men
and youth into forced labor camps
under military regulations. He pro-
posed program that he called
direct attack" on the unemployment
problem. The program is as follows:
% The establishment of the Of
flee of federal relief administrators;
a. Enrolment OF workers for
quick public employment;
81 Grants to states for relief
work;
"a Creation of broad public
works labor program.
Speaker of the House Henry T.
Rainey referred the message to the
congress labor committee, where it
will be ready for reporting back to
the house in short time.
Doesn't Touch JObless Problem.
The bill calls specifically for a fed
eral relief dictator who shall sup
ervise the creation Of what Is called
Civilian conservation corps" COM
posed of unemployed conscripted at
hunger rations for work in the for
est preserves, on the river levees to
control floods" and similar projects.
1t also provides for grants to indi-
vidual states for public works." I'M
der the control of the federal relief
! dictator who shall scan requests for
grants and check the wisdom and eff
| ficiency of their use" 1t Is estimated
that when the whole plan is in full
operation it will result in taking into
forced labor camps some ESQ 900 men
and youth, many Of whom will take
the places of federal employees who
are being laid Off
The balance OF the tens Of millions
of toiling masses facing hunger will
not be affected at all by the plan"
Beat Down All Wages.
This work is to be carried out I'M
der the control and direction of the
existing machinery of the depart
ments of war, interior, labor and ag-
rieIlture. 1t is certain that tens of
thousands of federal employees who
are now engaged in forestry, agi-
culture and flood control work will
be laid off and their places taken by
unemployed workers driven to &c -.
labor.
Roosevelt adds insult to injury by
admitting that the material gains to
the unemployed will be slight, and
declares: More important, how
ever, than the material gains will be
the moral and spiritual value Of such
work. We can eliminate to some ex-
tent at least, the threat that enforced
idleness brings to spiritual and moral
stability"

a DAY
~ BRUCE CATION

CIR HENRY MORGAN was
~ rough, tough Englishman, and
he harried the Spanish main like
destroying angel.
He attained responsibility, in the
end, and lived to be touchy about
his reputation; but aside from that
he was very fair sample of the
successful seventeenth century pi-
rate leader, and his biography, "Sir
Henry Morgan" by w. Adolphe
Roberts, makes exciting reading.
Morgan went out to Jamaica
when the colony was young and
soon made himself a leader of the
buccaneers.
He was free-lance for a time,
but later he sailed as a recognized
British sea captain-although his
most famous exploit, the sacking
of Panama, took place after Eng
land and Spain had signed a treaty
of Rpeace, and Morgan seems to
haVN known it at the time.
Sea fights had a small part in
his program. He was raider. in
stead, bringing landing parties
ashore to storm Notifications and
pillage cities.
He was a wild roisterer, an i'm
petuous fighter, a bit of a strategist
at times and cruel cutthroat
when occasion demanded. Bloody
maSsacres, torturings and uncon-
trolled debaucherieS get plenty OF
space in his life story.
The latter part of the book drags
a bit-chiefly, one suspects, because
the latter part of Morgan'S life also
dragged.
He was knighted, he becan>>
governor of Jamaica, he sued
London publisher for Ibeling him
and won his case-imagine a pirate
suing for libel!-and, all in all,
things got pretty dull for him.
There was nothing left but to drink
himself to death, which he pro-
ceeded to do with whole-hearted
fervor.
Published by Covici-F riede, this
book sells for SO.

voice came to them.

Rays voice.
Monnie was out upon that muddy
road before she knew what she was
doing, actually Her frantic feet
were carrying her toward the red
light. She could hear the pounding
heels of her escort beside her.
She flung herself against the door
Of the little red sedan. Kay Kay!
It's Monnie! I'm here, dear, Don't
be afraid"
Kay, with some kind of black
silk scarf wound around her bright
locks, Kay with face stained with
tears. A sullen, young-old man at
the wheel.
Jaw, let her go. She's a gutter,
that's what she is. She wanted to
come with me. It's racket, that's
what"
Monnie caught the sickening
fumes of bad gin as she helped the
sobbing girl out.
Back here, dear. Charles car.
You're all right. Don't cry any
more"
"He-he said I'd better wrap up
in that thing so folks wouldn't know
me" Kay was saying, between gasps.
He put on a dirty old coat so that
he would look different. He began
to drink from a flask he had. II
got scared.
HE was only going to drive me to
Waynesboro and then put me on
the train there. He said he'd give
me the fare to New York What's
that?" she interrupted herself, put
ting her hands to her ears.
Il think" said Monnie soberly
and with satisfaction, that Charles
Eustace is giving that man a beat

Iva when Kay was in bed and

'Monnie, I feel-just terrible
about all this. You're sure mother
needn't know? Honesty didn't
mean to do anything wrong, only
sometimes things just get so ter
rible. School-and being so poor
and everything"
Il know" Monnie's voice was
very quiet. Don't you suppose l

too"
Kay turned on the bedside light.
II can't stand flunking again. I
can't stand going back with a
younger class. What shall I do? 1t
seems to me there's nothing ahead
for any Of us. Rochester said
maybe I could do something on the
stage, think I might"
Her voice, usually so sure and
arrogant, faltered. She looked very
young, very small and frightened.
Monnie went over and took her
hand. Look, Kay, we have job
to do, both of us. We can't be quit
tiers. We're O'Dares. That used to
mean something in these parts.
We've got mother to think of.
We've got our whole lives ahead of
us.

going to look back on all this trou-

you weren't more patient. Because
life is going to be wonderful for
you, Kay. Wait and see."

eyes were wide and brilliant.
I'm going to try to help all I
can" Monnie promised. Long after
the younger sister fell asleep, she
lay, stark awake, worrying, plan

would have to find way out for
Kay.
