SUGGESTS STREET REPAIR
TO CREATE JOBS

By = Taxpayer.
With the election not far off, the
voters are casting an eye on city
streets, noting the care or lack OF
care. The condition in which the
street car company left abandoned
tracks shows that the city officials
either are bluffed by the car com
pany, or that the officials are more
than half blind.
We pay the police enough TO be
reporters of chuck holes to the
street department.
With thousands of men on made
work, what excuse is there for the
streets not being kept in first class
condition? Repair Of broken curbS
and sidewalks would employ hun
dreds Of men for months.
The taxpayers viii be saddled
with the cost of fixing the street
car right-of-way, worn out by the
company. To make it sweeter for
the company the city could take up
the rails for the company and haul
them out to the company's yard.

The day was hot and the as
phalt yielded to rubber heels.
When traffic paused at the stop
light perspiration began. A de-
crepit model of the old tin can
driven by a workman had the
place of honor at the head of the
line.
The drivers hair stuck out OF
his old straw hat, which was worse
for wear. Boots in the tires pro-
truded like goose eggs. The hood
ratified, the radiator was leaking
and the top was curled up and
ready to fly away.
Second in line was a shiny new
model driven by a well-dressed
man. Maybe he was a capitalist.
What does a capitalist look like,
anyhow?

old tin can coughed across the in

THERE is
NO JOY
BY ARCHER SHIRLEY

There is no Joy without some secret
sorrow,
No laughter without some deep
hidden tears;
We have brave hopes, but fear soms
dark tomorrow
Whereon we fall before the brutal
years
Great reaching hand Of death. We
have no peace
without another's torment: for
all our love
Another human heart will never
cease
To feel the grip Of iealousy's iron
glove.
But all pain leads to beauty: where
the song
Is tinged with sadness, there the
notes
Are sweeter than the melody Of long
Held chords from some unknow-
ing, thoughtless threats,
Who never know that In each
changing life
No love or peace can come with-
out some strife.

ASSERTS CONSTITUTIONAL
LIBERTY REIGNS NOW

by Perry Rule.
The writer's of the Constitution in
giving the purpose for its drafting,
declared:
1--WE, the people of the United
States, in order to form more per-
feet union, establish justice, insure
domestic tranquility, provide for the
defense, promote the general welfare
and secure the blessings of liberty to
ourselves and our posterity, do Or
dain and establish this Constitution
Of the United States of America"
The Constitution was written
many years ago but not until the
ert of the New Deal has the true
intent of the Constitution been ex-
emplifed. 1t remained for Frank
lin D. Roosevelt to inaugurate a sys-
tenn for the exemplihcation Of the
true intent Of the Constitution, TO
establish justice. promote the gen.
eral welfare and thereby secure the
blessings Of liberty for all.
The old deal ran bias to the con-
stitutional grant and secured for the
predatory and favor seeking inter-
ests a monopoly on the blessings Of
liberty by imposing injustice, instead
Of promoting justice and the general
welfare Of the masses, hin6ering
them from securing justice and the
blessings of constitutional liberties.
Those who have abrogated the
true intent of the Constitution now
cry most loudly for the liberties Of
the old deal that laviShly granted
unjust liberties to the favored few.

MR.. LEMON is SOUR
ABOUT COFFINISM
By William Lemon.

By William Lemon.
Why should We, as hungry, intelli-
gent, American citizens, have any
faith in the promises Of the Cof-
fin controlled Republican party?
During its regime we lost our homes,
our jobs and our pride, inherited
from our forefathers.
Such men as Franklin D. Roose-
welt, Otto Ray, John Kern, Glen
Ralston and Charles Grossart have
given us back our own American
heritage.
To vote anything but the Demo-
cratic ticket would make us appear
as a nation of imbeciles.
Imbecile is defined as without
strength, especially of mind; feeble
minded; idiotic; one of feeble mind.

ARLINGTON CITY
PLAN IS REVIVED
Incorporation of Virginia
County Debated by Civic
Groups.
By stan correspOndent OF The Star.


CLARENDON, Va, July 1.-THE
question of the incorporation of
Arlington County into the City Of
Arlington has been revived in the
Civic Federation as the result of a
recent Supreme Court decision deny
ing all of the rights of city council
to the county board, as provided in
an act OF the General Assembly.
Incorporation, as the solution of
many problems which have arisen as
result Of the rapid growth Of the
county, has been urged by one group
in the federation for a number of
years and as result of the efforts
Of this group, headed by L. c. Nc
Nemar, chairman of the Better Gov
ernment Committee, the General AS
sembly passed an enabling act per-
mitting the county 10 vote on this
question.
This act is still in force and an
election can be called at any time by
the qualified voters OF the county, it
was explained by McNemar, who be-
lieveS that the citizens will never be
given the privileges to which they are
entitled under the present limited
powers of the board
1t was largely through the Civic
Federation that the present county
manager form Of government was put
into effect in the county in 1892 in
the belief that it would meet the
situation. Now, however, there are
some who telieve that the urban
nature of the county demands the
substitution Of complete city form
of government.
The question is set up as one for
the citizens Of the county TO decide.
There is no further legislation re-
Quired in taking the preliminary step,
hence it would not be necessary to
wait until the next session of the
Legislature before reaching a de-
ciSion on the question.
Opponents of the proposed legisla-
ton, both within and without the
Civic Federation, point to the losses
that would be sustained in the con-
struction and maintenance of primary
roads in the county, and others go
further and assert that such a step
would forever eliminate the possibility
Of the county entering the Byrd road
plan and turning its entire road
problems over to the State.

BATTLE IS PRESSED
AGAINST TERM "JAZZ"

Now that the 'crooners" have waged
successful battle to have the word
"crooner" included in Websters new
dictionary-and won, Don Bestor,
orchestra leader. is confident that
with the same sort of concerted action,
he can win his fight against "jazz"
According to standard dictionaries.
the term Jazz" is defined as: "A
Negro term for syncopated music or
ragtime played discordantly on vari-
Gus instruments. Bestor, comment
ing says:
The foregoing definition remains
unchanged in the latest Webster edi-
ton and Is therefore an accepted one.
1t is clearly a misleading term for
modern dance music. most of which
Is not discordant and none of which
is cOlored. With due respect TO the
colored origin of modern music and
the terms for 1t, enough progress has
been made in the composition and
Interpretation of syncopated music
TO warrant the adoption Of a more
accurately descriptive term
Although many Of the band leaders
share my attitude and few of them
ever use the term. We are helpless to
combat its usage unless newspaper
columnists and editors cooperate with
US in outlawing It, 1t is ugly in
sound and. incorrect in implication"

way. any reorganization plan should
include national representation for
the District in Congress and the
is not yet prepared to say how it
could be fitted into his program.
Representation Needed.
Irrespective of how perfect a form
OF municipal government might be
worked out" Yaden declared If it
left the 500 900 residents of the Dis
trict without voice in the legislative
bodies 1t would violate the funda-
mental principle on which all Ameri-
can Government Is based.
L favor the proposed constitutional
amendment to give the District ma
tional representation. and can see at
this time no inconsistency between
this and my plan for reorganization.
However, l cannot say at this time
just how the two plans could be CO.
ordinated. 1t should be done, and
believe 1t will be done"
Yaden emphasized that one OF the
major features Of his program would
free the District from control by the
Federal Budget Bureau. He feels that
restrictions placed on the District
budget by the Budget Bureau has
unduly retarded development and led
TO the creation Of the once huge
surplus of unobligated tax revenues,
with a resulting reduction in the
amount Of the Federal contribution.
