Now the state liquor board is being
enjoined from functioning. Several
of the provisions in the bill are being
attacked as unconstitutional My,
My, what a waste of time. Are there
still people in this state who fail to
realize that under the so-called new
deal that there is no such thing as
constitutional rights?

Professor Blacks attitude on the
school problem is the proper one TO
take. we think. He has investigated
the possibilities Of securing the ad-
vantages of the CWA setup, has Sc
cured all possible state assistance,
made possible arrangement for a full
expression by the people and now sub
mits the deal to the patrons OF the
district. AS he has repeatedly stated,
he felt it a part of his duty to the
district to present the possibilities,
arrange for the fullest possible url-
derstanding of the situation. If the
patrons wish to accept the chance to
secure adequate school facilities at a
cost of twenty-five to thirty cents on
the dollar, well and good. If they do
not choose to take advantage of the
situation, then his duty in securing
the information will have been COM
pleted anyway. The proposition is
now squarely UP to the patrons OF
the district and it is hoped that there
will be large vote next Thursday on
the question so that complete record
of the patrons wishes may be OBJ
tanned. Every voter should make sure
that he has authentic information re-
garding the sisuation. Then by all
means make it a point to vote on the
question.

they occur. The reason is that the
average person in those communities
will know all about that kind of
crookedness, whereas gigantic con-
spiracy of the type alleged in the air
mail contracts or those involving the
motor trucks seems rather outside of
the picture because they have no To-
cal connections. In other words, we
don't know the people concerned.
But, the President has moved with
considerable speed on the charges in
each instance. He ordered Postmaster
General Farley to cancel the airmail
contracts, not one but all of them,
and turned the job of carrying the air
mail over to the army. He ordered
Attorney General Cummings to go
after the alleged crookedness in the
motor truck case, with the resulting
indictments. Ali of which seems to
give the present administration the
advantage in the political battles that
may be expected in the campaign, yet
the opinions I hear around Washing
ton do not support that view. The
observers and analysts insist that
neither political party can make much
noise about fraud without stirring up
a fresh mess for itself.

Mail Subsidies

There is, and always has been, a
sharp difference of views about
granting subsidies for carrying the
air mail and the ocean mail. Aside
from the fraud charges it appears
there is natural basis upon which
opinion may be divided. Roughly
those who favor the subsidies do SO
because it is the one way which our
government may encourage by direct
aid the expansion Of an industry.
Those who favor subsidies point out,
for example that the millennium has
not been reached and that war is not
banished from the earth. Why, then,
they ask, should not the air craft in
dustry and the shipping industry be
encouraged to go ahead, expand, de-
velop, experiment, produce bigger and
better ships and planes? If there be
war those ships and those planes are

It was believed the committee would
consider two definite proposals for
remedial measures:
The denaturing Of large quantities Of
wheat so as to increase its use as ami
NAL feed.
The decreasing of the amount Of
flour being extracted from wheat by
millers
