Iation by But 2.5 Per
Cent of Licensees.
NINE REVOCATIONS
FOR SUNDAY SALES

!, has revoked Is licenses for violation of
liquor regulations and has found 81

prosecuting them in court. with the
result that fines amounting to S4,700

In all, 78 license holders have been
brought before the board on charges
of violations. In addition to the A
in which permits were revoked or fines
imposed, 81 cases we're dismissed for
lack of evidence and 13 others are
waiting decision by the board.
1890 Licenses.
On October Is there were 1920
licenses of all classes outstanding, not
counting those for solicitors or drug
gists selling bottled spirits on pre-

board found the license holders guilty
of violations constituted about 25 per
cent of the total.
District liquor taxes collected to

and the license fees S548,l7337. The
liquor revenues 60 into the funds for

The most general cause of the revo-
cation of licenses was the charge Of
selling on Sunday, of the l3
being for this reason. In the case
of the 81 license holders fined in court
for rule infractions. selling to persons
apparently intoxicated was first in
rank.
There were niue such cases. -Four
were fined for tax evasion, four were
wholesalers and guilty of selling to un-
licensed dealers, and four we're found
guilty of selling after hours.

JOb[ESS FEWER
UNDER ERDEM0CRATS
Figures Still Differ, but All
Agree Improvement Is
Substantial.
BY the Associated Press,


Just as when Franklin D. Roose-
velt took office a year ago, figures on
unemployment and business improve
ment are still subject of contro-
versy, but. nevertheless. all agree that
! there has been a substantial move
ment in the right direction.
The American Federation of Labor,
for instance, estimates that 1000 900
men have been reabsorbed by indus
try, while the National Recovery Ad-
ministration sets the figure at close
to 100000
The federation's latest estimate was
that II $50 900 were out of work. COM
pared with 1859 900 year ago. the
former figure not including 1900 600
who have emergency employment.
c. w. A. Rolls Cut.
The Civil Works Administration
had 100000 workers on its rolls
at their peak and this has now been
reduced to 2383.000. A total of 282.- =
600 are at work in the conservation
camps.
Reports Of the Federal Reserve
Board on business activity and pay
rolls are generally accepted as accu-
rate. but run from a month to two
months behind time. The StatiSticianS
of the board take the averages Of
1923 to 1925, and on that basis make
the following computation:
Industrial production in March.
1888, was estimated at SO per cent Of
rod
with rs per cent for December, 1888,
and January. 1884; pay rolls rose from
36.9 per cent to 53l; factory employ
ment from SGT to II, and depart
ment store sales from 81 to 68.
Half Billion in Relief.
On the rolls of the Federal Emer-
gency Relief Administration are H.
600, 900 individuals and expenditures
in the last year have totalled more
than $5OO00O,OO0 in direct relief
under Roosevelt, as compared with
$500, 600, 900 in loans to States and
municipalities for that purpose under
President Hoover.
In providing jobs through the Civil
Works Administration. the Roosevelt
dllOll Aldo ChPNAIdSA
100000 The Public Works Admin
istration, the fundamental purpose of
which is to make work for the job
less, has disbursed more than $780,
100000 and expects its outlayS to in
crease employment rapidly during the
Spring months.
On the civilian army Of young men
at work building fire breaks, planting
trees and otherwise protecting the
Nations forrest resources. the Gov
ernment has spent S207, 100000.
Officials are now at work comput-
ing national income for 1888. The
last figures. those of 1882, set the
total at s48e52 900 900, as compared
with $63.289 600. 900 in 1881. Per
capita wealth in 1882 was 81 1881, and

diate cause Of this logical and deep
seated interest was . crisis-an imme-
date crisis which broke over our
heads q year ago. It would have
been possible perhaps for all OF us to
have sought only a temporary cure
for the immediate illness of the
Nation. We can be thankful that
we have studied and are engaged in
the process Of eradicating the deeper
causes Of that illness and Of many
other illnesses Of the body polite
Cites Need for Assistance.
In so doing, we need very definitely
practical contacts between the COL
legiate and educational world and the
operations of Government. The de-
velopment of our economic life re-
quires the intelligent understanding
Of the hundreds of complicated ele-
ments in our society. Government
needs very definitely not only the
sociological and economic points Of
view but also the practical assist
ance of men and women who repre-
sent the academic, the business and
the professional elements in the COM
munity.
We need a trained personnel in
Government. We need disinterested.
as well as broad-gauged public off,
cials. This part of our problem we
have not yet solved, but 1t can be
solved and it can be accomplished
without the creation of a national
bureaucracy which would dominate
the national life Of our governmental
system.
That is why I am especially happy
in the announcement of the establish
ment of this school of public affairs.
I can assure you Of the hearty CO.
operation Of the administration. In
the conduct OF this school the more
widely you can draw on every part
of the Nation for the membership
of its student body. the greater will
be its influence in the dissemination
Of knowledge Of Government through
out the country.
Among our universities, you are
young; you have a great future-a
great opportunity for initiative, for
constructive thinking, for practical
idealism and for national service.

j. s. FASCIST HEAD
HITS NEW DEAL"
Lawrence Dennis, Former
U. S. Diplomat, Says He
IS" movement"
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, March 3.-Lawrence
Dennis a man of 40, with a prominent
jaw and cascading speech, is, accord
ing to his own lights, the Fascist
movement in America.
A news release announcing a de-
bate tomorrow between Dennis and
Clarence A. Hathaway, editor of the
Daily Worker, on Communism VS..
Fascism," called Dennis the "avowed
leader" of the Fascist movement in
America.
Dennis heard about this as he de-
pressed the luxurious springs of a
Harvard Club divap and let it be
known that the announcement was
masterpiece Of understatement.
I'm the movement" he said.
Consequently, he was able to speak
with authority on the aims of the
American Fascist party, which is
chiefly for an authoritarian and utili-
tartan state.
Dennis doesn't raise his right hand
in salute, or wear colored shirt, or
make any of the gestures commonly
associated with European Fascists.
He believes Roosevelt will go Fas-
cist as soon as he realizes he is not
meeting emergencies" and that the
new deal lis" Fascist, so far as it
goes.
"A planless revolution" he says of
the new deal
Under his Fascist ideals, the United
States would wipe out all the State
lines, throw the Constitution on the
scrap heap and set up a co-ordinated
state.
He claims the Fascist state can be
anything from socialism down, or ur
We aren't" he said, concerned
with the moral issues. The idea OF
Fascism is to make the show run. In
other words, any problem is small if
you set up the right machinery to
meet it."
He believes the new deal creates
several other problems every time it
solves one, and that it lacks cohesive
theory

PRESIDENT GAINS
|NHEArTH| IN YEAR
Physician Attributes Condi-
ton to His Cheerful
Outlook.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Because Franklin D. Roosevelt can
keep smiling he has come through his
first year healthier than when he first
became President, the White House
physician says.
DR.. r. T. McIntire, pronouncing Mr..
Roosevelt in fine shape" said today:
LAS a matter of fact, it has been a
healthy year for the whole White
House family. Even the Roosevelt
grandchildren have had scarcely any
ailments"
There is no question in my mind
that President Roosevelt is better to-
day, in a general physical way, than
he was when first saw him in March
of last year" DR.. McIntire added.
He has gone through the year in
fine shape The reason for it, I think,
and the best thing about it, is his
general attitude on life-a cheerful,
optimistic outlook. never expecting
trouble.
Swims Regularly.
''He has taken his exercise Of SWIM
ming faithfully through the year.
Without the swimming pool that was
installed in the White House, he
couldn't have had this exercise-his
time is SO rushed.
THE trip on the Amberjack "a
schooner) was great-the best pos
sible kind Of thing for his health.
The little Summer trips on the
Sequoia were good thing. too, most
ly because they gave a little respite
from the constant pressure of people.
and chance to get out of the heat of
the town.
Colds Trivial.
"The few little colds the President
has suffered have amounted to moth
ing at all. They were SO trivial that
if they had happened to anybody else,
that person probably would have gone
to work as usual-but we can't allow
any chances to be taken with the
President. And We find him very CO.
operative"
Keeping watchful eye over the
President and his family is only extra
duty" for DR.. McIntire. In the two
previous administrations. physician
gave full time to the job.
With a Navy Medical Corps rank as
lieutenant commander. his regular
duty is as chief of the Eye, Ear. Nose
and Throat Service of the Naval Hos
pltal. AS an aside, he teaches those
subjects to postgraduate students at
the Navy Medical School.
But he still finds time to visit the
White House daily. and is the one
authority on the health of the Pres
ident.

R00SEvELTS KEEP
OWN INDIVIDUALITY
Year in White House Has Failed
to Erase Identity of
Family. !
By the Associated Press,

0y tne Associated Press,
Twelve months Of living behind the
stately columns Of the White House
and aSsociating with the title of the
President Of the United States have
not erased the identity and individ-
uality Of Franklin D. Roosevelt and
family.
For the members of the family, the
II months have been a year and not
just the first quarter of Mr.. Roose-
Felt's term of office.
The proud old place, with its ever
present psychology of greatness, has
caused no deviation in Rooseveltian
daily habits. They have kept the
same spontaneous way of doing things
There has long been a saying in
Washington that the White House
subtly transforms all who go to live
within its walls Even the White House
staff implicitly believed it. Presidents
arrived informal and joking, became
burdened with the affairs of state.
Presidents wives came in calling their
husbands by their first names, deter
mined that the place should make NO
difference in their habitats, and before
they realized it were saying 1.-The
President"
Thus far, this has not been true of
the Roosevelts. Instead of falling into
the White House pattern, the entire
family set about making White House
attaches accustomed to their way OF
doing things.
Franklin D. Roosevelt kept right on
cracking jokes to his Negro valet, Nc
Duf1e, as well as to dignitaries who
came to counsel with him on public
affairs.
He kept right on inviting the news
paper men and women in to Sunday
night suppers, where he led the con-
versation of in merry manner, and
then listened to his guests hotly debate
every subject under the sun.
