 The incident illustrated what has happened in many other cases.
 During the same week a labor union presented a petition to la Dor board. The board held it had no authority, and referred the re- quest to one of the code authori- ties as the proper government agen- cy. Yet it 50 happened that the MIRA had ruled long since that this code authority had no juris- diction in the premises. Of course there are some sub jects. such as currency readjust- ment, on which the administration has said frankly it could lay down no fixed policy.
 There are many others, however, about which high officials believe something to clear up popular con- fusion can be done with perfect safety.

 Daffy Pitching for Dizzy
 Among other things, Dizzy's de- parture left the local team without a pitcher, so Paul took his first turn on the mound. This was in terrupted however, by his fathers decision to continue wandering.
 The House of Dean passed through another of those weird in cidents which mark its history on this particular journey. Paul and Elmer, the elder brother, and their father picked up another cotton picker who owned a small car, and it was customary for Elmer to ride with this man in his car and Paul to stay with his father in another old car.
 One day both cars came to a railroad crossing. Paul and his father drove across before a long freight train rumbled down the tracks. But Elmer had to wait un- til it passed. Pa Dean drove right on, and Elmer never did catch up.

 I'll Show Him the Tricks

Rickey, who is interested in the wild theories of his ball players but likes to run his own business, ex- plained to Dizzy that he wanted Eddie Dyer, former Cardinals pitcher, to work with Daffy, and teach him how to throw a curve ball. But Dizzy wasn't satisfied. Bring him over here. I'll show him how to throw them curves. he suggested.

SPANKING IN ORDER?
 It remains to be seen whether pr. Tugwell, on his return to Washington, will be in for a spank ing.
 One indication that he may be absolved of ultimate responsibility lies in the fact that his speech was given out by the government in Washington, in advance of de- livery, and so presumably came as no surprise.
 The point is that somehow, for some reason or lack of it. the

 On the same day that MT. Roosevelt addressed the bankers in Washington, in a manner obviously designed to quiet some of their apprehensions and instill confi- dence, Dr. Rexford Tugwell deliv- cred an address in Rome, Italy.
 The chief brain -truster spoke be- fore the International Institute of Agriculture, but he talked of many things never heard of on the farm.
 In an address sprinkled with such eradite expressions as "optimum quantity" and 'cullis inheritance, :" the doctor lambasted the old or der, referred to the blind reckless ness" of those who say recovery should come before reform, and told the world there was yet more to be invented and tried"

PORTLAND, Me, Oct. 23.-Bur- kett and son, the Maine legisla- ture doubles combination. moved together into the legislative finals of the 1894 campaign and copped a couple of seats in the State Sen ate.
 The 70-year -old father, Fred E. Burkett, of Union, and the 4-year- old son, Franz U. Burkett of Port land, having parallel political am bitions, were elected in their sep arate districts to the House of Representative in 1929.
 In 1881 Burkett the elder and Burkett the younger, both Republi- cans, again were victorious for the same offices. but Franz stepped up to the speakership of the House, while the father remained floor member.
 The doubles combine then ap- peared doomed as young Burkett was boomed for the Republican nomination for governor in the 193 race. He decided differently, and ran for state senator. Likewise did the elder Burkett, meeting the

 They have clashed over legisla- tive matters. Back in their first term the elder emerged the victor by a single vote after a verbal tilting over an amendment to bill to annex the Village of Marlbor- ough by the town of Lamoine But harmony generally prevails.
 Franz Burkett, an attorney, a University of Maine graduate and once active in athletics, served in the air corps during the World War. Later he became assistant prosecutor of Cumberland county.
 The elder Burkett operates a hardware store in Union and is principal owner of the Union tele- phone and water companies. Both have been school teachers.

REALLOCATION OF

 IN NOME ACCEPTED

Plans for the reallocation of building lots and streets in Nome have been accepted by practically all property owners, according to word received by Gov. John w. Troy from Grant R. Jackson, chairman of the citizens commit tee in charge of rehabilitation work in the fire gutted city.
 Preliminary graveling has reach ed the halfway mark and it is possible for the citizens to visual } ize the benefits that will be de- rived by everyone from the reallo- cation, MT. Jackson stated. Several business men have already begun to reconstruct permanent places of business on the new sites allotted them.
 Work is available for all able bodied men and all carpenters available are kept busy, MT. Jack son wired. Wherever it is possible, the committee is refraining from employing men who can obtain p ivate employment, he explained.
 While the housing problem can not be definitely ascertained until the last steamer leaves, the emerg- eney bunkhouse is now, accommo- dating approximately 60 men which is the extent of it's present capac- ity, and as nearly as can now be determined, six families are still in need of suitable winter quarters in addition to those being cared for by the Red Cross, MT. Jackson stated. These families could pay a modern rental, he said.

 The larger groups of women. con- ing under the codes include those in textile mills, hotels and restau- rants, s.sd clothing shops and stores.
 For these women the greatest gains probably have been in the reduced working hours, says the bureau. The majority of codes have adopted the 4O-hour week, whereas formerly the most com mon hours ranged from AS to 50.
 Wages Raised
 Minimum wages range from SIP to-, $l4 a week. Before the codes were adopted average wages paid women in many industries ran be- low the present minimums. And since they were average" it meant half the working women were get ting less.
 But minimum wage rates have not been complete gain, the bu- reau finds. Many codes vary the minimum with the size of the town, or set a lower one for the southern states.
 Women in the clothing industry have gained some of the greatest benefits under the national recov- cry program.
 The industry was formerly hon eycombed with sweatshop practic- es," says the bureau, and large numbers of women were paid less than $5 a week.
 Little Improvement
 In certain industries, hotels and restaurants as an example, the women can expect little improve ment in the working conditions, says the bureau
 The laundry code will not raise the distressingly low wages women received in the past" it says.

MOURNS
OVER PASSING
Of MAYHEM

NEW YORK, May 5.-Stage
and musical comedy stars Of past
years gathered yesterday to at
tend the final rites for Miss
Stella Mayhem, vaudeville head
liner and star Of many Broadway
productions.
The Rev. Joseph F. McKenna,
priest Of st. Malachy's Roman
Catholic Church, the actors
church, said prayers. The service
was to have been conducted by
the Rev. DR.. Nathan A. Seagle,
rector Of st. Stephens Protestant
Episcopal Church.
However, when 1t was discov.
cred by officials Of the Ma.
tional Variety Artists Association,
who made the arrangements for
the funeral, that Miss Mayhem
had been baptized and had re-
ceived the last rites as a member
Of the Catholic faith the day
before her death, the change was
instituted.
Henry Chesterfield, executive
secretary of the association, who
delivered the eulogy, declared:
"There is something pathetic
about this service when one
looks back over the career Of
this artist and remembers the
thousands and thousands who
acclaimed her talents"
eve are obliged to recall the
words that Washington Irving
put into the mouth Of Rip Van
Wrinkle when he said, how soon
we are forgotten once we are
gOne.'"
He praised her as a wonderful
woman and a real trouper, who
always remembered, in the face Of
every adversely, "the tradition of
the stage, that the play must go
on"
Mrs. Pauline Hatchett, an &C.
tress and a lifelong friend, sang
one Of Miss Mayhew's favorite
songs, Rose in the Bud" Mrs.
Hatchett shared with the National
Variety Artists Association in pay
ing the expenses Of the funeral.
Another of Miss Mayhew's favorite
songs, "Roses Of Picardy," was
played by the organist, John
Harms.
