gestion that in extending the N. R. A,
Congress incorporate restrictions upon
the use of price-control devices were
made yesterday by the American
Liberty League.

combinations within industries, cause
the most vicious imitation because
Government-f1xed prices are bound to
be high enough to sustain the in
efficient, while giving excessive re-
wards to the efficient"
Honest competition, the league said,
cannot exist under regime of fixed
prices.
The league said price controls under
codes have aggravated and prolonged
the depression" and that IAN early
decision on the constitutionality of the
national industrial recovery act is
highly desirable. The apparent dis
position of the administration to avoid
a final ruling by the Supreme Court of
the United States during its present
term may serve to deprive citizens of
their constitutional rights"

the wilds He pointed out that many
city residents spend their vacations
elsewhere because they are afraid of
the dangers of canoes and smaller boats.
Proof that the boats will be extremely
popular with tourists is seen in the fact
that Mr. Pete has already received
numerous inquiries from prospective
vacationerS.
If the boats prove to be as popular
as is expected, Mr.. Pete will construct
as many more as is necessary, he said.
A pioneer in the tourist outfitting
business here, MIR. Pete has had con-
siderable experience in that line and it
is his opinion that the boats will at
tract a new class of tourists to this
section.
While it is expected that the tourists
will make the most use of the boats for
extended periods, Mr.. Pete predicted
that the crafts would also prove popular
with local people desiring to spend a
weekend on the lake or with families
out for one-day picnic.
A cleverly constructed miniature
model of the boats is on display in the
window of Mr. Pete's garage and the
public has been invited to inspect it in
detail.

OPERA HOUSE
CLICKS AGAIN
Beat Chisholm Merchants il
Closing Moments of Play
By 35 to 20 Score.
(By ashammy" somrock.)

(By "Shammy" SOmrOck.)
Cutting short threatening Chisholm
rally in the closing moments of the
game and then putting on last minute
drive of their own, enabled the Ely
Opera House basketball team to defeat
the Chisholm Merchants by count OF
35 to 90 at the Memorial gymnasium
here Wednesday. The game was one
of the finest seen on the local court
in several seasons.
The Merchants, SERA champions Of
Chisholm, were here to avenge one
point defeat scored over them by the
Opera House five at the recent district
SERA tourney and they just narrowly
missed turning the trick.
Caging several long shots in the first
period, Chisholm looked like they would
walk away with the game, but the local
team came back to tie the score which
stood at Gall at the close of the
quarter.
A second quarter burst of speed gave
the local team a lead of 10 to Is at
half time. The third frame was fairly
even with Ely holding the edge "a to
II at the close.
The Ely team took a 9 point lead in
the final canto and with minutes OF
play remaining were on top 80 to 81.
Dropping in long shots from all angles,
Chisholm crept up on the locals to
within one point, the score being 30 to
49, In the final two minutes the Opera
House quint scored five points to put
the game on ice.
The Ely team used a revamped line
up due to the illness of Ray Passi, star
guard. The whole team played nice ball
with Beck leading the attack on the
basket. Pergol was the spark plug for
Chisholm, dropping six field goals
through the hoop. The ineups and
summary.
