Shooting Stars.
The Game Goes On.
BY PHILANDER JOHNSON.

The Game Goes On.
At forty, in the base ball game,
A man admits he's not the same.
To something else he has to turn;
Nobody is too old to learn.
A filling station he may plan
And be a wayside friend to man.
One simple truth he must recall:
There's lots in life besides base ball.
Perhaps he'll seek for rural charm
And undertake to run q farm,
Or take a flyer in the mart,
Or be an entertainer smart.
Again he strives to score q hit,
Wild umpires puzzle him q bit.
But, he assures us, after all
There's lots in life besides base ball.

Unemployment Changes.

Senator Copeland's subcommittee in
charge of the Ellenbogen unemployment
bill for the District is to meet this
afternoon to consider amendments to
that measure making it conform with
the National legislation.
There are at least fve changes that
should be considered:
1. The National bill, as it passed the
House, affects employers Of ten or more
persons; as it passed the Senate, en-
ployers Of four or more persons. The
local bill affects employers Of four or
more persons. The local bill should
conform to the National legislation in
this respect, whatever the National
legislation may finally provide.
2. The maximum period Of benefit in
the local measure is twenty-six weeks.
In New York and some other States it
is sixteen weeks. The longer the period
of benefit, the higher the cost, for the
greater must be the unemployment re-
serves. There is no need for the local
legislation to exceed in period Of benefits
the legislation enacted by the States.
For a period, at least while the results
of the law are under study, the benefit
period might well be scaled down and
increased later if necessary.
3. The National legislation initiates
the pay roll tax at one per cent, increas-
ing it annually to three per cent-ninety
per cent of which is allowed as a credit
against local pay roll taxes. The New
York unemployment measure follows
the same plan. The District bill levieS
a three per cent tax at the outset. 1t
is logical to levy the tax gradually, pre-
venting the possible complications re-
sulting from q sudden three per cent
increase in the cost Of production, which
will be passed on to consumers in the
form of higher prices. The local bill
should in this respect conform with pro-
visions of the National legislation.
4. The District bill requires, in ad-
dition to three per cent pay roll tax
levied on employers, a contribution from
the local government amounting to one
per cent of all private pay rolls. That
provision is unusual and should be elm
mated. The prospective drains on local
revenues from other measures are heavy
as it is. One principle of the National
unemployment insurance plan is that
it be largely self-supporting through the
pay roll tax. The local government
should contribute only as an employer
of per diem labor. No further contri-
button should be exacted at least until
the needs for such additional revenue
are made clear and explicit.
S. The Ellenbogen bill originally in
cluded merit clause" which by re-
duction in the pay roll tax rewarded en-
ployers stabilizing their employment. As
passed by the House there is no merit
clause, only a penalty clause, distinctly
illogical, affecting employers unable to
stabilize their employment. A real merit
clause should be included in the local
bill. Some tangible incentive should be
held out to employers who maintain
steady pay rolls or increase their en-
ployment. AS it is, the reward for in
creasing pay rolls is an increase in the
pay roll tax. The National bill, as it
passed the Senate, makes this merit
clause possible.

Residue OF Fortune.
When affluence goes
On splendid parade
And nobody knows
How expenses are made,
Taxpayers admire
Some magnificent scenes
When their real desire
Is just plain pork and beans.
Our gold you may take
And our raiment so fine,
You may bid us forsake
The aroma Of wine,
You may stop the display
That once suited our means,
But leave us, we pray,
Just our plain pork and beans.

THE premature oeaLn OF raul Conen-
Portheim is tragic not only to his many
and devoted personal friends, but to
those who share his belief in the con-
cept of Europe. In itself 1t is small
thing to be at home on the Zattere
and the Kurfurstendamm, in the Rue
de Lappe and in Islington. But it is
upon the spread of an attitude to
Europe like that expressed in different
ways by Normal Angel, Julien Benda
and Paul Cohen -Portheim that the con-
tinuance of civilization depends"
In his own Introductory note to the
book Mr.. Cohen-Portheim wrote:
"As soon as a book of this sort ceases
to be purely descriptive, and becomes
explanatory or critical. It is bound to
encounter opposition. Where the author
states his opinion, the reader may think
him wrong or ill-informed. But while
prepared for this, I hope that there
viii be one thing no reader will deny,
and that Is that the book is written
by one whose sympathy with London
Is very sincere, and who might. in fact,
almost be said to be in love with it,"

"The contract has been
signed and it can not be re-
voked," the official announced.
But more surprising was his claim
that the Observation-Disclosures
treaty of 1906, which Britain claims
Ethiopia violated by granting the
concessions, does not apply to the
present situation.
Great Britain, by It's indicated
~diSpleasure over Italian plans to in
wade Ethiopia, had been regarded
as a powerful friend of this coun-
try. Diplomatic circles saw in the
Ethiopian rejection the alienation
of the one power that might have
averted Italian conquest.
Merely Gesture, Is Belief
But Ethiopian officials privately
expressed the belief that the Brit
ish protest was intended as a ges-
ture to Italy, designed to reduce
tension in Anglo-Italian relations.
Sir Sidney Barton received his in
structionS last night. He planned
to present them to the emperor
today They will point out, it has
been indicated, that Ethiopia has
violated that section of the 1906
treaty providing:
"AS regards demands for agri-
cultural, commercial and industrial
concessions in Ethiopia, the three
powers undertake to instruct their
representatives to act in such a way
that concessions which may be &C
corded in the interest of one of the
three states may not be injurious TO
the interests of the two others"
Imperial Family Nervous
Ethiopia regards the 1906 treaty
inapplicable," the foreign Office Of
cial told the United Press. 1T was
never signed by Emperor Menelik
(who was reigning in 1906). He ap-
proved only that section guarantee
ing Ethiopia's independence. EN-
peror Halle Selassie, you may say,
will reject the British protest"
Meantime, it was reported that
the imperial family was showing
increasing nervousness over the gen.
eral situation. The Emperor is
known to have planned a secret re-
treat in the event he is forced to
flee Adds Ababa because of air
raids or for other reasons.
One Of the chief cause of con-
Germ. it was said, was revelation that
Ethiopia's total ammunition sup
plies are less than one days re-
quirement for expenditure in war.
Military preparations proceeded.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2.TBrighter
skies for the working nan were fore
cast today in a flood of oratory that
gripped the nation on the forty
eighth anniversary of Labor Day.
Political and labor leaders, gen.
orally, called upon workers to con-
tinue striving for improved condi-
lions.
Secretary of Labor Frances Per-
kins will make a nationwide radio
address at $50 tonight, while Will
liam Green, president of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor, is sched-
uled to speak at Canton, o.
j. Warren Madden, the former
college law professor, who recently
became chairman of the new ma
tional Labor Relations Board, de-
Tended the constitutionality of the
Wagner Labor Disputes Act and
pledged fair play to employees and
employers in its administration.
RapS Liberty League
John L. Lewis, president Of the
United Mine Workers, told a cheer
ing crowd Of 5000 at Fairmont, w
Va, that the last Congress was the
most liberal and progressive this
country has ever had" while he up
braided the American Liberty
League.
Mr.. Lewis accused the Liberty
League of employing high Salaried"
attorneys to write opinions on New
Deal legislation.
At the same time he asserted the
nation is recovering not only from
an economic depression but from a
'stupendous financial and industrial
breakdown" He praised such
measures as the social security act,
the tax-the-rich bill, the banking
bill and the Guffey coal bill"
In Milwaukee, Rep. Thomas r.
Amlie prog, Wis.,, charged that
the New Deal is IAN attempt to
stabilize permanent poverty in a
scarcity economy" and said that
neither Democratic nor Republican
parties can meet the challenge of
the present crisis"
Scores Wagner Act
He asked organized labor to par
ticipate in a great mass movement
based on the principle of produc-
ton for use; a movement that rec
ognizes that the only alternative to
our present outworn and dying prof
it system is a new order of
planned production for use"
In his first speech since assum-
ing Office, Mr.. Madden said, "the
Wagner Act is by no means dL
rected at all the conditions which
cause labor trouble. 1t is aimed
merely at those practices which in
volve a violation of the rights CT
self-organization and collective
bargaining"
This law contemplates a proc
ess of bargaining between parties
of more nearly equal strength
which should, in the generality of
cases, result in a moderate, fair
decision to the parties and bene-
fetal to the public"
