Act on Appointments.
The question of the confirmation
of interim appointments made by
Governor Olson was acted upon by
the Senate, which approved all but
five of AZ appointments submitted by
the governor and referred the cases
of the five who were excepted to
committees. Senator A. o. Sletvold,
Detroit Lakes. took exception to the
appointment of Mrs. Marion LeSueur,
of Minneapolis, Miss Florence Rood,
of st. Paul, and Peter ]. Seeberger,
of st. Cloud, as members of the State
Board Of Education, and their appoint
ments were referred to the committee
on Education, which is headed by
Senator A. L. Almen of Balaton.
Senator A. ]. Rockne, of umbrota,
took exception to the appointment of
David R. Arundel as liquor commits
sioner, and Senator Charles A. Haus-
Ter OF st. Paul, to that of Francis
w. Moudry as member of the State
Pharmacy board.
1t occurs to this writer that the
public often becomes impatient and
critical of legislators because of what
it regards as a waste of time in the
early part of the session. 1t wants
to see the legislators "get down to
work." People often believe the short
daily sessions mean that the legisla-
tors are Sinking. However, much of
the early work in a legislative ses-
sion goes on in committees where the
bills must be considered before they
are reported to the whole member
ship. The drafting of bills is also
a laborious process. This must be
done by members outside of the time
in which the legislature is actually
in session. These tasks are the un-
seen and undramatic part of the leg
islator's work which the public does
not appreciate. Yet all this activity
is highly important.
Club Honors Officials.
A social event which many legisla-
tors enjoyed, and which was attended
by hundreds Of people, took place
Tuesday evening. 1t was a victory
celebration in honor of the elected
state officials of the Farmer-Labor
party, sponsored by the Ramsey
County Women's Farmer-Labor Club
and held at one of St. Paul's popular
amusement places.
Following the dinner the state Of
ficials and women prominent in the
club were introduced. Only Governor
Olson spoke.
The women of Ramsey county have
a very active organization. They have
set an example that might we'll be
followed by clubs and individuals of
any political party in any part of the
state. Most of these women offer
their time and services, during cam
paigns and in between, for the good
of the cause without any thought Of
individual reward. They open their
houses to political meetings where
economic and governmental questions
are discussed in an educational way.
These are not the ballyhoo type of
political meetings, but are given for
the purpose of better understanding
on the part of the electorate of ques-
lions concerning the citizens and tax
payers.

Yet the administration leaders are
far from happy when they face the
fight ahead of them. The new plans
for old age pensions. while far stride
forward, are pitifully far short of
reaching the goal hopefully held out
in the much discussed Townsend plan.
There is criticism from those who de-
plore the absence of minimum re
quirements upon states who will set
up their participating agencies. There
is reluctance on the part of many to
give the President further blanket and
unlimited authority over administra-
tive agencies which are to be perma-
nent not emergency, in their charac-
ter and work. And so it goes.
The same criticism must necessari-
ly be faced by the proposed unemploy-
ment insurance plan. Tories and rep
resentatives of conservative business
groups are openly hostile-it violates
their beliefs which their utterances
as recently as 1892 in House and Sen
ate debates then recorded. And lib
erals and radicals are bitter because
the plans do not go far enough.
Regardless, following brief hearings.
the omnibus bill seems slated for
rapid passage through the House via
the gag rule route. The Senate will
be more deliberate, but even there the
desire to enact the measure in time so
that the state lawmakers can set up
the necessary state Laws will hurry
the usually leisurely Senators.
Later letters will discuss the details
of the plans which have here been
broadly sketched, and will try to sum-
Marie the strategy and the plans of
those who are facing the stupendous
task of seeing this entire picture
clearly, and preserving it against the
attacks which the measure faces from
two sides.

THE NATIONAL
GOVERNMENT
By CONG. JOHN PAUL KvALE

Us'hering in a definitely new era in
our whole concept of government, the
news of the week has of course been
the disqualification of the Administra-
tion's plans for social security, en-
bracing definite proposals for setting
up old age pensions, unemployment
insurance, and other social benefits to
''underprivileged" throughout the ma
ton.
AS though such an alLimportant
subject were not enough to occupy the
time of those in seats of responsibility,
there is offered at about the same
time the plan to expend about four
billions of dollars in an effort to
step up public works and reduce the
unemployment load at the same time
that straight relief on the dole is per-
manently abandoned. Together with
that naturally is associated the prob
lem of meeting the special emergen-
cies in the drouth areas, on which the
Administration has been working day
and might with representatives from
those areas.
Then on top of it all comes the in
creasing activity of the organizations
and individuals interested in monetary
reform. That subject was discussed
in this column last week, chiefly with
recitation of the Goldsborough plan
for central bank and refinancing of
the nations Indebtedness and future
credit needs. Copies of that speech
are now available for those who de-
sire them.

Demonstrating generous spirit of
cooperation and mutual compromise,
these groups met during the past
week in the Senate Agriculture COM
mittee room, under the leadership of
Senator Thomas, and unanimously
passed vigorous resolution declaring
for return to Congress of it's power to
coin money and regulate its value,
through bank along the lines of the
The resolution also called for a cost
of production price for farmer-prO-
duced commodities, plus reasonable
profit, demanded payment of the SOL
diers' adjusted service certificate bal
ances, payments of deposits in closed
banks, and other proposals.
When it is remembered that those
who attended spoke directly for mil
lions of individual citizens, the meet
ing takes on added significance. Fa-
Their Coughlin, speaking for his
League for Social Justice, was one.
Secretary Kennedy of the Farmers
Union, was another. Then there we're
spokesman for the organized depos-
itOrs in closed banks, Senator Owen
speaking for his Sound Money League,
and others for other similar organiza-
lions. And many members of the
Senate and House were in attendance.
Just where the meeting of minds
will be with all the varying view
points to be expressed is uncertain.

Just how the necessary understanding
and cooperation can be reached which
will tie together constructively the in
terrelated problems of unemployment,
public works, and social insurance. is
even more difficult to say. The prob
lem is of staggering magnitude.
The point is that the government is
actually on it's way. And one discern
ing writer makes the important OBJ
servatiOn that once we do start down
this road of social responsibility with
definite administrative setups, there is
to be no turning back, either under
Roosevelt or under some future Pres
ident. The days of rugged individu-
alism and disclaiming of these fed
eral responsibilities are gone, and the
new era is here.
