oh, Those JOb-HOgS

THE government is liberal-minded under the
l. present Administration. Caring very little what
the employees do on their own time or whom they
choose for room mates. The government IS not
the employees pastor any more a considerable
change from the Administrations of the Messrs
Coolidge and Hoover who required that these hands,
including even members of the Cabinet, recite vow
to abstain from alcoholic beverages out OF reverence
for the policy of the Administration This made
Washington city of clove-eaters.
1t is a low price which Mr.. Babcock places upon
that which has been valued above all the jewels OF
India and all the gold in the earth when he cites
nine ladies in the government service who have sur
rendered their virtue in order to retain their gov
eminent wages There have been ladies like that
before and it is not alarming to find that there
are nine known cases among force of 10000 gov
eminent employees.
The regulation seems a good one notwithstand-
ing the dreadful sacrifice of the nine ladies referred
to by Mr.. Babcock. Washington is a. concentration
of the greediest job-hogs in the United States and
plural Job holding in family is still accomplished
under all sorts of ingenious lodges.
Mr.. Babcock's proposition that Uncle Sam is
the sinner in all nine cases seems cruelty unfair to
old Mr.. Whiskers. Not content to have both the
money and the domesticity which is denied to
other government hands who obey the conventions,
the nine ladies want the government chapains to
do their repenting for them on government time at
the taxpayers expense.

 Then. asked two boxing questions, Smitli-who, perhaps, is best known for his analysis of the ring sport said:
 T think this boy, Joe Louis is one of the best boxing prospects since the days of Jack Dempsey He certainly swarmed all over Primo Camera when saw them fight a few weeks ago. Wtt !
 What about Braddock, the new champion? We'll, all can say is that he is nice elean-cut Irish boy. hope he makes a lot ol money this year, because I think the next man to meet him for the championship will cause him a loi of trouble. ,

 Max Baer, the dethroned cham. pion, just wasn't in condition whef he fought Braddock. But. in a fes months, he can be whipped int shape again and will be as danger. ous as ever"
