Private Industry the Real Key.
(Kansas City Times.)

In his remarks to the State and National Ad- ministrators of the 4-billion dollar works fund the President has stated the conditions on which the spending of this huge sum of money could be justi- fled Those conditions include the creation of the
 largest possible number of jobs from the fund avail able the absence of political other discrimination in selection of workers and in the outlays and above all such a revival of private industry will lead to discontinuance of public spending of this char acter.
 It is too much to expect that politics will be kept out of this capacity The temptation the other way especially with a campaign year approaching will be compellngly strong. Yet, with the most vigilant administration, the political factor can be minimzed and the attitude of the President can have much to do with the result Further, in order to provide jobs for the 3l2 million employables now on the relief rolls it will be necessary to resort to large numbers of projects on which labor will be the chief item of cost. The danger to be avoided in that particular will be projects of the question able merit that constituted much of the activity under the CWA
 The final and decisive test will with the possible expansion of industry to absorb the work CTS as their relief employment is terminated, or before that time. The President speaks hopefully of the prospect of "a very definite and distinct pickup all over the United States. The country will trust that there is a sound basis for the optimistic view. It would like to trust, too that every pos sibe encouragement to the necessary industrial re- vival will be given by the Administration. Ger tanly the mere spending of such an amount las billion dollars would not do the work The spending at its best be regarded only as a temporary to employment. If it is not followed or accompanied by the further recovery of industry it's value will be lost

SPEEDING UP COURT DECISIONS.

The old Constitution winch has weathered the political for the past 148 years promises to have its day in the during the months tol come before the next Presidential election it has not had for many year Indications are pretty definite that the Republicans going to wave the famous old instrument before the electorate with wild abandon on the charge that it is being violated to no end by the New Deal To hear the Grass Rooters shout one would be led to believe the Constitution is nothing but child of the Republican Party rather than document for the whole people drafted before the c. o. P was ever thought of.
 But it is the noise of the changers and anti Constitution changers that centers the picture at the present moment due of course, to the recent Supreme Court decision on the NRA. Those op- posing the Administration point with pride to the decision and view with the usual alarm all acts of the New Deal result thereof, while talk of the extreme leftists sounds like tossing the whole thing out the window and drawing up some thing from their own inventive minds. Both extremes are as far from the course President Roosevelt is following as the north pole is from the south and most Of the people of the nation are well aware of 1t.
 There isn't any occasion to junk the old document nor is there anything particularly alarming about considering certain revisions, in fact putting them into effect if they appear practical. Amend nents have been made in the past which have proven beneficial and there logical reason why others may not be instituted. The lame duck amend sonent which eliminates that session of Congress in which defeated Senators Representatives were allowed to serve before their successors took office and starts the Presidential term January 20 cer- tanly act Of merit and there might well be others. Out Of the turmoil of political palaver comes one suggestion which appears to be worthy Of consideration and that is amendment to speed Supreme Court decisions acts of Congress. Sen ator Norris the Nebraska Republican Independent is given credit for the idea. His proposal would prohibit any Congressional act from being declared unconstitutional if action not started within six months after the law became effective.
 The waste of time, energy and money in having law declared void year or two after it has become effective is bound to have unfavorable effect and it seems only logical that if the Con- gress cannot pass statutes which keep within the Constitution the people entitled to know it within reasonable time Speeding up court de- cision on Congressional acts would appear to be nothing more than good sense.

ing. That was when the R-K-O, the studio that discovered her for LaCava's Age of Consent" released her after giving her a few minor roles in westerns"
 T knew then, although it hurt, that it was the best thing that could happen to me" she declares. And she made up her mind then that if picture roles did not come, she would not let it break her heart.
 But pictures did not forget her. She gave an unusual performance in The White Parade" played op- posite George O'Brien in When a Mans a Man" and recently did the heroine with Will Rogers in Tn Old Kentucky Between pie lures she made her stage debut in "Merrily We Roll Along" and before the five-week run was over she was sufficiently nonehalant about it to be able to spot people she knew in the audience!
 Old Friends Still Count One of the unusual things about the girl is the way she clings to old friends. She can tell you where each of the girls that used to pound typewriters with her is now, which have married, which have childern, which are still working and where. She shares an apartment with Joan St. Oegger, an intelligent young woman who is hair-d dresser on the Warner lot, and who shares Dor othy's interest in books and the beach.
 She knows few movie people among the players. that is-and she does not "go around much. J Candidly, she thinks many of the players are interesting individually

Anniversary Finds Former Typist Still Hord Working,
 Also An Unspoiled Actress
By RoBBIN COONs

HOLLYWOOD, Cal, July 9.-It was on June day like those Hol- lywood visitors write home about that Gregory LaCava, looking for a certain type of girl to play lead ing role in a new picture, sighted a slight brown-haired miss walk ing over to lunch at the studio restaurant.
 Three years ago this month Dor otay Wilson. just little studio stenographer from Minneapolis, and far from screen-struck, took that Iunchward walk which was to land her in pictures.
 To see her three years later, after some success has come her way, is to be impressed anew with the level head that sits on the Wilson shoulders. She seems less screen struck today than she did then when she was a timid, wholesome youngster who suddenly found her self with a wholly unexpected screen career before her She is equally wholesome, but more poised and self assured, naturally

ASKOV
New Baga Crop Starts.

The first carload of rutabagas was
shipped from Askov yesterday by A.
Henriksen. The demand for early
roots seems to he very light, possibly
on account of most people having a
good home garden this year. This
first car consisted of II tons for
which Mr.. Henriksen paid the pro-
ducers SO per ton. 1t is really in
teresting to note how expensive these
roots become by the time they reach
the consumer. The first increase in
cost is sacks which cost 50 per ton;
then they must be shipped in re-
frigerator car on which there is a
charge of $50 for ice or $3.50 per ton;
the car went to one of the southern
states to which point the freight was
$40 per ton. Therefore, eliminating
all profit of the local buyer, the brok-
er, wholesaler, and retailer, the net
cost of the roots will be 1856 per
ton at the point of consumption.
