CONFERENCE GETS
PICTURE OF long
RANGE PWAPLANS
$50 From Various Parts Of
State Study Proposals at
Conference Here
FEDERAL AIMS EXPLAINED
State Planners Cooperating
With Regional and Ma
tionaI Agencies
Federal AIMS EXPLAINED

Out Of an open forum on the nat
ural and physical resources Of North
Dakota here Thursday came the first
picture Of the long range program
outlined for the state by the state
planning board In cooperation with
regional and national agencies.
More than 80 citizens from various
sections Of the state met to discuss
and to lay plans for coordination Of
useful, desirable and feasible public
works within the state under leader
ship Of Marshall M. Dana Of Port
land, Ore, director Of the northwest
regional planning board; j. A. Camp
bell, consultant Of the Montana plan
ming board, and Robert Byrne. chair
man Of the North Dakota planning
board.
Straight from q conference with
President Roosevelt came Dana to
assure the assemblage the federal gov
eminent would extend all aid and CO.
operation within its power to further
the development and regeneration Of
North Dakotas natural and physical
resources.
Regimentation Not Intent
Dana declared it was not the in
tention Of the federal government to
regiment natural or human resources,
that in the REIMBURSEMENT Of distress
ed citizens to new environments no
person would be coerced: that each
and every citizen affected must volun-
tarily accept what may be suggested.
He asserted the whole program must
spring from the people, that the gov
ernment's interest would be that Of
solely aiding and abetting any de-
velopments coming from the will Of
the people"
Paramount at this time in inte-
grating q state program with ma
tioral program IS an inventory of pub
lie works needed within the state pub
lie works that would be useful and as
permanent as possible, Dana declared.

UNENPL0YAbLES TO
REMAIN CHARGES OF
U. S. TEMPORARILY
Officials Now Say 10000
Families Wholly Depend
ant on Dole Monies

Washington, Jan. 3l.-The federal
government, an authoritative source
disclosed Thursday, has called tenn
porary halt In its drive to return UNI
employables now remaining on its re-
lief rolls back to the care Of states
and localities.
Although FERA officials said the
goal Of their campaign is In sight, it
was indicated officially that the aged.
crippled and other unemployables still
left on the rolls would be allowed to
remain there until after President
Roosevelt's social security program is
enacted.
Last month, Harry L. Hopkins,
emergency relief administrator. said
he would seek to remove all 1.500. 900
"unemployable'' families from the
federal rolls to state and local care.
The first deadline mentioned was
Feb. 1-Friday-but later 1t was In
dicated the transfer would be more
gradual process.
The campaign thus has been pro-
crossing several weeks. Now, Off
cials said. only 10000 families in this
classification are wholly dependent
on the federal dole. Statistics on
how many are partly dependent were
not announced.
FERA officials said that after the
presidents security plan Is passed
the old age pensions and aid to de-
pendent children provided in it will
care for the majority Of unemploy-
ables.
They said also that the $3.50. 000. 900
for relief in the $3.50 000. 900 work
and relief bill now before congress
will help provide for unemployables
until the states. aided by the social
security program. can assume the
burden. Another function Of this
$3.50. 900 900 is to help provide for able
bodied jobless while the government
Is swinging through its transition
from dole to work relief.

If THE STATES ARE IMPOTENT-

MUCH muddy thinking about the Constitution
and states rights will be clarified by reading
the decision of Federal Judge Elwood Hamilton of
Kentucky upholding the Guffey Coal Control Act
The people of the states he said gave to the Con-
gress the right to promote the general welfare in
cases where the states could not do this acting alone
The facts show that the states alone could not re-
habilitate the bituminous coal industry Inasnuch
as coal is an interstate industry Congress can legis-
late concerning it from the beginning of its move
ment until its ultimate delivery to a consumer or
producer This means from the time the miner be-
gins 10 dig.
THE Congress-" he said, Should first determine
If the act proposed is in the interest of the general
welfare; second, the states acting independently
accomplish the result; third if not should the CEN
trail government take action and fourth search the
Constitution for authority to carry into statutory
form the demands of the people for governmental
action If state action is impotent Federal action
is imperative if public necessities demand. d"
1t IS he said "constitutional!y and economically
absurd" to expect the states to control products
nationally distributed.
To deny power in such field to the national
government is tantamount to saying there shall be
no legislation. When the states fail or are
unable to perform public duty the doctrine of
states rights should not be barrier to the Federal
government rendering essential service to the hui
man race"
Here is an opinion that goes considerably beyond
egalistc interpretations of the Constitution
1t goes beyond the Schechter decision. But it is
realistic in facing the facts of great interstate
industries that sprawl across state lines defying
states to regulate them in the interests of the peo-
pie. Legasts will quarrel with it, so will industries
that want neither state Federal interference"
in their business.
A great majority of Americans will applaud it as
a sound, sensible and human restatement of condi-
tons as they are.

SATURDAY. NOVEMBER ls !
BOTH PROFIT, NEITHER LOSES

THE United States and Canada have at last
signed reciprocity trade treaty.
1t is reported that the treaty reduces the tariff on
700 items of commerce between the two countries.
and that special interests in both lands are sure to
protest vehementy and abusively. Suffice it to say
that the treaty would be worth its salt if it failed
to arouse abusive protest
Ii the treaty did nothing more than arrange
reciprocal exchange of pine needles and pumper
nickel bread we should expect the oppostionists in
This country to proclaim loudly that those shrewd
canadians had made suckers out of us, and the op-
postonists in Canada to declare that those clever
Yankee traders outsmarted their innocent neigh
DORIS Thus it has always BEEN ever since the idea
OF tariff was invented and the fallacy that trade
can move on one-way street was first embraced
as a political creed
Over the years Canada has bought from the
united States about twice as much as the United
States has bought from Canada. When keeping such
good customer as Canada is at stake we hardly
believe it possible for the United States to sign
bad treaty.

BACK TO PRIVATE BUSINESS

ON every hand is evidence that the Roosevelt Ad-
~ ministraton is passing the nations economic
responsibilities back to private business. And for
tunatey there indications that private
business is preparing to reassume these response

the White House to the various government agencies

The key to providing jobs for the 20 per cent

manufacturing and utility industries, thereby slim

A SCHOOL FOR HUSBANDS

TINE school for brides which has been opened in
l. New York should be co-educational institu-
ton. BY the time branches are started in other
cities there should be bridegroom's department.
It is right and necessary to train girls in the art
of being successful brides. But how about the
bridegrooms? Are they to be permitted to 60 I'M
schooled?
For example, what boots it for bride to have
perfectly appointed apartment, with dinner waiting
in the electric range, if the bridegroom won't come
home to it? If he prefers to sit in pub telling
some stranger of his college days, of how he landed
the big order or of how he told the boss where to
get off. there is hardly any use having trained
bride. 1t just doesn't make sense.
To leave out the tavern-sitters what about the
unschooed bridegrooms who can't get their work
done in the daytime and forever calling up to
say they'll be late; that there is big sales confer
ence on?
Anybody must be blind not to know that the
training for marriage should start with the AS
things stand, a bride must be prepared to sing
Husband, dear husband, come home with me now, "
whether it be from the cocktail lounge the con-
ference room.
If all the late husbands laid end to end the
marriage problem would be in a fair way of solution.
