Here is the brief story of home
town boy who, in spite of early and
serious reverses, has made good. 1t
concerns Donald j. Jones, of Hamilton
In giving the details Fred Stephan,
secretary of the local Moose Lodge
No. Sc, said:
Application was made to the gov
ernors of Mooseheart by the lodge
for the admission of the boy to the
Moose Child City of Mooseheart, the
internationally known trade and aca-
demic school founded in 1913 by the
Loyal Order of Moose. The application
was granted, and Donald was admitted
in August, 1929. With him came his
brother Robert and his sisters Rita
and Ruth. Ruth graduated in 1884 and
Robert and Rita are still at the child
city.
'sFor almost six years" continued
Mr.. Stephan, Donald Jones has en-
joyed all the privileges and oppor-
tunities of the Moose program Of child
welfare. This program means for
every Mooseheart child the best Of
care in homelike surroundings, spirit
ual and moral training and sound

tional. In the latter, Donald's voca-
tional training has fitted him as ar

KENTUCKY BOARD
Finds Operators Terrorize
Miners

Frankfort, Ky. (ILNS)-Confirm-
ing charges of the United Mine Work
ers of America, special investigat-
ing commission appointed by Gov.
Ruby Laffoon reported that "a vir-
tual reign of terror, financed in gen
eral by group of coal mine opera
tors in collusion with certain public
officials" exists in the Harlan county
coal fields.
The commission charged that Mar
Ian county operators oppress labor to
"amass fortunes" and recommend re-
moval of Sheriff Theodore Middleton.
Sheriff Middleton, the commission
said, "is in league with the operators
and is using many of his deputies
to carry out his purposes. s.. He
promised, if elected, that he would
continue giving to the people the right
Of free speech and lawful assemblage.
Yet after all this, he has proved faith
less to the trust" of the people.
Miners Rights Outraged
Included in the findings of the com
mission were:
That "peaceable assembly and free
speech are scarcely tolerated"
That homes of union miners and
organizers have been dynamited and
fired into, families evicted from their
homes, ballot boxes stuffed, organizers
arrested and held without bond and
the United States flag ''defled in the
presence of and with the consent of
| peace officers"
Miners Charges Upheld
The report cited testimony Of
Charles NJ. Barnes, of Cincinnati and
New York, chairman of the NRA
Bituminous Coal Labor Board for
South District No. i. Barnes charged
that the miners have no free choice
as to anything they may belong to,
such as church, lodge or any other
organization

STRAIGHT FROM
WASHINGTON
BY STEPHEN NJ. YOUNG
CnngreSSman-at-Large

IdIS6
This is vacation time for many, but
the president and congress will prob
ably work and swelter in Washington
until August. Talk of early congress
ional adjournment ended when the
supreme court walloped the NRA. Ref
erence to vacation reminds me that
some months ago my twelve-year- r-old
boy, talking with schoolmate said,
my dad thinks President Roosevelt
has done lot of good" The other
little fellow replied, "Oh, | don't think
so-he hasn't closed the schools yet.
Talk Of adjournment of congress is
now at low ebb. Many pending meas
ures have been returned to committees
for revision to conform to the recent
supreme court decision. Congress
may be in session for sixty days longer
in an effort to clear away present con-
fusion.
VGVV
This supreme court decision will
doubtless rank in Importance with the
Dred Scott case. The court nullified
| the NRA and all codes created there
under are imperative. 1t is now we'll
understood that congress has no power
to establish maximum hours or fix
minimum wages of workers engaged
in purely local or interstate business
| Various state legislatures must pro-
vide such regulations. Congress still
has power to regulate interstate COM
merce. Congress also must itself en-
act codes. The court decreed that the
president had no authority to estab-
lish codes in industry. Congress may
define interstate commerce and broad
en- that term to apply to all except
local and strictly intrastate industry.
The courts will accept that definition.
V&VN
The NRA, thrown into the ash can
by unanimous vote Of the supreme
court, has, during its two years Of
full life and health, provided jogs for
many unemployed and abolished child
labor. Even though this law has been
declared void, it is safe to assert that
| the American people will no longer
| tolerate in any section of the coun-
try the grinding Of bones Of little chill
dren into dollars for greedy employers
V&VV
| Senator Borah, following the SUI.
preme court decision, made this states
| manlike utterance: 'I do not wish tc
be understood as contending that the
constitution is a sacred document
never to undergo amendment. Neither
do | wish it to be inferred that the
| decisions Of the supreme court arc
above the consideration and criticism
Of the people. But / do wish to be
understood as contending the great
underlying principles of the American
constitution are indispensable to :
republican form of government thai
to strike at those underlying prin
ciples is to strike at the life of a rep
resentative democracy"
Y&VV
In 1882 Mr.. Hoover was president
The farm income for that year was
seven billion two hundred million dol
lars.
In 1884 Mr.. Roosevelt was president
The farm income for that year was
nine billion one hundred million dol
lars.
The farmers Of our country wer,
one billion nine hundred million dol
lars better off and took in that mucl
more real money.
The arguments can be made tha
even under the old deal this nigh
have happened. The facts are tha
under the new deal it DID happen.

contest over election of a county
chairman.
This will be settled, it was re-
ported, by the withdrawal of Theo-
wore Kinder. who was elected by
what the opposing Vandergurg
County faction terms steam roller
methods.
Manson Reicher, contestant of
Mr.. Kinder's election, probably will
be chosen at a new election.
Mr.. Kinder's election is believed
to have been engineered by the
Vandergurg County group con-
trolled by F. Harold Van Orman,
one of the leading candidates at this
time for the Governors nomination.
High lights of today's meeting

Another problem confronted the
delegates. 1t was whether the C.
men" of the editors would attempt
to bring in any sort of a report on
the alleged bipartisan activities of
some members of the Republican
state committee.
The Omen" of the Republican
editors are Arthur K. Remmel, FIT.
Wayne; George Stout, Lafayette,
and Paul Bausman, Washington.
They were chosen some time ago as
an investigating committee to de-
termine if any bipartisan alliance

exists between any officers of the
state committee and Frank Nc
Hale, one of Gov. Paul V. McNutts
chief advisers.
Rumor repeatedly has linked the
names of McHale and Burrell
Wright, treasurer of the Republican
state committee, to a working ar
rangement which has said to have
been in existence for some time.
Wright is the chief target, al
though other officers of the state
committee are concerned indirectly
among several accusations. Deliv-
cred to Wright is the charge that
he delivered for the state admins
tration a preponderance of the Re
publican votes in the 1885 House of
Representative when the state
liquor control bill came up for pas
sage.
This, of course, is something that
can not be proven because none of
the asserting representatives are
willing to make themselves look silly
by admitting that they voted for the
liquor bill, because Mr.. Wright told
them to do so.
