Obey traffic laws. Heed warning
signs and signals. Cooperate with
traffic officers. Traffic regulations
often seem quite burdensome, but re-
member, the main purpose is to save
lives and prevent injuries.
Many a tombstone Is carved by
chiseling in trafic; most Of the time
through willful disobedience of the
laws Of the highway or the laws OF
common sense.
Stubbornness Is also frequently a
reason for disobedience of the traffic
code. Some rules seem silly and per-
haps are; others may seem altogether
unreasonable. Public opinion will in
time correct faulty legislation. But as
long as the laws are on the books let's
observe them. Just remember that
the other driver has no way Of knowing
what YOU think or how you react. He
has a right to depend on you to obey
the traffic laws.
Safe driving today demands obedi-
ence and cooperation. When motor
lists learn to play fair with the rules
and with each other the traf1c flow
will become not only safer. but faster.
Harmony in traffic, like the melodies
of symphony orchestra. can be spoiled
quickly by . few sour notes.

BUILDING TRADES
LEGALITY DENIED
Court Holds Both Rival Fac.
tionS Not Lawfully
Constituted.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Justice Jesse c. Adkins in District
Supreme Court ruled today that both
OF the American Federation of Labor's
building trades departments were IL
legally constituted at present.
Since January each Of the two de-
partments has claimed it was the
legal" department.
The one headed by J. w. Williams
and recognized by William Green, fed
Grafton president. asked the court TO
enjoin the organization led by NJ. j.
McDonough from calling itself the A.
F. of L. building trades department.
The injunction bill also asked that
Mcdonald be required to hand over
to Williams the departments funds
and property.
McDonough was elected at con-
vention in San Francisco last Sep
tember. The federation convention
later called that convention Illegal"
because bricklayers, carpenters and
electrician delegates were refused
admittance.
Green then called a new conven-
ton which the II unions following
McDonough refused to attend. Will
liams was elected at this second con-
vention.
Justice Adkins found that the first
convention was illegal because the
Big Three" unions were denied seats
and that the second was illegal be-
cause Green had no power to call it.
The court fight was part of the
biggest family quarrel in the fed
eration's history.

SHOWDOWN NEAR
Democrats and Republicans
Marshal Forces as March,

BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
SPRINGFIELD, Ill, May al
Democratic and Republican leaders Of
the Illinois House of Representatives
marshaled their forces today for what
promised to be a showdown fight on
the State relief crisis while hunger
marchers" assembled for another dem
onstration near the capitol.
Minority Republican members Of
the House, who have blocked passage
of q 3-cent sales tax as an emer-
gency act to provide relief funds. on
the eve Of today's battle offered
definite alternative proposal.
Marchers in Session.
Clinton Searle OF Rock Island, mi
nority leader in the lower chamber,
announced he would introduce a reso-
luton which would order and direct
the people of the State to pay into
the State treasury" all monies owing
the Federal Government-and that
such funds should be used for imme-
diate relief.
The vanguard of the hunger march
ers," after setting up kitchens to feed
the several hundred they expected to
attend from all parts of the State,
went into secret session to plan for a
mass meeting today. They said the
demonstration would be continued
with the entire group staying in
Springfield until a method to restore
relief, which ended May /, was found
State and city officials indicated
however, that the marchers would not
be permitted to stay on after the mass
meeting.
Democrats Hopeful.
Democratic leaders were hopeful
they could swing l02 votes for the
emergency clause of the sales tax
which would raise funds which Harry
Hopkins, Federal relief administrator
insisted Illinois must produce before
further Government money will be
supplied.
On four previous occasions Demo
Gratis have halted the roll call in the
House when it became apparent they
lacked enough votes to pass the bill
on an emergency basis. Today, how
ever, they have indicated they will
allow the vote to be completed, win
or lose.

What's What
Behind News
In Capital
Bank Ownership Plans,
Naively Announced,
Show Strategy.
BY PAUL MALLON.

TINE nonchalance with which the
New Deal came out left-hand-
edly in favor Of buying the
Il Federal Reserve System, lock,
stock and faults, was somewhat
mystifying.
Treasury Secretary Morgenthau in
terjected his Endorsement as sort
of "by the way" afterthought, while
testifying about the new bank bill
President Roosevelt murmured a quiet
approval while reaching for cigarette
at a press conference. Now, every
body knows that a Government does
not ordinarily indorse any such SEEM
ingly revolutionary suggestions in such
casual way.
But the Netp Dealers hdue per-
formed many unprecedented teats
before and haze performed them
casually. Consequently there ap-
peared to be more behind this
more than the of-hand treatment
OF it tpould indicate, and there is.
The underlying explanation why
MeSsrs. Roosevelt and Morgenthau
did not go any stronger on it appears
to be that they did not think it was
important. Apparently they neglected
to stress that because there are other
people who think it is, notably Father
Coughlin.

Furthermore, it is an ideal man.
tilla for the administration to wave
in the faces of the bull-like bankers
who are raging against the extension
of governmental power contained III
the new bank bill.
Four democracies have central
banking systems owned by the gov
ernment. They are Sweden, Finland,
New Zealand and Australia. (Of
course, Russia. Italy and Germany
have dictatorships) In France and
England, a fiction Of independence
is kept, similar to ours, but actually
it does not amount to much.
Holding Causing Concern.
The holding which is being done
on the holding companies bill in
side the Rayburn subcommittee has
been causing some concern inside the
New Deal. The subcommittee is sup
posed to have divided three to three
for several weeks, with one Demo-
crat siding with the Republicans
against the bill. The Corcoran-
Cohen board of strategy has been
working on the situation without
effect. That is why the bill was
rushed out Of the Senate Committee
with a top-heavy vote. The New
Deal boys thought it would have a
good psychological effect on the
House Committee.
HoiDeper. the House snag dp-
pears to be only detail. The
bill piH eventually be passed BY
both Houses in much the same
shape as proposed by the Senate
Committee.
Foremost Republicans say privately
that the reason their Midwestern
meeting was centered in Illinois was
to get away from candidates.. Ap-
parently a number Of party leaders
felt that the proposed big meeting in
Kansas would promote the prospects
of q well-known Kansas favorite son.
The oficial explanation, of course, Is
that they wanted to get into Lincoln
