gram will not in any way bar that
county from it's just share of fed
eral aid. Christgau is perfectly
right. Uncle Sam is supposedly try
ing to aid all communities in this
hour of need. Mr.. Christgau says
the idea is not to punish any
county, but to aid all counties. This
may not comport with the ideas of
the state administration, but 1t
will meet with public approval be-
cause it is absolutely just. The
countits which rebelled against the
state program said that it did not
seem just to force them to increase
their relief quotas when their To-
cal relief needs were being cut
month by month. The government,
through Mr.. Christgau, says it is
not trying to tell any county how
to run it's own business. But what
answer will the friends Of the
state administration make to the
situation? Our governor has said
he was the Simon-pure champion
of the farmer. The farmer has to
pay the taxes spent for local re.
lief. Why should the farmer be
asked to increast his tax burden
just to please the governors whim?
But the interesting fact Is that in

Why Not Adjourn Congress?

Immediate adjournment of Congress might do
to stabilize conditions in the nation than any
of the so-called security or relief measures now
pending, and it probably would be relief to the
public if the legislators would pack their suitcases
and return to their homes. Even the leading Demo
Gratis admit that the long session of legislative
bodies has not contributed greatly to the uptrend
of business might be expected, uncertainty
usually exists to lesser degree during any
session However, F. r DEGREES that they remain and
remain they must MUST has become of the by
words of the present administration Must legisla-
ton, etc. Every day that Congress remains in ses-
sion is costly to the nation, and the possibility of
balanced budget or reduced cost of government is
being badly unused.

No Jazzy Note at Festival Says Editor

At the recent band festival at Sank Centre there
wasn't jazzy note in the entire program, and no
one walked away because of it. The standard and
classical selections be listened to with satisfac
ton again and again. The jazz tunes, the other
hand, are quickly worn out and forgotten. At this
gathering the massed bands played medley includ-
ing number of old songs and refrans and the aud
fence seemed to be intent to catch every note said
the Brooten Review.
That is very true, and the interest in good band
music was manifested by the large number of folk
in attendance. After all, whether it be in Brooten
Sank Centre India China, good band is COM
munity asset which provides more and better enter
tainment than any other source of amusement

It begins to be quite evident that
there is a rift between the national
administration and the Farmer
Labor administration in Minneso-
ia. 1t is hardly to be wondered at
in view of Governor Olson's crlti-
cisms Of the President in recent
months. Some weeks ago 81 Mime
sofa counties decided that they did
not want to enter the state relief
set-up, and unless they could be
shown why they should greatly IL
crease tfeir relief funds, they
would go it alone. Along came Mr..
Zimmerman, the governors repre-
sentative, and said that the coun-
ties with failed to ''come in
would be cut off from federal re-
lief. Now Mr.. Victor A. Christgau,

relief in Minnesota, declares I'M

The proposed commission is in OPP

when rents are boosted, real estate

Committee Backs
Wagner Measure

Washington, D. c. (ILNS) En-
phatic approval Of the Wagner labor
disputes bill was given by the senate
committee on labor and education in
favorably reporting the measure.
The committee declared its belief
that the Wagner bill is necessary be-
cause Section IA had broken down
and because inadequate enforcement
powers had been granted the National
Labor Relations Board The report
said that in the opinion Of the com
mittee the bill was "a logical deyel-
opment Of aphilosophy and a consist
ent policy manifest in many acts Of
congress dealing over a period of years
with labor relations"
The committee also said that "the
time has come for a clean decision" to
withdraw the governmental guaran-
tee of collective bargaining contained
in Section IA of the recovery act
''or implement it by effective legis-
lation."

RENT BOOSTERS GRAB PAY
INCREASES

It is frequently charged that those
who own the necessities which work
ing men and women must buy in
order to live manipulate prices SO as
to appropriate much Of the increase
in wages and salaries.
This claim receives support from
various surveys Of the housing stu
tion in the District of Columbia. The
Investigations reveal that during the
past year landlords in the nations
capital have boosted rents around fif-
teen per cent, which represents the
wage restoration that congress gave
thousands Of government employees.
The activities Of boosting
landlo .ds have also extended to the
more expensive housing accommoda-
tions used by senators and represen-
tatives
In an attempt to remedy this con-
dition the District of Columbia com
mittee Of the house Of representatives
has favorably reported the bill spon-
sored by Representative Ellenbogen,
of Pennsylvania, which declares that
an emergency exists in housing con-
ditions in the District, and sets up a

FRIDAY, MAY II, 1885
THE BOURBONIsM or BUSINESS
ORGANIZATIONS

President Roosevelt hit both the
proverbial nail and the q. S. Cham
Der of Commerce on the head when he
told a press conference that to him,
the most interesting thing about the
speeches of the commerce gathering
was that not one Of them dealt with
the human side of things Not one
touched upon the plight Of old age
without resources. Not one of them
showed the slightest interest in or in
formation on unemployment. All
were dumb on human distress, but
wordy if not eloquent on the alleged
troubles Of wealth.
The president told the press con-
ference Of his experience in New
York, where he saw Chambers Of
Commerce, manufacturers organiza-
tions and other business bodies unite
against three important reform laws.
One was the factory inspection law
New York already had a factory law
which fixed reasonable requirements
for safety But it did not provide for
official inspection; the factories were
left to run themselves, as the Cham
Der IF Commerce approves; and the
result was the Triangle fire From
$50 70 200 women workers were burn
ed to death because greedy bosses had
locked the doors Of the fretrap in
which the women were working.
And even after that demonstration,
the New York Chambers of Commerce
and the business particularly manu-
featuring organizations, fought the
inspection law tooth and nail. And
they made the same struggle against
the workmen's compensation law, and
the law limiting hours Of labor for
women to 81 week! All these re-
forms were carried largely by the de-
votion Of organized labor, and in the
teeth of bitter and unscrupulous en-
nifty from business associations.
President Roosevelt believes that
the stupid, unlearning Bourbonism Of
business organizations are forced on
them by selfish minority Of their
members, and that the rank and file
of business is not opposed to reform.
One hopes that this kindly judgment
is justified. But business men who
want to convince the general public
of their good intentions will make
little progress until they clean their
own house, and throw out the re-
dictionaries who never consider the
human side"

THE FIGURES THEY DIDN'T


The annual report of the Cities
Service Co. to its stockholders con
tains some bits Of cheering intelli-
gence. The number of employees of
the company increased during 1884,
and So did its net earnings, but there
has been no general increase Of sal
aries or wages
But the most Illuminating bit Of
Cities Service history was left out.
Here it is
IN 1929, Cities Service stock sold
at high as $68.5O a share. At this
price, and all the way up to this
price, it was peddled practically from
door to door by high pressure sales
men, who unloaded it on school teach
ers, clerks, BARRIERS, street car work
ers, railroad conductors and fremen
and anyone else who could be in
ducel to bite.
Last week the price Of Cities serv-
ice stock ranged from $125 to $1.88
a share.

was awarded the purse for his cour-
age which was to be put to the su-
preme test year later when he sur
rendered his seat in a life boat to a
woman passenger and perished in
the sinking of the S. S. Vestris. The
award became permanent fixture
after the 1927 race.
Ira Hall won it in 1888 when he
pinned his wrecked car to the upper
wall with his shoulders and held it
there for ten minutes, preventing it
from rolling down into the swift NOV
ing traffic.
Gene Haustein won it last year
when he sacrificed his chances in the
race and crashed attempting to miss
another car spinning on the track.
