 Clark Howell, president and editor of the Atlanta Constitution
 wrote: T am in full sympathy with the p,lrpose of the organization Countries, like Individuals, gc

Washington. May 2. The "in- alienable constitutional right" of widows to work for S4, 46, or 60 Q week to bring up their children is now before the U. Q, supreme court.
 Judge Nathan !. Miller, chief co,insel for the United States Steel Corporation, put the issue plop up to the court in his argument against New York states minimum wage law for women and minors.
 This so-called right goes under the name of freedom of contract. Judge Miller argued persuasively that a great enlightenment of hue man liberty would be pereptrated if the court were to uphold the New York law.
 Miller did not appear for the U. S. Steel Corporation, and you even had to look behind MT. Joe Tlpal- do - the Brooklyn laundFyman charged with paying female enl- pIoyes less than S12.4i . week. to learn how Miller got into the case.
 The real fight - and the cash - was being but up by hotel men, woh didn't want minimum wages established for chambermaids and waitreSgeS.
 AchesOn to Rescue
 On the other side, uphoIding the law and charging no fec, was Dean Acheson, undersecretary of the Treasury until he was bounced by Roosevelt because he vigorously op- posed phases of the presidents gold policy.
 This seemed surprising, for ever since he was bounced, AchesOn has been with large corporation law firm here, fighting such New Deal projects as EVA power plants and Resettlement commit nlties. Here he was on the lb- eral side.
 Inquiry develops that Acheson still thinks of himself as Q liberal, even though he is outside the New

Consumers Join Fight


 The Consumers League had sought an able conservative lawyer to ap- pear to represent the interests of Massachusetts Illinois, Connecticut, New Jersey, New Hampshire and Rhode Island, which also have Ilin- mum wage laws. The leaguers per- suaded Thomas D. Thacher, Wall Street lawyer and former solicitor general, to aid them.
 Then it appeared that Solicitor General Henry Epstein of New York state, . son-in-Iaw of Max Steuer, preferred to handle the case alone. Thacher thereupon withdrew.
 An appeal was made to Acheson, who profnptly swung back to his old royalties and affiliations at the risk of offending some of his important clients. But the New York attorney general refused to give the normal consent for him to appear as amicus curiae Co friend of court. Acheson had to get consent of the other states and finally a. special order from the supreme court itself to ape pear for the widows and children. More "Brain Trust" Fun
 Hardly had your correspondent written that there were certain dan- gers in attaching Q brain trust" to a political organization before cer- tain parties who meant no good by Chairman Fletcher and the Repub- lican National Committee unearthed q pamphlet from the pen of Dr Thomas Nixon Carver. head of the republican brain trusts political economy division, written privately for a group of business men.
 Carver has . good word for Hit Ter and MussOIlnl and proposes to solve the unemployment problem by drastic curtalIment of relief, sterilization of the "palpabIy un- Rt," use of birth control tO dls- courage "mere biological urge." limitation of marriage to those who can afford to own and 0per- ate automobiles and organization of prOpertled classes to promote such . program.
 Senator Joe Guffey of Pennsyl. vania hopped to it when he heard about the pamphlet, described it ai the probable Republican alternative to New Deal policies. and read an article about it into the Record.
 It looks as if the democrats were going to use it as Q campaign docu- ment.

 The best thing that can be done to aid in solving this youthful crime problem" Hoover said in a prepared speech before the Inter national Association of Chiefs of Police, is to instill in the young the belief that whenever boy or girl is in trouble the thing to do is to go to the nearest police station for aid and assistance.
 Law enforcement agencies must make overtures to young persons to assure them that the first desire of the police is to aid them in solving their problems. There must be a stop to breeding fear and distrust of the police in the minds of the young

JEWELL IS
 NORTHBOUND

Homer Jewell, senior warden for the Alaska Game Commission, IS northbound to his Juneau head quarters aboard the Northwestern
 A recent Seattle Times, in an ar ticle mentioning visitors in Seattle, said Jewell arrived on the Alaska Game Commissions Brown Bear, 115-foot Diesel powered patrol boat which will undergo an overhaul.
 The Brown Bear, Jewell said, had just completed a three-month sur vey-patrol of the Aleutian Islands, during which a census was taken of the ducks, geese, auklets and mmre.
 There were fewer ducks and geese than were noted in previous surveys, he said.
 On the patrol with Jewell were 0. J. Nitric and c. s. Williams, biologists sent by the Bureau of Biological Survey to make the check. On Kagamit Island they discovered q mummy cave, containing four complete mummies in a fine state of preservation. They were indis- putably pre-Russian, he said, per- haps a thousand years old
 During the three-month patrol he said, the party saw the sun but four times.
 The warm waters Of the Pacific, meeting the cold waters of the Ser ing Sea, form constant areas of fog, 2 Jewell explained. We were right in it."
 They counted eighteen volcanoes, come of them very much alive. Jewell gave Capt John o. Sellevold. master of the Brown Bear, high praise for his navigation.
 We had only old Russian charts of the Aleutians to go by he said Capt. Sellevold landed crews on island after island possibly fifty of them and never rubbed the keel once IL was splendid handling. 7

CAPITOL DRAMA
 ]. IS CAREER OF
 l. EMPIRE BUILDER
Love Behind Prison Walls
 Show in "One-Way lick ct at the Coliseum

| Walter Huston returns to the screen at the Capitol Theatre to- might in the drama of Rhodes, the Diamond Master" Empire Builder, Jungle Conquerer. The career of Cecil John Rhodes. the man who overcame sickness and poverty, who cornered the diamond markets of the world, who conquered savages, hwho brought civilization to the jun Egle, and who put his name on the Emap of South Africa, contains all Ethe ingredients that should make for greater portrait by one of the iscreen's greatest artists.
 The cast in support of Walter Huston includes Basil Sydney, Frank Collier, Oscar Homolka, Peggy Ash croft. Glennis Lorimer, Renee de i Vaux, and many others.
 At Coliseum
 | The drama that lies in the story of a girl reared behind prison walls as the daughter of the captain of the guard is effectively unfolded in One Way Ticket" which opens to- night at the Coliseum Theatre. Au- Authenticity certainly is not lacking lin this straightforward, dramatz- ed account of the girls love for a convict in her fathers charge. Con- vict 27117, Lloyd Nolan justifies the lreputation which is rapidly lifting him to Stardom.
 Walter Connolly performs admir- ably as the captain of the prison guard. Peggy Conklin is Connollys daughter, the girl who falls in love with Nolan. This is Miss Conk- lins screen debut, but she has been Broadway stage favorite for sev- eral years. Edith Fellows comes very close to stealing the picture and others in the cast worthy of praise are Gloria Shea, Mana Bry- ant, Thurston Hall, George Mckay and Robert Middleman.
