Lemke bill. He has not yet reached
his goal but he is optimistic, having
several tentative promises of sigma
ture. The trouble is that with every
day that passes, adjournment grows
closer, and we need thirty Legislative
days after the petition is filled with
its 21S names before it can become
operative. And the seriousness of that
shows itself every time the partisan
group demand early adjournment so
that they may attend to their primary
fights and make ready to scrap at the
national conventions. Yet much re-
mains to be done, notably appropria-
tions for relief and WPA, and the tax
bill that has just emerged in semi
final state from the subcommittee OF

sincerely believed in it. The salaries
and income of officers and regional
directors and organizers were unbe-
lievably large, with expense accounts
even covering tips and laundry and
food and the like. 1t was brought out
that a special effort had been made to
select the sub-Officials from among
retired ministers or clerics who could
not find or hold a call, thus making
! it appear that the movement had a
particularly divine appeal. But the
highlights of the hearings have not
yet arrived. DR.. Townsend himself
will testify in the coming week. In
the meantime, devoted adherents of
the plan insist that the investigation
is making their position throughout
the nation stronger than ever, and
they still aver that they welcome a
complete going-over of all their books
and records.
Then there is the special committee
on chain store competition with in
dependent business, and introduction
of measures in both houses embody-
ing recommendation and findings OF
that inquiry. Already there are signs
that big business is hauling out its
big guns in an effort to halt growing
sentiment for the bills that increas-
ingly are commanding support in Con
gress and that seem slated for passage
They will try to prevent unfair com

merchant a chance to live, but the
fiat boys are trying to scare the pub
lie by saying that the consumer will
suffer by virtue of the discrimination
of mass production on a large scale
at low cost. But the Patman-Robin-
son bill is marching forward, and has
a genuinely good chance of passage
at this session.
The new AAA program is gettin2
into stride, but not without its brick
bats. In the House during the week
a critical attack pointed out fabulous
benefit payments that had been made
to relatively few large producers in
the nation for not producing, and az
effort made to secure data and facts
only to discover that such a report
would entail far too much labor and
cost to be worth while.
Nevertheless, it has been pointed
out by one observer that while the
former AAA program paid farmers not
to produce, the newly-enacted legisla-
ton provides for program that in
justifying its work on the basis of soil
conservation, actually compels all
beneficiaries and payees to plant the
soil-saving crops. That is an essen
tial difference, and whereas the for
mer program may have been liable
to the criticism, at least in part
which it received, the new program
cannot be assaulted from that stand
point.
Meanwhile, Rep. Lemke quietly and
persistently keeps up his fight for the
open debate on the floor of his Frazier

in February, 1886. Kerosene ship
ments increased from 2,400,6SS to
2,597,534 gallons.
Speaking of the Supreme Court and
how these estimable judges render
opinions based on their social ard
economic concepts and not on their
legal judgment, Governor Olson called
attention to two Supreme Court de-
cisiOnS which are quite at variance
with each other. In one case the
court held that the depression must
be considered in determining the
value of utility for taX-making pur-
poses; on the other hand, it held that
the depression cannot be considered
in determining the value of the utili-
ty for rate-making purposes. This, Of
course, is consistent, however, with
lie utilities must be protected and
that the public go hang.
The testimony given by Mrs. Flor
ence r. Struthers, majority stockhold-
err of the Strutwear Knitting Company
of Minneapolis. in the injunction suit
before District Judge Martin Hughes
of Hibbing, was astounding to say the
least. Mrs. StrutherS testified that
she understood the American Fed
Grafton of Labor twas an illegal Or
ganization in this country and in the
state" She also stated that she
didn't consider it worth while to an
swer communications addressed to her
by the Hosiery Workers Union.
And we wonder why there are labor
strikes in some of our industrial
plants! Here is the head of a concern
employing hundreds of workers and a
labor organization is regarded by this
head as something outside the law.
One might accuse Mrs. Struthers of
abysmal ignorance, or with having an
Enlightened social point of view, but
a problem of no little magnitude is
presented in her attitude. Amicable
relations between labor and capital
are impossible when we have employ
ers like Mrs. Struthers. incidentally
it answers the question of why the
owners of Strutwear Knitting Com
pany and the Hosiery Workers Union
are unable to come to terms. With
more employers like Mrs. Struthers
and we are certain to have anarchy
and chaos in this country.

Mary, being very fond of mush-

to try it out very soon. It was
a French dish, Jane went on to
explain, and was often eaten
with snails and wild strawberries.
The dish sounded delicious and
since they were both so enthuSed
about it, I promised them a new
pyrex baking dish that would
show off their skill to advantage.
This new type of kitchenware,
in case you have not heard about
it, is being displayed at all the
downtown stores and makes it pos
Sible to cook food on top Of the
stove, bake, serve and cook in the
refrigerator, all in the same dish.

tainer filled with three flat some
things covered with ruffly stuff
like flaked cereal. These she
called pops"

them," / remarked, seeing the
meat.

And why bat wing sleeves, you
may ask? Comfort first, and ap-
pearance second, we might answer.
The sleeves are wide at the top, or
at the armhole as you could call
it, though they are really put
right into the coat, in raglan
fashion, without any armhole.
Extra Comfort
This width at the top of the
sleeves makes for extra comfort
in a coat. 1t gives plenty Of room,
so that the coat can be slipped on
or off, even when you are seated,
without any trouble. 1t makes the
coat supremely comfortable for
driving, or any other activity while
you're wearing it.
Furthermore, the width through
the top of the arms and the
shoulder gives a certain ease of
appearance which is to be diStin.
guished from the width you get
from a double breasted coat, and
which is very SportS-like and good
looking for spring. Such a coat
can be worn by almost any man.
Interesting Weave
The coat photographed on this
page today has the new bat wing
sleeves, and it is of a new fabric
too, which is equally important.
The material is herringbone che
viot, the herringbone about three
quarters of an inch wide. There is
a rich, silky sheen to the material,
and it is particularly good in deep
rich brown; and tans.
Incidentally, deep rich browns
are considered very smart for
spring. So this topcoat. photo
graphed for today, is one of the
rich browns. It has a Subdued
maroon overplaid, about three
inches square. which further en-
riches the color of the coat.
Other new features about the
coat are the wide peaked lapels,
which you'll find on many Of
this seasons smarteSt. 1t has
patch pockets, and with it is
worn a maroon carnation. toning
in with the maroon of the over
plaid.
A brown snapbrim hat Of
light weight felt. without welt
edge, makes a smart accompani-
ment for this topcoat. and
checked shirt and striped tie add
to the color and pattern of the
costume. To be sure. colorS and
patterns are mixed. but you can
see for yourself that the effect
is pleasing. and quite good look
ing and conservative on a man
with gray at his temples.

It wouldn't be a very good plan

be agreeable to them if you bring
a guest with you.
Even though you know the
groom SO slightly, he has given
you special compliment by in
