Contrary to the popular impress
sion that imports decrease en-
ployment in this country, the sta
tistics of the Federal Reserve from
the years 1919-1935 show that
during every year in which i'm
ports increased, factory employ
ment also increased. With a single
exception, the figures also reveal
that during each year in which
imports decreased. factory en-
ployment also decreased. Natu-
rally, when importers bring into
this country goods from other
countries, they start a chain of
operations which includes trans
portation. servicing, processing.

that the United States usually ex-

rubber crop and gum rosin; one
third of its agricultural ma
chinery, sewing machines, lubri-

GENERAL COXEY
NOW 81, STILL
SEEKS OFFICE
PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE
OF FARMER.LABOR PARTY;
TO MAKE RACE IN COMING
GENERAL ELECTION
By J. II. COLBURN
ASSOCIATED Press)

COLUMBUS, Ohio, June a
High-cOllared, gray haired Gen
eral" Jacob S. COxey, still marches
to the political wars.
This time he is the presidential
candidate of the farmer-labOr
party, and, although he decided
against entering Ohio's primary
May IL, he has obtained informal
ton relative to making the race in
November.
General" Coxey, who attracted
attention AZ years ago by leading
an army of unemployed on
Washington, declined to partici-
pate in Ohio's primary on the
ground it was a "farce." He was
named presidential nominee at
farmer-labor convention in Omaha
last July.
Cited History
The veteran campaigner for
"money-at-cost" said the Ohio pri-
mary decision was prompted by
the fact that although he pOlled
the highest preferential vote-75,-
S44-in the primary four years
ago, Republican convention lead
ers refused to recognize him.
o hio' 5 preferential ballOting
provides only a popularity test as
the result is not binding on con-
vention delegates.
Coxey, former mayor Massillon,
Ohio, and now a resident OF Jack
son, Mich. has actively supported
the Townsend plan of 5000
month pensions for all over so
years old.
Holds Unorthodox Views
General Coxey-he got the
title on the historic march TO the
capital-has long advocated unor-
thodox economic views.
Beginning life as a mill worker
and engineer, the wrinkled 81
year-old perennial candidate for
public office went into the scrap
iron business and later purchased
a silica sand quarry which made
him prosperous.
Among Coxey's fin anci
schemes was one to provide legal
tender money without interest.

Another five to four decision of
the Supreme Court has voided the
Municipal Bankruptcy Act, under
which Congress two years ago au-
thOrized political subdivisions of
States to readjust their indebted
ness in Federal courts. The ma
jority held that the law invaded
the rights of the States but JUS
tees Cardozo, Brandeis. and Stone
and Chief Justice Hughes agreed
that the statute had been framed
with ''sedulous regard to the struc-
ture of the Federal system"

By this time, it is apparent that
a majority of the Court is ada
mant in its opposition to New Deal
legislation, although three Justices
have expressed their approval in
twenty-five dissenting opinions.
This means that there will prob
ably be no effort to amend the
Constitution. The Administration,
looking at the adverse decisions
as temporary obstacles, will press
toward its detectives. Meanwhile,
the President will fill expected
vacancies in the Court with jurists
holding views in accord with the
liberal" Justices. Two appoint
ments would thus provide the
majority necessary to sanction
most OF the upset legislation.

Billings road officials predict that the
highway will be one of the most popular
drives near the city when completed.
The old airport road was considered
by some to be favorite scenic drive,
but little comparison can be held be-
tween the two drives when the new
road is completed, they say.
The Montana highway commission is
contemplating construction of a scenic
drive west Of the airport and when
completed, motorists will have 10-mile
highway over the tops of the rinrocks.
Yellowstone county officials ex-
pressed the possibility of developing a
city park in the rimrocks area in which
the new road is being built. It is a
game preserve although dry conditions
offer little vegetation for the birds and
animals Several persons interested in
the project pointed out that natural
landscape formations would make the
park development job an easy one.
A group of Billings citizens deeply
interested in civic improvements have
suggested the construction of an OBJ

spend ten or fifteen minutes talk
ing about golf to the boys at the
cigar stand, or reading the funny
papers. And the day he made his
record he spent the saved time,
plus quite a few minutes more,
boasting about it.
Of course, Jim has to weave in
and out of traffic occasionally,
cursing the slow-pokes who move
along at a sedate forty-five. And
sometimes he has to steal right

crash by an inch, and after the
