The shower that Peg Tresvan
and Bee Edwards gave for Althea
Douglass last Tuesday night was
so lovely n'everything. Thea got
loads and loads of beautiful things,
the lucky gal. While presents were
being unwrapped all sorts of bright
remarks went the rounds and
brought giggles and more giggles.
Mil Brooks almost broke up the
gathering when she thought some
nut dishes were ash trays.
"OOh!" squealed Mil, "Just look
at the divine ash trays! Aren't they
adorable ?"
"They're not ash trays, they're
nut dishes, stupid" Kissed Peg in
an undertone that carried all over
room. (S'help me, 1 thought they
were ash trays, too, which goes to
show how much I know about the
latest trinkets for the home.)
Looks like the cullud students
are goin' to take over the campus
this year. S'help me, I never saw
so many people of color in all my
life! They pop up from all hooks
and crannies out there. The de-
preston is evidently over or else
a Going-Back-to-School fever has
suddenly taken hold of the young
folks.
Among the new students are
Betty Murphy of Baltimore, Mary
land, and Audrey Beatriz of Be
midi, Minnesota, formerly of New
York City. Betty comes to Min
nesota from two years at Howard
University and will enter the Jour
nalism School while Audrey enters
General College as a freshman.
Betty is member of Delta Sigma
Theta sorority, but 1 guess we
Minnesota AKA's will have to sort
of adopt her, Ell?
Sport Shots: No poker playing.
That was what Coach Bernie Bier
man told the lads on the football
squad before the team left for
Seattle to play the Washington
Huskies. Bernie said a little bit
of bridge was perfectly in order
but absolutely no poker playin'.
Wal, that didn't keep Charlie
Schultz, the curly-headed guard,
and Andy Uram, flashy backfeld
stopper, from asking Horace Bell
if he played a fair game of poker!
Horace, not being poker player,
said he didn't go in for calling the
cards, but Charlie and Andy
thought Horace was just being
modest and didn't want to admit
he was a hot-shot poker player.
Tuesday a letter arrived from
Homer Harris, the Iowa football
lad, and he wrote that Minnesota
would probably get walloped by
Washington. Isn't he little ray
of sunshine? And then to top that
off I saw Sheldon Beise, the full
back line-plunger of last fall, and
said:
"Shelly, guess we'll have to pray
for the boys, Saturday"
"Yeah,' cracked Shelly, "That'll
be about all we CAN dol" Merely
a remark, or a prediction?

Conflict Of Party Men.
Even without the issues centering
about the Supreme Court, Mr.. Roose-
welt is certain to find himself torn
between the conflicting groups of his
own party. 'f :.
Should he turn in the direction of
conservatism, as many believe he will,
despite the professions of his cam
paign speeches, the effect Immediately
would be to create left-wing oppo-
sition.
The situation is not unlike that
which confronted Premier Ramsay
Macdonald of Great Britain before
1881, and which, in that year brought
about the signal defeat Of the Labor
party at the polls.
Macdonald, through his earlier
partnerships, was plagued by left
wing opposition within the Labor
party, which nothing he could pro-
pose was sufficient to satisfy.
Because he could not hold together
his scant Labor majority. he was
forced constantly to turn to the Lib
erals and Conservatives for the votes
required to enact his measures, ano
these right-wing forces exacted toll
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1936-11-05

In the form of dictation respecting
his legislative proposals.
Macdonald thus was pulled more
and more to the right, until, in 1881.
in the face of a threatened collapse
Of the pound sterling, he went the
whole hog by throwing the Labor
party overheard and joining up with
the most extreme conservatives.
Macdonald, like Roosevelt, was es-
sentially an idealist, but in the end
his idealistic aspirations were sunk
by the necessities Of practical politics.
Roosevelt's position today is much
stronger than ever was that Of Mac
Donald, in that the Labor party never
attained more than a bare majority
Of the Parliament. Roosevelt, in con-
trast, has been vested with a Congress
answering, on paper at least, almost
unanimously to his beck and call
That he will have opposition goes
without saying, but, in the months
Immediately ahead at least, he is
likely to have the votes to enact any
measure he may propose.
For a guess as to which road
conservative or radical-Mr. Roose-
welt will take there is little upon
which to base a conjecture, excepting
his course in the past.
1t is fact that in every crisis OF
his administration so far he has

act, which awaits only the attempt
actually to collect the payroll taxes
on January / to bring it before the
court.
Lawyers are almost unanimously
of the opinion that the court, If it
remains as now constituted. will de-
clare both of these laws unconstitu-
tional. And by so doing it will create
two of the major points of conflict of
the next two years.
The labor relations act is an at
tempt to preserve the Federal control
of relations between employers and
employees which was nullified in the
previous decisions Of the Supreme
Court on the N. r. A. and the Guf1ey
coal act.
President Roosevelt's intention In
this regard is not a matter of doubt.
1t was expressed in his last majo,
speech Of the campaign, at New York.
"Of course" he said. I'VE will con-
tinue to seek to improve working con-
ditions for the workers of America
to reduce hours overlong, to increase
wages that spell starvation, to end the
labor of children, to wipe out sweat
shops,
Fight Just Begun.
"Of course, we will continue every
effort to end monopoly in business, t.
support collective bargaining, to stop
unfair competition, to abolish dishon-
orable trade practices. For all of these
we have only just begun to fght."
There could be no more complete in
dorsement of the ideas that were en-
bodied in the NJ r. A. and the Guffey
coal bill and which remain on the
statute books in the Wagner act, and,
no less definitely, the President stood
foursquare for the fundamentals Of the
social security act.
On the side of agriculture, he de-
clared for return to crop control in
some form when he asserted that I'VE
will do all in our power to end the
piling up of huge surpluses - and
to persist in effective action for .
stable food supply"
No method yet has been suggested
for controlling surpluses except by
some form Of production control.
The obstacle to the attainment of
these ends obviously is the Supreme
Court. The biggest single question CT
the months ahead is what the Presi-
dent will do about the court.
Six of the nine justices are past 10
years of age and five of them are past

that Mr. Roosevelt before long will
have the opportunity to appoint
enough members to give him control
of the court, and If he chooses not to
wait, but to gain control by increasing
the court membership. the election I'M
questionably has given him the votes
in Congress necessary to accomplish
this step.
But any move affecting the court
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1936-11-05

turned to the left rather than the
right. It was so, for example, when
he proposed his "tax-the-wealth" bill
in 1885 primarily to stem the threat
Of q left-wing third party which Sena-
tor Huey p. Long then was making.
BY his every act so far, Mr.. Roose-
welt has indicated q supreme desire
to go down In history as the founder
of a great liberal party and to this
end he has been sensitive to any
movement which threatened to take
from him the left pole in American
politics.
But Mr.. Roosevelt now has been
reelected for what, II American ira
dition holds, will be his last term
In the White House.
He Is charged with q greater re-
sponsibility for the future welfare
of the Nation than ever before has
been imposed on an American citizen.
1t Is safe to say that he does not
regard his philosophy as in any wise
antagonistic to the American form
of government,
There Is ground for believing that
his course thenceforward will be mod
eled with the intent primarily of pre-.
serving and strengthening this form
OF government.

just as certainly will arouse a strong
minority opposition within the Demo-
cratic party. The appointment of any
man to the court definitely identified
with the New Deal would be calculated
to excite opposition in the Senate to
confirmation of such an appointee,

proud of its achievements in building major
industry for the city, is host today at French Lick
to the National Live Stock Exchange 1t is the
first time since 1915 that the indianapolis Exchange
has entertained the national organization The event
recalls the rapid growth of the exchange here.
When the indianapolis Union Stockyards was
opened in 1877, the plant covered eight acres and
included only four Sheds Destroyed by fire in 1904
the plant was rebuilt on a larger scale.
This has grown until today the strockyards cover
$50 acres. The exchange building is one of the
largest in the city. Stock-truckng has developed
into another huge business, with trucks convergng
here from all parts of Indiana and from neighborng
states
The volume of business at the stockyards last year
totaled $42,oO0,Oo0. Capacity is about 10000 head
daily indianapolis has climbed to third place among

These are some of the reasons why the men who
run the big industry at the end of Kentuckyay are
proud to entertain their national organization
