DoRTRAIT of cold morning;
L Two Butler University men
met. in little "owl restaurant" at
4:30 on sub-zero yesterday morn
ing. One Of them could hardly walk,
he had so many clothes on. They
were about to deliver papers, which
they do daily before school.
What have you got on?" the one
who was more conservatively dressed
asked.
Well" the other said, a bit
sheepishly, my long underwear and
two pairs of pants, pops sweater,
my brothers slicker, my sisters scarf
and my pajamas."
Then he ordered coffee and
doughnuts. He was told that the
dougl'nuts had arrived but were not
presentable. They were still frozen.
What you got on?" he asked the
other.
WELL" the other said, "I've got
my girls scarf, my hunting clothes,
pops gloves and I'm driving pops
car. My own wouldn't start
He slipped his coffee.
Good" he said, "then I'll ride
down with you to get the papers.
I hear we don't have to go to
school today. Personally, I don't
care how long it takes to deliver
these papers today"
A MILK delivery truck driver,
4 who had made professional
stop and remained as refugee
from the bitterness, chimed in:
81 don't aim to freeze to death.
If I get too cold, I'm going to stop
in some place and let that milk
crack the bottles. It's frozen be-
fore you can put it on the step, any,
way"
The bakery man, who delivered the
frozen doughnuts, and who remained
for a cup of coffee, pointed out that
he, personally, wouldn't eat any
pastry that day because pastry is
touchy about being too cold.

The Brook Park-Pine City high
school basketball game played re-
Gently was almost an upset. The
Brook Park boys had Pine City very
much worried the first half but the
Pine City team clicked during the
third quarter and held their lead
till the end of the game. The final
score was 16 to 8 in favor of Pine
City. Korsch and Hooker did some
splendid work as guards. Hancock,
Swan and Szymonik did good work
as forwards. Cook, the center. did a
nice job Of securing the tip-off and
of guarding. The work of the cheer
leaders, Edna Harapat and Dorothy
Libra, helped the boys put up fight.
Tuesday morning Mr.. Nuetzman
made a proposition with the high
school pupils. They were to guess
the total score for the basketball
game Tuesday evening. The person
guessing the closest would. receive a
free ticket to the next home game.
The winners were Doris Furrer and
Dorothy Marsh.
Those having perfect attendance for
the past six weeks in the freshman
class were Edna Ashcraft, Shirley
Gaddes, Edward Kolesar, Lucille
Lewellyn and Jean Nuetzman; in the
sophomore class Edna Harapat, Ray
mond Libra, Donald Mann and Edith
Smithson had perfect attendance; the
juniors were Dorothy Cherrier and

By A. 1. HARRIS

The unemployment insurance plan
announced by Governor-elect Elmer
A. Benson should meet with the ap-
proval of all liberals. The principal
feature of the proposed act is that
only employers will contribute to the
unemployment reserve fund. The
Governor-elect argues that this is the
only form of unemployment insurance
which will do justice to the workers.
He contends-and rightly-that indus
try should bear the brunt of its own
shortcomings, of which unemploy-
ment is one. There is no reason
why the worker should be penalized
for the faults of industry. Depres-
sions are not created by the workers,
but are due rather to inherent faults
of our economic order.
GovernOr-elect Benson furthe r
points out that to compel the worker
to contrib Ite to unemployment reserve
funds is in effect to lower his STAN
dard of living. This standard is al
ready too low and it should be raised
rather than lowered.
Governor elect Benson also recon-
mends the pooled fund type of unem-
ployment insurance as against the re-
serve account type. both of which are
acceptable to the federal Social Sc
curity board. The pooled fund type
is more advantageous to the worker,
because it will make certain that all
workers get the full benefit of the
law and not merely those in enter
prises where employment is more OF
less stabilized.
The coming Legislature is regarded
as certain to pass an unemployment
insurance bill. The reactiOnaries in
the last Legislature defeated an un-
employment insurance act, but the de-
mand for this legislation is now sc
great that it cannot be resisted. The
last election has brought home to all
politicians the message that the peo-
pie demand legislation of this kind.
Governor Benson also stated
that he will ask the Legislature to
set up an adequate and coOrdinated
public welfare system for MinnesOta
This has been needed for quite some
time. The agencies set up for tenn
porary purposes are now used to take
care of permanent needs. and there
is no question but that there is great
waste due to duplication of efforts and
inefficiency because of inadequate ma
chinery.
The Governor-elect is of the opin-
ion that the first definite need is to
set up county boards of public well
fare responsible for the local admin
istration. under state supervision. of
relief, old age assistance, aid TO de-

The appointment of Attorney Gen.
eral Harry H. Peterson to the Min
nesota State Supreme Court to fill
the vacancy created by the resigna-
tion of Justice l. M. Olsen is meeting
with general approval. The presence
Of another liberal on the Minnesota
bench is a very wholesome thing.
Mr.. Peterson brings to the bench
an unusual knowledge of the law to-
gether with fine social point Of
view. He believes that the consti-
tuition is an instrument made to serve
and not to enslave the people, and
that it is sufficiently flexible to meet
the peoples needs.
1t will be recalled that while the
National Administration was discover
ing that its program of relief and
rehabilitation was being declared un-
constitutional, Minnesota's laws, for
mulated by the attorney general. were
upheld. One of the most famous Of
these laws was the Minnesota Mort
gage Moratorium law which Mr.. Peter
son drew up and successfully de-
Tended before the highest court.
The progressive policies which Mr..
Peterson initiated as attorney general
undoubtedly will be continued by Will
liam Erwin, who was appointed by
Governor Hjalmar Petersen to sue
ceed him. Attorney General Erwin
is an experienced lawyer OF high at
tainment and. like his predecessor. a
thorOugh-going liberal.
The Hennepin County Farmer-LabOr
Central Committee and the MinneapO-
lis Central Labor Union demand an
investigation by the House into the
affairs of the Minneapolis Law and
Order League. This investigation
should be held.
There is no place in the American
scheme of things for self-constituted
extra-legal organizations such as the
Minnesota Law and Order League.
Under our form of government. en-
fOrcement of law is placed in the
hands of our courts and our peace Of
fcers: the only authority over them
is that exerted by the entire body of
American citizenship. Minnesota citi-
zens have not delegated the Mime
sofa Law and Order League to act as
their special watchmen.
While good intentioned people often
join organizations of this kind be-
cause they profess a respect for law
and order, they, in fact. are sowing
the seeds of the very antithesis Of law
and order. Almost invariably they
become the dupes of scoundrels who

selfish purposes.
1t is quite well known that some
Of the moving spirits of the Mime
apolis Citizens Alliance, one Of the
most notorious labor-baiting organi-
cations in America. took a very active
part in organizing the Minnesota Law
and Order League. These professional
labor-haters unquestionably had a
purpose which they thought could be
served through such an organization.
The Minnesota House in the next
Legislature could well conduct fruit
full investigation of the League and
dramatize the dangers involved in
such organizations. Black LegiOns
Silver Shirts, Ku Klux Klans. and or
ganizations of this kind are all out
growths of a common parentage, the
Vigilantes. They are all threats to
American liberty guaranteed under
our Constitution.
The recently announced German
Japanese pact against Communism is
a clear indication Of the growing
menace to the world of fascism. The
pact is nothing more nor less than
a military alliance and an agreement
on the part of Germany and Japan
to wage a war of aggression against
Russia
The entire foundation of all despotiC
governments is the exploitation anC
oppression of its own workers anG
farmers at home and ruthless attack
upon foreign democratic countries
Fascist relationships, with their en-
phasis upon extreme nationalism and
antagonistic racial theories, must in
the end have their outlet in war. The
sooner the world discovers this the
better for it's own safety.
1t is time that liberals in America
give serious attention to the growth
and dangers of fascism at home. The
Farmer-Labor movement in Mime.
sofa is alive to that danger. We can.
not wait until our Rev. Gerald K
Smiths and other fascists Of this
country organize a fascist movement
and military groups and attempt, as
they did in Italy and Germany, te
supplant law and order by force ani
violence. These movements must be
nipped in the bud at the first indi
cation of militaristic tendencies.

Schube1tS music to Shakespeare's
Who Is Sylvia" likewise seems to
be favored as the piece which the
composer jotted down on wine
card in a restaurant while chatting
with his companions. "Hark. Hank.
the Lark" also remains in the run
ming.
Few tragic operas have had a
more amusing first performance
than Verdi's La Traviata," from
which Mr.. Eddy has chosen the
familiar "Di Provenza" aria. The
text by Piave is based, of course, on
Dumas Lady of the Camellias":
the scene is changed to the France
OF Louis XIV, but the heroine still
suffers from pulmonary trouble.
To start the disastrous premiere, the
leading tenor had a cold. The BARI
tone, piqued at his subordinate part.
distressed the audience further by
very lanquid performance. But the
GROWING blow was dealt by the So
prano, a heroine of heroic proper
tons, cast as Violetta. When, as
a tragic climax, the doctor pro-
nounced the buxom lady an incur
able victim of consumption, it was
too much for the audience. Their
commissions of laughter nearly
stopped the show.
