THAT HOT COAT
By WICKEy WAMBOLDT

sion | went into the section of the
rathskeller where only men were
accustomed to eat. Yet, before my
meal was served the manager
came over, coughed apolOgetically
and whispered into my ear nat
some ladies who had Just come in
objected to my coatlessness. Caus-
tically l replied for the benefit of
"the ladies" that for women who
chose to eat their lunch in bar
room they were inconsistency i'm
icky. The manager suggested that
| compromise by taking table in
a far corner. | told him to go to,
and stalked out. l had no further
appetite for lunch that day.
After. one summer Of lighting
the coat custom / never fought it
again. 1t was far more comfort
able to wear a coat and sweat
than to be sweated for not wear
ing a coat.
Man is called brave, but he is
coward compared to woman. Wo-
man has not only shed her coat in
summertime but she has arrayed
herself in what amounts practical
ly to nothing but a collarless,
sleeveless shirt with a long tail
and nothing much under it but a
pair of shorts. Whatever woman
wants to do, and things she has q
right to do, she does. She left of

SHOULD KEEP CLOSE TAB

The opinion was freely expressed by one or two
of the commissioners Monday during the discussion
about the granting of beer licenses that many OPP
:erators used this beer license a screen behind
which to sell liquor. Many of the beer joints in the
county are said to be open saloons and that liquor
is sold as freely as beer. ...:..
Another point made and one that should be I'M
pressed on all is that many of these stands open
all day Sunday and afford convenient loafing places
for those who seeking trouble, loafers drinkers,
and roustabouts They are outside the incorporate
limits of any town or city and, hence, not sub
ject to any of the laws governing corporate towns.
1t will be recalled that we have had one two bad
shooting and cutting affairs in such places in the
past.
The commissioners can not be too strict about
the granting of these beer licenses We believe they
are doing their best to keep the business from de-
veloping into racket in which liquor is the pre-
dominating sale. Certainly, they ought to carefully
Investigate every applicant for license to sell beer
and to see that his court record for liquor selling
is closely scrutinized. &c
Furthermore, the sheriff's office should keep close
tab on all these roadside beer stands, whose sole
business is selling beer. Can they make enough off
beer to justify their stand? -Gastonia Gazette.

WTASHINGTON.-It isn't exact
" -ly scoop to report that Re-
publicans have taken over the old
Democratic shibboleth of states
rights and that the Democratic
party is now carrying the bod for
the advocates of concentrated fed
eral power. There have been
laughs long before this over that
reversal Of position.
1t is more important to raise
the question as to how it will all
turn out, to guess which side is
riding the winning horse, and to
speculate as to the effects of the
result.
The tendency to national con-
solidat;cn has been sweeping
along iSr $50 years and in the
last 100 years, much of which has
been spent under Republican
presidents, there has been no i'm
portant step away from this fed
eralist trend.
One is reminded of this fact by
Irving Brant in his book, "Storm
Over the Constitution" subtitled
Democracy Turns to Federalism"
Mr.. Branf is chief editorialist for
the. st. Louis Star-Times and an
outstanding authority on the writ
ings of the Founding Fathers.
Z. u y
IN this campaign are involved the
- rights of property and the Re-
publican party, is the party of
property. In early days men of
Property took charge of the gov
ernment and rapidly expanded the
federal power. Now the men with
the most property look upon such,
expansion with loathing and shout
for the sanctity Of state SOW
ereignty. r-... .. .-... g..
Jefferson himself was the first
Democrat to abandon Jeffersonian
democracy in favor of Hamil-
tonian conception of national
power" says Brant, and proceeds
to prove it up to the hilt,I showing
that Jefferson was an anti-Fed-
eralist before he became presi-
dent, a Federalist while president,
and an anti-Federalist thereafter.

BEHIND THE SCENES
IN WASHINGTON
BY RODNEY BUTCHER

ITHE Fathers wrote a Constitu-
= ton for a strong federal gov
eminent in reply to agrarian re-
bellions and state legislative
threats of paper money and debt
cancellations, says Brant.
The Fathers soft-pedaled fed.
eral powers in discussing them for
public consumption, but privately
admitted those powers were
sweeping.
The states rights slogan served
the slave owners until the Civil
War-they "tried to build a state
bulwark around slavery by warn
ing that breakdown of state con-
troll meant monarchy and despot-
ism"
THEN began the rise of the cor
l. porate structure - until today
one corporation controls more
wealth than is contained within
the borders of 81 states. The COR
porations gained control of state
legislatures, took possession of
state governments.
Wage earners, small investors,
farmers, and the aged and infirm,
the author says, are among groups
looking o w a d the presi-
dent and Congress for protection
against "subjugation by" 200 cor
porations which own half the ma
tional wealth and exercise con-
troll through interlocking activities
of a hundred men.
THE supreme court has driven
l. wedge between federal and
state power, creating "a vacuum
into which moved the super-gov-
eminent of finance and industry"
Others argue that this is all to
the good, that the industrial oil
garchy" has brought prosperity
and higher living standards, that
extension of democracy means
Socialism, then Communism.
But Brant disapproves. He
urges, not a constitutional amend
rnent or a curb on supreme court
movers, but election of presidents
who will appoint liberal justices
who will concede to Congress the
extensive powers he insists are in
the Constitution.

FISH TOWS BOAT

UTICA, N. Y. (UP).-Charley
Zebley's "fish" story of seeing a
boat pulled a mile and half on
Oneida Lake was just another fish
story until the fisherman came
back with the proof. After being
dragged about the lake all after
noon by his catch, he finally
landed a 17-pound catfish.

So Mayor Alsop and a few
others of Jacksonville have pledg-

and leave them off if hundred
other men will do the same.

Free Lunches Giuen
ISL Children in Four
Schools in County

Four public schools in Imperial
county who have taken advantage
of the Works Progress administra-
ton free lunch projects. now have
l8l undernourished children receiv-
ing their lunches without cost.
The WPA furnishes the labor for
preparation of the food furnished by
merchants, organizations and the
Parent Teacher association. Cooks
and assistant cooks are provided
from the WPA relief rolls and the
work done under the supervision of
persons reSignated by the schools.
The school representative does all
the buying and bill paying in con-
nection with the projects.
The children receiving the lunch
es were weighed before the project
began and again one month after
the work began. All of the children,
except one with tubercular tenden-
cies. gained from three to five
pounds during the month. according
to WPA officials. Children not re-
ceiving the hot lunches at the
schools were weighed at the same
time and the greatest gain for a
single child in this group was one
and one half pounds, it was ex-
planned.

"ALL.BRAN KEEPS me-
IN SHAPE EVERY DAY.

"When / had eaten a heavy
breakfast, would feel logy. After
a couple of days of this, / would
have to take a laxative.
"One morning I had a dish of
ALL-BRAN. Believe me, it beats any
laxative, as it keeps me in shape
every day."-Wm. c. Billings, 1880
18th St., Denver, Colorado.
Why put up with half-sick days,
when delicious cereal will make
you feel so good? Because ALL
BRAN has "bulk" which absorbs
moisture within the body. Then
gently sponges out your system,
wipes away the listlessness, the
"blues," the headaches.
Scientific tests prove this nat
ural food is both safe and effec-
tive-worlds better than taking
patent medicines. ALL-BRAN is
guaranteed. Take it week. If not
satisfactory, your money will be
refunded by the Kellogg Company.

Will Begin Dec. IL,
Official Predicts

Lettuce shipments will probably
begin somewhere between Dec. IL
and 20, according to ]. B. Nor
ton of the agricultural commis-
sioner's office.
First car of lettuce last year left
on Dec. 3, the earliest shipment
on record being in 1880 when the

Shipments at Salinas have de-
creased materially and the price
has weakened, ranging from ST.

demand weak.
Arizona shipments will begin
somewhat earlier than Imperial

has been planted in that state
which will compete with the val
ley during the first part OF the
season, Arizona reaching its peak
usually as Imperial Valley gets
into its swing.
