 The guest box will be replica of the County Court House, over which will wave the Stars and Stripes, and with the playing of the Star Span- gled Banner following the close of the Grand March the hall will be darkened and the Flag brought in- to sharp relief by a white spot while the entire assemblage stands at at- tention.
 Patrons and Patronesses, an- nounced by the committee, are as follows:
 Major and Mrs. E. o. Gruener; Captain and Mrs. Charles E. Rounds; Major and Mrs. Frederick G. Crabb; Major and Mrs. Ellis B. Baker; Captain and Mrs. John H. H. Alden; Captain and Mrs. Vernon H. Hodges: Captain and Mrs. Charles McCelland; Captain and Mrs. Philip H. English: Captain and Mrs. Fred erick W. Halloway and Captain and Mrs. Harold N. Dorr.

Two Plans Studied

Among plans being studied by the presidents advisers are Senator Jo- Seph c. O,Mahoney's federal corpo- ration licensing bill, a program worked out by Secretary of Labor Frances Perkins, and proposal for remodeled NRA, backed by Don- aid Richberg, and Assistant Secre- tary Ernest c. Draper.
 Chief of the advising group is John G. Winant, former republi- can governor of New Hampshire, former assistant director of the International Labor Office, and, recently, chairman of the Social Security board. Roosevelt chose Winant because he wanted a non- partisan of distinction who wasn't connected with any Of the various factions lined up behind various plans.

A large pile of re- concentrations for new NRA" leg iSlation mas accumulated at the White House and Roosevelt has ask- ed special group of advisers to study them and help formulate a program.
 Although details remain to be worked out, 1t is remarkably safe to predict the main administration bill will cover wages and hours exclu- sively, and will contain no proyi- sionS as to trade practices or any other phase of business regulation. A federal board Is planned to handle the establishment of max

 in American industries.
 Present indications are that pro- visions in the bill will give that task to the National Labor Rela- tions Board.

Conscience Bothered Him

The story of Winant's resignation from the Social Security chairman ship is almost a fairy story. He in- sisted on quitting because his con- science bothered him, although ore iginally he had left a $25,000 job with the I. L. O. at Geneva to come here.
 Winant privately insisted he didn't belong in the chairmanship -because he was . republican. He had repudiated his party dur ing the campaign and gone on the stump for the Social Security Act after Governor Landon attacked 1t. But he kept insisting to Roose- welt: T won't pretend to be . Democrat when I'm not"
 No such sensitive conscience as Winant's has been seen here since the days of Grover Cleveland. Apology for McGrady
 The General Motors Company sent one of It's highest officials to make personal apology to Assist ant Secretary of Labor Edward F.

It happened while he was trying to mediate a strike at Toledo.

THE LIVES OF SCHOOL CHILDREN

THE LIVES OF SCHOOL CHILDREN
The CHASTITY disaster in New Lon
don, Texas, which claimed the lives
of about 700 school pupils has stun
ned the entire nation. Scarcely a nor
NAL individual can read of that ap-
palling loss Of happy, young lives
without q mist in the eyes or huski-
ness in the throat.
to be, the tragedy was small in pro-
portion to the continuous toll Of
youthful lives on the streets and
highways of the nation. The serious
ness of the traffic death rate, how
ever. has never been impressed upon
us with equal dramatic force because
it spread across greater range OF
time and space.
A young life is crushed beneath
the wheels of rapidly moving truck
in one city, school girl is run down
by reckless driver in another loca-
ton, vivacious boy riding on a
sled or coaster wagon becomes the
victim of another accident in some
place remote from the one recorded q
few hours before. And frequency and
regularity of such tragedies have
made our sensibilities calloused.
These so-called unavoidable acct
dents will, of course, continue to take
place regardless of the volume of ed
itorial space devoted to the subject.
But careful education of boys and
girls on the elements of safety and
effective enforcement of traffic regu-
lations plus the inculcation of an in
terest in safety among automobile and
truck drivers will save the lives oil
thousands OF school pupils every
year.
There is little we can do about
such unexplainable disasters as the
New London, Texas, tragedy. There
is something we can all do about the
greater tragedy, namely the accident
toll on our highways.

THE SPIRIT OF
THE CONSTITUTION

Approximately a century and a
half ago delegation numbering many
of the greatest minds of all time as
sembleR in Philadelphia ostensibly to
revise the Articles of Confederation.
A dismal future faced the nation they
had fought and worked SO gallantly to
lring into being. The thirteen states
rapidly assuming the character of in
dependent sovereignties, and all th,,
animosities that arose between citi
zens of one commonwealth and those
of neighboring state threatened the
very life of the young nation.
The Articles Of Confederation I'M
der which they were loosely bound
proved to be quite inadequate to pre-
vent a reign of Interstate anarchy.
So sitting in secret session through
out summer they drafted the Con
stitution of the United States in or
der to create government with pow
er to serve the people. They recognize
ed the necessity of strong, central
lied state. To accomplish this they
managed to win some powers former
" held by the independent states.
They took one Of the greatest for
ward steps ever taken in all history.
They were the liberals Of their time.
They were men who saw the need OF
q government OF power and authority
to preserve the blessings of liberty
and democracy.
The motives that prompted theil
action and the purposes to which they
adhered with steadfast courage. are
IDENTICAL to the motives which prompt
the Administration of Franklin Roose'
welt in asking for more liberal Su.
preme Court and an application Of
the liberal spirit rather than the let
ter of the constitution to cur present
day problems.
The very men, we firmly believe
who oppose the Presidents program
today and laud the trainers Oh tn
constitution are of the same type ant
1End as the conservatives Of the cal
lier days who denounced the consJilu
ton because it robbed tho stetcs 6
their rights and powers.
When We analyze tn1s constitution
a. issue and when we endeavor to ap
ply the sayings of men long dead =
issues before us now, we fall into
serious error. The economic and socia
structure of our nation has change
so materially during the life of tn
constitution that a new application y
the letter of the document must b
made to preserve its spirit.
The editor of this paper is amoni
those who approve the President
program because we believe that tn
political philosophy of the founders
of our government would view pres
emit day problems and issues in tn
light Of conditions that now exist
For it must be realized that they, too
were men who were ready and willing
to depart from dead tradition whe1
the welfare of the nation hung in th'
balance.

Brawley Ends FL Centro

By BURDETTE KINNE
Post Press Sports Editor

The confidence of Jack Starl
and George Cutshaw in Bob FL.
liott's ability to play ball has beer
justified for Bob, a former E
Centre high school athlete, is lit
orally burning up the south At
lantic league in Georgia
His team, the Savannah Indians
are now leading the league ano
his hitting power and fielding prov
ess is responsible tor a great deal
Of the teams success.
Bob is leading the league in
triples, is third in home runs,
among the leaders in runs batted
in, and is hitting well above the
800 mark.
The sports editor of the Colum-
bus daily recently summed up Bob's
ability in an article in which he
interviewed Carlton MolesWorth,
Pittsburgh scout. Following is part
of his column:
"Molesworth was here watching
the Savannah club in action. Pitts
burgh has a working agreement
with Savannah and the veteran
scout was here to look over the
prospects for big league material.
Scouts don't talk very much,
that is they don't say anything
definite, but Molesworth praised
several players who wore Savan-
nah uniforms.
He let it be known, however,
that he thought Bob Elliott, the.
Indians left fielder, looks mighty
good to him. AS a matter of fact,
Bob Elliott ought to look good to
everybody except the opposing bats
men who knock flies into his ter
ritory, for he is one of the best
fly -chasers who has ever per-
formed in this or any other league.
He can and does get a ball that
goes within a mile of where he is
standing at the time it is hit.
mot only did MolesWorth break
down and admit that Bob Elliott
lie good ball player, but he in
dicated Bob will not be chasing
flies in the South Atlantic league
next season. Where he will go was
not stated, but the scout said
Elliott is in for a promotion.
"The Pittsburgh scout had good
things to say about several Savan-
nah players but he indicated that
Elliott is the best prospect. And
anybody who doesn't agree with
him hasn't seen Savannah play"
The promotion the Columbus
writer refers to would be either
To the major leagues or TO Mont
real in the International league
