BERLIN, Jan. 20, -Adolph Hit Ter, starting his rule of Germany for another four years with drew Germany's signature on that part of the Versailles treaty in which the Reich was declared guilty" of launching the World War.
 Addressing the Reichstag, in a message awaited by the world, he asserted that Germany's re- sumption of military sovereignty was a matter affecting only the Reich.
 "We have taken nothing from any nation,nor have we done any nation wrong," he said. Hitler announced the government would henceforth hold sole sovereignty over the federal railway system and the Reich's bank.
 "The Nazi movement is the most beautiful and the most per feet democracy" he shouted.
 By way of contrast he said the hundred and seventy thousand deaths ''is an achievement of the democratic revolutionaries in Spain", as he concluded his ad- dress setting wild enthusiasm loose among his listeners.

 He received the unanimous de cision of Referee Arthur Dono- van and two judges, but failed to show anything resembling his customary dynamic punch again. st his opponent who beat a swift retreat most of the time, but likewise outsmarted the negro at nearly every turn.
 Louis had a big weight advan- tage, scaling two hundred and three and quarters, while Past or weighed only one hundred and seventy nine pounds.
 Louis was slow turnout the match, and wild in his aim, and at the finish of the fight, was bleeding from the nose.

Dimond Asked For
 Naval Base In . Alaska
(By The Associated PreSs>


 WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 30, Delegate Dimond today asked Congress in a bill, to authorize the establishment of naval base in Alaska.
 He said he doubted whether it would receive consideration dur ing this session.
 Eventually, however, the Navy will have to establish base in Alaska. This will at least lead to the consideration of such a project. Such a base is necess- ary for the adequate defense of the United States and the Ter ritory," he said.
 The bill would authorize the Navy to spend not more than one hundred million dollars for the construction of a base, which would embrace drydocks, ammuni tion storage facilities, repair shops etc. The selection of the site was left to the Navy.

Unquestionably the "Editresses''
could have done better than to ask
Of me a story about the women of
twenty years ago. If they have some
especial interest in the women of
that period, another should have
written the story. Twenty years
ago / was middle aged, married and
myopic Had they requested an ar
ticle about the women of thirty
years ago, or better, forty years. l
could have based my statements on
more interested observation.
Let me think. what were the wo-
men like twenty years ago? What
did they eat: how did they dress:
what did they do? didn't see much
of them. For that matter, no one
saw as much of them as they do to-
day, for they had more around them
and got around less. Their diet was
not SO carefully regulated; stream
lining was not in vogue. They ran
more TO curves and curls. Their hair

What do the husbands of Ten
Thousand club members think of
clubs and club women? Just try to
find out.
They won't talk, these club huS-
bands. With one bright and shining
exception they steadfastly refused
to throw anything but charming
bouquets at clubs and club women.
1t wasn't natural. Not at all hus-
bandlike. There was only one huS-
band among the many interviewed
who had the fearless courage TO
stand up like man and toss a few
brickbatS. Even he admitted he
could do it only because his wife
happened to be out of town at the
moment.
1t actually is sinister. Perhaps
club work teaches a woman to keep
her husband under her thumb
sufficiently to control his conVersa-
ton. After all, if a man let's his wife
be a club woman he certainly should
be permitted to speak his mind
about the goingS on. But they aren't.
Anyway they don't.
However, there are many ways OF
finding out What a man thinks
about things even though he won't
talk The darlings were as shy as a
bunch of violets fresh with dew.

What do I think of clubs and
club women? l think the whole
thing is a lotta bunk and a lotta
hooey. 1t takes too much time away
from me. Club wives are never
home. There never is any time for
meals. And I'm not selfish either. .

"Women'S club activities give the
members a grasp of community and
civic affairs. BY taking thoughts
away from ordinary Housekeeping
routine, they furnish women with a

This makes a wife a more interest

compensates for the uncertainty

This could go on forever but it
won't. Not that there aren't more

NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
THE FRIGHT" TO WORK

AS The New York Times pertinenty points out
the most frequently heard arguments in defense of
the legality of the st-down strike is that employees
have vested property right" in their jobs.
The fact of the matter is, The Times says, that
che fright" to a job does not mean the fright" to
a particular job but the fright" to work and earn
living
Suppose worker turns out to be untitled for
the task in hand through no fault of his own, but
simply because he is not qualified by temperament
or by training or by ability for this kind of work
The Times continues.
"Or suppose that he turns out to be lazy, intem-
perate. or insubordnate? Can it be seriously ar
gued that anything but chaos would result if, in
either of these circumstances, the worker had a
property right" to this particular job, and that
the management ought to have no power to replace
him with better man? What price would the con-
sumer pay for his goods under such regime? How
long could any industry keep going.
In some establishments, it is impossible for an
EMPLOYER to fire an employee for incompetence
without strike on his hands. The unions insist
the employee has property right in his job,
Carried to its logical conclusion that would mean
that employees also have property right in the
thing that supplied their job-namely, the firm,
They would, therefore, be on an equal footing with
investors
Does the hired man who chops weeds for the
farmer own the hoe ne uses? Does the maid have
a property right in the washing machine she runs
for her mistress? Does the stenographer own the
typewriter her boss furnishes?
Those last questions seem silly, but are they any
siler than the argument that factory employee
owns the job in which he works and therefore a

JUST ANOTHER LAW

We have said that the Wagner Act, in spite OF
The Importance attached to it, may turn out TO De
inst another law It's chief benefits to labor are to
recognize formally the right to organize and the
right of the majority of workers in concern to
act as bargaining representatives OF all workers.
Neitheriis revolutionary Industry in the past mas
been able to deter organization but never wholly
TO prevent it where the workers were of that mind.
Majority representation is new, in principle, but
in practice it has been the rule to extend conces-
sons obtained by some of the workers to all of
the workers. There have never been two sets OF
payrolls and two kinds of work weeks.
And as for avoiding strikes, there is considerable
doubt that organized labor intends to make use OF
the Wagner Act for that purpose. For instance
the gathering of textile workers from over the
Carolinas here last Sunday were told by one Clo
speaker:
eve wish to penetrate the industry III peace
full manner and We do not want strikes. Get the
workers to sign the cards and9once you are organ
lied, if the employer refuses to deal with you and
takes an arbitrary attitude then there Will be lett
only one thing to do--strike."
This hypothetical situation is precisely the sort
TO which the Wagner Act was meant to apply-pro'
vided the employer is in interstate commerce. But
instead of preparing to invoke the law, labor be-
thinks itself fire of the pre-Wagner Act nstru-
ment. the strike Thus we have the textile industry
bopinp that labor won't resort to the Wagner Act
and labor ntmating that it won't bother to resort
to the Wagner Act. That doesn't sound like any
