The Old Gardener SAYS:

When the foliage of dahlias has
been damaged by frost, cut the
stems to within 6 or 8 inches of
the ground. Clear away the rub
blsh and on fine day dig up the
roots. One should not put the
tubers into their Winter storage
at once, however. for dampness is
fatal to them. 1t is better to
place the roots, each one labelled,
upside down in dry. airy shed
and to leave therS there for
week. All moisture will then drain
out of the hollow stems and the
tubers will be dry. Store them
in dry sand or dry soil in a box,
as dryness is essential to good
keeping. Examine the tubers
occasionally and remove any that
may be decayed. They may be
protected by mat thrown over
them in exceptionally severe
weather.

washington, April 9 = You can hear anything you want to hear the effect of the Senate Judicary committee hearings on the progress of the battle over the Presidents Supreme Court plan: None of 1t. however, can be proved.
 Candid men on both sides are willing to express doubt whether the situation Is very different now
 than it would have been had the
 hearing never been held.
 Numerous views are having
 fine airing and, such as 1t Is,
 plenty of ammunition Is being piled
 mp for use In debate on the Sem
 ate floor.
 But, the pro and con lineup in the Senate is about the same, with a large reservoir of -comn1ittal votes from which most neutral sleuths believe the administration will be able to pull enough to put the Roosevelt plan over by small margin. There is no reason to be- lieve the hearings have had any particular effect on public opnion. The incoming mail stirred up by the issue has fallen of. That still coming shows a more favorable tone than the first deluge, but this ap- pears due to the concerted effort of organized labor groups. (One re- hection of the labor effort is a sprinkling of demands that justics not be permitted to receive $20,000 a year for the rest of their lives when they retire.)

Industry Dominates

Valuable as the rccreational in dustry is to each New England state, the New England Council never loses sight of the fact that now. as, in the past, the great bulk of New Eng lands income, and employment for most of its people, are derived from our manufacturing industries. For thatreason, the Council overlooks no opportunity to publicize New Eng land as an industrial area.
 In modern industry, relations with government and the community are of paramount importance. The present governors of the New Eng land states have declared themselves as most favorable to the further in- dustrial development of the New England area.

Work of 1s Years

Twelve years ago, successful en- terprises and communities in New 5ngland were handicapped by a propaganda unfavorable to New England. The councils persistent fact-finding, supplemented by con sistent and constructive publicity, have stopped all that. Today, the rest of the country accepts New England as an area of exceptional economic progress, accomplishment and stability, envies this sections possession of so unique and effective an organization as its New England Council. #s
 When the Council began its work, New Englanders themselves did not appreciate the value of their recrea- tional resources; they did not real- ize that they provide New England with supplemental income of sev- eral hundred millions of dollars 8 year. Only three of the New Eng land states were doing any adver- Using to attract summer residents and visitors. Today, in keeping with the Councils recommendations, each of the six New England states has. an official agency for publiciz- ing its attractions and' advantages as 8 vacation area.
 The Council went further. First by privately raised funds, later sup plemented with public funds jointly provided by the six governors. 1t az gressively and effectively advertised New England nationally as a pre- ferred vacation area.
 Thereby the Council increased the number of New England's summer residents and visitors. whose spend- ings in New England are estimated to aggregate $500, 100000 year. They are employers of people; prr- chasers of the products of farms and factories; and, many of them, payers of 8 full years taxes who de- mand only two months public ser- vices, not including schools.
 The Councils promotion of New England as a winter sports area has created a large volum, of new busi- ness for New England's manufac- turers and distributors of equip ment and garments.

agement of wealth-production in the New England areas That is why so many banks, year after year, con- tinue their membership support Of the Council.
 The agricultural associations of New England participate in the creation of the New England Coun- Gil, and throughout its existence their interests have been represent ed in the Council by bona. fide agri- culturists. The influence of the Councils Agricultural Committee has been steadily exerted in favor of the better marketing of New EnglandS farm products.
 State Divisions Aid
 The state divisions of the New England Council are also helpful. Each is free to deal with any mat ter affecting the economic welfare of its state. One State Council re- gently led in successful movement to relieve its industries of a burden some tax on machinerq. Another led the way in uniting diverse in terests upon program for meeting new revenue needs in its state. A third assists in promoting the rec reational development of its state. The whole idea is to use the Coun- Gil machinery4to provide leadership and promote cooperative action as occasion may require.
 Vitalizing Force
 The New England Council as whole is a vitalizing force for New England. It has silenced the "ca- lamity-howlers" of ten years ago by assembling the facts as to New Eng lands real economic position and progress. It has provided a forum in which the business leaders ol New England can make themselves heard, and supplied machinery that can be used for the good of New England, whether in an emergency, such as the 1927 or 1886 floods, or for promoting the sale of idle plants in these six states.

Hith the passing of the depression, the Council has organ ized representatives of railroads, power companies, chambers of conn., merce, etc, into an effective sales force for getting of the market New England's idle plants by. filling them with new industries.
 More than 20,00O,0O0 feet of fac- tory space in New England was brought back to use and occupancy by these sales efforts last year, and the Council now maintains master file of industrial properties in New England available for rent or sale.

Seek Balm for Wounds

Administration supporters are gtv- ing serious thought to the problem of healing wounds after the battle lis over. This is comparable to Roosevelt's prediction desire for an "era of good feeling" after the victory he expected.
 This "era," if 1t began, was
 punctured by the Presidents Su-
 preme Court message to Congress.
 The fact that New Dealers are
 worrying about this phase may be
 taken as indicating that they ex-
 pect rahter narrow squeeze
 when the Senate vote is taken.
 The opposition has been taking advantage of the hearings to start, iu effect, the filibuster which is ex- pected to begin formally when the issue reaches the Senate. No one seems to be quite sure what good f1ilibustering will do, but an extra month of delay in which outsiders instead of senators do the talking is as valuable to the filibuster cause, pehhapS, as a month in which mem- bers stretch their endurance powers in the Senate. So administration at- tempts to cut the hearings short have been blocked and the oppo- sition has been rounding up a wide variety of witnesses. Don't be sur- prised if you hear Shirley Temple is testifying against the plan.
 None Defend Court
 Perhaps the most surprising thing about the hearings is the common failure of witnesses to come to de- fense of the Supreme Court and its decisions of the past three years. Almost without exception, all have agreed that something must be done to reform hte court or the Constitu- ton. Republican leaders, Liberty Leaguers and other regular de- lenders of the courts conservative majority have summed the witness stand. For tactical reasons, based on memory of the election results, opposition senators have refrained from calling such outstanding con- servatives as John w. Davis and Al Smith.
 Nothing has been more clearly proved than the fact that you either like the Presidents plan or you don't like 1t, and that you're either afraid of 1t or you've not.

 1887 Plans

Backed-in Connecticut as else whereby principal businessmen and leading business enterprises, the New England council moves forward apsce with its program for develop ment of the six northeastern states.
 Plans for 1887 were discussed and approved Friday, March 19, at the 46th quarterly meeting of the council, at Providence, where the 12 directors of the Connecticut division met with those of the other five states, and other members.
 The Nutmeg delegation consists of: Allerton F. Brooks, vice-presi- dent of Southern New England Tele- phone; s. Mclean Buckingham, for- mer Connecticut commissioner of agriculture; O. L. Campbell, vice. resident of Connecticut Light & Power company; John A. Coe, Jr., of American Brass company; Frank c. Hatfield, vice-preSident of Phoenix (fire) Insurance company; E.

Shippee, vice. president Hartford Connect Trust company and James w. Hook, president of Geometric Tool com pany and now president of the council. Harry R. Hay is executive secretary of the Connecticut divi- sion, with headquarters at Hartford.
 Function of Council
 The Council functions as an or- ganization through which the eco homie progress, achievements and opportunities of this region are made better known to Its own peo- pie and to the rest of the country, an agency through which these states and their business interests work together for the solution of common problems.
 The Council was created In re- sponse to demand from groups in every State, representative of the business leadership and economic needs of those areas. I
 When the Council was created in ! 1925, the governors of the New Eng 1 land states acted as sponsors for the new organization, securing for New England unity and articulation. | Their successors in office, without | have accorded the Coun- ell official sanction and cordial CO., 
 The Council was conceived In the | spirit of New England individualiSm and self-reliance, and shaped in keeping with New England charac- ter and traditions. It is conducted with view to assisting New Eng land to maintain pre-erninence in the face of rapidly changing condi- tionS and in an era. when associated, cooperative endeavors are as nec- essary to progress as are individual effort and initiative.
 The creators of the Council want- ed an organization that would tell the world about New England-itS accomplishments, and opportunities.
