HARRY W. FOX GIVES
PICTURE OF u 7
REFORM PROPOSAL

Organized labor expressed its ap-
proval recently of President Roose-
velt's judicial reorganization pro-
posal before Harry w. Fox, repre-
senting Labor's Non-Pa artisan
League. Nearly every craft and
trade in Silver Bow County were
represented in the meeting. Harry
w. Fox is the executive secretary of
the Wyoming unit of Labor's Nom
Partisan League and is under in
s~tructions from the national organ
ization to cover all intermountain
states, namely, Idaho, Wyoming, Ne
vada, Utah and Colorado, in the in
terests of President Roosevelt's re-
forms. He is well known in labor
circles in Butte, having been here a
number of times before in connection
with labor matters. During the
period of the effort to reorganize the
miners in 1926, he took an active
part, coming here from Wyoming,
and forsaking his duties there as
president of the Wyoming Fedora
ton of Labor. Mr.. Fox has also been
a frequent visitor and speaker at the
conventions of the Montana Fedora
ton of Labor. He is well known to
Mr.. Graham and the officers of the
=.
Federation. Mr.. Fox was president
Of the Wyoming Federation of Labor
during the period from March, 1916,
to August, 1888. He has been con-
nected officially also with the United
States Government.
The meeting at the Finlen Hotel
was called to order by President
James Comba of the Silver Bow
Trades and Labor Council who in
troduced MIR. Fox to members of or
ganized labor that YER gathered in
the hall. After expressing his pleas
ure of being in Butte again and of
meeting his many old friends and
new ones, the Labor's Non-Partisan
representative launched into a his
tory of the Supreme Court and how
it has been changed. This was fol-
lowed by an exposition of the propo-
sitions which had been submitted by
Mr.. Roosevelt. The speaker assured
the delegates that there is nothing
unconstitutional in the whole pro-
posal and that it was a reasonable
and sane proposition. Labor prac-
tically has its mind made up to sup
port the President. They can see no
harm from these proposed changes
but were glad to receive the inter
probation and the construction of Mr..
Fox and to have their own thoughts
verified. Mr.. Fox showed a very
comprehensive and deep understand
ing of the subject. Many questions
were propounded to him after he had
ceased speaking at an informal SEES
sion later in the evening. The labor
organizations through their repre-
sentatives at the meeting pledged
that they would notify both Con-
gressmen and both Senators and also
President Roosevelt at the White
House of their approval.

The spirit of Tn His Steps," which Charles M Sheldon wrote over forty years ago and which has since been read by over 50,000 ,000 people throughout the world, has been caught in the screen story sug- gested by this great work, which concludes it's Juneau showing to- night at the Capitol Theatre. Pro- duced for Grand National release oy the veteran producer B. F.

They are the most popular stellar team on the screen today, having won outstanding laurels by their brilliant performance in "Ah, Wilderness" and Old Hutch" to name the two mast recent screen successes.

SPORT SLANTS

The Fordham attack, which showed promise of going places in early season tests only to sput- ter against Pittsburgh. began hit ting on all cylinders in the closing minutes of the Fordham Texas Christian clash.
 Coach Jim Crowley's sophomore backfield hopefuls clicked just in time to make 7-6 victory over the Horned Frogs possible They had begged down three times on the threshold of a score. That the youngsters kept trying despite the discouraging goal-line stands of the T.C.U. forward wall was a tribute to their courage and promised bet ter things.
 That the boys profited by the ex- perience with T.C.U. was borne out week later, when they downed previously unbeaten North Caro- lima in the Southerners backyard. The team showed a drive that most have warmed Sleepy Jim's heart.
 To Dominic Principe, a rugged, fast-stepping sophomore fullback, must go great portion of the cred it for Fordham's new found punch. Principe carried the ball on three successive line smashes and over the goal-line against Texas Chris tian. He gave the Rams confidence in their ability to score. Now that they have that confidence the Rams are likely to be very hard to beat.
 Not big for a fullback. Principe weighs less than 180 pounds. He makes up for his lack of heft with hard running and high knee ac- tion that makes him a difficult target for tacklers. With each Sat- urday he gains poise and football sense. As he has improved, so has Fordham's attack.
 Fordham has its usual defense conscious line. Pittsburgh, Texas

Continued rains during the past
several days brought waters to a

slight compared to other areas along
the Potomac, the Monongahela, Ale

places were flooded for the third time
in 10 months, including Pittsburgh
and it's outlying districts, Wheeling,

Ferry and other towns to the east.
Johnstown was flooded to a depth of
five or six feet. A severe storm drove
water from the Chesapeake Bay into
streets in Baltimore.
