There is a reason for the delight full informality of Bob Burns work on Bing CroSby's Music Hall" broadcasts. Bob saunters into the studio the afternoon of the show, carrying a copy of his routine, ana apparently unconcerned that noth- ing has been rehearsed for timing up to that point. The Arkansan sits out front, chatting with friends un- til Bing says: "Howzaboutit, Bob, are you in the mood to amble through your latest masterpiece?" Whereupon, he goes to the stage, spins some yarns about his myth ical relatives and then peers over Bing's shoulder to read lines pre- pared for him in the main part of the script. When cue comes for a bazooka solo, Bob unpacks the gadget 1and whips out a tune as though he had been rehearsing 1t for days. Meanwhile, Bing, his best audience, goes into a fit ot convulsive laughter, At no time is there a straining for points, or a battle for honors in Music Hall"

 In the eleventh annual observance of Narcotic Education Week. February 21-28, the World Narcotic Defense Association sought emphasize the growing menace of marijuana cigarettes especially to young people, and to combat their through the wider enactment of state laws and city ordinances. The legal fight against marijuana rests with the states and cities because there is no Federal law against its sale and use Federal legislation it is claimed. is barred by the Constitution. Marijuana, frequently called Indian hemp is not indigenous to the United States, but has been found growing in almost every state of the Unon.9 Hence the problem $ complicated far beyond the ordinary difficulty of keeping other forms of narcotics out of the country Marijuana cigarettes known by many names, Iamong them "muggles,' 'reefers," Mary Warner" !" ~grfo," and "mooters" When smoked in pipes, the drug is generally referred to kiff" Indian hay' At times it has been mixed with alcoholic beverages or made into candy confection #' In any of its various uses, marijuana causes derangement of the central nervous system In the case of some individuals it produces peculiar state of exhaltation followed by period of depression To others 1t may bring acute mania In any event, pro- longed use causes very marked mental deterioration md often deirous rage. Not without reason mari jaana has been called 'the killer drug" and crazy Tweed"
 Ohio among the B states which have adopted he Uniform State Narcotic Drug Act, can furnish several illustrations of the marjuana Tn Columbus, last October the killer of hotel clerk blamed his deed insanity resulting from the use # the weed In one town of the state, according to he International Narcotic Educational Association he finding of fifteen-y -year-old boy mentally de- anged from smoking marijuana led to the discovery hat 20 boys and girls of high school age addicts
 AwareneSs of the menace of marijuana should lead to the speedy enactment of appropriate legislation by he tagging states and cities.

bear the initial blame for these Strikes because of refusal to bargain collectively with the un- ions. One of the causes of sit-down cases is the demand of the strikers for union recogni- tion and the reply by the employers that they will deal with the men as group but not as members of union eschewing demands that they confer with union organizers whom they class as outside agitatorsA who ''stir up trouble"
 Frequently the union alleges that the enl- ployer does not come into court with clean hands" His refusal to abide by the National Labor Relations Act it is held, makes him res ponsible for the sit-downs. The employer, how ever, insists that this law is stitutonal and that he is not boundsby Hspendfhg the de- cision of the Supreme Court ~ st Tt Industrys attitude toward the sit downs involves the right Of property owners to ;retainY possession of their plantssa and factories.

Steel Goes To Town
(New York World Telegraph

CNew York World -Telegram)
 Two milestones in the labor relations of Amer- cas- basic industry-steel-were taken recently with amazing speed and surprise.
 A group of ndependents-companies not affiliated with U. S. Steel-established fortyhour week and a $5a day minimum pay for common labor, forecastng similar action by the entire industry s
 Simultaneously, officials of the Carnegie Illinois Steel Corporaton--largest subsidiary of U. S. Steel the first time in collective bargaining conference representatives of the steel wQrkerS organizing fcominfttee which is conducting the John L.. Lewis drive for indusrywde organization of the steel mills
 Thus. in single afternoon the steel industry completed two steps which followed weeks of strife in the auto industry-increased pay and collective bargaining negotiations. With them also came an apparent solution to the governments troubles over inability to obtain navy steel because of restrictions under the governments contractFact chief of which was the forty-hours week. ;!
 Looking back the years-and not many years at that-what happened was an epochal step from the days when the dominant United States Steel Corporation contended that the work day could not possibly be broken down into segments shorter than the twelve-hour shifts which were then in practice While the announcements of pay increases were attributed in some instances to thesefors of the called company unions, and while the single confer with the c. O.. represent lives not pro- ductve of any immediate result announcement nevertheless these events cannot be construed other than favorable indications in situation that has lately appeared very dark and dangerous We be-
 eve they will prove the light of subsequent events to be significant incidents in the long and stormy journey of American labor toward better hours and higher pay and that they will relieve much of the present pressure in what has been increasingly dangerous labor situation 1T

A PECULIAR CASE

 One can mentally picture the thousands and thou sands of city state and Federal employees throughout the and all making funny faces at the tax collector and letting the persons in private enterprise foot the bill One can vision the $1OoOO-a-year public em- poyee passing up March Is like any other day on the calendar while the army of tolers in private industry getting anywhere from s25oO until it hurts so that the large public salaries be maintained.
 Hardening to the minority opinion in the case, that naturally is the picture gets. There is how probability that the facts at issue are peculiar to that particular and that it may not have the far-reaching effect indicated.

THE SIT-DOWN STRIKES

Circuit Judge Campbell in Detroit has granted al injunction busting the sit-doWn strikers from fh Chryser plants The Court held that even ifethesNa tona Labor Relations Act is valid it does not giv the strikers right to occupy property.
 Sit-down strikes have become of the mos potent weapons that labor has eyer conceived to at tain it's ends Started in France it has swept to thi country with startling speed until now large per centage of our strikes conducted in that manner An interesting insight of the situation, it exist not alone at Chryslers but in all the stdown troubles is given by Louis Stark reporting for the New Yorl Times Commenting on the sentiment of both sides he writes:
 While employers united in opposition to sit-down strikes there is a division of sentiment in organized labor concerning their feasibility. Militant labor leaders and rank and file" workers particularly in the mass production industries, are strongly in favor of the method.
 If the plant is warm and the food paatabe, the sit-downers feel they can hold out indefn- itely for their demands, unless the public thorities use force to eject them. Also the in side pcketers do not suffer the danger of strike breakers taking their jobs They feel ,s. that gathered together shoulder to shoulder %p helps their morale and in the distribution of tasks inside the plant they learn to work to- gether.
 On the other hand, few of the conservative leaders of labor have a good word to say for the sit-down. These leaders, Nsusay in chssgex of unions which have lapg, SedWds of GQIlectives bargaining manT #aN 4g$ through < hard-fought strikes, fea# tlha lNa4 4AsA -devpM strikes may lead to laborssebblng legislation. They feel that public sentiment strongly geared toward the preservation of private property ands the maintenance of law and or der will ultimately react. The reaction. they say will come in the forra of laws strengthen ing the rights of property owners and re- strictve laws to hamper the right of labor to strike.
 Conservative leaders whose unions have contracts with employers alarmed lest some small group sit-down and by such outlaw action break the contract The sit-down strike. according to these labor groups, may also be- used as provocative" act by agents of thes employers, to enable them to put down netRF A ent labor unions in plants, rid the plarfB Of ~s union members and then reopen with non- union employees Premature strike action has killed many budding labor organizations. .-s--.

Bad Food, Bad Temper
(NeW York Times)

Ford Madox Ford the British novelist, is of the opinion that the present ferocty of the world is the esult of badly prepared food When people have pad cookingNpHey have indigestion, and when they laye indigestion they cannot be amiable with their el6Nk and want everybody belonging to a race other hanstheir o%n to be stood against wall and shot.
 It is an attractive theory, but it contains or flaws, Some people would say it reverses cause md effect that Germany for example, is not war like at present because it has bad food but that it reduced to food shortages because it is so warlike But there is more serious difficulty. Among the worlds worst cooks the English yet they are far from the most warike people in the modern world Further cooking was no better in the Victorian era han it is now but somehow the world was on the whole distinctly more peaceful As social theory, n short, MT Ford's conclusion is little too sweep ng, but theory that applies to many individuals 1t has great deal to recommend it.
