Cohen in legal draftsInanship and Corcoran In many fields, cspe.
 cIally that of generalshlp behind the scenes. All have had exten' slve experience outside the New Deal.
 Corcoran and Cohen rank as spe- cIal assistants to the attorney gen. eral, in addition to important legal jobs under REC and the National Power Policy Committee respective. ly. They seem to get the toughest White House assignments.
 Much of the anti -Corcoran and Cohen attack Is based on the de- fusion that they were responsible for the badly licked, perhaps fate. full, court plan. Attorney General Cummings plotted that one exclu' Niyely with Roosevelt. This fact may help dispel the notion or rom and Ben" es top brain' trustcrs.
 Nevertheless Roosevelt at once called them In as shock troops for the carly administration drive for the plan. With Jackson they wrote speeches and arguments, recruited speakers, primed witnesses and col- laboratcd with members of Con- gress. Later command of the fight was taken over 'by the Justice De- partment and then by Senator Joe Robinson. ..
 After the Rest Failed
 In the last campaign Corcorall, Stanley High and Judge Sam Ros. enmar-who was on the presidential train--were collaboratorS on Roose- velts campaign speeches. In the previous administration corcorai, and Cohen had fought the lobbles of the stockholders, investment bankers and public utilities.
 Roosevelt had given them the Se- curites, stock market and public utilities acts to draft after other men had failed to produce what ne wanted. He ordered them to nurse these bills through Congress, coop. erating with members, in order to prevent cmaSculation by the lobbies. Copyright, lo37, NEA Service, Incl

Both Considered Genuises

Neither functions as @ general ad- wiser of the Tugwell or Moley type But their scalps for anyone who would strike at Roosevelt, are well worth getting. Corcoran, ubiqul- tous, super-energetic, brilliant, IS the Presidents favorite trouble shooter, liaison man, co-ordinator, concliator, ghost-writer and sales man.
 Cohen, his teammate and room mate, has drafted laWs--none or which has yet been found vulner- able by either Wall Street lawyers or the Supreme Court,
 Both have been dragged unwil- lingly Into the llmellght. Cohen k naturally . recluse, but Cor Coran was called by Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes "the most alive man I ever knew." Both were con. Sldered "genluseS" by their prO- fcss0rs. Both have bocn exposed to the Brandeis-F -Frankfurter lnfiu- ence.

Irrigation Old

Irrigation is as old as the first
farmer. In ancient Egypt, as now,
the water of the Nile was stored
during the annual overflow and dis
tributed later through small bitches,
notes a writer in the Washington
Post. More than 1000 years before
Christ, the Babylonians had a great
irrigation system, based on the
Tigris and Euphrates rivers, which
enabled what is now a barren waste
Of sand to support a huge popula-
ton. Palestine, with a scanty rain
fall, has always found irrigation
necessary. China has $4,000, 900
acres under irrigation and India S.
600, 900. This is about double the
area of irrigated land in the United
States. Japan, Australia, Italy,
Spain, southern France and Mexico
also depend on irrigation for much
of their foodstuffs, -

Canadian Indians Cling
to "Big Canoe" Legend

The remnants Of the Indians in
the country surrounding Capes
Trinity and Eternity, the high points
on the Saguenay river, cling to the
ancient belief that the ark or, as
they term it, "the big canoe" rested
on the top of Cape Trinity, 1000 feet
above the level of the river which
skirts its base, and was placed there
by food which inundated the rest
of the EARTH. destroying all life
thereon, only the families of worthy
Indians, as well as pairs of the
various animals and birds, being
preserved by the Great Manitou,
whose guiding hand landed "the big
canoe" on the last bit Of earth left
uncovered by water.
The Indians also have a legend,
states a writer in the Philadelphia
Inquirer, which bears considerable
resemblance to the casting of Satan
and his rebellious followers out Of
paradise. According to the Indian
tradition, the Great Manitou cast
the fallen angels over the prec-
ipice of Cape Trinity. All met death
in the river below with the exception
of the leader, who was so strong
that the fall of 1000 feet only Grip
pied him.
AS this "angeP' gathered strength
he became the demon Of the river,
wrecking canoes, drowning peaceful
Indians and wreaking havoc in gen.
eral.
Mayo, the father Of the Indian
race, decided to seek and vanquish
him in a hand-to-hand encounter.
The battle between the two was ter
rife, Mayo swinging the demon
around his head and against the
rock of Trinity with such force that
the three great gashes in the noun
tain resulted from the conta cts, so
the tradition continues. Finally Mayo
was victorious, crushing out the life
of the demon and thus restoring
peace and quiet to the beautiful
waters of the Saguenay.

1t was the night before the darkest
day in the worlds history. On the
morrow the Son of man was to
hang on Calvary's tree for the sins
of the world-for your sins, and for
mine. But for the moment he was
alone with his disciples. The last
Passover had been eaten together,
the betrayer had been discovered,
ard the Lord has told them that he
was soon to go where they could
not follow. Peter had, by his bold
self-assurance, brought forth the
prophecy of his denial. The disciples
were disturbed. Then came from the
Saviour the words of comfort, as
surance, and power which have been
the strength and solace of his peo-
pie through all the centuries. Our
life both here and hereafter is in
His mighty hands. ..'
1. Comfort wv. 1-3).
Troubled hearts are everywhere,
in the palace and in the cottage, on
land and sea. There is a place Of
rest, thank God! There is One who
still speaks the majestic words,
'Let not your heart be troubled,
We believe in God, believe also in
me-"
His comfort is one which covers
the future life, for he says:
1. 81 60 to prepare a place" (v.0.
Concern about future destiny is set
tied at once when Christ Jesus be-
comes our Lord and Saviour. We
need worry no longer. He has gone
on before to the Fathers house to
prepare a place for his own. When
we come to that ever-peaceful shore
we shall not come as strangers, but
as sons and daughters to a prepared
place in our Fathers house.
2. 81 will come again" (v.3) is
the word that gives present mean
ing to the future promise. He not
only prepares the place, but he it
is who brings us there. The glorious
hope of his coming again is the
Christians greatest comfort nd
mightiest incentive to useful, holy
living.
. III. Assurance wv. 4-1D.
The doctrine of Christian assur-
ance is one of vital importance,
and should be taught in all it's scrip
tural power and beauty. Unfortun-
ately it has so suffered violence at
the hands of some of its friends
that others have not only come to
fear it, but even openly to oppose
it. This is most regrettable, for it
is manifest that until one has as
surance he will make but little prog
ress in Christian usefulness.
The believers assurance rests
fundamentally on Christ himself.
Two grounds are given in the text.
/. ST am the way, the truth, and
the life" ". 81. These words are
their own best commentary. Read
them again, slowly, weighing tn e.
meaning Of each word. If we are
in him who is the way, how safe
we areI If we are not in him? Read
his own sole~2n words in verse 6.
