q. o. P. USING "PRoFs,

Do you remember how bitterly the
ed for bringing in a group of economic
experts from the colleges to advise on
New Deal polieies7 Do you recall the
innumerable cartoons presenting youth
full persons in cap and gown as the
real government of the United States,
engaged in the desperate office of
substituting Soviet doctrines for Am
erican institutions
If it hadn't been for their concept
ion of the "brain trust' that was pre-
sented as furnishing Socialistic dream,
and Bolshevistic processes which
President Roosevelt innocently signed
because he did not know what it was
all about, the Republican National
Committee would have run out of am
munition during the '36 campaign.
The starry-eyed amateurs furnished
the background for nearly all of the
Liberty League proclamations and
speeches. Latterly, as the Roosevelt
policies worked out successfully and
dividends reappeared on the stock
exchange horizon, the tendency to at
tribute all New Deal legislation to the
brain trust lessened and there was less
assumption that everything the Ad-
ministration was doing or had done
was the product of the minds of theor
lists and academic dreamers.
1t must come with a shock to the
s1lurian G. O. P. spokesman to read in
a newspaper that specialized in attri-
buting the New Deal policies to i'm
practical and radical academicians
that their own party was going the
college route.
On the day that this was written the
New York HeraldTribune announces
that President Dodds of Princeton and
President Conant of Harvard have
been invited to accept the post of
chairman of the Republican Commit
tee of One Hundred that is to form
the platform of the next Republican
Natlonal Convention. Moreover, we
ore advised from the same source that
ex-President Angel Of Yale and Presi-
dent sproul of the University OF Cal .
ifornia are also on the tentative list
and the only reason that Glenn Frank,
former president Of Wisconsin Univ
Coulee City dispatch. [volume] (Coulee City, Wash.) 19??-19??, 1937-12-02

ersity, hasn't been invited is some
of his friends have advanced him as o
Presidential candidate.
Free Hand for Professors
1t might be urged that to get a col
iege president as the head of this
extraordinary committee might be for
the purpose of window dressing or to
avert the embarrassment Of choosing
between the advocates of Herbert
Hoover or Alfred M. Landon. How.
ever, the New York Herald Tribune
indicates that this is to be a real
brain trust, for not only Is the lead
ership of the policy-forming commit
tee to be entrusted to one of those
named but "it is promised that free
hand would be extended to the pro,
gram committee and that the chair
man would take part with the Repub-
hcan executive committee in choosing
the hundred or more members to
make up his committee"
In other words, members of the
same group, for the employment of
which the Roosevelt administration
was so bitterly arraigned, are to be
called on to do the star-gazing for the
q. o. P.
Of course the theory of domination
Of the Roosevelt administration by
the brain trust of it's early days was
simply one of those pleasant fict1ons
begotten of campaign necessities.
These men were brought in as stats
ticians and as students of political
economy, whose life work it had been
to learn all that had been learned in
the progress of civilization of means
and methods by which other peoples
and other countries had through the
ages handled the problems that had
to do with government finances, pro-
duction, mass relief and such things.
They were of different minds, with
different theories. The President u.s.
toned to them all and made his own
decisions and the administration
formulated its own policies in the
light Of all the information he could
gather from any source.
When it came to writing a plat
form, which is a declaration of poll
cies, the job was handed over to such
veterans at this business as Cordell
Hull, Senator Wagner, and others in
their class. The other fellows appar-
emily intend to 60 the whole way, for
ii the college presidents have an equal
part with the Old Guard and the rad
lcal wing of Republicans in forming
the committee, it means that they will
40 most OF the platform building.

to the report Of Harold Louehary.
chief patrol officer Of the State Game
Department.
In most cases arrests charged unlaw-

OF deer meat. In three instances poacn-
ers were arrested with two illegally
killed leer APIECE in possession. An
other man when arrested had parts Of
four deer in his possession, all Of the
venison being contraband.
Game Protector Paul Hughey traced
an exaggerated report that 20 elk had
been killed by an EXPEDITION Of outlaw
hunters in Mason county to find two
COW elk slain by John Arnold and Don
Anderson. The offenders were fined
$250 apiece. and have been sent to
the Mason county jail to serve out

The Washington State Game DE-

Virtually no birds have been lost

In tip to those who are lending
their assistance the State Game De-

require grit to digest their food.
With grit almost as inaccessible az

that small particles Of gravel OF sand
be distributed with bird feed whsrs-
