Baked Beans Not
On Jamboree Menu
Announcement States 10000 Eggs
VIII he Consumed BY Boys
At Breakfast Hour

Bountiful beakers Of baked beans
Drowned Boston-style, seem to be
absent from the magnitude Of items
included in the menu for the Ma
tional Boy Scout Jamboree to be
held from June Goth to July 9th at
Washington, D. G..
While baked beans have always
been regarded as a favorite Scout
fruit for the six Scouts from Troop
Is, OF this city who are registered
for the Jamboree, 1t seems they
should be satisfied with the meals

troop include: Russell Larson, also
registered for the World Scout
Jamboree in Holland, Raymond
Berggreen, Gordon Hedin, men,
secured in the Region 10
Scout band, Jim Cooper, John Par
ker, and Mickey Hansen.
AS Scouts from all over the ma
ton prepare for the coming jam
boree, and as only SO days remain

idea Of the enormity Of the encamp-
ment. Already registrations are

SO Scouts and three Scouters, total
ing 30540 Scouts and 2,448 Troop
officers. To that group 100000

ing $50 tons of foodstuffs daily.

quired for a single meal along with
900 bushels Of potatoes, $1,000
pounds of bread for single day.
10000 quarts Of milk will be con-
sumed and 1000 pounds Of butter
with a like amount for sugar daily.
To appease early morning hunger
of these 80 odd thousand Scouts,
10000 eggs will be consumed at the
breakfast hour.
A worldwide aspect will be talk
en- at the National Jamboree with
visitors assured from nearly 20
foreign countries. Delegations are

Mexico, Guatemala, France and
Poland, Chile, Hungary, Rouman-
ia, India, Australia, South Africa,
Bermuda and Haiti.

WiNSpeakA At NJ E.
Church April 20h
Miss Norma G. Brown, Temper
ance Worker Booked for APP
pearance In Sank Centre

Miss Norma c. Brown, represen-
tative Of the Minnesota Temper
ance Movement, win speak in this
city at the Methodist Church on
Thursday evening, April 20, at
eight o'clock. Her work in this
state is sponsored by the Mime
sofa Temperance Movement, Inc.
Rev. M. L. Brann, pastor Of the
Methodist Church, and Mrs. Pang-
burn, as the local committee, have
made arrangements for the ap-
pearance of Miss Brown in this
city.
Miss Brown, though still a young
woman, has more than fifteen
years Of national experience in this
cause to her credit. Before she was
twenty-three years Of age she had
been heard in every capital city
and every important center Of the
United States.
In the continental campaign of
the Allied Forces five years ago
she was the one woman speaker
on the regular staff. In that cap
acity she was heard in company
with such men as Col. Raymond
Robins, DR.. Daniel A. Polling, the
Hon. Oliver W. Stewart and 9TH
ers.
Miss Brown came out Of a pas
torate into this work. While her
early training and experience were
that Of a minister and while her
sympathizers remain unchanged, ii
Is often remarked that, measured
by her grasp Of governmental and
legal problems and the logic and
power of analysis, which charac-
terize her addresses, she talks like
a lawyer.
Everywhere her hearers contrast
her with the type some have grown
to expect in reform work. They
call her delightfully."- different"
Any community favored with a Wis
it by this unusual woman should
make the most of the opportunity
her coming affords.

to have a tribunal that twill not

of the congress on legislative pol

the court means that, then, said
the President 81 say that I and
with me the vast majority of the
American people favor doing just
that thing-now."
1.-THE court, in addition to the
proper use of its judicial functions"
said Mr.. Roosevelt, 'has improper
ly set itself up as third house of
the congress-a super-legislature,
as one of the justices has called it
reading into the constitution words
and implications, which are not
there, and which were never in

"We have, therefore, reached the
point as a nation where we must
take action to save the constitution
from the court and the court from
itself. We must find a way to take
an appeal from the Supreme court
to the constitution itself. We want
a Supreme court which will do JUS
tice under the constitution-not over
it. In our courts we want a gov
eminent of laws and not of men,"
Attorney General Cummings ap-
peared before the senate judiciary
committee to speak for the Presi-
dents court bill, and he used much
the same arguments Mr.. Roosevelt
had employed. Senators Borah and
Burke questioned him sharply and
searchingly, but he was agile in
evasion. However, he did satisfy
the opposition senators by admit
ting bluntly that the purpose of the
measure was to change the COM
plexion of the court, to get men with
liberal, forward-looking views"
Senator Dieterich of Illinois
sought to curb the questioning of Mr..
Cummings but was squelched by
Borah. Dieterich has not commit
ted himself on the bill but is now
classed among its supporters. His
candidate for the federal circuit
court of appeals in Chicago, District
Judge J. Earl Major of Springfield,
has just been nominated by the
President.
Assistant Attorney General Rob-
ert Jackson was the second witness
heard, and the foes of the meas
ure sought to prove, by questioning
him, that there is no actual need
for the judiciary bill to relieve con-
gestion of federal dockets and there
fore that the only purpose of the
measure is to change the viewpoint
of the high tribunal.

Court Orders Strikers
Out of Chrysler Plants

IRCUIT JUDGE ALLEN CAMP
~ BELL of Detroit granted an In
junction restraining sit-down strik-
ers from continuing to occupy the
nine plants of the Chrysler corpora
ton in that city. He declared the
strikers were in unlawful possession
of the plants and gave them two
days to get out. The Chrysler COM
pany has refused to recognize the
United Automobile Workers as the
sole bargaining agency for its en-
ployees, who number 1000. En-
forcement of the law was thus again
put squarely up to Gov. Frank Muir
ply, and both sides i the contro-
versy, as well as citizens generally,
waited with intense interest for him
to decide his course.
Governor Murphy, returning hur-
riedly from Florida, was taking
steps that he hoped would put an
end to the epidemic of strikes in
the states major industries. He
arranged a series of conferences
with law enforcement officers, and
industrial, union and civic leaders,
and appointed a commission of 20
to study the problem. Among the
members are Homer Martin, presi-
dent of the United Automobile Work
ers; Frank H. Bowen, regional di-
rector of the national labor rela-
tions board; Attorney General Ray
mond Starr, and James McEvoy,
president of the Detroit board of
commerce.
General Motors and the United
Automobile Workers of America
reached an agreement for the set
Element of all their disputes. It
covers wages, working conditions,
and recognition of the union as the
bargaining agency for its members.
Final acceptance of the pact by the
workers delegates was won by I'M
ion leaders only after a long strug-
gle.

Labor Relations Board
Hits Renington-Rand

p EMINGTON RAND, INC, large
N manufacturer of office equip
ment, was accused by the federal
labor relations board of violating
the Wagner-Connery act and of u.s.
ing ruthless" methods in trying to
break the strike of 5000 workers
in six of its plants. The corporation
was ordered to cease alleged inter-
ference with union activities of it's
employees; to bargain collectively
with majority of its workers; to
reinstate strikers without discrimi-
nation and to withdraw support of
so-called company unions" in it's
lion, N. Y, and Middleton, Conn,
plants.
The labor board declared the cor
poration exhibited a callous, i'm
perturbable disregard of the rights
of its employees that is medieval in
its assumption of power over the
lives of men and shocking in it's
concept of the status of the modern
industrial worker"
1t said Remington-Rand officials
deliberately provoked disorders in
order to turn public sentiment
against the workers and "stood will
ing to sacrifice the lives of the men
whom it hired to break the strike as
well as those of the strikers"
Secretary of Labor Perkins al
ready had entered into this affair,
having summoned James H. Rand,
Jr., president of the company, to a
conference in her office. About the
same time John P. Frey, president
of the metal trades department of
the A. F. of L., protested against an
award of contract to the company
