Hubert Simmons, Jr. Tells
Lodge Groups Of
|. Document

Increased American interest in
the constitution as a result Of the
supreme court controversy must be
recorded as highly beneficial re-
percussion from the Roosevelt
congress battle, Hubert A. Sim
mons, Jr., Red Lodge attorney, told
a gathering of Masons, Eastern
Star, Rainbow girls and DeMolays
at constitutional sesquicentenn-
ial observance program at the Ma
sonic temple tonight.
John H. Honkala, worshipful
master of the local Masonic lodge,
presided.
"Beforeothe socalled court plan
placed the constitution vividly in
the limelight as a human, throbb-
ing document, the American public
was inclined towards a SNUG COM
placency-that the constitution
was essentially perfect. The result
was that the constitution was ac-
cepted but not generally under
Stood" Simmons declared.
The attorney eontrasted the
form of American government
with that of Germany, Italy, Rus
sia and China, nations which have
been challenging United States
smugness. He pointed out the con-
clusion that these nations, con-
undergoing change, have
governments inferior to that Of
this country.
Simmons discussed the supreme
court question, pro and con, from
a non-political angle. He also
probed the constitution as it af-
fects religious liberty and frater-
nal orders.
The Rainbow girls sang several
numbers to complete the program.

not signed by all the parents. This
matter was finally cleared up, but
the Powell, Wyo., game, scheduled
for last week, was cancelled be-
cause of infantile paralysis in the
Wyoming city.

nest, however, this week, and Hart
wig hopes to put up a good show
ing against the Billings outfit.

team will be picked are as follows:
