Repressions.
A silence we must sometimes dread,
Because experience has taught,
Though you may keep a speech unsaid
You cannot keep thought unthought.
And thoughts, like fireworks, when they

Obey a rule that none can stop
The tighter they are wrapped at first
The louder they are going to pop.

personalities entered into the contest"
If the administration agrees to COM
promise on the court bill, there is a strong
feeling that it may pick the McCarran
amendment, which provides for two ad-
ditional justices of the Supreme Court.
Chairman Ashurst insists that sufficient
votes to put through the McCarran pro-
posal can be counted without difficulty.
The dyed-in-the-wool opponents of the
Presidents bill, however, are by no
means satisfied with the McCarran
amendment They say that "in prin-
ciple" the amendment is just as bad as
the Presidents plan, for it would be
packing" the court at this particular
juncture. There are Senators, however,
who would support the McCarran plan
while they would vote against that of the
President.
Harry Weinberger, New York attor-
ney, has written to Senator Ashurst op-
posing the court bill. "It is my conten-
tion," he says, "that it is the duty of all
three branches of the Government in
dividually to declare any law or pro-
posed law unconstitutional, If in their
opinion, it is. This is three horse
duty, but duty each horse must carry
alone when called on. In modern times,
especially since the New Deal, there has
been a passing of the buck to the Su-
preme Court and Congress has been
urged to pass laws even If in doubt of
their con&itutionality He called atten-
ton to the fact that many of the Presi-
dents have vetoed bills on the ground
they were unconstitutional; that George
Washington based his first veto OF bill
on constitutional grounds. Congress has
turned many bills down on the ground

made up the rest of our cargo.
Mr.. Brown asked if I'd like to

it. I politely declined.

left three quarts Of milk. At Frank

we left pint Of milk and half

doesn't care for milk.
We skipped the Rumanian

ICKES PROPOSES
SEWER TAX IN
ABATTOIR FIGHT
Tells Hazen of LevieS
In Other Cities

Renewing his fight to prevent
the Adolf Gobel Company from
constructing an aba oir in North
east Washington, Interior secre-
tary Ickes today furnished Com
missioner Melvin C. Hazen with
information to be used in pressing
for enactment of a bill taxing
heavy industries using the city'S
sewage-disposal plant.
In a letter to Commissioner
Hazen, the Secretary said:
'The Adolf Gobel Company
is proposing To use Tie sewage
disposal facilities Of the District
of Columbia for disposition of its
slaughter-house waste without
Compensation therefor"
He cited instances throughout
the country where municipalities
placed a tax on heavy industries
using the public sewage systems
He called attention to the bill in
troduced at the last session OF
Congress by Representative Ross
Collins Cd, Mississippi, which
would provide such a charge. The
bill was favorably reported by the
House District Committee and put
on the House calendar.
Ample precedent seems to
have been established for the
enactment of legislation which
would give the District some
measure of control over the ex-
tent to which the public sewers
are to be used by heavy indus
try.
I'm view of the introduction
Of the Collins bill in the last
Congress and the interest it
created, I am glad to forward
the above information to help
you determine the proper action
to be pursued with regard to
reconsideration of the Collins
measure"

Mr.. Brown said, that was no indi-

because she buys on special de.

During 1917, 1918 and 1919 he
managed the Pittsburgh Pirates of
the National Baseball League. To-
day he's brewing new strategy for the
Cleveland Rams Of the National pro
football loop.
Before and between those years
he was head football coach at Ore
