Final Figures On Enrolment
 Expected Soon
Reports Current Crosby Has Suffered Excep-
 tiOnal Decline

Local teachres and parents of pupils are looking forward to the final release of registration figures at Crosby and Wilby high schools at the end of this month with great interest, 1t was learned by The Democrat today, for there are per- sistent rUmors being circulated that these final tabulations will show a startling gap in regard to the pupil load.
 The first temporary" figures of the year, released at the meeting of the board of education on Septem- Der 13, caused considerable com- ment because 1t was believed that Leavenworth would show a much higher registration at the time. Leavenworth, according to the first figures had an increase of only 76. At the present time 1t is almost positive that the final registration will be around 1,250.
 No Official Figures
 It was also considered somewhat mysterious at the time when no actual figures were released in con- nection with the decrease at Crosby SO 1t has been learned during the past week.
 If the anticipated increase at the technical school and the decrease ct Crosby follow in the expected manner 1t may mean some may ob- ject strenuously to the situation. It wil, mean that some 1,200 or more pupils will being handled by be- tween 40 and 45 teachers at Leav- enworth High school and that ap- proximately 1000 pupils at Crosby will be taken care of by about 60 teachers. The difference in the teacher load, if this works out, will be obvious. For every one teacher at Crosby there will be about 20 pupils and for every one at Leav- enworth there will be 30. In addi- tion to this the shop classes in carpentry, electrical work, machine shop and the like at the technical school may be greatly overstocked with pupils.

DR. WALSH WILL
 HAVE GOVT JOB

Cambridge, Mass, Sept. 2l-(UP) --Dr. J. Raymond Walsh, one of two liberal Harvard professors whose "two-year dismissal notices" brought protests from students and alumni, has resigned as an economics in- structor and probably will take a government labor post.
 The resignation, offered last sum- mer, will be acted on at the fall meeting of Harvard Corporation about Oct. l..
 During the summer, 1t was learn ed, Dr. Walsh wrote Q book titled 70. I. o. Industrial Unionism Tn Action" which will be published soon.
 Professor Harold H. Burbank, economics department head, describ- ed pr. Walsh as "very able man" whom he hated" to have leave the department.
 Dr. Walsh and pr. Allen R. Sweezy, also an economies inStruc- tor, were given their "two-year dis missal notices" three months ago. Though university officials insisted the notices were on academic grounds. gyrnpathizers .attxibuted the action to the pair's ieadership in the Cambridge Union of University teachers ana other liberal move ilients. sn M

By gollyi That doesn't leave much for the salaries of the In- dependent Democrats" exclaimed the reporter. T believe I've got something there. The Independ- ent Democrats would have to pay themselves what they say they're worth out of the appropriations generally made for the schools, or the police, or the fire depart ment. But where would the Re- publicans come in, if at all?"
 Combine Forces
 "It,s cruel, cruer, thought the reporter as he turned away from the Press club, deciding that the afternoon might be a better time and an hour more likely to bring out the Republican vote. Here you have an administration which has been in office for eight terms and has put the city on & business like basis and now come the Independent Democrats who didn't get jobs and they want to get in. So they gather few Re- publicans and point out that the combined vote of their group and the Republicans would mean that they could get the jobs the ad- ministration felt they were not entitled to have"
 I wonder what John F. Tobin thinks about when he sees J. Warren Upson. (More thoughts while strolling) And does Sena- tor Culhane take dinner with members of his Republican con- stituency night after night? How are Alderman Wilhelm and Reg istrar Taller getting along in their private campaigns, forced upon them after they were ignored by the Fusionists?
 Chances
 It was very tiring. this attempt ing to find Q man on the street who had some views with basis of constructive solution to the questions of the ballot. Merit system? Many againEt 1t. Fusion ists? Won't get out the Republi- can vote. Culhane? Has @ better chance running against Senator Lonergan in his true colors as a Democrat.
 But one problem bothered more than another. How are the Inde- pendent Democrats going to pay themselves salaries and take care of the Republicans if they don't raise the tax rate? Perhaps, just perhaps, thought the reporter, they will work for nothing and will use the city's income for the same purposes to which 1t has been devoted.
 But would that please the Re- publicans after sixteen years of watching the city hall from the street?
 "It's all up to Upson. Tobin and Culhane, I guess, what will hap pen after they get in," concluded the labor candidate. But what e hangover the Republicans are go- ing to have, if and when."

Alleged Fagin' .DeclaredGuilty In Local Trial
Court Imposes Fine of $25 on Each of Two
 Counts

Charged with being a "Fagin" whose purchase of stolen goods encouraged boys and young men to steal, Ma than Shulkin was fined $25 on two counts, and sentenced to six months in jail, the sen- tence suspended, today in common pleas court by Judge Edward J. Finn.
 Prosecutor William J. Larkin, Jr., told the court that Shulkin had been in court dozen times within the last fifteen years on charges ranging from violation of junk laws to receiving stolen goods. He ac- cused Shulkin of being menace to the community in that the de- fendant had bought copper and wire from boys who, the prosecutor al- legged, could find no other market for their loot.
 Herman J. WeiSman, appearing for Shulkin, pleaded for another chance for his client, remarking that the defendants poor health, which resulted in his being freed after other convictions, and his family's welfare made prison term an unfit disposition of the matter. Shulkin, he said, is the support of an ailing wife and blind son, 1t was said.

 COunseled Economy And Lost

secretariat. All politicians and lobbyists had to go through Louis and usually they didn't get through--certainly not unless they had something to offer.
 The death of Howe may or may not have been harmful to Roose- welt. Howe was always cautious bent only on promoting Roosevelt and keeping his place as the inti- mate companion. It is doubtful whether P. D. R. would ever have launched his court plan if Louis had been at his side.
 Helped MOley Down
 Howe presumably helped accom- plish Moley's loss of power, which waned very slowly after the latters change from the state to the justice department, but the actual Moley- Roosevelt break didn't come until early in the 1936 campaign year. AL ways before, Moley had been the first draft man," who under presi- dental directions had constructed the first model of each Roosevelt speech.
 Suddenly he discovered that pr.

 had been given that job. Moley
 then withdrew from the New Deal
 entirely.
 His last appearance in Washing ton was in a bitter attack on RooseYelt's pet court plan before the senate judiciary committee.
 Frankfurter's "B0ys"
 There were other early New Deal advisers. Prof. George Warren, ex- teacher of Henry Morgenthau, heav- fly influenced the administrations early gold policies after gentleman farmer Morgenthau became secre- tary of the treasury, and for & time Roosevelt was sold on Warren'S commodity dollar"
 Felix Frankfurter who had fur lished legal brain trusters to the Hoover administration, big buSi- ness men and to Justices Holmes and Brandeis, was another impor- tant early Influence. His "boys" from Harvard Law school were and still are numerous within the New Deal, most important among them Tom Corcoran and Ben Cohen.
 Frankfurter worked out many early New Deal policies and still keeps in touch with New Deal proteges. He was offered the so- licitor- -generalship. But for two years he has been almost entirely out of the Washington picture, consciously withdrawing lest he embarrass Roosevelt, with whom he occasionally speaks by tele- phone.

Arizona congressman whose per- sonality and grasp of fiscal affairs had made him a Roosevelt favor ite by the summer of 1882.
 Douglas made hard fight against the New Deal spending policy and lost. He believed the situation would correct itself if there were genuine successful efforts toward budget-balancing. He held to the old theory that the capitalist system had certain self corrective forces which would work if much of the existing debt were wiped out. Politics, however, said more debt couldn't be wiped out.
 The spenders won and what the interesting results of the Douglas theory under 1933-34 conditions would have been, no ono knows. But 1t was the habit of Douglas in the months before he quit to keep saying:

 Meanwhile, Louis Howe was hv- ing in the White House, . factor of great weight with Roosevelt. Gnomelike, he had been constant ly at Roosevelt's side through the later's long siege of infantile paralysis. He was terribly jealous of all other presidential intimates. But he was expert at seeming to promise without actually doing so and he kept the brakes on Ro0se- welt, who is often impulsive.
