Why the opposition forces are

Such an adjournment may be
aiken, but at the moment there is

the one holding that the Roose-

while all hands go home, and the
other insisting that it he driven
through.

old his strategistS and heutenantS
a few hours after Joe Robinson
was found dead, the compromise
court plan which the Senate hSd
been debating, a government re-
organization act and wage-hour
law are still on the must list.
THE one thing most likely to
l. block Supreme Court and other
legislation this summer is a proc
ess which insiders in each camp
speak of as throwing Justice
sutherland to the wolves" This
means that Justice George Suth-
erIand, his fellow justices and
their congressional defenders may
decide that it's worthwhile for
Sutherland to resign. Because if
Sutherland did quit, following in
the wake of Justice Van Devanter,
Congress almost certainly would
insist on going home for keeps.
But the White House is send
ing private threats that il will hold
Congress up to Scorn if il tries to
run out without passing the final
triple-pointed must program.

The Charlotte Observer, scrutinizing
names of citizens it is suggested might be
acceptable to President Roosevelt as ap-
pointees to the Supreme Court, says the
list reads like the names of State College

We quote The Observer disclaiming, as
we do, any intention to fling criticism at
the fine old North Carolina names OF State

The Shelby Star discusses what it calls
the ''unfairness" of certain North Carolina
laws, and thus expresses its opinion OF the
labor act Of the last Legislature:
Another instance Of unfairness on the part Of
the state law IS the hardship it imposes on news
papers using carrier boys for the delivery Of
papers. Before BOY legally qualify as a
carrier, four different blanks have to be filed
out, one by the employee, another by the family
physician. another by the parent or guardian,
and another by the welfare department.. All Of
this red tape is discouraging and disparaging to
both the boy and the publisher. When boy
wants TO earn few dollars week by working
after school at Il wholesome, helpful job and Is
confronted with such disgusting red tape and
restrictions, ue wonder what sort OF opinion the
modern American youth has of the gentlemen
who wrote the laws TO hinder and restrain him.
Let Us hope that the practical. sensible boy
hood OF today viii grow up TO al the legislative
halls and correct the unsound, unfair and mi
practical laws that clutter our books.
The same regulations applying to news
paper carriers are applicable to nearly
every kind of employment known in North
Carolina, and to all boys under 1S years OF
age The law does not make it impossible
for a boy to work in North Carolina, but it
does absolutely close to him number Of
lines of employment and makes it mighty
troublesome for both boy and employer in
any other line of employment.
We consider, as The Shelby Star evident
ly does, that the North Carolina labor law
is radical in its provisions; that it is IN
reasonable and unfair to the boys of the
State and to the States employers.
North Carolina, like every other govern
ment in the history of the world that has
undertaken to regulate in detail the pri-
yate affairs of citizens in the realm Of their
natural rights, is plunging ahead and lay
ing up trouble for the future In this case
and others, the State is swinging the bear.
u can't turn loose; and the further it goes
the further it is compelled to go with regu-
lation, the enactment of laws, and all the
accompaniments of reorganization.
What practical benefits are secured for
q boy by having four cards filled out and
signed? This action does not change the
status of boys work, the conditions of
his employment, or bring him or his family
the smallest benefit. If he can work, I'M
der the law, he can work; if he cannot
work, under the law, he cannot work. That
is all there is to that.
The fact is that North Carolina, under
the impetus Of humanitarian chatter and
mushy sentimentality, has sold out the
youth of today. and perhaps of tomorrow,
to the isms which are the blight and curse
Of this nation.
We join with The Star and many sensi-
bic Americans in hoping that the expert
ences the young people are now having
with regulation, RECOMMENDATION and loss of
their inalienable rights, will cause them to
rise up when they become voters (if voting
lasts that long) and throw on the trash
dumps of the country all of that class of
politicians responsible for the present
plight of North Carolina and the nation.

was engaged
His greatest pride was in the
buoyant health he retained when
nearing the three score and ten
mark He was active although well
past sixty, in a wrestling school
and continued his daily exercises
as faithfully SIS though training for
an important match.
No Breakfast
One of his unusual training rules
was to avoid breakfast. AS a sub
stitute he had his wrestling pupils
take good mile run, followed by
two-mile walk. Plenty of vege-
tables and only moderate amounts
of meat were other diet rules in
his system.

tn4y will the league managers hold

self and was forced into retire
ment for the remainder of the sea-
son. That meant that the Wood
ward colt had to pass up the
Jockey Club Gold cup, a race of
two miles which many considered
at Granvilles mercy.
Back to Stud Farm
The injury was not a serious one
and seemingly did not cause the
colt any great distress. He showed
no signs of going lame, but his
owner decided not to risk perma-
nent injury. The colts ankles were
always inclined to fill up temper
arily after a hard race SO he was
retired to the Belair Farm outside
of Bowie, Md, where he was fired
and turned out.
From the standpoint of winnings,
Granville was the best thorough
bed of the year He led all Amer
lean thoroughbreds, regardless of
age, in the matter of prize WIN
nings with a total of $ll0,295 to
bring his lifetime earnings up to
Sill, 800 He won seven of eleven
starts this past season.
Brevity and Bold Venture have
,esumed training with an eye to
some of the rich stakes offered
in the future, but Granville's racing
days are over. The son of Gallant
Fox and Gravita has been leased
for a period of five years for stud
duty to Kenneth Gilpin and will
stand at his Kentmere Farm, near
Boyce, Va.
William Woodward had intended
racing Granville next season, but
changed his plans and gave into
the pleadings of Gilpin. The loss
of the great English sire, Teddy,
left Gilpin without a stallion of
the same high blood strain. Teddy
was the great grandsire of Gran
vile and Omaha, last years g.
year-old champion, as we'll as the
grandsire of Gallant Fox, sire of
both Granville and Omaha.

The jinx that started to dog the
heels of leading 3-year-olds of the
past season early in the spring did
not relent. Not one of the leaders
escaped.
Ned Reign was highly regarded
as Kentucky Derby prospect, but
the colt contracted shipping few
er on the journey to Churchill
Downs and never went to the post
in the classic, or for the rest of
the season, for that matter.
Bold Venture won the Kentucky
Derby and the Preakness but right
after that bowed a tendon and was
thrown out of ira ing for the rest
of the season. Thus very prom
Using career was halted just as it
bloSsomed out.
The biggest disappointment of
the season was Brevity. The Wild
Iener colt earned the Derby fav-
Iorite's rating in the winter books
after having burned up the track
in Miami. Brevity,s record breaking
performance in the Florida Derby
raised the hopes of all who favored
winter campaigning for 3-year -olds.
No colt that raced on the winter
tracks ever won the Kentucky Der
by. A Brevity victory in the Blue
Grass classic would have indicated
the judgment of winter racing sup
pcrters. The hopes and money OF
Florida horsemen rode on Brevity.
When Bold Venture caught Brew
ity in the dash down the home
stretch and then outgamed the
picture colt to the wire it was a
distinct shock to his many admir-
ers and supporters. But subsequent
events proved that Bold Ventures
victory was no fluke. Brevity never
regained winter form and after los
ing in the Withers mile was thrown

Derby, disappointed and fell by
the way. Mr.. Bones, another likely
looking colt, went wrong is the
Arlington classic and no more was
heard of him. Hollywood dropped
from the picture after the Detroit
Derby.
Granville started out as the hard
luck colt of the season. He lost his
rider at the very start of the Ken
lucky Derby, lost in the Wood
Memorial, the Preakness and the
Suburban Handicap by inches
After that the colt was well nigh
unbeatable. He won the Belmont,
