We think fair summing up of
the general situation comes to this.
ID Rabid New Dealers whole.
heartedly support the proposal as
a necessary step to achieve the OBJ
jectives of the President, asserting
that a group of conservatives and
hostile justices are blocking the
expressed will of the American
people. (2) Other New Dealers,
who were inclined to hope that
regular processes would recon
stitute the Court, are reluctant to
approve such q drastic revamp-
ing of personnel for the approval
Of specific legislation. These vii
divide into two groups, with
most of them backing the Presi-
dent if and when a showdown de-
velops and some of them ready to
fight his proposal to the end. 90
0utspoken critics of all New Deal
Legislation who look to the Court
to protect from popular attack
what they have been unable to de-
fend in political combat. These
are the conservatives who revere
the Court as the last remaining
bulwark OF constitutional liberty
and look with horror upon any
move which might weaken their
last remaining citadel.

Labor Urged to
Join Three Point
Peace Program

WASHINGTON, April 26. U.P-
Colby M. Chester, president of the
National Association of Manufac-
turers, today called on labor and
industry to join in three point pro-
gram to build industrial prosperity
and peace.
Speaking before the 25th anniver-
sary meeting of the chamber of
commerce of the United States,
Chester asked labor management
cooperation and an acceptance by
unions of their responsibility; pay
ment of wages sufficient to sup
port mass purchasing power; and
creation of private jobs for those
on relief.
He requested that:
|. Organized labor cooperate with
management in distributing "a fair
division of the industrial pie" and
exemplify "a consciousness OF its
responsibilities"
2. Businessmen realize "the sue
cess of the American system of
large scale production and diStribu-
tion from now on depends largely
upon a consuming public having a
purchasing power which grows
steadily
3. Industry should work toward
goal of making jobs in private in
dustry SO attractive and accessible
that thousands now on relief will
work in industry and in the vari-
GUS businesses and services"

BEST VIOLINS
HELDPARTLY
DUE TO LUCK

VINCENNES, Ind. CUP)-Disput-
ing a popular fancy that age alone
makes a first-class violin, Sam and
Charlie Hatton, who pursue the
manufacture of musical instruments
as hobby, explain superior instru-
ments are the result of fine ma
terial and workmanship and "are
often a matter of luck"
The elderly Hatton brothers have
engaged in making musical instru-
ments of unusual design and pat
tern for many years in their little
shop here.
Among the instruments turned
out by the brothers is violin the
front and sides of which are COM
posed of $50 pieces Of linn and
black walnut, inlaid in an attrac-
tive and intricate pattern.
Luck Plays Part
Superior instruments, especially
yiolins, are often the result of luck, y
both have decided after many years
of tinkering with the delicate arti-
cleS," they asserted.
'At the best, violin is as tenn
peramental as the weather. Some
are of good tone on three strings
and in one or more positions. and
may be decidedly inferior in other
respects"
Generally, however, good vio-
Inns are obtained through superior
workmanship and material. An in
ferior violin is none the better for
age"
The brothers have shared many
interesting experiences as result of
their hobby.
Old ViOlins Plentiful
There are many old violins about
Vincennes," Sam said. Some of
them have been in the same family
for more than 100 years.
81 once repaired a violin for
fellow who later refused to pay
for the work. Will the violin cover
the bill?' he asked. I told him that
it would Then keep it,, he said. l
later sold that instrument for $192.
Recently I repaired a violin for
which the customer said he had
paid ST. The instrument was easily
worth 5000.
Persons often come to us with
models of Stradivarius, Amati and
Stainer violins, which they think
are the originals. In most cases it
is useless to tell them that the label
has been faxed and in all proba-
bility the instrument was sold for
about $3.50 wholesale"
