Harold Barker, speaker of
the Minnesota house of repre-
sentatives, recently lost 1915
worth of clothing when thieves
broke into his car while it was
parked on a Minneapolis street.
The loss of the clothing was a
severe loss in itself but to add
to the discontinue the Red
Lake Gazette chirps: "For gosh
sake, Harold, tell us how you
got that much clothing" Har-
old is a newspaper man which
deepens the mystery.

A lot of Democrats are tommyhaWk-
ing for the scalp of Joe Wolf. They
have weighed him in the balance and
found him Farmer-Labor.
Many lads idea of a grand New
Years eve is to pay ten dollars for the
privilege of banging a table with a
soup spoon in night club.
One reason we are glad that Christ
mas is over is that folks have quit
saying Christmas certainly sneaks up
on you, doesn't it?"
A week or so ago We saw an auto
driver going hellbent at 60 miles an
hour past the school. Someone should
give him seat on Edgar Bergan's

fit for military duty" Why
the hulabaloo is hard to under
stand. All these boys are sub
ject to draft in case of war and
the training received in the
camps will be of benefit in case
they are called. These young
men have built themselves up
in outdoor life and camp dis
cipline and are better able to
cope with military life through
this training. 1t is sincerely
hoped that no occasion will
arise to drag them into conflict
but the training received will
be of immense benefit in case
this should happen.

of the finny tribe are filled
with spawn in the winter
months and that to catch them
will waste millions. Then the
claim is being debated as to the
ACCESSIBILITY of the open deer
season this year with the state
ment that the conservation
commission only opened the
season because they were short
of money and not that the deer
were in danger of starving as
claimed.
Anyway the subject is re-
ceiving all kinds of attention
in the press of the state and
many writer's are using ream
after ream of paper discussing
the pros and cons of the mat
ter. The conservation COM
mission is the power that rules
and it is up to their judgment
to say what is what. If there
is damage done, the commits
sion is accountable and charged
with the responsibility. They
probably did what they
thought was best and will be
held accountable for their acts.
At that, everyone has a chance
to say what they think and are
doing it.

Someone, not so daffy as at
first might seem, has suggested
that in order to maintain peace
we should give away all our
islands, plus Alaska and our
foreign trade. Thus, if we did
not have something others
wanted, there would be no ex-
cuse for waging war. 1t has
also been suggested that we
throw into the grab basket sew
eral senators and a handful of
slightly used laws.

POSITIVE STATE
HELD NEED IN j. s.
Goal of People Must Be
Determined, Says
Prof. LaSki.

Further development of positive
state" is essential to the American
Nation and its democracy, Prof. Har-
old j Laski told large audience in
Constitution Hall last night as he de-
livered the first of two lectures on the
future of federalism in the United
States.
The direction in which such devel-
opment might tend will be discussed
by the English political student, ap-
pearing here as guest Of George
Washington University, tonight
Describing himself AS "a Socialist,
Laborte and an extreme left-Win2er,"
the visitor warned that the "doematic
mythology" of our constltutionalism
may prove its inadequaCy in the
epoch of reShaping which is now
under way not only in America but In
all federated governments Already,
he pointed out, the division Of pow
ers embodied in our Constitution and
the interpretations by the courts of
these powers have cut across the
functions of government.
Sees AwarenesS Arising.
As a condition of strife between
economic oliearchy and political de-
mocracy develops further. he said, so
does the necessity of Intervention by
government increase. And in these
conditions, he added, there must be
agreement on the great ends to which
a people are directing themselves and
on the powers of the government to
make itself positive state. Neither
exists at the present time in Amer
lea, he said although awareneSS of
the. problems of our society now exists
to greater degree than ever be-
fore.
From past condition wherein
great economic empires have exer-
clsed sovereignty which implicitly
challenged the sovereignty of the peo-
pie, Prof. Laski pointed out, there
has been occurring a SLOW erosion"
of the opportunities available to the
common man.
"Statistically measured" he con-
tlnued. the chances have been de-
Creasing of the lowly man finding
marshals baton in his knapsack."
Isolation Held Vain.
Up to 1929, he hazarded. America
enjoyed all the possibilities of expand
Ing capitalism. On that date. how
ever. the new epoch really began,
characterized in part by the obvious
need to solve the problem of dis
trlbution of potential productivity and
by the more clearly perceptible trans
formation of the Nation into a single
market rather than a group of sep
arate markets. Further, he said, this
latter development has enfolded Amer
lea in the international set-up to a
point where any thought of isolation
ism is merely Utopian.
The speaker drew his greatest ap-
plause when he remarked that Amer
lea and Soviet Russia offer the most
to mankind.
Asked if Capitalization of power,
such as he indicated must exist in
the essential positive state. is not
anti-democratic, Prof. Laski insisted
that it need not be so.
The battle of American and Eng
lish democracy, he added, is being
fought in one phase by the Loyalists

Timely in its theme, entertaining in its presentation, refreshing in its adult characterization, "Woman Against Woman" playing at the Loew Poli theater, offers both tell ing and amusing sidelights on the perennial divorce problem.
 A picturization of Margaret Gull kin Earnings national magazine story, Enemy Territory" the film relates the story of a husband, Her bert Marshall, who takes his second wife, Virginia Bruce, to his home town where his first wife, Mary As- tor, and child, Juanita Quigley still live. In the hands of this skilled trio of leads the story is deftly woven, with Marshall drawing a compelling portrait of the husband who finds the happiness of his sec- ond marriage threatened with dis aster. Miss Bruce, as the second wife who has the courage to see the problem through, shows herself an increasingly fine actress. Miss Astor, in an unsympathetic role, is equally effective, the two feminine leads presenting vivid contrasts in both Appearance and character.
 Supporting roles fall into host of capable hands, none better than Quigley, the child who adds the keenest problem to be solved. Janet Beecher as Marshall's mother, Mar jorie Rambeau as the hearty and sensible senator's wife, Zeffle Til- bury as Miss Bruce's dragon" of . grandmother, Sarah Padden as the nurse and Betty Ross Clarke as the town gossip all add breeziness, charm and color.
