"See you at the Garden" already
is being heard among the dog show
fraternity, which means that New
York's and the country's biggest in
door event, which is scheduled for
February 13, IA and IS, is upper
most in the minds of those who
make the rounds. The Westminster
Kennel Club, this year as last, is
limiting the entry to approximately
5000 dogs, which is all that the
Madison Square Garden comfortably
can accommodate. All entries which
arrive on the day the 3,0OOth one
is received will be accepted, but none
will thereafter.
This year, as always, there will
be a number of added features.
However, unlike those which may
be seen at many clubs. these all
will be in the nature of some sort
of pure-bred dog competition. There
will be no costume parades or ex-
hibitions of fireworks, which create
bedlam among the many dogs en-
tered for competition: there will be
no trick performances by mongrel
dogs.
There will be an obedience test
trial, limited to two picked teams
of six men and six women, re-
spectively.
These teams will be judged by
Josef Weber, the noted dog trainer,
and the winning team will receive
$35 and the losing team $25. The
competitors already have been select
ed and include some of the foremost
exhibitors in this field. It was found
necessary to limit the obedience
trials in this manner because of the
shortage Of time and space.
Another innovation will be the
sled dog contests, under the direc-
ton of Felix A. Lesor of Saranac,
N. Y. The teams will be judged on
show quality of the dogs, uniformity
and appointments, as well as on the
pulling power of the individual dogs
and the teams. This will be deter
mined by the use of a pulling ma
chine, such as is used in testing the
pulling power of horses. The dogs
handlers will be in sledwork cos
tunes.
Playing with statistics is one of
the major activities of the Ameri-
can Kennel Club. In q recent
survey made by that organization
they figured that a per cent Of the
dog-owning families Of the country

there would be changes in those he
had read, and there would be new
laws with new regulations.
We have heard much in late
years about government by men
rather than government by law
Well we have it in this country in a
big way. It is not as bad, of course
as in the case Of Hitler or Mussolini
or Stain. When those brothers want
to change a law, they change it by
decree. They may go through the
formality Of q ratification" by q
set of stooges some time, but the
Stooges were selected as yes-men
long in advance.
Everyone has read of the Jewish
atrocities in Germany, but the mon
strocity, itself, overshadowed the
fact that during all of the purge
there was one decree-law after an
other being issued from Hitler's
headquarters. Each time somebody
found a loophole or the officials
discovered a previous decree did not
accomplish all that was desired, out
would pop new decree.
Congress Might Well Take
Notice of These Conditions
Having seen what can happen

when men. instead Of laws, consti-
tute the authority for government,
IL seems to me that congress might
well take notice. 1t has given birth
to children in the form of count
less regulations that are running
around the land like SO many thous-
and-legged monsters. Why, ! won
der, does not congress take a look at
what has sprung from its own fam
lily of laws. To grow facetious for a
moment: congress probably would
find trouble with its own ''in-laws,"
as well as private persons whose
mothers-in-law have been charac-
terized in story.
I have wondered many times
whether more than a very small
number Of farmers ever understood
the AAA contracts. and the regula-
tons to which those contracts re-
ferred. Examination OF the terms
gave me little inkling of how thor

Undue Power Is Given
Into Hands Of Bureaucf1tS

Congress, itself, Is to blame
many times for putting undue pow
er into the hands Of bureaucrats.
There is seldom any law passed by
congress that does not include an
executive agency, administering the
statute, to promulgate regulations
for carrying out the laws intent.
Those regulations, needless to say.
have the force and effect Of law, and
thus congress has delegated power
about which the individual repre-
sentatives and senators know MOTH
ing.
On the other hand, except for the
trait that I have been discussing
one so boldly evident in Mr.. Arm
old-those regulations could be
drawn in nearly every instance to
give individuals all of the freedom
needed to transact business, In
stead Of piling one restriction upon
another. doubt very much that
any one person in the whole United
States knows all Of the restrictions
the dos and the don'ts-that COM
prise the law Of the nation today.
No one knows them because it would
require an entire lifetime of an in
dividual to obtain them and read
them. And before he had read very
many, there would be new crop;

oughly the signers were bound. al
though, as AAA officials often ex-
planned, the provisions were plainly
printed. The fact, however, never
has altered a really bad situation.
None OF us can be expert in all
things. We, therefore, are more or
less at the mercy OF the individuals
who are clothed with the power OF
office and who relegate TO them
selves additional power because they
know those against whom II Is
used frequently have no UNDER
standing of the whole situation.
Thus, reiterate, 1t appears 10 be
time for congress to review its own
work and make government under
standable.

T In the first place, I can not be-
lieve there is any legal right in our
laws for the consent decree. It has
been used a long time, but it seems
to me that it contains very danger
Gus elements. It ought to be stop
ped and there ought be no indict-

tention to carry the battle clear
through. There ought to be either
a conviction or an acquittal. :.
Arnold Assumes Dictati0n
Over Auto Advertising
In the case of the motor manu-
facturers. however, Mr.. Arnold's de-
termination to make things over
has come to the surface to an even
greater extent than heretofore, even
with Mr.. Arnold. For Mr.. Arnold
has decided that. the motor COM
panies have been spending too much
money for advertising their prod
ucts. In spending so much money
for advertising, Mr.. Arnold opines
that. they are thereby creating 8
monopoly. In other words, as a
trust buster, Mr.. Arnold figures that
he can become boss of the normal
practice of business advertising. It
can be construed no other way.
I have looked into the question
from number of angles and have
consulted with numerous individ-
ualS who know their law better than
know mine. Nowhere have found
any power vested in the depart
ment of justice for control of adver-
Using. I should regret 1t very much
if congress ever had passed q law
giving authority for any agency of
government to do more than prose-
cute advertisers who use dishonest
statements. That is to say, If the
advertising statements are crooked,
punishment ought to follow. If the
advertising is honest, what bust
ness has government horning into
it?
The reason I feel 50 keenly about
this sort Of thing Is that 1t Is q
trend in government, from the ma
tional government on down the line,
to do things directly-to do many
things without genuine authority Of
law. We as q nation always have
supported the theory Of rule by the
majority. We have legislative bod
ies-the congress. the state assem-
blies, the city councils and so on
to enact the will of the majority
into law. But in the motor case and
in dozens of others which could be
mentioned, the public official with
the boss" complex takes things
into his own hands and usually gets
away with his perfidy.

tend such games regularly. The
chance Of actually seeing a game
after dinner instead of reading
about it in the box scores should
prove attractive. All things being
equal, the average man would just
as soon see Joe Di Maggie or Gabby
Hartnett in action on ball field as
he would watch Clark Gable or
william Powell ON the screen. Night
baseball, however, would not be
a serious competitor to the movies,
because only q dozen games at
most would be scheduled during a

A number of big league magnates
and managers look with rather sour
eyes on night baseball. Bill Terry,

none of it. But with the demon
stration of proved success in two
big league cities, it seems inev-
liable that it will be adopted gen.

included in the 1888 roster. They
were Gabby Hartnett of the Cubs,
