Among the good ideas that came
out OF the Chamber of Commerce
Monday night was the lighting OF
our Center street and Third street.
Lamp posts can be secured at Bill
Iings at a bargain price and IN
stalled reasonably, which would
mean a savings to taxpayers. We
hope that action is taken soon on
the lighting project. And speaking
of lighting, imagine how beautiful
the new courthouse would look
with a row of lamp posts along the
south and west sides.
One way to get the ball started
rolling on this lighting project is
to have a petition circulated and
signed by the property oWners
stating that they are in favor OF
the proposition.
Many have expressed their desire
to have the streets more brilliantly
lighted. Perhaps some civic minded
citizen will start that petition ere
too long a time.

A careful bit of behind-the-
scene strategy has come to light in
connection with the increasing
talk of an early adjournment of
Congress. And if the strategists do
their work effectively, the wage
hour bill hopes of the administra-
ton may not-as had been expect
ed-expire in a Congressional pig
con hole.
Instead, the stage is being set
for a pressure" passage of such
a bill in an eleventh hour fight.
The strategy began when it re-

ious to get back home as early as
possible-what with most of them
facing hard campaigns before

Briefly, the strategists are adj
vancing along this line:
l. Let Congress proceed with
the plan to clear the slate of all
current measures in the belief adj
journment can then be effected.
2. Limit additional presidential
message and requests to recon-
mendations for studies of prob
lens for which legislation will be
sought next year.
3. When the slate in both Hous-
es is clean of all other matters and
adjournment is near, rush a wage
hour bill into the House floor and
throw all hands to work to drive
it through.
The plan is to have the wage
hour measure so "innocently"
drafted that the House won't hes
itate to pass it. Then a confer
ence committee would be appoint
ed. and given only a brief time to
reconcile the innocent" House
bill and the more drastic wage
bill passed a year ago by the Sen
ate.
The result would be-and this
is the final catch-that the con
ference committee would almost
certainly reconcile the bills to con-
form with the original wage-hour
regulations proposed by the ad-
ministration.

One of the outstanding lessons
the world has learned from dlcta-
torshipS is this: No dictator can
force himself into power and stay
there so long as his people retain
free speech and free, uncensored
newspapers. :.
Hitler, Mussolini, Stain, and all
Of their lesser imitators learned
that. But now Hitler, fresh from
his Austrian conquest, is irritated
by comments of newspapers IN
free countries. So he proposes IN
ternational treaties establishing
official government control of all
newspapers. What he means is
this: You see that your news
papers say only nice things about
me and I'll do the same for you
Up speaks DR.. Carl w. Acker-
man, Dean of the Pulitzer School
of Journalism at Columbia Uni
versity, a lifelong student of news
papers and their problems and du-
ties. After pointing out that such
a treaty would require amendment
of the American Constitution, he
adds:
Il consider these developments
50 ominous that I think the for
eign press policy of the German
government should be fully K
planned and earnestly studied. If
governmental control of the print
ed and spoken word is a require
ment of peace with Germany, we
should know the conditions now
and not later
Hitler's plan doubtless suits
some Americans. A United States
Senator said in a radio speech the
other day that SO per cent of AM
erica's city newspapers are biased.
What he meant was that they did
not agree with him.

BONDS DEVELOP
IRREGULAR TREND
Some Rails and Utilities
Edge Up, but Others
Turn Down.
By the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, Oct. 29.-Price changes
were small and the trend uneven in
the bond market today.
Some utilities gained little ground
but others felt the pressure of selling.
The same was true in most other
groups, especially the rails, which have
held the spotlight in recent sessions as
result of a sustained upward drive
that has carried numerous popular
trading favoriteS in the priced
section to new highs for the year or
longer.
United States Governments barely
moved either way from Fridays close
and with the exception of jump up of
S14 points in Poland government rs
the foreign dollar list had little to
show for the session.
The Associated Press averages held

Final Prices Two Points

at New York.
BY the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, Oct. 29.-Cotton
moved narrowly today as trade and
foreign buying absorbed liquidation
and hedge selling. December ad-
vanced from 853 to 856 and closed
at 8.55, with final prices 2 POINTS net
higher to l point lower.
The market opened quietly with
orders evenly divided. Principal fea-
ture was evening up in December
where liquidation supplied trade de-
mand. Buying proved slightly more
insistent than the selling, however
and December advanced another point
into new high ground for the move
ment. General tightness of the spot
cotton situation was still the chief
sustaining influence.
