How to Have Really
Interesting Meetings.
Meetings should be scheduled for
time each week when every men,
ber can easily attend. Hold one
meeting Week-and make that one
meeting count for something. Plan
it carefully in advance.
Each meeting during a four week
period might easily be devoted to a
different theme. First, social and
personality problems-doing things
the right way, making the most of
yourselves socially. Discuss dates
and boys and the problems they
bring in friendly manner of give
and take Each girl should contrib
ute something to the informal dis
cussion each girl should learn
something.
Talk about clothes, makeup, and
hair dresses. Discuss the whole field
of personality improvement and per-
sonable good grooming. Review
magazine articles and books. Bring
up some of the points discussed in
this column from time to time
Turn the second meeting of each
month over to the Activities Com
mittee. Fully discuss future plans
and activities for the club-the
things you are going to do. or would
like to do-parties. school affairs,

We think that staging an informal

way to raise the popularity rating of

discussed at the first meeting of the

Entertaining Often

Entertaining often will make you

have many grand opportunities to
issue invitations to the boys you d

BILL REMAINS IN
 COMMITTEE
Senator's 5 Move to Bring Wholesale Measure
 Out Defeated

Efforts to have three important bills dealing with liquor control dis charged from the Committee on Ed ucation, Public Health and Morals failed today in the Senate.
 Included among the buried measures is Representative Harv- ey Smiths House bill No. 9, setting up a Territorial wholesaling system The bill was referred to in Senate argument today by Senator James Patterson as the key to all liquor bills which have been brought be- fore this Legislature"
 The Senate divided four to four on Senator Joe Hofman's motion to bring the Smith bill out of com mittee. Those voting to keep 1t safely under cover, at least for the time being, were Senators O. D. Cochran, c. H. LaBoyteaux, Victor c. Rivers and Norman R. Walker.
 Other Bills Held Up
 Senator Patterson's motion to dis lodge his own Senate bills Nos. 65 and 89, dealing with liquor regula- tions, met the same fate, being kept in committee by the same combina- tion of votes.
 Senator Cochran, Chairman of the committee in which the bills repose, said that the committee has been too busy with other matters to give proper consideration to the liquor measures.
 When Senator Patterson spoke at length in favor of the House Terri torial wholesaling bill, for which he put up much more vigorous fight than for his own measures, Senator Cochran sought to silence him by rising to a point of order that the Valdez solon should confine his re- marks to the motion to discharge the bill from committee. Senate President Walker overruled the Cochran protest.
 Wholesale Bill Championed
 The wholesaling bill would bring to the Territory hundreds of thou sands of dollars in revenue" Pat terson claimed, and would take out of the hands of those now controll- ing the liquor traffic in Alaska the powers which have led to what Pat terson termed abuses under the pre- sent system.
 "A good deal of the liquor legisla- tion being introduced is nothing but camouflage" to cover up faults in the present setup, Patterson declar- ed.
 Patterson's bills deal with control of licenses and regulations as to the furnishing of liquor dispensaries, etc. No 65 provides for a system of Territorial stores
 Club Liquor Bill Out
 One liquor measure which came out of committee today was Repre- sentative H. H. McCutcheon's subs titute for House bill No 6, providing for the issuance of club cocktail lic- enses. The Education Committee re- ported the bill without recommends tion, with two members signing a dissenting opinion urging that the

(By The Associated Press)

The end of the Spanish War ap- peared only a matter of hours to- day.
 The approach of peace in Spain came as Great Britain made a seemingly momentous decision as to the future of Palestine and a new flareup between Jews and Arabs in the Holy Land brought death to 26 and injuries to 49.
 Both Britain and France are set to recognize formally General Fran cisco Francos Nationals, who have become supreme in Spain, as her legal rulers.
 Circles close to the tottering Re- publican government said in Paris it's Premier Juan Negrin had ac- cepted an armistice tantamount to unconditional surrender of the last ne-fourth of Spain still under it's control.
 President Manuel Azana of the Government Spain was in the lit tie provincial French town of Col longes Sous Saleve. He left Spain's Paris embassy so Nationalist Am bassador could occupy it. His res ignation was believed to be already written
 United States Ambassador Joseph Kennedy told the British Govern ment' drastic restriction of Jewish immigration into Palestine < and abolition of the mandate over the Holy Land would have disastrous effect on public opinion in the United States"
 His assertion followed disclosure of a British scheme, submitted only in outline, for discussion to end Britain's mandate in Palestine, to restrict Jewish immigration there and to set up Palestine state with Jews as minority.

 Nine holes of golf would do the trick just as well, Dr. Calver added, but not eighteen holes. That would be too much for men who are mid dle-aged or older and who aren't used to such exercise.

Employees Have'No Right 10 Seize Any Plants
 of Employers
NlRB E HARD HIT BY
 OPINION HANDED DOWN
Tribunal Refuses fo Re- view Case of Men Con-
 vieted, Sentenced

WASHINGTON. Feb. 27. = The Supreme Court of the United States today condemned the action of em- ployees who seize their employers plant in a sitdown strike.
 The decision was read by Chief Justice Charles Evans Hughes who upheld the right of the Fansteel Metalurgical Corporation to dis charge employees who seized two key buildings in 1937 in sitdown strike.
 N. L. K. B. HIT
 This is the third major decision delivered against the National Lab- or Relations Board but the first im- portant defeat given the Board since the enactment of the Wagner Labor law in 1885. The Board had ordered the sitdowners to be reinstated but today's decision lets the case rest optional with the company.
 Chief Justice Hughes. in the deci- sion, asserted that employees have right to strike but they have no license to commit acts of violence or seize plants of employers"
 No Legal Rights
 The decision characterizes the seizure and retention of property as "high handed proceedings without the shadow of legal right"
 The court also refused to review the contempt of court conviction of 39 Fansteel employees. They were charged with violating the courts injunction restraining them from continuing sitdown strike and were given varying sentences.
 Associate Justices Reed and Black dissented in part in the decision in the Fansteel decision. Associate Jus- tice Stone concurred in part but As- sociate Justice Frankfurter did not participate.

 Every President, in his second term. says Ashurst, can expect such battle.
 The reasons are many" he says, and would take hours to summar- ize."
 Washington came to the Senate to defend an appointment and un- derwent such rigorous questioning that he left in high Virginia anger, and swore he never would visit the place again.
 Perhaps most tragic was the battle between President Garfield and the two New York Senators, Conkling and Platt. Garfield won the battle, says Senator Ashurst, but lost his

5QUABBLING WITH SENATE
 OLD PRESIDENTIAL CUSTOM
By PRESTON GROVER

WASHINGTON, Feb. 27-Nearly every President has to have good quarrel with the Senate-and just about every time he loses, sometimes tragically. Some of the exceptions are more tragic than the others.
 President Roosevelt is having his quarrel over the appointment of Floyd H. Roberts of Virginia as Judge of western district in Vir- ginia Senators Glass and Byrd of Virginia declared the President had made the appointment to embarrass them politically, so they relied on the age old Senate tradition of com blaming that it was to them both personally objectionable and obnox- ious. The Senate supported them eight to one by rejecting Roberts.
 The scuffle is not ended yet, of course, even though there has been a biting exchange of letters. The vacancy still exists When another appointment comes down Glass and Byrd will attack it again, if, as they expect, the appointment again is personally objectionable" to them.
 Senator Ashurt of Arizona, chair man of the Senate Judiciary Com- mittee, views the disputes philosoph- ically.
 "A large number of Presidents Washington, Jefferson Jackson, Tyler, Lincoln, Johnson, Cleveland, Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson-had their quarrels with the Senate, but quarrels between the President and the Senate, like the quarrels of the Medes and the Per- sians, admit of neither inquiry nor explanation"
