EUROPEAN DRIVING RULES
Nevada State JournaD

Allies who differ in the matter of driv-
ing their motor cars may encounter many
misunderstanding and mixups on the
highway to the front, even though their
diplomacy is working smoothly. Reports
from France indicate that the British
habit of driving on the left hand side of
the streets and the French right-hand
drive have caused no end of confusion,
and even a number of accidents. Theoret-
ically the British are supposed to observe
the rules of the road as they exist in
France and have been requested to change
their style of driving, but that cannot be
accomplished over night.
The right-hand drive is used in almost
all countries where automobiles are driv-
en-, save England and her dominions,
Canada observing the American custom
Agitation for a change in the British
style has been going on for years, for
many of the Britishers prefer the con-
tinental custom and would like to see it
become universal. These persons are los
ing no opportunity to agitate for change
in Britain, and it is thought likely the
war, rationing of gasoline and the virtual
disappearance of pleasure traffic from
the streets may operate to bring about
such change.

About 100000 young men and
women between the ages OF l6 and
25, who have completed all the
schooling they intend to take, are
scanning help wanted columns, sit
ting around employment offices,
lounging in corner drug stores, or
just lying around home. All of them
would be glad to work if there was
work to be done. Every year an
additional 100000 young people
leave the schools and sharpen the
competition for the few available
jobs.
The 100000 young folks in this
age class who are employed are not
entirely happy. According to re-
cent survey conducted by the Amer
lean Youth Commission, about 43
per cent have the feeling they're in
dead-end jobs. They feel they have
neither security nor much chance
for promotion.
The figures are depressing enough.
But what is even more gloomy is the
attitude of young people reflected
in a Y. M c. A. sample poll. In
New York City alone, 80 per cent of
all persons between the ages of Is
and "a are no longer sold on the old
American idea that ability is enough
to insure success. The day of Horatio
Alger has been left far behind.

Hints on Etiquette

The bridegroom's parents are in
vited to be honored guests at the
sons wedding, but their names
are never put on the invitations,
and they have little to do with the
average wedding except to be pre-
sent and to stand with the brides
parents at the reception, if there
is one.

JACKSONITES BACK
MURPHY FOR JUSTICE
Right now, a good part OF the
Murphy for justice talk in circu-
lation proceeds, not from hackers OF
Murphy but from hackers of jack
son.
Murphy is very happy where he
is. A reliable report says he was
offered a place ON the high court
two years ago and turned 1t down.
The understanding now is that he
will take the place if the President
urges him, but if he were left to
his own desires he would stay in the
Department of Justice.
Early in 1898 a Jackson -for-Pre-
sident boom was launched here in
mild way. New Dealers doomed him
for the New York gubernatorial no.
mination, figuring that that would
be an excellent stepping stone to the
presidency.
The plan fell through when Post
master General Farley and other
practical minded politicians decided
they needed Governor Lehman as
candidate again to oppose Republl-
can Dewey.
In that same winter of 1898 Jack
son was nominated to the post of
solicitor general During the debate
over his confirmation in the Senate,
as ardent q Roosevelt man as Sena-
tor Norris declared I'D be delighted
to see him (Jackson) in the White
House"
Is ARDENT
NEW DEALER
None of the Democrats now men
toned as men who could run for
the presidency with Roosevelt'S
blessing comes as close to fitting
simon-pure New Deol specifications
as does JaSkson.
Jackson was one of the original
advocates of the famous undistrib-
uted profits tax. He went down the
line vigorously for the bill to en-
large the Supreme Court when that
controversial measure was before
Congress.
If the New Dealers would like
to see him make the race, they
have not TO date made much head
way in converting practical poll
ticians or the general public to their
way of thinking.
If Jackson were attorney gen.
eral for six months preceding
the nominating convention their
task might be good deal easier
And this fact accounts for a good
deal of the talk about Murphy be-
ing the ideal man to replace the
late Justice Pierce Butler.

THUNDER ON SCREEN
AT NEW COLUMBIAN

Now the humble taxi driver comes
into his own as movie hero
The Lad who wheels you through
traffic at pace that leaves your heart
somewhere behind the last traffic
light, takes his place in the ranks OF
courageous adventures. He richly de-
serves it.
No less figure than Spencer Tracy
appears to symbolic the hero behind
the wheel Luise Rainier, thesloe-eyed
genius who was O-Lan, the Chinese
woman in "The Good Earth, +" ap-
pears as his immigrant wife.
"Big City" is a pretentious picture
i'm that it sets out to- paint canvas
Of life as it is in the whirling mael'
strom Of the crowded places. 1t is a
simple, beautiful thing because it ac'
composites exactly that. Tracy becom
es hackman. Unshaved, laconic and
suspicious of everything that walks on
two feet or rolls on four wheels, &c he
typifies the species which flourishef
in spite of hardship in every city
This is the picture that comes to the
Columbian Theatre in Grand Coulee
Sunday, opening a three day engage
ment.
