Well, leave it to Harold Gray to
pop up with fishin' yarn right off
the bat. When the May one trout
season opened, Harold and Pete
Michels were among the openers.
Which is not the real story at all.
But it is in the fact that Harold
had ordered a creel-which is a
nice fancy name trout fishermen
have attached to a fish basket that
mother wouldn't use for her darn
ing cotton. And the morning
that Harold left on the fishin' ex-
cursion, only a few hours later
came the creel. And he'll prob
ably not use the thing til next
year.
Shores of Sank Lake were
dotted with lot of preseason
anglers Sunday who seemed to
know better than do that you
can fish bullheadS-f that's
what they were fishing. ..
And the lads all getting the mot
orboat fever. So Capt. Freeman Par
sons boat is exceedingly busy and
popular. First off along came Hank
Thielen with a twin-cylinder job
that Is an oldie but has a purr like
kitten. His trial spin was a
great success. And so was
Glenn Steider's for that matter who
too sported twin job. He got the
fever when he saw Hank frantical-
ly trying to find the right kind of
grease for the propeller gears. .
And so was yours truly having fun
romping up and down the lake with
a hitler job. :.

key dinner. As 1 went about
the lake, I should have been at
a turkey dinner at the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. r. ". Plant.
For which I'm duly sorry since
I was not only hungry but had
been counting on that feed
since last fall-my eating
thumb was all polished. .
Mrs. Plant had promised the
football boys that If they beat
Alexandria in the football game
a dinner was theirs. They
played good enough ball
game, so gave it to them any
way even though 1t was a tie,"
she said. And so the promise
was made good. Sunday af-

that game, the coaches and 9TH
ers attended that dinner.
TOastmaster was Bill Parker
for the occasion. FIR. John Bet
tendOrf gave the boys a splen-

ables at the table was Dave
Hooper. Harvey pointed out
that any guy who forgets about
dinner invitation is either
not hungry or is crazy. :.

Training School Crisis

Once again the fate Of that peren-
NAL problem child of District well
fare institutions, the National Train
ing School for Girls, is in doubt. Last
year the very existence of this indis-
penSable establishment was threat
jned, AID only belated action by the
legislators averted the eviction from
the home Of. WayWard girls totally
unfit to be turned loose without
supervision. Now another emergency
confrtntS the institution as a result
OF action of the House and the Senate
in reducing drastically the proposed
budget for the ensuing year Al
though the Board Of Public Welfare
despite much close figuring, was un-
able to trim the estimated operating
cost for next year below SCI ,O8O, the
House, after a br!ef hearing, cut the
amount to $4,000 and the Senate,
ignoring appeals of District author
ltleS for q restoration of the cut,
reduced the appropriation still fur
ther to $4,000. Moreover. it has been
decreed that the cost per inmate of
running the home must be held to
$500
The House, in adopting it's round
figure of $4,000, provided that
$23,860 should be used to pay per-
sonnel and the remainder for main
tenance. 1t contemplated a staff
reduction of eight employees. The
Senate provided only $40, $40 for per-
sonnel, with a view to reducing the
staff by six more employes-a total
OF fourteen. Sensing the inevitable
although the bill is still in conference
the Board of Public Welfare has
already notified seven employees of
impending dismissal. The twenty
other employees must either accept a
salary reclaSsification to $1,000 per
annum-the lowest clerical grade-or
give way to new appointees willing to
take this minimum salary. In no
other way, apparently, can the home
keep within its limited appropriation.
The net effect of this reorganization
seemingly will be to change the char
acter OF the home from that of a
reform school, where the effort has
been to rehabilitate delinquent girls,
into little more than a custodial
institution-virtually a prison in fact.
The question now is whether the
saving which the public will gain in
dollars will Offset the threat to the
community of an inadequately
stated, drastically circumscribed
refuge for its derelict girls.

OF loyalty and moral integrity that
makes him fit to serve The purposes
and ideals of many nations have sus-
tanned severe changes Of late years and
national symbols express in new and
strange devices new concepts of gov
ernment
Over against these the flag of this
Republic remains unchanged and that
for which it stands has the reverent
devotion of its people In this it may
render great service in stabilizing ma
tions uncertain Of their course. We have
been admonished repeatedly of late that
democracy and religion are vitally relat-
ed and that Government is maintained,
not alone by the consent of the governed,
but by the strong religious principles of
the people The State may make laws,
adopt flag as symbol and seek the
general good of its citizens, but if it ne
glect to maintain the moral character Of
its people, its laws and flag do not give to
1t the guarantee of permanence.
The rule unfailingly observed by the
Navy of giving the symbol of the Chris
tian faith the Cross, the place of pre-
emlnence when divine service is held on
a ship of the fleet, raising it above the
Stars and Stripes, is consistent with our
avoWed faith that religion is fumda-
mental and secures to us our most treas
ured possessions. In our too great haste
let us not forget to inculcate in the
minds of all our citizens, especially those
from foreign parts who seek to find peace
and freedom within our confines, that our
national symbols represent national
ideals and that they call for loyalty and
devotion to all that America stands for.

Laws on Labor

Recent enactments Of the Pennsyi-
vania and Michigan Legislatures, to-
gether with comparable proposals
pending before other State laWmak-
Ing bodies. probably may be consid-
cred fair preview of what is to
come in the way of labor relations
legislation in the next few years.
Through most of its history labor
has looked with extreme skepticism
upon efforts to influence labor rela-
tions through the compulsion of law
With a measure of justification it
feared that statutory control might
too easily become an instrument for
restricting the free exercise of labor's
fundamental rights Of organization
and collective bargaining.
In recent years labor abandoned
this traditional position, in part at
least, to support both Federal and
State laws clearly designed to aug
ment its privileges, in some respects
quite patiently throwing the weight
Of Government into the scales for
labor and in others even taking over
the function of the unions in at
tempting to improve working stand
ards.
That there were two specific dan
gers in this trend was recognized by
many: First, that labor might abuse
these new privileges and, second,
that laws to stifle labor might be
drawn in the same pattern and with
the same ease as those to implement
labor. Both have come to pass, the
instances of abuse in the form of
indiscriminate strike action provid-
ing an obvious excuse for legislative
proposals which might destroy rather
than control organized labor.
The classification of such develop
ments as dangerous to labor does not
of course imply that existing labor
legislation can not be improved or
that some of the pending State
statutes may not contain desirable
curatives for present labor re-
lations practices. Each proposal
should be examined and appraised,
however, with the objective of seek
ing solution fair to all those affect
ed, including the public, rather than
simply replacing an unbalance in
one direction with comparable un-
balance in the other.
Fundamental merit is found, for
instance, in the Michigan proposal
for coolingoff period after a deci-
sion Is made to strike. Imposition
on both employers and employees of a
strict status quo requirement during
such period doubtless would lead in
many cases to renewed negotiations
and amicable settlement.
Both laws also contain provisions
permitting employers to petition
State Boards for certification of
unions seeking collective bargaining
recognition and prohibitions against
coercive tactics by labor organiza-
tions.
