By Senator Wagner’s own declaration, the govern-

annual rentals of the dwellings it builds. On struc-
tures costing 81500 a room such as it was proposed
to erect in New York, a four-room apartment would
cost six thousand dollar* and would rent for six hun-
dred dollars a year or 160 a month. As Benatar Tyd-

DISGRACEFUL OR AMUSING
Explorer* of early days frequently brought back
stories of how impressed were the natives they found
who never before had seen white men and the every-
day equipment an explorer carries. The aborigines
would feel the texture of cloth, be astounded at
small mirrors and dog the footsteps of visitors who
were regarded as a kind of god.
Such actions were easily explained by the unciviliz-
ed state of the natives, but even in modem countries
there appear* to be a throwback of this same human
curiosity. Two weeks ago Robert Taylor, a Nebraska
boy who made good in the movies left a wake of pal.

Man About Manhattan
By dEOROE TUCKER
NEW YORK, August JI—Almost every newspaper
man has moment* when he is stunned by the absence
of familiar faces. You may think the same names
adorn the marquees and the headline* year after year,
but they don’t. People grow up, become famous, and
die. And when they do, others take their places so
quickly that the change is seldom noticed.
The names that filled the gossip columns a few
year* ago are, with negligible exceptions, almost whol-
ly gone if you don’t think thts is true. rummage
through your old theater programs, or skim through
the headlines of several years back, as we did. and
see how completely the scene has altered. For in-
stance, these excerpts from columns of a few year*
ago:

The fact appears to stand out that Roosevelt’s non-
chalant self-assurance led to the great mess which
was the first session of the 73th Congress. His friends
hope he has learned a lesson and his enemies hope
be hasn't.
Three factor* may have some bearing on this point:
1. The court fight, according to administration
plans, will continue in one form or another
2 Roosevelt still believes he has the support of
the "masses of the people.’' and that they support
what he calls his “miandate" and are willing to see
to it that he gets what he wants. Roosevelt fooled
himself in the court fight, however, when he sat back
to watt for his opponents “to hear from the country."
3. The administration will not help any anti-court
member in next years primaries and may go through
with present plans to knife such members. Farley
denied this in his Indianapolis speech to Young Dem-
ocrats. but Senator Guffey’s speech, in favor of knif-
ing. which brought him such a terrific lacing from
Senators Wheeler. Burke. O’Mahoney. Holt, and oth-
ers, was secretly applauded by most New Dealers

pound on 65 per cent of the base

year In order to collect the sub-
sidy. the cotton must be sold by
July 1 next Also, the grower must
agree to abide by the crop control
program expected to be in effect
for 1938, While the program is too
complicated to aid many of the
smaller farmers direct, it should
serve to bolster prices and to at
least provide some relief through
the subsidy. In order to borrow on
cotton, the staple must be stored
in approved warehouses and interest
of 4 per cent will be charged on
the loans Many of the small pro-
ea route to England: At every airport and at New
York before sailing, the movie idol was besieged on
an sides by women and autograph fans, all anxious
to shake hands, speak to or merely touch a rather
shy and certainly a bored young man.
it such conduct of otherwise rational people was
the result of a local temporary mob hysteria, it would
be excusable, but this hysteria seems to be interna-
tonal Even in staid London where Taylor is making
a film women blocked traffic around his hotel de-
manding that he appear on a small balcony, a tribute
usually paid only to royalty. Then when he flicked
away a cigaret, hundreks of women fought to se-
cure this souvenir at the time they saw the great
screen lover. _
Whether this characteristic of other wise civilized
people is disgraceful or only amusing depends en-
tlrely on individual viewpoints. Perhaps the psychol-
ogist* have an explanation for this phenomena.
SUGGESTS INDUSTRY ABSORB UNEMPLOYED
A plan which he believe* would enable industry to
abaorb 4,000,000 more workers in two years, and take
practically an the unemployed off the relief rolls was
broached by Ernest G. Draper, assistant secretary of
row: mere* in addressing an industrial relations con-
ference. He proposed that national business assocla-
ons, working through State and local associations
and ehamhora of commerce, find work for those who
■0 far have not been able to get employment
Business and industry already have absorbed the
vast majority at unemployed who are efficient, ex-
cept for the snail number who are temporarily out
of work, and this type of unemployment will exist
even in boom times On the other hand, there are
some workers who are not efficient and aren't want-
ed by employers. Thia group goes long periods with-
out work, and most jobs they secure are temporary.
But this group must nive and support famine*, and
they can t be allowed to starve
During the last live years, the government has
been taking care of these unfortunates, and now that
th* burden has dropped off tt would be much cheaper
in the long run for business and industry to provide
some kind of employment for these workers. Taking
them off the public payroll would help solve a vexing
pontical problem created by relief expenditures. Busi-
ness would get some direct benefits from their Invest-
menu instead of the work being of a public or semi-
public nature. The intermediate coat of government

wholesome or constructive way Per- the subject.

The ideas as outlined by the
Texan are being carried out. Far-
mers are holding meetings over the
country, including a series in this
county, for the purpose of discuss-
ing proposed provisions of legisla-
tion, and when Congress meets
again, a pretty fair cross-section
opinion direct from the farmer*
themselves should be available. It
is to be hoped that, through the
plan being carried out, It will be
possible for Congress quickly to
adopt a farm program that will
prove generally satisfactory; as sat-
isfactory as it will be possible to ef-
fect, with such wide diversity of
interests on the part of the farmers.
