has named a joint committee of nine members each from the Senate and the House to consider President Roosevelt's mendations for the reorganization of the executive branch of the Federal Government. The naming of this committee means that the leaders of Congress are prepared to advance the proposal and to get it in shape for final enactment. This may not come until the close of the session, but it is fully expected that it will come. The President's plan may not be adopted in toto, but will be in its essential features, including that of two new cabinet posts. In renouncing the war guilt clause of the Versailles peace treaty, Chancellor Hitler has made 8 rather idle and futile gesture.

He cannot renounce Germany's admission of defeat in the war, for that is a fact, not merely a statement on paper. Nor can he repounce the fact that Germany's rulers, at the time of the war acknowledged responsibility and guilt of bringing it on. What the Chancellor does now is. to say that- the present Nazi government of Germany does not agree with the Kaiser's government of 1919. that Germany had any war guilt to acknowledge.

It is hard to see that it makes much difference now how Chancellor Hitler regards war guilt clause, since it is in the treaty and will stay there. President Roosevelt's address on Saturday night on the occasion of the Birthday Ball was in his usual gracious and happy manner. He included in his remarks a plea for flood relief, which just now is uppermost in the minds of the people of the nation. In addition to expressing his thanks to those who supported the Birthday Balls and helped to raise money for the Warm Springs Foundation, he gave an interesting summary of the work of combatting infantile paralysis. This work is making progress, he said, and of special value is the research carried on by the Foundation to determine the causes of the disease and to find means of cure.

There is every reason for hoping that the research workers will be successful, and that in future years infantile paralysis will be controlled like smallpox or typhoid today. Robert H. Jackson, Attorney General of the United States, recently made the statement in an address before the New York State Bar Association, while discussing the Supreme 10 Court, that it is not required by the Constitution that members of the Court be trained in the law, that is, that they be lawyers by practice and profession. As a mattert of fact we believe there have been no "laymen" on the Supreme Court at any time, whether or not they have a constitutional right to appointment. Mr.

Jackson's point in referring to the matter was that lawyers have monopolized the Court and made it an institution so surrounded by the technicalities and precedents of the law, that some administration some day might decide to reverse the and to pack the court with 100 men of other vocations. Great questions of social and economic import are not to be decided solely by judicial interpretation of points of law; to continue that practice will be to produce, an unhealthy situation for American democracy.

-A second hazard in Gov. George H. Earle's plans to start a $64,500,000 institutional: building program through validation of the State Authority Act was evidenced today in a letter from Harold L. Ickes, head the Public Works Administration. Ickes advised the Governor that Federal participation big construction programs could not be guaranteed because the PWA law expires June 30.

Last year the PWA tentatively approved a $64,532,729 program of institutional improvements sored by the State authority, creat ed by an act of assembly and later declared unconstitutional by the State Supreme Court. Earle brought the matter before the court for review last week anticipating the law would be validated and that PWA aid would still be available. The Governor said "if and when" the Supreme Court approved the State Authority Act he will go to Washington and endeavor to get some sort of Federal assistance in the execution of the building program.

Inflation The recent action of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors in ordering an increase of 33 per cent in the reserve requirements of member banks, may not be understood nor appreciated in all its technical meaning the general public. One thing, however, is clear, and that is that this action by the Federal Reserve is intended to put the brakes on any tendency to unwise inflation such as occurred in 1929. There has been some criticism of the action on the ground that it means increased interest rates and.

therefore, is a9 favor to the bankers, yet if, it ist intended to correct a situation that may lead to similar trouble as experienced in 1929, it will be generally agreed that it is a wise and timely move. To raise the reserve requirements takes that much money out of the speculative market. The new requirement does not become completely effective until next May, and when it does, the New York Times points out, the reserve requirements will be: for country banks, 14 per cent against demand deposits; for city banks, 20 per cent, and for central reserve city banks, 26 per cent. For all banks, reserves against time deposits, 6 per cent. Gov.

Murphy's Peace Efforts The efforts of Governor Murphs, of Michigan, to end the automobile strike in his state have been both energetic and well directed. That they have not succeeded is due to the inherent difficulties, of the situation and not. to. lack, of effort on the Governor's part. The labor organizations and the automobile companies are not engaged in an ordinary dispute over wages and working conditions.

Both sides realize that the chief issue is unionization, and on that they are determined not to give in. Governor Murphy has steadily maintained that his chief desire is to avoid bloodshed, and for that reason he has refused pleas from both sides for military protection. National Guard troops are being used but not in a way that would encourage either the strikers or the non to riot. Reports strikers indicate that efforts to reopen some of the plants have been suecessful and that men are returning to work in large numbers. On the other hand the sit-down strikers remain in possession of some of the plants.

There would seem to be a simple way of settling the issue, at least; officially. If an election were held by the workers under government supervision, to choose by majority vote the union or other. agency they want to represent them in negotiations, the whole matter would be simplified. The trouble is that neither to want to hold such an election. Asks $29,800 Grant For Carlisle Hospital Representative John A.
