wok e! bona By JOHN M. GREENE will be with much regret that your commentator will see Justice George B. Berenbetz off the day that he leaves Hempstead because he will miss the enjoyable hours that he gets to spend with the Hempstead magistrate every now and then. It would be continue as a resident of Hempstead and a citizen of United States, but he seems sda and there doesn't appear to be much that anyone It is not impossible that the do about dissuading him. much nicer to have the ju determined t6 move into Can- ean judge will get a polite invitation from Washington to move to Canada since he has had the temerity to be quite critical of the goings on in the capitol as the goings on affect the supreme court. ile precedence doesn't seem to mean anything these days, it is a matter of record that a gen- teman down south made men- tion of the fact that if President Roosevelt was re-elected he would move out of the country. It is also a matter of record that the president, in his memorable speech in Madison Square Gar- den a couple of days before Maine and Vermont seceded, no- tified all who didn't like the way he was running things that they could pack up and get out of the country. 'The gentleman down south was included. -\ Therefore it looks like Judge Serenbetz stuck his chin out when he said, speaking of the present effort to change the com- plexion of the supreme court one way or another, \In the final analysis relative to the tamper- ing with the supreme court, the question is - 'shall this court, the last bulwark of our liberty, be tampered with and is it no longer free to interpret our con- stitution?\ When-that day comes, I want to move to Canade.\ It if presumed that the judge will want to move to Canada when it is possible for the su- preme court to be tampered with and when the supreme court no longer will be free to interpret the constitution. AT puzzles friends of the judge is the fact that he chose Canada as his destination when he only recently came back from a trip to the Caribbean- pronounced with the accent on either the second or the third syllable, according to the way it rolls off the tongue. His last trip was his second to the Caribbean and he enjoyed it much more than his first trip because he didn't have to spend any time in any of the hospitals this year where, when he made the trip with Mr. Kenneth B. Van de water, the sea-going editor of the Hempstead Sentinel, life was just one jaunt after another on the back of a donkey from hos- pital to hospital. He saw all of the very inter- esting things there are to see down that way and was very en- thuslastic in his descriptions of the life and habits of the natives. He also learned how to make swizzles, so It is said, although he has still got to prove that to the satisfaction of your com- mentator and others, who have got to know what a good swizzle tastes like through their ac- quaintance with Mr. Van de water. It would be much more pleas- ant, it seems, to hide away on the islands that dot the Carib- bean, in case there is tampering with the supreme court, than it would to trek to Canada. Or perhaps the judge has an eye to business and sees the Northwest Mounted as a much more effi- cient instrument in boosting the receipts of a court than the ma- tive cops, if any, of the Indies. WHATEVER the reason, the chances are that the judge will want to move in the not far distant future because there isn't ny reason to believe that con- gress will not bend its knee in suppliance to the president's wishes. Or is there? , The senate isn't giving in too graciously to the president's pro- gram of what has been called \packing\ the court. 'The boys in the upper house of congress are becomning quite wary as to how the people feel about the proposal and if the people of the rest of the nation feel like the residents of dear, old Nassau, the president's proposal isn't falling on receptive ears. Of course, Nassau is a strong Republican county and the bulk of the people who answered The Review-Star poll are Rapubli« cans, but there was a sprinkling of Democrats, too, who don't like the iden. Numbered «mong the senators who are opposed to the plan are some staunch Dam- cerats while others of the same political belief are bolding their tongues as to how thay fesl. Both sides-thote' willing to go slong with the president and those who kre not-are marking sims-and this armistice, if it can ite balled Shat. ti. right with mnlhdddmmmflw labor relations act. The idea is that if the supreme court decides that the act is not constitutional some sympathy will be aroused for the' presi- dent's proposal, that an adverse decision might cause a public protest. It is noticeable that the supreme court doesn't seem to be in any hurry to make the de- cision and it is also apparent that it is in something of a box. If it should decide that the Wag- ner labor relations act is consti- tutional some will be unkind enough to say that the verdict was made for the sake of ex- pediency. - However, it is all going to very interesting but, if only to keep Judge Serenbetz in Hemp- stead, your commentator must come out with a stand against the president's proposal. Life's Flashes Lasting Job KEY WEST, Fla -The charge against Franklin H. Gates and Troy P. Harmon was destruc- tion of trees. Six months at F rd labor, said Judge William V. Albury. Then he added: They must replace the trees and water them daily-until they reached maturity. Time Out KANSAS CITY -A federal court jury took 30 minutes but one ballot to convict Edson Walker, election judge, of at- tempt to suborn perjury in a vote fraud case. \What took you so long?\ a juror was asked. \Well he explained, \we got into an argument over who should be foreman, you see.\ Relief At Last LONGMONT, Colo. - The Boulder county welfare epart- ment disclosed this unique let- ter from a woman client: \We made application for re- lief but we. waited so -long that my husband had to go out and look for a job.

Paradoxical as it may seem to whom, for clearness sake? the hundred thousand old fogy doctors and the hundred million old fossil laymen who believe they contract actual iliness from exposure to cold fresh air.

She points out that proper treatment of the sinus complication generally stops that \cold habit.\ QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Please tell me something about quinine and how it acts on the body. Has it any effect on the liver? In which form is it best taken? Just what to ask for in drug-store. . . . (R. P.) Answer-You do not mention the purpose for which you intend to take quinine. To prevent malaria, in malarial districts, the daily dose is ten grains of quinine sulphate preferably taken in capsules. Many persons have found relief from stage fright, buck fever or examination anxiety by taking one grain of quinine sulphate in capsule, tablet or pill, three times a day, before or after meals, for a week or ten days before the ordeal. Can you suggest a spray to keep spinach fresh and crisp? What we get now looks so wilted. . . . (Mrs. M. E. S.) Answer-I regret I know of nothing that will brace up tired spinach. As long as it is to be cooked, what difference does it make? Is a hand vibrator used to massage the body also good to use on the heart? . . . (W. A. J.) Answer-I do not understand how it could be used on the heart? If you mean to apply it over the area of the heart, it is as good there as any- where else. tOopyrtg‘m, 1987, John F.

The pattern, in those years, was the pattern of the famous Police Gazette, spiced with a medium of \sophistication garnished with a dash of Arno, impregnated with a little more suggestiveness and a little less forthrightness than the gazette of blessed barber shop memory. There was a lull for a time, and the publication markets reeked with the rotting cadavers of infant magazines, which had not had enough of a life span to become really periodical. Came the current siege, then, of the vestpocket magazine, starting with the digests, devel- oping in the field of the \so- phisticated, general - purpose publication,\ and now, spread- ing like indigo in a clear pool, reaching to the further banks of the periodical puddle. One of the newest of the pock- et-sized magazines reached my desk this week. It is called Globe. Its sub-captions are \in- timate journal . . . travel . . . romance . . . adventure . . . . world interest.\ A young man of 29, living in St. Paul, is the moving force behind Globe. Possibly these labels evidence the optimism of youth, but more probably they were born of a much maturer farsightedness. The editors have provided them- selves with enough passageways for quick volte faces to allow even the use of a wild west story or an Oppenheim opus, if one should come their way in a mo- mont of dire need But I have no desire to cavil here. Comparing this miniature magozine with one of its recent prototvpes-in size and style of presentation, at any rate-which calls itself Coronet, I have a very favorable report to make of this first evidence of the work of the voun@ man from St. Paul. Unlike Coronet, which evi- dentlv has desisns on the hich nedesta) once nccunied by the late and sadly-limented Vanity Fair, Globe makes no attempt to dress its cheap processes of thoto and sketch reproduction in gaudy, inaccurately-nlaced colors to give the effect of lush richness, an effect which Cor- onet strives valorously, but vainly to achieve. Instead, there is encouraging evidence of an attempt to use the medium of the simole litho method for. its own just ends, and to do the most than can be done with this type of renro- duction. Instead of attempting the most difficult type of color presentation there is-the trans- posing of the colors of an il painting into cheap lithogranhy, one of Coronet's nitfalls-Globe has used, esbecially in its two central prints, a simple black line and terra cotta-wash effect, which gives the drama of sim- plicitv and the movement of primitive tint to these prints. The purpose of this magazine, of course, is entirely different from that of Coronet. As the editors explain in their preface, they have attempted the \deli- cate task of showing the world as it is.\ This aim, however, is not as forbidding as it sounds in excerpt, for this is no stuffy, stolid, phlegmatic National Geo- graphic. Men and women who can write the English language have been selected from many parts of the earth, and they have been asked merely to write of their own surroundings. As a result, we have at least 'he makings of literature, for it is conceded that the best of se- rious writing is done by the au- thor who goes no farther for his material than his own garden patch. There is an interesting and useful calendar of coming events, an international calen- dar telling of art salons, tennis tournaments, horse races, excur- slons to cod fisheries, masque balls and fantasies on the-Nile, listed in chronological order and with the places of occur- rence clearly shown. Among the writers are Wil- Ham Saroyan, Vincent Starrett, Louis Golding, L. A. G. Strong, Paul Morand, Ezra Pound and many noted others. The whole, though it smacks, at times, of the miasmic emana- tions of the Menckenian Mer- cury, nevertheless presents in effect of novelty, and there is much within these paper cov- ers which I have found anter- taining. Whether No. 2 will ever appear, and whether it will be worth reading, is a question which a month or more of time will answer. But this first issue, T find, is more worth reading than at least half, a bitter half, of the standard run-of-the-mill re- leases of book publishers which have crossed my path.

Bill Green himself and labor diplomat George Harrison are credited by insiders with having sold their fire-eating associates the idea of trying a more pa- cific approach. It isn't likely that the new strategy will lead to practical progress towards reconciliation of the warring factions of or- ganized labor. The breach is too deep and too bitter for that, as Green is well aware. But the real aim-according to informed sources-is to im- prove the A. F. of L's public re- lations position. Lewis has had Green and company at a disad- vantage in this respect practi- cally since the quarrel began. Now - thanks to the General Motors strike, Green has a real chance to turn the publicity ta- bles and is making the most of it. Also there is the angle of a possible rift within the Commit- tee for Industrial Organization itself.

Whereas Marshall broadened the central authority in political realms, Mr. Hughes appeared anxious to clothe Washington with control over new social and economic problems. His early new deal decisions clearly revealed this tendency. But the presiding Justice is not a fighter. Disliking dissents, he is essentially a compromiser. He frequently bores his colleagues at Saturday moon sessions with long arguments in favor of ju- dicial amiability. | But this time he could not effect a compromise -with himself or his fellows. Now he heads a body deeper in controversy than ever before. The Sumner Welles-R. Walton Moore rivalry for the under secretary vacancy has split the state department wide open. From the storage rooms under the eaves to the passport office in the basement officials have chosen sides for their respective favorites, and the opposing fac- tlons barely speak when they meet. Mr, Welles is the dashing brand of diplomat-able, agree- able, wealthy. He rides after the fox on his Maryland estate, entertains notables at his attrac- tive Georgetown home, fascl- nates foreigners, The elderly Mr. Moore offers a striking con- trast.

At least one fellow-jurist regards Mr. Hughes as a greater chief justice Legal companions are confident that Mr. Hughes cherished the ambition of duplicating Mar- shall's performance by extending the federal government's partment by his good friend and former colleague Mr. Hull. The Virginian lives quietly with his maiden sisters, spends his eve- ning hours with the Bible and classics, is as simple and as comfortable as an old shoe. F. D. R's choice is as difficult as it will be significant. . Mr. Welles leans toward the old- style type of professional dip- lomat; he was suspected of us- ing drastic methods in handling American affairs during the Cuban emergency. Certain in- terests erstwhile dominant down below favor him. Mr. Moore looks and acts like the \good neighbor\ the president chats about. Several recent samples of congressional agility have aroused suspicion in certain high circles that the legislators are scheming to filibuster im- portant presidential projects to a quiet death. The boys dem-« onstrated that they can step fast when the political spirit moves them.
