The parade in Clinton will leave the

will all be there from the prancing
horses to the screeching calliope.

The way in which the new men ac
quitted themselves in that practice
was a credit to them and to Coach
THcMillian. Playing most of the time
on the- offensive, the freshmen made
occasional flashes of brilliant playing
which carried, them down the Held
thrpugh the varsity defense. Running
plays met with litUe success against
the superior line ^ .the regulars,
though several nice gains were"made
by the frosh backs. The rkts reported
to an air attacjc whjch prpvedjJ>h suc
cessful that the freshmen werV^ble
to score on their big brothers. x
When the rats took the defensive
for a short time late in the practice,
several members distinguished them
selves. Moore, who backed up the first-
year line, tackled with accui^y and
determination that stopped several
varsity plays at the line ot scrimmage.
Atkinson’s work as a defensive end
was one of the high points of the prac
tice. He is a hard man to take out and
is a sure tackier. Coach ^cBlillian
seemed pleased with the work of hit
tackles, Evans and Boswell;

Just how ,far the United States

The pivot position of the freshmfn

^during the scrimmage with the var

is being hindered by a severe “Charlie

Euffet Supper Enjoyed
The Clinton Friendship association
held its regular meeting ^turday eve
ning at the Academy Street echool.
It is the, belief o( the best inform
ed officials dealing with foreign af
fairs here that a real war involving
more than one"European nation is in
the cards. Such a war would bring
about temporary ^prosperity, but would
also advance the date of the next de
pression.
Already enormous amounts of gold
are on the way from Europe'to Ameri
ca, sent over here partly for greater
security and partly for speculative
use in the event of war.
Uusinesa and Jobs
Sifting carefully ^all of the indica
tions in regard to business conditions
which come into Washington, and sep-
amtlng the political bunkum from the
facts, it is firmly believed here that
material business gains are being
made, regardless of the war question.
There are many signs of improvement.
A real residential construction boom
is in the making. This is inevitable
in view of the increase in the marriage
rate*and the biAh rate. New homes
are ihcrearingty in demand, and ac
tual re-enrployment is progreasing
faster than the usual government sta
tistics show.
There has been a recent awakening
on the part of the Administration
to the fact that there never has been
and never will be a time when there
is not a large num^r of persons un
employed. President Roosevelt re
marked the other day that we must
reconcile ourselves to a""considerable
percentage of permanent junemploy-
ment. ___x
The plan for a new census of unem
ployment has been dropped. Some ob
servers attribute this to fear that ac
tual figures would show that* there
has been no real reduction in the num
ber of unemployed as a result of the
Government’s work relief efforts. That
would be bad politically for the Ad
ministration. The hope now is that
within two or three years businessVill
have so far recovered as to take care
of all but the unemployables and the
elderly workers who are to be pension
ed. Only a few look for a really nor
mal business era before 1937.
Getting “Security’’ Pmid
Plans are shaping up for the al
lotment of emergency relief funds for
putting the Social SMurities act into
operation. The appropriation for this
old-age pension, unemployment insu-
.rance, child healthy protection plan
was included in the Third Deficiency
bill, which was killed by the late Sen
ator Huey Long’s eleventh hour fili
buster.
The appropriation for enforcing the
potato-control amendment to the AAA
was alM included in that bill. Nobody
however, if trying, to get any emer
gencies fundv io put that into effect.
Secretary Wallace regards that as a
“hot potato” which he is very wHling
to drop.
The project of putting a quota <m
potato-growing and sendiiHK farmers
to jail if they violate any of the rigid
restrictions of the law, is likely to
