Mattew 5: : RECONSTRUCTION - No piece of legislation in years' has aroused so much in terest and hope throughout the country as the reconstruc tion finance corporation bill, which passed the senate by a vote of 63 to 8 and the house by a vote of S35 to 55. With exceptions that 'were unimportant, numerically and otherwise, both major parties supported the measure almost to a man. The opposition from the insurgents and other rebel elements was to the administration, which sponsored the bill, rather than to the bill itself. There were some differences between the bill passed by the senate and that which carried in the house, but they were quickly cleared up in conference, and now the bill has been approved by congress and has been signed by the president - Through this legislation it gress will open the way to , , , Uie xovtrumeiit-liiiaucfu fuijwiiiuuii fcvu w wviiv, w uc- tavmc been born at Fort Payne, Aa fulness will be manifested in many different ways.

Justice Holmes' resignation affords President Hoover an equal opportunity to distinguish himself and render a similar service to his country by naming a worthy successor to the nonagenerkm jurist The liberal movement in America lost its ablest champion when Justice Holmes retired never succeeded in liberaluing the conservative supreme court, but his vigorous dissenting opinions spoke for the liberal thought throughout the country.

Such statement usually are voiced either by the candidates themselves or by the party committee chairman. The latter happens to be Senator Fess of Ohio.

SPKAKS LIKE A CHAIRMAN It bectns to look as thouch rumors are true that Brown will take over the committee and engage tn round ing up convention delegates icr Hoover. A paragraph In his Hoover an nouncement seems to bear this out: "The only way President Hoover can be renominated Is to pet dele gates to the convention. There are about 20 or 30 different methods by which these delegates are selected and the president's friends will con form to these methods la the differ ent states.
