' ALninistration is on much firmer ground since the- retirement of two Conservative Supreme Court Justice! and their replacement -with men of . the same political philosophy. While the President, in his. battle, against - what he considers economic privilege, , has been able to Win . elections . by - enormous majorities, his program has , been successfully resisted in the . Courts ' because his opponents . felt that the five Conservative - justices would stop the Newt Deal even when the ballot box failed, q O , . , , . The recent elevation of Stanley Reed to the High Tribunal ends the domination, of the Conservative group . and is a shift in the balance of gov ernmental power which is far-reach- , ing. ' Consequently, -business men now realise ' that they must make terms with the President or else seek to thwart him by arraying Congress against him. This may be accora plished temporarily but, in the. long run, there can be little hope that the people of the country will turn con servative in their attitude toward high finance and big business. The President's trouble in the Court ' began with his early legislative measures, but since last February, when Mr. Roosevelt opened his attack . on the Supreme Court Conservatives, the opposition has lost one legal bat tle after another. Since the begin ning of the Court struesrle. there has .been consistent- Cort, .approval of New Deal laws 4n fact, legal victor ies of the Administration have been exactly one hundred per cent. When - tia f!niirt rfpclnrfH th Wncmer Labor Relations Act constitutional, approved the Social Security Act and refused to upse the Security and Exchange Act and the power phase of TVA and - PWA, it' was apparent that business had been completely defeated. Con sequently,'!, industrial and financial ; leaders have .the alternative of ad , justing themselves and their opera tions to, the present situation or of seeking to defeat the Roosevelt pro gram at the polls. This latter course promises little or nothing in view of the trend shown in recent congres sional elections. The President last week continued his series of conferences with leading business men of the nation. As nearly as we can get it, the Chief Executive is sincerely anxious for business men to cooperate with the : Onvm-nment hut he doe not intend to abandon reforms which, he feels, have been endorsed by the voters of the ' country in overwhelming fashion. In other words, the extent of the co operation depends almost; entirely upon the willingness of the business men to accept basic reforms and to contribute to the settlement pf evils in business practice. v. . - This explains the President's state ment advocating: the abolition of all holding companies whether inths public utility -or other' '.fields, and whether , they are top or Intermediate ! concerns.-; appbee particularly Xo holding 'companies '' which , control banks and operating"; utilities; - The President asserted that holding com panies, with. $600,000,000 of .assets can controt 13,000,000,000 of utility capital: t He makes It xie&r that he will not agree to a modification of the "death sentence", requiring disso lution of almost -all but first degree utility - holding . companies, He r in sists, that there, is. very, little wind and water in stor' ' of the operating companies but that the holding com panies present a different picture. ', The President , feels that holding companies take advantage of their ' op)erating companies, telling of con versations with operating executives iX.t.t 'Xt.-1.'.'. .... '...J .

The twenty-two new ships to be ' con structed are in addition to the 74 now being built, making a total of 96 war vessels.

The new authorization pro gram for more ships and airplanes viii not necessarily call for large ap propriations during the coming fiscal year. The President's recommenda tions were expected early this month, but reports, apparently accurate, that Japan was constructing two 43,000 battleships of the same type, caused a delay in formulating the American plan. It is believed that, when the full American naval program is perfected, this country will undertake the con- struction of a navy sufficient to main tain its present position in the Paci fic, as compared with Japan, and john. -roan, HAIR IS Af : vniGUTiiitni, VSZHYVOn-OLl Wives, moHtert, f- -P-yVe often -lorceJ to y to x health to Ihetr men fo" f For women know that o heo!;hy hecj produces . handsome half!
