SILENT MONKS ENLARGE ABBEY London—<U.R>—ln the depths of Charnwood Forest in Leicestershire, silent white-robed monks are extending their Abbey to accommodate more members. They belong to a comtemplative order and the members observe strict silence. Many of them were once prominent in civilian life but voluntarily relinquished well-paid jobs and good social positions for their life of silentT. The Abbey was designed a him- , dred years ago by the famous French achitect Pugin who foresaw that the community of silent might grow so he left detailed plans for extension of the building. Theue monks now are working on : his plans. They get stones from ] their own quarries but have to import cement and bricks from the outside world which most of them have half forgotten. They work in shifts ot a dozen at a time and the clerk of works, himself a member of the order, gives them instructions by signs iir a type of gesture language peculiar to the order. They do the work with their own hands and expect to be finishod by the summer of 1937. The foundation of the extension was laid a year ago. A few members are allowed the use of speech to transact business for the community with the outer world. o Students Form Merit Club Toledo.— «J.R) — A merit system' has been started by a Libbey high j

The court found that regulation of mining was regulation of industry. as distinct from commerce, and that the federal government | had no such power. | Sen. Joseph F. Guffey, D., Ponu., i author of the act, and Sen. Robert IF. Wagner, D., New York, author of the labor relation act, possibly i doomed, under today’s decision, i heard the opinion read by the court. ‘‘All I can say," said Guffey regarding the defeat, "is that I have ■ never yet been thrown out of a ball game for arguing with the i umpire over a decision.’’ Seven questions were presented in the majority opinion as necessary for settlement. The questions are: I—The right of stockholders to bring suits testing the Guffey act. ( The court upheld tt. , I 2 — Whether the suits were j brought prematurely. The court . held it not constitutional. ( 3— Whether the 15% tax on coej ' sales fit the mine was a tnie tax I, or a penalty. The court held it a ' j penalty and not a real tax. 4— Whether congress had the power to attempt such control as the Guffey law sought to impose. The court held congress under the j constitution did not have this pow-1, | er. 5— Whether the labor provision 'of the acct could be upheld as regulation of interstate commerce. The conn held they could not be upheld and ruled mining was not interstate commerce. 6— Whether power was unlawfully delegated under the Guffey coal codes to establish working hours. The court held this delegation of power to be a violation of the fifth amendment of the constitution. 7— Whether the price fixing provision can stand alone if other! parts of the act are held uncon- ■ stitutional.

unconstitutional delegation of power by congress to the president invalidated the act. "In examining the emergency relief appropriation act of 1935 in the light, of the principle laid down in the decision in the Panama and Schechter cases," said the | court of appeals, "it appears that insofar as this case is concerned, there is clearly unconstitutional delegation of legislative power.” “There is nothing in the act directly prescribing the powers or duties of the president with respect to housing. Assuming that it may lie inferred from the act that the funds are to be used by the president, yet there is nothing requiring their use, either absolutely or in any specified condition or circumstance. "He is free to use them or not as he sees fit." The Local Project Os the four major departments of the resettlement administration only two are in operation in Adams county. These are the rural rehabilitation and the suburban and rural housing aud resettlement programs.

By MAURICE MERRYFIELD Inter national Illustrated New a Writer NEW YORK—With Broadway approaching the close of its most successful theater season In recent years, critics and others qualified to discuss tbo subject are giving vent to optimistic predictions about the future of the American drama. On numerous occasions during the ; past 15 years it has been thought that the legitimate theater was on Its way to an era of greater vitality and originality. But those hopes failed to materialize with the notable ! exception of Eugene O'Neill who towered above his contemporaries ■ during the decadent post-war era. I Today there seems to be a sounder basis for believing that the American drama la on Its way to greater things. Among our younger playwrights such as Irwin Sbaw, whose one-act indictment of war, “Bury the Dead” ! caused such a sensation this spring, j there Is a greater awareness of the obligation of the theater to do other ) than merely entertain. This Increasing social awareness among the younger playwrights has turned them to subjects which are of conI temporary significance. New Vitality in Theater While efforts of the Federal Theater Project have not as yet produced any masterpieces, there Is present a healthy vitality and willingness to experiment which Indicates that the movement may prove an Incubator for some later worthy effort. It Is notable at least because It gives a chance to many who could never have crashed the barriers of the commercial theater. But let us consider more fully whether one can reasonably expect a renaissance of the American drama. The 1936 Pulitzer prize winner was Robert Sherwoed's “idiot’s Delight”.

• play which met with a widely divergent reception. While nearly everyone conceded It to be a good example of tbo facile and scintillating stylo of Sherwood, there were those who questioned how much significance could properly be attached to tbe anti-war theme which was worked into ft. Without entering Into the dispute, it can be said that the 1936 Pulitzer prize winner Is a more meritorious effort than some which have won tho award tn recent years. O'Neill Still Experimenting Further indications that tho legitimate theater la regaining some of the ground lost to Hollywood Is contained In a review of the 1935-36 season which lists such plays as “Ethan Frome". "Dead End", "Winterset", by Maxwell Anderson, the Critics’ Circle choice. “First Lady". "End of Summer" and “The Children’s Hour". While all of these Plays could hardly be described as important or significant social commentaries. each casts some illumination on a certain phase of existence and Is more than mere entertainment Another sign which might be regarded as a hopeful one for the future is the news that O'Neill is nearing completion of an ambitious project comprising seven plays tracing In chronological order the history of an American family from 1850 to modern times. It is too much to hope that the Golden Age of Pericles or the lusty theater of the Elizabethans will be approached by American playwrights within the next decade. There is. however, broad signs which suggest that out of the depression there may be born a new theater more closely allied with everyday life and more truly representative of the American scene.
