THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, SATURDAY, NOV. 17, 1934, their political enemies not have them jailed for speeding or double arking when they ought to be legislating. But it is the sense of the Supreme Court that the Senator’s legislative activities would not be inter- fered with by a civil suit.

By no means the most important, but certainly the most spectacular of the rulings handed down by the United States Supreme Court this week is that which requires Senator Huey P. Long to stand trial in a $500,000 libel suit. The dictator of Louisi- ana made some very harsh comments on the character and record of Samuel T. Ansell, counsel for a Senate committee to which Long was giving testimony. The Kingfish had no compunctions about speaking his mind very frankly, trusting implicitly in his immunity from arrest, as provided in the Constitution. But immunity from arrest is one thing, it seems, and immunity from a civil process is another. The Constitution prou\cta the members of Congress from that on a visit in 1931 he a dazed and helpless man “White House untidiness.” | Mr. Richey replies that Mr. Wells never saw the inside of the White House for the very good reason | that President Hoover refused to receive him there as a guest. The two men met for the space of two minutes in the Executive offices. What other President in the last fifty years would have treated so cavalierly a personage of such prominence as Mr. Wells, the wielder of so fluent and forceful a pen? The distinguished Eng- lishman would have been received with honors. He would have been given the same opportunity to suggest modifications in the United States Con- stitution that Stalin recently gave him to bring forward a drastic revision of Karl Marx. But it is not the only instance of President Hoover's genius for encouraging hostile publicity. | the English writer s fuund President Hoover caught in a swirl of Billion Dollars—Million Jobs. (Borea, Ohio, Enterprise.) It is estimated that there is in this country $1,000,000,000 of idle capital which would normally be used in the mortgage market for residential building. If, as is hoped, present efforts loosen these | funds and bring building back near normal, close to a million men will find good jobs. They will have regular incomes, after years in which most of them have been finding the going extremely hard. They will have money to spend, for necessities and luxuries—and that money will go through a thousand and one industries, buying materials and supplies and services, paying taxes and _interest, creating | more jobs and building up payrolls for all types of workers. That is what construction revival will do for the country generally. In its individual application, so far as the property owner is concerned, it will likewise do this—boom building costs. They have been rising slowly but steadily since the low reached last Summer. They are still far below normal. As a matter of fact, costs of most materials used in building have lagged behind the general commodity rice advance. That means that the millions of izens who have money with which to build and repair now, before this belated boom starts, can still get a whole lot more than a dollar’s worth for every dollar spent. And that condition isn’t going | much longer, unless all present signs poini; the wrong w | Build now, repair now, renovize now. That rotto will aid you. in doing your bit toward | achieving recovery, and *will put money in your‘ pocket. “Did you hear about Pat O'Rourke gettin’ drowned yesterday?” Flannigan: “Drowned, no!
