One possibility is the further ex- tension of the list of public utili- tles, . .0 That committee also saw an _ad- vantage in the democratic form ot government to carry out social aims, “with less lag between sccial change and governmental adapta- tion.” The Government’s action in re- gard to mortgage insurance and public utilities demonstrates a trend toward the course seen by that committee. And that is the only trend disclosed by Congress or the courts since the special session of Congress began last November 15.

Louis is meeting Mann in defense of his title as a novelty stunt in tistic fun for the first indoor match in 18 years being fought for boxing's most luctative crown. Although it appears a great deal as though the bout will be nothing more or less than a tuneup tight for the champion’s forthcoming bout with Max Schmeling, there is a long shot chance that something sur- prising may happen. Ii is that “dcuble 0" gamble that is fecusing unprecedented interest on a bout that is obviousiy one-sid- ed.
