Doubtless, too, even In this air-minded

Mr.. HooYer's First Congress.

To get along with Congress" is,
under our system Of government, a
paramount necessity for President, If
his administration and its policies are
to have smooth sailing. Detached and
distinct as the executive and legislative
branches are, there is, nevertheless, an
inter0ependency without which the
ship Of state would face rough going
and stormy seas.
Herbert Hoover today is on the
threshold of his maiden experience with
a Congress. Some Of his predecessors
have spoken more or less despairingly
Of having Congress ION their hands. -"
Their inference was that Capitol Hill
and the White House are more or less
natural rivals, If not foes, and that
discord, rather than harmony, Is the
normal state of their relations.
There is no reason why President
Hoover should contemplate a season Of
stress and strife with the Seventy first
Congress, which convenes today in spe-
cial session at his summons. The Re-
publican party is overwhelmingly In the
saddle in both branches. In the House
Of Representatives Speaker Longworth
and Leader Tilson marshal a G. o. p.
host which counts majority of nearly
one hundred. In the Senate Vice Pres
ident Curtis and Leader Watson survey
Al xa,hiAIa Mf
least, registers a majority Of sixteen
over all. It is true that this double
octet embraces Republican Progressives
Of nercurial party loyalty, but there is
at this writing no reason to suppose
that the group will provide serious de-
fections from a vote necessary to sup
port administration policies.
This strongly Republican Congress
was swept into Office on the Hoover
landslide Of 1928. The President Is en-
titled, by all the rules of the political
game, to its aid and backing. 1t is
not to be expected that the support will
be Of the thick and-thin character. But
an electorate which sent Herbert Hoo
yer and the Seventy-first Congress into
power Jointly on the Republican ma
tional platform will reasonably look to
genuine teamwork between the two
headquarters on Pennsylvania avenue.
Happily the President has given nu-
merous concrete indications of his de-
termination to get along With Con-
gress" He has signale6 Shat he will
bran6ish no Rooseveltian or Wilsonian
big stick. He has established a close
liaison with responsible Republican
leaders. He has revealed an apparently
invincible resolve to let Congress be
master in its own houses.
The stage seems set for q happy
Union between the two constructive
wings Of the Federal organism.

or jointly that no arms should be ship
ped from one to the other during war
time, the result would be to force all
nations to build up great stores Of arms
and munitions against day Of storm
and stress. This might-doubtiess would
work to the advantage of the arms and
munitions manufacturers everywhere,
but it would scarcely be an effective
weapon against international conflict.
There Is no doubt tina. efforts will
continue to devise methods Of lessening
the possibility of war. The Kellogg
treaty has declared great principle
that war shall not be an instrumental
ity Of settling disputes between nations,
but that they shall be settled by peace
full means. The great nations of the
world have agreed to this principle. It
is distinctly a step in ADVANCE step
in the effort to educate the world away
from war. But when any effort is made
to make this treaty enforceable" then,
indeed. difflculty arises and there lurk
in such efforts the germs of war them
selves.

Lauds Move to Improve
City Architecture

TO the Editor of The Star:
1 was greatly interested in the story
in last Saturdays Star of the buildings
selected for awards for meritorious de-
sign and desire to warmly commend
The Star as we'll as the Board of Trade
for this recognition and encouragement
Of architectural development "in keep
ing with the dignity and (potentiaD
beauty of the Capital" And, most of
all, desire to congratulate and thank
the architects for their admirable con-
tributions to the city's beauty. When
nations become o little more civilized !
think we shall erect monuments to
architects who create buildings instead
of to generals who destroy them, for in
my estimation good architect is one
Of the greatest and noblest of men.
Washington will not be really BEAU
tiful city, comparable to Paris or
Madrid or other handsome, finished Eu-
ropean capitals, until we have long
viStas of buildings like these instead OF
only an occasional one. At present,
except in spots, we still present very
much the appearance Of a frontier
town, with two-story tobacco shacks on
our most prominent corners. filling
station opposite, and alongside this
painted-front chain store, too often,
alas. the, mutilated remains OF a once
fine old residence!
So any encouragement Of the preser-
walton of old or the construction OF
new, appropriate and excellent archl-
lecture is highly commendable and viii
be found in the long run the best IN
vestment that can be made, for Wash
ington's greatest industry is its visitors,
and these come here by the thousands
and spend their money here because of
the beauty that we do possess Of parks
and trees and gardens and few hand

Making War Difficult.

Representative Hamilton Fish of New
York Is seeking new formula to make
war more difficult for the belligerently
inclined. In the House he sponsored
the Capper resolution at the last ses-
sion Of Congress. That resolution sought
to prevent the export Of any war NUM-
lions from the United States to any
nation which violated the Kellogg null
tilateral treaty renouncing war. The
objection raised to the Capper plan was
that the duty Of determining which Of
the belligerents had violated the treaty
was placed upon the shoulders of the
President Of the United States, It was
argued that such determination would
merely result in aligning the United
States with one of the warning nations
and against the other.
Mr.. Fish now comes forward with q
resolution which would halt the ship
ment Of arms and munitions from this
country TO any nation engaged in war,
IN which the United States declares its
neutrality, except with the consent Of
Congress. No mention is made in his
resolution of the Kellogg treaty. Mr..
Fish has shifted from the President to
Congress the burden Of determining
what nations If any shall purchase
arms and munitions from the Unit
ed States. 1t Is clear, however, that
Congress. If it desires. may pass resolu-
lions permitting the shipment Of arms
to ell the belligerents in such a war, If
IL desires, thereby relieving the United
states from the attitude Of supporting
one side against the other. Or, II the
Congress so determine, it may place q
han upon the shipment Of arms to any
Of the belligerentS. But that might
merely become another means of aid
ing one nation or group of nations
against another, for one might need
arms and the other might not.
There is still another difficulty. Free
euently there are long stretches Of time
when Congress is not in session. It
would scarcely be likely that the Presi-
dent would call Congress into special
session for the purpose Of determining
whether arms should be sold to bell
ligerentS in . war which broke out dur
ing q recess of the Congress, though
the Importance of the conflict might
make 1t advisable to do so.
The dificulty Of making a hard and
fast rule regarding the shipment OF
arms and munitions to other nations is
obvious, II the United states or any
other manufacturing nation wishes TO
y fair. ]: the nations .asreed sepaxately
