Organizing the Next Congress

There has been much speculation upon how the next
congress will be organized but putting aside all %gratuitous
advice and prophecy, 1t Is q rather safe bet to wager
that II the Republicans can control both bodies they will
force through an organization on strictly partisan lines
It IS peculiar how regular the insurgents in both branches
of congress can be on matters involving patronage.
It is hard for instance to visualize Senator Borah, in
the interests of a coalition with Democrats, stepping
down from his craftsmanship of the foreign relations
committee or that arch progressive. Norris, whose in
surgency caused him to bolt the Hoover ticket at the last
presidential election, give his job as head Of the judiciary
committee over to some deserving Democrat.
Senators and representatives may surge and resurge
over matters Of legislation, but when it comes to COM
mittee assignments. postoffices. and patronage in gen.
= eral a Boise Penrose could not be more regular. Then
they wear party labels on their sleeves and are as regular
as their selfish interests can dictate.
1t is admitted that the leadership of the Republican
national party is at very low ebb. but if the leaders 60
into any coalition with the Democrats to destroy the last
remnants of organization in either branch of congress,
the Republicans deserve the worst trimming at the
hands Of the voters in 1882 they ever had.
Some of the levet-headed regulars, such as Reed and
smoot in the senate. have fastened to deny that such
m impasse will occur and Borah has remarked that he
wished he were Is sure of the Kingdom of Heaven as
he was that the Republicans will never give up their
senate chairmanships as long as they have the votes to
retain them"
The New York Times editorially has warned the Demo-
Gratis against accepting the responsibility Of organizing
the next congress even though 1t Is rendered them
through an alignment with the ~insurgent Republicans.
This leading Democratic newspaper thinks such a
responsibility would be q poor prelude or curtain raiser
to the next national campaign.
II the Democrats have the votes or can control them
through some fusion. they will organize congress. The
temptation to control so much patronage and direct
legislation would be too great for that party to stand
aside. The lofty advice Of cooperation with Republicans
Is not being treated seriously by Senator Glass and some
Of the leaders who know the game Of practical politics
and love to play 1t and in most instances must of neces-
sity play 1t or be left at the pole.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Length Of Fruit Diet

Question: Mrs. K. L. asks: "How
long must one take the fruit juice
diet and what must one eat directly
after leaving off the fruit juices? Can
the pulp Of the orange be eaten, or
just the juice?"
Answer: Your question about the
length of the fruit juice diet is too
general for me to give you q very
good answer through this column
Anyone will profit a great deal b,
taking an exclusive fruit diet for 8

the pulp of the orange when on ar

CHINESE REPUBLIC
OPENS new MINT
American Built, Equipped and

Worlds Most Modern.

SHANGHAI lF).-An American built,
equipped and directed mint. said to be
the most up-to-date of its kind in the

making for 10 years.
The institution was undertaken when
the defunct Peiping government was in
power, but lack of funds slowed the
building work, and for several years the
costly equipment was useless in so far
as providing China with a much-needed
standard coinage was concerned.

But with the advent of the National
list regime and removal of the capital To
Marking the project was revived. The
new ministry of finance took over the
whole thing, despite the $4,000, 900 debt
hanging over it and under the direction
of T. v. Soong, finance minister, has
pushed 1t to completion.

is Clifford Hewitt of Philadelphia. He
has been on the job here since 1920.

Bad Road Tax Runs
Into Large Totals
Highways Better Than in Form
er Years, But Far From
What They Might Be

Although both trunk highways and
secondary roads have been better this
spring than any other recent year,
many car owners of Minnesota paid
"bad road taxes" during the past
eight or ten weeks greater than the
total sum they pay for good roads
in a whole year, according to State
Highway bulletin.
How much the motoring public as
whole has paid in bad road taxes no
one can estimate, but although
weather conditions have been I'M
usually favorable, there are plenty of
individuals ready to testify that
single trips have cost them more
than their years license and gas tax.
Unlike some recent years when
many of the unpaved roads have been
impossible to all traffic for weeks at
a time, this year very few stretches
have been impossible very long. But
on nearly all of the unpaved routes
there have been some frost boils and
soft stretches which have caused
many cars and trucks to get stuck.
In some cases it is the skilful driver
who gets through; in other cases it
is just luck In guessing which rut has
the best bottom. But even those who
get through on their own power will
agree that trip of one or two hum
dred miles over muddy and badly
rutted roads takes more out of a car
IN tire wear, repairs and depreciation
than 1000 miles on good roads.
Last year the Minnesota Highway
department gave special treatment,
such as thing, trenching and gravel
filling, to dozens of short stretches
where frost boils had been prevalent
In former years. This spring many,
but not all, of these stretches came
through in good shape, but now frost
boils popped up in unexpected plac-
es. AT times when the weather turn
ed suddenly warm, frost boils would
appear at place which had been dry
and dusty for several weeks before.
The Highway department has kept
records of all places where frost boil
treatment was applied last year, and
is making detailed study of the re-
suits this spring, for future guidance
In frost boil prevention.
Besides favorable weather condi-
lions, the early enforcement of load
restrictions kept many roads passable
to light traffic. But these load re-
strictions disorganized many lines of
business for several weeks, imposing
another form of "bad road tax"
Paving and bituminous treatment
kept some routes in good condition
this year which formerly were i'm
passable during the spring breakup,
but there are still several thousand
miles of the heavily travelled trunk
highways, to say nothing of second
airy roads, which cannot be depended
upon for all-year transportation.
In most sections of the state. the
gravelcd state aid roads were in bet
ter condition than the trunk highway
ways, but as soon as the trunk routes
became poor, traffic shifted to local
roads and in many cases did serious
damage.
