CONFERS IN GOTHAM
ON ABSENTEE VOTERS
D. C. Democratic Committeeman
Discusses Means to Get Out
Ballots in Capital.

John F. Costello, Democratic nation
al committeeman for the District OF
Columbia, is at the national headquar-
ters in New York today comforting re-
garding the program for getting out
the absentee vote of Government en-
ployes here and the part that promi-
nent party men in Washington will take
in the presidential campaign.
Complaint that the Republican ad-
ministration is making it extremely
difficult for employees in the Federal
departments to arrange their plans so
they may go back home to vote in this
years presidential election is made by
National Committeeman Costello.
High officials of the administration" -"
he said, 'are gallavanting about the
country at will on all sorts of political
missions, but the rank and file Of Un-
Gle Sans employees are digging away at
their desks in Washington in a con-
certed effort to bring the country back
to normal.
Washington is not such an anomaly
IN politics as most people think" OBJ
served the District committeeman.
"Constitutionally. the Capital, which is
a seething cauldron of political agita-
ton for three and three-quarters out
OF every four years, is supposed to drift
into a cataleptic state with the ap-
proach of a presidential election and
not awaken until after the rest of the
country has gone to the polls and voted
in November. Humanity, the reverse Of
that is true; we are the most widely
awake people on earth during ma
tionai campaign. Moreover, we vote
at least, many of us DO.
From 10000 to 10000 residents Of
the District-notice I say residents
and not citizens retained their
voting rights in the various States;
and mere of them, judging by their
present activity, are going back home
to vote this year than ever before in
history. We have an absentee voters
bureau in our Washington headquar-
ters and it is veritable bee hive of
industry.
1T is particularly gratifying in this
connection to be able to say that Gov.
Roosevelt is immensely popular in
Washington despite the complexion of
the administration. If Washington
residents could vote, Mr.. Roosevelt
would carry the Capital of the Nation
by a 10-to-1 majority. This is an
important indication because in the
nature of its population the District
is fairly accurate barometric refiec-
ton of the political sentiment of the
country.
Perhaps it is with a knowledge Of
this fact that the Republican admin
istration is acting to make it extremely
difficult, by the curtailment of leaves
of absence and in the adjusting and
fixing of periods for enforced fur
loughs, for Government employees to
absent themselves from Washington for
voting purposes this year"

1t was just an idea of his. he said,
to eliminate five days of delay required
by law between application fol, and
issuance of a marriage license, should
anything happen to his wife.
Mrs. Burger was much surprised TO
learn of her husbands foresight. So

mistake. :,
Burger agreed with her when police

New York, Jan. 0.-One Santa
Claus in this world looks like Santa
all the year around.
His name is Eugene Gene Todd;
he Is the only Santa who grows his
own silken white hair and beard; he
appears to be about 70 and as hale,
hearty and merry as the mythical
Christmas patron who Is blessed OF
all children and not infrequently
cussed about by tired parents.
The news reel cameramen have
spread his pictures over the globe and
he is something Of q minor celebrity.
But Christmas is over and Santa
has vanished for another season. SO
what, you may we'll ask, does the most
famous st. Nick do for living be-
tween Yuletides?
X X X
Well, sir, take it or leave it, Lode
stones are still sold in New York.
And Eugene Todd is king Of the
lodestone" industry.
For 80 years he has sold lodestones
right here in the heart of the most
hard-boiled town In the States" He
sells them in office buildings and in
stores; he sells them to sentimental
stenographers and to amused bust
ness giants; he sells them to high
school kids and to young scientists in
laboratories
And lodestoneS, III case your men,
ory has slipped, are almost as legen-
Diary as Santa Claus himself.
Their alleged magical properties
were lauded way back when time was
much younger and more innocent,
Early medicine men used this mag
netized rock as a cure-all. Anything
from toothache to insomnia. Because
1t had magnetic properties, it was
supposed to draw out the pain"
X X X
well, I happened to get hold of a
couple of pieces about as big as your
finger nail," reciteS Santa Claus
Todd, land started out to sell them.
I 60 around to offices and I take q
few needles and some assorted SAM
pies of lodestone and some flakes OF
metal. And I put on my show. ]
show them that there's a positive and
a negative lodestone; that sometimes
one attracts and another repels. And
I've got story to go with it-about
marriage and divorce I tell them
how one sort of thing draws objects
together and another separates them
Eyes, sir, and I can tell sex with
them. Sometimes I carry eggs and
tell whether they're male or female
If it's romantic girl I'm dealing
with, then I tell her to put it under
her pillow and all her dreams will
come true. Some folks carry them
around in their pockets as lucky
pieces. The least I get Is 81 and
sometimes, for big piece, I get SIC
and up"

Popping Up Congressional
Record

Congressman John j. Boylan Of
New York believes that the Con-
gressional Record is too dull and
fails to present fair and complete
picture of the doings of the national
legislature. So, in resolution in
troduced the other day, he asks con-
gress to decide if pictures, cartoons
and the like couldn't be printed in the
governments august magazine.
That the Record is dull IS perfectly
true. But there is much quicker
and easier way of reducing some OF
the dizziness, and that is to do away
with the extension of remarks busi-
ness which now cutters 1t up. Any
congressman can have long, windy
and excessively uninteresting speech
inserted in the Record without ever
going to the trouble of delivering it.
He can even insert such parenthetical
comments as daughter) and Gap
plause) wherever he chooses.
II the Record could be confined
strictly to things actually said on
the floors Of the two houses it would
be vastly improved. Let Mr.. Boylan
give it thought before a photo-en-
craving outfit Is got ready.

An Important Anniversary
Generally speaking, little attention
will be paid to the anniversary Of the
birth Of Benjamin Franklin, which
will be celebrated January II. The
part which he played in the Revolu-
ton which freed the American colo
MES is lost sight OF In the average
school history and, at best, it was not
Of such spectacular character as to
command wide attention.
Nevertheless, many competent his
torians are of the opinion that Frank
Inns presence ON that scene was one
Of the strange coalition of fortuitous
circumstances which brought the
United States into being.
Any study of F'ranklin's biography
convinces the reader that here was
one Of the greatest geniuses this ma
ton ever produced. AS scientist he
ranks with Edison. AS statesman
he is without a peer in the annals of
the nation. AS a patriot he ranks with
Washington, jefferson and others OF
that brave band who fought the coun-
trys battles, even though there Is no
record Of Franklin ever having par
ticipated in battle.
Any competent biography of Benja-
min Franklin will make excellent
reading these cold winter evenings. A
of this mans life will give
any American new courage, INSPIRE
him with new hope and new pride.
