'THEYGTELL ME' s. J
Ea~Sfzv, |5FG=7TZ1WG,s8RA

The house Of representatives we'll
may deserve the name of the
monkey house" but the senate is
all the rest Of the ZOO. Watching
the antics of the animals affords
the only real relief on a hot sum-
,mer day.
And if no one else can procure a
laugh, there is Senator Lee j. Hart
zell of FIT. Wayne, Republican floor
leader. He's the member with the
pocket mirror, who flashes it seven
or eight times an hour while mend
ing the part in his hair.
The great Lee now is engaged in
feud with Jerome Brown, the vet
eran doorkeeper of the senate.
Last session a Negro employee, j.
w. Mills, forgot to pay him the re-
Spect the Republican floor leader
felt to be his due. Like the ele-
plant, Hartzeu never forgot.
To his CONSERVATION, while sur
veying himself III his pocket mirror
the other day, Lee saw the vision
of Mills.
With an inarticulate cry of rage
he was on his feet and bore down
upon the .ianitor with the demand
to know who had employed him.
The reply was that Brown had
engaged his services and that's why
I'm here, boss"
Hartzell. who heads the patron
age, or plumber, committee and be-
cause of this control of pay roll
favors is the floor leader, demanded
that Brown discharge Mills and
refund from his own pocket the SGT
already paid the janitor as wages.
Brown refused and Hartzell took
the floor of the senate with a mo-
ton that the doorkeeper refund
the money paid the janitor.
Democratic Leader Walter Cham
bers suggested that the matter was
so important that perhaps the G..
o. P. members best caucus on it.
The suggestion was not needed and
Hartzells motion WAS voted down.
Later, Lieutenant Governor Bush
said that he was aware of the en-
ployment of Mills and had ap-
proved it.
When the Republican floor lead
er takes up the time of the senate
on matters of that nature, how can
the taxpayers expect to get action
on tax relief measures under the
forty-day session limit? we ask.

THERE oughta be law" says
i Senator Handout, who has
been finding the pickin's poor this
session, against heads of state
colleges, members of institutional
boards, and the pay roll boys
clutterin' up the lobby and the COM
mittee rooms"
This veteran, who puts out the
best utility purchased "ikker" of
any legislators, was in vindictive
mood as he said this. He bit down
on his borrowed" cigar, pushed
aside the borrowed" meal, and
and gave the OF conductor his
sentiments on the great problems Of
the special session.
"F'rinstance, there's the Rowley
bill in the senate, which would re-
move the mandatory feature OF the
law requiring counties to hire agri-
cultural agents.
Its a waste Of money nowadays
and anyhow, the taxpayers should
have a say-so as to whether they
want an agricultural agent.
"AS it is today, the law provides
a job for every graduate of Purdue
agricultural school. Why Dean
Skinner came down to an agricul-
tural committee meeting of the sem
ate and said We had to kill that bill.
In other words, the state has to
take care of the poor student after
it gives him an education, according
to the dean.
"The way the situation is today,
we don't need any agricultural eX-
perts in most Of the farming coun-
ties. The graduates ought TO earn
their livings of the public pay roll.
There was time when the
farmer wanted to know how to
make two stalks of corn grow where
only one grew before, but with the
grain market as it is today, what
the farmer wants to learn is how to
make one stalk grow where there
were two before"
Obviously in a better mood with
this of his mind, Senator Handout
propped his feet on the table and
rolling his cigar for a minute,
added: Senator Rowley's bill has
merit and should pass. even though,
as the Purdue professors say, it
closes she door Of opportunity to the
young"

HOOVER TO HIT
DEMOCRATS AS
SALOON PARTY
President Aided by StraddIe
Group in Preparing His
Acceptance Speech.
BY RAY TUCKER
Times stan Writer

WASHINGTON, July 21.-Pres-
ident Hoover's prohibition policy in
the presidential campaign will be to
denounce the Democrats repeal
plank as permitting the return Of
the saloon, according to reports in
White House circles today.
He may sponsor this treatment OF
the issue in his acceptance address
next month.
Although the White House board
of strategy has not worked out all
details of the attack, it is under
stood they favor taking the offensive
rather than explaining or defending
their own plank.
In this way. it is felt, Hoover
can avoid any charge Of changing
his position, and conciliate both
vets and drys in Republican ranks.
This question is giving Hoover
and his associates more trouble than
any other, and it accounts for the
Presidents delay in setting a day
for notification exercises.
Straddlers in Saddle
This part of the speech is said
to be in the hands Of various men,
bers of his cabinet and leading Re-
publican drys, including the same
group which forced the convention
to adopt the so-called ''straddle'
plank.
Those counseling this attack be-
heve it will serve to make the
saloon rather than prohibition
the paramount issue in the wet-dry
fight. In 1923 the promise of a
Wickersham investigation was SINH
larly used in different and devious
ways in various sections by the
Hoover organization.
In the wet northeast the argu-
ment will be that the plank is only
slightly less wet than the Demo-
Gratis. But in the dry south and
west Republican spellbinders will
point to the presidential denuncla-
ton of the saloon as evidence that
Hoover opposes any backward step
toward the brass rail and the saw
dust.
Dry Issue Is Foremost
Republican Strategists have laid
aside almost all other political bust
ness during the preparation of
Hooyer's acceptance speech dealing
with this issue. They realize that
it may prove the determining factor
in the whole campaign, and that a
blunder may antagonize elements
which never can be won back.
Professional drys have added to
the suspense by withholding any in
dorSement or disapproval pending
the acceptance speech. But the vets
also are eXerting pressure, demand
ing that Hoover give his own inter-
probation of the platform in frank
and unequivocal statement.
Strangely enough, the two women
whose reputed dry views might
have affected this issue recently
have eliminated themselves. Some
drys comforted themselves over
Roosevelt'S attitude with the
thought that Mrs Roosevelt did
not favor repeal. But she made
clear that she does.
Republicans had hoped that Mrs.
Mabel Walker Willebrandt, their
dry Joan of Arc in 1923. might
stump for Hoover, and try to con-
vince the prohibitionists that, de-
spite the partys plank, he still was
a white -ribboner.
But Mrs. Willebrandt has disap-
pointed them with formal an
nouncement that she will preserve
political silence"
