OMWdshinptonL Letter
BY W ODaley

Washington, June 29-It is candidly
admitted in all partisan camps that
President Hoover's action on the re-
lief measure now awaiting his atten-
ton will determine the duration of
the Congressional session. If he ex-
ercises his power of veto it is OBJ
viOus that the advocates of the meas
ure cannot muster the two-thirds vote
in both Senate and House necessary
to override the disapproval. Then,
a prolonged session will be inevitable
with the Presidential and Congress
siOnal campaigns centered in Wash
ingtOn instead of scattered around
the country.
While at this writing a veto is
threatened it is argued that the Chief
Executive would probably choose the
lesser of two evils-patch-work relief
bill contrary to his own ideas of eco
nomicS rather than the menace of
continued wrangling when the nation
is calling for adjournment. If a de-
cisiOn could be based on his feelings
as a President and not as a chosen
say Mr.. Hoover would return the Wag-
ner- Garner bills post-haste without
his signature. Campaign obligations
frequently temper mems minds and
actions.
The Congress is fully conscious of
another angle and makes the most of
the knowledge. The Democrats have
indicated that economic issues will
be featured over the prohibition con-
troversy. This procedure, if adopted
means that the politicians in all
groups will play their game around
the peoples heartstrings and purse
The legislators would like to quit
now before the President has an OPP
portunity to veto or sign. Yet, they
realize that it is impossible under
present trend of public opinion to
| leave their bundle on the White House
| doorstep and scamper to their homes
| There is an incipient rebellion noted
in the House and Senate against adj
| journment which may prevent home
ward tricks. Only a foOlhardy solon
| would leave his post of duty no mat
| ter how much his political fences re-
quire repair.
The antagonism against Presiden-
tial commissions and Congressional
| investigating committees has been
| pronounced at this session. Many
proposals for creation of special
groups of inquiry have been defeated
as economy measures" The House
| has authorized a special probe into
the management of the Post Office
Department, especially relating to the
letting of contracts for buildings, all
and ocean mail, and other places
where favoritism plays an important
part. One legislator denounced this
new investigation as smelling com
mittee." 1t is noteworthy that rela-
lively few fishing expeditions into
public affairs have been authorized
Ir each instance the Congress has
curbed the expenses which prevent
| junkets during the summer and fall
Fairness requires the admission
that at least three probes are ex.
pected to justify the expenditure
| The Senate inquiry of stock market
frauds is in response to public clamor
mostly from millions of victims OF
stock manipulation. The sub-com-

that there should be a "back to the

able to keep your good resolutions,
for human nature does not change
over night. A vile temper is not
cured by three months absent treat
ment, but by years of conscious
struggle for self-control. The loss
of your wife makes you meek tenn
porarily, but if she came back your
old enemy would stalk between you
again.
If you love her as much as you
think you do, discipline yourself by
leading an exemplary life. Insist
upon her parents accepting money
for her support whether she returns
to your side or not. Show the dawn
of some real unself1shness in your
character and if opportunity ever
comes again, profit by what you
have learned. I print a letter from
another woman who left her hus-
band so that you may know what a
relief it is to be rid of one who mis-
treats you.

he only got worse. We had four nice
children. I took his abuse. He was
cruel, untrue, and would grumble at
everything we did; Then I got a divorce
what a fool I was to live with him as
long as I did. We are getting along
very well and at last have peace of mind
and are not living under a nervous
strain. When folks can not agree, di-
