THE NATIONAL
GOVERNMENT
BY CONG. JOHN PAUL KvALE

Just this morning -Saturday
comes definite information of creation
and organization of the steering COM
mittee set up by the Democrats in the
House as the result of the generous
decision of the Speaker, dating from
the time he was nominated, and re-
ferred to in this letter three weeks ago.
More than that, the chairman OF this
most important group is Representa-
tive Bob" CrOsser of Ohio, long a
progressive of the, old Tom Johnson
school of Cleveland, Ohio, liberals.
Since this steering committee, COM
posed of representative spokesman
from all sections of the nation, will
have a decisive voice in the determin-
alton and effectuation of the majority
party program and policies, there is
no little ground for encouragement
over this news.
1t is entirely the outgrowth of the
personal views and convictions of
Speaker Rainey, and in complete har-
mony with his entire magnificent rec
ord of service in Congress. 1t is d
definite turning point i'm the history
| of the House, for it represents the
voluntary termination of the auto.
cratic and often ruthless power that
that office has held and exercised. L
gives promise that, in the House al
least, any forward-looking and pro
gressive proposal will have sympa
thetic consideration. That will be
something new to the writer, who ha:
been here on the ground for ten years
1t should be stated that complete
truth might demand the added OBJ
ServatiOn that recent development
described last week and borne on
this week-have hurried the leaders
plans, for the growing revolt agains
the supine and abject submission t.
Executive orders and DEGREES has rap
idly approached the breaking point
On the floor, within the week. thu
House has been described by one o
its rankeSt conservatives as funne
through which legislation is precipi
lately poured into the Senate, leavin;
to that body the necessary duty o
doing the law-making as best it could
But that is going over ground al
ready covered in earlier letters.
Nevertheless, the farm bill offer
a most excellent example CT the above
As stated last week, the first of tn,
three administration steps was con
|sidered and passed by the House un
der most drastic gag rule, which
permitted some little amount of talk
but absolutely no action in the wa.
of amendments, and sent over to thu
Senate. There hearings were opened
in response to the irresistible demand
of those who took their responsible
ties seriously. They promise to con
sumo several days, and the bill will
doubtless be changed in several es
lsentials from the form in which tn,
House sent it over.
One important point in controvers,
