 PRESIDENT UNWORRIED
 Roosevelt has intimated to his friends that he is not worried about the $700,0O0,00 bond is- sue due December Is. People have to invest in government bonds. he thinks, because there is little else for them to invest in.
 The chief goal the president has ahead of him is the return of the dollar to it's 1926 purchas- ing power, and to keep 1t there for a generation. In talking with his advisers, this is the object which he always comes back to. The latter say that no matter how many Morgans and Baruchs call on him he will not take his eyes off that goal.

 Someone was joshing Post master General Farley the other day about the trip he is taking to Ireland.
 'T suppose. Jim, that when you get over there you'll look up your family genealogy," the friend suggested.

 When and if congress decides to poke its nose into the dynamic question of public works, one question it will want to air is the part played by Ebert K. Bur- lew in the public works deal.
 Burlew came into the interior department as a republican, served without Interruption un- der various republican secretar- les, but despite deluge of criti- cism against him, has been one of the key men in the democratic public works administration.
 If congress digs into the matt ter deeply enough it will discover the reason why. The fact Is that without Burlew, public works would never have accomplished what it has. With the possible exception of one man, Burlew has been the handspring of the PWA. In addition to this, he is chief executive officer of the in- teriOr department. His hours run from 8 a. m. to ii p. m. without exception.
 Co-equal with Burlew in de- serving praise is Col Henry M. Waite, engineer in charge. Once city manager of Dayton. Ohio, constructor of many giant engi- neering projects, Waite's experi- ence and driving energy have es- tablished record which no con- gressional committee can under- mine.
