DEALING WITH 1884 CON.
GREssIoNAL ELECTIONS

WASHINGTON, May IL
Quietly, but in determined
fashion, the leaders of the repub-
lican party are going about the
task of perfecting their organi-
zation for the congressional cleo
tions of 1884 and the big push for
the presidency in 1896.
There's nothing much being
said publicly as yet. The big
guns of the G. o. p. around Wash
/. ington, when questioned about
their activities, put on vague ex-
pressions and wide smiles, but say
little.
But there are definite indica-
tions that they are at work.
The appearance Of Ogden Mills,
secretary of the treasury under
| the Hoover administration, on the
scene in Washington presumably
directing. the fight against the in
flation proposal, aroused the in
terest of the political wise ones.
Announcement also Of creation
of the so-called Federal Associates.
an organization composed of many
of the leaders in the Hoover adj
ministfation and headed by Wal
ter Brown, former postmaster
general, ;sand Mills likewise started
political gossip.
An understanding?
MillsIand Representative Wads-
worth Of New York have been
mentioned in all speculation as to
who will be the G. o. P. standard
bearersin 1886.
Both come from New York.
Friends OF the two have urged
that they get together and reach
some sort of understanding.
One hears, for example, that
Wadsworth might try to recapture
his old seat in the senate next
year. The democratic Senator
Copeland is up to run then. We're
Wadsworth to decide on such a
course it might be of great poll
teal significance.
There's another figure on the
lpolitical horizon at the present
that every one is watching. He is
Senator McNary of Oregon, the
republican floor leader.
Unlisted DoubtfuIs
Coming from the west, he might
find himself in favorite position

vention rolls around. 1t may be
significant, too, that McNary's

There's another republican who
enjoyed high positions under Presi-
dent Hoover whose name is con-
spicuously absent from all these
newly formed organizations. He
is Pat Hurley, former secretary
of war.
He says that he is engaged ex-

who know Hurley find it difficult
to believe that politics does not

FLOOR LEADERS
In FIRST REAL
TEST In HOUSE
BOB UP WHEN
SENATE SENDS OVER FARM
BILL WITH CURRENCY IN
FLATIoN AMENDMENT
By HERBERT PLUMMER
QRy ASnoeintcd isTeAsl

WASHINGTON, May 11.-Pre-
dictions made quite while ago
that the grand old game Of poll
tics--so markedly abandoned
since March 4-was soon due for
a revival on capitol hill apparently
were well founded.
At least it appeared so to those
who sat in the galleries of the
house the day that the senate sent
over the farm bill with the eur
rency initiation amendment for ac-
ton in that body.
It was the first real test be-
tween the two floor leaders Of the
nouseBert Smell of New York,
the republican general, and Joe
Byrns of Tennessee, the demo
cratic chieftain.
The two, both veterans of the
house, haven't had much oppor-
tunity thus far in the special SEES
sion to lock horns. Republicans
and democrats alike have been
working in the closest harmony
most of the time that the presi-
dent was working out his emer-
gency program.
Came The Battle
Initiation, however, was another
thing. Smell and his aids had
been mapping their plans foi
days. Encouraged by the stiff
opposition offered in the senate
to the initiation amendment by
Reed of Pennsylvania and others
Smell was ready to fight to tho
last.
Joe Byrns' idea was to get tbs
matter before the house i'm
mediately and have it done with
! 1t was assured Of passage. Vote:
had been counted in the house
long before and victory assured.
Smell knew this, but refused tt
let the democrats go ahead.
He was getting tired, he said
of having the congress be nothing
more than a rubber stamp for the
president. Here was a piece oi
legislation, one of the most i'm
portant ever to come before the
house. Members had a right Il
have sufficient time to consider it
he contended.
Byrns agreed. He started out
by offering Smell three hours oil
debate, raised it an hour as Smell
because more insistent, and final,
offered him five hours.
That wasn't enough, said Smell
The house should have at least
two days.
Using The Whip
They wrangled and threatened
Byrns had the whip hand. H,
knew that it could be simple mat,
ter to call his rules committee to
gether, report out a special rnl,
for the bill cutting down debate
to a minimum.
Reluctant as he was to use hi
big stick, Smell finally forced hin
to it. A special rule for legisla.
ton always brings forth the cry
of gag" in the house an un
pleasant sound to all leaders.
There'l be lot more said
about this in the future. II be-
gins to look as if the political
truce is definitely off now, Tbs
grand old game of politics seems
due for a lnsty and prolonged
run.

HARD WORK TO
KEEP ORDER in
CONGRESS TALKS
PRESIDING OFFICER SERVING
IN EITHER BRANCH IN
VARIARLY HAS BIG JOB IN
MAINTAINING ORDER
BY HERBERT PLUMMER


WASHINGTON, May IA
good illustration of the state Of
mind now not uncommon in con-
gress is to be seen in how hard the
presiding officers of the senate
and house have to work to keep
order during sessions.
Keeping order, especially in the
house, has developed into man
sized job nj this special session
of congress. Some of the veter-
an observers on Capitol Hill are
Of the opinion that rarely before
has there been such confusion on
the floor.

house these days that it seems al
most part OF the routine. But the

haps. but that's all.
There's nothing so strange,
therefore, about the incident in
the house gallery the other day

and began making a speech. To
some who SIT there and watch the
milling below it probably seemed
not much out Of the ordinary.

the handle of his gavel while in
the chair and the slightest disturb
ance would bring the head of his
gavel down on the stone sounding
board sometimes with an ear-split-
ing effect.
It's different now. Vice-Presi-
dent Garner Is not nearly SO strict
as war Curtis. AS matter Of
fact The democratic whip, Sena-
tor slim Ham Lewis, several
times has felt it necessary to APP
peal to the chair to get order in
the chamber.

TINY CONGRESS-
PLAYS BIG PART
in NEW DEAL =
SECRETARIES TO SENATOR'S
AND REPRESENTATIVES AS
SEMBLR REGULARLY TO
DISCUSS MATTERS
BY HERBERT PL,UMMER
tFil q sAslriAlrA I,renNa


WASHINGTON, May 1.-THE
little congress" that organiza-
ton on Capitol Hill composed Of
the secretaries to senator's and rep
resentatives has rivaled the con-
gress itself in the working out of
the "new deal.'
This group of young nen and
women, who by day labor in con-
gressional offices and once week
at night meet in the caucus room
of the house office building to de-
J, bate the problems before congress
at the moment, in many instances,
have 9slegislated" many weeks
ahead of the real congress,
Prohibition repeal was approved
here long before congress took
final action. !. Beer, the economy
bill and employment relief meas
ures were passed weeks and
months before congress gave its
approval.
AS a matter of fact, not only
has the ''little congress" forecast
the action of the house and senate,
in regard to these measures, but
the distribution of yeas and nays
has been surprisingly the same.
Still Prophetic
Whether its reputation as a
legislative prophet will continue
remains to be seen. At recent
session recognition of Soviet Rus
STA by the United States was APP
proved.
The little congress" is conduct
ed in much the same manner as
the congress itself. Its rules are
about the same as those which
govern the house of representa-
tives. And the. organization is
much the same.
ssMr. Speaker 1T the present, il
George Stewart Of California.
Party leaders" are named to lead
the debate on each question, but
every member usually manages to
''get time" to express his views.
There are few special rules limit
ing debate.
The members of the ''little con-
gress" don't pretend to represent
the views of their congressman.
They may agree with the boss dur
ing the day, but when they ret
into their own sessions the secre-
| taries often take the opposite
side.
There's even little mud-sling-
ing at times.
Men In Majority
Both men and women are eligi-
bic for membership, but at the
present time the majority is men.
cts q good cross section of
the congress ITSELF" says Speaker
u
Stewart.
II has served, too, as a good
training ground for congress. Sew
eral of the secretaries who have
taken prominent parts in the Sit
tie congress- are now serving as
members of the house.
Young Paul Kvale, Of Mime

the house.

OPPOSITION SEEN
in REPUBLICANS
ON MANY ISSUES
MILLS APPEARANCE HAILED
AS STARTING G. o. p. Of
FENsIvE; PLAN FOR NEXT
CONGRESSIONAL RACE
By HERBERT PLUMMER
III. AnsneInted lsreAnl

WASHINGTON May lin
the opinion of many political OBJ
servers in the capital, the long
awaited republican offensive
against the democratic program
and policies has at last been
launched.
1t has been expected now for
some time. The reason it has
been so long delayed, many think,
is that the leaders feared the
country might interpret the move
as one merely to secure political
advantage at the expense Of a
democratic president.
Therefore, politics virtually has
been at standstilI since the be-
ginning of the special session.
With the next congressional cleo
tions more than a year away, the
G. O. p. forces have remained
largely under cover.
The proposal to initiate the cur
rency, however, provided the re-
publicans with an issue which
they couldn't afford to ignore.
Out they came equipped for bat
tie.
For The Records Sake
There was not one of them,
perhaps, who actually entertained
hopes that the Thomas amend
ment, setting up the initiation
machinery, could be defeated. The
leaders knew that not only would
the democrats back the proposal,
but also that votes would be had
for initiation from their own
ranks.
The fight had to be made, how
ever. Everything that they had
warned against in the years gone
by was at stake. The record had
to be kept straight at all costs
The republicans party Had TO be
placed in the position where it
could say to the country, II told
you so" If this attempt to bring
the country back to its feet
should fail.
Thus there appeared on the
scene in Washington none other
than Ogden L. Mills, secretary oil
the treasury in the Hoover adi
ministration. Mills was regarded
as the leader in the anti-inflation
drive.
He had as his chief aid, Sena-
tor Reed of Pennsylvania, who
carried the brunt Of the fight on
the senate floor. With these two
in command. the big drive be-
gan.
Humor--And It's Lack
Nothing was overlooked. For
example, one read on the bulletin
board Of the press gallery of how
Senator Reed, at the request of
house leaders. attended the repub-
lican caucus ON that side of the
capitol and addressed the gather
ings on the subject Of initiation.
On the floor Of the senate one
witnessed little significant cpl
sodes like this: Reed is thunder
ing against initiation. Vanden-
berg of Michigan interrupts, walks
over to him and proffers a hum
bred billion German mark note
now worth Els cents. Reed thanks
him, and begs that he accept in
payment a 10000 Russian ruble
note. The senate laughs.
But some ardent inflationists
fail TO see the humor In these lit
tie incidents. One, in the house,
became so enraged at Mills acti-
witty that he introduced resolu-
ton Ia investigate .sI,abbyiSts''

Playing Safe

There are still good many people in the
world, even in America, who take passive
or hostile attitude toward and now proposal.
1t is easy for honest and intelligent people
to do this. Obvious objections may he
made to any innovation, especially in the
highly debatable fields of economics and
government. The experts themselves often
disagree The show me- critics, as usual,
consider themselves safe and sane perhaps
the only steady and level-headed people in
crazy world.
The trouble with this position is that in
a world going to the dogs SO rapidly as our
world and country have seemed to be doing
lately, the one thing not safe and sane is
standing pat and resisting action. When an
individual or society is sliding down an
apparently bottomless hill, something has
to be done. New, untrled remedies are
dangerous, because you cannot be sure how
they will work. But in such situation
as this country has been in for some time,
the most dangerous thing to do is to do
nothing.
Nature is destructive as we'll as constfue-
tive 1t is all right to let nature take her
course" when she is helping u.s. We have to
oppose her when she is hndering us. HUI
: mainly gets forward largely by outsmarting
nature, as when we make machine or build
house or establish government or enact
remedial law Fortunately great majority
of our people have come to understand and
approve the need of new, bold, often expert
mental, action to counteract the forces that
have been driving us toward destruction.
With confidence and courage, even seemingly
unavoidable methods can often be made to
work.

The funeral of winehsll Smith from his
Pennington home attracted the leading fig
ures of the literary and dramatic world this
week. Connecticut loses an outstanding
citizen in Winchell Smith. While he did not
dwell in our midst the year around. he was
afrequent visitor to Connecticut and con-
tributed to the cultural charm of the town
he chose for his residence. On many an
occasion he engaged in the activities that
are usually ASSOCIATED with the average play
wright. But anybody who could write
'Lightnin - would be sure to act as has
MIR Smith all his life. A good many people
didn't know that Winehell Smith was born
in Hartford, so it was natural fot him when
he had achieved distinction and financial
success to return to the fields he loved the
best, there to indulge in any whim that took
him. The stage is the poorer for his de-
parture.

the world to-day can be FOUND IN
America In an exaggerated form.
The one thing to remember Is that
II IL never safe to judge anything
In America by Its present statei
YOU have to figure on where IFS

SO says l.. p. Jacks, English edu.
Gator, In my American Friends,
one Of the pleasantest and, l think,
shrewdest OF all recent overseas
studies of American life.
DIR Jacks has toured the republic
extensively: no has kept his eyes
open en- route.
He finds America q land Of glar-
ing contrasts. Some Of the things
he saw here moved him to black
despair; others filled him with I'M
bounded hope. American cities, ne
says, display humanity at Its very
best and It's very worst. Beauty and
ugliness, wisdom and folly, nobility
and crime, all are jumbled togeth-
or, he says, and from the mixture
you can draw practically any de-
duction you wish.
All In all, he is inclined to DO
more optimistic than otherwise in
his conclusions. What the world OF
the future Is to be like, he admits,
depends largely on two nations
America and RUSSIA; Russia has
already chosen her course, and
America Is right In the process Of
making a choice now. In conse-
quence II is a tremendously excit.

Europe could probably study q lot
