Charged with housebreaking,
Donald Pendergast, 10, who, police
say, was released from Lorton a
few days ago, was held for action
of the Grand Jury after a prelim1-

day. Judge John P. Mcmahon
set bond at $4,000.
Pendergast was arrested last

was caught hiding behind some
folding chairs, the police said.

many members, instead Of desiring
him to recede from his harsh position
through new set Of executive orders
and regulations, desire the opportun-
ity to record themselves on some bill
embodying the liberalizing amend
ments. The reason is clear; with an
eye to approaching elections, they de-
sire credit for effecting the change
instead of having it go to the White
House.
And they have some right to hold
that feeling; many of them were sim
cere in the belief last year when they
gave the President that power that it
would not be applied with such vigor,
and that service-connected cases and
the aged veterans would not be penal
lied as they have admittedly been.
Something will be done, but the exact
method has not yet been determined
upon.
Likewise, despite the fact that for
tactical reasons the new legislative
policy restores only five per cent Of

against the power trust In
with hearings on the code

the MIRA.
Evidently, this column will not per-
NIT any extended discussion of these
subjects, for they are all big news.
The first named. the decision which
verifies the constitutionality of Mime
sofas moratorium law, is truly OF
historic importance, for it discloses
that a majority Of that highest trtb-
unal favors. for the period Of emer-
gency at least, the broad application
of protection of human rights above
the rights of property and above the
sanctity of contracts. 1t brings into
prominence, perhaps for the first time
in our history. the last third of the
oft-quoted reference to "life, liberty
and the pursuit of happiness" Nat
orally it indicates strongly that the
court battles in connection with the
MIRA and other features Of the Pres
ident's recovery program will be fruit :

less. 1t may be remembered that the
decision Is also a glowing personal
triumph for Minnesota's Governor Oh
son.
BY the slender margin of five votes,
administration leaders Of the House
succeeded in putting over a most
drastic rule which safeguarded its
economy program for the session, as
far as the House is concerned. Signs
are, though, that the Senate will adopt
amendments, and in that case nothing
can prevent vote in the House
thereon, despite the leaders desire to
avoid the record vote and the oppor-
tunity to offer amendments.
Unlike the law governing wages
and salaries, which is temporary and
must be re-enacted with each appro-
priation BILL the law affecting vet
Grams and their dependents was made
permanent law, and the President
still holds the wide discretionary
powers he employed last summer to
effect that sharp reduction. Now

the fifteen per cent pay cut that fed
eral workers took last year, leaders
quietly say that within the year the
entire cut will have been restored by
executive action. due to the increased
living costs and as an example to in
dustry to boost pay with the conse-
Quent increase of purchasing power.
Linked with that is the continuing
effort of the AAA to devise practical
plans to apply to the beef and dairy
products in order to improve their
prices to producers. That, represent
ing their toughest problem, is to be
announced within a very few days,
and the busy circle of executives in
hose offices are convinced that by
early spring the hog, corn, beef and
butter fat markets will look decidedly
different than at present.
And linked just as closely is the
Presidents monetary step, forecastine
the continuing drive toward modified
initiation by means of devaluating the
dollar to boost commodity prices and

business and commerce. 1t is only
the conviction and evidence that he
means business in this effort that
keeps Congress in check. BY taking
the initiative, he naturally prevents
the legislative body from considering
and enacting forms Of currency and
credit expansion which he disapprOves.
Nevertheless, some of them are still
frequently discussed. and one of them,
the Frazier bill, is steadily receiving
additional support through signatures
on the petition to discharge the COM
mittee and force it to the floor for

 This sounds like business It will be great news to the who struggling to develop Alaska's mineral resources to the maximum.
 It is to be hoped that in his new mines bureau reform work MT. Ickes will remember that the geological corps of Alaska trimmed to the bone when it should have been enlarged to help in the recovery plan.
 It is to be hoped that the reform MT. Ickes plans in the mining service will be made comprehensive enough to provide real Bureau of Mines service for Alaska, either in direct Federal organization or aid to Territorial organization.
 Alaska has practically mines department. The neighboring Territory of Yukon has a well established mining service with geological parties working there annually and a free Government assay office. Every sample obtained by pros- pector in Yukon can be sent in and tested without the payment of fees for each mineral for which the rock is assayed. In Alaska the prospector must pay-and that is a handicap the who spends his last cent to get his outfit and into the hills. It is the poor who strikes mines and makes them-not the big concerns operating pay ing properties. The big concerns will buy good properties but they do not go into the wilderness and find them.
 In British Columbia are 19 mining engineers and other experts in the mines bureau services British Columbia has thousands of new gold and mineral seekers where Alaska counts them only in tens
 Alaska has only official devoting his time to mining and he is hedged about and handicapped with lack of funds and authority
 Secretary Ickes is on the right track. Let him make his bureau comprehensive and the Territories as well as the States, urge that the Alaska bureau be set up in modern way and Alaska, already giving Uncle Sam gift of $20,O000O0 annually in gold will multiply that gift and do it soon
