Labor Troubles Sho Weakness of Governments Pau Posito

THE GOVERNMENTS EMPLOYEES ARE UNABLE
TO OBTAIN PROPER ADJUSTMENT OF THEIR
DIFFICULTIES WITH THE GOVERNMENT.
This divergence between the Governments actions
and it's preachmens has been apparent throughout the
recovery program but it is brought into relief by the
labor situation now confronting the country
It is true that just the Government is in
slightly better position in this regard than it has been
formerly due to the earlier action of the Senate and
House in voting for of justice for the Federal
workers.
But as have pointed out there is still long way
to go before those votes are translated into increased
figures on the pay checks.
THE NEED TO IMPROVE THE GOVERNMENTS
STANDING WITH LABOR AND WITH INDUSTRY
IS IMMEDIATE AND PRESSING
THE MOST EFFECTIVE WAY TO BRING
ABOUT THAT IMPROVED STANDING IS BY RE-
STORING THE WAGES OF GOVERNMENT WORK
ERs AND BY ELIMINATING SOME, IF NOT ALL,
OF THE ONEROUs PROVISIONS OF THE
ECONOMY ACTS.

HOW TO EAT
BY Robert Benchley

Not only does it look as if we
were in for an era Of expert
wine-tasting- g-and-spilling, with
connoisseurs hanging over our
shoulders to make sure that our
Chambertin 1921 is just exactly
the temperature Of somebody's
body, but, along with it, we are
being made food conscious.
The gourmetS and food eX-
perts are now in the saddle, and
. man can't pick up his paper
or magazine without reading the
bad news that, all his life, he
has been eating his cup custard
like a barbarian, and that the
old maitre d'hotel at Foyot's
used to say that anyone who
would eat cup custard without
q dash Of kirsch over it, and a
few chives, slightly warmed,
needed into the top crust, would
sell his grandmother to a river
boat captain.
With all the people there are
who claim to know all about
special eating tricks, it is very
funny that one strikes so few
dishes which are really knock
outs. All my life I have been
going from place to place to get
legendary dishes which are sup
posed to make me swoon the
minute they are passed under
my nose, and all my life I have
been pretending to be bowled
over by them. AS a matter Of
fact, I have been able to take
practically all Of them in my
stride.

with all sirens blowing and

Well, it's all right. That's
usually the best that can be

anything to make you fall flat

Congress Should Fix Blame
For Costly Aviation Blunders
By James T. Williams, Jr.

II congress does its full duty
by the American people, it will
not permit it's several investiga-
tions of the tragic fate which
has befallen American aviation
to end with the cancellation of
all domestic air mail contracts,
without due process of law, and
with the needless sacrifice of
the lives of II officers of the
Army Air Corps.
These costly blunders ought
to mark the beginning of a fear.
less, honest and untrammelled
investigation that will explore
the causes and evaluate the ef-
fectS of the debauching of
American aviation to the ext
gencies Of partisan politics and
the aggrandizement of special
interests in the last nine
months.
Congress should begin at the
beginning, and this can best be
done by a joint committee of
the two Houses instructed to
conduct an inquiry solely in the
public interest.
Starting Point
Such an inquiry should start
with the So-called reorganiza-
tion of the Aeronautics Branch
of the Department of Com
merce, which Secretary Roper
began as soon as the last ses-
sion Of Congress adjourned.
Such an inquiry should in
clude those divisions of. the
Post Office Department that
are charged under the law with
the administration of the Fed
eral air mail.
Such an inquiry should ex-
plore the underground political
hook-ups between the air mail
divisions of the Post Office
Department and the Democratic
national committee, and be-
tween the Aeronautics Branch
of the Department of Com
merce and the Democratic ma
tional committee.
Such an inquiry should in
clude all the data that the
Secretary of State can place
at its disposal regarding the
amount of money that foreign
governments are eXpending in
the Federal City through crude
ly camouflaged subsidiaries to
diScredit American aviation
abroad and to, disrupt it's
organization at home.
Such an inquiry should trace
the scheme to bring about the
cancellation of all domestic air
mail contracts, upon the I'M
proven allegation that they were
obtained by collusion and fraud,
to its original sources.
Such an inquiry should ex-
plore and expose the number
and identity of all disgruntled
because unsuccessful bidders for
air mail contracts and their
lawyers and employees now en-
ployed by the Postoffice Depart
ment, by the Department Of
Commerce, or by other Execu-
tive Departments of the Gov

L DUCE TO REPAY
VISIT BY HITLER
New Conversations Expect
ed in Autumn-Nazi Gain
- in Austria Seen.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
ROME, June l6.-Premier Mussolini
was so impressed with the results of
his personal meeting with Chancellor
Hitler at Venice, it was said today,
that he intends to break a precedent
Of 10 years standing and leave Italy
to repay the call.
The return visit will be made In the
Autumn, probably in October. and the
two statesmen will meet in Munich
and in Obersalzberg, where Hitler has
his Summer home.
The significance of the conversa-
tions at Venice, which ended today,
became clearer to European diplo-
matte and political circles after Hit
Ter had returned to Germany and
Mussolini had motored to Riccione.
Dollfuss Successor Seen.
The belief persisted here that the
agreement on the independence Of
Austria means that there will be
general election in that country in
October, and that very likely a Nazi
chancellor will succeed Engelbert DOLL
fuss, who has ruled with the strong
friendship of Italy.
In abandoning the idea Of an
"anschluss" uniting Germany and
Austria, Hitler took step so radical
from the Nazi standpoint that German
correspondents at Venice did not even
report it to their papers.
Nevertheless. there is an opinion in
well informed circles that Hitler
gained more than he lost if.the agree
ment amounts to "hands-off Austria"
policy in its fullest sense.
A Nazi administration in Austria
would mean a relationship with Ger
many so close that it would be an
anschluss in everything but name,
these observers pointed out.
Hitler Victory Seen.
Austria will be with us within six
months" a German in high position
predicted this afternoon on the train
coming to Rome from Venice.
There is no longer any doubt in the
minds of Italian observers but that
Mussolini had a definite plan with
regard to Austria well in advance of
his meeting with Hitler. and that he
had no great difficulty in getting the
German chancellor to agree with him.
Germans have been maintaining that
Austria under the Dollfuss regime is
subject so strongly to Italian infiu-
ence that she really is not an inde-
pendent country at all. From this
standpoint an agreement for strict
independence was regarded as a Ger
man victory.
