Washington, Jan. SIN Washing
ton, you have to know your initials.
Once there was some hope that the
New Deal emergency agencies would
continue to be known by their full
names. But the abbreviation fad be-
gun by "NRA" has spread to the
point that II you say Federal Home
Owners Loan Corporation" instead Of
"FHOLC," nobody knows what you're
talking about.
The town was torn between the
obvious economy Of initials in speech
and writing and the obvious wear and
tear Of memorizing them and keeping
track Of what they stood for.
There's no reason why out-of-town
folk should be asked to be able to
reel off the alphabetical combina-
lions, but the system does seem to
have the makings Of good parlor
game and in some company It's un-
doubleday impressive II you can refer
Familiarity to the "FDIC" or the
"PAB."

Well Travel in America

Well Travel in America
Railroad men, scanning the horizon
for new business, believe 1894 viii be
. banner year for rail passenger
traffic.
The main reason assigned is lower
rail rates, an apparent tightening Of
the business clouds, dissipation OF
fear, the general desire Of people tc
60 places after sticking by the home
fireside and the popularity Of con-
ventions which win be held at vari-
Gus resort centers.
The forecast seems reasonable
enough In view Of the recent trends
both toward heavier rail- traffic and
toward larger volume Of travelling by
all the media available. America has
been staying pretty close to home
these last few years. as witness all
kinds Of data on the subject, but 1t
i regaining its natural disposition to
60 places and see things. ..~
Aiding this, too, will be one item
which the railroads do not mention.
This Is the depreciation In the value
Of American currency abroad. The
same pressure which drove many
American expatriates home when the
eagle began to slump In foreign ex-
change, will keep them on this side
Of the water rs long as the situation
persists.
As result, many persons who nor
mally travel abroad will do their
travelling at home this year, where a
dollar will pass for face value in buy
ing transportation, food, shelter
and souvenirs. ."...

The Right View

It would be good thing II success
ful candidates for public office every
where could adopt the attitude with
which Fiorello H. LaGuardia assumed
his duties as mayor Of New York. Mr..
Laduardia announced bluntly that he
was not going to try to be "a good
fellow"
AN elected public official under
our form Of government must be un-
grateful" he said. II have many
friends who worked hard for my elec-
ton. I cannot appoint them to Of
flee, because they don't happen to be
fitted to hold It. You can't be q good
fellow and . good mayor"
Hero Is most excellent common
sense. II more mayors had the same
idea, our municipal governments gen.
orally would be run with great deal
more Of efficiency and q great deal
less Of expense.

That something pretty substantial
actually has been done to better the
condition Of the farmer Is shown by

Monies crop report for 1888, recently
issued IN Washington.
This report shows that the value Of
tho nations farm produce in 1888
Jumped fully @l,oooO oo, 900 over the
figures for 1892.

slightly better than $4,000, 600, ooo-as
compared with ! 1882 valuation Of
approximately 42,s7o. O0o, 600.
It IS worth remembering, too, that
this increase took place In spite Of
diminished production-or, perhaps.
u the farm doctors at Washington
are correct, because Of 1t. Total VOL

Democrats Put Up Job
to Trap Fess Into
Starting Fight.
BY PAUL MALLON.

" HE generalization of Repub-
lican Senator Fess was a
put-up job by group OF old
L Democratic meanies.
They deliberately led him
on to attack the administration and
then dropped a prepared sandbag on
his head, leaving him f1guratively and
politically cut and bleeding. while
they all had a good hearty laugh.
The plot started when Democratic
Floor Leader Robinson decided to re-
lease his pent-up enthusiasm for the
new deal in a speech commemorating
its first anniversary.
He deliberately couched portions
OF the speech so as to arouse one
OF tho Republican Sendtors-the
Indiana Robinson or FeSs.
Also, it was pre-arranged that
when either Robinson or Fess re-
sponded the prepared sandbag should
be released by the Democratic sub
leader, Jim Byrnes.
