NAzI WEDDINGS FALL SHORT OF
 OFFICIAL COAL
By RUDOLF JJosTEN

BERLIN, May 1.-Nazi eugenics experts are viewing with alarm the failure of 100000 couples to marry.
 The consider the world war as partly responsible for hitch in the -be fruitful and multiply program because a great decline in marriages is expected after 1886.
 One of them, Dr. H. Burgdoerfer, says the low birth rate during the war is an "unconquerable obstacle in maintaining the present record trend to marriage registry offices"
 Many Thousand Missing
 This trend led to 366,l74 mar riages between May, 1883, and the end of 1894, with the aid of matri- monial loans inaugurated by Adolf Hitler as main pillar of his re- population scheme. The figure is cited as proof of the plans success.
 But Dr. Burgdoerfer finds that another 3O0,00O couples are miss ing"--they should have married, but didn't"
 Adverse economic conditions are blamed: These marriages were due in 1894 but had to be postpon- ed because of the depression" he maintains.
 He expects the run on the regis try offices to continue until the second half of 1936, when the pre- war resources will be exhausted" and a rapid decline in weddings will set in.
 Try To Forestall Drop
 Unable to fill the gap of the war years, during which births drop ped from an average of 2,000 900 annually to fewer than one million. racial experts now are concen- trating on encouraging fruitful ness among newlyweds. Their idea is to forestall another serious drop in the birth rate after 1886 when "the few war chil- drens will begin to marry. fFsou<;,a,,oa ou Douo TUol

HOUSE RADICALIsM MILD

Equally interesting and alive with possibilities is the fact that on this issue the extreme radicals were routed completely.
 For a long time, Democratic leaders had been suffering from an obvious case of jitters arising prin- cipally from the widespread agita- tion for the Townsend plan. Just what happened is not yet clearly apparent, but there is food for thought in the fact that the Town senders polled something less than half the votes they had been claim ing-just 56 out of a total house membership of 435.
 Does this mean that the wave of radicalism which recently has en- gulfed so large percentage of the public is receding? And if it does mean that, what are the inferences with respect to Senator Long, Father Coughlin, Upton Sinclair and the other Left-Wing leaders? Again, the circumstances pose the question but leave the answer to the future.
 The hard fact is that a House widely advertised as containing more wild men, than any other in history, heralded from the mo- ment of its election as likely to solve the pendulum far over to the left, has given only smatk ring of minority support to the leftist movement which many DO iticians had thought most dangerous.

House GiUes Left Movement
 Only Smattering Of Support
By BYRON PRICE

 r1rors yJyo -t,;,, L,,,l

(Chief of Bureau, The Associated
 Press, Washingson)
 From the political viewpoint. no recent event at Washington de- veloped more interesting angles .ssaan House consideration and pas sage of the Social Security Bill.
 The most obvious thing was that for the first time this session, the big Democratic majority marched forward with firm precision, pro- viding overwhelming margins of safety for what MT Roosevelt had asked.
 The exact significance of this is disputed, for many factors were in- volved in the Administration vic- tory But it at least raised ques- ton whether the President was not regaining the leadership which had been so much discounted of late, and might not be expected here after to exercise a more direct con- trol over his Party in Congress.
 Of course only time can provide the answer. Many important Ad- ministration tests still are to come Until the moment arrives for ac- tion on such measures as the bank ing, MIRA. and utilities bills, it probably will be impossible to tell whether the Social Security vic- tory really was significant, or only a flash in the pan.
