Washington Snapshots

! AnybOdy's guess is as good as an
other today as to what Congress will
, do before it adjourns. The only GER
tainty is that it likely will be a
prolonged session, the final weeks
filled with hectic turmoil. One of
the most interesting phenomena is
the attitude of the national legisla-
tors toward recovery Opening the
session with many new members
who had made wild tpromises back
home and were branded as radical"
in temperament. the Congress is
evincing cleareut signs of laying
aside reform legislation in favor of
that which will put people back to
work. This is a reaction against
loose experiments. Stated simply,
Congress has found that reform and
experiments don't fill empty stom-
achs either on the nations farms or
in the industrial areas, and there is
a tendency 10 follow sound princi-
pies.
This trend is noticeable in many /
directions. There is little enthusiasm ]
behind the amendments to the AAA /
which would further broaden the
dictat0riaI authority of the Secre-.
tary' of Agriculture Donald r.

ple in glowing terms things that
cannot be accomplished will con-
tinue to nave their following. !.
This is largely the reason why
there is less steam behind the Ad-
ministratiOn's drive for reforms at
this session of Congress and more
emphasis on recovery, why sound
Democratic thinkers at the Capitol
are warning against 'leftist" legis-
lation. why the Brain Trust" has
been more or less isolated. Their
scheme were all right so long as the
United States was drifting in the
land of fantasy. Now, despite
Coughlin and Long and the others,
there are definite indications that
the people are tired of playing with
trick legislative panaceas and want
soun1 doctrines which have led to
recovery in the past. Social re-
forms can wait.

WILLIE BRYAN TO
GET
CONTRA C

New York-Willie Brtant's instant
success over WEAF as an orchestra
director, announcer and vocalizer
brought the new three-in-one idol an
extra contract when the Victor Record
Company, who are noted for being
very particular about just who make
their records, secured Willie and his
band for four records Immediately
after his New Years day NBC ap-
pearance.
The four songs recorded by Willie
and his Harlem Ambassadors Of
Rhythm" Ito appropriate the phrase
used by Allan Kent, official NBC an
%nouncer, over the red network) are
Throwing Stones at the Sum-, cover
Because We're Through, written by
Willie and Leonard Reed, "Viper's
Moan, an ultra hot number composed
by Willie and members of his band,
which is a broadcast favorite, and
Chimes In the Chapel.
These records will be ready for the
public within another week, according
to announcements from the Victor
Studios.
Willie has been greatly pleased and
amused rel the fan mail that has
already come in from his Radio City
appearances. Two girls from a small
Pennsylvania town wrote him to play
them "a couple Of tunes, and listed
nine, then said if he couldn't get them
all in n broadcast, he could split
them up until he completed the list.
Wlllie's comment was that n nice
thing about the numbers requested is
that they are also popular with many
other fans, so much so that he plays
some of them at each broadcast any
way. That goes especially for 'Viper's
Moan, Willie's own work, which is
also a faVorite of OBC studio officials.

FEDERAL EMERGENCY RELIEF
ADMINISTRATION
Nation Follows Presidents Lead In
Constructing Swimming Pools,
Fairgrounds, and Recreation
Buildings

Harry L. Hopkins, Administrator
Of the Federal Emergency Relief AID
ministration received a report this
week from Jacob Baker, Work Divis-
ion Chief, estimating that 1000 play
grounds and swimming pools have
been built throughout the country dur
ing the CWA program last winter and
the subsequent summer months Of the
FERA work program.
The whole Nation caught the new
spirit Of the work and play order and
went in for this type of r~ecreational
construction in q big way. Tens of
hundreds of Negro workers got jobs,
and for years to come they and their
wives and children, like all the citizen
ry will also enjoy these new breath
ing spots, health and play centers
created during the depression.
Pictures which decorate the walls of
the eighth and ninth floors Of FERA
Headquarters give mute, but rue and
inspiring testimony to the beauty of
appointment of these pools, located
in townships, villages, and cities. Re-
production Of scenes portraying child
rem swinging on the outdoor play ap-
paratus, young and old splashing in
the inviting waters of the ~glistening
pools are seen on every hand.
In these projects are reflected, with
out regard to race or condition, the
Presidents own love of the swimming
pool, where he takes a "dip" every
evening. The State of New York re-
membered its former governor and
the No. l Trustee of the Warm
Springs Foundation, as well as the
first citizen of the Nation, by donat-
ing last year to President Roosevelt
this indoor swimming pool at the
White House. Now, the Nations
President has multiplied ten fold New
York's beneficence with the complete
approva Of Administrator Hopkins

JAPAN PLANS
 TO INCREASE

Huge Appropriation, Over Five Years, Sought for
 Land, Air Forces

TOKYO, July 26.-A five year plan, costing nine hundred million yen, about $261 ,0O0, 900, for~modern- ization. improvement and enlarge ment of the military, land and air forces. has been drafted by the War Office and General Staff and submitted to the Cabinet for inclu- sion in the budget, 1t was learned today
 The plan calls for an annual ex- penditure of approximately $52.000,- GOO and would require an appro- priation in addition to the regular military funds. it is pointed out.
 The plan is made necessary, it is pointed out, because Japan's air force is inferior to those of other nations and also the fact that Japan is extremely vulnerable from the air.
 The program plans will be con- centrated on land equipment for the first two years and the air forces the last three years.

PRIMITIVE AGAINST
 MODERN MACHINE
Mussolini Will Resort to Chemicals if Combat
 Goes as Anticipated

ADDIS ABABA, July 26.--Night attacks, swift and silent rushes. with rifle butts and spears instead of bullets, will be the tactical mainstay of the Ethiopian warriors if Italy carries out her heralded invasion.
 Fear of these tactics, it is be- lieved here, led Italian Il strate- gists to resort to chemicals which they assert will eat through heavy leather shoes and wreck havoc among the bare-footed Ethiopians.
 However, observers here who are weighing the chances of Hailie Sell assig's primitive fighting men aganst Mussolini's mechanized high ly polished war machine are in clined to believe Italy overestimates the importance of their new chem teal weapon.
 The Philippians, like the Boers in the South African Transvaal, prob- ably will rely almost entirely on guerilla warfare, fighting as their ancestors fought for more than 5000 years, lying hidden by day and letting the Italians advance with little more resistance than sporadic sniping. then trust to the darkness to cover their creeping approaches for wild screaming at tack and hand-to-hand conflict at which they excell.
