from the U. S. senate because of an attack directed at him by U. s. Senator Augustine Lonergan of Hartford.
 Back In Politics
 Just what federal appointment Dr. Dolan is to get is not definitely known. However, it is reported that it will be most important one and one which will not oblfge him to leave Connecticut. Senator L0ner- gan has long approved of an ap- pointment for Dr. Dolan 'on condi- ton that the post he Is given be outside this state.
 Dr. Dolan, speaking at a gath ering of the Connecticut Federation of Democratic Women's Clubs at Columbia on Saturday declared that he was back in politics "100 per cent" Referring to the patron- age dispute, pr. Dolan declared that he subscribes to the Jackson- ian policy that "to the victor be- longs the spoils.'' He added that there are 100 qualified democrats to every political office and de- Cl0k Cu tAi6b 1tE OCAACVC0 0ClUVCI dt6 should fill them.
 Some weeks ago Dr. Doian an- nouRced that he would be candi- date for the U. s. senatorial nomin- ation three years hence. At that time Senator Lonergan will come up for renomination. The fight be- tween him and Dr. Dolan is ex- pected to be a most heated and in- teresting one.
 Ratification
 Senator Daly, as works relief administrator for the state and chief federal relief agent under the new public works program, will be- come superior to Miss Eleanor Little, who has been in charge of federal relief in Connecticut right along. Miss Little will stay with the federal branch in this state but her powers will be somewhat cur tailed. Senator Daly's salary will be between $5,000 and $6.000. His appointment must be ratified by the lawmakers at Washington, D. C..
 Announcement from the treas ury department to-day was to the effect that the government, itself will spend two of hte four million dollars to be allotted to Connecti- cut out of the $4,S80,0 900 work relief appropriation. The govern. ment will do its spending betterine the U. S. coastguard station at New London, purchasing airplanes ir Connecticut factories, erecting coast guard cutters and other boats and improving communication fa- cilities.

Faith Lost in MIRA

This advice fitted in with Roose- velt's own private doubts as to NRA's value, doubts shared to some degree throughout the admin istration, except by MIRA officials, who were. emotionally devoted to their "holy cause" to the end.
 It did not and was not meant to affect the presidents Fundamental belief thata the nations social economic welfare depends upon q more liberal interpretation of the Constitutoin's commerce clause. But it was accompanied by a con- spicuous absence of any great popular demand for MIRA con- tinuance.
 The Frankfurter group urged wage and hour requirements in government contracts and White House support for the Wanger bill. It also asked for expanded Fed eral Trade Commission power and activity as to trade practcies, en- forcement of antitrust laws, and protection" of states from goods produced in states where low labor standards prevail - all of which. may be in the cards.
 Finally, it proposed a corpora ton profits tax, graduated on the amount of profits, which is hardly likely to become an administration measure at this session.
 Roosevelt himself doesn't know what further steps he will take during this '.stopgap" period. But 1t seems he is definitely through listening to Richberg and Johnson. (Copyright 1885, NEA Service Inc)

dunk the Works"

The group of advisers whose viewpoint Roosevelt finally accept ea was headed by Professor Felix Frankfurter, close friend of Justice Brandeis and of many prominent young New Deal lawyers. The es- sence of their plea may be para phrased as follows:
 dunk the whole works and build up substitutes that can be en- forced and will achieve the objec- lives originally sought by MIRA.
 MIRA isn't being enforced and can't be enforced. Employers arc chiseling on wages and stretching hours and many codes are ignored. MIRA is loaded, both rs to person. mel and established policies, against labor and consumers.
 '::The only way labor standards can be enforced Is by the labor movement itself, which can be strengthened through the Wagner bill.
 The supreme court decision leaves plenty of room for degula- ton 6f industry But it would be foolish to jump into another far reaching experiment without first taking a breathing spell, assaying the situation, and determining need and extent of public demand for 1t.
 ITO stake everything on MIRA now is to imperal most of the rest of the New Deal, for which you can make g much stronger and more popular case"

New York avenue was the building
occupied from 1883 to 1895 by the
Young Mems Christian Association.
Washington's birthday anniversary,
February %, 1872, it became the home
of the Washington Club. which was
organized on october 9, 1871. and
which soon thereafter purchased the
property, upon which there was at
that time an old building, which it
remodeled, and furnished the estab-
lishment very handsomely at cost
said to exceed $4,000. The evening
the club was opened there was great
house warming, which was attended
by many distinguished people.
Old residents, in position to know,
say it was the most prosperous and the
most widely-known club that this city
ever boasted of and had no little snare
in shaping the present beauty and
growth of the city. 1t was composed
of representative men of wealth and
renown from all parts of the country
and the club house was frequently the
scene of gatherings of distinguished
men from all parts of the world.
The club stock was valued at $500
share and was limited to 40 stockhold-
ers. The original incorporators were

the District of Columbia, 1873-1674;

Mr.. Berret was the first president of
the club, which was not political in
any way w. S. Hunting was secretary
and Mr.. Kilbourn treasurer. The club
rapidly became popular, regardless of
the fact that it was dubbed by some
as the Ring Club" 1t existed only
brief seven years, but during that
time its membership might well be
designated as the who's who of Wash
ington, as just the few following names
will show:
Henry D. Cook, Governor of the
