BEHIND THE SCENES
IN WASHINGTON
. eY RODNEY BUTCHER

I ana financial organizations pos
sessing assets Of more than 81
billion dollars
Something of the same sort
from the president might 60 a
long way toward furtherance OF
his pet measures.
NOBODY has been surprised to
L Y see large pressure organiza-
ton such as the American Legion
assure the passage of some bonus
legislation this session, though
it's still toss-up whether the
A. F. of l.. can push through
such an advantageous measure
as the Wagner labor disputes
bill. y IT, ;. i3r
But conservative lobbies helped
hold up the Work-relief bill for
months and, to minor extent,
at least, modified the executives
program.
! The food and drugs bill, de.
signed to protect consumers and
favored by the White House. has
very likely been ditched-by patent
medicine lobbyists and represen-
tatives of food and other indus
tries who seek to emasculate 1t
by amendments.
THE AAA amendments are re.
y garded by Davis and Secre'
tery Wallace as vital to AAA's
continuance, but lobbyists for
food industries and farmers have
made football of them.
Transportation legislation is
doubtful, thanks to fights put
up-one way or another-by rail-
roads, trucking companies and
air lines.
Lobby tactics include not only
attempts to defeat bills by direct
vote, but more often to delay and
to load down measures with con-
fusing or hamstringing amend
ments; on the general theory that
important measures are frequent.

"PAINT UP AND CLEAN UP"

Next week is national Improvement week
-"Clean Up and Paint Up Week'-the
week devoted to cleaning up residence anu
business property, to painting and improv-
ing property, to community sanitation and
general betterment In Hendersonville the
boosters are hoping there may be SPECIAL
observance of the week-and of several
weeks acknowledgements there is special
need and demand right now for this pro-
gram. ;s},-u.,, g..
Faced by almost certain indications of
summer business that will tax the capacity
of the community and the surrounding
country, there is great need not only for
cleaning up, painting and Improvement to
make the town and section more attractive
and satisfactory to visitors, but also the
demand for expansion of accommodations
for Summer residents and transient guests
Therefore, this campaign should include
in addition to such work as is usually
MAPPED out for "Clean Up and Paint Up
Week." the repairing of old buildings
tuouSHOuI tHe to"H anu country. All
buildings that can be placed in good con-
dition by repairs, painting or whatever i'm
provements are necessary, can be turned
into assets instead of liabilities They can
be made to bring income during the Sum-
mer.
Careful consideration should be given to
these matters by our people-and at once.
Prompt action is necessary. Many have
been doubtful about business developments
and have delayed too long. 1t is reasonably
certain that big volume of business is in
store for this part of the country during
the next four or FIVE months, regardless OF
nationwide conditions.

Rabies is one of the most fearsome words in the

THE RIGHT OF FREE SPEECH

We are in hearty agreement with the Secretary
OF the Interior, Mr.. Ickes in what he said in his
address to the members Of the Associated Press on
the freedom of the press. "Free economic enter
prise, free political institutions and the free speech
of which the free press is part, are one and in
separaoie Ordinary man is not SO constituted that
ne can think or speak for himself when he is hone
lessly dependent for his daily bread upon the tyr
amy of superior-industry or the tyranny of su-
per-state."
Mr. lckes pointed out, however, the growing ten
dency OF public officials to endeavor to suppress
not alone the right of the press to express opinions
freely, but the other rights Included in the same
constitutional guarantee, the freedom Of individual
citizens to speak their minds and of groups "peace
ably to assemble" =.
why ne asked, Should We be SO fearful Of
haf-oaked ideas?' The right to hire a hall or to
go on the air ought not to be denied to any
or group. Suppression makes martyrs. Surely, as
Mr.. lckes pointed out, our Institutions are not so
poorly grounded that they may not be exposed to
sne Dphetlngs of criticism, even if that be unbound
ed and Incorporate. E5,&
ideas however alarming, are Ike dynamite they
are dangerous only when confined.-Franklin Press.

So while Ford was in the kitchen
getting his highball, Lila ran over
to whisper to Delicia.

said Delicia calmly. "But don't worry
lamb. About three weeks from now,
you'd have to tell him that you aren't
interested in marriage, anyway. And
this will work better than thinking up
some reason why a lovely little thing
like you should spurn matrimony."
"Is-getting a husband-always as
complicated as that?" asked lila her,
eyes big with apprehension.

ion. "But the same bag of tricks will
catch any man alive. I've married
three, got the fourth painting for a
chance to propose, and could have
married couple dozen. others. Same
tricks every time"
ooh, if you'll teach me-Ill do any
thing in the world for you'll" breathed
Lila.
"Ssh! I'll teach you. Here comes
Ford"
Then as Ford came into the room,
she went on as if she were finishing
something she had been saying while
he was in the kitchen.

Delicia could wear that sort of cloth

this time, because Delicia started right
in by asking Mr.. Hendryx about spray

and about treating some old pine trees
and about what to do for the soil of
her flower beds, there seemed to be
plenty to talk about. Ford got him

you're incorrigible," he said, shak-

"You see Lila, the trick is never to
let man know what you are really
thinking. Always spread layer OF
nonsense over your actual thoughts
It's simple once you get the trick
of it. Isn't it, Ford?"
"Uhh," said Ford, around mouth
full of sandwich. "Don't feed babies
strong meat. I'll bet you new
toothbrush Papa Hendryx won't let
his little cherub associate with the
wicked resorters."
"You mean you hope he won't"
Lila heard herself say-and went hot
with embarrassment at their laughter.

clever. Just amusing"
els the truth clever?" asked Lila.
"Too Often" said Delicia. "Tell you
what I'll do, Lila. I'll let your father
get used to me and see that I'm harm
less, and sell him on the idea Of our
being friends. Shall II"
So when it was time to 60 home,
Lila was crowded into that roadster
seat again with Ford and Delicia, only
this time it was she who sat in the
middle, because she was the ittlest,
and she was so thrilled to be that close
to Ford that she could hardly breathe.
And when they rolled up to the
