The controlling body of such pub

THE NATIONAL
GOVERNMENT
By CONG. JOHN PAUL KvALE

Carrying four billion eight hundred
millions in work relief and direct re-
lief money, the Administrations gil
gantic appropriation measure was
passed and sent to the Senate all in the
space of two days. Faced with the
double threat of revolt against the
original gag which House leaders had
planned to apply, the insurgents with
in the Democratic party and the meet
ing of House progressives from all
parties secured some modification,
opening the lesser important part of
the measure to amendment and de-
bate.
Angered over the leaders decision
to deny any time to study, receive in
formation, discuss or offer amend
ments to such a vast bill, the insur-
gents carried their fight through the
Democratic caucus and did succeed
in partial modification of the rule. AS
a result, one significant amendment
was added, but on a roll call vote,
after a verbal spanking by one of the
leaders, the House reversed itself and
threw the amendment out. For the
first time in it's history the House
paused in the midst of its considera-
ton of the bill to listen to a message
from the Chief Executive urging adop-
tiOn of the bill.
The Senate, it appears, will take
more time in the study of the meas
ure. What amendments and changes
will result from that study cannot be
foretold.

While Senator Nye's Senate NUM-
tions investigation continues to roll
up it's record of the wartime duplicity
and greed of the corporations making
munitions. chemicals and materials,
activity of the House Military Affairs
committee is arousing much attention
here. The committee has opened
hearings on Chairman McSwain's bill
to eliminate industrial profits in time
of war, and literally drafting industry
and capital.
The House committee will hold ex-
tensive hearings, and is going into
the matter with the firm intention of
actually enacting such a measure.
The President has already shown his
interest in the proposal, which in the
years since the war has never gotten
past the conversational stages. Nat
urally the problem will be first of all
that of seeing that an effective bill
does eliminate profits, and does not
instead actually guarantee profits in
time of war. Such a bill would of
arse be infinitely worse than
nothing if it held out an inducement
of that sort to industry, making war
conditions preferable to those in times
of peace, when profit is no sure thing
to any corporation except those bles-
sed with complete monopoly.

Sunday Flyer Delayed.

Sunday evening the 7 o'clock pas

after ~ midnight; on the way up from

blocked near Henriette by derailed

back up to the cities again and come
up by way of Mora; thus the pas

To make the week more eventful,
the House took just one day to con-
slider and pass a bill providing for
terms governing the issue Of 45,0O0,-
100000 in government bonds. 1t SUBJ
stantially increases the present legal
limit for securities, and provides for
issuance of tax free 'baby bonds" in
small denominations.
The House leaders were successful
in preventing the outbreak Of seri-
Gus attack upon the tax-exempt fea-
ture of the bonds only by ruling twice
that the amendments offered by Rep.
Boileau, Wisconsin Progressive, elm
mating the tax-free privilege, were
rot in order. That despite the fact
that group of Representative has
for several years been endeavoring 10
have this question brought up, and
particularly since the tremendous Of
ferings of the present administration
to meet the costs of the New Deal and
the emergency expenditures which
have brought relief to the unemployed
and the destitute. Observers insist
that had such a vote been permitted,
a strong majority of the House would
have voted to strike the privilege
There is some doubt regarding the
ability of Congress to proceed with
such program without having the
at the same time But it is becoming
evident that sentiment is growing to
the extent that it is one of the issues
which will soon be pushed into the
fore ground.
