0BEYING alleged directions from
" the yacht on which President
Roosevelt was fishing in Florida wa
tiers, the majority in the house refused
to accept the restrictions injected in
the work relief bill and sent it back
to conference to have these removed.
The restrictions Objectionable to the
administration were those requiring
senate confirmation Of administrative
officers Of the program and that In
loans and grants to states at least one
third of the money should be expended
for direct labor. The latter require.
ment. according to Secretary Ickes and
others, would result in the exclusion
Of rural Identification, slum. clearance
and similar projects.
Defending the move to send the bill
back to conference, Buchanan of, Geor-
gia said: "The President is assuming
responsibility. All we ask is to give
him a bill that he can work on in shift
ing from dole to employment"
In replying to Buchanan, Represent
alive Robert Bacon (Rep., N. W con-
tended that the labor provision was
needed in order to kick out pet local
projects" and afford as much direct
relief Of unemployment as possible.
Congress has reached a pretty low
ebb," declared Minority Leader Der.

can't even pass on a conference report
without receiving orders from the
Chief Executive"
TOR the second time the United
= States Supreme court reversed the
convictions and death sentences Of two
Of the Scotrsboro' negroes who were &C
cused Of assault On two white girls.
The court held that since negroes in
Alabama are not permitted to serve
on juries, they n denied equal pro-
lection Of the laws" in violation of the
Fourteenth amendment. It declared
the state court erred in not quashing
the indictments.
This was a big victory for the COL
ored race, but in another decision by
the Supreme court the negroes were
the losers. The tribunal ruled that
the Democratic party in Texas is a
voluntary association, not subject to
control by the state legislature, and as
such may exclude colored persons from
voting in its primaries
