T0LDBY WILLIAMS
National Geographic SO.
ciety Speaker Describes
3,000.MiIe Trip.

Experiences during 3,000-mile trip
through Great Britain were described
by DR.. Maynard Owen Williams, chief
of the foreign editorial staff of the
National Geographic Society, in an IL
lustrated lecture last night in Consti-
tuition Hall before members of the
society.
The lecturer described such events
as the Grand National steeplechase,
the famous Derby and Royal Ascot
races, the trooping Of the colors in
London before King George, glimpses
Of the famous Henley regatta and such
sports as tossing the caber in Scot
land.
DR.. Williams also described Kew
Gardens, London, which he said
played an important role in the de-
velopment Of the great rubber planta-
tions Of the east. Small rubber trees
were shipped from Brazil to the gar
dens and were there carefully "nursed"
by expert botanists. Later they were
shipped to Ceylon, site of the casts
first rubber plantations. Through the
same gardens quinine was relayed from
Peru to the East Indies.
DR.. Williams also described the port
of London with its 10 miles of harbor.
Two thirds of all that England eats
and drinks is imported, he pointed out,
and most Of the imports are brought
to the London docks
The student steeplechase at Eton
College on founders day, the wedding
Of Prince George, Duke Of Kent, to
Princess Marina, the Scottish games
at Braemer, attended by the King and
Queen; the Runnymeade pageant of
episodes in British history, st. An
drews famous golf course, the launch
ing of the gigantic ship Queen Mary
on the Clyde and the Aldershot tattoo
also were described by the lecturer,

What's What
Behind News
In Capital
Pre- ST de mt Holding
Tight Reins on Pres.
ent Congress.
BY PAUL MALLON.

THIS is the most peculiar Con-
gress we have had in long
time.
i You may have suspected
from glancing at the front
pages lately that 1t adjourned after
the opening session three weeks ago.
Judging from the noise made so far.
no one has been in session except
Huey Long.
The fact Is that both Houses have
been twiddling their thumbs. Sessions
have been held only about half the
time. One reason Is that President
Roosevelt has delayed the submission
of his program, but there are deeper
and more significant reasons.
About one-third of the present Con-
greSs is new. These freshmen hardly
know how to get from their Offices to
the floor and back again without get
ting lost Most Of them so far have
only vague notion what this legis-
lating business is all about. It will be
weeks, If not months or years. before
all of them get on to the ropes.
Another third is made up of Repub-
licans, who are in very docile mood.
They are not going to start anything
All you haze left are the old
time Democrats, pho are the
leaders, and teU old faithful
geysers, like Long and Thomas,
Who spout every hour on the hour.
The result is that Mr.. Roosevelt
and his leaders have the reins on this
Congress tighter than on the last one.
Two-Thirds Not Asleep.
But do not let that fool you. Down
underneath, there Is fire. The two
thirds who do not know how, or do
not care, to express themselves are
not asleep. You can get a tip on how
they feel by noting the way they listen
intently to the Longs and Thomases.
Evening star., 1935-01-19

Last session, when Long spoke, 1t
was good opportunity for every one
to go to lunch. He was a clown. No
one took him seriously. This year he
is a genius. Incredible as 1t may
seem, most good politicians now con-
slider him that; not, of course. in rela-
ton to common sense, to finance or
government, but solely in political
salesmanship. He has promised to
make every man king. No one can
raise him on that unless a promise is
made to make every man a dictator,
but, even so, a kings life is softer.
The freshmen may not know much,
but they know Huey's hooey goes over
big with unintelhgent voters and also
with lot of intelligent ones who have
suffered so much that they are past
calm reasoning.
Mr.. Roosevelt knoWs this situa-
ton and has been handling things
mainly to keep the Congress from
running after the false prophets.
That strategy Dds apparent in all
recent mopes. As things stack up
noD. he Will be successful gener-
ally, although he Dill haue to make
concessions. But don't BY any
means believe everything is as
quiet as it seems along the Poto-
mac.
The mayor of a large Eastern city
went to see Long a few days ago. He
asked the Senator to visit his town
and make a share-the-wealth speech.
Long barked back:
II don't have to go travelling all
around the country. reach my peo-
pie on the radio"
That is the Roosevelt technique, but
you could hardly classify Huey's
harangues as 'fireside talks"
Reports of the resignation of
houser James A. Moffett are getting
to be dime a dozen in the Wash
ington whispering gallery. Even his
friends admit he plans to sever his
connection with the New Deal some
time soon so he may return to the oil
business, but they say he will not quit
until the Senate has confirmed him.
Possible Successorship.
Some have even gone so far as to
pick his successor. A good bet is
Charles Edison, son of the late in
venter, who is State official Of the
National Emergency Council Edison
was associated with Frank Walker in
the drafting of the housing legislation
and has a keen interest in the prob
lem.
