What's What
Behind News
In Capital
New Dealers Stir Up
Confusion in Tending
Off Glass.
BY RAUL MALLON.

TINE confusion which the New
Dealers have stirred up around
the new bank bill Ia just about
As good q handmade dust
storm as ever hit this politi-
cally dust ridden Capital.
An acknowledged administration
spokesman broke into public print
anonymously with the announcement
last week that the vital section Of the
administration bill was dead and
buried. A few days later Chairman
Fletcher Of the Senate Banking Com
mittee walked out of President Roose-
velt's office and said the vital section
was still vital and would be passed.
This brought Senator Glass lop.
ing in to see Mr.. Roosevelt the fol-
loiDing day. He emerged iDfth an
announcement which apparently
took both piews. At first neiDsmen
thought they heard him say the
President favored his idea OF de-
pttalising the measure. They sent
out stories to that effect, but later,
at the Capitol, Glass moderated his
assertion. The stories iUere sicitch-
ed betiUeen newspaper editions.
But this moderation was somewhat
offset when Glass subsequently in
formed every one he would handle the
bill on the assumption that the Presi-
dent favored LIBERALIZATION.

STAGGERED HOURS
DECLARED HELPFUL
New Work System for U. S.
Already Aiding, Says Traf-
fic Director.

The program Of staggered hours"
of work for some $4,000 Government
employees. started Monday, is serving
to improve traffic conditions very ma
terially, the Commissioners were in
formed yesterday by Traffic Director
Van Duzer.
He reported that the service Of the
Capital Transit Co. is so per cent
better in that lost time during rush.
hour periods has been cut in half.
From my personal observation !
find that conditions have materially
improved" Van Duzer said. II have
also talked with street car inspectors
in various parts of the city and with
traffic officers and police officials and
they are Of the opinion that the
staggering of hours" has improved
conditions.
The Capital Transit Co. is max
ing changes in its schedules each
day to adjust its time to the new
hours. The operating department re-
ports lost time on several lines has
been cut in half-that is. II they
formerly ran IL minutes late, they
now are running only six minutes
late. The company believes that when
Anal adjustments in the number Of
street cars are made, conditions will
be considerably better.
1.-The bus operators also are ad-
{nstinr their SchedIIleS az fast "a nos
sible to meet the new conditions"
Evening star., 1935-04-20

However. it Is understood Chairman
Fletcher of the committee, an ad-
ministration man, has worn out three
pencils writing an equally long list
of proposed witnesses. These, OF
course. will Offset the Glass list.
The only thing you may be cer-
tain OF in this situation Is that
life iDiH never be dull at the Capitol
as long as Glass and the Ne,D Dedi-
ers are 30 subtly at odds.
Bank Bill Issue Is Clear.
The bank bill provision at issue is
the one creating central credit con-
troll in the Federal Reserve System.
This is the only provision concerning
which there is any dispute. and there
IL as yet no open dispute about that.
All Glass wants to do is to delay
action on that section and shove
through the other sections of the
bill OF course, all the New Dealers
know that If they do not get this
section now they will never get it.
Therefore, the issue Is clear, even
though the participants are not yet
ready to concede 1t.
The r. Z. r. A. recently received
. novel request from Southern
factory, which said: I'VE are about
to have a strike. We request that you
suspend relief to those on strike.
Then the strike will not last long.
This will help your relief situation and
we will both benefit" The answer,
automatically expressed, was: NO"
There is one provision of the new
bank act which bankers would like
to have. This is the one extending
the time for bankers to pay up on
loans from their own banks. Existing
law requires them to pay up BY this
coming June.
An observer watched Mr.. Roosevelt
fend on shrewd questions good
naturedly at q recent press confer
ence, and observed: "Humor Is
Roosevelt's best shield"

this was a Fictitious excuse" to keep
him of the air, Louis K. Sidney
managing director Of WIN. said the
stations standing rule requires that
all speeches must be submitted "a

In this case We were willing to
consider it up to "a hours of the

it did not reach us until about two
hours before the time scheduled for
the broadcast. It was too late to be
even read"
Fish said his speech had been de-
livered by messenger at $50 pm.
