 REWARDED
 When the president gave Ala bama's veteran Representative John McDuffie a life-job appoint ment on the federal bench re- gently the fact received scant public notice.
 But there was an interesting story behind the reward.
 In the historic special session of 1883, one of the major meas. ures sponsored by the president was the economy bill that slashed hundreds of millions from government payrolls and veterans allowances.
 Speaker Joe Byrns, then maj ority floor leader, was asked o take charge of the measure in tho House.
 But he demurrcti.
 The bill was political dyna- mite. And although, as admin istratlon spokesman, 1t was Byrns' job to handle 1t, he shied away.
 In this dilemma McDuffie came to the presidents rescue.
 Taking his political life in his hands he accepted formal re- sponsibllity for the bill, did a masterful job in ramming 1t trough the House.
 The President was deeply grateful and when federal Judgeship became vacant in Me- Duffie's district he offered him the choice plum in appreciative remembrance of his loyal ser- vice under fire"
 CAREER CENSORSHIP
 There is no brotherhood like that of career diplomats. It makes no difference what the administration in power--repub- llcan or dcmocratic-they stick together.
 Not long ago, Sumner Welles, assistant secretary Of state, but not q career man, was scheduled 10 deliver an address in Atlanta. Shortly before the date of de- livery he was taken i'll, and his speech had to De given by sub stitute.
 But before delivery, what he
The Waterbury Democrat., 1935-02-15

had to say underwent a surgi- cal operation. It contained some references to past state department policies which career diplomats thought reflected on their ex-colleague, Francis White, former assistant secre- tary of state.
 So they cut them out.
 ROPER.CONSCIOUS
 You will soon be hearing more about Uncle Dan" Roper.
 He has taken steps to see that you do.
 Long distressed over the in- conspicuous role he filled in the public eye, the ambitious little secretary of commerce, finally decided to remedy the situation.
 So he employed Harry R. Daniel, one-time newspa perman and more recently high pressure publicity wangler, to make the public Roper-conscious.
 Daniel has the title of "pub. lIcity cO.Ortlinator". Hut his real job Is to publicize Roper.
 According to inside Commerce Department reports, 1t is to be a far-flung campaign, with the press, radio, movies and lecture platform rallied to the cause.
 MERRY-GO-ROUND
 Chairman Francis Riddle, of the National Labor Relations Board, and Lloyd Garrison, his predecessor, have launched q vigorous campaign to build up public sentiment for congress ,sional enactment of the Wagner labor disputes bill which the White House scuttled last year. In an article in tho Survey Graphic, Garrison, now dean of the Wisconsin University Law. school, bitterly assails company unions, demands law banning them. Riddle, in a recent speech in Cincinnati, declared that en. forcement of Section Tn "hay broken down." and called for the enactment of new measures to safeguard the right of workers to bargain collectively. 1, Financed by a PWA grant of $57O,000, government forestry agents have begun a determined fight to eradicate the Dutch elm disease from the northeastern section of the country.

Washington, Feb 15.-Noth- ing in the nations capital is more pitiful these days than tho long and dolorous face of Henry Wallace.
 his friends how much he re- greted the "purging" of tho AAA, what staunch support he had from the liberals he was forced to put on the street.
 Undoubtedly this Is true.
 And this brings out certain Fundamental but interesting dif- ference between Wallace and Big Jim Farley, his direct op- poslte in the cabinet.
 It makes no difference how unfit for office n man may be, Jim will fight for him to the last ditch, provided he has contributed to the cause of de- mocracy. He never. wavers. You can always be absolutely certain where he stands. fi97s
 Wallace, on the other hand, has fine and ideallstic con ccptioh of fitness for public of- flee, has picked an above-aver- age group of men to run his de- partment.
 But under pressure lie will surrender.
 One explanation of Henry Wallace these days may be the secret which some of his best friends are whispering regarding him--that he cherishes presi- denial ambitions.
 Wallace Is young, could wait until Roosevelt filled another term, then he just about ripe for the White House.
 And the Federal Council of Churches, realizing this, has sent him n letter urging that he groom himself for the "succes- sion".
