FIGHT TOF|LL
PETITION
House Vote Is Assured
On Farm Initiation
Measure
BY WILLIAM S. NEAL
international News Service

Facing an issue packed with po-
litical dynamite, House leaders To-
day looked to President Roosevelt
for aid in defeating the Frazier
Lemke 5000 million dollar farm
initiation bill. "
A decisive test was assured as
the result Of the action Of 218
members, a majority, in signing
a petition to discharge the Rules
Committee from consideration Of
the measure.
Representative Lemke (R). Of
North Dakota, co-author Of the
bill, planned to exercise his right
to move on May II to discharge
the committee, which has pigeon.
holed" the bill for months.
Straight Fight Proposed
While action might be delayed
by parliamentary maneuvers, lead
erS indicated that they will meet
the issue squarely.
The possibility Of an open break
between Mr.. Roosevelt and the
Rev. Charles E. Coughlin and his
National Union for Social Justice
was seen. The political fate Of
many House members also may
rest on their vote.
Sponsors Of the measure denied
that it is inflationary. Under its
terms, q revolving fund Of 5000
million dollars would be author
lied to refinance 5000 million dol
lars of farm mortgages at ~ per
cent annual interest and III per
cent principal repayment.
# bonds could not be sold, Fed
eral Reserve notes would be issued
with farm lands as backing. Spon-
sorS declared there is no danger Of
uncontrolled initiation because IS
suance of new money would be
limited to $25 for each person.
Senate May Block It
While Lemke predicted passage,
Representative Boland of Penn
sylvania, Democratic whip, de-
clared the measure WouIo pc
beaten. Senate leaders have in
dicated that they would prevent
consideration even If the House
approves it. "
With the Administration op-
posing the measure, Father
Coughlin was expected to launch
q drive for it. Completion Of the
petition was made possible by
Representative Berlin CD Of
Pennsylvania, who said Cough
Inns opposition was partly respon-
sible for his defeat in the State
primary.
For months the radio priest"
has been campaigning for the
measure and attacking Admins
tration leaders for preventing q
vote in the House.
On several occasions, when the
petition to bring the bill to q vote
was near completion, Democratic
leaders persuaded members to
withdraw their names.

the payment twas a retainer for

The Criminal Code prohibits
Government officers from accept
ing compensation from q private
firm in relation to matters in
which the United States is inter-
ested. The Manganese Corpora
ton was active at that time to
prevent Congress from imposing
a tariff on manganese imports.
McMulllen is the Colonel who
was found guilty by a court-mar-
tial here of accepting two round

self in court, Rosenberg asked
that the case be continued until
next Friday, on the ground that
congressional duties" detained
his client.
Judge Duncan replied he knew
something about Congress, that 1t
did not convene until noon and
that there was no reason why
Zioncheck could not have ap-
peared at 9 a. m. He added that,
in his court, the Representative
occupied exactly the same position
as any other defendant.
L. Weinstein, the bondSman
whose 5000 has been annexed to
Alexandria's Golfers. told the
court he had tried all night and
this morning to locate the Seattle
legislator, but had been unsucceSS-
full. The court then told Vein
stein he should have arranged an
agreement with Zioncheck before
putting up the 5000.
Details of Seizure
The only witness was Corporal
Gilmore. Among the absorbing de-
tails Of the seizure Of the Repre-
sentative, the officer mentioned
that Zioncheck was not speeding
when he first spotted him on the
Mt. Vernon Boulevard.
The Representative later eX-
planned to him, Gilmore testified,
that he began to speed when he
saw the police motorcycle, believ-
ing the "cops" were after him
again.
Upon hailing the fast-traveling
automobile over to curb, the
officer asserted, zioncheck ex-
claimed:
"When are you police
men going to leave me alOne?"
Much Every abusive language"
found an outlet through his quar-
rvs mouth, Fillmore told the court,
and he was forced to run in" the
Congressman.
On the way to headquarters, ELL
more added, Zioncheck playfully
stopped his car with a jerk at
stop" signs. laughing when the
officer had difficulty in checking
his motorcycle behind his automo-
bile. and even exceeded the speed
limit while on his way to be
booked.
Zioncheck had considerable diff
ficulty in raising the 5000 col
lateral for his release.
Finally the money was pledged
by a professional bondsman after
the Congressman had been de
tanned in waiting room at police
headquarters until the money was
presented.
Bride With Him
Ironically, his bride, the former
Miss Ruby Louise Nix, 81, the
former PWA Stenographer, who
told reporters on her wedding day
she would try to curb zioncheck's
apparent mania for speed, was in
the car with him when Motor
cycle Patrolman George Fillmore
stopped him. She waited out
side police headquarters while
her husband was inside making
hurried calls to friends to post
the money for release.
Zioncheck told headquarters at
taches he was en- route to Flor
ida on his honeymoon, but his
wife stated, they said, they were

We don't know who the author
OF the following dissertation is.
but she's obviously a woman-and
a smart one, too. Sounds some
thing like some Seattle woman
I know. Such an attack deserves
q defense. And the best defense
is an offense.
Defenders of the so-called
stronger but less deadly sex,
please step forward. The line
forms to the right.
"MEN'
Men are what women marry.
They have two feet, two hands,
and sometimes two wives. but new
er more than one collar or one
idea at a time. Like Turkish
cigarettes, men are all made of
the same material, the only diff
ference is that some of them are
better disguised tan others.
Generally speaking, they may
be divided into three classes:
HUSBANDS. BACHELORS and
WIDOWERS. An eligible bachelor
is man OF obstinacy, entirely
surrounded by suspicion. Hus-
bands are of three varieties, pri-
yes, surprises and consolation pri-
yes. Making a husband out of a
man is one of the highest plastic
arts known to civilization. 1t re-
quires science, sculpture and COM
mon sense. faith. hope and charity,
especially charity.
1t is a psychological marvel that
a soft, fluffy. tender, violet SEEM
ed sweet young thing like a wom-
an should enjoy kissing a big,
awkward, stubby-chinned, tobacco
and bay rum scented thing like
man.
If you flatter a man it frightens
him to death, and if you don't
h. is bored to death, If you permit
him to make love to you, he gets
tired of you in the end and if you
don't he gets tired in the begin
ming.
If you believe everything he
tells you, you soon cease to inter-
est him and If you argue with
him in everything, you soon cease
TO charm him. If you wear gay
eclcrs, rouge, and a startling hat,
he hesitates to take you out; and
if you wear a little brown toque
and a tailor-made, he takes you
out and stares all evening at 2
woman IN gay colors, rouge and
startling hat. If you join him in
his gaities and approve him in
his drinking, ne swears you are
driving hin to the devil, and if
you don't approve of his drinking
and urge him to give up his gai-
ties, he VOWS you are driving him
to the devil.
Il you are of the clinging-vine
type, he doubts you have brain;
and If you are a modern advanced,
and independent woman, he doubts
whether you have heart. If you
are silly he longs for bright
mate, and if you are brilliant and
intellectual, he longs for a play
mate. If you are popular with
other men, he is jealous. and if you
are not, he hesitates to marry a
wall flower.
