FINAL ACTION
DUE BY END
OF WEEK
Senate Members Held
In Mood to Yield on
Disputed Points

House and Senate conferees on
the Government employe leave
bills are expected to begin their
session to iron out their differ
ences Monday, it was learned to-
day.
This gave rise to the belief
that final congressional action
might be accomplished on the
measures by the end Of next
week.
Representative Robert Rams
peck Cd, Of Georgia, chairman
of the House Civil Service Com
mittee and head Of the House
confereeS, said he believed his
group would be ready to meet
with the Senators by the end Of
this week. Meanwhile, however,
it was learned that Senator Ken
meth Mcclellan Cd, Of TenneS-
see, an important Senate con-
feree. will remain at home due
to a cold until Monday.
It was the expectation of Sena-
tor William Bulow CD, of South
Dakota, chairman Of the Senate
Civil Service Committee, that
Senator McKellar and Senator
Wallace H. White (R0, of Maine.
the other Senate conferee, will be
prepared to attend the conference
meeting Monday.
The House Committee chairman
expressed the belief today that the
conference will not be long in
reaching an agreement. He said
that it should not take long for
each side to determine Just how
much the other side will yield and
when that Is understood, the mat
ter Of an agreement on the several
items in dispute should be obtained
in short order.
1t has been indicated by Senate
members that their representa-
tives in the conference are in mood
to yield partially to the House on
some of the controversial points,
but Senator McKellar, who was re-
sponSible for the Senate's action
in reducing the benefits provided
for the employees in the House bill,
has remained silent. Much will de-
pend on how much Of a concession
the House can gain from the Sen
ate.

Our Army's peace.time cas-

proportions, judging from the
way General HagOOd was re-
lieved Of his command and
General BOIIeS also was threat
ened for critiCizing the New

right when he said, "Theirs not
to reason why, theirs but to
do or die"
The Administration spOkeS-
men say that Army officers
should never have anything to
do with politics. Well, that
feIIa George washington made
q fairly good success Of it.
Just goes to show how things
have improved due to the New
Deal. The old Army game
used to be passing the buck;
now they are playing It with
Generals.

the New Dealers are having
with HagOOd?
