Mr. Morgan left the midget at home
this year, but, in all other respects his
circus was bigger and better than ever.
A 40-room suite was required to house
it at hotel.
His army OF performers carried
brief cases filed ,Oith statements
OF every subject Imaginable. When
eUer the senatorial inQuiSitorS asked
about q French loan or something,
he called upon his briet case car
riers for statement No. 1927 or
69S-B. These also were available
in quantities.
The prize one, however, was an
eight-page printed chronology of
events leading up to the World War.
Some of the events were printed in
bold-faced type to catch the eye Of
casual readers.
Quiet After A. A. A. Decision.
The A. A. A. decision may have been
the most momentous since Dred
Scott, but the following day was the
quietest Washington has experienced
in long time The only reason you
did not hear a pin drop was that most
of the statesmen were afraid to let
even significant idea fall.
The Senate was not in session. The
House. at this momentous hour, de-
voted itself to the most inconsequential
of all business, the private bills of
congressman seeking money for indi-
vidual constituents, for pensions, small
claims, etc The only mention of A.
A. A. was by Representative Peterson
of Georgia. He offered to the world
as substitute bill which. he said.
he had written on his own typewriter
in his own Office. The cheering from
the floor was accompanied by laughter.
President Roosevelt had few callers.
No conferences were arranged. His
secretary said he would not speak
about A. A. A. for some time.
Explanations for this cdlm-atter-
the-hurricdne Uere Udried. The
NetC Deal croDd said Mr.. Roosevelt
tUds Wisely nwditing public re-
action. He spoke too soon after
the N. r. A. decision A President
can 90 no farther than the people
Uant to 90.
A goodly number Of Democratic
Congressman particularly those from
the South were mumbling that they
did not want to get into a constitu-
tional amendment fight. 1t requires a
two-thirds majority of both houses and
three-fourths of the States.
Opponents of A. A. A. muttered
personal suspicious that their victory
was perhaps little too big. They
were confident the long-range effect
would be beneficial, but we're doubtful
about how to proceed now.
Personal Opinions Differ.
Every insider on both sides had a
different personal opinion about the
political and economic effect of the
decision. New Dealers generally
charged the court with playing poll
tics. They admitted the best paying
political feature of the New Deal had
been wiped out.
But wariest Republicans were not
certain they had been helped ma
terially. They noted that the farm
leaders were assembling here to devise
a program which would presumably be
tried before the campaign.
A hint of the strong feeling within
the Supreme Court on the A. A. A.
may be cleaned from the tone of the
minority opinion. It is unusual for
three judges to designate the conclu-
sions of their six colleagues as absurd
and ridiculous.

The Milky Way

The milky way is a hazy. some
what irregular banu of light about
twenty degrees wide, which COM
pletely encircles the heavens. 1t
can be seen on clear, moonless,
summer evenings, stretching entire
ly across the northern sky. The
unaided eye gets the impression
that the milky way is made up of
faint stars. The telescope confirms
this impression by showing that the
light IF the milky way is caused by
millions of stars. In reality these
stars are great suns and they appear
faint only because of their immense
distances. Most of them are so re-
mote that several thousand years
