A Chance to Vote

Do Washngtonians want chance to elect delegations
to the national political conventions which will actually
REPRESENT the members of the parties in the District
or do they want to continue the present system of send
ing delegations picked by afew pseudo political leaders
of the community?
We believe that Washingtonians want their single op
portunty to enjoy any political privilege to be above
reproach and we are giving them chance to express
their views.
There is printed in these columns simple ballot upon
which readers asked to express their views the
bill prepared by Mr.. John p Mullen, pending in Con-
gress which would establish legal methods of selecting
the party delegation
The bill does not give the community any new priv
leges. Il
IT MERELY SETS UP A DECENT AND OPEN
METHOD BY WHICH THE CITY CAN EXERCISE
THE PRIVILEGES ALREADY GRANTED BY THE
DEMOCRATIC AND REPUBLICAN PARTIES.
The measure wOuId eliminate the Darkroom sys-
tenn of choosing delegations to the conventions and
wOuLd insure that the delegations be composed of
actual residents of Washington UhO> knOU about
conditions here and WO can fittingLy represent the
sentiment of the city.
The bill should not be confused with pending legsa-
i've proposals to give the city measure Of control over
its own affairs to give representation in Congress
It does not affect the status of the city as
voting National Capital. -
It provides simply legal procedure under which
party members in the city could elect their representa-
tives in their own party convention.

Holy Week"
Perhaps it doesn't mean much
to you. You aren't religious"
you say. "Never took much stock
in such things"
Or you may voice an even
more vigorous proteSt-may brand
the Easter story as superstition"
deny there was ever a Christ
whose heart broke in Olivet,
whose body died on Golgotha but
whose spirit has gon flaming
through the centuries, branding
its imprint on our savage, human
flesh.
All right - have it your
own way. This column is
no pulpit nor this writer
an evangelist. And if you want
to sheer and snort, that's just
your bad luck, not mine, stranger.
But I DO know q little about
life-and people. And a lot about
human suffering and weakness.
And I'm telling you this
You may deny Christ-yOu

may scott at the Stations Of
the Cross-and hO0t ut Col
gOtha and the Resurrection.
BUT STEP BY STEP AND
TEAR BY TEAR AND NAIL
BY NAIL YOU WILL LIVE
THEM IN YOUR OWN LIFE.
For the Easter story is not
merely religious history. It is
the deepest, truest record ever
written of the progress Of the
human heart.
And never yet was there q
human being who did not have to
face death-not once but many
timeS-death-death at the price
Of life. And rise again, not once
but many times, from some mar
row grave.
FOR ALWAYS WE MUST DIE

BROKEN BEFORE WE CAN

AND ALWAYS WE MUST BE

II cannot see beyond this
troubled life. I am too weak,
too poisoned by human doubt,
to be radiantly sure Of the Resur-

Mr.. Hopkins should know what
the WPA pays its men. The men
who work for WPA should know
what they receive.
There is little discrimination,
workers say, in the pay Of married
and single men, SO that q man
with five or six children may re.
ceive the same wages as are PAID
to a single man.
And when a person with q large
family attempts to exc out an eX'
istence for himself and his chill
dren on $45 per month, 1t pre-
sents a problem that even Mr..
Hopkins might have difficulty IN
solving.
The contention that $45 is bet
ter than nothing" perhaps is true,
but better than that might be the
proposition to equa1ize the wages
paid to laborers and to foremen.
Some foremen are paid $500 or
more per month for supervision.
Furthermore, many Of the workers
in Washington contend that the
foremen are imported" and that
they are not residents Of the is
tricS Of Columbia.
Consequently, the laborers
haven't much faith in Mr.. Top
kinS, and they contend that their
feelings cannot be claSSed as dis
loyalty to the ones who are paying
them the small wages.
