Congress Could Recess.
Farenthetically:
If Congress is so tired that it can
not stand the strain any longer, it can
recess. 1t can recess, for>instance from
the middle of August until October or
November, illustratively.
Thus getting good bit of rest.
But if congressman recess the as
sumption is that they are here all the
time:s they do not get mileage" for
coming here from home and going
back, again.
If they adjourn and return for a
new session or if they are called into
extra session they do get mileage"
for the round trip. This mileage" is
at far higher. rate than what the
round trip really costs-unless the
legislator chooses to travel like a
plutocrat,
In other words, the difference be-
tween what mileage actually is and
what the congressman pays leaves a
margin in his. favor
Mileage Pay Counts.
Thus an extra session is not alto

The administration doubtless real
ICES that congressman like to get their
mileage and is disposed to be occom-
modating.
Anyway, that is the difference be-

GARNER

Jack Garner passed through Cincinnati this week
on the way to his Texas home. persistent, viva
cious and rather plausible opinion has it that for
their own welfare and that of the nation, the Dem
ocrats should have nominated him for president in
1882, and given him second place to Mr. Roosevelt.
1t is revived by the unusual circumstance that for
once the vice president is acting like his chief Mr..
Roosevelt left Washington in the midst of con-
gress session to fish in salt waters. In the midst OF
congress session Mr.. Garner leaves Washington
to fish in fresh waters. ...
One man has been mentioning AZ per cent OF
his official life as president. During his long and
useful career as national legislator, the other
man never took vacation. Though his vote would
be needed to settle possible tie on the presidents
court-packing project, suddenly he sets out for
Texas The day before his departure ne appointed
senate committee of five, four of them critics OF
the administration, to inquire into the expenditures
of relief money by Hopkins and lckes. According
to unofficial but seemingly trustworthy reports, ne
pounded the presidents desk and swung his fist un-
der the presidents some weeks ago when the
silence of the White House during the first sit
down strikes was under consideration
Mr.. Garner has been the most loyal Of the presi-
dents thinking lieutenants. But he is his own man
for all that--a hater of extravaganza, real Dem
ocrat a genuine American. Is he leaving Washing
ton in WEAKNESS, in disgust in protest, or in de-
spain Cincinnati Times-Star.

IT'S DIFFERENT NOW

1t was but a short time ago that John l.. Lewis
was hanging to President Roosevelts coat-tall IN
an effort to pull his c. ]. o. to higher ground Mr.
Roosevelt was the dominant figure in the field OF
labor relations and his words and wishes brought
instant yeas from Mr.. Lewis.
Today the picture seems to have changed. Mr.
Lewis has grown in stature, thanks to sweeping
gains scored with Mr.. Roosevelt running as inter-
ference, and now the Big Man of c. !. o. appears
to think he needs the president no longer. That is
indicated by Lewis scorn for and opposition to the
Roosevelt backed plan to make the government set
minimum wages and maximum hours.
1t looks like a repetition of the old, old story Of
friend being used" and forgotten. Perhaps Mr..
Lewis thinks he has grown great that now Mr..
Roosevelt should seek and appreciate his help.
Anyhow the c. l. o. chieftain is at the stage where
he is "on his own" and it is clearly up to Mr..
Roosevelt and the rest of the country to look out
for Observation-Disclosures Mail.

NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
cAMoUFLAGING THE NEW DEALS REAL
DILEMMA - .u ~" ..''

To get state socialism into effective operation
one-man government becomes an essential Nazi
Germany and fascist Italy were preceded by eX-
perimentS in state socialism. There is no middle
ground between democracy and dictatorship wheth-
err the dictatorship is born of fascist or COM
munistc parentage.
/ One of the things that hastens the advent of
state socialism is the inability of the private cap
italistic system to bear the burden of exorbitant
taxes. A reasonable cost of government can be
met i'm a democracy by an intelligent and compre-
hensive tax system.
There are men inside the Roosevelt adminstra-
ton, i'm congress and in the executive branch, who
sincerely believe in the system of capitalistic
democracy and they conscientiousy seek the I'M
position of taxes that may be qeutably distributed
But without the approval and stimulus of the CHIEF
executive no steps to enact tax legislation will be
taken nowadays.
If Mr. Roosevelt means to proceed now with
campaign for wisely distributed taxes, his dema-
goguery on the subject of tax evasion did not give
hint of any such constructive purpose. President
Roosevelt evidently prefers the atmosphere OF
poemics He apparently is still in the mood of the
last political campaign. He is not content with the
scapegoats modified then. He must now have
scapegoats to explain the unbalanced budget.
1t is to be hoped that these differences will prove
unwarranted 1t is to be hoped that the president
really will focus attention on the problem of tax
lodging as heretofore practced by the politicians
who think that when they have Soaked the rich
they have solved the tax dilemma. What they have
feared to tell the people is that expenses have
gone so high and the financial requirements of the
government nowadays are so heavy that it really
is going to be necessary to soak the rich to the
point of coniscation and also to soak the poor to
the point of real hafdship,-David Lawrence in

five years ago Claude Burckmyer

encouraged over the outlook.

a little before the South Carolina
crop was off the market.
Although the plants continue to
grow and the market is as good
now as in the beginning, further
harvesting would tend to destroy
the vitality of the plants, which
will be cultivated through the
summer for root and crown de-

THE NEW DEAL
IN WASHINGTON
BY RODNEY DuTcHER--
EY RODNEY BUTCHER
NEa Sor,,;ca Sfaff CorreSuOndent

THE bills introduced by Senator
Hugo Black and Congressman
VIM. H. Connery are almost iden-
tical-but not quite.
Connery made slight excision
which has given another severe
headache to Secretary Of State
Cordell Hull, who every other
week has to worry about some
new direct or indirect attack on
his trade treaties.
The original bill, as in the
Black bill, legally defined the
goods affected as those produced
manufactured, mined, handled, or
in any other manner worked on
in any state" Connery cut out
the words ain any state"
And that means, according &c
the lawyers, that the Connery bill
would prevent importation into
the United States of foreign
goods produced under lower labor
standards than those set up by the
board. What this would do tc
American import trade and tc
those Hull trade treaties woule
be more than plenty.
THOSE who saw the Black-Con-
L merry bill in its final mimeo-
graphed form before introduction
noticed that a last-minute pencili
ing had changed the Labor Stand
ards board from a previously con.
templated three-member commits
sion to a five-man group. Expla-
nation turns out to be tnat it's
new administration policy to have
five-member commissions IN the
future and no more trtos.
This proposal was adopted from,
a confidential document known as
the Draper report" which was q
study of the management of IVA
by Assistant secretary
of Commerce Ernst Draper. The
report says that three-man COM
missions always tended to line up
two members against one, which
was the way it happened when
Director Arthur Morgan OF IVA,

thai and Haricourt Morgan,

WASHlNGToN-ihe desire OF
" some labor leaders TO collect
everything possible in the way
Of union dues appears alongside
the unwillingneSS Of many manu-
facturerS to pay higher wages as q
factor in the opposition TO the
Black Connery wage and hour bill
The most contentious point in
the bill is its section five, which
would give the proposed labor
standards board power to fix a
minimum fair wage" in individ-
ual industries up to the equivalent
Of $1,000 year.
It is probable that the blank
spaces in previous sections will
be filled in SO as TO fix q general
minimum wage and hour stand
ard of 40 cents an hour and 40
hours n week, which would be the
equivalent of $500 a year or Sic
a week for anyone who had so
weeks Of employment.
The theory behind the measure
is that there is no collective bar
gaining worth talking about for
the wage group which earns less
than $500 a year, and that many
workers in the range between
$500 and $1,000 have no money
with which to organize and bar
gain collectively. Thus, after the
bill previously has authorized the
board to vary its non-oppressive
standards upward or downward,
section five authorizes the board
10 establish minimum fair wage
in cases where facilities for col
lective bargaining are inadequate
or ineffective, and where lower
wages paid by some employers
threaten to undermine the labor
standards of other employers. But
there are labor leaders who fore
see that many unskilled workers
will feel less incentive to join
unions if and when the govern
nent fixes wages for them at be-
tween Sic and SIS a week.
So, they shy away from II. On
the other hand there are labor
leaders who say that the head of
a family who makes less than SIS
a week is unlikely to have enough
food in his stomach to make good
