The House wrote it that way

mental position Of being the fine

For the Districts welfare is a
lost cause in the House Of Rep

needs instead of a commission
to make another useless survey
of the fiscal relationship be-
tween the District and Federal
Government is a psychoanalyst
to find out why the House
froths at the mouth every time
the District is mentioned.
But to get back to the mo-
laSses. No one on the Senate
District Committee liked the
tax bill they presented on the
floor Friday. But instead Of be-
ing foolish about it the commit
tee stated frankly:
eve don't like this bill. It's
terrible. It's the best we could
do in a hurry and don't worry,
the House will knock the spots
off it before it gets into law.

Tending States rights, the peO-
pie in the States have a vote,
the people in the District don't.
It's tough but it's life"
Regardless Of how wrong their
reasoning was they were frank
about it. So frank that Senator
William H. King, chairman Of
the committee, walked over I'M

up:

truth in q fIash-and see how

Yes, this is true. But it does
not prove that woman has mystic
rious faculties which man does
not possess. It merely proves
that women and men use their
minds differently.
Basically, MANN ind and
woman-mind are alike-but their
training has been as far apart as
the poles. Women have led q
secluded, INDTvIDUALISTIC
LIFE. Men have led a social
COOPERATIVE life. Women
were taught to be a law unto
themselves. Men were taught
to follow the tribal code and con-
Vention.
When a man reasons, he fol-
lows the ancient trail Of logic bit

not so the women. With one
wild swoop she disregards non
essentials and lands on the cru

CHICAGO's SYPHILIS SURVEY

Exciting news from Chicago-the city's health Off
cals cooperating with the United States Public Health
Service undertaking comprehensive bIood-test
survey of Chicago's population to
SedrchLtQht determine percentage of syphilis.
On SuDhiLis The first step in the Chicago sur
vey is mailing of QUESTIONABLE to
100000 Chcagoans, asking them whether they would
be willing to undergo free and secret blood tests by their
family DOCTORS If the idea proves popular enough city
and State expected to furnish funds for the tests
Public health, scientific and medical results of the
Chicago survey should be very valuable But equally
valuable should be this latest and to date greatest
attack on the false modesty that has until recently made
the battle against syphilis battle in the dark We wish
all success to the Chicago survey If it proves prac
ticabe, New York City might well undertake similarly

The House will not accept the

the Democratic Congress was
split up like a blue plate lunch

showed up and poured gravy
on all concerned.
I would call him a great pa

spell it.
When you think of it, only
one Vice President ever got IA

Of a wise crack about a nickel

want to grab the front pages
and the editorial columns.
He can sneak away to go fish

tarieS and half the United States
Navy in the background.

the Vice Presidents wife sits at
state dinners, either. AS a mat
ter Of fact, he'd rather go to a
one-armed lunch.
Mr.. Garner has a set of eye
brows you could chin yourself
on, but they won't snap at you
like John L. Lewis. And for
the small sum of $4,000 a year,
he has to preside over the Sen
ate and listen to fellows like

From the ranks Of these fresh

ran out on President Roosevelt
and brought his court fight to
a swift and bitter conclusion
only to find out that when the
final compromise measure was
drawn UP they were left out in
the cold.

are beginning to fear that the
President was right when he
charged that his foes had in
mind also to scuttle the New
