Democratic Peace.

Chairman James A. Farley of the
Democratic National Committee, speak,
ing in Michigan on THURSDAY, took cog
nizance of the reported split in the New
Deal party. Mr.. Farley emphatically
denied that Democratic Senators and
Representatives who opposed President
Roosevelt on his court bill are now going
to leave the party. He also remarked
~ wish to emphasize that when next
years election rolls around the Demo-
cratic National Committee will be work.
Ing with might and main for the elec-
ton of all Democratic candidates and
the defeat of all their opponents"
The Democratic chairman was reply
ing in particular to an address delivered
earlier by Senator Vandenberg of Michi-
gan, who laid emphasis on political re-
alignments and suggested coalition of
Republicans with those Democrats who
have broken with the President THE
assumption" said Farley, "of Senator
Vandenberg that, because they disagreed
with the President on one issue, DEMO-
cratic Senators are going to follow him
into bankrupt political organization
that does not know the United States
is living in the twentieth century is too
absurd for words
The tenor Of Mr.. Farleys speech was
to the effect that the Democrats will
make peace. 1t is clear, however, that
the peace, if it comes, will be made along
Roosevelt lines. Those Democratic SEN
ators who do not agree in the next ses-
sion OF Congress to go along with the
President. may not be Democratic can
didates" for reelection when their time
comes. They must run the gantlet of
Democratic primaries or Democratic
State conventions, for their nominations
1t is in the party primary that any re-
prlsals will be made. This the Demo-
cratic opponents of the President under
stand as well as does Chairman Farley.
The attitude of the present admins
tration toward recalcitrant Democratic
members of Congress and toward execu-
tive officials who have not seen eve to
eye with the President has not been con-
ciliatory. The rule or ruin policy has
prevailed. How many of the Democrats
who have been disgusted with the pro-
posal to rook the Supreme Court, with
the reckless extravaganza of the admin
istration and with the creation of a vast
Federal bureaucracy, will have the nerve
to make a last-ditch fight is decidedly
question. The next session of Congress
will perhaps give some inkling.
Mr.. Farley significantly said in his
Michigan speech: In the session of
Congress just ended some Democratic
members of Congress differed with Pres
1dent Roosevelt on certain policies. Only
the people can say whether the Chief
Executive or those individual members
OF Congress came closer to expressing
the popular will" Here is a threat held
over the heads of the Presidents oppo-
nents. There are signs already that the
President is preparing to show these
recalcitrant Democrats that his will is
the will of the people. His trip to the
West was undertaken for that purpose.
If he calls a special session of the Con-
gress, to meet in November, it may be
regarded as sure sign that the Presi-
dent is prepared to go the whole route
IN demonstrating to Democratic men,
bers that they must go along with him.

Dangerous Holiday.
Old Mr.. Commonsense, he worked most

He said, I'VE must live practical, while
thinkin' thoughts sublime"
Our hearts were always cheerful and
our arms were always strong
When old Mr.. Commonsense was helping
things along.
But old Mr. Commonsense once took a
holiday.
His head was turned completely by the
jazzy tunes they play.
We joined him in the dance until the
hours were wee and small"
And everybody said pleasant time was
had by all.
Old Mr.. Commonsense recovered from his
fun,
And said, Nov let's get busy, cause the
holiday Is done"
But folks had learned to think that life
was only made for play,
They laughed at Mr.. Commonsense and
sent him on his way.
A frolic too prolonged is sure to turn
into q fight
They said, you put us wrong. and now
you've got to set us right.
Oh, Mr.. Commonsense, We'll mind the
things you say.
But don't you ever try to take another
holiday"

Reserve Board started to tighten its hold
over credit. Word went out to start
curtailing Government spending where
possible.
But wage advances and price advances
at retail continued. Building labor got
higher wages. Building material prices
moved back not far from their 1929 level.
Stocks continued to move higher al
though some commodities reacted to the
presidential warning. Still it looked like
everything was going to 500 and nobody
seemed to be concerned.
Only not everybody was getting wage
advances. Most workers in industry did
not share in the increases. A Federal
Reserve Board study revealed that act
ual "ircome producing" expenditures by
the Government-that is, the spending
OF borrowed mOney-was going to be at
least two and one-half billions smaller
in 1887 than it had been in 1896. Unless
private business expanded sufficiently to
take up that slack, there would be a real
jolt to the recovery movement The
higher prices caught relief workers and
the bulk of industrial workers without
enough more dollars to meet those
prices. 1nstallment credit was frightened

KEECH DEFENDS
SLX-TOKEN RULE
IN TRANSIT ROW
Declares Pay Increase
Caused Fare Raise
BY A. J. DRISCOLL
Citizens Associations Editor

A S125,o00 pay increase, granted
hv the Capital Transit Company to
its employees, was responsible for
the raise in street car and bus
fares, Richmond B. Keech, vice
president of the Public Utilities
Commission, last night told mem
bers of the Southwest Citizens AS
sociation. The company, he said,
had expended S10,000,000 in the
District since the merger OF 1882
and was sadly in need OF funds to
meet payment on new equipment.

action, in establishing minimum
sale of six tokens for so cents and
ignoring popular demand Of three
for 25 cents, he said the poor are
not the ones affected most by the
increase, but rather the casual
riders who, at times, especially
during inclement weather. over
crowd street cars and buses sim
Ely for their own convenience, re-
sulting in annoyance and COM
plants from regular patrons.
A vigorous condemnation was
made by C. F. Lacy regarding in
adequate garbage, ash and trash
collections in the Southwest terri
tory, as against the more frequent
service rendered in the Northwest.
Mr.. Lacy pointed out it was not
unfrequent for garbage to remain
in front yards and on parHngS
for several days awaiting collec'
ton, and that those so employed
seemed to take delight in destroy
ing receptacles. The matter was
ordered brought to the attention
Of the District Commissioners.
BY other actions the association
requested that the traffic lights
at Fourteenth and Water Streets
Southwest be rearranged, that
Seventh Street be designated as a
boulevard, and that an additional
appropriation be made to provide
10 more police officers at No. 4
precinct.
Consideration Of the Commis-
sioners Citizens Committee report,
for reorganization Of the District
government, was deferred until

division of the New England coun- ell, emphasized the importance of this great influx of new money into the New England area and It's re- turn not only to industry and gen. eral business but particularly, to real estate values and city and I1on- urban development. In Connecticut, with its 5000 miles of improved highways, 7,6l9 miles of rivers and streams; a shore line of 245 miles; more than. 1000 lakes with & total area of 43,59i acres, recreational real estate development, he said, plays an all-important part today, with unlimited possibilities tornor- row. Without the income from the non-permanent resident, 63 out of the states 169 towns would have great difflculty in paying their go- ing expenses.
 Tn making play pay, we have so far only scratched the surface, either in Connecticut or in any other New England state," MT. Rog- CTS said. Turn for the moment to the great influx of new residents in the northwest section of our state.

Vernal Equinox
 Occurs Tonight At 7:O5 D. S. T.

All hands will be piped on deck this evening for a notable event in the annals of Father Time. Promptly at 7:05, daylight time, the autumnal equinox will occur.
 In case you aren't up on your equinoxes that simply means that summer officially ends at this moment and autumn begins. It's a change of season announced some days back with light frosts, topcoats, hurry calls for coal and oil, as well as kindling wood.
 An autumnal. or vernal equinox occurs when the earth's axis is directly at right angles to the di' rection of the sun. An equinox produces an unusual phenomenon which none of us notices. Night and day are equal the world over.
 As 8 matter of strict fact for this particular section of the United States the sun will rise and set at the same identical point on the clock-6:43 - Saturday of this week.
