Let En-, Quarrel

THIS series of Washington
l. events is leading to much
speculation in washington
(where everyone has an expert
political jud 6 ment) as to
whether the New Deal politicos,
who are generally regarded as
the smartest ever to come to this
town, have not been less smart
lately than ever before.
The affirmative side of that
debate can prove that in Penn
sylvania, South Dakota and Ore
gon, so far, bitter family quar-
relS have beclouded the chances
of New Deal success in Novem.
Der.
If Wearin loses in Iowa, Tom
Corcoran and his associates who
have recently fancied them
selves as politicians in addition
to their official standing as eco
nomic advisers, will undoubtedly
depart from the field and leave
it to General Farley, who knows
something about it.
The cons laugh 1t off with
the incontrovertible contention
that Mr.. Roosevelt is getting
five billion dollars, and that any
head of a family with that
much money does not care
much how much the boys
quarrel.

2 Other Nazi Seamen
Testify in N. Y,

NEW YORK, June 8 Q.N.s).
Two German seamen testified be-
fore a Federal grand jury in the
Governments spy inquiry today as
United States Attorney Lamar
Hardy pondered the problem Of
what to do about two others who
were bound for Germany.
The two who testified were Will
liam Boehnke, pantrynan on the
North German Lloyd liner Bremen
and alleged Nazi party leader on
the vessel, and Johann Kleiber,
the Bremen's radio officer. Both
have posted $4,000 bail as ma
teriaI witnesses.
WITNESSES HELD
The two other material wit
nesses who sailed for Germany on
the North German Lloyd liner
Europa after being held in $4,000
bail each are Captain Heinrich
Lorenz and Captain Franz Friske.
Captain LorenZ is the master Of
the North German Lloyd freighter
Chemnitz and formerly was chief
officer Of the Europa. Captain
Friske is the master Of the Ham
burg American freighter linden
burg.
Their departure swelled to four
the number of spy inquiry wit
nesses who have left this country
for Germany.
DESIGNER HELD
The other two are DR.. Ignatz T.
Griebl, fined so marks in Ham
burg and released when he arrived
there without q passport, and
Werner George Gutenberg, who
was released upon arriving at q
German port today.
Another material witness held in
$4,000 bail was Christian Daniel

nuence in elections is the best
break the Republican party has
had in the last six months.
The amendment would not have
meant anything anyway.
1.-THE Administration cannot
keep politics out of relief even
If it wanted to, and of course
it does not. The amendment
would have amounted to moth.
ing more than a pious expires
sion. They have made a record
which officially puts them in
favor Of the use Of WPA influ-
ence. Nothing could be sweeter
from q Republican stand
point"
DenOcrots' View
THIS seeming common-sense
L was also shared, upon later
reflection, by several Democratic
Senators who voted against the
resolution. They thought they
had unwittingly put themselves
into a position which would be
indefensible on the stump.
They, too, wanted another
vote so they could put them
selves right, by folding their
forefingers and thumb in q
triangle and opposing the use Of
political influence.
Wiser, older heads on their
side also objected. It is not pos
sible to quote this shrewd coun.
sci directly, but the gist of 1t
was that the amendment was
not as meaningless as it ap-
peared to be. Actually, the
Democratic leadership thought
the amendment might prove to
be embarrassing in the Novem.
Der elections.
But what really prevented the
amendment from being adopted
was the unannounced fact that
more Senators have friends in
WPA than enemies. That is, Mr..
Hopkins seems to have taken
care Of most Of the Democratic
Senators in his selection Of
WPA advisers.
Consequently in the last analy-
sis, the defeat of the amend
ment may be attributed to the
fact that the Senators expect
more help than hurt, personal
ly, from WPA political activities.

They urged that another try

a pious restriction against use
Of WPA pressure in elections

New Deal would be deprived Of

 Futher, the Times says, Like Vanni McNamee entered the Uni versity of Washington year ago this fall, but didn't break into ath- letic competition until spring, when he played freshman baseball.

 ''The new Rainier is chunky youngster, weighing around POO pounds although he's shade under six feet tall. He is just 20 years old.
 Manager Jack Lelivelt talked to me about going to training camp at Anaheim, Calf. with the Raniers when he was in Seattle recently, said young McNamee, but l didn't want to sign until I talked it over with by older brother, Lawrence (former semi-pro star around Se- attle) on his return from Alaska.
 Lawrence told me to go ahead, so I'll take fling at baseball and attend the University of Washing ton during the winters"
 The Rainiers took number ol
