1t spent more money, indulged in
more talk and passed fewer laws than
any session in recent years. The total
appropriations exceeded twenty bill
lions, twelve of which were authorized
in the last three months. Except for
one World War year there has been
nothing approximately as great. A
special appropriation Of 100000 was
necessary to print the 10000 addi-
tional pages of the Congressional
Record forced by the various filibus-
tiers. Though it began in a strong eco
nomic atmosphere, with the President
insisting upon a balanced budget and
urging rigid retrenchment, it ends III
an unmatched and lavish outburst Of
spending.

Startling as these financial facts
are, the record Of the Congress on leg
islative and political matters and its
attitude toward the Executive is just
as remarkable. 1t started off looking
for guidance to an immensely popu-
lar President, fresh from his great
1886 victory, at the top Of his pres
tige and with larger party majority
in Congress than any President in
hundred years. The notion that it
would revolt against Mr.. Roosevelt
was regarded as ridiculous. Yet revolt
it did in an astonishing and signif-
cant way. 1t mortify1ngly beat his
most cherished plan to seize control Of
the Supreme Court, resisting extra
ordinary White House pressure and
personal Presidential appeals. When
it came back in the special session Of
last November it rejected the wage
and-hour bill, and in the regular scs,
sion this year, despite every Admins
tration effort, refused passage to the
anti-lynching and the departmental
reorganization bills, both deeply de-
sired by the White House. And it
passed a tax bill so disliked by Mr..
Roosevelt that he let it become a law
without his signature and denounced
II to the country.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1938-06-23

More than 5000 names have been
added to the pension rolls. The number
of Federal jobholders, commissions
and boards has been increased. The
Federal bureaucracy, against which
Mr.. Roosevelt once inveighed, has
been enhanced and extended. The def
icit for the year will approximate five
billions and the debt by July 1, 1889,
is estimated at forty-eight billions, an
undreamed of figure, twenty-seven bill
lions increase in six years. AS the
session ends, it is clear that Federal
finances are dangerously out of con-
troll. There is no longer even any
talk about restoring the national equi-
librium.
