SANE ECONOMY
C. 0. P. aim, SAYS
HOUSE LEADER

U.N.SJ The current Washing
ton question-what will the re-
vitalized Republican minority in
Congress do about New Deal
spending?-was met today by Rep
resentative Taber Of New York,
top-ranking G. o. p. member Of
the House Appropriations Com
mittee, with the assertion that
sane and reasonable economy"
will be the Republican goal.
WAR ON WASTE
If relief appropriations are
again sought, if a rearmament
program is set forth as expected,
the G. o. P. will go along where
the New Deal can clearly demon
strate the need, but Republicans
will insist that administrative
asininities, politics and waste be
completely eliminated" he de-
clared.
Private employment is the
key to a real recovery, Taber
said.

OTHERS IN RACE

Others injected into the race oy
admirers in their home State dele
cations include:
Michigan - Representative Carl
E. MapeS, of Grand Rapids, vet
eran of Is years service in the
House.
Ohio Representative Thomas
A. Jenkins, of Ironton, in Con-
gress since 1921 and frequent
spokesman for legislation favored
by the patriotic societies.
Pennsylvania - Representative
William ]. Otter, Of Amber mear
Philadelphia, a relative new
conner to national politics, with
six years in the House to his
credit, but whose ability and force
have brought him rapidly to the
front.
Unless there is to be a compro-
mise choice, however, the race
would appear to be a natural one
between Martin and Wadsworth,
provided the latter shows enough
interest in (which he hasn't
thus far-to make it a real con-
test. The Wadsworth cause to
date Is largely in the hands of his
friends. One of its leaders is Tom
Hutton, editor of the Bingham

acquaintance in national politics.

Exhibit of Radio Stars Art to Aid
Chinese Red Cross

1t cost exactly two bits to get a
mind of Oracle Allen, the screen
and radio comedienne:
The 25 cents was the price Of
admission to an exhibit of her
surrealist paintings for the benefit
of the Chinese Medical Red Cross
Commission.
There were 10 alleged works of
art on display. Oracle, herself,
discreetly stayed away. She said
she feared a popular movement to
hang her for the eleventh.
Oracle said she valued the col
lection at $250,O00 and wouldn't
sell them even though they would
be cheap at half the price.
BY long distance, Oracle re-
layed an explanation of her entry
into this new and more serious
form of art. AS quoted by the
director, Miss Allen said:
"SurrealiSm reveals my ur1-
conscious mind. Or is it the sub
conscious? I admit I have a
terrible time awakening my I'M
conscious, but on the other
hand, it came to me like bolt
from the blue, only it was 3
o'clock in the morning.
after viewing my paintings
the next morning, I decided it
must have been a genius who
did them. I asked George If he
did. He said he would picket the
place if they used the name Of

Threatens Drive of
Joseph Martin
BY THEODORE HUNTLEY

First fruits of the COP. triumph
in the November elections began
to appear here today in a scram-
BILE for the minority leadership of
the House.
Latest and most formidable en-
trant in what promises to develop
into a spirited contest for the
place is Representative James w.
Wadsworth of New York, one-time
Senator and admittedly an able
parliamentarian and legislator Of
conservative persuasion. A full
fledged boom for his selection to
succeed Representative Bert Smell
of New York, who declined to be
a candidate for reelection this
year, was in progress in upper
New York State and spreading
into other States as well.
MARTIN BOOM
Although there were other
names in the discussions relating
to Republican leadership, tn e
Wadsworth movement apparently
is the first to threaten the drive
of Representative Joseph w. Mar
tin, jr., of Massachusetts,, chair
man of the G. o. P. congressional
committee, floor manager for the
Landon forces at Cleveland in
1896. Until now, Martin seemingly
has been in line for election to the
new post almost by default.
The Wadsworth development
knocks the peace-and-harmony
idea into a cooked hat, however,
and with several other candidates
jockeying for position as well.
raises a serious doubt for the first
time as to the action Of the
G.. o. P. caucus when Congress
meets in January.
Chief significance Of the con-
test, aside from the personalities
involved and their records in Con-
greSS and politics, Is the rather
obvious conclusion in the minds Of
Republicans that the minority
leadership in the House during
the next two years might mean
something.
G. o. P. hope has risen since
the elections to the highest peak
it has reached since 1892, in sharp
contrast to the depressing view OF
the party'S prospects held by
Leader Smell when he decided to
quit politics. The scramble for
recognition, party honor and .
chance to lead the anti-New Deal
forces in the House is its latest
frlition.

Judy was sitting in q hammock

Jerry found her. She looked up coldly.

Ordinarily Jerry would have found
1t no chore at all to be nice to Judy.
She was one of those girls you read
about, the moment he laid eyes on
her he decided it was going to be
hard not being too nice to her. Before
the first day had passed he whole
heartedly cursed Jim for insisting that
he come down for the wedding.
Lord" he thought, after they're
married I'll have to get out of the
country. wouldn't have moments
peace"
Jerry's annoyance at Jim presently
gave way to self-pity. He had prom
ised himself during the first hour of
conversation with Judy that he would
remain immune to her charms. This
resolution vanished at about the same
time the sun dissipated the dew the
next morning. 1t was then that he
decided Fate was giving him a rotten
deal. For Jerry suddenly knew that
he loved Judy, that she was the only
girl in the world who could ever make
him happy.
1t was torture being with her, trying
to be nice as per Jim's request and
yet at the same time maintain his
equilibrium. Judy didn't help. She
didn't exactly flirt, but on the other
hand she didn't act like a girl who
in a weeks time would be Mrs Some
body Else
An alarming thought flashed across
Jerry's mind. Suppose she felt toward
him as he felt toward her? Suppose
Fate was handing her rotten deal,
too? Suppose she had believed sin
cerely that she loved Jim, but now
that she had met Jerry-Well, it might
be one of those things. you know.
IN THIS case, Jerry decided, she
would look to him for deliverance.
Whatever happened he would have to
assume the responsibility. He was
the man. He must be masterful.
Jerry could think of only one way
of being masterful. 1t was an OLD
gag, but it usually worked He must
profess interest in another. Who?
Julia Walters. of course. Julia was
to be one of Judy's bridesmaids. She
wasn't bad-looking, either. Jerry began
promoting her.
1t might have worked out, save for
one thing. Julia didn't welcome
Jerry's attentions. Either she guessed
at his purpose. or she didn't like the
idea of playing second fiddle. Still,
Jerry didn't give up. He was des-
