|DaUy' Lewis
Contrast to
Tydings

It wouldn't be fair to call this
years. senatorial campaign in
Maryland a contest between brains
and beauty, but it promised to.
day to have that element in it.
In one corner of the political
ring stood tall, erect, slender and
debonair Millard F. TydingS, senior
Senator from Maryland.
HIS OPPONENT
In the other corner stood a
little man whose overall height
Of five feet finds compensation in
o face and figure which exude
magnetism and energy and acute
intelligence and in a political
record which stamps him as a
pioneer who fought for social leg
iSlation as a member of the House
when Franklin Roosevelt was
young Assistant Secretary of the
Navy.
The man is "Davy" Lewis, whose
comeback as the Representative
from Cumberland and the Sixth
Maryland district at the age Of SO
Is no accident of politics, but a
recognition of worth plus a de,
termination which never says die.
Senator Tydings has been out
for reelection for months, with
the support of his senatorial col
league, Senator Radcliffe of Bal
timore, and those elements OF
Maryland Free State who expect
their Senators to follow their oWr
ideas rather than any dictated
program-which is precisely what
Senator Tydings has been doing
during his public life.
Representative Lewis is a first
class fighting man also. but one
who fights for principles anc
ideals.
The son and grandson of Welsh
miners, he never attended school
vet Is regarded as one of the in
tellectuals of Congress, father Of
the parcel post, pioneer advocate
Of unemployment insurance and
social security legislation gener
ally, Government regulation of the
coal industry and authority on
the tariff-and former member
of the Tariff Commission by Wood
row wilson's appointment.
One man is rich and the other
poor. One lives on a historic and
beautiful estate in the upper Ches-
apeake Bay region, in an atmos-
phere of luxury. The other calls
Cumberland his home, lives hum
bly, and in a different world en-
tirely. The only wealth he has
known is the wealth Of work and
learning.
Both are able speakers. and
each has a wide personal fol
lowing.
NEW DEAL ISSUE
The New Deal necessarily viii
be an issue in their primary battle
In the opinion Of Marylanders ano
political observers since Tyding:
listens to no voice but that of his
own conscience, leading him frc
ouently into opposition to the
Roosevelt program, while Lewis
no less conscientious, finds hi!
ideas going along with those o!
the White House incumbent, AZ
they paralleled those of woodrow
Wilson in a previous political in
carnation.

of the Senate and House bills.
AS they began for their initial
meeting, Congressional leaders
let it be known that there will
be no going home" until a bill
suitable to both houses has been
sent to President Roosevelt for
his signature.
LEADERS CONFIDENT
The warning was given out fol.
lowing a forecast of a bitter and
lengthy struggle over the legisla-
ton by Senators Walsh, Cd Of
Massachusetts and Borah (RO
of Idaho. members of the Senate
Conference Committee.
Administration leaders, how
ever, were confident that the
struggle over pay differentials
for the South and other sections
of the country can be worked out
in time to permit Congress to ad-
journ by June 10.
AS the Senate confereeS, fight
ing the flat wage and hour sched-
ule of the House bill, went into
conference they were armed with
a new compromise proposal sug-
gested by the Cotton Textile In
stitute of America, representing
both Northern and Southern
plants.
3O.CENT MINIMUM
Said to have the tentative ap-
proval of Southern conferees, the
proposal would establish a mini
mum pay of 30 cents an hour for
all types of industry.
Sponsors of the proposal pointed
out that 80 cents an hour would
raise the general wage level in
the South, and still provide for
differential with the North
where, they said, most industries
are already paying a minimum
above that amount.
Another feature of the proposal
would write the minimum 80 cents
an hour rate in the bill, and thus
eliminate the controversial issue
of the Labor Standards Board
which would be authorized &C
grant exemptions under the Sen
ate bill. It calls for a 40-hou1
week, as do the Senate and House
bills. The proposal, however, met
with some criticism. It was argued
that the 30-cent minimum might
easily become the minimum Of the
North where unions and voluntary
action of employers have created
a general minimum level approx
mating 40 cents per hour.

SO-Mi. Gale RACES
On English Coast

SOUTHAMPTON, Eng, June 2
GN.SD-A terrific 80-mile-an-hour
gale was sweeping the English
Channel and Southern England
this morning, playing havoc with
shipping and flooding and dam
aging several coastal towns. The
S. S. Queen Mary had not arrived
at Cherbourg, France, from South
ampton at midnight, and many
passengers were stranded on the
dock there.
The Washington times., 1938-06-02

Northampton actually saw it
lis it not placing q strain on
human credulity to assert that
not one of them was able to
put his foot on or otherwise
gain possession of the cur
rency?
"IS the bagpipe so exacting
an instrument that the per-
former is unable to desist for
the brief space of time re-
quired to pick up a pit of loose
money lying in the street?
IF that is so, it throws a
fresh light on an instrument
that is, always has been. and
always will be, mystery to the
bulk of mankind.

meet the depression" Senator
Hayden Cd. Arizona, moved to
hike the PWA funds.
BACK MOTION
Senators Wagner CD, New
York, and Lee Cd, Oklahoma,
supported the motion. but SEN
ators Byrnes CD, South Carolina
and Adams Cd, Colorado, spoke
in opposition. Despite the latter,
the amendment was quickly
adopted.
Final passage of the bill today
was the goal of Majority Leader
Barley. He served notice the
Senate would be kept in session
far into the night, if necessary,
to pass the bill and send it to
mouse conference.
In addition to the fight over ear
marking of PWA funds, the Senate
faced a titanic struggle over an
Appropriations Committee amend
ment to prohibit use of PWA funds
for construction of municipal cleo
trio power plants.
SEES VICTORY
Barley predicted the drives for
earmarking PWA funds and for
the ban upon competition with
private power companies would be
smashed, leaving intact the provi-
sions to give President Roosevelt
broad discretionary power over
projects to be constructed.
President Roosevelt's letter to
Senator Adams CD Of Colorado,
yesterday, urging that the Admin
istration be given wide discretion
in extending the appropriations
in the bill, because of what he
characterized as emergency TN
employment conditions, found the
Democrats rallying to his banner.

 The overspending may begin when the responsible executive of the firm starts to answer the question How much shall 1 spend in advertising ?'
 There are more or less arbitrary per centages based on volume which retail business men should consider in de- termining the advertising appropria- tion; but one should go further than this. Such questions as these should be answered.: Do competitive condi- tions warrant an extra appropriation Will 1t pay me to spend an extra amount of money to develop this new line or department? Shall l make a drive for 1000 new customers? Shall I attempt to expand my business this year|
 The point is, the man who asks him. self these questions, and who is trying to find out how to spend MORE money for his newspaper advertising with profits is the man who will find if the most profitable.
 Any amount of overspending to the extent it is underspending or to the extent it's usefulness is lost by diffusion into miscellaneous media, no matter how small or how large the business or the appropriation.

Give Me a Ticket for
 $21.90

Would you, MT. Business Man, go to a railroad ticket window and ask for ticket for S21 90"?
 If your desired destination were l., O95 miles away and the rate two cents per mile, your travel appropriation would be adequate, for that figures $21.9O; but if the station agent sold you several side trips, leaving you short of your destination, then you might better have stayed at home and saved the S21 90. Or, in second ln- stance, if the destination were 5000 miles away, then, too, you might better have stayed at home.
 No. sir. You wouldn't do your trav- cling that way. You would probably determine the fare to Cleveland or New York, or wherever you were gong and pay the required amount.
 How, then, can a business man es- tablish a certain amount of money Tor an advertising appropriation, which may or may not be adequate, and then allow himself to be drawn into "slde trips" into miscellaneous media. IT he wants to go on these excursions, he must increase his advertising appro- priation accordingly; but more than likely he should deny himself this luxury.
 And how can business man make a S2l. go appropriation for $60 trip? Perhaps he is attempting to spend as little money as he can and still make showing and keep his name before the public. He believes that he is wise spender because he spends cautiously or perhaps RELUCTANTLY IS bet ter word.
 The plain truth is that these reluct- ant advertisers are as class, the real overspenders in advertising; t h ey OVERspend, and by UNDERspending.
