BILL AMEN D M E N IS

CONTINUED f:am n2ge one)
of the bill Tuesday, and predict
ed passage in modified form Dy
Wednesday night.
He said an amendment to eX-
empt the veterans bureau was
discussed but that nothing den
mite was decided. He added that
the group had given the Prc:Si-
dent a picture of the legislative
agenda at the present time, With
out specific reference to any one
problem. 49,, =,
The majority leader also said
that the administration did not
plan to alter it's proposals for
abolishing the comptroller gen
erals office nor substitution OF a
single civil service administrator
for the present bipartisan board.
ave told the president that we
have definite opinion that the
bill will pass" he said. 1--WE dis
cussed amendments and he did
not express any opposition"
Rayburn's prediction of pass
age by Wednesday night revised
earlier predictions by Bankhead
and other leaders that the mea-
sure could mo- be brought to a
vote before the end of this week.
House Majority Leader Bert
rand Fl. Smell, r., n. Y, said that
the fillingness of administration
forces to make concessions indl-
Gated definitely "that they could
not pass the bill in the form that
il was written" But he said he
feared that enough votes had
been swung to assure passage.
He said the administrations
objective was to get sufficient
votes, to pass the measure $50
that it can be thrown into con-
ference where it will be rewrit-
ten" and pointed out that ut is
harder to stop a bill on the floor
than a conference report.
Should the measure pass the
house, it will be sent into con-
ference with the senate for an
adjustment of differences be-
tween the two bills. The finish
ed conference product is then re-
turned to both chambers for con-
currence in the changes. -.
Smell said that the present SIT
uation showed the power of Mr..
Roosevelt TO dictate to and con-
troll many house Democrats de-
spite their knowledge that the
"people are intellectually
against the bill"
Chairman John J. O'Connor, d.
N. Y, of the powerful house
rules committee, leading Demo
cratic opponent of the bill, SAID
that the compromise was "balt
and that the next move Is the
frying pam"
"These concessions are merely
bait" he said. "They may not
even be carried out in confer
ence. But, in my Judgment, tins
bill is a long way from becoming
a law and it may never be So;
the American people are aroused
against it."
Today the house laid aside the
bill temporarily for other busl1
ness. including the calendar ana
a bill for extension of Recon
struction Finance Corpora o n
lending powers. When it re-
sumes consideration of the reor-
gaflization bill, late today or
Tuesday, there will be virtually
no limit on debate.

Good Workers Are Given
Best Dinners by Warden

CAMDEN, N. J.-Atop the Cam
den county courthouse is an ultra
modern "skyscraper" jail used prin-
cipally for untried prisoners and
others unable to furnish bail.
Warden George Roundey has
saved the county about $4,000
through his system of dual menus.
Although no inmate is required to
work, those who do are given more
palatable meals.
Roundey is an advocate OF an Gin
stallment plan" for paying fines.
Take the case Of a man who is
fined SIS or $50 for something that
perhaps could not be made out as
clear-cut case Of negligence" he
said. "Why send him to jail in dis
grace when, under a more moderate
law, he could pay his fine at the
rate of 81 a week, just as he does
when he makes q purchase. It
seems a shame that one man with
plenty of money can pay his fine
and go, while the poor man has to
stay in Jail until the law considers
him purged of his offense."

"Pardons" Among Unique
Ceremonies In Brittany

The region of Brittany, whose
country and language differ from
France, observes unique ceremonies
known as "pardons" in honor of
local saints, usually unknown to the
rest of the world. The most color
full pardons, semi-pagan festivals
of the dead dating from pre-Chris-
tan days but transformed by the
church, are those of Saint Nicodeme,
the one at Quimper, and the one
rhonoring the grandmother of Jesus
at Sainte Anne de la Palue.
The pardon of Saint Nicodeme
centers attention to the blessing of
the cattle of the region. Cows are
decorated with ribbons and cock
AIDES and are led in the procession,
with drums beating and banners
flying. The animals are then auc-
toned by the church beadle, their
purchase bringing good luck to the
stables where they are taken.
The Bretons believe that Saint
Anne, the mother of the Virgin
Mary, was a Breton by birth, who
before the birth of the Virgin voy-
aged to Palestine where she made
her home. This Saint Anne is real
ly an early goddess of the sea, but
no one thinks of her in that role,
as the widows of the sea, the wom-
en- of lost fishermen, form the long
procession behind the silken ban
ners as it proceeds to the church
for vesper services. The Goddess
OF the Sea was an imperious and
cruel goddess, but under her new
name canticles are sung.
Nowhere else in Brittany does one
see such rich and gorgeous cos
tunes. Every peasant who owns
one of these costumes carefully pre-
serves it year after year in a spe-
cial cupboard which is never
opened except for the day of the
pardon.
The finest is worn by the eldest
laughter, at whose dressing all the
family takes part, the grandmother
giving advice as she dresses, in
structing the girl to walk In the
procession with stately steps Of dig
nified mien. The changing OF the
itanies during the procession, the
muffied tapping of the drums, the
silken banners carried by the men,
make the scene as glittering and as
medieval as anything to be seen
anywhere in the world.

Bell Too Violent;
Skaters Windows

CINCINNATI.-For As years a
giant bell has hung in the tower
Of. st. Francis de Sales church
here, but during that long period
it has swung only once to sum-
mon worshipers. :
The bell. weighing $4,000
pounds, is reported to be the
largest swinging" bell in the
United States and the second
largest in the world. There's good
reason why it doesn't Swing"
however.
When the bell was hung in 1898,
it swung according to schedule.
The thunderous note of the bell
shattered windows in the imme-
date neighborhood and parish
priests ruled then it was to re-
main immobile thereafter.

Plants Store Up Water

Plants of the desert regions (the
Karroo or Kalahari desert, or
Namaqualand in South Africa) store
up water for the dry season and
take on queer shapes. Many as
sumo the form and even the color
OF stones. Some actually retire into
the ground and look out on life
through "windows"-the flattened
translucent tips Of their leaves.
Many cover themselves with thorns
or leathery skins. Some turn the
edges of their leaves to the sun.
Some are like a child's bali or a
melon. Many bear beautiful flowers.
