said
His emphasis on impartiality of
distribution followed recent reports
that the United States is vitally
interested in a Loyalist victory in
the Spanish conflict. Although this
nation ostensibly has maintained a
strictly neutral stand, there has
been considerable official agitation
to repeal the present embargo on
arms shipments to either of the bel
ligerents on grounds that it works
to the detriment of the LoyalistS
and is advantageous to the Insur-
gents.

He was responsible for getting

Common Sense

A doctor would tell you that the
best thing to do with any ailment
is to get at its cause. If you're
constipated, don't fiddle with
makeshift remedies. Find out
what's giving you the trouble!
Chances are you won't have to
look very far If you eat just the
things most people do. Most likely
you don't get enough bulk! And
bulk" doesn't mean just a lot of
food. 1t means a kind of food that
isn't consumed in the body, but
leaves soft bulky" mass in the
intestines and helps a bowel
movement.
If this is what you lack, your
ticket is crisp crunchy Kellogg's
All-Bran for breakfast. 1t con-
tains the bulk" you need plus

Wagner Act and now the wage and
hour law and such statutes as the
Walsh Healey Act governing labor
standards on Government contract
jobs, are pieced together, they reveal
that many of the original objections
to the licensing of corporations have
been ignored through the setting up of
special Government agencies to fix
standards for corporation operations
even without Federal licensing sys-
tenn.
If the Federal license idea did result
in a clearing up Of the conflicting
controls operated now by different
Government agencies, and If it made
explicit what now is abstract or what
is nowadays left to the bureaus
vaguely to define at will, maybe the
O'Mahoney plan would get more
support. But, anyway, the important
point for business men to bear in mind
is that the forthcoming inquiry by the
National Economic Committee may
some day command their enthusiasm
instead Of their skepticism, as, little by
little, the crazy-quilt Of regulation and
petty prosecutions under a dozen diff
ferent laws and agencies is revealed
as one Of the major obstacles to
economic progress in America.

The Political Mill
Senate Committee Shows Stronger Hand to Check Use
of Money and Influence in Elections

while It voices satisfaction with the
present political situation and the
prospects Of the next election, shows
evidence now and then that 1t Is wor-
ried. The New Dealers who &C.

bers Of the Senate and House who

100 per cent have stirred up a hor-
nets nest. There are old-time Demo-
Gratis in Congress today who would be
glad to see Republicans win an ap-
preciable number of seats in the
House and Senate now held by Demo-
Gratis. They are not saying so openly.
But 1t is a fact, nevertheless.
They believe that losses in Congress
would be a salutary lesson to the
President and to those who have
supported the idea that the admin
istration should have the right to say
who and who shall not be elected to
Congress. How far this sentiment
percolates into the rank and file of
Democrats it Is impossible to say. But
If a number Of them just went fishing
on election day, or should vote for
some candidate other than q New
Deal Democrat, the result might prove
startling.
Republican chances in Pennsylvania,
Ohio, Michigan and Iowa seem par
ticularly bright-chances Of gaining
a considerable number of House seats
not to mention electing a Governor.
and Senator here and there. In
Kansas the Democrats have a real
battle on their hands-despite the
fact that two years ago the President

If the Democrats lose q material
number Of seats In the House and
six or seven seats in the Senate, the
administration will have to make up
its mind whether it prefers to call

The reorganization bill, the admins
tration might figure, would have a
better chance in the old Congress
than in the new.
Such a special session Of Congress
would be violative of the recently
popular idea that Lame duck" Con-
crosses should not be permitted to
legislate. The Constitution was
amended so as to prevent as far as
possible any legislative action by men,
bers Of Congress who had been de-
feated for reelection Senator Norris
ardent supporter of President Roose-
welt, fathered the constitutional
amendment.
Most of the Democrats in Congress
are strongly adverse to special
session Of Congress this fall They
do not believe that 1t is necessary or
that 1t would accomplish anything Of
great value If it were called. Yet now
and then the idea is pitchforked into
prominence with suggestions that more
relief money will be needed before
January and the opening of the new
Congress, and legislation for the rail-
roads will be essential.
