Take Senator Minton, for example.
Minton and some Of his fellow Of
fee holders would have the public
suspicion there is something sinister
about certain organization opposing
the administration bill for reorganiza-
tion of government departments and
agencies.
Since the senator limited at dark
doing by this organization, the Amer
lean Federation Of Labor has slammed
the reorganization bill good and
plenty
Will the Senator hint at dark doing
by the federation? Probably not
Fact Of the whole matter is that
opposition to government proposals
lis not discreditable, UNLESS unlaw-
full and evil methods are used in the
opposition.
If Senator Minton brings to light
unlawful and evil methods by any
organization fighting the reorganiza-
tion bill, then he will have reason for
talk and action, too.
But trying to scare off an individ-
ual or organization by limiting at
improved evil doings smacks of the
Ku Kllx Klan, which once figured 50
prominently and unfavorably in Sena-
tor Minton's own state of Indiana.
A Virginia village near Washington
has been exercised over the shooting

promised the Governments ef
forts would be directed toward
increasing production.
He informed business the Ad
ministration's goal is a "con
stantly increasing" national in.
come to be accomplished through
stepping up production and EN-
ployment. The Governments agri-
cultural, industrial, housing, and
monetary programs are being di-
rected to this end, he explained.
For the time being, no renewal
of So-called "pump-priming" ex-
penditures will be reSorted to by
the Treasury. The President hopes
that relief spending, Federal insur-
ance of housing loans, expansion
of bank credit, the new farm bill
and resumption of lending by the
RFC will afford the necessary
stimulus to business.
PRIMING WAITS. RESULTS
If these fail to bring the desired
result, officials feel certain a new
expenditure program will be tried.
Coincident with his declaration
that certain commodity prices
should be increased, the President
directed the RFC to resume lend
ing to industry, the railroads and
other eligible borrowers.
The corporation practically
ceased it's lending last October as
part of the Administrations drive
for economy. In relaxing his
october economy order, the Presi-
dent made available a fund of
81, 500, 100000 for Government
loans.
BANK AID URGED
RFC Chairman Jesse Jones said
the loans will be made to both
small and large industry on "rea-
sonable" collateral. He informed
the nations banks that the Cor
poration is willing to cooperate
with them in making advances to
industry.
Meanwhile, the reactions in
financial centers to President
Roosevelt's commodity price OBJ.
jective was unenthusiastic.
This was attributed to the fact
that the President firmly rejected
further devaluation of the dollar
as a recovery measure. Although
the Treasury is allowing some OF
its gold to Seep into the credit
structure, the President said he
is opposed to far-reaching infla.
tionary action.

The Nazis, until a few days ago
outlawed in Austria, paraded
into Chancellor Schuschnigg's po-
litical organization showing no
signs Of disappointment over a
pledge voiced by Hitler to pre-
vent the Nazi party, as such,
from interfering in Austrian in
ternal affairs.
REGARDED AS GESTURE
Hitler's pledge was openly re-
garded as a gesture to preserve
the forms of AuStria's fading in
dependence, and the fact that Der
Fuehrer made no pledges regard
ing the actions of the Fatherland
Front was not lost on the Nazis-
or on anyone else.
Anti-nazis complained bitterly
that Hitler will be able to control
Austria just as efficiently with his
followers in the Fatherland Front
as with his own Nazis. Tatherland
Front members already are deco.

.BEAUTY- Gl0nMng

By Alicia Hart

The truly chic woman is chic be- cause she chooses makeup, coiffure and clothes that really do something for her.
 When she enters room people never say, What a beautiful dress" or Look at that hair" or T won der what shade of lipstick she's wearing" Instead, they say, What 8 stunning woman"
 And therein lies the secret of her success. Her coiffure, makeup and clothes dramatize but never domi- nate her.
 There ought to be sound req son for whatever you do with your hair. And the fact that movie star wears hers that particular way is not a sound reason.
 If you wear your hair up on top of your head it ought to be because it is much more becoming up than down, not because you have heard that they have put their hair up. If face is short and round, that's reason enough for wearing few curls on top near your forehead. If it's long, that's your reason for keep ing hair flat on top and doing some thing to build it out at sides.
 Always, the smart woman's req
