WASHINGTON.-It is generally
possible to forecast in broad out
line what will happen in the session
Of congress that winds up a Sec
ond term Of an eight-year national
administration. That broad outline
will include the annual appropria-
tons for running the government,
the promotion of several legisla-
tive proposals designed to aid the
political party in power when its
presidential nominee gets out on the
hustings, and much talk by rep
resentatives and senators. Con-
gress, and Washington dateline,
make fine springboards. and the pol
iticians who are i'm make full use
Of the opportunity.
Since the last session of congress
in the Roosevelt administration Is
upon us, 1t seems that a prediction
on several phases is indicated.
1. The coming session is going to
be longer than some of the politi-
clans would like Contrary to the
average Of such sessions. the nation
al Legislators are likely to be here
until almost the middle of June.
The length Of the sitting probably
will be determined by the dates Of
the Democratic and Republican ma
tional conventions, and there Is ev-
cry reason to believe these will be
later than usual.
2. Appropriation bills will occupy
a great deal Of the time in the early
weeks Of the session, as usual.
But contrary to Uhat
has been the situation re-
specting the money bills,
there is going to be a de-
termined effort to make
them the center of an
issue, a political focus.
Tangled up with the appropria-
ton bills this year will be delicate
question involving the national debt
because President Roosevelt Is CO.
ing to put up to congress the ques-
ton of increasing the present nation
al debt limit from As billions to so

Is the mist Of possible third term
decision by President Roosevelt. I
do not believe Mr.. Roosevelt Is go
ing to run again. but he has not said
so. Politically. Of course, he would
be foolish to announce 1t too early
for the reason that once he takes
himself out Of the race, the wild
scramble begins and Mr.. Roosevelt
loses control.
The political possibilities Of the
coming session are many. There is,
Of course, the evident move on the
part Of New Dealers, to drag the

That has the dual eff

to patriotism and of
helping Uoters to forget

UNCLE SAM LAUNCHES SUPER AIR PLAN

Far reaching and sure to be felt in marked degree in many quarters including Alaska is the big program for construction of 1000 U. S. Army airplanes in accordance with contracts let in Washington this week.
 Eighty six million dollars go immediately into action for the purpose. Leading American air craft manufacturers now throw their factories into high gear. Pacific coast as well as eastern factories have been awarded con- tracts ranging from nine to six teen million dollars each.
 Skilled men for such works will be in demand in every fac tory. After them will come the demand for more pilots and avia ton mechanics to attend the ships.
 Thousands of youths will be required-and here is verdant field for young men seeking a field of permanent employment with high rates of pay.
 Aviation training schools in connection with colleges are a part of the program. Alaska should and no doubt will get her share of attention in these mat ters.
 New opportunities are open ed-and to those with a keen eye to the future here is their opening. Qualify and ride along with one of the biggest programs ever launched in America.

ALASKA SETTLEMENT
 PROPOSED

Alaska comes in for a lot of front-page national publicity re- gently on the strength of the re- commendation of Secretary Ickes based on the report of Under Secretary Harry Slattery. The big idea is to let down the inn migration bars to settle Alaska with exiled or refugee Europ- cans.
 A point is made that Scandin- avia, in the similar parallel and with similar climatic conditions and resources, supports millions. This long has been patent to all who know their Alaska.
 The fact Alaska also has vast mineral, timber and agricultural possibilities awaiting the quick ehed touch of industry is no new story.
 To give this northern Empire a teeming population long has been a dream of those acquainted with the facts. But to maintain the ideals of Americanism and Am efican institutions it is a natur- al assumption the ideal people for the region are Americans, cul tured and steeped in American traditions.
 How to introduce a predomin- ant alien element and maintain the institutions of American dem ocracy is a problem. And even admitting that the immigration bars be lowered and peoples of foreign land be admitted to the territory how and who is to fin ahce them. Should not the Ameri cans anxious for new opportun ities come first, to form predom inant mass to assimilate the alien element.
 Statehood may be visioned for Alaska if all the population and industry dreamed of be realized. But under present conditions newcomers and even long resi- dent AlaskanS have vote.
 There's a lot of basic legisla- tion, financing and maneuvering to go through before the big dream can even begin to evolve into legislation.
 Alaska is brought into the lime

TWENTY THOUSAND BUNDS IN U. s.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 16 (P)- Fritz Kuhn estimated that dues paying members of the German American Bund totaled 10000 persons after testifying that mem bership records of the organiza- tion were destroyed at his order because of prospective investiga- tions.
 The Bund leader, appearing un expectedly before the House com mittee Investigating un-Ameri- can activities, said he had only partial records of dues payments. The destruction of membership records, he said, was ordered when an investigation seemed likely by the Dies committee and also by a New York state legis- lative group.
 Kuhn said the Bund came into existence at Buffalo in March, 1886, after he had determined to form a political orginzation composed only of American cit zens.
 When Chairman Dies demand ed to know why Kuhn wished to form a political organization com posed only of American citizens, Kuhn said he wished to form a pol itical organization independent from Friends of New Germany" which included German citizens.
 He displayed emotion for the first time during the hour or more of testimony because Rep resentative Dickstein was raising hell about US down here at Wash ington. We wanted to shut his mouth because he was making wild charges against us and try ing to smear us" Kuhn shouted.

day of each week during court hours, usually 10 a. m. to 5 p. m.
 Until today, they had been start ing operations mornings at 5 o'clock, in order to have considerable work completed each day before the 10 o'clock deadline. But complaints of residents of neighboring homes tmd hcstelries brought about an order to cease, from Health Officer Dr. Edward J. Godfrey.
 Last Friday afternoon City Court Prosecutor Frank Healey conferred with Judge Inglis concerning the situation, in view of the interest of Dr. Godfrey in the case.
 When he emerged from the con- ference, together with Dr. Godfrey he conferred with the wreckers, and as a result the operations did not start this morning until17 o'clock. No work will start until tomor- row at 2 a. m., but the wreckers will confer with Judge Inglis at 9:45 to determine whether they will be within their rights to commence at the earlier hour of a. m.
 Prosecutor Healey will attend the conference with Judge Inglis and the contractor. The work which has been delayed somewhat by the courts orders of cessation, is in its final stages.

sociation. The regular city election is deferred to Nov. IA, on which date the voters will choose either seven councilmen or a mayor and other regular officials, depending on the fate of the city manager charter in the referendum.
 MT. Quinlan has the following to say:
 City manager for Waterbury: a drastic purgative mixed by Social ist Senator Secor for the Water bury municipal stomach. And, in- cidentally, if the citizens of the Brass City adopt it at the referen- dunn election it will doom the chances of Senator George T. Culhane to be mayor of his adopt ed city. A Republican sop to good brass company war chest contrib utors, swift kick in the direction of Democratic Cor Socialist ma jorities in state elections"
 Adoption of the charter would have an important effect on state politics, for the disintegration of local party organizations would almost certainly result. The char ter provides that councilmen shall be nominated, by petition, with only 200 signatures being neces- sary. This would take the party organizations out of power in local politics, and there would be little incentive left for them to be active in state politics.
