BOWIE, Nd, April 8.-Haricot
considered the greatest race horse in
the Argentine, soon may be pur-
chased by an American syndicate
headed by Alfred Gwynne Wander
bilt. president of the Maryland
Jockey Club, which conducts racing
at Pimlico.
Sired by Hunters Moon in 1895,
Haricot is a half brother to Joseph
E. Widener's great Sickle. He is re-
ported to have won a mile race in
1855, which. if repeated in this
country, would be good enough to
win the majority of the mile stakes
run annually. My informant says
that Haricot's purchase price i
around the 100000 mark.
Ally Vanderbilt, who now is in
California, will head East during
the next 10 days. therefore readers
of The Washington Star can expect
to learn upon his arrival whether
| the deal has been conSummated
Vanderbilt doesn't hesitate to spend
big money for horse flesh: that is
if he thinks the thoroughbred can
win or prove his worth in the stud,
therefore it won't be surprising ii

and white silks over American tracks

That through ten and three-score weary years
Should stumble on, beset by pains and fears,

Wisdom of Constitution Is Seen
In Revolt of House on Spending
Not Politics Alone Involved in Congress Opposition to
Presidents Spending Policy: Response to Will of
People at Last Reflected in Members Action.
By WILLIAM BRUCKART
WNU Service National Press Bldg, Washington d. C.

The refusal of the house to act can
not be catalogued otherwise than as
rejecting the viii Of the people, for
the politician who knows his onions
seldom is seen going in the wrong
direction if the votes of his constitu-
ents are concerned.
Whether the economy wave that
swept through the house In the last
few weeks Of q session that is des-
tined to be historically important
will be maintained in the next ses-
sion of the Seventy-sixth congress,
of course, is a matter of conjecture.
1t is 10 be noted that primaries for
nominations come along early next
spring and summer. Following those
primaries IN natural sequence are
the November elections If the men,
bers Of the house and senate who
have baked az running the federal
government further into debt take
the same position In the session
starting next January, then ! am in
clined to the opinion that our nation
will be on the way out Of its trou-
bles. I always hedge statements
about congress, however, because
politicians viii sometimes place par
ty above principle They might
deem il necessary to buy few
votes with taxpayers money in ad-
vance of the primaries next year.
Whether the representatives and
senators have such ideas IN mind, or
not, I wish the voters would put ev-
cry one Of them on the spot by de-
manding to know whether they are
going to let this nation go any fur
Their into debt. The debt now is so
large that each of US is going to pay
and pay and pay in taxes, and after
we have passed on, our children and
theirs viii pay.
