ARIZONA
IN WASHINGTON
By BOB MERKLEY

Less government participation in
business is expected by Congress
man John r. Murdock. he stated
on his arrival in Washington for the
first session of the Seventy-sixth
Congress. He said he feels the peo-
pie favor minimizing vital changes
in business regulation. He antici-
pates a "pegging" of the gains
which have been made. and less of
experimentation.
The Congressman expressed
desire to see some alterations in
the wage and hour legislation
passed late in the last session. He
explained that, while he and other
western lawmakers favored the
general idea of the bill as it was
passed. they want a modification
of the law as it affects the mines
of the West.
Life in a western mining camp
is different affair from the old
routine of eastern living A man
who wrests his daily bread from
he depths of the earth cannot
ffcrd TO lie around and become
soft during a forced vacation of two
or three days in every week. He
prefers to spend more hours in the
mine. and later to have real vaca-
ton where he can enjoy it. There
is precious little recreation in a
smelly bunkhouse, listening to
windy stories you have heard
thousand times before.
Western members Of Congress
have again scored a victory in the
last-minute extension of the Presi
dents silver-buying policy. The
Westerners have been working
feverishly for that extension, and
even asked that it be raised from
6464 cents to II cents, but it was
still not known until the last day
whether the President would come
through. Mr.. Roosevelt may make
his decisions before they are need
ed. but he saves the news for the
most exciting moment. His
authority to extend the silver
subsidy lasts only until June 80,
1899. 1t was granted under an
amendment to the Agricultural Ad-
iustment Administration Act of
1888.
Congressman Murdock is already
member of three House Commit
tees, but hopes that he may be
assigned to one other of general
interest to the West and of particu-
lar interest to Arizona. The old
Committees are on Indian Affairs,
Irrigation and Reclamation, and
! Public Lands. The one he hopes to
get is River and Flood Control.
But not even the President him
self can say what the Seventy-sixth
Congress may have up its sleeve.
He can only wait with the rest Of
us, and wonder what will be this

DR.. Studebaker emphasized that
whether broadcasters desire it or

And What
They Do
Sir Seymour Hicks
ExpIodes Laugh
Bombs at 78
BY LEMUEL F. PARTON.

Word comes from London that Sir
Seymour Hicks, who, last Septem-
ber, became official bucker-up Of
British civilians, sailors and soldiers,
is exploding laugh bombs all over
the kingdom, which eventually may
blow down the Siegfried Wall like
the trumpets of Jericho.
Sir Seymour, who had a similar
Job In the World War, is England's
favorite light comedy actor, a lead
ing producer and actor manager, a
writer of consequence and a rallying
point for both masses and classes,
as they both claim him as their own.
He is 70 years old and last month
celebrated his SD year on the stage.
He started life as a callboy In
London theater. His next Job was
as an undertaker's mute, a hired
mourner, sometimes filling in as an
emergency pall-bearer and the like.
He wore black well and did nicely in
his new career, until his memories
OF the theater obtruded at an un-
fortunate moment. He was walking
solemnly behind hearse, when a
distant band struck up tune, which
carried him back-stage again. He
swung open the door of the hearse
and called out, THE overture be-
gins now, sir"
That shunted him right back to
the theater, which, by all accounts,
he never should have left. He has
written and produced ga plays and
is the author of eight books of rem.
lnlscence, comment and criticism.
He was knighted in 1885, and May
falr made a tremendous fuss over
him. with similar cheers from the
populace. In the World War he or
ganized concerts and shows for the
soldiers and kept up a drum-fire of
spirited humor which rated him as
the leading empire morale-builder.
He was here first in 1890, has made
many later visits and has many
friends in this country. Currently

statutory limit.
In the second place, Vice President
John N. Garner has announced his
candidacy for the democratic presi-
dental nomination. His candidacy
is ''unconditional"--in other words
he will make the race whether the
President himself is candidate or
not.
In the third place, the third-term
issue is likely to raise its head on
the floor of one or both Houses of
Congress, unless the President
should say unequivocally that he
will not be a candidate for re-
election.
New Taxes Rumored.
In the fourth place, more and
more reports are circulated that new
taxes will be attempted
In the fifth place, battle over
the Wagner Labor Relations Act
and the Labor Relations Board is
almost sure to develop. particularly
in view of the present revelations
before the House special committee,
headed by Representative Howard
Smith of Virginia, which has been
investigating the administration of
that law.
In the sixth place, 1t may be ex-
pected that the Republican minority
will become more active than it has
been at any time in the last three
years.
Altogether. the opening of the
congressional session has all the
appearance of opening a Pandora s
box. Politics promises to play an
important role in all the proceed
ings that follow.
One school of thought is to the
effect that the President will be
able to maintain control in the leg
islative body by withholding any
statement about his future plans
that Is, whether he will or will not
be candidate for reelection. An
other has it that the President
could solidify the Democratic ma
jorities in the Senate and House by
announcing definitely he will not
seek another term in the White
House.
Garner Widely Supported.
In the House, the Democratic
leader is Representative Sam Ray
burn of Texas. Mr.. Rayburn was
Vice President Garner's right-hand
man in his campaign for the presi-
Dental nomination in 1882. and he
is firmly back of Mr.. Garner in his
present quest for the 1910 presiden-
tial nomination. The Vice President
went to the bat strongly for Mr.
Rayburn when the House Democrats
were in the process of selecting a
new leader, following the death of
the late Speaker Joseph w. Byrns Of
Tennessee. and the selection of
Speaker William B. Bankhead Of
Alabama, who had been Democratic
leader of the House.
1t is easily conceivable that any
move on the part of the New Dealers
in the administration to ditch Mr..
Garner might cause a serious breach
in the Democratic machinery in the
House 1t is conceivable that the
third-term threat, if carried forward
strongly, might have a similar ef-
feet. This might result in making it
exceedingly difficult for the admin
istration to get what it wants at
the hands of Congress.
In the Senate, where the Demo-
cratic majority is more pronounced
and overwhelming than in the
House. Vice President Garner has
many friends. Outside of the group
