Genuine Career System for u. S.

The Ramspeck Federal Civil Service bill put
into the hands of the president the essential tool for the
creation of genuine meguded system in federal
government 1t it's enacted may well lead to the new
deals most valuable reform
The House has passed the bill with apportonment
amendment which civil service experts call burdensome and
unavoidable. Should the senate retain this amendment,
chances the president will make of the authority
conferred him. States far in excess of quotas
that it would take long while to catch to them
and make their constituents eligible for civil service status
But the senators will probably cut out the amendment for
the sake of their own present and future appontees
In this event, Roosevelt be expected to apply the
acts provisions Notwithstanding anywhere from 2l0

the confidant TO whom F.D.R. ex-
pressed his favoritism toward
Cordell Hull and fear Of Farley
nomination was Representative
Bob Doughton. The veteran North
carolinian was visiting the White
House to repeat his published
refusal 10 run again. His reason,
he told the president, was his
fear that the third-term issue
would defeat him. II was then
that Roosevelt revealed he did
not intend 10 seek a third term.
The chief executive also added
that he favored Hull and doubted
Jim's ability to make the grade.
Doughton. whose state bolted AL
Smith for Herbert Hoover in
1928, then reconsidered and
agreed TO run once more.
A politico so close to Jim
that the bitter words might have
fallen from the latter's lips said,
in commenting upon F.D.R.'s
1910 secrecy and his reference TO
the national chairman's ambi-
tons: Jim can catch all the
balls thrown at him these days.
He used to play semi-profes-
sional baseball. But he can't
catch foul balls"
Harold L. Ickes came within
half an inch Of resigning from
the Roosevelt cabinet few
weeks ago. He erupted violently
over the discovery that his per-
sistent attempt to steal the for
estry service from Henry Wallace
was doomed to failure on Capital
Hill. Here is the inside story:
When the secretary of the in
terror wanted to run for mayor
of Chicago, the president was
loath to see his cabinet break up,
and begged Ickes to forego his
mayoralty ambitions. In return
F.D.R., who had been Indifferent
to the Ickes-Wallace scrap, prom
ised to effect the transfer at
some more appropriate time.
Key congressman, however, warn
ed Roosevelt that the senate
would never approve the change,
and F.D.R. forgot about it. 1t
was then that Harold toyed with
the thought of quitting and even
preached it to some of his closest
cronies.
The president is understood to
have weakened under the threat,
and is still casting about for
some way to make the shift with
out submitting it to the senate.
His strategists, however, have
warned that 1t would promise
terrific cutlery of protest from
foresters and politicians, and OBJ
served that he cannot afford
such setback by his own con-
gress on the eve of convention
and election. Whatever scheme
he has in mind will be postponed
until after the November ballot
ing.
Although Ickes does not know
1t, the one man who arouses and
stiffens congressional opposition
to making him the nations No. l
forester is his under-secretary of
the interior-Ebert K. Burlew.

Nav Solve Third Term Riddle

Politicos well diplomats, waiting feverishly
for Sumner Wells from Europe He may bring back
with him the final answer to the third term riddle
The nature of the rSecretary of States report will
certainly determine the presidents next in foreign
affairs (see Ray fuckers release plan) If it contains
practical peace possibility the best informed
pect F. d. R. to at toward dramatic reaza
ton of it. In the unlikely event that the begerens should
agree to peace conference Mr. Roosevets dominant aim
would be achieved Shrewd observers don't doubt that he
would then be glad to leave the White Houseand perhaps
cit in on the negotiations American emissary
But if Wees brings back peace possibility which can
be matured only considerable period of time, there
would be powerful added pressure F. d. r. to keep the
helm. Anything he attempted would probably depend for
its his continuance in office Given chance to
do something constructive toward settlement of the
administration members agree that he would renquish
his desire for retirement and undertake to bak the third
term tradition
Ardent New Dealers make bones about the fact
that they're hoping for just this sort of compusion

possibility is their most potent claim for lease

HOROSCOPE
WEDNESDAY, MARCH Is

Sinister signs are discerned in
the horoscope for today. The
stars encourage conferences and
grave consultations which may
precede positive effort. Mars is
in an aspect presaging conflict
which Is intense in its character
and may involve great numbers
Of fighters. Anxiety may ex-
tend to many nations now at
peace.
Heart and Home: Women
come under sway which should
cause them to concentrate upon
practical work, especially that
which is essentially in their
realm as a housewife and
mother. Girls should prepare
for service as clerks and nurses.
Training for something that will
be OF value to the nation in time
Of stress Is urged by the seers
who seem TO envision exacting
experiences by the end Of this
year and the whole of 1941.
Business Affairs: The outlook
for abe next few months in COM
merce and trade Is promising.
Thrift is urged and warning is
given that the prosperity of to-
day may merely precede de-
preston caused by the far
reaching effects of wars in Asia
and Europe. Agriculturists will
profit through the season when
foreign food problems mean
much to American farmers.
National Issues: President
Roosevelt continues under
favorable direction OF the stars.
His ruling planet is Mercury.
and he is strongly influenced by
Uranus, fact which presages
his continued support OF the
working people. Labor will con-
tribute TO the national election
In a manner not previously ex-
ercised. The president has the
advantage of obtaining his
hearts desires through patient
waiting. and this year Is to bring
about surprising political results.
International Affairs: Planets
believed 10 encourage suspicion
and treachery will be in sinister
aspect this month. Evil por-
tents are seen by those who read
the stars. Unless there is
miracle performed through peace
negotiations the month will
make history OF the broadest
scope and most TERRIBLE in its
massed waste Of life. Stain is
to be the dictator to dictstors
in a supreme decision.
Persons whose birthdate II is
have the augury OF a year OF
fairly good fortune which may
depend upon wise direction Of
energy and industry. Women
should be lucky.
Children born on this day may
be tempersmental and intuitive.
bright Of mind and quick in
thought. These Piecidians may
BE- too fond Of change 10 make
rapid progress in a profession.
