help her chart the zig-zags in the

Miss Elliott has the air of a dean
who could understand that some
times it might be important to cut

preston of being a confident eXecu-
tive-one who years ago organized
the women of North Carolina to get
out and get the vote
She long has been interested in
welfare problems. She is president
Of the North Carolina Conference Of
Social Service and was formerly ac-
tive in the State Relief Administra-
ton. She sees in her new job an
extension of these interests.
"A nations strength is based on
the well-being of it's people, who
should be well fed and we'll housed -

all that can" to help a Nation

keeping an eye on the amount Mr.
and Mrs. America must pay to eat
and live as the Nation turns to
strengthening its ramparts.
The work is going to interfere with
her golf.

Miss Elliott hopes to get in some

a quick, friendly smile-and no one

mitted she didn't know at the mo-
ment just how she would begin her

Paid Lobbyist for

To Courts Denounced

Senator Minton. Democrat, OF In
diana asserted in the: Senate yes
terday that paid lobbyist for the

turers" was seeking passage of the
Fo-called Walter-Logan bill in order
to sabotage" indirectly work of ad-
ministration agencies.
| The bill would facilitate appeals
TO the courts from administrative
rulings of Government agencies.
Senator Minton made the asser-
tion in reply to demands from
Chairman Ashurst of the Judiciary
Committee and other members that
the Senate consider the. Walter

told the chamber that silently and
secretly" Government officials were
working "undercover" in an effort

ator Minton said the big trade asso-

Barkley Shouts Defiance.
Majority Leader Barkley, who as
serted that defense, relief and tax
measures were more important, and
should lie considered first, told the
Senate that he had received letters in
support of the Walter-Logan bill
showing that proponents wanted to
r'hamstring" the National Labor
Board, the Wage-Hour Administra-

"If we are going to do that" he
shouted, I'VE ought to have the
courage to do 1t by an act of Con-
gress and not pass the buck to some
court"
Senator Ashurst argued that the
bill would merely give to a citizen
injured by an administrative ruling
the right to be heard in court.
