practiced political activity contrary
to the good of the state and used
"flattery to gain office"
How badly Carol himself Jared
when he abdicated last week was
still a matter Of conjecture. The
king left a vast personal empire
under the shadow Of appropriation
when he went into exile, but he had
shrewdly converted many of his an
cestral holdings into cash long ago.

Whether he carried any Of this
cash with him in his flight was
not known but he and his small
retinue, including the red-haired
Magde Lupescu, travelled on a ten

Millions Of dollars worth OF his

In Washington

WASHINGTON - A new eplsoae
is due in the long-standing 70
over the National Labor Relations
Board, and it's likely to start I'm
folding any day now.
Simple fact Of the matter is thai
the whole labor board situation is
lust about where it was a year
ago, despite the Smith committee
Investigation, passage by the
House of a drastic Wagner act
amendment, and appointment tc
the board of DR.. William N. Lesser
son, the moderate" who was te
take some of the heat off by Ell
fecting divers reforms.
Helping to bring things to a eli
max is the fact that the admins
tration let Chairman j. Warren
Madden's term expire without
naming a successor. Legally, this
left the board with only two mem
bers-Dr. Leiserson and Edwin 5.
Smith, who have practically never
Ol dlly LA11lS.
This delay was due to the fact
that while there was important
pressure on the White House to
give Madden another term, there
was equal pressure against it.
Madden couldn't be replaced with
out disturbing such people as Sec
rotary Perkins and Senators Wag-
ner and Thomas of Utah; at the
same time, it became known that
if Madden were re-appointed DR..
Leiserson would ask to be relieved.
Either a re-appointment or a new
appointment would bring up the
whole labor board issue in the Sen
ate, which would have to confirm
the appointment. The House
amendment to the Wagner act has
been sleeping quietly in a Senate
committee; if it can be kept there
until Congress adjourns it autona-
tically vanishes, but if a genera:
labor board debate should center
attention on it and cause it to be
brought out it might get passed
which the administration decidedly
doesn't want.
MAY BREAK
IN HOUSE
It probably will be in the House
of Representatives that the row
next breaks forth.
The House succeeded in doing
one thing to the labor board: it
abolished the appropriation for
the boards economic research Gil
vision, thus Gas it thought doing
away with the job of nr. David
saposs, who was branded before
the Smith committee as one Of the
boards leading radicals. The
board, however, nullified this by
recognizing its staff and continu-
ing DR.. Saposs and his staff in
their old jobs under a new title.
Plan of the boards foes in the
House now is to take another swipe
at the same old target. Before the
session ends a new deficiency bill
will have to be voted; strategy will
probably be to attach to it a rider
specifying that none of the labor
boards appropriation may be used
for the salaries of DR.. Saposs and
his associates. Furthermore, that
rider can be made to apply to the
money voted to the board ! S I
June, so that the custer would be-
come effective at once.
COMMUNISM
NEXT TARGET
Lastly, it must be remembered
that the Smith committee is still
in existence-and it would not be
surprising if it should swing into
brand-new inquiry into the matter
action again. If it does, look for a
of Communists on the boards pay
roll.
Commonest item Of gossip in
Washington is that there is COM
munism in the boards staff: n o t
as much as the boards foes sus-
pect, but still an appreciate guam
tity. For some reason the Smith

EVENING CLOTHES
MATCH DAY CLOTHES

Fur muffs and hats are prominent
in the picture. It's smart to wear
fur hat and muff right now with
fall dresses as well as later on with
a winter coat.
The twin line is new. In other
words, except for length, your eve
ming clothes can match exactly your
day clothes. Notable example is
Wilson Folmar's floor-length polo
coat of natural camels hair, shown
with a day-length polo coat in
identical material. Also Bergdorf's
evening trench coat of gold kid.
Except for elaborately formal
