FDR LEADS IN STATES PRIMARIES

WASHINGTON, April 4 - President Roosevelt and the 3rd term issue held commanding leads over the opposition of Vice President Garner as votes were tabulated in presidential primar ies in Wisconsin and four New York districts.
 Wisconsin Republicans simul- taneously gave Thomas E. Dewey an encouraging but inconclusive lead over Sen. Arthur H. Van denberg in the Republican con- test for the states 24 convention delegates.
 Roosevelt's lead in Wisconsin was more than two and one-half to one, with one-quarter of the votes counted.
 In the sixteenth New York dis trict, where Garnerites campaign ed most vigorously, Roosevelt led two to one, and in other dis tricts as high as five to one.
 The Presidents name was en- tered in the primaries without his stated permission, but his vic tories were interpreted to mean he can have most of Wisconsin's and New York's delegates if he chooses to run.
 Meanwhile Fusion reports oust ed the last vestages of the Pen dergast machine in Kansas City, electing John R. Gage mayor. He

The Washington
 Daybook
By Jack Stinnett

WASftlNGlON- IS eaSler lo get by with murder than it is to get a bill through Congress.
 According to the International Association of Police Chiefs, if you commit a murder and the murder is discovered, you have from one chance in ten, to one in four (depending on what city you're in) of getting away with it.
 If you are in Washington and in Congress, you have about one chance in 25 of getting a bill written into the statute books as an honest-to-gospel law.
 At recent session of Congress there were nearly l8,000 bills in troduced. Of these, a few more than 700 got the Presidents John Hancock and went into the stat utes to help or hinder you and me and Joe Doaks.
 Considering that there have been 76 Congresses each sitting for a couple of years, that may seem like an internal number of laws. It is. But consider that a vast number of these were pri- Vate bills-measures which gave some worthy widow a lifetime pension-or provided Federal aid to a small districts river system or did this and that for some in dividual or little group.
 These bills are numberless and to cope with them, the House has an Objector's committee, compos ed of three Democrats and three Republicans. One objection from the Objectors generally is enough to make measure worth less than the paper it was written on.
 In the Senate bills can be in- troduced only in the last two hours of any legislative day. The catch is that if business is rush ing, a legislative day may last for months of calendar days.
 Bills introduced in the Senate are referred to one of the 37 standing committte by the Vice President. The committee may refer it to a subcommittee. There are hearings, redrafts, re- concentrations, majority and minority reports, the committee of the whole and the intermin- able wait for it to show up on the calendar (unless the steering com mittee prescribes that it should have preference over everything else).
 A lot of bills go to committees and never come to light again.
 In the Senate, bills are intro duced by being read. In the House, they merely are dropped into a hopper by the Speakers desk, to be gathered up by the house parliamentarian and assign ed to committee. Many disappear into that hopper as into a grave.
 Once a bill get up on the floor, 1t has got to stand Joe Louis barrage. In the House debate on a bill is limited to one hour and amendments must be germaine. In the Senate, there's no limit on debate (hence the filibuster- and any subject under the sun. The anti-lynching amendment is favorable method of making the tail of a kite so heavy the kite won't rise.
 If the bill is lucky enough to get by one House, it has to go to the other. Differences of opin- ion in the Houses generally are settled in joint committee, the of which are undebated. Then, if the bill passes its's ready for the Presidents signature-or veto.
