 When the draft extension bill was passed, the pay increase amendment came out of the anti Administration ranks.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2 - You don't know it. but among other things the defense. program may change your drinking habits.
 The supply of ethyl alcohol, one of the most widely used ingredients in defense production, is beginning to run low and new sources must be found to make 1t. The only im- mediately handy source are whis- key distillers.

WASHINGTON One of the early prerogatives given to members of congress by the Pounding Fathers was the right to send their mail at public expense. This was g privilege granted for the purpose of enlightcning the electorate re- sarding their acts in Congress to defend themselves and also, of course, to help in the all-important job of getting reelected.
 This privilege has cohtinued- and rightfully so-up to the pres ent, even though similar privilege is denied the men in the army camps, who appreciate mail more than almost anything else.
 Last week, however, an FBI truck backed up to an office on Rhode Island Avenue, previously exposed in this column as having Nazi cno- nections, and carted a batch of documents down to the Justice Department.
 In that truckload were tn e ranked envelopes of various Sen ators and Congressman, including the late Senator Lundeen of Min nesota Senator Nye of North Da- kota; Senator Worth Clark of Idaho. now investig ting the movies; Representative Day of H. linois; Representative Sweeney of Ohio; Representative Tinkham of Massachusetts; and ex-Representa- ivetive Thorkelson of Montana.
 These envelopes containe speeches of the various Congress- men, but the envelopes were un- addressed. In other words, the gentlemen who possessed this cher ished privilege of free franking, had permitted it to be delegated to a Nazi-supported organization which could decide where the prop aganda should be sent.
