The W Washington
Merry Go Round
BY DREW PEARSON
tMa,or Robert 8. Allen on active duty.)

WASHINGTON. Behind IN e
visit of ex-Ambassador Joseph p.
Kennedy to the White House recent
ly was the fact that Joe was about
to publish book. The President,
hearing about the book, and know
ing something of Joe's mercurial
temperament SO far as Roosevelt's
foreign policies were concerned,
suggested that Joe send him a
copy.
Among other things, the Presi-
dent was fearful that Kennedy
would disclose incidents during his
term as U. S. Ambassador to Great
Britain which would offend the
British during wartime.
When FDR received the book, his
suspicious were justified. 1t had
the qualities of sure best-seller,
but at the expense of lot of peo-
pie, including not only the British
but Harry Hopkins.
So the President suggested to
Joe that he drop in for a visit.
And for about an hour the Presi-
dent argued against publication OF
the book now, indicating that it
would play into the hands of Axis
propagandists.
Il don't care what you say after
the war is over. joe" declared the
President in effect, but now is the
wrong time to say it"
Kennedy finally agreed to hold
up publication. This has been a
blow to his Republican and isola-
ZIONIST friends who are still urging
him to publish the book before the
1914 elections. They figure it would
be the best campaign document of
the elections.
Meanwhile, it seems certain that
the Prodigal will be given a job in
side the Administration. Joe's re-
turn is meeting with lot Of OPP
position from various New Dealers,
but the President himself always
has been fond of Kennedy even
when they differed vigorously. He
also realizes that Joe has great
influence among Irish Church
groups, some of which are not too
enthusiastic over the war.
Also Kennedy did an outstand-
ing job of organizing the Securi-
ties and Exchange Commission, and
has knack for getting along with

lations of scrap at home.
 The state quota for scrap is 10 pounds of metal for each person and 800 pounds from each farm. Tn or der to reach this quota, which will total 15,000 tons, Seth Low Pierre pont, chairman of the State Salv- age Committee, has emphasized that "This is not a job for a handful of men in each community - 1t is a statewide responsibility which must fall on all our shoulders and be carried proudly to successful con- cllsion."

 Connecticut's scrap holiday is the only one reported SO far in the na- ton and is designed in most com munities as the tip-o6 for Q quick campaign, with collections on the 30th and 31st. Several cities, how- ever, will make their collections this coming Saturday and use the holi- day as a clean-up for the removal of large accurnulations in cellars and factories :.
 The necessity for the scrap drive this year arises from a serious de- crease in the flow of scrap from dealers yards as compared with last year and the expectations that the reduced rnanpower in the scrap in- dustry will be unable to bring in and prepare sufficient scrap to keep steel production at 100 per cent

Under the leadership of Counec- ticut newspapers, mobilization for the lo4S scrap drive was intensively under way today. Virtually every community in the state moved rap- idly in response to Governor Ray mond E. Baldwin's request that Oct. 27 be set aside as @ Scrap Hoh- day.
 Anxious to repeat their perform ance in the scrap drive of last year, school children, released in many communities during the issuance of Ration Book No. {, have already be- gun the building of neighborhood scrap piles in the cities and towns all over the state.
