is not to be made by one committee
instead Of two. 1t seems silly to have
House and Senate competing in such
q matter and it is to be hoped some
way will be found to coordinate the
two. Otherwise, it is difficult to see
how a multiplying confusion can be
avoided. However, this has nothing to
do with the point that the House and
Senate action is another demonstra-
ton Of Presidential inability to con-
troll Congress and warning of even
less ability to control the next Con-
gress should Mr. Roosevelt be re-
elected. Everyone is glad he has re-
turned from his months vacation re-
stored to health. 1t would be a fine
thing, indeed, if now, thrusting aside
those who have personal interest in
keeping him in the White House in
definitely and are constantly telling
he must run again. Mr.. Roosevelt
would face fully the facts and grasp
the situation in which he and the ma
ton will find themselves if he is
again elected.
But, there is slight chance he will
do that His personally selected Ma
tional Committee Chairman has al
ready announced that he will be nomi-
mated. Others-CIO labor leaders,
New Deal Senators, jobholders, re-
cipients of Presidential favors in one
form or another, left-wing publica-
tions and publcists-are all clamor-
ing for the fourth term The trouble
about the President is that he seems
not to have single detached, dis
interested, independent friend able or
willing to sit down with him and tell
him the truth. Practically all his in
Inmates and advisers are in his Ad-
ministration. Most Of them are de-
pendents. Not one would risk his dis
pleasure by telling him the reasons he
shouldn't run. This is a handicap
nearly all Presidents have had, but
there was never one as badly handi-
capped this way as Mr.. Roosevelt. He
hasn't had "no" man near him since
the late Louis Howe died.

Parent eucher Activities
BY MRS. p. c. ELLETT, President,
D. c. Congress Of Parents and Teachers.

There have been many columns
written about the. mile o. Dimes"
project, and many thousands of dol
lars have been collected during the
years 1t has been done. And, Of
course, the real reason for the sue
cess of the venture is because the
idea of helping crippled children has
universal appeal. Much research
has been done as to the causes and
possible cure for infantile paralysis,
but there still remains a great deal
to be accomplished before we can
ltruthfully say that the disease has
been conquered.
While there are several great
foundations devoted to medical re-
search, all of which are doing won-
derful work, none has more gen.
eral appeal than this one established
by the Mile O. Dimes" for it pro-
vides an opportunity for everyone to
have part in very worthwhile
project, and thus become a peoples
foundation.
A dime is very small contribu-
ton to make to such worthy cause,
and if every citizen in Washington
contributed one, there would in truth
be mile of dimes, s,"-perhaps sew
eral. So during the next week, stop
by the Capitol Theater, where the
headquarters has been established,
and drop your dime in the "collec-
ton box" And if you feel you'd
like to donate more than one dime,
do SO by all means! Because every
dime contributed adds just that
much more to the money which will
be available for fighting one of the
worst scourges of childhood. ,

taking her part In the war effort
and comes to town for four full
days work each week at the Red
Cross Blood Donor Center. She is
q volunteer staff assistant and is
doing one Of the best jobs in that
work. Miss Boy-Ed never permits
anything to interfere with her vol
unteer work and for more than a
year she has reported regularly at
the center. Each week end she
joins her mother. Mrs. Karl BoY-Ed,
at Callander, her home near Berry
vile. Mrs. Boy-Ed is the daughter
of the late Rev. DR.. Alexander
Mackay-Smith, who was for some
time rector Of st. Johns Episcopal
Church on Lafayette Square.
The need for new blood donors or
for those who are willing to give
again is great, the weekly quota
for the local center being 1000 pints
a week. This quota is only for the
blood made into plasma which is
used on the battlefield. There is
an additional need for the type of
blood which can be given to any
and all in need of transfusions.
Because of its perishable qualities,
this whole blood can only be used
in hospitals and although the plas-
ma given on battlefields frequently
Is enough, it often saves life only
until whole blood can be admins
tered.
