White House Versus Congress
Congress has recovered "indepen-

S the President, who is concentrat-
ng his efforts on the war and is pay
ng less attention to civilian prob
ems. Congress has shown unexpected
,trength regarding such civilian is

economy, some restrictions on ra-
ions. However, the Congress and
he President stand together on mea-
lures that will help gain Victory.

| $3.50 of Salary
| Back to Treasury

President Roosevelt turned back
to the Treasury $3.50 of his S75 ,000
salary in l942 under his order linn
iting salaries after taxes to SOS, ,00C
a year.
That was disclosed Yesterday in
the Budget Bureaus table of re-
ceipts for the fiscal year 1943, sent
to Congress along with the Presi-
dents budget message.
The Presidents order limiting
salaries was issued in October, 1912,
but subsequently was nullified by
Congress. While aimed general at
holding salaries to $25,OOO after
taxes, it also made allowance for
certain fixed obligations including
insurance payments.
Mr.. Roosevelt is the only Gov
ernment employe whose salary was
large enough to be affected by the
order. What effect the order had on
persons privately employed is not
disclosed in the budget figures since
any reductions made in their SAL
aries were reflected only on the
books of The employers rather than
going 20 the Government. ,

Osgood Roberts Runs De Luxe
Army Rest Camp in Italy

group Of women who stuck by their
villas despite the growing shortages
of food and fuel.
A surprisingly large number of
men and officers who visit the camp
on seven days leave come there
entirely to rest and not to dance.
They are to be found strolling along
the narrow mountain paths, beside
which roses still are blooming in
late December, and exploring the
alleys Of the quaint little villages.
Associated with Comdr. Roberts in
running the Camp is Maj. Carl
Woodward, New Orleans architec-
tural engineer, who has succeeded
in getting into working order again
all the public utilities.
Comdr. Roberts is a former news
paperman and former public rela-
tlonS counsel who left the editorial
staff OF the Washington Daily News
In 1929 to take over the duties of di-
rector of public relations for the
Mayflower Hotel. The 4O-year-old
officer also had operated his own

tions to set up a de luxe leave
center where men indiscriminately
weary of the rain, mud, filth and
danger of war-men who have not
slept between sheets for many
months or tasted much of any
thing except &C" rations-could
know for a few days luXuries such
as few of them have experienced
before in their lives.
1t was originally the idea of 1t
Gen. Carl SpaatZ, then commander
of the American air forces in the
Mediterranean theater. He told
Comdr. Roberts and 1t. Col. Robert
Snowden, Memphis hotel proprietor
in civilian life. that he wanted a
setup equivalent to that of luxury
hotels in peace time. There was
to be music and dancing, profess
sional staff cooking by expert
chefs. Comdr. Roberts and Col
Snowden had the closed hotel and
the villas, but very little else to
start toward the realization of this
dream.
Above all, there was to be moth
Ing military about the rest camp.
A soldier coming there was to be
almost exactly in the position of
a wealthy American tourist visit
ing there before the war. He was
to get the same sort of service and
the same sort of privacy-but for
a dollar-a day instead of S25 a
day.
Within little more than a month
all this has been accomplished and
it is preventing lot of nerve crack
ups and justifying the expense a
hundred times over.
The program of girls for the SOL
diers was one of the hardest to
meet in setting up the rest center
It was planned from the first to
have plenty of music and dances
and a staff of about 40 Red Cross
girls largely filled the needs. Their

women to 'beStir themselves"
On the theory that women should
stop thinking merely about their
rights and start thinking of their
responsibilities, a group of women
have launched campaign to make
women 'bestir themselves to get
about the business of the world"
Specifically, they want more wom-
en- to take more important jobs
policy making jobs from post on
the school board to top-ranking
Government jobs.
The idea originated at conferences
of the National Achievement Awards
Committee, past recipients of the
women's award and representatives
of nine organizations which are now
pledged to spread the gospel to their
membership.
Award Winners Explain.

Crothers, the playwright, and DR..

Council here-explained the idea at

They explained they were not in
terested in women as women but in
achieving rounded society, and
women represent a large group which
has made very meager contribu-

Fundamentally, they admitted,
they are trying to change the pat

Before any other manufacturer even started
