SACRED POLITICAL PLEDGE

Among Speaker Sam Rayburn's
cronies in the House of Represen-
tatives, a political pledge is as
binding as a death-bed promise
Or at least, Sam himself so regards
it. If he didn't, the makeup OF the
present House committee probing
campaign expenditures might be
different.
When the committee was being
appointed, fair-minded Rep. Clinton
Anderson, New Mexico Democrat,
asked Rayburn not to put him on
the committee as chairman unless
he was given working majority
L am not going to conduct a
matchmaking probe" the tall New
Mexican told Rayburn. This has
got to be a fair and impartial in
quiry And it can't be if you APP
point Gathings, reactionary Arkan-
sas Democrat, who will work hand
in glove with the Republicans"
Il promised Gene Cox of Geor-
gia I'd appoint Gathings to that
committee" Rayburn replied, but
I'll ask Gene if he won't release
me from the promise"
However, the reactionary Cox,
knowing what Rayburn wanted
suddenly disappeared He didn't
come around the Capitol and
couldn't be found at home
So Rayburn, to whom a promise
is sacred and who is one of Cox's
best friends, felt he could not keel
Congressman Gathings off the com
mittee without release from Cox
Even when Anderson came to Ray
burn and told him the room II
the Wardman Park Hotel where
Cox was hiding out, the Speaker
declined to act.
But since the time was getting
short, Rayburn called Gathing.
into his office and, in the presence
of Anderson, gave him a lecture.
Nov, if I put you on this com.
mittee," he said, its got to pt
understood that you're not going Il
vote with the Republicans. It's go
to be understood that, on matter
of procedure, you must vote witt
the Democrats. On matters of de
tailed fact, naturally, your con
science will be your guide"

about $50 100000 each month. This is $l0000000
more month than in 1943.
Federal farm relief" is officially estimated this

In other words, although total farm income has
doubled twice since 1884, Federal aids now are

of the butchers and neon manu-
facturers will need money, but most
of them can't borrow at the banks,
However, the Smaller War Plants
Corporation is now studying this
problem and is prepared to loan
them money if their reputation was
good and if they had been in busi-
ness a certain number of years
before war broke.
This is just one small sector OF
little business which may have a
tough time getting back on its
feet, but which Smaller War Plants

 The velocity of the wind is ob- tained from an instrument called an anemometer. The instrument used by the Weather Bureau has either three or four cups attached to a horizontal cross-a central spindle The wind blowing against the cups causes the spindle to turn. Even a very light breeze will cause the cups to revolve By the use of gears ano electrical contacts signal is giver for each mile or one-sixtieth of g mile of wind
 By counting the signals for one minute the speed in miles per houl can be obtained Or by the use o1 electro magnets each mile is record ed on a sheet of paper. This sheet of paper is placed on clock drum and calibrated for time. The volcity in miles per hour or the total wind movement for any given length ot time can be obtained from this sheet of paper
 The anemometer is installed in a location free from Instructions which would affect the wind path thereby giving true wind velocity and true total wind movement fol any given length of time.
