n-What IL the reason for
W special order discharge given
an army officer under the pro-
visions of paragraph lab, AR
605-230, as amended by Circular
No. 1874, WD. Aug. IL, l94l:
The officer In question reverted
to inactive status, and then his
resignation WAS accepted. He
served from February, 1941, I'M
til October, 1941. j. S.
A-The reason for this dis
charge is the recommendation
and acton of Redistribution

whereby officers who are ineffi-
cient or otherwise unsuitable in
their current assignments may
be reassigned TO a position they
are able 10 handle efficiently, or
may be denoted 10 a grade COM

WASHINGTON Scene
BY George Dixon

ONE of the most instructive
" publications that has come
out OF the government printing
office in some time is Our
American Government" a list of
279 questions and answers on
the history and functions of our
governmental setup.
II is so instructive I would
like 10 print the whole thing
but / am afraid you would not
care 10 absorb so much knowl-
edge all at once. Therefore /
VIII split IT up and run a few
questions and answers each day.
Here is the first batch-and,
if there are any observations or
comments in parenthesis. they
will be mine:
Q-What Is the proposed
twenty-second amendment ?
A-This il a proposal to re-
peal the sixteenth amendment
and provide, instead, that while
Congress shall have power to
collect Income taxes without ap-
portionment the maximum rate
OF tax shall not exceed 25 per
cent.
Q-What is the origin of the
word Candidate" q?
Ain the days OF ancient
Rome when IL was a democracy
and people voted for their con-
suls and praetors, those asking
for the office appeared in the
forum dressed In white To sig
nifty their purity. The Latin
word for white was candida
tus,' hence our present-day
candidate"
CAS- every one knows our cam
didates are 9944 per cent pure.

Q-Under what circumstances
may the president call a special
session of Congress?
A-The president may con-
vene Congress or either house,
on extraordinary occasions
II il usual for him in calling an
extra session TO indicate the ex-
act matter which needs the at
tention OF Congress. However,
once convened, a Congress can
not he limited In the subject
matter which it will consider.
president Truman. who
called Congress back a month
earlier this year because of the
Jap surrender, is finding this
OUT
ON what circumstances
may the President adjourn
Congress?
AIN cases Of disagreement
between the two houses with
respect TO time of adjournment,
the President Is empowered to
adjourn them to such time as
he shall think proper" No pres
ident has yet exercised this
power; there IL some question
whether IL may not apply solely
Ia extraordinary sessions.
Q-Do members of Congress
become wealthy by reason of
their service?
A--Members accumulate lit
tie, II anything. by reason of
their service. Representatives
every two wears and senator's
every six years, are usually
called upon to spend quite size
able sums for campaign ex-
penses.
Yeah, I think I've heard
some talk about that!D >.
