CAPITOL CHAFF

Representative Al Elliott of Cali fornia, former prize-fighter, threw Federal workers out of his cffice when they became abusive while trying to argue for the Pay Raise Bill for Federal employees. Elicit bumped the two Federal workers heads together, then walk ed them out Of his office . :. Senator Wallace White, Maine Re- publican, refused to sign the re- cent report on reorganization of Congress if it contained data on broadcasting Congressional debates. Other Congressmen on the Com mittee proposed two short-wave stations, one in the East and one in the West. to let the people hear what their representatives say on the floor of Congress. Bills to broadcast Congressional proceed ines have been introduced by Sen actor Claude Pepper of Florida and Representative Jchn Coffee of Washington.

RADICAL IDEA

One of the most impractical and half-baked noitcal suggestions we've heard in some time came from figure who is not unnoted for half-baked schemes Secretary of Commerce Henry A. Wallace. He suggested that Coneressen who oppose their party on major issues should be banned from seeking elec- ton on their party tickets
 MT Wallace's apparent intent is to strike at Democrats who don't always follow the New Deal or administration dictates He evidently supposes that his scheme would insure steadfast champions Of his brand of liberalism
 Actually we can think of no more stultifying influence on American politics than such rule would be At one blow it would wipe out the very valuable counterplay of ideas within party and would convert the congressional delegations of both parties into virtual automatons incapable of independent thought or action
 Who, for that matter is to decide what is the

TWO Gc0D CONGREssMEN

party" stand on a given issue at a certain tune? Certainly this is not a pre1ogatiye to be handed unreservedly to any who occupies the White House because it would vitiate the constitutional separation of powers if the President could say in effect that the Congressmen of his party had to vote his way major issues leave the party No matter how wise or popular the President don't think the American people would condone such practice. AS matter of fact the late President Roosevelt fared worst at the polls when he sought to purge Congress of men who weren't entirely obedient to his will
 If the people of any party don't approve of the stand of a member of Congress, they have means of registering their disapprova through the party primary or convention To say that excommunication from the party should be automatic for differences of opinion on major issues is-well it's ridiculous.

The Washington Merry-Go-Round

to continue peacetime military con- scription for the first time in his tory.
 Continuation of the draft is, of course, very debatable subject. However, few people-except cer- tain Congressional moss-backs- would deny the State Department money to carry on intelligence" abroad.
 The amount it requested was only s4.15O.326, compared with hundreds of millions spent for intelligence" in wartime. What some key Con- gressmen don't seem to realize is that money spent for Intelligence after a war starts is like building a hospital after a smallpox epi- demic is in full swing. Like modern vaccination, it IS intelligence before a war starts which really counts.
 Note-A lot of people are won dering what's happened to Demo- cratic Representative Louis Rabaut o1 Crosse Point Park, Michigan, hitherto considered an able Con- gressman. He is the subcommittee chairman who insisted cn cutting the heart out of the State Depart ment Appropriation Bill.

TRUMAN STANDS PAT

President Truman reaffirmed to members of the House Committee on the Minimum Wage Bill last week that he will not hesitate a moment about vetoing the Bill il it comes to him with the inflation- arv Pace Amendment tackled on it..
 Legislation by rider is alarmed bad public policy" he told Repre- sentatives George Outland of Cali fornia, Frank Hook of Michigan and Andy Biemiller of Wisconsin.
 The three Congressmen had call ed White House Secretary Dave Niles day earlier to see if he had any suggestions to help in the fight to bring in a minimum wage bill without the crippling Pace rider. That night Outland was called at home and asked to be at the White House, next day along with Hook and Biemiller.
 They left their Presidential con- ference with definite assurance that the Chief Executive wants the original Minimum Wage Bill, with cut extraneous matter.
 That's the Bill we want" Tru- man told them, and we're going to keep fighting for it."

His Weight in Diamonds
(New York Times

(New York Times
 The Mogul rulers of India received tribute equal to their weight in gold. The Aga Khan, who is not a secular ruler at all and who weighs 243 pounds and ounces went them one better recently in Bombay he received his weight in diamonds to the reported value of S2200000 If the Aga Khan wished to do so he could keep this money for himself Having other means of his own he will employ it to help members of the Ismaili sect of Mohammedsn, of which he is the spiritual head His other means, which believed be stupendous, come from the voluntary contrlbu- tions of millions of his followers.
 The Aga Khan is a prince above princes His biography in the British Who's Who lists his honorary degree from Cambridge his British honors and decora tions his chairmanShip of the Indian Round Table Deegation of 1880 and 1881, his presidency of the League Nations Assembly in 1887 his victories in the Derby his eeven-gun salute and almost incidentally, his religious role. He is in fact, descendant of Fatna, the daughter of Mohammed, and as such is believed by his followers to have divine attributes. These are visible Western eyes Indeed he does not parade them for the benefit of his cosmopolitan friends On the worldly scale he is character with two phases: an Indian leader who has tried to unite Indias Moslems, and has done good deal for the economic welfare of his Indian followers many of them converted Hndus; and an international playboy of a type not so common as it used to be-
 Indians who are not getting enough to eat now and who face the prospect of considerably less if the threatened famine is averted by large imports of foreign grain might wonder a little about the Aga Khans spiritual qualities. But of his greetings on the occasion of his anniversary celebration came from Mahatma Gandhi.

7s CENT CLUB

Congressman Hook, House spon- sor of the original Minimum Wage Bill, assured Truman that there was a majority of four in the House Labor Committee against the Pace Amendment, and said he was confident that the House also would reject the Amendment when the measure comes to the floor. He reported that a steerig committee of 75 members had been formed to push the Bill
 Outland and Biemiller also ad- vised Truman that sentiment was increasing in Congress to raise the legal minimum pay standard from the 65-certs-a base, approv- ed by the Senate, to 75 cents.
 Our slogan is '75 for 75," they explained, referring to the 75 mem- bers on the steering committee, and their goal of 75 cents an hour
 Of course, we still may have some trouble with the Rules Con- mittee," said Hook. We are not sure what will happen there, or what kind ot rule they will give us for floor procedure.
 Truman laughed at this and said he appreciated their problem.
 NO one knows what will happen in that Committee he agreed As you probably know, there is fel- low-statesman from Missouri among it's members"
 He referred to conservative Dem ocrat Roger c. Slaughter. former Mayor of Kansas City, who repre- sents Trumans home district and is one of the most ti-Adminis- tration members of Congress.
 Note-Congressman Slaughter is being nicknamed the Ham Fish of the Truman Administration, be- cause, like Congressman Hamilton Fish of Roosevelts home district he opposes the President on every 1 thing.

HOROSCOPE "The stdrs incline
 but do not compel"
WEDNESDAY, APRIL IT
HEART AND HOME

The stars are friendly to family heads who are assured of guidance in their dealings with home prob lens. Prospective brides are also under favorable influences and may plan their weddings without fear of untoward events.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS
 Maladjustments in the nations transportation system which have unfavorable effects on business will be charged in part to Govern ment program which subsidies some forms of transportation but denies aid to others. The railroads will complain bitterly, but will not ask for subsidies.
 NATIONAL ISSUES
 The "isms" and "ologies' funda- mentally opposed to democracy will presently find American industry increasingly more vocal in opposi- tion to their unsound doctrines. Business has too often let others argue its case but is beginning to see the error of it's ways in this respect.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
 Sharing knowledge of atomic energy with all nations is soon as inevitable, since the secrets are bound to leak out in time and are better freely shared than lost by theft.
 Persons whose birthdate this is are promised by the stars; A year of unusual activity in the fields in which they are most interested, with substantial material gains re- sulting.
 Children born today will have every opportunity. to achieve sue- cess in worthy professions and may accumulate some wealth.
