NEW YORK, Oct. 28.-You car
count the major unbeaten and
united football teams on your
fingers as the season enters its
final October week end and by
tomorrow night you may not even
have to use your thumbs.
But barring a continuation OF
the upsets that have raised eye
brows from coast to coast, the

remain that way for at least an
other week.
In the greatest apparent dan
ger tomorrow is the No. team,
California. The Golden Bears
winners of all six starts to date,
invade UCLA for a game that
probably will decide the Pacific
Coast championship.
UCLA is back on the winning
track after having been dumped
by Santa Clara in its only re-
versal in six appearances, and
promises to provide the biggest
remaining hurdle on the California
schedule.
Notre Dame, Army and Okla
homa, who outrank California in
that order in the latest Asso-
ciated Press ratings, all figure to
win more or less as they please
tomorrow.
The fighting Irish, idle last
week, return to action at Balti-
more against a Navy team that
has lost three out of five and has
been hard hit by injuries.
Army will be at home against
Virginia Military Institute and
should win .breezing. Oklahoma
also plays on its own field, against
Iowa State, which took a 800
drubbing by Missouri last week.

of reports about the condition of the
American stock market. They interpret
the markets listlessness as a clear sign OF,
"a general worsening" of our economic out

suggest, at least indirectly, that we are
headed for an About bust.
Nothing could be more pleasing to the
Kremlin than such development. The

Congress and Economy

Representative MACK, NcpuUucdu, VI
Washington may not get very far with
his novel proposal for a special economy
session OF Congress this fall, but the fig
ureS he cites on growth of the Government
in the past twenty years justify his con-
Germ over continued free-spending tend
encies. Ia
In two decades, for example, the number
of bureaus and commissions In the Fed
eral establishment has increased from 800
to 1913. The number of employees on the
Federal payroll has grown from $1,000 to
over 100000. The cost of the payroll has
risen from about one billion to almost six
billions year. The tax revenues exacted
from the citizens have scared from about
four billions in 1880 to more than forty
four billions this year.
Mr.. Mack points out that during these
twenty years Congress has held twenty
four regular and special sessions, each of
which has increased Government spending
and most of which have burdened the
people with new taxes. He thinks 1t is
ibout time that Congress should hold
session devoted exclusively to the objec-
tive of reducing spending.
6ub congress never SeeUlS 10 generate
much enthusiasm for self-imposed special
sessions. It's enthusiasm for economy is
even less pronounced. The, Washington
Representative suggests that the proposed
special session could well consider the
Hoover Commissions proposals for Gov
eminent reorganization. There are, as he
says, opportunities in the reorganization
field for the saving of up to three billion
dollars year. The practical difficulty of
doing anything very effective about reor-
ganization in q special session is great,
however. The session would have to be
at least two-month affair, If the re-
quirement for a sixty-day period of con-
sideration of any administration reorgani-
cation plan is to be met. And the men,
bers would not relish the idea of staying
in special session that long, just to meet
a legal requirement of the reorganization
law.
Anyway, there is no necessity for a spe-
cial session on reorganization. The present
regular session could take effective action,
first, by reaching agreement on the
Senate and House. passed legislation now
deadlocked in conference, and. second, by
postponing adjournment long enough to
validate any reorganization plans sub
mitted by the President. That would be
an epochal economy move that would en-
nance the record of the 81st Congress for
all time
