That is the amount which it is proposed to spend for a probe of lobbying in Washington for which the tom-toms already are beating and for which the smoke screen already is be- ing created, The big bad wolf in the picture is the man- ner in which the administration’s “death sen- ehind the Scenes in Washington WITH RODNEY DUTCHER Averts Tugwell’'s Purple Suit Vanishes. agreement policies. to have handled the fair trade practice sections of the vol- untary codes, NRA the labor end. labor provisions, Cummings put down his foot. “Nothing doing,” quoth he. “We would only be run- ning into a mare's nest.” Others soon agreed with Cummings that require- ment of labor provisions would be only a bid for trouble. And thus flew away the last vestige of the NRA idea, leaving NRA nothing to do but ruminate among sta- tistics and the records of its past glory. raed FARM “GOBBLING” GOES ON Those who thought farm mortgage foreclosures had ended with arrival of AAA and the farm credit admin- istration may have to revise their opinion to the mere assertion that there would have been far more fore- closures if those agencies hadn't appeared. Despite moratoria and higher farm prices, banks, life insurance companies, and mortgage companies continue to Ughed large parcels of independently owned farm Jand. Government figures aren't up to date, but they show an increase of from $294,000,000 worth of corporation- owned farm land in 1930 to $70,000,000 in 1933—and the figures don’t tell the story, because farm land values slumped plenty in that period. + But there was a huge number of farms in process of foreclosure in 1933 which have since been foreclosed, and latest confidential reports show a general increase in farm sales this year. Also, many AAA officials have been startled by an Towa State college study which shows thet 10.1 pes cent of the acreage in Secretary Wallace’s home state is Hemel a aaa a aa compared with only 7.2 per cent se @ eae HUEY aoa UPLIFTER y Long was lolling among his bodyguards at his Broadmoor apartment and discussing with ‘a visitor a mutual friend who writes articles on economics. tence” clause in the Power bill was beaten, but we may be very sure that the other side of the question will be exposed also and that influ- ences which were strong enough to defeat the president’s views will see to it that a few licks are put in for them. Nothing new will be brought to light ex- cept as to detail. Any American old enough to cast a vote has known for some time that the voice of the people as a whole is about the last thing that registers in Washington. Genus Americanus has no one to lobby for him except his elected representatives—and they are too busy listening to this or that interest, faction, clique or minority to keep their minds on the main job in hand. The result is the kind of gov- ernment we have been getting for lo these many years. The general strategy is pretty well estab- lished, even for the uninitiated. It is to see this one or that one, bring pressure to bear here or there, see that certain promises are ~nade or a specified number of telegrams sent. The result, in the end, is to either confuse our lawmakers or make them so jittery that they find it convenient not to have any opinion at all. By exposing the details of the system, how- ever, a service may be rendered to the people. Who knows when’ someone less ominous than @ power trust bogeyman or a pie-counter satel- lite may want to use it? And if there had to be an exposition of the whole ugly mess the power fight is by far the best example available. There was plenty of lobbying on both sides, pressure brought to bear from one side being countered from an- other. Whether the result was good or bad is be- side the point. The disturbing thing is that both the legislators and the people submit to it. The most important result which can come out of the investigation is a realization on the part of the people that theirs is the responsi- bility of electing a higher type of congressman. ie Tribute to a Great Invention ‘The bite of caviar, the delicate flavor of the mush- room, the headiness of rare old cheese may be the de- light of the gourmet but the piece de resistance of these United States and the symbol of our cosmopolitan democracy is that luscious, wholesome, spicy, toothsome handful—the hamburger with onion and pickle.

He had much experi- ence with it when he was governor of New York, and he has reached conclusions about it which are quite fixed and definite. The other reason is that the origi- nal bill, which the house rewrote, was one of the outstanding products of the “young liberals” of the admin- istration—sometimes called the “brain trusters.” For a long time they had been polishing up this piece of legis- lation, and looking forward to its passage. What happened to their handiwork was accepted generally as the hardest slap congress has given this group of young presidential ad- Mr. Roosevelt has been defeated in the house on other issues, but some- how this defeat seemed to go a little nearer than any other. There was something of the personal element in it. eee Power Interest’s ‘Silent Ally’ Many factors were involved in the house maneuvering, and it is a matter of dispute which contributed most to the final outcome. It has been a long time since a vote on any bill was accompanied by 80 many charges 6% “lobbying,” on both sides. The house committee @esignated to investigate these alle- gations doubtless will stir up a lot of dust, but that need not mean it will discover any solid facts which are not already known.
