Events of the last few days indicate clearly that the Administration is prepared to go a considerable distance in urging State legislation to further public |works, including notably municipally owned utilities and ventures into slum clearance and low-cost }housmg. A letter from the President covering such points was sent to Governor-elect Marland of Okla- homa, and later a similar appeal to Governor- elect Earle of Pennsylvania. It is announced also that the Public Works Administration is preparing suggestions to Governors of all the States whose Legislatures meet within the next few weeks. | That includes forty-one of the States.

It has long been a Communist maxim that the end justifies the means, that a dictatorship of the proletariat cannot be firmly established without a ruthless suppression of free speech, in the sense of fundamental criticism. Events in Russia illustrate what inevitably happens under such a policy. The Government may begin by suppressing only those doctrines that seem in its eyes to threaten its e ence; but instead of gradually relaxing its curbs, it tends to tighten and increase them, until soon it is suppressing the slightest deviations from “the party line” The phenomenon is familiar to the| most casual student of religious history, who reads of men burned at the stake, not because they were atheists, but because they were held to be “heretical” on points of doctrine so fine that only the rare A woman in Portland, Ore., found $4 worth of |gold nuggets while cleaning ‘a duck. = Now we | know what this term “just ducky” means.

MUNITIONS PROBE HITS * LITTLE SNAG Senator Nye and His Com- mittee Having No End of Trouble By HERBERT PLUMMER WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.—Sena- nis colleagues on the committee were trying to persuade the Senate {to advance them sufficient money to carry on, the other side of Capi- tol Hill was heard from. Unexpectedly, Representative Mc- Swain of South Carolina, chair- man of the Military Affairs Com- mittee of the House, announced that his committee had ordered an investigation, beginning immediate- ly, of the proposal of a universal draft (embracing the idea of put- ting men, money and materials in the same category in times of war). And, to add zest to his announce- ment, McSwain said that “among the first witnesses” to be called for which Democrats believe they should have credit? — -, SUMMON GIRL SECRETARY IN MUN.

First, when the Nye committee was going at full strength, bringing out allegations about activities of the so-called “merchants of war,’ the White House selected a com- mittee of its own to study means for taking the profit out of war. The move “is amazing to me,” said Nye. “Thc ation will continue,” saic v berg of Michigan, a member ! the com- mittee. “So far as wc we concern- @d, we're going to march gdown the middle of the road” and caryy out structions, said Clark of Mis- souri, another member of the com- mittee. Chairman Nye, when the 74th congress was convened, almost im- mediately went before the Senate and asked for money to continue his investigation.

They also remember that at the |time Nye expressed his “amaze- | ment” at the appointment of the White House committee, he added that the cause of his “amazement” was the fact that “efforts now | should be made to seem to check | and halt the work of this commit- | of alacrity.

R. Wilder, Chairman of the Board of Ship Building Companies, The summons grew out of the testimony of William Claven, Sec- retary of the Metal Trades De- partment of the American Feder- ation of Labor, who said she :was present at a conference on August 3, 1933, in which Wilder and Alex Gravem, Washington attorney, par- ticipated. Gravem, the witness said, told Wilder of an unnamed fixer who would deliver building con- tracts to Wilder for a ‘‘considera- tion.” Gravem cenied the report. chiadeiipk ) Aged Trio Baptized s YOUR v., Jan. 30.—Rev.
