So, not long ago, he invited Governor Bricker to spend a day on his Connecticut |estate and invited various GOP bigwigs from the State in to see the Governor. Later, when the incident was re- lated to Senator Bob Taft, he re- marked: “Sam never stays with anyone more than a few weeks.” JESSE JONES—LOBBYIST The Honorable Jesse Jones doesn’'t contine his political activities to Congress. He is equally adept with the Army, except that the Army won't take Jesse’s lobbying lying down Some time ago, the Secretary of ver of Cleveland celled on Hull and asked for his views. Hull read the proposed resolution with painstak- ing care, then cagily replied: “1 cannot tell you that I favor it, because the State Department can take no position in these mafters.” So, finally, Senator Taft asked| his brother Charles, who works in | the State Department, to ascertain Hull's views. Charlie Taft took the matter up in a State Department | meeting and got word that the De- partment had no objection to the! resolution, whereupon Senator Taft | went ahead. | Commerce persuaded the Provost But subsequently.

In Congress, there is a strong feeling that, inasmuch as the bars against Jewish refugees have been | let down in this and many other ! countries, homeless Jews should nozi be barred from their original home, especially in view of the money they have poured into it for irriga- tion and reclamation projects. These projects probably have made it pos- sible for Palestine to support around | 4,000,000 people, yet there are oOfily 60000 Jews in Palestine today. Furthermore, the Jewish Refugee Committee, of which Hull is chair- man, has recommended that, be-| cause of difficult transportation, Jews in Europe.be sent to Mediter- ranean areas rather than across the Atlantic. - | All this has aroused a strong feeling in Congress that the orig-l inal Woodrow Wilson-Arthur Bal- | four declaration favoring Palestine | @s a national home for the Jews| must be kept alive at least to the| point of leaving Palestine open to Jewish immigration, despite the| current British declaration to the| contrary. 1 NOTE—Lone Wolf Senator Lan- ger of North Dakota intends to ask | some pungent questions of the Ad-| ministration regarding the whole garbled run-around on the Jewish| migration question. ) RUN-OUT ON WILLKIE Precocious Sam Pryor, charming | vice-president of Pan American | Airways dnd GOP National Com-| mitteeman for Connecticut, is tak- ing a run-out powder on Wendell Willkie. | 1t began several weeks ago when | Sam went out to Ohio to confer| Governof Bricker and sug- | gested that Willkie might become -Secretary of State in Bricker’s Cab- | inet. This was done without Will-| kie knowing a thing about it. When word leaked back to him, naturally | nant, bawled out the Provost Mar- hal’s office.

This belief was being expressed in aeronautical | vircles following the announcement from Moscow by Maxim Litvinov, Deputy Foreign Commissar of Ru , who admitted that the Soviet was \building a giant dirigible, “Lenine,” for exploration in the polar regions this coming summer. The race was expected to be the most sensational international race in all history, a race which had for its prize a land | believed to have held millions of dollars worth of oil. Entered in the | “Great Air Derby” were the United States, England, France, Russia and | Norway Answering a call for assistance to combat an epidemic there, Miss Marie Falldine, Red Cross Nurse for the loca! chapter, was to leave for | Tenakee, according to announcement. She was to make the trip on the i Estebeth. George Kohlhepp and wife, who had becn spending several months in California, were returning to Juneau on the Admiral Rogers on the |way North at this time. William Alexander, one of the well known ball players of the Juneau City League who had been visiting in Seattle for several months, was returning here. B. F. Heintzleman, Assistant District Forester, was a passenger from here on the Northwestern enroute to Seattle and then to Portland on official business. | Weather report: High, 42; low, 37; rain.
