The House had previously tested the thoughts of the members of the Senate as to their oroposed tax program for the canned salmon industry bill which contained the recommendations of the Gov- The Senate thought this bill unreasonable and refused to pass it. Later the Senate passed a pill | calling for about $500,000 in additional taxes from the industry. The House amended this bill to incorporate into it the features of the earlier measure which was objectionable to the Senate. Naturally the Senate followed its previous course of action and would not accept the House amend- ments, as most members of the House probably knew This was the his in a ernor. 56 when they voted these amendments in. way the House killed this tax measure. The same scheme was used by the majority mem- bers of the House o other bills. To kill a bill designed to call for a referendum on a hlanket primary and for the election of national committeemen, the House tacked in referendum on fish tra which the a 5 majority members of the House knew the Senate had killed earlier in a separate bill. the last labor” bills which died on the As for Washington Merry- Go-Round !

On Sunday, Pravda denounced William L. Green, Matthew Woll and wil- | liam L. Hutcheson as “reactionary American Federation of Labor.” A week earlier same newspaper referred to Representative O’Konski of Wisconsin as a “Fascist” and said that “From the tribune of the House of Representatives he spoke like Goebbels.” Eddie Rickenbacker, W. L. White. and the Jate Wendell Willkie are among others who have had | similar compliments paid to them in the more or less | recent past . We do not, of course, contest the right of Russian editorial writers to hold, and to express, such opinions | about prominent Americans. - There has, indeed, been considerable provocation for the intemperance of the Russians. that the decision respecting Polish boundaries at | Yalta “will go down as the most ghastly crime of all the ages known to man or beast” wa: scarcely cal-! culated to be considered soothing in Moscow. All the same, we do not know what Pravda expects | to gain by answering such gibes in kind. The answer, in Mr. O'Konski's case, could scarcely have been intended to mobilize the opinion of Russian readers | which, from all we can learn, is already fairly well developed on the Polish question. But if its purpose was to influence the thinking of Americans, then it | probably fell wide of the mark, indeed. However, vehemently we may criticize one another, we tend, as a people—and so, for that matter, do the Russians —to rally to the defense of any one of us who is iled from the outside, Moreover, dest for the careless employment of such epithets as It is bad enough when irresponsible mdnxrluals engage in this sort of invective; when it is done by newspapers which are, as in the Soviet Union, recognized organs of the government, the effect is far from conducive to international good feelini Perhaps the editors of Pravda need to learn the firs law of public relations—that no answer at all turneth both wrath and nleuvnmh]v publl(lLv a; awa; Inl Pierre, S.
