'THERE'LL probably be a lot of “hellgebites” on the Republican side n; the House during this special session o “Hellgebites” are things stirred up by Jack Garner, the new Democratic lead- er, successor to Finis J. Garrett. The ‘word is his, and he is about as adept at. this as any of his Democratic col- leagues. The fiery Texan is regarded - erally as one of the best rough-and- ible debaters on itable whirlwind in action, arms flying ,,8nd words spout- g with T # gun rapidity. 7 e He has a nimble / / mlmlt hllnnd t’; lshn 74 rare g that he 7 is without a retort that will bring dis- comfiture to a heckler or without a ready answer to questions designed to break up his attack. With Garner in command of the Democrats, are that the Re- publicans will meet the most spirited and united opposition that the minor- ity party has offered in years. Undismayed by the reversal his party received at the polls last November, he plans to battle every inch of the way to inject Democratic ideas and principles in the tariff revision and farm rellef bills now before the special session. A practical politician is Gardner, but he is quick and consistent in his condemna- tion of false motives. His modesty and frankness win him friends despite his fire and biting sar- casm in the running exchanges with his colleagues. He is one of the most popular of men among his associates. Garner and Nicholas Longworth have long been cronies despite the frequent clashes they had on the floor during the d.l{l when the Speaker was the Republican leader. Garner is an opposite type from Gar- rett, his predecessor. The Tennesseean ngress. is his ability to fight. The new Democratic chieftain is lawyer, an extensive land owner and banker. He served in the Texas lature and as a county judge before coming to Congress. He entered m.:i thirteenth term March 4. Garner is said to have owned one of the greatest Angora goat herds in the world at one time. He still owns a number of fine herds. Lately he has been interested in raising onions. Although he is said to be a wealthy man, Garner is known as one of the most democratic men in Congress. His verbal attacks are not confined wholly to Republicans. Even his South- ern colleagues have felt the sting of his tongue. He jolted the house a few years back .with an attack on Tom Blanton, a colleague from his own State. Blanton had been making speeches against members of oong: ing milage pay and of allowances. Garner's ire was aroused, back. The way he lashed his colleague is still fresh in the minds of all on Capitol Hill The Department of Commerce will put more than 1,000,000 boys to work L}l\m Summer at the trade of carpenter- g. They will be shown how to make some 1,200 different articles out of second- hand boxes and crates and odd pieces of lumber that otherwise would be wasted. Steps now are being taken to open up and equip wood-working shops all ](‘zver the country where they may work. The object is to prevent wood waste. ‘The department’s national committee on wood utilization is sponsoring the campaign, and has stated that no other project it has undertaken is more prac- tical or bears a closer relation to the committee's objective. ‘The annual quantity of lumber used for box and crate purposes would build a city of frame houses four times as large as the city of Washington. Most of them are thrown away or burned after they have served their original purpose. It is the first time that a concentrated effert has been made to utilize such containers. Thousands of coples of & booklet, “You Can Make It,” will be placed in the hands of boys throughout the coun- try. The booklet is the first of a series containing the committee’s suggestions. It will be released in time for use in the Suminer sessions of playground and va- cation schools.
