» 72d Congress Facing Heavy Calendar, With Coalition Rule Virtually Certain (Continued From First Page.) and | Just at this moment it seems that if | the Republicans keep the organization of the Senate and also of the House, their control of both bodies will be mominal. Especially will this be the in the Senate. The ruling force in Congress at both ends of the Capi- tol for the next two years will be a coalition. Outwardly it will appear to be wunder control of the regular Re- | publicans, but actually it will be domi- nated by an alliance of Democrats and Progressive or Insurgent Republicans. ‘Will Be Anti-Administration. How mlitant the House insurgent | Republicans will be remains to be seen. But there is no doubt that the group,| captained by Senator George Noiris, of Nebraska, just triumphantly re-elected, will be a fighting and aggressive force which will have to be reckoned with in every important situation that arises. ‘The coalition will be anti-administra- tion, and when President Hoover sends his first message to the Seventy-second Congress it will be a case of committing his program to the consideration of his | critics anc political enemics. An extra session of the Seventy- second Congress next spring is not im- robable. Numerous signs are given one wili be forced. Otherwise, the new Congress will not meet until De-| cember, 1921. If there is no meeting| until December, 1931, the mass of busi- ness imposed on the Congress neces- sarily will be more restricted than if lt‘ meets in an extra session next Spring | and follows this up with the regular long session. Limited Program for Short Session. Naturally, those members who be- Heve that the country is better off with a minimum of legislation and, when Congress is not in session will resist an extra session, but they will not sgettle it. It will rest in the hands of an aggressive body of insurgents and Democrats to say whether or not an extra session ‘wiunbel t‘}?mu by blocking passage of part of the appro- priation {L\la lgne the December session of flfi present Congress. While there is much interest just now in the work of the coming short sesslon of the old Congress, which mgets December 1, it at best will have but a lirited program. In a three menths’ session it is almost impossible to pass any large constructive measure | other than appropriation bills, unless it involve little controversy. 8o, for practical purposes, it can be put down as settled that the short session will do little to relieve the Seventy-second Con- gress of any important share of its burdens. | Full Slate Faces Seventy-Second. Among the questions which the new ess will have to grapple with are ition, power, railroads, radio, tariff, taxation, farm relief, postal rates, the public land policy, the Philippines, immfi'rnthn, anti-injunetion, revision of the banking laws, short selling and other aspects of speculation, unemploy- ment legitlation of a permanent nature, the merckant marine, the inland water- ‘ways, & new canal in Nicaragua, the St, Lawrence waterway and effective limi- tation of campaign expenditures. eflvfi appropriations will have to be lerecl. Strigter attention to gov- ernment economy is likely to be im- posed by the necessities of lowered rev- enues. ‘The ever lesome _ques- tion of the war debts may be reopened, and it will be necessary to say how far the Government is to go in furthering public werks in order to take care of iployment, unless conditions change lly and quite speedily.

But there will be J\lemv of other obstacles in the legislative geog- raphy. Scores of other subjects will have to be taken into.accdunt, some :.l'.r them quite as perplexing as those enumerated. Control Slender Affair. Nor is it to be overlooked that con- trol of the organization of the House and Sepate in the new Congress will be a hair-trigger thing. Such control might be upset any day, almost any minute. Nicholas Longworth of Cin- cinnati, faring forth some fine morning @s Speaker of the House and going to the Capitol in the Speaker's car, might himself thrown out of office befare night by a Democratic and insurgent combination, and be forced to see John Nance Garner of Uvalde, Tex., step mo “‘:fllphfi& mkeldh’sldchm and his | ) e he would ride hos S me in a himself see self similarly ousted. Benate will be much the same uncer- tainty. This close division of part; strength and uncertainty as to th permanence of the control of the or- | lt‘a!mn‘ Igll“fienlly add to the dif- es of dealing with a vasi - lative program. b Prohibition Likely to Be Faced. ‘The progress of eyents and the re- | sults of the recent elections have | tended to force on the attention of | Congress a number of subjects hereto fore evaded. For instance, there is prohibition. Members of both houses Tealize as they have not realized since the Volstead act was passed that some- thing will have to be done about it. It looms up as a disconcerting and grave issue for both parties in the 1932 | campaign. Obviously, the short session of Con- gress do>s not intend to do anything importart on prohibition if it can help it. The worrles and vexations of the wet and dry contention will be imposed on the new Congress. The power question is another which has been forced to the front by the re- cent elections. Large gains of strength by the opponents of the power inter- ests in some States have greatly en- couraged thosé elements in Congress who believe in Government operation or a larger measure of Government con- “Power Trust” Under Fire. So regular a Republican as Senator Charles L. McNary of Oregon, assistant Republican leader of the Senate, has come out for the Norris bill, clares ke will stand or fall by it. e it may bool‘hal: !hleelhon ses dispose uscle Shoals, it at all certain that it do so.

Included in this will be some aspects of speculation, especially the use of Federal Reserve funds to finance spee- ulative* activities. ~Moreover, Congress is much interested in the whole subject of short selling, whether it be in stocks or commodities. The recommendations growing out of studies of such matters gfll be mnfl; wpar]entéthl‘t:i‘ nlew ‘ongress, and may leas ation of far-reaching character. Then there is the railroad problem, including consolidation. The Senate Interstate Commerce Committee has had expert studies of consolidation under way for weeks. It has been the hope of some of the raliroad heads that Congress would relax the law on consolidations and permit practically voluntary consolidations. The best information today is that such legislation will not be encouraged by the present investigation of the In- terstate Commerce Committee; in fact, that consolidation 1is likely to get a backset. In any event, the new Con- gress cannot escape giving attention to important railroad matters. Valuation is one of them. Possibly. but not probably, the short | session will dispose of the large ques- tion of what to do about the motor bus. If it cannot be of this Winter it will press for the attention of the Seventy-second . ‘Without going into as to the ot ¢ in new ‘These msz jenot get far, but they will cause mucl | for the coming legislative body.

And tax revision in some form inevitably will arise to make restless the dreams of statesmen in the newly elected House and Senate. Recurrence of good times would call for reduction, but continu- ance of depression would call for in- creased levies and would be highly embarrassing to hoth houses. Foreign Relations to Vex Senate. ‘These and other aspects of domestic legislation will impose on the new Con- gress & load which will weigh it down. But the domestic legislation is but a part of the necessary program. Senate will have much more to con- sider. It seems certain that the new Senate will be forced to settle the con- troversy over adherence to the World Court under the Root formula. This may lead to months of debate. And it s uncertain today what will come out of it. The movement to put teeth into the Kellogg pact may result in the Senate’s finding itself faced by a new peace treaty, and there is the possibility of another naval limitation arrangement. Nominations will lead to the usual amount of controversy, and perhaps more than- usual, in view of the strength of the Democrats and insur- gents. Lines Forming for 1932. When it is recalled that the new Congress, whether it operates in extra session next Spring or in the regular long session beginning a year hence, will be under the guns of the political forces that are ranging their lines for 1932, it can be realized what is n.heald' to forecast a needs no gift of Seventy-second hectic time for Congress. Character Building Taught Thousands By Guiding Thought (Continued From Third Page.) can help breathing unless you think of something else. As long as a man thinks of taking a drink and nothing else he is going to take a drink and God Almighty cannot stop him. Nothing ean stop him except another thought. But just as you are about deeided to buy a Cardinal you remember the Belmont makes more miles a gallon. Ah! Of course, that is the important thing—you must econo- mize. You don’t want to go at full speed, anyhow. So “miles a gallon,” “miles a gallon,” has you in its deadly grip, and you are as certain new to bu; a Belmont as you were a buy a Cardi- nal. But just at that critical moment the thought “comfort” strikes you full force. My, my, of course, comfort above everything—and the Cardinal has more comfort, better cushions, shock absorb- ers, etc. And so you go and so everybody goes all through life, following their thoughts, and they act on the most persistent, in- sistent thought, always. Supplies “Saving Thoughts.” Now, that is what this big-hearted, big-brained railroad switchman, Frank ‘Wright, dees for you—he gives you the right thought at the right time—literal- ly, he fills your mind with “saving thoughts.” For it is your thoughts and your thoughts alone that make you a criminal or a good citizen. Just as the automobile agents did, he gives you a large number of super-power thoughts to guide your moral decisions. For example, Wright asks children to stop when in a tight place and ask themselyes how the thing they are tempted to do would fit into their life building if their lives were planned like | an engineer plans a skyscraper. What | if, 10 years from now when people | looked at their building, it would show | the windows in the wroj place, the stones out of line, and the like? Again, he tells them their minds are like the semsitive plate on a camera, registe: through all the senses the | picture t they permit to be regis- tered. They can open the shutter and let in any pictures they like or any thought they desire. Now, what if that | sicture on the mind were open for every- | body to see? But he tells them it is| open—that picture shows in your con- duct, your manners, your treatment of others, your speech and all that you do. Let us take his lesson, “Reading the Price Tags of Life.” Wright says, “Where are these price tags? To what are they attached? How may I learn to read them for myself? Well, sup- e you go into a grocery store and ve just $1 to spend. Every article is labeled with a price tag. Then if you :‘m sensible you ask yourself three ques- jons: “1. What is the price of this tI ? Do I need it? e 3. Is it worth the price? “If you invest your dollar with these right thoughts in mind you come out with your money's worth in bread and meat and milk and the foods that give strength and health. But if you buy thoughtlessly you come out with sweets and knick-knacks, and the real worth- while foods are left behind—yet your money is all gone, just the same.” So, Wright teaches, it is with life. Each human being has just so much life to invest, 50 much time and energy to spend. And life is just a great big store with the price tag of everything tied to it. Those who ask themselves, what is fl;‘eoeprtl’%eu:ddo l:lefid it; is it‘gxonh the P uj power, right desire, right habits 0? thinking—in short, char- acter. They use their reason, their com- mon sense, ‘Wright's great appeal is to the chiid’s has to make the reason. It is he wi uts the whole responsi- | decision. He bility up to the chili—and gives him | | these clear, reasonable thoughts to aid him in making the decision. For in- | tance, he asks his pupils, “What is the “Yes,” Wright answers, “but there is a more important moment than that—7 o'clock in the evening, for that is when you are declding how to invest your life | th;‘t even}ng." | Now, if you have a large group of | these right thoughts seated in your %ery | nervous system at that moment, just like uying the best automobile, you will without effort decide on something | worth while—something with a IDDG} Er‘lce tag on it. So, you see, gettin, old of the right thought at the right | moment and holding to it for dear life | is literally your salvation. Time, Place and the Child. These are only a few samples from Wright's Pathfinder philosophy. I think Wright has three things immensely in his favor—the time, the place and the child. The child is free, and his reason, his common sense, is working at top speed. The same with a criminal—he | is for the moment free as air—free to | use his reason about life, even behind prison walls. No prison authority—no ax to grind, no law, no threats, no parents, no teachers, no preachers—in short, free from the one thing on earth | that keeps Yeopll from nsing their rea- | sons—namely, fear. Fear of tradition, fear of authority, fear of eriticism, fear ::"fll:ture punishment—fear of punish- If 1 could sum it all up in a word I | hould say this is Frank Wright's great | Hawafi Forty-Niners (Forty-nine Days) entertainment and or booklet. 851 5th Ave. New York Argonaut Tours » jthe Moundsville State Prison the Path- | pauvLavenTER, | inager s in Right Direction service to the world—he applies reason to life and character, he teaches the law of cause and effect, the laws that underlie all right and wrong actions— and he teaches it in an atmosphere free from all fear. ‘Wright 8lso has never made the mis- take of off rewards, badges, ranks, promotions bribes for good conduct. This is the fatal blunder of many character-by organizations that have the best of motives. A recent extensive survey of the Institute of Re- ligious Education (directed b! Dr. Hugh Hartshorne of Columbja and Dr. Mark May of Yale, two very eminent psychol- ogists) proved beyond question that chil- dren tend strongly to lie, cheat and steal in order to obtain these promotions. The appeal is not to sound character, but to the desire for approval, to be tmportant -to stand wel! with others, which psychologists haye shown is, next to sex instinct, the sirongest urge in human nature. People will often go without food and deny the sex instincts in order to satisfy the passion for ap- proval. I could fill this paper with instances of the results of the Pathfinder philos- ophy. Here is one man who Wwas s dangerous no guard dared to go near him unless he was armed. He had to wear a ball and chain constantly to re- strain his freedom lest he might injure either his guards or fellow workmen. As he was passing through the yard he heard a group of men discussing one of the Pathfinder lessons on the Price Tags of Life. He asked for a leaflet, became interested and is now superintendent of a big shop with 600 men under him. There was Jimmy Zane, white haired at 28 from trying to burn the candle of life at both ends. Jimmy had given himself up for lost—almost the last hope for any man—and had concluded to make himself a genuinely bad man when he got out. Jimmy heard there was a Pathfinder couneil in the prison and asked if they were on the level. The teacher, himself a prisoner, assured him they were. So Jimmy is now head of & big auto repair shop in California, with 45 men in his employ. Stories of Two Ex-Convicts. 1 have before me two remarkable let- ters written to me personally by two ex- convicts for publication. They are too long to publish in full. The letterhead of one of them—from D. C. Kennedy— tells its own s /—a man just out of 12 years in a West Virginia prison, but who is starting to devote hié life to carrying the Pathfinder work into the schools and prisons of the State. I learned from a recqnt personal visit by Mr. Wright to Moundsville that after Kennedy had been teaching the men at finder work for a year the 800 men were RESORTS. ATLANTIC CITY, N. J.

Kimball says he one tried mgm the Pathfinder work, as he distrusted all welfare organizations, as most prisoners do, but by chance he learned what it was-and is now devoting his life to teaching the Pathfinder philosophy. But little children give just as eloquent testimony. One little girl writes—I just pick these letters out of the thousands: “Your lesson -n ‘Anger’ made me feel s0 good toward my mof that she thought I was sick.” Another, “My mamma and pngln have always fought a great deal, it after I took the first Pathfinder lesson home papa said, ‘I guess we will have to cut out fighting’ and since then our home has | Ny been very happy.” And, “I told mamma lies so_long she won't believe me now when I tell the truth, but I am going to keep right on telling her the truth anyhow.” And another, from & mother: “I don’t know what you have done to Mary, but I tried every way possible to get her to help me wash the dishes without success, but now she washes them without my asking her.”” It is such a temptation to extend these into the hundreds, even thousands. Backed by Manufacturer. But finally: While in every great|gy movement there is always a man who leads, yet back of him is always another man who is often unknown, but without whom success would be impossible. Just so, back of Dad Wright has stood all these years Joseph Boyer, now past 80, builder and president of the Bur- roughs Adding Machine Co. who has furnished the funds for carrying on this noble work. I have often said that Mr. Boyer would be remembered by his work for the Pathfinders long after the Bur- rbughs adding machine had been for- gotten. I am sure he will. He has backed the entire work from the be- ]glnmng with untold thousands of dol- ars. In fact, some day Detroit will bufld three monuments. One, of course, Henry Ford, and probably the greatest thing Henry Ford ever did was to install the Pathfinder work in his trade school for boys. The second monument, just as high, will be for Joseph Boyer for his work, without which this story of human regeneration and _character building would have been impossible. And the third will be to J. nklin Wright, Doctor of Common Sense, who has developed a practical system for teaching the good life and showing men that moral conduct is simply intelligent conduct, right doing is just reasonable doing and the only morality that will stand up through the years is one that teaches men how to plan their lives with the same intelligence with whieh an engineer plans a building and shows them how to read the price tags that are already plainly 'Frlnbed on every- thing good or bad within the range of human desire, —_ Country Girl Aids Puireé How one of the famous designs of Poiret, the first artist among man mil- liners in Paris, was the work of a gen.p ant girl, was recently revealed- by a French girl who got the story from him.
