THE E\é SHINGTO D. C., MONDAY, JUNE 26, 1933. VS ROOSEVELT ENOYS DEBTE Howe Hits Characterization | of Congress to “Rubber Stamp” in Radio Talk. By the Associated Press, Repudiating the characterization of | “rubber stamp” as applied to the last Congress, Louis McH. Howe, secretary , to President Roosevelt, last night told a radio audience that the President “hates a ‘yes’ man,” and that every issue had been “intelligently and courageous); debated. Y i Howe, chief aid to Mr. Roosevelt, was interviewed on a N. B. C. hook-up by | ‘Walter Trumbull. ‘There was hardly a night when Con- gress was in session, Mr Howe said, | when “at least seven or eight leaders of | both parties” did not visit the White House. “There ha<y been as many as 20 people in that famous oval room, he continued, “going over the country’s pending legislation, and it didn’t take members of Congress long to realize | that they were at liberty to express their honest convictions. Our Chief Executive likes to be argued with over his ideas.” | Cites Advantages of Repeal. Visioning prospects for early repeal of the dry law, Howe said that if this c?xll!ll(es, ’“one lhmig is sure, the taxpayer ‘will“gain more one pocket than he takes out of the other. | “If any more States follow the lead | of Jowa, which was regarded as a doubt- ful State,” he continued, “it undoubtedly will force action in those States where the State authorities are now disposed to prevent the calling of a convention, ‘which lies entirely with the State au- thorities to do or not to do as they see fit. “For instance, should a State such as Alabama, which has loudly proclaim- ed itself to be entirely dry, turn wet‘gy even the narrowest of margins on July 118, it will be extremely difficult for the dry adherents to prevent the reaching of the three-fourths majority at a very early dabe, possibly even before Con- gress assembles next year. Wet Band Wagon Started. “In matters of this kind, as every politician knows, there is tremendous value in psychological effect. Con- tinued success for any measure or can- didate causes many to change their opinions hurriedly and In a most sur- prising way. This is known technically as climbing on the band wagon. The wet band wagon has started. If it con- tinues its uninterrupted progress much Jonger, all the rear seats will be filled as well as the front ones very soon.” Referring to Mr. Roosevelt’s present sailing trip, his secretary declared: “You can accuse the President of be- ing a clumsy navigator of the ship of state and he’ll just grin and say noth- ing—but you tell him he doesn’t know how to sail a 60-foot yawl into a Maine harbor against an ebb tide and you'll get an argument back which will flatten you like a pancake.” At the close of his address, Howe turned to the subject of closed banks, asserting that “about 76 ver cent of all the money deposited in all banks at the time of the crash is now available to depositors.” . ————e BRAND FORCED DOWN Farm Relief Official’s Plane Lands in Maryland to Avoid Storm. Charles J. Brand, one of the admin- istrators of the farm relief act, while| flying to the National Capital yesterday | alternoon from Atlantie City, was forced down at Sanders Point, Md., by the storm which swept this vicinity. After the worst of the storm had blown over, the trip was completed. “There was no trouble” Brand explained to friends on landing here. “We ran into the storm, and the pllot landed for about a half hour until it blew over. “It wasn't even very exciting.” i Body Found in Alley. Believed to have fallen from the roof of a nearby house, the body of an un- identified colored man was found in an alley adjacent to 2114 N street yesterday afternoon. The body was discovered by Ralph Kissinger, 1256 Thirty-first street, ®and Charles Bordeau, 1223 Thirty-third place, who were walking through the glley. The man, who was pronounced dead uron arrival of the Emergency #Hospital ambulance, was said to be t 25 years of age. Special Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, June 26.—Mrs. Oliver | C. Grinnell of New York and Bay Shore, with the help of Wally Baker,‘ captain of her boat, the Oligrin, landed | on rod and reel in the gray dawn off | Pire Island, last week, a 400-pound broadbill swordfish, after a battle last- ing 20 hours. Mrs. Grinnell is the holder of the women's Atlantic broadbill swordfish record. Accompanied by Capt. Baker and | Frank Scala, mate, Mrs. Grinnell | cleared from Bay Shore early Thursday | morning and headed for the open sea | outside Fire Island Inlet. 1 was about 8:30 a.m. when they came in sight of Fire Island Lightship, and a few min- utes later Capt. Baker sighted a large broadbill finning on the surface. He maneuvered the Oligrin into position 2~d Mrs. Grinnell preserfted a bait. The swordfish immediately made a mad rush | for it, but missed, and, turning in a swirl of foam, again struck, this time | getting the hook. = | Takes Mighty Leap. Mrs. Grinnell set the hook and at once the fish shot off on a long run which nearly emptied her reel of line, at the end of which the swordfish cleared the water in a mighty leap. Realizing that she had hooked a big fish, Mrs. Grinnell adjusted the drag on her reel and began the battle to win back some of the lost line. The fish went under, executed another long run, breached on the surface and darted toward the boat. Throwing on full speed ahead, Capt. Baker cleared the line and then began a stubborn, gruelling battle, which dragged on hour | after hour, Mrs. Grinnell playing the fish, conserving her strength when the fish sulked and fighting hard when it renewed activities. Noon came and went. Mrs. Grinnell pumped the big fish closer and closer to the bos Finally it was on the sur- Lands 400-Pound Swordfish WOMAN ACCOMPLISHES FEAT WITH ROD AND REEL RS. OLIVER C.

Photo. could be reached when, with a sudden spurt, it came to life and the reel hum- med as the fish again shot out at ex- | press train speed. Two hundred, four | hundred, six hundred feet of line went | smoking off the reel. Then the fish jumped and sounded and Mrs. Grinnell | again began the exhausting task of re-! gaining lost line. The afternoon hours i dragged on with no sign of weakening on the part of the fish. Its rushes| seemed as strong as ever, although three | times more Mrs. Grinnell brought it up alongside the boat. Wouldn't Give Up. By 6 o'clock in the evening Capt. Baker, fearful lest the strain prove too much for Mrs. Grinnell, begged her to give up the fight, but she gamely in- sisted on carrying on. At 7 o'clock Capt. Baker took the rod. The fish continued its wild rushes, and all night long Capt. Baker stayed with the broadbill. i With the coming of dawn Capt., Baker went into action and fought the fish hard, taking line at every opportunity. He felt the fish was| weakening. Its resistance was less| stubborn—its rushes shortening. F’imfl-: ly, on a last mad xush, its vitality van- | ished and it became a dead weight on' the end of the line. Capt. Baker then turned the rod ‘back | to Mrs. Grinnell. She pumped the fish | in close. At 5 o'clock Capt. Baker seized its sword and Skala slipped a rope around the tail. It was estimated to weigh frcm 400 to 450 pounds and the time from strike to landing was| exactly 20 hours—undoubtedly a new ! record so far as time of landing is con- cerned.
