The Senate committee will mull over the bill in | the meantime and hopes to have it ready for report to the Senate soon after the bill has passed the House. The immediate task of the admin- | istration is to get the work relief bill | through the Senate in the shape it de- | sires.

Press. | MADISON, Wis, February 16— | Wisconsin’s Legislature is probably the undisputed national champion dispenser of advice to Congress—but it is not resting on its laurels. Far from it. The legislators, long known for their propensity for peti- tioning Congress, are grinding out more and more memorials, despite word from Washington that might have discouraged less experienced pes titioners. The Legislature recently memorial- ized Congress to find out whether ib ! pays any attention to the memorials it receives from Wisconsin. A twofold answer was received this week from Secretary Edwin A. Halsey of the United States Senate. He stated on the one hard the right to memorialize Congress was sputable. But on the other hand he said he was “unable to say whether the benefit derived from such resolu- tions is commensurate with the trou- ble. cost of preparation and trans- mi -4 Undaunted, the con- esterday that the court in Baltimore Weiss. after they, with Farrell and | BORAH RESUMES Legislature himself, abducted the victim.

INCE Hitler has been taken firm- | ly in hand by the Reichswehr | leaders, Gen. von Blomberg and Gen. Fritsch, he has not made | a single tactical error in the field of international politics. “The Reich stands by its rights” | he repeats to the foreign Ambassa- | dors in Berlin, “and I am willing to play ball with you as long as you rec- | ognize the justice of Germany's | claims.” * Kk ok K Germany's reply to the Franco- British proposal to join them in an agreement to assure peace of Western Europe was a good piece of shrewd diplomacy. | Before notifying the British and the French about the German inten- tions, Hitler made it known to the world that he wanted a plebiscite in Austria. Then he told Laval and Sir | John Simon, separately, that Ger- many was willing to jein the proposed defensive pact. * kK * In accepting the air pact, Germany marked an important point—the rec- ognition by these powers of the fact that Germany is entitled to a military aviation. Thus the first step toward the scrapping of part V of the Ver- sailles treaty was accomplished. The announcement that a plebiscite would settle more easily the Austrian problem disposed of the condition in the Franco-British pact that the high contracting powers guarantee Austria’s independence. Hitler's advisers knew full well that neither France nor Italy would accept the test of a popular vote in Austria, Even if the reports from Austria that more than 80 per cent | of the population is in favor of a German-Austrian union are exagger- ated, the French and the Italians know that a plebiscité would favor Anschluss by quite a substantial ma- jority. After the Saar experience neither of the two countries want to appeal to the German-speaking popu- lation for a decision regarding their | status in Europe’s family of nations. E £k The great difference :between the foreign policy of the group led by while the former is drifting aimlessly in the dark, the latter has a well- defined objective—the territorial re- | integration of Germany and the eco- nomic domination of the territories from the Baltic to the Black Sea. S Gen. von Blomberg is & nice gen- tleman of the old school, who makes an ideal front for the power behind {him. Gen. Fritsch, a much younger man, and a few other young colonels are the actual driving power behind Blomberg and Hitler, H ‘The latter, afflicted by a throat ail- ment, is quite happy to spend much | time in the Bavarian Alps. and play |the role of standard bearer of the army. The Reichswehr leaders are more reliable, the Fuehrer has found out, than the Goerings, the Goebbels and the other big drums of: the Nazi party. . The Reichswehr is against & war. That is to say, it believes that if Ger- many can obtain what she wants without fighting, it would be much better to adopt a semi-conciliatory policy and not force the issue. It also believes that vain threats and empty sonorous speeches, such as Goering and Goebbels used to make, can do no good under the present cir- cumstances. Its slogan is “Get ready for any eventuality, but kesp quiet about it.” * K % X European statesmen still speak with awe about Locarno. But the people o; France seem to think very little of it. The late Aristide Briand, the or- ganizer of the present European peace, used to have a boat, the Simonelle, on board which he used to dream about the United States of ‘Europe and a world without armies, navies and air forces.

President Roosevelt and House Democratic leaders apparently reached a thorough understanding on patron- age difficulties yesterday after another White House discussion. | The House chietains, headed by Speaker Byrns and Representative Sabath, chairman of the Steering Committee, talked things over for an hour with Mr. Roosevelt. Representative McFarlane of Texas carried an armful of papers into the conference room and was reported to have submitted some complaints about | treatment of Government officials. “We had a nice conference with the | President,” Sabath said. “We are satisfied the President wants to do everything for the best interest of the departments and the bureaus and he wants the co-operation of Congress.

It further pro- vides that if the operation of the security wage beats down the pre- vailing wage in private industry, the President is to look gnto the matter and if he finds that to be the case, he must then pay the prevailing wage. | Democratic Senators who like to support the administration are frankly worried over the McCarran amend- ment.
