FTER nevera? days of hectic work,
pushing through the last measures
labeled “must” by the administration
and a host of other bills demanded
by various:members, the Seventy-third
congress closed its second session.
The measures passed during this session include some of the basic laws
of the New Deal and considerable
elaboratiohb and modification of laws
passed last year in addition to the
regular appropriation bills and a normal amount of necessary routine legislation. —
As in the first session,
Roosevelt was in full contfol, though
the legislators displayed a more critical attitude and a tendency to give
proposed legislation closer scrutiny
could not be attributed to a lessening
of the President's influence or of the
fact that the members of congress
didn’t wish longer to be labeled as
“yes men.” On the whole Mr. Roosevelt succeeded in ‘getting what he
asked and in preventing what he did
Dot want.
Several measures that had the backimg of.the administration failed of
passage. These included the oil bill,
ardently desired by Secretary Ickes;
the pure food and drug. bill, which
never came to a vote; the ratification
of the St. Lawrence waterway treaty;
and a series of amendments amplifying and clarifying the powers of
the AAA,
In° {ts closing hours the congress
‘spent money like water, indulging in
what Congressman Britten of Chicago
called “an orgy of spending such as
never has been lenown in the history
of the world during peace times.” The
last of the major bills disposed of
. Were:
The deficiency appropriation bill,
allotting the President more than two
billion three hundred. million dollars
for relief and other emergency purposes,
The one billion dollar housing bill
to promote the revival of the building
trades and of the durable goods industries:
The Frazier bill for relief of farm
mortgagors,
The bill sciendling banking legislation,
The railway labor bill.
{LLIAM GREEN, president of
the American Federation of Labor, succeeded where President Roosehin enon agiuaie Johnson and all
others had failed. He
appeared before the
delegates of the steel
workers’ unions at
Pittsburgh and persuaded them at least
to postpone their
threatened strike, The
plan which he offered,
and which may lead
to a permanent settlement of the controEarl J. sing in brief proForbeck Establishment. of a
three-man board by. the’ President to
adjudicate and mediate al] violations
of code on matters of discrimination
against employees.
To insure the right of workers to
organize, empowering the board to
hold and supervise industrial elections
for collective bargaining representatives, f
All grievances or complaints would
be referred to the board for final de. elsion.
If acceptable to labor, capital, and
the federal’ government, the strike
would be called off permanently.
Leaders of the “rank and file”
steel workers, including Earl J.
Forbeck and other chiefs of local
unions, were especially bitter in their
attitude toward General Johnson, and
were. still. eager for a strike. but. they
were outnumbered and tne Green plan
was adopted as a basis for further negotiations. The union leaders went to
Washington for a final decision. They
earried authority to call the strike
if the peace plan were rejécted by the
government or the steel. operators,

The code was consented to, says the
memorandum, “on the express understanding” that the minimum .-price
and other trade practice provisions
“were absolutely necessary if members of the trade were to comply with
other provisions of the code, including
the limitations on maximum hours
and minimum wages of labor.” The
suspension of the minimum price provision is pronounced “a deprivation
members of the trade, leaving them
only the burdens.’
The memorandum states that 97
per cent of the 11,000 plant owners
and 175,000 to 200,000, retail shops are
able and willing to comply with the
price and other trade practice provisions if there is “reasonable co-operation on the part of the government in
enforcing compliance on the other 8
per cent, There is virtually complete
compliance in 132 of the 312 districts.”
In. conclusion the mentorandum
takes this wallop at Administrator
Johnson;
“We are equally confident, however,
that confidence in a program, no matter how meritorious, cannot long be
maintained when its administration is
intrusted to an agent who makes so
little of the elementary requirements
of good faith and who is oblivious: to
the hardship and suffering his conduct is. causing to thousands of loyal
and law abiding citizens of this country.” 5
SECRETARY OF WAR DERN. and
President Roosevelt have received
® unanimous report from a house investigating committee demanding that
wx, Maj. Gen. Benjamin
D. Foulois be femoved.as chief,of the
army air corps’ “without delay.” The report accused the general’ of “dishonesty,”
“gross misconduct,”
“inefficiency,” “inaccuracy,” “unreliability,” “incompetency,”.
and “mismanagement.”
After praising the
“young men” who fly army planes under. Foulois’ direction, the report concluded:
“We find it necessary to report that
we are most firmly convinced, from
the evidence and records submitted,
that. before any substantial progress
in the upbuilding of the morale and
materiel of the army air corps can. be
attained, Maj. Gen. Benjamin D.
Foulois must be relieved from his
position as chief of the air corps.”
Gen. Foulois
RESIDENT ROOSEVELT went up
to New Haven, Conn., for the Yale
commencement and was _ presented
with the highest honor the university
can bestow, the degree: of doctor of
laws. After the ceremony he attended a luncheon of alumni and took oceasion to challenge the critics of his
New Deal and especially those who
make fun of the “brain trust.”
“It is true,” he told his hearers, and
there was obvious in his voice a note
of defiance, “that today, more than
evef before in our public life, we are
calling on the teaching profession for
assistance in our government, There,
have been certain ribald comments
and some laughter about the use of
brains in the national government, but
it seems to me a pretty good practice.
“It is a practice that will continue,”
he added: firmly. And. the. professors
around him started the vigorous applause which followed.
Later on he evoked further applause
when he said: “I couldn’t tell you the
party affiliations of the majority of
people holding responsible positions in
Washington, and it is a mighty good
thing I cannot.”
That evening Mr. Roosevelt boarded
the ‘presidential yacht. Sequoia and
proceeded slowly to New London,
Conn., to witness the boat races petween Harvard and Yale. His son,
Franklin, Jr., was one of the Harvard
freshman crew. After the regatta the
President motored to the family home
at Hyde Park, N. Y., to remain over
the week end.

(CHANCELLOR HITLER has been
receiving some hard knocks re
cently. Vice Chancellor Franz von
Papen delivered himself of a vigor:
ous criticism of the
more radical experi%
ments of the Nazi %
regime, and its “excesses and arrogance.”
Alluding to the pagan
revival, Von Papen
said: “Germans must
not exclude themselves from the society of Christian nations.” The speech,
delivered at Marburg,
was kept out of the
German ‘press but the
Count
(Nadoiny.
German people read it in Swiss papers, and then learned that President
Paul von Hindenburg had sent Von
Papen a. telegram of. congratulation.
Immediately after this incident
Count Rudolf Nadolny announced his
resignation as German ambassador to
Russia: This was the first defection
‘from Nazi government ranks since Dr,
Alfred Hugenberg resigned as minister
of agriculture and economics in June,
1933, Nadolny’s. resignation is attributed to his failure to persuade Chancellor Hitler to accept Russia’s. proposal for a non-aggression pact. The’
count is a close personal friend of
President von Hindenburg.
Late dispatches from Berlin say Hitler has rejected Von Papen’s offer to
resign and has made a temporary
truce with him. Both of them arranged to confer with the President
at Neudeck, but not at the same time,

hear that the fleet is to return to the

passing through the Panama canal, to
break the 47-hour reterd made in the

new submarines and fourteen destroyers will use’ up most of this’ sum.
About $5,500,000 will be spent on airplanes.
Bhawan samitata in Cuba, who have
been stirring up continual trouble
for the: Mendieta administration, precipitated bloody warfare in Havana
by making an unprovoked atack on a
parade of 35,000 members of the ABO,
e island’s largest secret political society. The radicals, ambushed in
cross streets, opened fire with machine guns, pistols, sawed-off shotguns
and rifles, mowing down scores of the
marchers and many bystanders. About
a dozen were killed outright. The
ABC members fought valiantly with
their revolvers and with clubs and
stones. Later the fighting spread
throughout the city, the students taking sides. with the. terrorists.
Col. Fulgencio Batista, chief of staff,
declared martial law in Havana as
soldiers, sdilors, and marines strug:
gled to stem the rioting.
‘Only a few hours before this furious
battle, President Mendieta narrowly
escaped death at the hands of the
terrorists. A bomb was exploded be
hind his chair during a luncheon at a
naval base across the bay trom Havana, and he was badly wounded in
the: legs and arms and severely shocked,
T'wo naval officers were killed and ten
others were wounded by the blast.
ADY ASTOR, the American-born

some stupid ones. In the latter category comes her action in Plymouth at
a ceremony in memory of Sir Francis

the wine into the river, saying: “1
