For Crazy Water yea I canal the wo 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, : by A formal letter, accompanied by a long explanation, the code au-. thority of the cleaners.and dyers has notified the President that it has withdrawn its consent to the code. The reason assigned for this action {s that Administrator Johnson, ng by’ au-thority of.the Preside : ded the minimum price and other fair trade leaving in effect all other provisions, ’ those establishing minimum “wages. and maximum hours of labor. The cleaners and dyers say that qi with pr eyez costs a i increased ery its appended explanation the code challenged the validity of oh aerane Johnson, conPresident ; before giving it their. approval. This . confidence in -him,-but-rather--to--the. practice provisions of the code while . r not heen By EDWARD W. PICKARD © by Western Newspaper Union. 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. NOTHER divorce in the Roosevelt family is impending, Mrs, Anna Dall, the daughter of the Prestdent, has taken up peciaeace . in pie vada with the evident = though not yet de clared _purpose of seeking legal separa§@& tion from her husband, Curtis Dall, New York broker, The news was no surprise to friends of the family.

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, 2 pets: was obviously pleased recently when the American fieet was moved from the Pacific to the Atlantic, but it: will not be so glad to hear that the fleet is to return to the Pacific about November 1, when all its maneuvers have been completed.

Secretary Swanson says the navy’s ahead with $40,000,000 obtained from the public works administration. Six 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.
