T' • i±"v" V Washington - Letter .. •"'. - . /; ' a --By-- •-; ;> Katioad Editorial Aiwekrttai Washington, June 7--Closing up , -the special session of the Seventythird Congress reveals an. over-in- < creasing desire of Congress to be free •from domination of the Chief Executive. The symptoms are unmistakably disclosed in tbe trend of public .debate and private conversations cf the legislators. It is generally conceded that Mr. Roosevelt has been for- "tunate in promoting his legislative program with a minimum of interfer- ; f ence. The barrage of criticism from '. the opposition is accentuated by the - * y discord in the Democratic ranks. Like •' , "the school-boy "Injun-givers" there . >'. ' are many solons now repenting the ' :3»'vVbestowal of sweeping powers on the „X President. They would like to re- -'..I ,'scind their action. ;'jr The House of Representatives has l,< , f wiped its slate clean of pressing busi- • This body is merely marking (time waiting until the Senate disposes V' *of important measures. This week - . * the Senate will have to vote on the 'vital industrial control bill. It is a ; measure that contains patronage in the form of extensive public works. • Yet the bill drops a grave responsibility at the door of Congress. The general levy of taxes is bound to 0 . cause bitter political reactions. Clever politicians are endeavoring to strike a popular chord by writing in assess- \ ment features aimed at Morgan and other private banking firms. However, the Senators are cognizant that hitting at bankers who have escaped tax payments will not sufficiently compensate the smaller taxpayers for the new burdens in the form of higher taxes collectible next March. Lighter taxes are preferable to revenge. The Republicans are watching the . trend of affairs at the London econom ic conference which opens next Mon- . day. They expect to avail themselves of the errors of ommission or coramissin thgt can be chalked up against the Roosevelt spokesmen in dealing with foreign nations. It may provide campaign material in the Congressional elections next year. The handling of the debt and tariff problems will be scrutinized closely for these are subjects which the average citizen . has a working knowledge. The Administration is optimistic as to the outcome of the London negotiations. Prevailing opinion is that the Europeans will not consent to compromises unless they obtain marked concessions a stunt which leaves the United States holding the bag. Former Senator Moses wisely remarked 'some years ago. "There is another victory V for the Republican party in the League of Nations yet." There is at least one high government official who will watch his step as long as he holds office. This is Guy Helvering of Kansas just confirmed as Collector of Internal Reve - nue. His professional affairs as a tax expert were under the Senate microscope and denunciations against his appointment were not of the kind to include a biography. Senator " Couzens of Michigan served notice that, the controversy over the Helver- , ing appointment would be prolonged. It is now apparent that the Morgan - lists of preferred customers in the possession of the Senate will be utilized whenever a prominent name is named to high office which requires Senate approval. Secretary Woodin would never have been passed as chief of the Treasury Department had Pe ' cora made known the information he gathered from the Morgan files. Disraeli, the master statesman of Eng " land aptly said "there is nothing in which the power of circumstances is more evident than in politics." With plans calling for adjourhment between June 10 and 15, hearings on pending bills have been rushed. The Wagner-Peyser bill establishing na tional labor agencies to cooperate with state groups is calculated to help bring men and jobs together and prevent overlapping. An investigation cf 5f the Civil Service has been launched in an effort to find out about patronages The legislature does not take kindly to the employment of residents of the District of Columbia and Maryland. The legislators want : jobs distributed in accordance with the state quota system. Meanwhile they are putting the finger on Jim r Farley, the patronage dispenser, ot be •liberal in appointing loyal Democrats to offices now held by Republicans.

Washington.--Work In the new reforestation camps--and there will be plenty of It--is to be well balanced with play. No one knows better than army officers, old hands at training large bodies of men, the valuable truth of the old adage, "all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy." Since President Roosevelt ordered the army to take charge of the men while they sre in camp, Maj. Oen. Hugh Al Drum, deputy chief of staff, and his aides, have been busy drafting a recreation program for the new army of labor. Specific hours for play will be set aside and It will not Interfere with the schedule of work. Rather, officials believe, it will add tremendously to the efficiency of the workers. Baseball Heads List. Baseball will, of course, head the list of sports for the quarter million unemployed city dwellers who are to be given Jobs in the healthy outdoors. Each of the camps is to have 200 men in It, under tentative plans. Officials hope to develop a spirit of rivalry between camps located within a reasonable distance of each other to build up keen competition. Camps will be located near a stream whenever possible, and this will provide another much loved sport--swimming. ' - For the long, cool evenings, In camp there will be Indoor games of all sorts, and movies./^Cards will be provided, and there will be checkers, dominoes and the inevitable Jig-saw puzzles. Secretary Dern has had a number of offers from college heads throughout the country, and as a result there may be instituted In the camps educational courses designed to prov£ highly valuable to the recruit when he leaves the conservation corps and goes back into the life he came from. Living conditions for the men will be similar to those of the army. The food will be just as good as army rations. Often it will be better. Forces working in the forests will be able to procure more fresh food than the dough boys. Personnel will be under army' supervision demanding a clean camp, regularity of habits and a high morale. The men will not be expected to maintain a schedule as rigid and tiring as the army demands. Because the army is the only force qualified tp carry the burden of personal supervision of the forestry workers, their mode of life will be formulated somewhat along army lines. Another thing. Neither the army, which is supervising the work camps, nor the forest service, which will supervise the actual work in the woods, wants shirkers. Free Medical Service. Medical reserve corps officers wtfl be .stationed at the camps. Field medical kits will provide everything necessary for treatment of Injuries except those of a major nature. In such cases, arrangements will be worked out to provide speedy removal of all patients to a medical center. Vacationists who take to the woods When the. mercury climbs into the upppf brackets will find the 161,000,000 acres of national forest even more pleasant than usual this year. New forest trails and roads, public camp Improvements and a limited amount of tree planting are only a few of the additions to the vacationer's pleasure that President Roosevelt's civilian conservation corps will bring. In the field of safety from fires there will be new telephone lines strung, new landing fields set out for airplanes, new fire breaks, lookout towers and. observatories, and range water development. Also, the reforestation army will tackle the job of insect and tree disease control, and other range and forest work. Seeks Buried Treasu^ill-,-- Under City of Montreal Montreal.--Pots of gold, caskets of gems, trunks of silver plate are secreted 'neath turf and pavement of the Island of Montreal. So believes the man who the other day made history when he applied for a license to dig--treasure. He was formally introduced to city hall officials by his alderman. He explained that during the hectic days of the revolution of 1837, when "Les Patriotes" were fighting for constitutional liberty, "some of our best people" burled their gold to hide it from "Les Anglais." He knew where some of it was. He had a license from the Quebec mines department. All he needed was a city digging-license. } The city hemmed and hawed, made the man promise he would do no material damage, and saltf It-would look the other way. The spot? Ssssh! , Mrs. Roosevelt Shuns Title, "The First Lady" Washington.--Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt does not like to be referred to in print as "the first lady of the land." She described the phrase "First Lady," which appeared in newspaper clippings submitted to her, as meaningless and undemocratic. If there must be a special description of the President's wife, Mrs. Roosevelt prefers "the nation's hostess. 1* This phrase was suggested by Mrs. Wood row Wilson. * Claims Longest Paved Street Broad street.

STeW York.--Missing girls sre 'Kcoming the biggest kind of a bother to. the New York police department. Some 2,160 of them disappeared in New York during the last calendar year and numbers of them never could be found. Many wound up In police stations or In underworld dens. A few met untimely ends--their bodies were found abandoned by roadsides, in the resort rooms where they were slain, or In out of the way hiding places. A sizable group eloped to presumably happy marriages. Of the runaways 1,688 were under seventeen years of age. And of these some six hundred or more went the wrong road far enough to claim the attention of the police department's crime prevention bureau. Nearly a hundred of them ended their adventures in the police headquarters line, up on charges of felony--homicide, robbery, arson, and assault. , According to Commissioner Edward P. MuSroomy, however, the vast ma^ jority of the runaways were not baid girls, but were "Just dissatisfied--dissatisfied with their homes, their places of employment, their whole environment. They were not bad, they were merely out of step." Many Blame Sluiigp. - The depression, of course* was to blame for hundreds of the disappearance cases. With the head of the family out of work, the larder all but empty, small youths crying for food, no funds with which to buy finery or •even decent clothes, hundreds of girls In their early high school years suited action to prolonged periods of despair over their plight by vanishing Into the maelstrom of city life In search of whatever change in fortune the future might have In store for them. Anything better than their present lot, they seemed to reason. On the other hand, C^pt. John H. Ayers, for the last fifteen years head of the missing persons bureau and generally recognized as one of the world's leading experts on the "missing girl" problem, Is convinced that the depression has been instrumental In keeping Just as many would-be runaways at home as it has forced out Into the uncharted byways. Perhaps more. "Fifteen-year-old Jane, tired of dishwashing and bedmaklng, and with a runaway bee buzzing in her bonnet, will most often think twice before she gives up the safety and protection of that humble abode and goes out in search of the Job nowadays," the captain explained. "With unnumbered millions out of work the country over and wage scales not what they used to be for those lucky enough to find work, the prospect is not so alluring as It might be." - „ Nearly All Accounted For. Captain Ayers estimates that, fully 98 per cent of the girls reported missing here year In and year out are either restored to their relatives or otherwise accounted for. Vast numbers of them return thoroughly <disillusioned-- of their own accord. Many who had run away In a fit of pique are found in the homes of friends or acquaintances after a night or two of absence. The reasons why young girls leave home are many and varied--almost as many and as varied as the, subjects of the Individual cases, according to Captain Ayers. Some of the stock motives were summed by the expert as discontentment with home surroundings, failures! at school lessons, desire to "live one's own life," eagerness to earn money, clothes and^luxuries, desire to go on the stage and-- men. As for the stage struck girl, she is becoming virtually non existant so. far as the "missing" lists disclose. Cap- ; tain Ayers believes that the records would show that out-of-town girls who come here to make a name on the Stage are not one-fifteenth what they were a few years ago. Whether the stage has lost its lure or the fact that so many of its people are looking for work like folk in more prosaic callings, the bureau chief cannot guess. He only knows that the wouldbe stage beauties who claim the pror fessional attention of his investigators are becoming fewer and fewer every year. Not one single case of a stage struck girl was entered on the bureau's records last year. . City Council Proceedings 'Council Room, June 1, 1988.
