NT CARLSON, Agent, ' 1 ---- McBsnry Si . Washington, June 22--Job-hunters and their political sponsors have descended upon the Capitol seeking gifts from the patronage counter. Congress left largo appropriations and authorizations for the employment of expert* and others. The solons, already. flooded with begging letters and some preemptory demands from henchmen back home, quickly disappeared from their official Uirs when the gavel fell for adjournment. It is surprising the number of lawyers, economists and other alleged experts, who are either foot-loose or willing to give up present employment for a berth on Uncle Sam's payroll. Leading in the list of contenders for positions are the small army of former N. R. A. employees, who feel that experience under the Blue Eagle entitles them to special consideration. This type is making a big play for, job assignments under the new labor standards act, which they insist is comparable to the N. R. A., as is deals With questions of wages and hours The Labor Department, which will figure pirominently in the administra tion of the law, is the magnet these days. It is known that the Administration created under the Act will probably be selected from the names forwarded to the President by Secretary of Labor Perkins before she sailed for Europe. The word has been passed that employees for this newer agency will be selected from Civil Service lists, which will complicate thej loading of political appointees. The law does not become operative until, 120 days after the President signs.' The bill was enacted after warninga, about a long series of Supreme Court decisions about the commerce clauses J The pro-labor forces insist the courts will sustain it on the grounds of needed regulation of public health. / Opinion differs as to the achieve-j ments of the Congress. Senator Bailey. of North Carolina, an old-line Democrat, remarked, "It is possible that we might cure things by staying longer,1 but the evidence up to now is quite to the contrary." That was obviously the general sentiment. The legislators re-| sisted all efforts to keep their noses to the grind stone. The White House threat of a special session after the| elections to consider railroad and other matters fell on deaf ears. The solons have their troubles in the home districts which requires their personal attention. I Officials of all states and their political machines will examine with a hostile eye the latest report of the National Resources Committee. The recommendations of this Federal agency, contained in a document "The Future of State Planning," is something that should interest taxpayer* in all communities. The findings, as submitted to the President and made public this week, involve vital ques-| tions as to the relationship of the central government to the governors ( and lesser fry in the state administrations. The gentle hint is emphasized, that 'Uhe State planning movement has depended to a very large extent on Federal financial assistance." The lawmakers will also underline the comment that "the planning boards normally have a closer relationship to the Governor than to State legislature." j The situation in many- common wealths has been anything but happy.' The cause of friction is mentioned in] the Federal report which concedes that . Miss Zorra Kilgare, slender and in their with the public "th, jjfgSflJ State pUnning bcrds .re faced with ^ a dilemma. It seems that if the ac- tbnxifh the rocky Mi»i around El tivities of the board are publicized ex- paao> 0f Dm heavy tensively the State departments may WOrk and likes it. "I don't knew feel, and quite rightly, that they are how I got the idea, bat I do know I not receiving the proper credit for want to be a mining engineer. I their work." On the other hand, "if, tike the outdoors," she says, the board receives no publicity, it may have difficulty in securing adequate' financial support or public support for its general objectives." The govern* ment agency feels that a partial solii-^ tion would be to "publicize no person-. ality" and the state boards should,, have no lay members on their way, up the political ladder." All of which j is more ideal than practical with; planning board authorizing to arrange stae projects from which patronage and political capital could be derived. And the National Resources Board consists of five Cabinet members, WTP. A. Administrator Hopkins and F. H. Delano, tlie Presidents uncle. . The meanderings of the National Economic Committee created to make a sweeping concern inquiry into practically all phases ofbusiness activity are a source of concerrix Business officials are likely to d«er vacations with the prospect of committee agents appearing at the offices with demands for dat* heietofore regarded as private and confidential. The committee expected to make sensat^nal plays in the early fall--just prior to the elections. The more orderly aspects of the inquiry will be in effect when facts rather than scandal are more desirable. Business^and industrial leaders are preparing to take the raids of the committee as part of the political picture. They fully anticipated a wave of one-sided evidence for the proponents of the committee want an excuse for more intensive regulation of business. Congress may not be in session, but their mop-up squads will be busy.
