f o : by RAYMOND PITCAIRN ; Probably no recent report from Congress has been more disturbing to the American people than that from a Senate committee citing political activity in distribution of public funds appmprhbodm to aid the jobless and unfortunate. â€" Such practies injure both the employed, who pay the taxes from which such funds are sfi&x:llied, and the unemployed, whose needs they are appropriated to meet. .‘They violate not only the American sense of justice, but our basic tradition of personal freedom, by threatening to make the recipients de: pendent on party politics for the necessities of life. . _ : . _: ‘By increasing the cost of aid to the unfortunate, they reâ€" tard also the very processes which would relieve the wideâ€" spread unemployment that still affticts America. | > < Resolutions of condolence, cards of thanks, obituaries, notices of entertainments, or other affairs where an admission fim“ will at regular advertising rates.

LOOKING BACKWARD LIBRARY T H EBE PR E&8 Washington, D.C., Jan. 14â€"It is somewhat significant that since the opening of the 76th Congress most of my "letters from home" are deâ€" voted to international questions of policy rather than to purely domesâ€" tic questions. If the constituent mail of an individual Member of Conâ€" gress is any criteria, it would apâ€" To what extent my personal mail from constituents truly reflects the focal point of public attention. L have no means of knowing..: But of: one t&ng I am e'guln. These letâ€" ters, telegrams and postal cards deâ€" finitely show there is no unanimity of opinion as to what our foreign policy should be. Some urge that the embargo against the shipment of arms to Spain be lifted. Others are equally insistent that it should not be. Some urge strict adherence to éxisting neutrality laws,. Others appeal for amendments. Some ask that "economic sanctions" be apâ€" plied to Japan in the interest of China, Others are definitely against such a policy. j In general the diffeérence between the two is this: In the neutrality law pertaining to Spain the Conâ€" gress itself definitely said by law that a state of "civil strife" exists and the prohibition| against exporâ€" tations was to apply. In the neuâ€" trality law covering the Chinaâ€"Jaâ€" panese conflict, and like conflicts, the Congress itself did not say by law that a "state of wn}i:'exinted in Asia and the prohibit were to apply. Rather the Con#reu vested discretion in the President to decide when the law would have full force and effect. 5 reok ‘â€"Thus in the Spanish situation the President is without discretion in imposing export prohibitions; but in the Chinaâ€"Japanese situation he deâ€" termines whether the Act should be applied. To date the President has not seen fit to invoke the full force of the neutrality act in the Sinoâ€" Japanese conflict on the theory that a completé embargo, which must employed, would tmbo hurt China apply equally to both countries if employed, would tend to hurt China and indirectly assist Japan. It is common knowledge that the latter has industrial materials whereas the former must rely on foreign imporâ€" tations. . o pear that at the present time the public is more interested and conâ€" cerned as to what should be our Government‘s polity with respect to the ii‘xzo-.lapmese War and the war in Spain than as to what should be our policy on such matters as Fedâ€" eral expenditures, let us say. From the President‘s Message to Congress on January 4th it is not clear whether he has in\mind to . It would be folg' to attempt to predict what action, if any, the Congress will takeiop these extremâ€" ely important and extremely deliâ€" cate foreign situations. By a Joint Resolution © approved January â€" 8, 1937, Congress dacrl&md that insoâ€" Tar as the *‘civil strife" in Spain is goncerned it is unlawful to export arms for use of either of the opâ€" posing forces. Under this Resoluâ€" tion practically no. discretion is vested in the Presid6ht except in deâ€" termining what specific materials come within the terms "arms,‘ amâ€" munition and implements of war" as not exportable. . f The policy of the United States with respect to the undeclared war between China and Japan is determâ€" ined by another Joint Resolution (Approved May 1, 1937). It should be noted that it is somewhat differâ€" ent in character from that applicâ€" able to the Spanish conflict, | Unless the distinction is made there will be constant confusion in, our thinkâ€" ing. .
