Already the signs point to the growth of cliques and blocs--a development forecasting bitter 'class warfare around the Capitol The feeling prevails that President Roosevelt's bag of worries will be gathered by the widely assorted collection that came into office solely because they wore the Roosevelt label.

FREUND Main Street MeHenry, QL by the average voter. Reference has been made to the broad claims of trade unions that "they elected Roosevelt." Other cliques like the Townsendites and Coughlinites far-outnumbered in actual membership the combined strength of organized labor. It is pointed out that a voter's membership in a fraternal group does not bind him. to follow the political preferences of leaders Hence, labor's ar« rogant boast of putting over the reelection is taken with a liberal dose of salt. Advisors are recommending that Mr. Roosevelt should stand out against the clamour of cliques for favors. The enormous majorities in the Senate and House are gratifying at first flush, but the legislative leaders here contemplate the future with anything but joy. They anticipate more trouble from the conglomeration of lawmakers who owe their jobs to the Roosevelt band-wagon which swept them into office A militant Republican minority is something to consider as relatively insignificant when threatened by reyolts and arbitrary demands of those wearing the Democratic party livery. Because important jobs were filled when the party took over the reins in March, 1933, it is unlikely that jobs on government payrols will meet only a portion of the patronage demand. Failure to approve every hairbrained scheme of legislation simply to appease this and that bloc will multiply the occasions of headaches by the New Deal high command. It would be erroneous to assume that return to high office by unprecedented popular and electoral votes automatic- Ally provided a bed of roses for the President. Mr. Roosevelt's intemperate remark about inviting hatreds at his final campaign speech in New York is a source of concern. Chairman Farley's denial that reprisals against political foes is openly scouted. Doubters say it is an easy matter to place the blame for inquisitorial tactics on Congress which has a mania of hunting headlines by probing into private affairs of citizens. If the legislators take their cue from the President's class appeal the organised opposition to Mr. Roosevelt is due for an ordeal of grilling. Some cool-headed partisans are now suggesting to their colleagues that their opponents represented nearly 19 million voters and political strategy would be served best by letting bygones be bygones. Conservative Democrats and'Republicans are alert to the implications of a legislative program which contemplates tinkering with the Constitution and the Supreme Court. Trade unions are the chief agitators for an amendment to the Constitution covering wages, hours and working conditions. It is argued the time is propitious to push the measure through Congress and through states where the Democrats have twenty-seven governors to help the drive. The current, meeting of the A.F. of L. in Tampa; rivets attention on labor's internecine troubles and political program. Farmers and consumers will be greatly interested in the Department of Agriculture's forecast for hay and pasture because of cost of livestock. The weather is the only stumbling block to assurance of an ample hay crop for next year. The hay crdp of 70 million tons ji*st harvested/ was with a single exception the smallest yield in twenty years. Meanwhile, Secretary Wallace is launching a crop insurance program involving wheat, cotton and corn. Private insurance companies will be given a chance at the business. There are numerous technical matters which must be worked, out before final recommendations for legislation are submitted to the President. Variety is the spice of life and that is what makes us think that the political pie is pretty highly flavored. Geo.

PLAYTIME COSTUME Peel Off Flaws of Pearl As a pearl grows, it is possible for an expert to "peel" off flaws or imperfections if they are not too deep.
