Playing hooky is not confined to schoolboys. The legislative situation this week is slightly muddled due to the absence of many Congressional leaders, The open candidacy of Postmaster General Farley has the town bv the ears for it dissolves many nebulous phases of the third term controversy. The impression is growing that the Democratic national convention will witness a distinct split in the party. Oh the other hand, the Republican camp presents anything but a harmonious scene as ambitious leaders and their cohorts endeavor to line-up state delegations to the nominating convention. The lesser fry seeking only re-election to Congressional office are building up claims of service to their constituents as campaign fodder and flooding their voting public with propaganda. The tax situation is still plaguing Congress. Despite the fact that income tax returns showed an increase of thirty-one oer cent over last year the Treasury Department declares the additional yield will not compensate for the present rate of snending. Attempts of the House to keep the governmental expenditures for the next fiscal year down to shooting distance of the budget have failed because of the Senate's generosity. It now seems that the economy program has been scuttled with the Senate's passage of a farm bill containinc $212 million parity payments, which were not in the budget and represents an increase of eighty-five million over the House figure. It is believed that the House will acquiesce in the Senate's bountiful gesture to the farmers. The Joint Committee on Internal Revenue taxation, which is a body of experts maintained by Congress in a minor capacity, has been exploring the tax field with the hope of uncovering new sources of revenue. One study gives serious consideration to the possibility of raising the age limits from eighteen to twenty-one for dependent children so that the exemption would be allowed to many parents who are paying their children's way in the realm of higher learning. Representative Merritt, of New York, introduced a bill a few days ago to provide credit for dependents under twenty-two years of age while in school or college. These experts are also endeavoring to provide a tax device to prevent wealthy individuals splitting up their income among members of their families in order to reduce their surtax rates. With Congress freely criticising government departments for adding to the taxpayers burden, it is significant that the Senate and House sidestepped debate on their own activities in this direction. The legislative appropriation bill, which passed the, House is now pending in the Senate, and contains an authorization for $328,500 to pay for approximately 300 additional clerks put on the payroll of the members of the House. The record shows that 277 new clerks were employed by the legislators, although twelve members refrained from taking advantage of the situation. There are now approximately 1300 clerks employed by House members bringing the total House employ list up to about 2400. The Senate and House appropriated an enormous sum of money to install an air conditioning system in the Capitol and adjacent office buildings used by themselves. It requires the services of twenty-two engineers to keep the legislators comfortable insofar as climatic conditions are concerned. The Secretary of the Interior, the stormy petrel of the New Deal, is again roundly denounced in Congress for high-handed tactics. As the legislators are driven frantic by appeals and dire threats of political extinction from organized constituents of war and flood hazards unless the Army engineers do something, the military men can place the blame directly on the shoulders of the lawmakers, who are passing out the taxpayers money ostensibly for relief purposes without considering the long range effect*. For instance, the Army engineers have found from experience that it is best to have their work under contract without being obliged to employ relief workers which adds to the cost and results in delays. One of the relief agencies, the P. W. A., under Ickes has been allotted hundreds of millions ffer dams along navigable streams over objections of the War Department which has been interested in flood control. As a consequence, the rising waters now find many of the dams nullifying th^ flood control plans of the Army. The result of this feud is that Ickes has his public water power plans and the public have floods. FIND BODY FLOATING ^ IN NIPPERSINK CREEK In exchange for a postage stamp, B. C. Berger of Seattle, Wash., received a house and lot. The stamp was of a rare 1868 Canadian issue. Art Shipley of St. Louis accidentally mixed .22 caliber cartridges with smoking tobacco and shot a hole through the rim of his hat when he lit up his pipe. Til# body of Walter Anderson, 49 years old, who was reported missing December 1, was found Tuesday, March 19, floating on the ice-cluttered Nippersink Creek along U. S. Highway 12 in the northeast corner of McHenry county. Lake and McHenry county deputy sheriffs and two coroners said then were no signs of violence on Anderson's body. Anderson was last seen in a tavern in Fox Lake last fall. He was taken to his home near Fox Lake by an acquaintance from the tavern. The next day he could not be found. The authorities said that Anderson, after he was taken home that night last fall, apparently walked to the shore of the creek and fell in accidentj ally. The body was recovered about I 300 feet from the Lake county linfi •A TELEPHONE CONTRIBUTES TO BETTER LIVING AND BETTER FARMING It calls help quickly in caae of fir*.
