It's pip to the Senate! & After the House had, a vote of 282 to IBS. voiced its disapproval of the President's Re-organization Plan No. 4,-Administration leaders in the Senate began to rally their forces in an attempt to uphold the Presidential proposal. Under provisions of the Executive Order, the Civil Aeronautics Authority would be returned to the jurisdiction of the Department of Commerce and the Air Safety Board which has done such a fine job, would be completely abolished. The President's Plan has been met with a storm of: protest on Capital Hill. Unless both Houses of Congress disapprove the Plan it becomes effective. Administration leaders are resorting to all types of strategy to delay a Senate vote on the measure as long as possible so that they may have sufficient time to attempt to convert Senators who are at the present tim« opposed to the Plain. Senator Pet McCarran (D) <vf Nevada, father of the Civil Aeronautics Act, is leading the Senate fight against the White House. It is expected that the vote in the Set), ate will be very c'ose. Force to Meet F«m It is expected that the Senate Committee on Naval Affairs will in the very near future favorably report to the Sfcnate, the House-approved Vinson Naval expansion program. ,This program, if adopted, will authorize construction of aircraft carriers, cruisers and submarines, but does not provide for the authorization of any new: battleship construction, America must speed its preparedness program. With: World affairs in a chaotic condition <$urv nation must be prepared to defend itself against possible assailant or group of assailants. Merely saying that we are neutral is not enough; we must be prepared to defend that: neutrality. The pitiful pleas of the small weak nations of Europe who are feeling the heel of the ruthless invaders are clear evidence of the fact that we must be prepared to meet the brute force of would-be world conquerors with greater and more efficient force. Mexico's Santa Clans By a vote of 45 to 36, the Senate has passed and sent to the House a bill which, if enacted into law, will prohibit future purchases of foreign silver. A large amount of our foreign silver purchases have been made from Mexico who will be remembered as the nation which seized millions of dollars worth of oil and agricultural lands owned by United States citizens and who has continuously refused to compensate the owiiers for such seizure and has refused to even submit to arbitration of the matter. Certain Administration proponents of the measure who contend that our discontinuance of purchases .of Mexican silver will be a blow to our "Good Neighbor Policy" have apparently failed to consider the fact that Mexico has demonstrated by her actions in the seizure of American owned lands that she has been anything but a "good neighbor." Whether or not the House will join with the Senate in outlawing the foreign silver purchase program is somewhat problematical at the present time. Representatives from the silver-producing states believe that if the foreign pur-: chase program is ended there will1 soon be an effort made to put an end to domestic silver purchases by the government and these silver staters are expected to place every obstacle possible in the way of House approval of the Senate's recent action. Well infoimed Capital sources predict that the Administration will make every effort possible to stymie the bill in the House.
