I'rivately mu?t members of both house and senate say there has been such a dangerous vote in years. If they vote with the President they have outraged an indeterminate number of persons, including a good many very vocal lawyers, back in their districts and states. They may have provided 6ome likely competitor in the next primaries with just the issue he reeded. If they vote against the President it may be just as bad, or worse! The President is liable to win out, on a as he always has before--savfew things of wholly incomparable political potentiality. If he does and they were against him, there may be reprisals and also that likely competitor back home will have a issue "Stand by the President." Much of this may still be true six weeks or two months hence, or whenever the seriate disposes of the question. Rut in six weeks or two months public opinion may have jelled. The house member will have been hearing not just from ready letter writers, but from his trusted lieutenants and friends back home, from people he can depend on to tell him the truth. Meanwhile he will have been reading eagerly some of the stories printed in the newspapers. Not so much the editorials. He can find out what the editors think any time. What he will read with most interest are the accounts oi little gatherings where the issue is debated. He will note with intense interest that John Jones, whom he knows all about, spoke vigorously for the President's side but that Sam Smith, about whom the congressman is equally well informed, took the other side. Bar Is Opposed He will see that the local bar association voted heavily against the President, and that the local labor unions voted unanimously for the President. Then it will be up o him to have a little work done. Did all the boys at that labor union meeting really feci that way, or did they do the usual of following the leader? The congressman will have a fairly accurate appraisal of that very shortly. He will know whether thin group or that, in addition to voicing their sentiments, really feel strongly enough about it to carry the grudge until next election day. Which is the only point in the case he really cares about. Now senators have always had the opportunity, before voting, to do all this digging, if they Acre of the ear to the ground variety, as distinguished from the forthright boys who leap into every fight at the beginning, sure of big newspaper headlines. Always in the past a vote of this sort is rushed in the house, and then the senate fights it out. The unfair part to members of the house in the past has often been that by the time the measure came back from the senate, it was nothing whatever like what the house members had voted for! Yet try to explain that to a sore constituent! This time the house members can sit back and wait till all the maneuvering and compromising is over, till the public debate has run its course. Maybe until the pub lic has gotten tired of it. And if the senate never voted at all, plenty of house members would be mighty pleased. e ready-mad- e home-tow- n g. t L.'ery one "i the y.t.' es sm ght old! conceivably be c.gh'.y if the Con-- : Dut if their eoi..-t- i uct.un Stitution were t; . t of J a ,ccs Louis D Urandcis v,l Hcnjui; in N.

First to conceive the 1930 exposition was its dynamic president, Leland S. Cutler, San Francisco insurance man. It was his efforts, largely, which obtained the federal grants that made possible the building of the two bridges and, later, the construction of Exposition island. He has been ably supplemented by his assistant, Howard Freeman, whose work in securing important exhibitors has been especially notable. World's Longest Span.

By building its own site, the administration of the fair manages to avoid many of the evils which have confronted other exposition.?. Indeed Col. J. Franklin Bell, ext, ecutive says, "Tlvs is the first world's fair to have an ideal general plan." Colonel Bell points out that the plans for other world's fairs have had to be adjusted to fit irregularly shaped sites with resulting loss of symmetry, balance and beauty. Many of these sites, he says, hae been encumbered with permanent incongruous features which could not be made to fit into the general exposition plan harmoniously; that such sites have frequently been surrounded by ugly grounds and structures which detracted from the architectural, lighting and color ef- bow-kn- material requir- used; ements. j This exposition, the first to be held in the bay area since the famed Panama-Pa- t itie exposition, whose exquisite beauty enthralled some 14,000,000 visitors in 1015, expects to concede nothing in the way of beauty and interest to the old fair, and is confident of outdrawing it in attendance.

The government is still buying prodigious quantities of silver in accordance with the silver law which directs the Treasury to keep on buying silver until it either reaches a price of SI. 2!) an ounce or a ratio of one to three with the gold held by the government. Actually the ratio is still about one to five due to the fact that the government has been obliged to take over so much gold poured into this country by foreigners either for safety or other reasons. Whereas the world price of silver is still slightly under 45 cents, as compared with about 44 cents when the silver buying program began. Secretary Morgenth.au discloses that the Treasury has invested in silver since the passage of the silver act, and that the average price paid is about GO cents. Which means that the net loss to the government on its silver operations to date has been $275,000,000 a loss incurred without getting anywhere in the direction of either of the two specified objectives: A considerable fractior of this loss of course has been in the purchase of newly mined silver from domestic producers. For a long time now the government has been paying domestic producers about 7" cents an ounce. It will be recalled that this price paid United States miners and mining companies ran along as a sort (if sliding scale, during the period immediately passage of the act, when purchases by the United States government were pushing the world price up and up, disrupting fiscal affairs in China, and inspiring enWheeler's Plan thusiasts and speculators to behove Best opinion is that the proposal that the $1.29 objective would really of Senator Burton K.
