Mo., declared today the administration's admin-istration's aid - to - democracies measure would "authorize the president to declare war." "It is simply a bill to authorize the president to declare war so far as international affairs are concerned con-cerned and to establish a totalitarian totali-tarian government as far as domestic do-mestic affairs are concerned," Clark said. Other comment: Sen. Ellison I. (Cotton Ed) Smith, I)., S. C: "We are about to give him (the president) absolute power over the purse and the people but not with my consent. If there ever was a time when congress should know what's to be done and specifically what's to be done, it is now." Sen. Theodore F. Green, D., R. I.: "Unless this bill contains something unexpected, I shall favor it. 1 have believed we should aid Great Britain because such aid really is aid to the United States since it gives us more chance to prepare and makes it less likely that we shall be attacked." at-tacked."

Sen. Robert M. La Follette, I'rog., Wis.: "This is not a bill to give the president power, it's a bill for congress to abdicate. It gives blank check authority to the president without safeguards and conceivably would permit him to dispose of our navy and allow foreign for-eign countries to base their war ships in our harbors." Sen. Janies F. Byrnes, 1)., S. C: "I'm in favor of the bill." Sen. Kenneth Mclvellar, Tenn.: "I think it is entirely all right." Sen. l'at Harrison, I)., Miss.: "I'm for the legislation." ,Sen. Tat AltCarran, !., Nev.: "I think it may constitute an act Of war, either directly or indirectly, indi-rectly, and I'm against it." Sen. Gerald I. Nye., II. X. D.: "This bill amounts to a request for a grant of power to the president equal to a declaration of war." Sen. John Miller, D., Ark.: "It gives him , blanket authority to take such measures as are necessary neces-sary to aid Britain as a matter of our own defense, and of that I approve, naturally assuming the president will give first consideration considera-tion to our own defense." Shaker Sam Rayburn: "If we intend to aid the democracies and I think an overwhelming majority ma-jority of the American people favor it it appears to me this the practical and efficient way to do it," i EYES West's Largest Oar Neu) Modern Save With Safety On Better Shoe All The Family! i i FTS LEATHER or COMPOSITION Heel Grinds Extra (t 5) 11 Si.

Apparently Hitler has not yet made up his mind which school of strategy he favors, though he seems to be leaning toward immediate im-mediate action. Signs of this are the large concentrations con-centrations of troops along the Atlantic coa.st from Norway to northwest France. In Brittany and Normandy, all owners of homes have been ordered to evacuate evacu-ate a atrip of land about thirty miles back from the coast. Communications Com-munications between thi3 30-mile coastal area and the rest of France have been completely suspended. sus-pended. Simultaneous attacks upon the British Isles and the Balkans are not out of the question, though dependent upon the weather. Heayy weather in the Balkans will make any major Nazi advance ad-vance extremely hazardous; foggy weather in the English Channel should make a Nazi Invasion of England easier than at almost any other times. Fog sometimes is so thick over the channel that it is absolutely impossible for airplanes to spot ships below, and this is exactly the covering a Nazi expeditionary force needs to edge up to the shores of England. It will be recalled re-called that last September the abihty of the R. A. F. to spot Nazi invasion ships broke up the attempt at-tempt at that time. Note Obviously the renewed efforts of the United States to arm and President Roosevelt's public urging must be a factor in Hitler's final decision between the two schools in the German high command. : I CAPITAL CIIAFF jji .

I MUCH A IK) ABOUT NOTHING Meetings of the senate Democratic Demo-cratic steering committee usually are routine and humdrum, but the session called to choose the new chairman of the judiciary committee com-mittee should be different. A lot of fireworks are expected over a seniority tangle between square- Men's f-S 7 Women V 4' J Children's! SHOP SERVICE SHOE LACES POLISHES jawed Senator Fred Van Nuys of Indiana and portly Fat McCarran of Nevada. . Both claim senior rights to this powerful committee post, and the steering committee will have a tough time choosing between them because both were made judiciary members on exactly the same day in March, 1933. Van Nuys, however, claims an edge on seniority because his name was placed above that of McCarran McCar-ran 'a on the committee's stationery station-ery and he occupied a senior seat at meetings. McCarran, on the other hand, for six years has constantly con-stantly protested thi3 "raw deal." Last year he kicked up euch a rumpus that a mutual friend went to Van Nuys and begged him to switch seats. "Pat's extremely jealous of you, Fred," said the friend, also a committee member. "He says you are not entitled to a higher seat, and that the fact that your name is above his on the committee's commit-tee's stationery hurts him politically politi-cally in Nevada. The only thing that apparently will quiet him is to give him your seat." This happened soon after Van Nuys returned from a grave illness ill-ness that nearly caused his death He agreed to the plea, with the understanding, however, that he was not waiving anv seniority rights. But now McCarran is using us-ing this seating concession as one of the bases for his demands for the chairmanship. Another is that he has "alphabetical" priority over Van Nuys. To this Van Nuys, his dander up, retorts that if alphabetical proirity is to be a factor, he has the issue clinched two ways first because Indiana comes before Nevada in the alphabet, and second sec-ond because Indiana was admitted to the Union long before Nevada. It's a fight almost worthy of the French chamber of deputies, and the Merry-Go-Round hereby offers an extra reward of a free ride to the winner.
