' - NO LAGUAKDIA. HE , -: Assistant Secretary of Agriculture Agri-culture Grover B. Hill went to Wichita Falls, Texas, when Mayor LaGuardia of New York was scheduled to speak there. Hill is an ox-like man, with a mop of black hair, and his features are not unlike those of New York's "Little Flower." He decided to follow the crowd . and listen to LaGuardia's speech. Suddenly he was approached by a group of men. Their spokesman said: "Welcome to Wichita Falls, Mr. Mayor. We are the reception committee." 5 "Not for me," said the assistant secretary. ; "Yes, sir," said the .spokesman. "And we've got only a few minutes min-utes before the address begins. Will you come along?" "No, thanks," said Hill. "I'm just going to stay here and listen to the speech." The men were perplexed. "The time is getting short, Mr. Mayor "But I'm not the mayor," said Hill. In some embarrassment, the Wichita Falls reception committee withdrew a few paces and went Into a huddle. Presently they came back, with smiles on their faces, and said, "Mr. Mayor, we appreciate your little joke, but It really is time to go." NATIONAL MORALE No announcement has been made about it, but the job of energizing en-ergizing national morale has been turned over to Mayor LaGuardia. Nor- has any announcement been made of the bitter inner cabinet debate as to wnether he should be appointed. This job is in addition to La-Guardia's La-Guardia's duties as director of civil defense, and the inside story goes back to last December, when Roosevelt was urged to counteract counter-act subversive Nazi-Communist propaganda. He agreed, but said Lowell Mellett, an "anonymous" "White House secretary, was handling hand-ling it. Mellett is one of the most gen-, gen-, Oemanly and well-jntentioned men in official Washington. As a host or companion on a golf -course he is -without a peer. But not when it comes to forceful action. Leading writers, playrigbts, ; theater and movie producers and other prominent figures, eager for a patriotic drive to speed defense, de-fense, had bombarded Mellett for months with offers of volunteer service and plans and suggestions. But nothing happened. I THE OLD RUN-AROUND I Finally Secretary Ickes raised the matter at a cabinet meeting 'and offered to formulate a program. pro-gram. Roosevelt gave his approval. appro-val.
