Neither annual burning-ove- r Is good do I know of laws compelling woods and by campers, huct g V President Roosevelt he wants It to finish its bors and adjourn order- ln Long Session lie 8hort has figured that about three months ought to give the members sufficient time to mull over the problems that confront them and that they then should return to their several homes. But the President Is doomed to disappointment If he sincerely believes that he can get congress out of the Capitol by the end of March. The best guess right now Is that congress will be In session at least four months and. It Is well within the range of possibilities that It will remain In session almost to the time of the national conventions. There are a number of factors that make realization of the Presidents early adjournment wish Impossible of realization. Probably the most influential of these Is the fact that this Is a campaign year. d Every member of the house and of the senate, along with Mr. Roosevelt himself, are affected by the election date and politics must have Its turn. Every four years this same condition obtains and every four years politicians do about the same things ln furtherance of their own political Interests. The bulk of the legislation to be considered has Its political tinge. Politics even creep Into the annual appropriation bills and usually the result Is a swelling of the totals In order that some gears of Individual political machines may be oiled just a bit for smooth running ln the campaign. While the appropriation bills are important from a political standpoint, their weight In this session of congress sinks rather below par because there are such things as the bonus for the World war veterans, the Townsend old age pension plan, various New Deal reform measures and such replacement legislation os may be necessary since the Supreme court kicked over New Deal propo sitlon8 like the Agricultural Adjust ment act with Its processing taxes and sundry other schemes. However the Roosevelt leaders ln congress may desire to act, the machinery of legislation can bd run only so fast in an election year. Washington. has told congress that one-thir- One of the chief reasons why a congressional session In an election year drags on Seek longer than usual Publicity ,s because of the value publicity the sessions have for Individual representatives and senators. Members of congress discovered a hundred years ago that the chambers of the house and senate constituted splendid sounding boards for the dissemination of political views. There has been Increasing use of this potentiality as the years have gone by until now the older members of the house and senate have become very adept ln capitalizing on this factor. It takes no stretch of the Imagination to discover that a senator or representative, speaking from the floor of his respective chamber, gets much more publicity than his opponent back home who talks only as a private citizen. It Is perfectly natural, therefore, that those members seeking want to take full advantage of the publicity vehicle available to them In Washington. The use of this publicity weapon Is available to opponents of the New Deal as well as to Its supporters. While the appronchlng election may be expected to knit the house Democrats more closely Into a unified front for the November election, the same condition Is not true ln the scnnte. In that body, there are a Democrats who number of do not like the New Deal and who are going to utilize every available opportunity to make their record as Democrats as complete as It Is possible to do before they must speak to the home folks In person. It Is obvious that such men as Senator Carter Glass of Virginia cannot desert the Democratic ticket and run for Independently. So It Is to be expected thnt men of this type will establish for themselves a comprehensive outline of their political beliefs as Democrats while distinguishing their position from that known as the New Deal. They must look to the future when, according to all Indications, they feel the party machinery will again be controlled by the Jeffersonian type of Democrat Instead of by the reform type of Democrat headed by men and women with the New Deal outlook. old-lin- e . An additional factor operating In the senate Is the presence of two Republican PresI-TwMore dentlal posslblli- tl,,s ,n the perFactors sons of Sena l or William E. Borah of Idaho and Arthur II. Vnndenberg of Michigan. Senator Borah Is actively seeking pledged delegates to the Republican national convention. Senator says he Is not a candidate, o g but the well known bra is buzzing around and there are many observers who think that Senator Vanden-ber- g Is hoping that, in case of a convention stalemate, the assembled delegates may riot and turn to him as the nominee. Such a condition means, as It has meant before, that these two men will desire to see all of the political Issues aired In congressional debates. It Is only natural and logical as well that the Republican minority In the house and, senate will seek to foment as much debate as possible ln order to obtain a record of what the majority party thinks or proposes to do If returned to Y ' us to give public jobs to men and women who refuse to take such an oath or requiring us to leave them in their jobs should they violate that oath.

The administration apparently Is willing to let congress work out the legislation without much Interference but the leaders realize that a decision will be diflicult as long as foreign maneuvers continue to present an almost daily change In the scenery. Reference Is made to the neutralV ity question here because It is one of the things entering Into the combination that will cause a longer session than the President wishes. There seems to be no doubt that passage of a bill to pay the soldiers' bonus at an early date will be ac.Xv.y, complished ln this session. Likewise, there is hardly the shadow of Frank C.

The court has before It any number of cases Involving New Deal policies, Including such as the AAA, the TVA with Its Tennessee Valley power yardstick, the attempt to regulate wages and hours of labor under the GufTey coal bill known as the Little NBA, and a half dozen other policy propositions. It seems unlikely, although no one can guess, that all of these measures will be held constitutional. If any are held Invalid, naturally the President will ask congress to draft new legislation. As a sample of the political aspect of the current session, one can cite the furor that was stirred up when President Roosevelt delivered his message on the state of the Union to s night session of congress. Except for one Instance. Presidents always have delivered or sent their message to congress at noon of a day after the session has had two or three meetings. Mr. Roosevelt chose to get his message to congress on the very first day of the current session but In order to do It und uliow for consummation of the usual routine of the opening day. It was necessary to hold a joint session at night. The White House announcement of this decision Immediately precipitated a biting demand from Republican Henry P. Fletcher, Mr. Fletcher national chairman. charged that since the President's speech was being delivered "out of hours" and was being broadcast to potentially the greatest radio audience ever to listen to a Presidential message of this kind, the broadcasting companies must agree to allocate time for the Republicans to answer It. The Republican chairman asserted that the message was reduced to the "common level of a political speech" and so he demanded for the opposition the right t nnnlyze It from the opposition standpoint through the siune number of radio stations and to potentially the same radio audience. t viw VI A VjS' 1 port the government Should any be In an earlier letter, I reported to you concerning the question of a The Faculty Flag Pledge CALIF.
