The house turned out 244 in six hours. One of these provided $2,500 for an oil portrait of Hoover, a Republican who fell into disrepute when Franklin Roosevelt came to power. In a way this was symbolic, for it was Republicanism's day to howl and Franklin Roosevelt's hour of gloom. Passed by the senate, his emacibill had limped ated from the hostile house banking committee, finally reaching the floor where a motion was made to consider it. Growled the rules committee's Carl R. Mapes (Rep. Mich.): "I can see no justification for this legislation." Chimed in the banking committee's fellow Jesse Wolcott: "This bill's purpose . . . is to circumvent the lend-spen- d Michi-gandc- r, While the national debt limit." rules committee's Chairman Adolph J. Sabath of Illinois pleaded desperately. Republican Minority Leader Joseph Martin of Massachusetts smiled contentedly. The motion lost, 193 to 166, and Joe Martin's Republican-Democraticoalition had won. Next day came two more defeats. Adolph Sabath reported his unmanageable rules committee could not reach an agreement on the bill to increase federal housing subsidies (Later, when the by $800,000,000. administration forced a house vote, the President was again rebuffed HO to 170.) A few hours later the house slashed Mr. Roosevelt's third 8 and final deficiency bill from to a paltry $53,190,059. Later, in the senate, this bill hit a filibuster sn:;g when efforts were made to attach a rider restoring WPA wage c cuts. Heaped atop his earlier neutrality labor defeat and the house-voteboard investigation, the President's lending, housing and deficiency setbacks spelled but one thing to observers: Congress is permanently House, and the historic 19J4-3era of pump priming is over. Calm in defeat, Mr. Roosevelt donned a seer's robes to tell reporters an economic slump can be expected now that legislation is dead. Next two days the stock market rose. d anti-Whit- e g lending-spendin- ( Meanwhile a surrey indicated that , even minus government aeencies have same $,60(),lW(),f)(M) avail-utilfor limns like thme outlined, compared with $1 ,:,() .IMWfllH) uhich the lendspend bill would have, spread over three years.

Miss Marble, as may be recalled, made her debut as a night club soloist last winter, and, after the current tennis season is over, she will go to Hollywood to make a motion picture provided the entrepreneur with whom she has signed is able to place her to advantage. The first woman to hold three Wimbledon and three American titles at one and the same time, designer of sports clothes, singer, potential actress, Miss Marble's versatility is not confined to these things. She could, if she had not to her expressed regret got beyond such things, play Softball baseball with facility equal to that' of most men. Also proficient in basketball as a member of the Polytechnic high, San Francisco, team, she was likewise a track athlete of no small ability. And, before that, sandlot football with her brothers and other boys claimed her enthusiasm. As a , old she started playing hard ball baseball with a younger brother, Harry (Tim) Marble, who later joined the Pacific Coast League Missions team as shortstop. It is said that Marble Pere, a farmer in Plumas county, Calif., at one time doubted whether he ever could wean the girl from a baseball bat which she swung on clubs otherwise composed of male players. But the gift of a tennis racquet at the age of 13 and subtle encouragements turned her thoughts to tennis. This happened when, in lieu of a career as a ball player, she had become the official mascot of the San Francisco Seals of the Pacific Coast League. Blonde, statuesque, with gray eyes, gracious in manner as she is in appearance lovely. Miss Marble won much favor wherever she went abroad. six-yea- r- d O'Ma-honey- 1790 jGk title-hold- ( Answers at bottom oj column.) "If of John . K i 1 - . if!
