After volcine 'ieml conception of the at- mililtcd by Mr. Ickes urirf f lot tlonra ilea had Its start In the Virgin islands, but it has progressed beyond that point and Is a domestic battle now. It Is safe to say that for IS years which Is the time the islands' have been under United States rule, there has been a dire need for a plan of government suited to those peo ple. Each year congress has been appropriating thousands of dollars for the island government and each year there has been miserably little In the way of improvement to show for these funds. Almost as frequently as congress has appropriated money it has made changes In the administration methods In use there. There has never been a long term program laid out and there has been nothing whatsoever done showing the sympathy of a intellectual people as we claim to be for those downtrodden masses that populate the Virgin Islands. All of this, It seems to me, shows the woeful need for careful consideration of that situation. It seems to me equally apparent that as long as congress keeps meddling In and as long as politicians from the mainland are sent there purely on a political basis we will continue to have a pack of trouble bundled up In those Virgin islands. If congress continues past August 15, and it parent Long Session run to Severe Strain 225 days, some in session is now apthat it may September It have been In session two weeks longer L than the average of the long sessions of congress. Prior to adoption of the "lame duck" amendment which did away with sessions of unequal length, the shorter ses sions of congres averaged about 170 days. The longer terms were around 215 days before final ad journment was taken. Thus, the cur rent session stands In a fair way to be among the list of hardy sessions. All of which is by way of saying that the current session of congress has worn down Its members both physically and mentally to an extent quite unusual. I was talking a few days ago with a veteran senator, a man who has served almost 25 years In the upper house of con gress. He Is known as a physically strong individual and usually lasts very well through the work that plies up before senators and representatives. I Inquired of him concerning the general health of congress and his reply was: "I regret to say we are Just a bunch of debilitated old men, in excapable of doing the Job that Is Is hoping us and of everyone pected against hope that we can live through this work and this heat." As a result of that conversation the thought came to me that here was an answer to the oft repeated declaration that members of con gress failed to earn their salaries of S10.000 a year. I have observed congressional proceedings almost a score of years and it is my mature conviction that few times in that period has congress failed to earn Its salt. anrl-lr-k-p- M r F him Of Htlciimtlnn- .

If the mother can arrange It, she should provide a definite place In which the children can exercise their hobbies. If the hobby Is the rearing of animals or birds, the mother should impress on the children that their pets are not toys or plnythlngs, and that they must be loved and cared for. There Is a greater likellhod of a hobby turning out a success If the mother gives the child to understand that the success or failure of the hobby depends entirely upon the child. c'u.eu tiietr WASHINGTON.
