Show BEAR RIVER VALLEY LEADER, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 1835 Economic Highlights Those who forecast that the present Congress, like its predecessor, would for okeying be simply a rubber-stamthe plans and experiments of the President, were mistaken. The Congress ha3 a mind of its own these days, and it doesn't hesitate to express it. It isn't so disrupti'e to Presidential policies, of course, as the Congresses which wreaked havoc with the Hoover Administration, and contributed much to its collapse, but it is giving Mr. Roosevelt something to think about. The first actual rebellion against the White House came in the Senate, when the World Court was up for a vote. Every President since the war has advocated American participation in the Court, with reservations and every President has been turned down flat by the Senate. It was almost universally believed, however, that Mr. Roosevelt would be able to do what Harding, Coolidge and Hoover were unable to do. Most big newspapers outside of the Hearst chain were for the World Court, as were most publicists and political commentators of both parties. It is said that congratulations were being received by World Court advocates before a vote was taken, so certain seemed the passing of the necessary bill. Fight for the Court was led by Majority Leader Robinson no expert on foreign policy, he is conscientious, hard working, loyal to his chief. Fight against it was led by SenaTors Borah and Johnson, who fear and despise any kind of participation in European affairs. Result was that the Court was defeated it gained a substantial majority in the vote, but not the necessary for authorizing American participation. Some twenty Democratic senators deserted Mr. Roosevelt to vote against the bill. That was major rebuff number one. Number two will probably arise when the President's social security program begins to be worked out. Few Senators seem to favor Mr. Roosevelt's recommendations they have other and, for the most part, wilder ideas as to what should be done for the aged, the ill and the destitute. It is no secret that the White House is worried, is bringing all pressure to bear in an effort to subdue opposition. The President's $5,000,000,000 public works bill has also found hard going. Congressmen are opposed to giving the sole authority for disbursing it into Mr. Roosevelt's hands, wish to the money for definite purposes. As a result, legislation is held up. Behind much of the opposition to the White House is the old element of political patronage. Mr. Roosevelt has not, in the view of many Congressmen, allowed them to make their choice of "Deserving Democrats" for government jobs; he has often disregarded the recommendations of Senators and Representatives as to state appointments.
