Then there are the payments to veterans, and the payments to farmers, which of course tet hh.cai'iy do not belong there, but can you imagine a sctually majority of both hou?e and senate :g to curtail payments to farm- ers'.1 And any one w ho thinks that, after an tr.e talk in the last campaign about the government using the money collected in pay roll deductions for old age pensions and unemployment insurance, for ordinary governmental expenditures, confess sois going to vote anything like soon is just ignorant of that the ordinary political mental processes. It finally gets down to the federal pay roll, about $1,500,000,000 a year. Ten per cent of that would be a year. That would be money to any other person or agency than the United States government. But it is less than one month's relief bill, at the rate of spending for this year meaning the year ending June HO next. It is perfectly true that the government cut all federal salaries almost fifteen per cent back in 1933, and that the country generally thought it was a pretty good idea. Hut tilings were different then. In the first place, most folks outside the government service had been taking cuts, some of them much more drastic than fifteen per cent. More important, people working under private employers had been subject to drastic weeding out proc- esses the fellow or girl who had kept his job being more or less lucky. $150,-000,0- nt l',- - 4 I Piteous Wails nt preparing to land.

So the public attitude was that the government employees, who up to that atrt of 1933 had not suffered from the 1929 debacle, were particularly favored and privileged class of workers. So when they were subjected to a fifteen per cent cut, though the wails in Washington and some other places were piteous, there was very little public sympathy. But now! Actually the workers outside, in a considerable percent age if not a majority of cases, have been the beneficiaries of salary and wage boosts, bonuses, and general advancement, not to mention reduc tion of hours. So that the govern ment clerks are no longer a privileged class. If anything, the contrary. There is another point, which in sheer logic has nothing to do with the case, but in the human equation figures importantly. At the same time that this salary cut was voted f by congress, the compensations and whatnots of the veterans were also cut. Senators and representatives have never been permitted to forget that, nor to cense regretting it. It gave them plenty of trouble at the ensuing election. Also, at the same time, congress cut the salaries of its own mem hers. Mrs. Senator and Mrs. Representative have not forgotten that! To be perfectly frank, it is a rather unpopular topic. Up on Capitol Hill the subjects are more or less associated in the collective memory, so to speak. who Which brings us back rather forciHir.denbin'tr. to the idea that if there is going exploded bly ship giant to to be earth, economy it is going to come rccently.

They admit that the same sort of discrimination would be important if a war can be imagined in which Mexico is one of the belligerents, but in which the United States is neutral. The exemption affecting the Great Lakes would also affect the Rio Grande river. Not Important But this, the objecting senators insist, is not important; first, because it is difficult to imagine a situation in which it could figure, and second, the width of the Rio Grande along most of its course is not really a problem anyhow. Defenders of the discrimination in favor of Great Lakes traffic point out that after all the object of the proposed law is to keep the United States out of entanglements not primarily to prevent war supplies being exported from the United States. The objection to permitting Amer ican ships to carry on the high seas supplies (other than arms, ammunition and implements of war which are specifically embargoed at the outbreak of the war anyhow) is that enemy submarines might torpedo them, or enemy warships capture them. Either would involve the United States in the same sort of difficulty with the belligerent figuring in the episode that involved it with Germany during the period of Amer ican neutrality in the World war. On the Great Lakes, they point out, there would be no hostile war vessels. The goods would be bound from United States ports to Canadian ports. Every one might know that they were bound ultimately for another destination perhaps to one of the belligerents but there would be no opportunity for any "incident to arise which might embroil the United States in whatever inter national conflict was going on at the time. On the whole, however, the "compromise" seems to have been a sweeping victory tor tne senators who fought and won, in their branch of congress, the fight for the cash and carry neutrality program.

In the eighteen months of its existence, during which nearly everyone believed that it was only temporary would be thrown out the window by the high court the board has decided no less than 135 cases. A study of these decisions, as well as the statements and interviews never given any and speeches prominence because of the conviction of editors as well as business men that it just wouldn't last gives a fair cross section of the men whose interpretation and administration of the law is now so important. Following the example of the courts, the board has adopted the policy of expressing no opinions interpretative of the act until the Darticular case that might be in question should be brought before it. For that reason J. Warren Madden, chairman, and the other mem-berEdwin S. Smith and Donald Wakefield Smith, are not in a posi- tion to answer many of the inquiries that have been pouring in since the constitutionality of the act under which the board is operating has s, been upheld. One question frequently asked is ing until bubbles appear. Sift the baking powder with the flour thoroughly, then add the anise seed. Add slowly to the above mixture and mix well.
