They're permanent fixtures. 'Mac' Rules The Office. Next comes the office, where Secretary Marvin Mclntyre bosses a staff which usually consists of five people. First there's Henry Kannee, Mclntyre's secretary, who himself has a secretary in Miss Roberta Barrows. Since the President can often three stenographers keep busy, Miss Barrows often supplements Miss Marguerite LeHand, confidential secretary to the President and a good friend of his wife. Throughout the trip the President seldom budges from his ancient "Pioneer" parlor car, a special job containing bedrooms, offices, pantry, a dining room and an observation room fitted with comfortable furniture. It is here Mr. Roosevelt does most of his work en route, dictating, reading reports, checking up on local history or just looking at the scenery with an occasional wave of the hand at a farmer. By JAMES HAMMOND (Released by Western Newspaper Union.) g This summer a train is pulling out of Washing-ito- n bound for the west coast. Along the rails it travels, at every hamlet, crowds stand five deep to shout hail and farewell. Some places it stops and the band plays while a gentleman steps to the observation platform and waves his as only Franklin 'Delano Roosevelt can. The Chief's traveling again, this time-froWashington to San Francisco and up to Alaska on the Houston, for a sailing Roosevelt's vacation would not be complete without ocean and plain-lookin- favor-seeke- hat-in-ha- salt air. or Nothing unusual about this trip, though Calvin Coolidge Herbert Hoover might have White so. thought Today's into such a simple formula of effi- House is mobile, so ciency that every member of the used to being packed in an staff knows his post the instant a is announced. overnight bag and whisked trip across the country, that FDR need merely press the button and away we go. His years in the harness have put to ehame William Howard Taft's record for 115,000 miles; by the time President Roosevelt returns from Alaska he'll have established a White House travel total of some 160,000 miles nor is the end in eight. Close as a Telephone Pole. In six years of the nation's nerve center has evolved euch a letter perfect system of communication that efficiency has suffered not one whit; the White House on wheels is no farther from Washington than the nearest telephone pole along the railroad track, to which a line may be plugged in one minute. The President's signature and Great Seal is no farther away than the nearest airline, where transcontinental planes will swoop down at any time to pick up the presidential pouch and rush it to Washington. Why travel? There's something to be said for critics who point out that the President can't get a very accurate picture of a nation which dresses up to meet him. Yet who can deny that the presidency carries something akin to a moral obligation; the man in the White House 6hould go on parade for his public every now and then. One other reason, less legitimate, is that the presidential visit may turn an election tide overnight. When in doubt, it's good politics for the Big Boss to visit a doubtful bailiwick and shake hands on the observation platform with its local party leader. Trips Not Expensive. Presidential junkets are not a great expense to the taxpayer, contrary to popular belief. The Chief Executive can easily stay within his travel and entertainment allowance because the railroads (whose legislation is being tabled this year to get congress out of Washington in time for the President's vacation) absorb the loss. There are usually about 20 in the official White House party. Each of these including the President is s assessed one fair plus Pullman, and that's all except for small extra charges for special switchings. Newspaper correspondwho ents, and political hangers-on- , ride from one end of the state to the other in hope of seeing "The s Chief," must also pay regular fare. Ordinarily a private citizen would pay $75 a day for exclusive use of a car such as the President's old "Pioneer." On a train this would mean $750, and in addition the railroads usually charge a minimum of 100 fares for the special train. But th White House is exempted from such regulations, which amounts to a neat saving for John Public. Old Stuff for the Staff. In his private car the President is just as comfortable, yet works just as hard as if he were seated behind his desk in Washington. As described by Eugene Warner in a recent issue of Collier's magazine, the presidential junket has evolved gad-abouti- $25,000-a-ye- E. M. Smithers, sometimes White House telegrapher and at other times chief of transportation, picks routes, arranges the train and prepares an intricate mimeographed schedule which keeps the special running not on the minute but on the second throughout its journey from coast to coast. This facilitates contact between Washington and the train, permitting the White House to ascertain exactly where the President can be reached by phone at any given moment. It's Positively Breath-Takin- g But Here's the Story of pO orders and confining their studies to odors arising in the mouth, the scientists found six factors can and do contribute to mouth unwholesome-ness- . Northwestern university scientists have completed a series of breath-takin- g experiments. If you have pO (even your best friends won't call it halitosis) the Northwestern doctors will freeze it into a solid, determine its odor intensity, let you know how often you see your dentist and even tell you which of six mouth conditions is the offender. In short they'll take your breath away. The work is a joint effort of Dr. Leonard S. Fosdick, head of the chemistry department of Northwest-em'- s dental school, and Drs. Glen CHICAGO. . They are: tooth decay, gingivitis (inflammation of the gums), pyorrhea and "time after meals." Age enters the picture because there is usually an attendant retrogression of body processes, including gum recession with a tendency toward pyorrhea. In the sex factor, it was Age, discovered mouth unwholesomeness is greater in women than in men as individuals grow older, but women are guilty of less mouth odor intensity than men. Dental decay, gingivitis and pyorrhea each carry an infection. Mouth odors increase in proportion to time after meals for the apparent reason that stagnation may occur in a mouth not cleansed by excursion of food. Regular mouth hygiene, it was found, will reduce odor concentration in the mouth up to 50 per cent. In cases of gingivitis, pyorrhea and tooth decay general relief depends upon elimination of these diseases. Mouth hygiene, even though it amounts only to rinsing the mouth with water, reduces the "time after meals" factor, while persons whose pO is enhanced by age have to be more regular with their hygienic practices. ar first-clas- first-clas- 10-c- ar rs STEP No. 1 This pretty young patient's brrath sample is frozen at 210 degrees Centigrade beloiv zero. ' E. Sulzer and Robert H. Brening, also members of the dental faculty. "From a theoretical point of view, breath can be contaminated from three primary sources," they report. "Odors can come from mouth, lungs and nasal passages. Putrefaction processes in the mouth like stagnant saliva, decaying teeth, pyorrhea and degenerated cells on the tongue may be responsible." They find, too, that digestive disturbances may contaminate the breath. Drs. Fosdick, Sulzer and Brening found a method of segregating the mouth odors by a special apparatus which freezes them in liquid nitrogen for concentration. Then, with an "osmoscope," they can determine the odor intensity. Selecting a group of patients with no putrefactive lung or nose dis- - ith breath frozen.

No. 2 W n - J j -- rain-stic- aimed at revivbusiness laid beXL fore the house vvavs and means committee by Secretary of secretary the Treasury Henry Morgenthau Morgenthau Jr. It will be noted that Mr. Morgenthau suggested repeal of the last vestige of the special tax on undistributed corporation earnings. It is known that the President is privately strongly against this revision. It is further known that Morgenthau would not think of saying anything publicly against his chief's will. The answer to this apparent contradiction is that the President has decided to give business the opportunity it has demanded to revise the tax law, or rather permit its revision, just as business spokesmen have been urging. Then, if business does not revive spectacularly, if it does not absorb sion ing millions of unemployed now on . - J k, gov- ernment rolls of one sort or another, the President can say to the country: "We gave them everything they said they needed even things we knew they ought not to have, in order to test this thing thoroughly. Now we know that business CANNOT or WILL NOT function in such a way as to take care of this situation. The government, perforce, must take care of these people. We cannot let them starve or freeze. And we will not support them by the demoralizing dole." New Deal Starts All Over Again With Critics Stumped So the New Deal starts all over again, with its critics deprived of the answer they have been making for at least four years that business would revive if the government would just let it alone knocked into a cocked hat. If business should revive, the New Dealers figure that "reform" would merely be delayed until after the election. Actually they would like to see this, not because they do not believe their reforms are good, but because the present business situation has them considerably worried. They are just a little disturbed by the growing conclusion in the country, as evidenced first in the purges, then in the 1938 election, and more recently by polls, that the New Deal has not been so hot, in that it has added billions to the national debt while the number of unemployed apparently is as great as it was at the depth of the depression. Good times next year would make a Democratic victory, both as to the presidency and as to congress much more likely. In fact plenty of shrewd observers think the Democrats will have to fumble the ball rather badly to lose the next election if business is good and obviously growl. better. Parties rarely lose elections in good times. It is economic distress, almost invariably, which beats the party in power, if one except the rare campaign in which some issue moves the people more deeply than their Sometimes there is little rhyme or reason in this, very but it is generally true. Moreover the Republicans are not in good shape, despite their astute leadership on Capitol Hill. They are hopelessly divided on issues. Even in congress this is apparent. Now Frank Murphy Looms As New Deal White Hope Attorney General Frank Murphy is looming more and more as the white hope of the New Deal for the presidential nomination next year if Franklin D. Roosevelt docs not "choose" to run. Murphy is the third candidate to be trotted out by the hundred percenters. The first was Robert H. Jackson, now solicitor general.

Roosevelt Has Pork on His Side for the Moment This sentiment against spending and the New Deal economic policies is not strong enough, yet, apparently, to insure revision of government spending. But it would be tomorrow if the pork element could be eliminated. Thus Roosevelt has pork on his side, for the moment but the bigger the pork spending the more eager will the congressmen be to swat the next Roosevelt spending proposal which is not sufficiently greased. The defeat by the senate of the Florida ship canal is a perfect example of this. The Florida senators did their utmost to include the Florida canal in a logrolling combination, and as a matter of fact had more success than appeared on the final roll call. But Sen. Arthur Vandenberg did such a good publicity job in branding this project that even Pat Harrison, whose state of Mississippi is interested in the canal, had to go to Sen. Claude Pepper and beg to be excused!
