By DREW PEARSON and ROBERT S. ALLEN Gives Decision Merry-Go-Rou- WASHINGTON The big thing learned from the President's fishing trip is that there is only one New Dealer. A lot of people were dimly conscious of this before, but didn't like to admit it. Now there is no escaping the fact. The Roosevelt administration is Roosevelt. There ii no administration. And if there is one major fault with which the President ran be justly charged, it in that he juts built up no supporting personnel which ran function efficiently in his absence.

ONE MAN MACHINE To a considerable degree this is the relation of Roosevelt to the n New Deal. It is a machine. Consider for a moment the cabinet It has only two men in whom Roosevelt places any real confidence Wallace and Ickes. Cordell Hull, the Secretary of State, takes ail major policies to the White House for decision. More than any other president since Wilson, Roosevelt is his own Secretary of State. The same is true of the Navy Department. The Roosevelts Franklin and Cousin Harry, the assistant secretary run the Navy. , The VVar Department up un-trecently played no great . part in the picture. Now that it has been called upon for the Air major performance Mails it has fallen down woeto had Roosevelt has fully, take it in hand. The Post Office Department is on major largely routine, but policy Jim Farley always trots over to the White House. Miss Perkins' Labor Department has become a statistical agency. Labor disputes, for which it was originally created, are handled by Board Senator Wagners Labor under the direct supervision of the White House. Secretary Roper's Commerce Department could fade out of the picture, and except for the massive building and the fish Aqilar-iuwhich tourists enjoy, it would never be missed. the Young Henry Morgenthau, Secretaiy of the Treasury, is domating a good job, but even on ters of relative detail, takes his cues from the White House. Homer Cummings and his Justice Department are more concerned with the interpretation of law than with administration and are therefore not quite in the same Category. Even Ickes and Wallace, upon whom the President depends more than his other eabineteers, must take AAA codes and Public Works projects to the White House for specific approval. From all of which, one of two deductions is inescapable. Either Roosevelt has picked poor help or else he does not trust them enough to give them real one-ma- ft il ir 1 f movement, by Rep. George Folkes, D., Michigan. Folkes declared: We must face the issue of the fight between plutocracy and the people and not try to laugh it away. One or the other must rule. Every vested interest, every exploiter, every reactionary in America, is lining up behind this school teacher who may be an educated fanatic or a deliberate schemer. It is the rallying point for organized reaction in a smashing drive to block the trend toward social justice in the United States.

Ask Railroad Liberty Loan Bondholders To Its Tracks fQj1 ,a meeting of a Central railroad engineer with the .Logan city commission to go over the condition of the tracks on South Main street vas 3net from the office of City Attorney Leon Fonnesbeck today. The commission took up a discussion of the deplorable condition of the tracks at the meeting Tueswas day night and decision reached to ask the railroad company if something could not be done to improve the situation. Chief of Police Carl Poultcr, at the meeting Tuesday night, asked the licensing of bicycles in order to check on thefts. He said the condition is fast becoming critical, bicycle thefts now averaging 10 a of biweek. Through licensing o able cycles, he hopes to be make a more complete cheek on the vehicles. No new ordinance one will be necessary, he said, already being on the books.

The order to reduce the rates is temporary pending further hearing and final decision in case No. 1479 dealing with the telephone rates in various parts of the stale of Utah. The rates as ordered by the state utilities commission for the one and two party lines in Logan places these rates on a level with the rates that have been charged for years and are now charged for similar service in Provo where the telephone company has a larger number of telephone subscribers than it has in Logan. The decision follows a fight of Logan telephone users for Bevel al years in an effort to have its telephone rates reduced to a to the rates level comparable charged ia Provo. After Logan city through the telephone committee of the Logan Chamber of Commerce had filed a petition with the state utilities commission asking that a reduction be made in the telephone rates, that commission broadened the complaint and issued orders to the telephone company to show cause why the rates throughout the state should not be reduced. Hearing relative to the Logan part of the case was begun in Logan several months ago but alter two sessions was continued in Salt Lake City. Expert engineers were employed by the state utilities commission from the coast to make a complete evaluation of the physical property of the telephone company. This survey is now toeing commade. Until it has been pleted further hearing on the case is held in abeyance. Prior to postponing the hearing until the completion of this necessary survey, State Senator Herbert B. Maw, who represented Logan in the rate ease, made the motion that the state utilities commission make a reduction in the Logan rates immediately, notthe fact that the withstanding final decision in the state wide rate case could not be made until after the completion of the hear ing. To that motion strenuous objections were made by attorneys for the telephone company. The commission took the motinn under advisement. Its action today in ordering the rates reduced immediately follows consideration of Senator Maw's motion and hi i brief relating to the same.
