WASHINGTON SNAPSHOTS To those who wonder just exactly what are some of the causes of the present feeling of uncertainty, Joseph P. Kennedy, retiring chairman of the maritime commission, supplies an answer in this annual report: "Despite the urgent need for new construction (in the shipping industry), private operators hesitate in the face of the present labor situation. Cnaile labor conditions, signalized by demands of the crew, 'sit-down' and 'quietie' strikes, and shipshod performance of duties are characteristic of the industry. A Washington wisecracker, after reading that, wondered if that is why Kennedy has been "promoted from the chairmanship of the maritime commission to the ambassadorship to Great Britain. How times do change! The recent court verdict convicting oil companies of agreeing to establish prices stirred up old memories in the minds of a flock of Washington newspaper correspondents. It was less than five years ago that at General Hugh Johnson's order representatives of the oil stopped the erratic flight of the Blue Eagle. Hugh Johnson will be the "Great Thundering Rooster." One Washington basber got a laugh out of the fact that somebody else discovered the advertising value of picketing. Newspaper accounts said the Pennsylvania Museum of Art at Philadelphia was being pickedet to entice visitors into the museum. The Washington barber tried that out a year ago. When his shop was first picketed because of union troubles, people who never before had noticed the shop walked in for service. So when the strike was settled, the barber paid a friend for weeks to parade up and down with a sign saying: "This shop unfair to organized labor." Business finally got so good that he fired the picket. Eaves-dropping used to be looked down upon, if our memory is correct. But when Louis Glavis, one-time chief investigator for Secretary Ickes, was on the grill before a senate committee for tapping telephone wires, he objected to the phrase "wire-tapping." He said, "eave's - dropping" would come nearer an accurate description of what he did. Thus spying upon employer becomes an approved practice when undertaken officially. Folks who think the mysteries of Washington are simple should profit from the experience of Pasquale Carfagno, a member of the CCC camp at Annapolis, Maryland. With some camp mates, Pasquale came to Washington on a sight-seeing trip. He got separated from his party at the capitol. Hours later, foot-sore and weary, he showed up at a police station to ask his way back to Annapolis. Asked what he thought of Washington, Pasquale replied he couldn't say because he had spent most of his time underground. He got lost in the labyrinth of subways under the capitol and the senate and house office buildings. 253 SENSATIONAL BIG PRIZES IN "DOUBLE-BARGAIN" CONTEST! is why Kennedy has been "promoted from the chairmanship of the maritime commission to the ambassadorship to Great Britain.
