WASHINGTON SNAPSHOTS The opposing camps on Capitol Hill are in battle formation again. In the house the wage-hour bill is the issue. In the senate the new spending spree plan is the center of the conflict. But those are only the major engagements. On other fronts the war still goes on. In brief, there is not a single legislative proposal in the Capital City this week that is not an issue for a fight between those seeking to create some degree of public confidence and those who stick to the disproven theory that continued regulation and deficit spending is the only depression antidote. In the category of "minor" issues are such bills as the Wagner bill in the senate and the Healey bill in the house to force persons borrowing from the government or selling to the government to comply with the National Labor Relations act. Supporting the congressional coalition in opposing these bills is the U.S. navy. The navy department says it is already hampered in its dealings with private firms by nine regulatory federal statutes. The comptroller general's office, too, doesn't want either bill passed because it would add to administrative expenses in Washington and increase costs of materials that must be purchased by the government—(and by the public, too). In the wage-hour and spending program fights, political strategy—pressure, patronage and promises—has already become evident as a Incidentally, as the advocate of more spending launched their campaign, the treasury department's regular report showed the government had spent $6,036,446.849 during the nine and a half months of the current fiscal year—just $1,087,644.281 more than was taken in during the same period. The report also announced that the I.O.U.'s in the public purse now total $37,563,359,237, or nearly three billion more than at the same time last year. The special senate committee studying unemployment and relief made a startling discovery during its recent investigation, and a great many persons are looking in the direction of WPA headquarters with arched brows. The committee, among many other things, reports that it found 63 per cent of the WPA relief workers in five cities occupying other positions and drawing Federal relief money at the same time! Remember a few months back when several C.I.O. officials had some ungentlemanly things to say about the Daughters of the American Revolution? Well, the Daughters have had their inning, and although the C.I.O. was not named, Capitol spectators didn't even bother to ask who was meant by the D.A.R. blast at "subversive forces" at work in America. Mrs. Vinton Earl Sisson, aggressive chairman of the D.A.R.'s committee for national defense through patriotic education, told her fellow-women of the D.A.R. congress in Washington that these "subversive influences have pen- In the wage-hour and spending program fights, political strategy—pressure, patronage and promises—has already become evident as a tool to pry opponents out of the coalition camp. However, observers believe the opponents have been materially strengthened by their victories in the supreme court and reorganization bill fights and by the wide support given them by the public (by telegrams and letters) in both frays. Mrs. Vinton Earl Sisson, aggressive chairman of the D.A.R.'s committee for national defense through patriotic education, told her fellow-women of the D.A.R. congress in Washington that these "subversive influences have penetrated even into the agencies of the government" and then went on to say: "It is cause for rejoicing that American labor on the whole will have nothing of radical dictatorship. American labor has its own ideas of the American way. The American system is all right." Pagent To Be Repeated May 7 and 8 - 14 and 15 A veteran in the role of Alessandro and a newcomer as Ramona.

Quarantine Bureau Fights Fruit Moth The oriental fruit moth presents a problem which the state bureau of plant quarantine hopes to solve by keeping it beyond California's borders, A. C. Fleury, chief of the service, reports. It has a habit, Fleury said, which prevents its poisoning by methods used on other pests and so far no suitable control has been developed.
