WORK DONE—
WASHINGTON—The 75th congress, which was to have helped balance the nation's budget, went home last week after a 154-day session in which it appropriated $12,321,635,000. This was more than any session of congress has ever appropriated in time of peace, and two thumping billions more than congress voted even in 1938, when it handed out the two-billion dollar soldiers' bonus.
It brought the 75th congress' spending total to $21,656,174,000 for all three sessions. It shot the net deficit for fiscal 1938 up to $1,250,000,000, and forecast a deficit at least $3,722,000,000 for fiscal 1939. It meant that the national debt, which stood at $37,379,410,474 on June 1, had a good chance of passing $40,000,-000,000 by this time next year, an increase of $20,000,000,000 since Franklin Roosevelt took office. Spending was by all odds the biggest job performed by the 75th congress. Its other work done:
Wages and Hours—To give the president his pet piece of legislation, congress last week passed a compromise bill fixing minimum wages at 25c an hour, maximum hours at 44 a week, providing for a 40c-40-hour standard after seven years, with flexible provisions making it tolerable to the industrial South which had kept the president from getting it before.
Anti-Monopoly—To satisfy the president's trust-busting urge, congress finally appropriated $500,000 to a committee to investigate monopoly, left $400,000 of the appropriation under direct presidential control.
Crop Control—The second Agricultural adjustment act, on the president's calendar for the special session but not passed until February, gave the secretary of agriculture full power to control crop marketing by voluntary cooperation if possible, by compulsion if necessary.
Tax Revision—Not for Franklin Roosevelt but for business, congress drastically revised the unpopular levies on capital gains and undistributed corporate profits.
Farm Loan Interest—Only major veil of the session was placed by Franklin Roosevelt on a bill to extend for two years the "emergency" rate of 3½% on Federal Land bank loans to farmers. Last week both houses overrode the president.
Railmen's Insurance—Although failing to fashion a crutch for the staggering railroads, congress last week passed a bill taking railway employees out of the unemployment insurance system of the states and putting them under a federal system handled by the Railroad Retirement board. Benefits: $1.75 to $3 per day for up to 80 days of idleness per year. Source of revenue: a 3% payroll tax-on wages up to $300 per month.
Permanent Postmasters—Nearest political trick of the session was the senate's confirmation in the last nine days of the session of 2,072 new democratic postmasters of the first, second and third classes, coupled with its passage of a bill placing these offices under the civil service, with life tenures like fourth class postmasters and postal employees.
Phosphates for fertilizer worried the president. Congress voted him last week a $10,000 survey of U.S. phosphate resources to be made by a congressional committee.
Dirigible. The president wanted the navy to try again with a $3,000,000 dirigible successor to the Shenandoah, Akron and Macon, all of which came to disaster in 1925, 1933, 1935, respectively. The house said "No." The senate voted $500,000 to start work and last week got it through in the final Deficiency bill.
"Flood Control." Just when TVA admitted that power production was 52% of its reason for building federal dams, the administration last week brought up its flood control bill in the Senate with a provision empowering the government to take title to any and all lands involved in any and all dams, reservoirs or other flood

Civil Air Authority. All civil
aeronautics, including airmail
services, were put under a Civil Air authority composed of five members and an administrator.
The authority was told to report whether or not (and how) the government should help create a national system of airports.
New Judges. During its first session, the 75th congress killed Franklin Roosevelt's plan to enlarge the supreme court; but in design which the fine arts commission had not approved. Senator Glass blasted the way for a $500,000 appropriation to start building the Pope design whether the commission likes it or not.
Naval Officers. To staff the expanding navy, congress authorized a personnel increase of 1,043 officers by 1942, at a payroll increase of $3,000,000.
Natural Gas. Congress decided that there was a public interest affected by interstate transmission and sale of natural gas, so declared such gas subject to the Federal Power commission.
SEC. In a section of the 1938 Revenue act, amendments to the bankruptcy law and a measure framed by Senator Francis T. Maloney, congress notably extended the powers of SEC: To give utility holding companies special tax treatment on gains or losses resulting from property transfers ordered by SEC; to issue advisory reports on bankruptties under famed Section 77B (where the failure is less than $3,000,000, the court may ask SEC for a report; where more than $3,000,-000 it must ask); to regulate over-the-counter security sales.
Wheat Acreage. Next year's wheat acreage was to have been limited by law to 45,000,000 acres. Congress upped that figure to 55,000,000 despite this year's bumper crop prospects from 80,-000,000 acres.
Civil Air Authority. All civil aeronautics, including airmail services, were put under a Civil Air authority composed of five members and an administrator. The authority was told to report whether or not (and how) the government should help create a national system of airports.
New Judges. During its first session, the 75th congress killed Franklin Roosevelt's plan to enlarge the supreme court; but in Railroads. Because labor insisted that the railroad industry gave up its demand for a 15% wage cut if a bill for railroad relief was allowed to pass congress, the session closed without anything being done for the railroads. Result: Unless the Interstate Commerce commission closes its eyes to the facts, and certifies to the RFC that the hard-pressed roads can repay loans made to them, it is likely that within a few months most U.S. railroads will be bankrupt.
Reorganization. Alert representatives sensed that the president's plan for reorganizing the executive branch of the government was one of his few unpopular proposals, shelved it, went home without attempting to do anything about it.
Regional Planning. The creation of seven "little TVA's" throughout the land is the dream of Senator Norris of Nebraska, who sired big TVA. The president put this program on his must list for the special session last fall, let it be forgotten when the ruckus within TVA broke out. Last bill on the subject submitted was "National Planning Act of 1938," which proposed to curb floods, improve navigation, conserve water, soil, forests, etc., did not mention power.
FRANKLIN ROOSEVELT'S BALANCE SHEET—
NEW YORK — Revealed this week are the full results of an extraordinary survey on the popularity of Franklin D. Roosevelt, conducted by Fortune magazine. Using the same scientific sampling of the electorate by which it was able to predict the results of the 1938 election with an error of less than 1%, Fortune prepared a balance sheet of Franklin Roosevelt's popularity.

New Judges. During its first session, the 75th congress killed Franklin Roosevelt's plan to enlarge the supreme court; but in its third session, it did create the 20 new minor federal judgeships he had requested.
Housing. Congress extended in time and broadened in scope federal mortgage insurance; upped USHA's loan funds to $800,000,-000.
RFC. Congress reimbursed RFC for moneys advanced for relief and empowered it to make loans to businesses and municipalities to aid recovery.
Merchant Marine. Congress extended the maritime commission's power to fix rates, and to insure ship mortgages up to $200,000,000. It created a Maritime Labor board with mediation powers.
WORK UNDONE—
WASHINGTON—In an election year, no congress continues bucking a president who wants to spend big money. In May, when Senator Claude Pepper of Florida was nominated on a straight pro-Roosevelt ticket, congress hastily set about giving Franklin Roosevelt what he wanted. Result was that the session closed with an unusually brief score of work undone. Its chief omissions:

SPIES SEIZED—
NEW YORK, Guenther Gustave Rumrich, an American army deserter of Austrian parentage, was arrested in February in a clumsy attempt to steal passport blanks, promptly implicated several German-Americans in attempts to steal army aircraft designs and military secrets. G-men and U.S. Attorney Lamar Hardy went spy-hunting forthwith, and by last week they were able to hand a federal grand jury a large chart showing the operations of the spy ring. Five days later, the grand jury returned indictments in the most serious charges of espionage ever made by the U.S. against a friendly power.
Said Attorney Hardy: "The directing heads of this ring reside in Germany and are connected on U.S. army planes to many; Guenther Rumrich, an army private named Erich Herd; redheaded Johanna Hoffman; a hairdresser on the General Europa and messenger ring, charged with transmitting their employers the secret used by army planes in communicating with their stations.
Like Germany, the U.S. does punish espionage by death peacetime. Stiffest sentence spies faced on any count wears imprisonment.

Anaheim To Face Whittier Friday
Anaheim muffed a chance to gain a full game on the league-leading Huntington Beach team Tuesday evening when the Valencias dropped a 6 to 2 verdict to Irvine while the Oilers were being shut out, 5 to 0, by San Bernardino. It was the Ponies' second win of the season over Joe Rodgers' beach gang. The Valencias dropped to third place as the result of their loss to the Beanpickers.
Manager Joe Cornelius' outfit split even in the last two games, trouncing Santa Ana, 13 to 1, Friday night before bowing to Irvine. In other games Tuesday night Santa Ana turned back Orange, 5 to 1, and Whittier edged out Brea, 6 to 5. Orange and Irvine are now tied for fifth place, one game ahead of Brea. Whittier is only a game behind Brea.
Anaheim faces two tough games during the next week, meeting Whittier here tomorrow night and journeying to Colton Tuesday to tangle with San Bernardino. Whittier has been playing winning ball of late having won four out of five games and should give the Valencias plenty of argument. The Ponies naturally will be tough.
Absence of Bob Hosack and Emmett Seacord from the lineup Tuesday night hurt Anaheim's chances. Hosack had not recovered sufficiently from injuries suffered at Santa Ana to be able to perform, and Seacord failed to put in an appearance. Bob will be ready for Whittier tomorrow night.
Tuesday's games marked the opening of the third round of play with every club in the league given a chance to land in the Shaughnessy playoffs. Today, only six games separate San Bernardino in second place and Whittier in eighth, with 13 games remaining to be played. League standings: Huntington Beach 12 3 .800
San Bernardino 10 5 .667
ANAHEIM 9 6 .600
Santa Ana 3 7 .533
Orange 6 9 .400
