\l<U i||W ^ WAJHINGTC* Washington EeM 1930 Issue Crystallizing Washington, June 10. ? What ever the outcome of the efforts of Congress and the Administra tion to salvage what is left of the*1 New Deal, in the light of the Su preme Court's decisions, one thiug seems clear to most of the political observers here. That is that the issue upon which the presidential campaign of 1936 will be fought out has been sharply and clearly defined. The issue will be whether the United States Government is to be further, centralized in Washing ton, or whether~!he existing sys tem of 48 independent states is to be continued and strengthened. The Supreme Court made it clear that under the Constitution i as it stands there can be no such centralization of power as Mr. Roosevelt and his advisors, and his supporters in CongresH, at tempted to exercise. And while the Administration is trying to toiake. up its mind whether the' people of the United States are ready to amend the Constitution, L the boys on Capitol Hill are do-i ing more real hard work than at; any time since the present Con gress met in January. They have 1 a real job in hand. Not only are they trying to work i out a substitute for the National j Industrial Recovery Act which will , meet the Constitutional objections j pointed out by the Supreme Court, f but they are reconsidering the j amendments to the Agricultural , Administration Act, and looking ( over again the new Banking Bill, ] the Wagner Labor Relations Bill, , the Social Security Bill, the Guffey Coal Regulation Bill and the amendments of the Tennessee Val ley Authority Act, to see whether ?those can be re-shaped to get around the Court's ruling, or whether some or all of them will have to be thrown in the discard. Hard Hummer Ahead It is not only pretty tough on the Senators and Representatives to have to do so much work over again which they had pretty near ly finished, but the hot season in Washington is decidedly uncom fortable, and it now looks as if the boys would not be able to get awa. before August at the earliest. Literally, there has never been such a state of confusion in Wash ington within the memory of anj one who is now active in public affair*. On the one hand is the firm belief of the dominant ma jority in Congress, and of the Ad ministration, that centralized con trol Qf business and industry i. absolutely essential to the salva tion of the economic life of the nation. On the other hand there is profound uncertainty as to whether this point of view is held by enough voters to back up any efforts that may be made to make that belief effective. (wine mnnuii ua An extremely interesting an alysis of tbe rotes in the Con gressional elections last Fall is giving a good many Congressmen something to worry about. There were 32,804,100 ballots cast at that election. It only 1.2 per cent of those votes had been cast on the other side, in the right dis tricts, a Republican majority in stead of a Democratic majority would have been elected. There were , one hundred and eleven closely contested districts, and a shift of one vote out of every 30 in each of those districts would have made the present Congress Republican instead of Democra tic. The boys from those 111 dis tricts, which might have gone the other way. are wondering now i how far their voters will folklv. . them tn any scheme to revive f?RA or to change the Constitution of i the United States. They have al ready heard from home that, in the opinion of great masses of voters, the NRA was already .ts dead as Prohibition ever was, even before the Supreme Court deliver ed the final knockouj.-blow. What Is worrying thein Is how far it will be safe f?r their own political futures Jxr%o along in any kind of effort to revive the codes. Searching for Control -J Among the interesting sugges tions that hare been revived as a result of the Supreme Ortrt decl- ' ?ion is the old idea of a federal .incorporation law, which would require all businesses engaged in .-"Inter-state commerce to take out I Jtxteral charters. This, it ,jg be lieved, would glre the federal gov ernment an effective and constittt^ \ tional means ot control of' such i enterprises. Under the federal tax- , log power,' it is pointed out, an- j other means of control might be ( operative. i Those are Just a few of the nu- i merotis Ideas which are being dls- I cusaed, none of which ha* crystal- i lined. In the meantime, the "pre*- ? sure blocs" ? chiefly those M or- 1 ganlzed labor, organized farmers and organised veterans ? are de manding that something be done right away in tbefr Interest*. Some of the statia Ileal sharks on Capitol Hill have it figured out that the total ot the "pressure blocs" represents about 17 per cent of ttw'Voterrf of the United State*. The other 83 per cent hare little influence on legislation, be cause they are unorganlx*d. But "In Plain Figures" UUIUAW . . .

She taped on the sixes . ? ? and won over 100 -eon? testaats. hey are beginning to be taken a ittle more seriously than has been lie case heretofore. More Coalition Talk Getting back to politics, which Washington always gets back to, :he suggestion of a coalition party :o oppose Mr. Roosevelt next 'year 8 being taken with increasing seriousness. How many Democrats Lhere are who are ready to split )ff from their party because they io not like his leadership nobody knows, but there are a good many n Congress and undoubtedly nany more outside of Congress, me hears the name of Lewis W. )ouglas, former Director of the budget, spoken with great respect .vhenever the talk turns on coali ion party lines. There is also a ;ood deal of talk about Justice )wen J. Roberts of the Supreme 3ourt as good Republican presi lential timber. All gossip of this jort, however, while interesting, neans nothing in the light of the omplete chaos into which every hing in Washington has t>ee?. hrown by the Supreme Court V uling. Motor Touring By C. W. Wood National Service Director Chevrolet Motor Company Motor touring in the vacation eriod should be a pleasure trii rom beginning to end. It is all he more reniarkabble, therefore hat the average motorist glvas ittle consideration to obtaining he maximum pleasure by select ng the most interesting route foi ach day's run. "What's the shortest route tc ?" is the average tourist's uery as he starts from his hote! ?ach morning. Naturally, the shortest route >etween two cities is also the most congested with traffic, especially srith commercial vehicles and )use8; also, it is the most Jbuilt ip, and therefore traverses more ow-speed zones and has more en forced halts. The shortest route, n fact, ,is not necessarily ;the iuickest way between two points. The alternative routes may bt onger in distance, but often are horter in time; however, even if Hey require more time, they re >ay the motorist by their pleasan er motoring. Not only do they xvoid the dense traffic and the nforced halts of the main routes, >ut in many cases they make the ?xtra time well worth while be ause Ihey are more interesting n scenery, and less trying to Irive. Unfortunately, the kind of road map supplied for use in the Unit ed States falls short of helping he tourist in his search for tht jcenic and picturesque routes European road maps make i>. pecial point of showing th^ tour st how to avoid the ordjjMtfy nain road in favor of oth&r routes hat will reward Mm with su * irior scenery imd^fnte resting hi oric landmarks or natural wou lers.

Crossing the Atlantic in record breaking time, the Normandle arrived In New York this week with more than 2,000 passengers aboard. The top photo shows the ship itself ? the largest floating object In the world: the picture on the left was taken In France, Juat before sailing; It shows hundreds of barrels of marine oil being taken aboard to lubricate the ship's 1(0,000 horsepower motors? enough to propel ten pverage ships; on the ? right Is shown the prow of the ship In drydock. battlefields, caverns, and other at- i tractions to tourists. ?< With no such maps as these to< guide them. Ar^wican touripr [< must rely on advice collected en < .oute. 'me lmoi iiicuion ouieaus o jl automobile clubs can be relied on to give the tourist tips on routesji from point to point. The motorist, t it each over-night stop, will do' well to call on the club bureau for advice on alternative routes: to his next objective; oftentimes.' t by asking for the most interesting route, instead of for the shortest, j I he will be directed over highways' that will add immeasurably to his! pleasure. Planning the tour so that each1 lay's run will bring the motor-, sts to a pleasant or interesting 1 iver-night stopping place is an- 1 other point frequently neglected1 by vacationists. Because many a 1 large city can be by-passed en ?oute, at a great saving of time. >ver-night halts in smaller cities ire advantageous. Many small lities imw have hotels that are luite as comfortable for a short lalt as the larger hotels in the big cities. Thope who make a practice of staying in the smaller owns urge as advantages the ab sence of parking difficulties, the >ase of finding a garage, the low ?r cost, and the great saving in :ime in getting away from the hotel in the morniing. and in finding the route out of town.
