C. past' generation Ja coming back, to the delight of the newspaper pacagraphers and his aasoclates Id the Senate. He is Senator James Hamilton Lewis of lUlnois, usual- ly referred to as "Jim Ham.'* Mr. Lewis has many claims to distinction.-' Ha is. for example, the only man who ever served In the United SUtes Congress from two different states. As'a young man, with a fiery red beard, he went from his native Virginia to tho then pioneer state of Wash ington in the 1890’s leaped Into politics and was twice elected Congreesman-at-Large from that .state. He served in the Spanish War, both in Cuba and tha Philip- pires. Then be moved to Chicago, where be combined politics and tb0 practice of law, and by 1912 he had made himself such an im portant figure in the political af fairs of Illinois that he was elect ed United States Senator. Beet and Wor„t Dress«rs For ten years ‘‘Jim Ham” was missing from Washington, but in 1930 he was again elected Sena tor from Illinois and this month be was re-elected. Senator Lewis is not only the only owner of a beard in the Senate, but is eas ily the best dressed member of either House of Congress. There is rejoicing in Washing ton, also, over the return to Con gress of the only other full set of whiskers, those belonging to Rep. George H. Tlnkham of the Tenth Massachusetts District. Mr. Tinkham is a picturesque figure, although an entirely different type from Senator Lewis. He pays •SO little attention to his personal appearance that he is frequently referred to as the worst-dressed man in Congress. Unlike Senator Lewis, who loses no opportunity to impress his personality upon the elector ate, Representative Tinkham is reputed to have never made a campaign for election. A new figure In the next Con gress whose aRvent is looked for ward to with considerable Inter est and curiosity is Senator Henry Cabot Lodge. Jr., of Massachus etts. Mr. Lodge has two definite claims to distinction. He is the grandson and namesake of Theo dore Roosevelt’s closest friend and supporter, who was Senator AraorrMassachusetts for 30 years. Also, he defeated Gov. Curley of Massachusetts in the Senatorial election. Senator Lodge is just barely old enough to be eligible for the Senate, in which no one under 30 may sit, by the terms of the Con stitution. Young Mr. Lodge was "Sr kTHB JOURNAL-PATRIOT, NOBTH-:^ )RO.

CaUnet Change* Hint^ ^ Tnmlng from Capitol Hill to the other end ofPennsylvania AvOTue, where the executive de partments of the govemmMt-cen ter gossip about personalltlea focuses largely on possible Cabi net changes. It seems to be in the cards that the movement to es tablish a new Cabinet Depart ment—that of Public Welfare, will take form before long. This new department would be charged with duties which now devolve variously upon the De partments of Labor, Interior, Agriculture and Treasury. 11 would take in such activities as those of the children’s bureau, the administration of the moth er’s pensions, and of many of the other phases of the Social Secur ity Act. The new department may also tak© over th© job of the Public Health Service which is a bureau of the ’Treasury. It would In clude the bureau of education, which la now in the Interior De partment, and it would probably get the bureaus of the Depart ment of Agriculture which are concerned with home economics and other phases of rural life not strictly agricultural. Some Other Gneeses The latest gossip about Donald Rich'berg is that ho is to be ap pointed either Attorney General or a member of the Supreme Court. Justice Stone’s Illness is regarded as more serious than public announcements indicate,' also a possible vacancy or two on the Supreme Bench may occur. The best bet in Washington as to Secretary of War is that Gov. Paul V. McNutt, of Indiana, past Commander of the American Le gion, will be the successor of Secretary Woodring. Some Washington gossips are perfectly certain that Mayor La- Guardia of New York is to be given a Cabinet post. There is talk of him as the possible Sec retary of Labor. The belief also grows here that Secretary Ickes of the Interior Department will be appointed by the President to th© 16-year post of Controller General, succeeding John McCarl.

No final action was taken on ap propriations to be recommended to the General Assembly in Jan uary. Meet Next ThtuSday The budget makers are sche duled to reconvene here Thurs day to take methods of raising revenues for the next biennium. Sitting with members of the state school commission, the bud get group this afternoon heard Clyde A. Erwin, superintendent of public instruction, make an ur gent plea for more funds. Erwin’s request was based on a salary schedule similar to that In effect in 1929-30. "The time has come when we have to give more serious consid eration to the Increase in teach ers’ salaries or we will be faced with the possibility of a serious shortage in good teachers,’’ the state superintendent asserted. Lloyd B. Griffin, secretary of the school commission, said the proposed 20 per cent pay increase, pine lesser additional exp^OM, would renulre eu allotment ' of 326,076,988 for 1937-88 fand! 326,564,147 for 1938-89. 8 WILKES girls " ATW.C.U.N.»C. ■ :dZl .y Greenalwro, Not, 11.—BUfltt of ^1,790 students enrolled at the Womans College of the Unlwr- slty'of North Catolina for .^the fall semeeter are from i^^WUkSii county.
