PAGE TWO The Week in Washington v_ A RESUME OF GOVKRNMJESN5SBNTAI. HAPPE-WiiS IN THE NATIONAL CAITT.V1. Wash ingion, D. C.- -Nobody is taikiug about anything but politics, at the moment here in Washington With the Congressional elections out of the way. the talk is mainly about preparations tor the Presidential election of 1930. Naturally, the predominant interest is in the ways whereby M. 1 texts eve It wilt maintain his preside and that of his party but there are stili a few Republicans left, tad the real puze.le is how they ate gouig to make themselves heard and what they will find to make a party issue of between now and two years from now. The first, nroblein which the Presi dent \v ill have to solve, looking ahead i to J936. is how he can pacify the war I veterans without back-tracking on his previous declarations against the immediate payment of the bonus. The 5 Administration had thought that J question was nicely and permanent- a ly shelved, until the American Lc- I; gion in its Miami convention took the n bit in it-; teeth and voted by ai; overwhelming majority to demand the bo- l< nufl paymcy right now. whether or ^ no. P Experts on Bonus Plan f There isn't a particle of doubt in tl the minds of anyone in Washington 15 that the new Congress will vote just u the way the Legion wants it to. The c; veteran vote is too important back home to be overlooked. But with the President in the state of mind in which lie is today, he would veto a ^ bill for immediate bonus payment. ^ Whether it could be passed over his sv veto, which takes a two-thirds vote h' in both houses, is another question. ?4 The House would surely override the veto; the Senate is more doubtful. a But Mr. Roosevelt does not want ir pic utttwa so smurpiy ii^> mui. Ho has had, for some time, expert:- 14 working on a scheme whereby the 11 bonus burden would be passed on to e one or a group of the big insurance s companies, under Government guarantee, of course. Precisely that may c not be the thing ulitmately decided * upon, but the best guess possible here r is that there will be an Administm- ~ tidtt bill submitted to the next Congress which win not involve taking a j huge chunk of cash out of the Treas ury over r.ight. Sinclair and Long Nobody can consider politics from the Democratic point, of view, having 1936 in mind, without thinking of two names whose mention in Washington provokes expression of regret that they have to be considered. Those , arc Huey Ding and Upton Sinclair. Sinclair, iong a maverick, now has the party brand or: him, and the party as a whole is going to be held responsible, by the unthinking, lor hi3 ; utterances from now on. And there is . no way to muzzle Upton Sinclair; he is bound to talk. As for H'JtV Done, whn hp? hp#?n . characterized as "shrevsd, smart, slick , and ruthless,'' the present outlook La that he will go to the Democratic Convention of 1936 with a big block of delegates pledged to himself for .President, and while he will not get the nomination, he will have a lot to ; say about the platform, the party organization and?perhaps -even get ; himself nominated for Vice-President, j The G.

Since bosinninc of the fiscal vear ew public works allotments, have een about $87,000,000, giving eratoyment to something like 000,000 ersons, while expenditures for emcrreucy or direct relief have beer. close o $457,000,000. For a long time the idmin titration has realized that a arge problem was abandonment of a lirect dole. Efforts are now under ray to substitute for it work relief f one character or another. $i (0.000.000 a Month The total relief bill has been rung .ing about $140,000,000 a moiith, nth the government pajdng such a irge share that Administrator Kop;ins has repeated bis warning to tales that they would have to meet heir end of the costs, or Federal ontributions would be- cut off. Some tates have paid practically nothing; thers have been contributing 50 and 0 per cent.. The old slogan of "let Jncle Sarri do it,' is going to end, r Federal officials can find the way. Aboift iT,000,000 people are receivag direct relief, liio winter is execlcd to increase this by one or two nilhon. To change ail this to a work tatus. restoring the sense of responibilrty, is locked upon as a gigantic ask, but. whether it works or not no ?nc believes that starvation or sr.fenng would be permitted. In truth, dr. Moose volt has promised that such hall not be. Under the new policy, : r.vever, where there is a job in light, and the person on relief refuses o take il. he goes off the relief rolls. People Rvpeel More Spending The President has not had the ur.ount of support from candidates or office in the approaching elecions, as one might expect. There was ; time when the political orator preached governmental economy, rhat issue is seldom heard now; nore. is it stressed how much the government has spent, and how much 71 Ore is going to be spent. The prcsmrc of the politicians for office has dueated a large section of the peoile to expect more spending and more ibcrality on the part of the govemnent. Mr. Roosevelt launched a feature n his program ridiculed at the outlet, but now receiving popular approval, and that is the Civilian Conservation Corps, destined to he a pernanent reservoir for unemployed Enrollments in this corps from time to .ime take 350,000 youths from the vagrant walks of life, giving .them rjtdoor employment, compensation hat they may divide with their families, and furnishes a change in viewCONDITION OF I nwJNr. w ? t jlx i vj 1vv jl"v the Commissioner of Banks, at the th Ray of October, 1034.
