Only our man, Jyhii A. AfeCar!, has ever he J the post of coiTiprrolier-gcofira His tcrtn <spued or June 30. I93tl and President Rooseveit has not '.ami:,! a successor. The eff'Xt of the authority of the comptroller- , genera.' and the general accounting office has been to prevent money ; appropriated for ere purpose front beir.g used for any otrer purpose. The President's proposal is to substitute sr. an urnr-general who : stead of checking expenditures be fore they Are made. will audit ail j payments after they have Peer made, under the control of the secretary of the treasury. This is the point upon which eh*, opponents of the whole plan of reorganization wui make their strongest fight. How the President '.via go in exerting pressure on congress tor his reorganization plait. and ;r. renewing' his attempt to reorganize the supreme court. remains to let seen There was a very cocky" feeling among senators and representatives when congress adjourned, a feeling that thev as; stood out against the president ar.J wo::, in the court Sight. Many felt that this was a demonstration of the independence of the legislative department of the federal system, and that it would be followed by further de:nonst rations that the exeecuiive could no longer dictate to them. That feeling has been strengthened, rather than otherwise, by the recent charges against Senator Hugo Back of Alabama recentlv named to the su prerne court bench. Tne allegation, after congress had adjourned and Justice Black had taken the oath of his nee.' office as a full-fledged member of the supreme court, that he was a member of the Ku Klux Klar., came as a surprise and shock both to the President and to the senate. A similar charge was made when the confirmation wa3 pending, but was denied in his behalf by senatorial friends, who blocked aii efforts to have a committee of investigation look into tne accusation. At that time, and since, many senators who voted for his confirmation have said they would not have done so had they suspected that the senator was a member of the Klan. Many others, who would not have objected to his appointment on that ground, are perturbed because of the alleged "lack of frankness on Mr. Black's part in not disclosing the facts, and the apparent failure of the President to inform himself fully about Mr. Black's antecedents before naming bim to the irremovable office of associate justice cf the supreme court.

The national state . .1 will be snhUvliic-j ill to runty au.i ir. livuluki farm goals. Soil-building goals \vi : include the ertijJS anil practices needed to restore Oh!J maintain the *;<: resources of the land. Separate u >ais wii! be prescribed for cotton, tobacco, peanuts and po tatties if a majority of the potato growers vote to have this -.top ini .utied. There v.-iii also be g<sa!s for general depleting crops. Provisions for commercia! vegetables eommer'cis! orchards and nancrop pasture land will be about the ,-arce as in 1937. The program will be administered through state, county and community committees composed of fa: mens, with supervision of an advisory nature y.ver. by AAA ar.c extension service workers. At tlte beginning of the eren year the maximum amount ci payment a grower v.i-I be abie to ear:-. will fee calculated. Attainment oz tie soildepicting and tie sofi-buiWir.gi goals tor bis farm -.viil tier, be set as conditions Xor the full payment of that amount. In determining the soil-it dieting goal for a farm, the committeemen win consider the acreage of crops usually grown, acreage of food an-.? cr-: crops needed for home tire, g taxi i roil management, tillable acre-age or. the iana. type of soii. topography ; production facilities and crop rots. tions. The soil-build ;ng goals will be set up according to the neeeis of the farm for good soil management : through terracing, use of fertilizer. ; legume crops, and other conservator, practices. The committeemen and farmers would discuss ar.d agree upon the practices needed. A farmer would not be required to carry out practOoc u;~ .? Small farms of the subsistence j type would have goals for soil-depleting crops established at the farm's usual acreage of such crop; which are primarily needed for food and feed on the farm. Payments for performance will be divided among the producers or. a farm on the same general basis thai proceeds of the crops are divided. While this is the set-up for the 1938 program, Floyd pointed out. il is still dependent upon appropriation; from congress and possible future , legislation. |who recognize that an ambitious poli iticiar. is hardly to be criticized i; he seeks and accepts klar. support deplore the failure to bring all th< facts into the open. The situation does r.ot tend te strengthen the President's influer.c; with ffce senate, and it may en I courage further resistance to hi; requests for more power, when congress meets again.

DON'T DRIVE Recently a well-known corporation ? -Segratn Distilleries Corporation? ran an advertisement in newspapers and magazines with a total circulation of 4,499.294, ar.d the text was as follows: "We who make whiskey say: ' Drinking and Driving do not mix," and continuing: 'This statement may seem to ! work directly against our relf-in! terest. But actually it does not. It ; . is much to our self-interest to see : that the privilege of drinking is not J abused. It is to our interest to see . i that iiquor is consumed as it should luiuutucu. wuuu&ey is a mxurj and should be treated as such. When taken moderately?with a true appreciation of its taste, bouquet and character, fine whiskey brings a sense of friendliness and fellowship L in social gatherings. But neither whiskey nor any other alcoholic li! quor has any place at the wheel of . an automobile. Drinking and driving do not mix. "The conviction must be shared by - everyone who reads the newspapers f | and by every thinking person who , ! drives a car. : j '"Therefore, we invite you?in the ] interest of public safety?to join us i ! in the crusade of safer, saner driv 1 hig. - : "If you expect to be at the wheel ; :Of a motor car. we say to you: Think ; before you drink.
