Washington, Feb. 1?. ? If these
Seekly report* on the state of the
ktion seem somewhat one-Bided,
the answer Is that there Is only
one side to the picture presented
here. Everything bears the
Roosevelt brand, and that goes for
Congress as well as tor all th6
Jang list of alphabetical commis
sions, bureaus and "administra
tions," beginning with AAA and
running down to PWA.
Thus tar there has developed
Only one disagreement, and that
a comparatively slight one, be
tween the President and the Con
gress. Congress wanted to keep
the CWA going and the President
wanted to "taper off" this Govern
ment-supported employment of
millions of men and women in
That are vaguely termed "Cirii
Vorks."
Voice of the Voters
The word that comes to Sena
tors and Members from the folks
back home Is that while business
men generally don't think much
of CWA and many farmers are
complaining that they can't hire I
help at reasonable wages because I
they (the farmers) want men to
do real work and not merely look
at a shovel for 30 cents an hour,
the voters are for It.
But while Congressmen do not
want to vote against anything
which might cost them votes next
election, they are still less eager |
to take an attitude which would
certainly cost them their seats.
And they are convinced, practic
ally every man Jack of them, Re
publicans and Democrats alike,
that to oppose the President's
policies in any respect would do
just that. Let any on* of them,
even a Republican from, a rock
ribbed Republican district, or
what used to be regarded as such,
open his mouth in criticism of the
Roosevelt program, or vote
against a Presidential measure,
and the malls and telegraph wires
make his life a burden for the
next week. I
They Wait on F. R.
Men with long experience,
among them some of the foremost
leaders In Congress, who usually
can tell In advance what Is going
to happen next, are utterly at sea.
All they can say, in answer to
questions as to the legislative pro
gram, is, "We haven't heard yet
what the President wants." Thus, j
a short time ago. It was being pre
dicted by no less a personage
than Speaker Ralney that there
would be no legislation to regu
late stock and commodity ex
changes, at t^is session. Since
then Mr. Rainey has talked with
the President. Now he thinks
there will be some such bill. Con
gress is not drawing it up, how
ever; it is waiting for the Ad
ministration officials to draft it
and send it to the Hill. I
All attempts to organize op
position to the Administration and
the Democratic Party have proved
futile so far. Former Secretary
of the Treasury Ogden P. Mills
is the only important voice that
has been raised in protest. Mr.
Mill's speech was expected, by old
line Republican party workers,
to be a sort of railying-cry which
would bring an instantaneous re
sponse from the four corners of
the Nation, and crystallite Repub
lican senlmtent into something
like effective Opposition. It had
mo such effect.
The very men who were relied
apon to back un> Mr. Mills and
encourage the effort to reorgan
ise the Republican party not only
failed to come to the rescue but
some of them thought it was ill
advised for Mr. Mtlls to make
such suggestions at this time.
Eyes on Pennsylvania
Nothing could illustrate better
how far the fortunes of the Re
publican party have sunk in Na
tional affairs than the belief,
Which is growing -here among the
most cold-blooded political ob
servers, that Pennsylvania will
elect a Democratic Senator next
November. Pennaylvanla haa al
ways given a majority of any
where from a million votes up
ward to the Republican party.
It sounds incredible, but it really
looks, as if those, days were gone
forever. *
There is beginning to be talk
among those who, while admitting
Mr. Roosevelt's complete suprem
acy, are not In accord with ths
policy of making the individual
subservient to the government, of
a completely new party organisa
tion, to be built not alone on the
ruins of the Republican * party,
though some of the most pliable
of that old timber would be used,
but upon the ancient principle of
Individual rights and, especially,
(he rights of the taxpayer.
Those who are active In pro
noting the new party idea point
?ut that the great "middle class"
of small business men, small prop
erty owners, independent and ou
dintressed farmers, professional
lien and the like, is being ground
beneath the nether millstone un
4er the New Deal. The benellu
?re all directed toward the down
and outers On the one side, and
the big financial and Industrial
Interests on the other, to hear
some of these folk talk. But, they
my, it Is the man In between who
Is paying and whose children
and grandchildren most pay.
New Party and Meantime
Mow far this movement for a
Tennessee Home of Lake to Be
CLINCH BIVEB, Tenn: . Above U pictured a beautiful Tenneeaeo
valley which will aoon "be no more." It la the Clinch River vallej, the
?ite where the Norria Dam ia to be built. The dam will aubmcrge the
valley under 200 -feet of water, creating a great lake. Thia ia a part of
the Tenneaaee valley development, aponaored by the government. |.
'Centrist" party will get is any
body'* guess. Many pooh-pooh
It, many think It has a chance,
a few are enthusiastic. It will
take organisation and It will take
money. Money Is hard to get for
anything, and organising talent is
rare.
Meantime, Washington is great
ly encouraged by the real signs
of increasing prosperity which
have followed the fixing of the
price of gold at $35 an ounce,
making the International dollar
worth 69.04 per cent of the old
gold dollar.
This practical stabilization has
removed many of the fears of
capital, which is beginning to*
come out of hiding and look for
Investment. Gold Is flowing back
to America from Europe. There
is a sounder, deeper feeling among
business men that we are really
on the road to recovery.
It Is Mr. Roosevelt's hope that
by the first of May business and
industry will really have taken
up most of the slack of unem
ployment. It Is also his hope that
Congress will -pack up and go
home about that time.
Frank In Organ Recital
Mr. Lawrence Stroup Frank,
head of the piano and organ de
partment of Loulsburg College,
gave an organ recital at Duke
University Chapel, Sunday after
noon, Jabuary 28. Those who
were fortunate enough to hear
Mr. Prank's program were de
lighted and .hope that they will
have the - pleasure and privilege
of hearing him again soon.
Mr. Frank's musicianship is
very sound a? ?ould readily be
seen from his irst number, the
Bach Fugue In D Major. He plfirs
Bach with understanding and
appreciation and announced, with
this selection, his mastery of the
organ. He approached Bach with
the simplicity nad reverence due
the master, set forth the subject
and followed up its development
in the clearest and most satisfac
tory manner. The difficult pedal
passages were executed with
faultless legato and phrasing; the
voices carried through their in
tricate pattern with Just the right
emphasis and balance. Only a
real musician can play a Bach or
gan fugue and color and shade
the voices as did this young mu
sician.
The Vierne Minuet was a
happy contrast to the Bach; It
was played with ease and grace.
The beautiful melodies were treat
ed with the delicacy and stately
grace which the courtly old dance
requires and served to show the
lighter and more delicate regist
ers of the splendid organ.
The Wllllan Number proved a
genuine treat to the audience and
to most of the listeners a sur
prise, since it is a work less fre
quently heard. Its wide scope.
Its skillful handling of themes
and their development were a
great pleasure to music, lovers.
Mr. Frank handled the composi
tion with complete understand
ing, as one who loves and appre
ciates a splendid piece of work.
Those interested in the possibili
ties of the Duke organ had an
opportunity to hear it in Its wid
est range in thla number. There
was not a dull moment In its en
tire performance and the full or
gan was handled with wondarfnl
and Impressive effect.
Mr. Frank revealed himself a
splendid musician of soundest
traditions of training and per
formance. He has not only the
understanding of great organ lit
erature but he has ths technic
that permits Its adequate and
appreciative execution. The Duke
audience was Indebted to Mr.
Frank for a most beautiful pro
gram.
Mr. Frank holds the degree'
of A. B. and B.Mus. from Oberlin
College and the degree of Master
of Music from the Eastman School
of Music of the University of
floChester. He also has the dls
Inctlon of being one of ths three
Fellows of the American Guild
of Organists In North Carolina.
Loulsburg College Is fortunate In
numbering among her faculty so
thorough and attractive ? mual-l
clan. /
