mfl Kfttt Washington, June 30. ? The 75th Congress broke all records for peace-time spending. In its two regular sessions and one short extra session it appropriated more than 21 billion dollars. Consider ably less than half of that amount will come out of tax revenues. The rest will have to be, or al ready has been, borrowed. Political observers with long J memories are recalling here the! famous remark of Thomas B. Reed, Speaker Df the House in the 1890's. In one two-year period | when the Congress had appropria ated a billion dollars, Tom Reed replied to a critic of such legisla tive extravagance: "The United i States is a billion-dollar country." | It has now become, by the same scale, twenty-billion-dollar coun try. The second session of the 75th Congress spent a third more mon ey than did the first session. In 1937 it appropriated $9,356,000, 000; in 1938 its appropriations amounted to $12,300,000,000. Many Major Enactments Of this huge total slightly morel than 5 billion dollars were for the I general recovery-and-relief pro- , gram of the Administration, one | and three-quarter billions for the I Administration's farm program, 1 almost two billions for national defense and more than ten bil lions for the regular departmental operations of the Government. The list of major enactments by the session just ended includes the Farm Bill, tax revision, wage standard legislation, naval expan sion, Federal highway aid, flood control, civil aeronautics control, housing, food and drug law revis ion, merchant marine reform, Re construction Finance Corporation {intendments to provide commer- j cial and industrial credits, and the relief and recovery bill. Bills not passed included exec utive reorganization, recommitted in the House after a bitter fight; anti-lynching. killed by a Senate' filibuster; railroad financial aid, jettisoned in the last-hour ad journment rush; ajjji the Walsh Healey government contract bill amendments, providing a "black list" of alleged violators of the National Labor Relations Act. which was killed by the House leadership in the adjournment rush. This latest session of Congress differed from most of its predeces sors in that comparatively few of its acts were the result of pressure from sources outside the govern ment. The most barefaced attempt at dictation to Congress by a "pres sure block" failed. That was the attempt of the C. I. O. leader. John L. Lewis, to "turn the heat" on members of Congress to com pel them to adopt a law blacklist ing corporations which do not ac cede to the rulings of the National Labor Relations Board. ITtfimrni m'gniii* liimi I n-^1 im In t'he closing days of the ses- ! sion Mr. Lewis obtained from Speaker Bankhead permission to I use the Speaker's office as a place in which to interview Members of \ Congress. That proceeding, and the bullying attitude which Mr. j Lewis assumed toward the mem bers who responded to his sum mons had precisely the opposite j effect from what' he intended. It ! created an antagonism toward the i C. I. O. and its leader which, in j the opinion of many Congressmen, will be difficult to eradicate. It is regarded as definite that the influence of that' major branch of the Labor Lobby has been de cidedly weaken. The A. F. L.. ra ther than the C.' I. O., can takej credit for the final push whicfi put over the wages-and-hours act; but the heaviest pressure for this, as for most' of the other acts of this Congress, came from the White House. Surveying the scene in the light of all that occurred, it is felt here that Mr. Roosevelt regained most of his lost prestige before t?he ses sion ended. If the November elec tions go in such a way that he can interpret them as a vote of renew ed confidence, there is little doubt that he will press again in t'he next Congress for his Government Reorganization program, and pos sibly for the reinstatement in the tax laws of the undistributed pro fits tax, which was stricken out over his protest. New York Political Outlook The outlook for the next Con gress is complicated by the sudden death of Senator Copeland of New York. Dr. Copeland, though a Democrat, was one of the most) vigorously outspoken anti-New Dealers. His passing makes neces sary the election of two new Sen ators from New York, Senator Wagner's term expiring at the end of this year. Mr. Wagner is as ardent a New Dealer as Dr. Cope land was an opponent of the Pres ident. The New Deal plan had been to rtfn Senator Wagner for Governor of New York and Governor Leh man for Senator. Nowv it is regar ded as probable that this plan will be abandoned, and that Senator Wagner, who has proved himself a strong vote-getter in the past will be induced to stand for re election, and "that the New Deal will back for the nomination in Senator Copeland's place either Solicitor-General Robert M. Jack son or Relief Administrator Har ry Hopkins. There are intimations that for mer Governor Alfred E. Smitih or Mayor F. H. La Guardia nxay take the field as -a- candidate for the senate, though Mr. LaGuardia's ambition is believed to be the Governor's mansion in Albany. At the present time file Repub lican Party is strong in New York state, with a clear majority in the lower house of the state Legisla ture, and 22 out of 51 Senators. In the other states where Demo cratic primaries are still to be held, the W. P. A. and the Presi dent have been put' on warniug by a powerful committee of Senators that any use of W. P. A. funds or any other direct pressure by the Administration to influence voters will be bitterly resented and may result in more Democratic Sena tors "going off the reservation".

Eighty f of the fine Juniors of the Metho dist Church were in attendance j and a most profiitahle Assembly I was held. This was followed I this week by a senior Assembly ! for the older young people of the Conference. About 325 were reg istered for this Conference and Dean Bradshaw, of Duke Univer sity was the general Superintend ent and Rev. J. G. Phillips, of Louisburg, was the Dean of this Assembly. This will be followed by a second Junior Assembly of about eighty members and this will close the 5th day of July. In all, nearly five hundred young people will come under the influ ence of the fine faculty of these assemblies. During the summer nineteen young men who have registered for college work for the coining year have been working at the College this summer for the pur pose of earning a goodly part of their college expenses for the coin ing year. These men are working on the farm, making repairs on the college buildings, and doing general work making preparations to have the buildings, the grounds and the farm in the best possible; shape when college opens in Sep tember. The prospects are for an over flow in the student body of the college. More paid room reser- j vations are now in than were ever in at thjs time in previous years, and President Earnhardt tells us t'hat It will almost put him to his wits end to provide dormitory space for the students who are ( registering every day and who will ' be here at the opening in Septem ber. The college farm was provided for in the will of .Miss Amy Steph ens late of Goldsboro. North Carolina. She left to Mie college a sufficient amount of money to the college to buy the Macon Place Containing nearly two hun d red*acres of land. The buildings! on this farm have been remodel- j ed modernized, they have i been provided with all modern conveniences, dairy, feed, and oth er barns and ouMiouses have been built, and. wit'hiu a year it is hop ed that this farm will be produc ing very largely the supplies for the kitchen and dining hall of the college. Already quite a portion of the needs of the culinary de partment of the College are being supplied by theeollege farm. The improvements on this farm were donated by Mr. C. B. Upchurch, Jr., of Raeford, N. C.. and' Clyde Burgess of the- Burgess Lumber Company, of Louisburg. By the j kindly help of these_Xwo tnefl and 1 through their generosity, Louis- 1 burg College expects to produce largely what she has had to buy in the years that have passed. | Kvory voter in (he County should go out and vote Saturday.

SPINAL CURVATURES Most of us, at some time or other, have seen unfortunate human beings whose bodies have been pitifully contorted, twisted and bent. Spinal Curvatures? Yes! But that is not all. ? Complications of varied organic and functional disturbances of the organs of the body add more distressingly to the pain-wracked body. HUNCH BACK? That is an advanced condition resulting from neglected spinal curvature. IT'S C A U 8 E ? Well, what causes a tree to become bent and knarled? Injuries ? obstacles in its path upward ? weakness from improper food and sunshine. And the same applies to the Human Spine! Improper nourishment ? Bad postures or positions ? Injuries ? Lack of proper exercise, etc. HOW-TO AVOID OR OVERCOME IT? | Such conditions may be avoided by proper care. The, care of the Spine and back be gins logically in childhood as that of the tree when it is a seedling. Every child should be examined periodically to know how the spinal column is de veloping. Nearly all of the defects of the spine are controllable if proper guidance is given by someone who really knows the spine and its proper care. You watch carefully the progress of the growth and development of your shrubbery and garden plants ? Then why is it not more important to give just as careful attention and care to your spine and body or that of your child? And most certainly more de serving and a greater responsibility. Doctors of the CHIROPRACTIC profession have already applied the principle of spinal correction to more than 35,000,000 people in the world, and the results gain ed in acute and chronic ailments, in pain and suffering, have been so pleasing to the degree that the slogan ? "The Back is The Measure of Health" ? expresses the message of Better Health and Healthier Spines from CHIROPRACTIC treatments. , , Consult your Doctor of CHIROPRACTIC.
