.THE WEEK-END'S REVERSES
The closing davs of last week saw two severe blows dealt
to President Roosevelt and new deal prestige. On Friday the
senate commerce committee voted to report unfavorably on
the nomination of Henry A. Wallace to be secretary of com
merce and on Saturday a federal judge in Chicago denied the
government s request for un injunction restraining Mont
gomery Ward officials from interfering with army operation

ing closely on the criticism of the plane priority given Elliott
Roosevelt's dog over soldiers who were on limited furloughs
and, on being bumped, stood to lose time at home these events
must have taken some of the savor from the tasted satisfaction
of the unprecedented fourth term inauguration.
Our history records but few instances of the rejection of
presidential nominations to cabinet posts. Calvin Coolidge
suffered one when Vice-president Dawes, napping at home,
lost the chance to break a tie, and there were earlier rejec
tions not now remembered. The report on Wallace, of course,
lias not yet been'presented to the senate but the name will come
from the committee under the handicap of an unfavorable
vote and it seems apparent that unless the loan agency ac
tivities have been divorced from the commerec oflice it, too,
will be rejected.
Now a president, it will be argued, should have the serv
ices of such cabinet advisers as he may want but Mr. Roose
velt himself has indicated that his nomination of Wallace for
the commerce position was based on the latter's desire for and
belief that he could do well in it rather than his own con
fidence that the best man was being named. The president,
indeed, was brutally frank in his letter to Jesse Jones stating
that this was a political pay-off. The senate committee, how
ever, had no political obligation to Henry Wallace. It did have
an obligation to the country no less than that of the presi
dent's, but forgotten by.him, to consider the qualifications of
the appointee and it has honorably performed its obligation.
Henry Wallace, it is obvious, wants to get into his hands
the financial power that goes with the RFC. Let it be remem
bered that the commerce department was set up without this
agency in association and that the agency came to it only
so that it could have the benefit of the Jones management
while he still continued as the head of the RFC. With Jones
out of commerce it is but proper that the RFC should be di
vorced and returned to its independent status.
When President Roosevelt remembers that he did not
want Henry Wallace as vice-president this time he should be
able to understand why the senate commerce committee does
not want him for secretary and head of the RFC.
Having long fancied himself more particularly as commander-in-chief
than as president Mr. Roosevelt may find the
Montgomery Ward decision more difficult to take than the
senate committee rebuff. Military processes are of more in
terest to him than the maintenance of civil rights witness
hia acts in the Hawaiian martial law affair and though he
would permit labor leaders such as John Lewis and Caesar
Petnllo to defy him a business man controlling few if any
votes was a tasty dish.
Chairman Davit) of the WLB says that agency will col
lapse unless the Montgomery Ward decision is reversed We
wonder .whether Mr. Davis has ever heard the Latin maxim
which translated runs "Let justice be done though the
heavens fall"? Offering no opinion on the wage or the union
questions involved in this case we say that since, as has been
repeatedly asserted, the orders of the WLB are advisory only
the decision of the Chicauo iudire
need the heavens full. Congress is at hand tn
situation. Let it give such duties as it will and can to the
president and let the commander-in-chief refrain from such
seizures of arbitrary power as are now denied by Judge
Bend's Yesterdays

CHICAGO THE YOUNG
GIANT
I
Jeff Martin had Been in Chi
cago exactly one week when he
received a written invitation,
through the mail, from Caroline
Henderson inviting him to 'come.
to a little party on bunday eve
ning. She wrote that after din
ner a number of young people,
friends living In the neighbor
hood, were coming in.
Caroline was the wife of
Charles Henderson, whom he had
not seen since the time they were
both young reporters on the Balti
more Sun many years before.
Jeff's meeting up with him again
in Chicago was pure coincidence.
While strolling about the streets
as a sightseer, he had passed the
Bully Bargain House and noticed
that mat establishment offered its
entire stock of men's clothing for
sale at reduced prices. Kemom-
berlng that he had brought with
him only a few shirts and pieces
of underwear, and needed more
right away, he went in. The
proprietor turned out to be his
old friend, Henderson.
When Jeff had made up' his
mind to accept Caroline's invita
tion, he sent a messenger boy all
the way out to the Henderson
home with a polite and stilted ac
ceptance written on hotel paper.
He himself was staying at the
"Listen, Henderson, when a fire
gets to going In a big way there's
no telling on God's earth what
it'll do," Pollard replied, speak
ing slowly, as if Weighing every
word.
Silently the three men on the
lawn watched the spreading glow
in the southern sky. The strains
of "A Girl In Every Port" a
comical song about a sailor and
his sweethearts came from the
house, mingled with much laugh
ter. "That fire's got bigger since
we've been standing here," Jeff
remarked. "It's further over to
the east now. D'you suppose it
has crossed the river?"
"God knows." This came from
Charles Henderson. "The wind
is from the southwest, blowing
straight in this direction." It was
indeed a heavy wind that had
whistled around the houses and
blown like a gale in the streets
all day.
"Well, gentlemen," Mr. Pollard
said, "I think I'd better take my
wife and daughter home. We've
had a very pleasant evening,
thanks to you and your charming
better half. No, no, don't bother
to come In with me. I'll say good
night right here."
"I think we'd better go in, any.
way," Henderson remarked.
"We'll have to tell the people in
there about the fire. It does look
serious." They were then walk-

played games, such as lotto, par
chosi and checkers; others went
in for riddles and tricks that one
plays wilh words. Jeff was sur
prised to find himself the un
beaten checker champion of the
party.
Mrs. Henderson had a supper
served at 9:;i0, though she did not
call it supper but a "collation."
It was really n substantial meal,
served In plates which one had
to hold carefully on his knee t
keep from spilling the contents on
tne noor.
After the collation the girls
gathered amund the organ and
sang the current ballads and such
old stand-bys as "Beulah Land,"
"Old Black Joe" and:
In the gloaming, oh my darling,
When the lights are dim and low,
And the quiet shadows, falling,
Softly come and softly go.
The young girls, 'with their
heads bent together over the or
gan, formed a beautiful picture;
and their gentle voices made one
think of life as a delightful emo
tion rather than as a harsh realitv.

Henderson asked them not to go
home so early. "The fire," she
said, "is so far away, and we can
read about it in the papr tomor
row morning." But everybody
was intent on going home. The
party had come to an end. It was
then 10:30 in the evening of
Oct. S, 1871.

LODGEPOLE AND JACKPINE
(Klamath Herald-News)
A reader who has always called
it jackpine asks us if lodgepole
pine is the same thing. It is in our
language. Here are Webster's def
initions: Lodgepole pine: A pine (pinus
murrayana) of the western
United States. It is a small or
medium sized tree with rather
hard wood.
Jackpine: A North American
pine (pinus divaricata) often
foiming forests in Canada. It is
a slender tree with two leaves in
each sheath, and cones having
spiny-tipped scales. The wood is
used for ties, etc. b. -The scrub
pine of the eastern United States,
c. The lodgepole pine.
Apparently, it's proper to call
any lodgepole a jackpine, but not
all jackpines are lodgepoles.
We are reminded of an incident
that occurred last summer when
we were riding through the for
ests with a military visitor who
was unaccustomed to western
trees and asked a lot about spe
cies. Some time after they had
been identified for him, he point
ed to a specimen and inquired:
"Is that a cabin-pole pine?"

Manner in which Senator Wal
ter F. George's post-war economic
policy and planning committee
will operate through standing
committees of the senate was
clearly shown when George's sub
committee on housing held its
two weeks' hearings. Senator Rob
ert A. Taft of Ohio is chairman of
the housing sub-commitee. Yet he
is flanked on this sub-committee
by three members from the sen
ate committee on banking and
currency whl6h would have to
pass on any new housing legisla
tion and three members from edu
cation and labor committee which
would be interested in social as
pects and employment on public
housing projects. Instead of try
ing to do the whole post-war job
itself, the George committee will
similarly divide up work on its
other tasks.
Application of United and
American airlines to reduce pas
senger fares may run head-on
against civil aeronautics board's ;
order to these two lines, Eastern
and Transcontinental-Western air-'
lines, to show cause why their air-1
mail rates on the "big four" j
should not be reduced from 60
cents to 32 cents a ton mile. Re- i
cent increase from six to eight
cents an ounce for domestic air-1
mail postage was ordered by post '
office department to take the gov-J
ernment out of the red on airmaH
operations. Airlines get no part
of this increased revenue. Airlines
now have more passengers than
they can haul with existing equip-
ment. CAB is not hostile to lower
passenger fares, but would prob-1
ably not want to see passenger
fares cut if that meant keeping
carriers' pay for hauling airmail
at present levels. CAB wants to
see use ox airmail Increased, air
mail rates cut. But CAB apparent
ly did not consult post office de
partment before issuing its show
cause order.
Civil aeronautics administra
tion and Aeronautical chamber of
commerce have made peace on the
issue of what part government
will play in experimental con
struction on post-war planes for
private fliers. Any builder is of
course free to do any research he
wants to. But on projects which
seem to have no immediate sales
value CAA will try to finance re
search, possibly in one company's
plant, then making results avail
able to all. One of the projects in
which CAA Administrator T. P.
Wright is particularly interested
is a castered or swivelled landing
gear wheel which would permit
planes to take off or land on a
runway at an angle to the direc
tion in which the nose of the plane
would be pointed into the wind.
Such a device would permit cross
wind landings and takeoffs on
landing strips, regardless of wind
direction, and eliminate the neces
sity for big fields with runways
going off in a number of direc
tions to meet varying wind conditions.
