WASHINGTON, Not. 1. The re
removal of the fleet to the Atlantic
m-aa merely to help the loneaome
tailors' aweethearta In eaatern porta.
No one can doubt the official an
nouncement to that effect. The tara
have been In the Pacific for three
. yeara. That la too long for any aallor
to be away from any aweetheart.
But It doea not explain why the
announcement was made six months
ahead of time and almost on the eve
of the arrival of M. Lltvinotf. There
la a better explanation for that.
Bark-ground.
Mr. Roosevelt's Invitation to the
Soviets a few weeka ago cauaed con
siderable unwarranted disturbance In
Japan. Touchy Japanese patriots al
ways become excited at the alightest
provocation. Their newspaper were
then full of Russo-Japanese war talk.
The position of our fleet In the Pa
cific had for yeara been a disturb
fatnp Anm .TartanesA extrem-
lata seized upon the Idea that the
consultation witn kiivinou, comins
tin, vnHMit.pH further
warning to Japan. They Intended to
watch nia visit nere very cioy.
No one will aay It. and the admin
istration will deny it. but every ln
alder, and aome outaldejs, know that
la the situation Mr. Roosevelt had
j- in effort. Mr. Roosevelt Is
cleverly telling Japan that ehe has
no need to worry eltner aooui me
T.u.wlnnff.
Tlie aane and liberal element of the
Japanese press will now be able to
keep the patriots from running up a
high fever while ijitvinoii i
Fectm.
There appeara to have been another
minor factor in the deciaion that waa
NOT mentioned.
The President haa an Idea back In
bis mind that he would like to visit
the pacific coast and Hawaii next
ummer. Also that he would like to
review the fleet. He would get aa
much kick out of watching the pa
rading men-of-war .aa a younga'.er
gets out of a circus parade.
But It would certainly lead to in
ternational misunderstanding In Ja
pan If he went to the coast or Ha
waii for the review.
Under the new arrangement, he
may be able to aee the fleet In the
Atlantic- and make the trip to the
coast without creating unfortunate
appearances.
Salesmanship.
A tvplcal example of the Roosevelt
strategy In diplomacy la his handling
of the recent Hawaiian delegation at
the White House,
a The Hawallans went there to de
mand that he drop the idea of having
a non-resident governor. They wanted
to kill the Rankin bill now pending
in the eenate. It would enable Mr.
Roosevelt to appoint a non-resident.
The President did not say anything
about that Idea, but astounded the
delegation by suggesting he might go
to Hawaii next summer.
It would be a great thing for the
Islands, attracting tourlat trade and
business.
The delegation left highly pleased
without the thing It came for.
White Meat.
The man with the worst Job in
Washington is Interior Secretary
Ickes. For a month he has been up
to his neck In governors, congress
men, contractors and politicians. A"
are trying to grab a little
oft hla three billion dollar pub.lc
works turkey.
Hla office dally resembles a bargain
counter aalea rush. It Is almost im
possible for an outsider to get In to
ee him. , 14 .
A senator returned to the capital
recently shaking hla heed In amaze
ment, saying: . ,
"I talked to Ickes for half n hour
about a project in my home town,
but he did not seem to hear me.
"I gueaa I I have to see Roosevelt
about it, because Ickes la too busy.
N Russia.
The state department has been
somewhat lukewarm on the Inside
bout RuAalsn recognition.
Assistants Bullitt snd Payer are the
only enthusiastic recognition! Jta in
the department. Secretary Hull m 1
lv favora it. Under-Secretary Phillips
haa advocated .strong precautions in
proceeding with It. European Dlvl
eton Ch'.aj Kelley has been dead set
aeslnst it.
TV.at will make no difference, b
cme these current negotiations are
purely Mr. Roosevelt's own Idea.

The organizations participating in

Instead, they are eliminating dupli
cation of effort and combining several
drives for welfare money In one well-
organized campaign. In my opinion
the Community Chest offera a thor
oughly business-like method of gath

Public hearing on the 1934 budget,
as prepared by the budget committee,
O. O. Alenderfer of thU city, chair
man, will be held In the auditorium
of the court house Wednesday, start
ing at 10 a. m.
The budget will be considered Item
by item and discussed, freely and
fully, and explained as to whyforea.
Any misunderstanding that may have
arisen, will be clarified.
Increase In salaries of some of the
courthouse deputies, promises to be
the chief controversial point. Oppo
nent of the pay Increase hold that
the times do not Justify It, and that
there are plenty willing to work for
the present scale.
The budget committee holds that
the Increase will make no appreciable
difference In the tax levy, that It will
enable the county to retain experi
enced workers and that while It Is
true many are willing to ccept the
position, at the lower scale, It would
naturally take time for them to be
come acquainted with the routine
and efficiency would suffer, for a
time at least.
The budget for the most part, pre
sent no controversial points, as the
committee strove to avoid them, and
at the same time retain efficiency and
economy, In keeping with sound busi
ness methods. The committee felt
that the experiment In highly broad
cast personal efficiency and economy

Roosevelt into everything that
is pulled on him. SRturday was
refusal day with him, (Ho must
linvo collected a bad Htnmp),
To the fanners' resolution
from their convention telling
him what to do he just said
"yeah." England's debt com
mission goes homo with noth
ing but "yeah." Wall Street
says tho dollar miiRt be stabil
ized he just said "yeah."
Tliey even told him the big bad
wolf, congress, was coming in
eight weeks, and ho just said
"yeah."
It looks like tho"ycahs"had
it. It takes ft lot or "yeahs" to
keep you from being a "yes"
