Actual formation of recommenda tion starta thla week. At the front Prealdent Roosevelt haa placed treas ury policy, asking hla aldea for con ferencea on what the federal govern ment muat spend In the next flacal year, and how to, raise the money. Hub of Controversy. ' Whatever la decided, It will provide the hub of one of the many contro versies to reaouno In senate and houae. Involved la the whole public and civil works" and relief policy, liquor and Income taxation, budget balancing and the necessity for pro tecting national credit. The part to be taken by the mone tary dispute depends primarily on what happens between now and Jan uary 8, when congress meets. For daya the government gold program haa been ateadled, but with no ss- aurancea of stabilisation Impending The eapltol debetea appear llkeiy to be colored by presidential recom rnendatlone for permanent railroad consolidation leglelatlon, atook mar ket control, some possible alteration In but not general revision of the securities act, express federal con trol over the liquor Industry, rati. fleatlon of the St. Lawrence treaty and confirmation of William C.

Realizing that enactment of thla program hinges In great measure on how declelvely are offset the chal lenge to what already ha been done. Recovery agencies are heading up their 'jork toward the day when the leader may be summoned before con gressional committers. One lino of the strategy la to order things so re sults can be cited to Justify the ex traordinary enactment of the extra session.

Thla I attributed to report of business Improvement. Harmony Not Expected. There 1 no Illusion that harmony will dominate, however. Some of the strongest voice in aenat and houae, Democratic and Republican, ar be ing primed for opposition to Roose velt and hla policies. Both th na tional and recovery administration and the agricultural adjustment will com In for their share. . Still entrenched behind weighty majorities, no concern la expressed In th Roosevelt quarter a It looks to the aame leaderehlp that maintained last spring: Vice-President damtr and Robinson In the senate, and Speaker Rlney of Illinois, and Byrna of Tenne In th house.

Nevertheless, portent of renewed Republican activity -are having their effect, along with that of th Demo cratic branch of thought that holds with Alfred B.

There being a lack of cohesion among the oppolton, there 1 no ap parent basis now on which to expect unified general attack. But tacks there will be and plenty, until that day In late spring or early sum mer when leglslatora begin reporting back to their constituencies, In general, It appears, the oppon ents will base their position on de nials that the program la working and contentions that varloua phases are wrong In principle, contrary to American tradition.

Present-day motorists place little confidence In this child's version of weather control. But though they cannot regu.ate the ' weather, they realina that they can determine the degree of comfort and safety of their rainy day driving by the correct use of modern automobile accessories. This is the belief of C. J. Prltchett, local minager of the Western Auto Supply company. "Safety Irom skidding is the first thing motorists seek when vet weather comes." he said "They are learning more than ever the value of sturdy, deep cut, center traction treaded tfrea that cling to wet pave ment. Weatern Giant Super Whip cord tires are particularly suited for the responsibility that rainy weathar driving impose. 'The Super Whipcord's rugged, sci entifically designed tread provides heavy blocks of rubber which seem to 'bite into1 the roadway, giving greater traction under all driving conditions. And trie distinctive sp appearance of the aide wall re -enforce ment. built to give added protection against rut and curb scrapea, har monises beautifully with the csr's lines. "The windshield wiper, too, plays a big part in motoring safety," Mr. Prltchett declared. "Worn wiper blades leave a streaked, poorly clean' ed surface, which greatly impairs the visibility. Slow and Jerky action of a vacuum operated cleaner Is often due to a leaky air tubing." The Western Auto manager advises complete check on the electrle equipment of the car. "When Igni tion cables become cracked, and spark plugs worn, gasoline consumption Is greatly increased' because of wasted spark. Since ignition cables and spark plug should be changed at regular intervals, our expert recom mend that they be changed Just be fore the rainy season," he added. Record College Enrollment.'' SEATTLE.
