AWs I PauJ Malloo By PAUL MALL ON (Copyright, 1934, by Paul Mallon). WASHINGTON, Dec 1ft. The Vlcis sltudes of politics never could be bet ter Illustrated than by the Inside itory of what happened In the ipeakershlp con test. The milk man m Omaha may not care a gill of ) 1 a b b e r who la ipeaker of the house, but It Is a big Job In Wash, lngton. It bas the hlstorlo o a c k g r ound of Mich men aa Un cle Joe Cannon, Long worth and Garner rather than that of the few frail charactera who i occasionally Inherited It. Further more, the speaker's wife ranka third at the White House dinner table, which la always an Important Wash ington consideration. Essentially, however, the Job is what the man makes It. He can be either boss of the four winds or their lackeys. Mr. Byrna, the Tennessee patrician, rated the Job when Mr. Ratney, the Central Illinois patrician, died. Mr. Byrna had climbed to this right ot succession through long and patient party service up to the rank of floor leader. Furthermore, he was popular with the boys. There never would have been any serious argument about it, had not a bright young man, Sam Rayburn, distinguished himseir in handling new deal legislation during the past two years. Mr. Rayburn heard him self mentioned by some of President Roosevelt's closest advisers as a man, who should be the next new deal speaker. There was no question that he was a fair-haired lad around the White House. On the basis of circum stantial evidence that the Whit House wanted him, he got into the fight several months ago. He withdrew suddenly, without any public explanation, last Wed nesday, and Immediately hopped a train for a secluded destination. PORTLAND. Ore., Dec. 15. (AP) Detective Captain Jack Keegan to night announced that bits of glaas found in the clothing of Joseph Os- bourne, special patrolman, were simi lar to glass In the kitchen pane at the house where Simon Mish, 70, was beaten to death and robbed. Shortly after the disclosure the constant grilling of Osbourne, which had been in progress more than aa hours, was suddenly halted. He is held for the district attorney. Keegan announced that Osbourne, weary from the grilling, showed signs of a breakdown when questioning turned to his family. Osbourne will be permitted to rest until 10 a.m.. Keegan said. This Is what happened: Mr. Byrna and Mr. Rayburn closely canvassed the Democratic aide of the house. Mr. Byrns got upwards of one hun dred votes pledged. Mr. Rayburn's ' friends soon , found he could not win unless the big Farley-Guf fey Tammany controlled delegations from New York, Pennsylvania and else where came through for him. A high official who looked very much like Commerce Secretary Roper hopped a train for Texas about four weeks ago and secretly talked to Mr. Garner, the vice-president. Perhaps, as a result of that conversation or otherwise, Mr. Garner returned to Cashlngton long before he needed to, and was given t the Job of keeping the speakership candidates away from the White House. If Mr. Garner was also secretly as sinM the task cf getting his fellow Texan and White House favorite elected speaker, some one forgot to tell Mr. Farley or Mr. Guffey about it. A few days after Mr. Garner started to work, Mr. Guffey's Pennsylvania delegation came out unanimously for Byrns. That ruined whatever chance Mr. Rayburn had and assured elec- tion for Mr. Byrns. Some of Mr. Rayburn's lieutenants were amazed at Mr. Guffey's action. They had been led to believe that the worst they -could expect from Pennsylvania was an unpledged dele gation. And where was the White House? A friend of Mr. Guffey explained that he found his boys were strong for Byrns and ho did not want to start off his career in Washington by having them vote him down. The White House explanation was that It could not participate In a strictly house beauty contest like the speakership race, that it took no hand in the matter one way or an other. The public record will bear that out. E Portland Police Say Stolen Articles Found in Sus pect's Home Osborne's Cut Hand Also Clue Prisoner Ordered Held PORTLAND, Ore., Dec. 13. (AP) Articles he reputedly admitted steal ing were found today at the home of Joseph Osbourne, special patrolman grilled about the robbery slaying of Simon Mlsh, 70, retired merchant. Osbourne, who was ordered held for the district attorney, was taken to the scene of the tragedy today. but spoke only a few brusque words when confronted with bloodstains in the Mish home. Shown the fish pond behind the I house where Mlsh's body and the j body of his pet dog. Mickey, were! round, Osbourne said: "I've never been In the backyard before." Detective Captain Jack Keegan said that Osbourne admitted last night he was acquainted with Mlsh and had a drink or two in his home Monday night. Tuesday night Mlsh was kill cdand the diamond ring he wore, the watch he carried and what cash he had in his house were stolen. Detective John Goltz said Osbourne admitted stealing a pair of shoes and other articles from the automobile of F. M. Ellis, who Uvea near the Mlsh home In the residential district for which Osbourne was night watch man. '. A number of other articles. Includ ing four pistols, a sat of expensive golf clubs and sweaters and coats were found In Osbourne's room and taken to headquarters for possible Identification. "I don't see how a man making $30 a month could buy alt that stuff," Captain Keegan said. "I bought it from a kid, cheap," Osbourne replied. Osbourne first was detained for questioning about his cut hand. Cap tnlno Keegan sad the Intruder cut his hand on the window pane of the rear door while gaining entranco to the Mlsh home. Contrary to first teports, no finger prints were found at the Mlsh home. It waa announced. Keegan said Osbourne waa wearing gloves when he reported at a police precinct at 1 a. m. Wednesday with his hand cut and bleeding. Osbourne said three men beset him and his hand was hurt in the scuffle. Today he was asked to show exactly where the purported attack occurred. Keegan said there was nothing there to bear out Osbourne's story and that there was no blood. Mlsh was struck three stunning blows on the head with a blunt weap on which thus far as not been Identi fied. Captain Keegan said two halra were found on the handle of Os bourne's revolver and the hairs would be compared with hair of the victim.

PARAGUAY WANTS DOKE FREED IN TOGO ON 1NSLAYING OF WIFE'S 114 DEG. OF HEAT CL i Everyone, including Mr. Rayburn. could see he was licked. His with drawal Induced some of Mr. Byrns' friends to talk about letting by gones be bygones, and making Mr. Rayburn floor leader, the consola tion prize. There was not much of a swelling of sentiment tor that solution be cause everyone realized Mr. Byrns nd Mr. Rayburn probably would get along like Carter Glass and Huey Long. The situation called for a floor lender with whom Byrnes would work closely. At any rate, that Is the theory to date of how Mr. Byrns caught the No- 3 Jcb and Mr. Rayburn caught a train. v you can write your own moral for it.

PRESIDENT 0r i& DRIVE FOR , ATE 'NEW DEAL" LAI Prestige Gained in Election to Be Used to Influence Legislatures Housing Program Aid Stressed WASHINGTON, - Dec. 15. (AP) The administration waa shown today to be using the prestige demonstrated at the November election in an un precedented effort to influence tie states to enact laws reinforcing sev eral phases of the new deal. With 42 legislatures meeting next month, President Roosevelt hlmsel! and prominent members of his offi cial advisory family have been urging state legislation to facilitate NRA code enforcement, provide for unem ployment insurance, maximum hours and minimum wages, and to make the PWA and housing programs mere effective. Mr. Roosevelt Interested himself directly and emphatically only y terday in connection with the hous ing program. He wrote lettera to the governors of virtually all the state asklng laws that would permit larger loans for homa construction and re pair, to be Insured by federal money. His action was taken upon the sug gestion of James A. Moffett, housing administrator, who explained that iu numerous states loans on mortgagee are limited to 50 per cent of vaiuc His own belief was that with federal Insurance behind such loans a max imum of 80 per cent would not be tv much. The NIRA Is to be re-enacted In modified form, apparently retaining the principles of collective bargain ing, maintenance of minimum wage and the ban on child labor. As soon as the detail are settled the drrve for new atate laws will begin. State legislation backing up the codes removes entirely the knottteac constitutional question In NRA tne validity of the law as It applies to the companies whoso products do not pass beyond the boundaries of tt state In which they are produce!. That question Is Involved In a case now headed for supreme court adju dication.

Dec. 15. (AP) An ' unemployment insurance plan under which the employer would bear the full expense by means of a payroll tA alned the approval today of President Roosevelt's economlo secur. Ity sdviaory council. A man thoroughly familiar with tr.e work of the council, but who declined low the general lines of last year's ' Wagner-Lewis unemployment Insur- ' to be quoted, said the plan would fol- anco bill. The council approved it by a olose vote. Under the proposal of the council, he said, the federal government would exercise a wider control over the a1- ' ministration of the Insurance funds i by the states than would have been had under the Wagner-Lewla bill. This measure, which failed of - ' actment last session after sturdy op- position by employer Interests, would ! have levied a federal psyroll tsx but '. would have deducted from this levy any contributions to state unemploy ment insurance funds, thus seeking to spur the crestlon of state ays- -terns. The greater measure of federal ' control projected under the new plan, the same source said, had given ru to the Impression In some quarters that the federal government would ' grant a subsidy to those states which enacted unemployment Insurance that conformed to standards set up by the national law. It waa Indicated that the cost f administering the plan probably ' would be borne by the federal gov- -ernment. The plan approved by the council : won over another method of lnsui ance after a close rote. The dotal, of the other plan were not disclosed. The proposal that the employer . bear the full expense of the Insur ance had been advanced by the Am erican Federation of Labor. Secre- tary Porklna advocated It In a speech last night. Both she snd the feder ation said that If the employer bote ths full expense, he would pass it along to the consumer In the form of slightly Increased prices snd tha In this manner the workers would bear a portion of the expense. The argument was presented that ' since the worker made up more than 76 per cent of the buying popular If he contributed to the u nam piny. ment Insurance cost directly, he would be In a position of making a double contribution because he would . help to bear the employer's share through payment of increased pricn. - Christmas Seals do their share, you doing yours?
