Jan. 2. In two years President Roosevelt has quietly developed a very shrewd technique lor handling congress. It la something like the one Aunt Sa th u a o d on Peek's Bad Boy, taping him ln the home to re move htm from temptation. The president 3 has already started using It Again on the new congressional ses i alon. You could I free the delicate I'aul MalJuo j 4 Whlta House touch behind two re- y legislation and munitions. Via the first place, Chairman Pat spent Issued a call early in No Medforor his senate finance corn meet here after Thanksgiv Rmn stnke up unemployment in 11 fists t The meeting has not been A mo Year'sason publicly offered la that Ram'Ort of Mr. Roosevelt's cabi nea;mmlttee was not, ready ln time. Wf is true, but if you dig into you will find that the cabinet ommittec has not tried to break any cd records ln preparing Its rc & port. Obviously, Mr. Roosevelt does 1 not let congress play with that dan gerous issue, or any other, until he la ready. The president will hand out a lot of general, unspecific orders In his opening message, to be delivered in a few days, but he will reserve spe cific recommendations on the lm apecific playthings, lie will feed out one by one. Thus, attention and pressure will be centered on tnem. ' f with them, chnnuine them or tirlnp of tnem. Thus, also, Mr. Roosevelt will al ways be in control of the legislative program. Ho will control what Is to be considered ln congress by sub mitting only what he wants consid ered from time to time. A variation of that device was used by the White House In the muni tions matter. In that case. Mr. Roosevelt seized the brightest politi cal toy of many a year right out of the hands of Chairman Nye of the senate munitions committee. As Nye was shaping It up, the issue would have been public operation of mu nitions manufacturing. Mr. Roosevelt had other plans. He practically filed Mr. Nye's issue in the store room when he advanced the substitute proposal to limit the war profits of munitions makers. By such tactics, Mr. Roosevelt has been able to make himself the master of congress more effectively than any president before. The congressmen do not like It any more than young reck did. but there Is little they can do about it. except grumble to thrmselvrs, and they are doing that. The main difficulty ts that con siderable confusion is caused at times, and occasionally the congressional leaders look irdicutous. Newsmen wanrterlns through the corridors of the house and senate of fice hutldincs during the last few days have faced a reversal of the usual newspaper processes. Instead of Interviewing congressmen, the con gressmen have been Inten lewing them for news. r The congressmen right now do not know any more nhout wivjt they are going to do this session than you do. If you have rrnd the pipers dally. That situation is experrrd to con tinue throueh this session, ns it did last session. Most of t:.e reporters are making arrangemen' to corer . congress mainly from the White 1 House, as usual. j There waa considerable private crit icism among senate Den ocrata be cause their floor leader. Srrator Rob inson, remained at home In Arkan sas so long. He knew rvt.at he was doing. It Is customary for the leadership to assemba here abot'.t two weeks be fore the session oens.
