rently puzzling legislative situation.
No one else at the capltol is supposed
to know the answers to the riddles
you see dally in the headlines
whether there is going to be a tax
t bill, or when, if ever, congress Is go
ing to adjourn.
Now It Is never a good Idea to mix
magic with poker, even metaphoric
ally. People have been shot doing
that. But it is safe to point out that
Mr. Garner has the best poker face
in Washington. It Is rymored for in
stance, that he frequently carries his
hole card home with him at nights.
Consequently, you will never find the
answers from him. But, in other ways
you can get some fairly helpful Ideas.
It is no secret, for Instance, thit
Messrs. Roosevelt and Garner see
more clearly every day that the move
to keep congress here to enact a tax
bill was a dangerous venture. It has
resulted in raising the bonus issue;
started a silver uprising; encouratrea
the Frazier-Lemkeltes; offered an
opportunity for a congressional In
flation drive. It has raised every bur
led issue the new dealers wanted to.
keep buried. In fact, If they -Anew
you well enough, they would probably
concede that it was a mistake to
bring the Idea up at this time.
, Consequently, there is more than
, i faint ground for the suspicion that
there would be no walling or gnash
ing of teeth around the White House
if an honorable way of delaying the
plan until next session could be
found, In order that congress could
be adjourned as soon aa possible.
You may look for one of two con
clusions: (a) A bargain whereby the
original Roosevelt tax proposal and
the bonus will be pushed through in
t, hurry on the some bill, or (b) a
hasty adjournment after the passage
of the bank bill and other "must"
legislation (leaving the tax program,
the bonus, and all the substitute fin
ancial panaceas until next session.)
The odds now favor the latter
course. An adjournment on that
basis within the next three weeks Is
probable, despite all you have heard
to the contrary.
Wise news readers can rest their
eyes when they come to statements
now being Issued by the various con
gressional leaders. All are talking for
effect, rather then for edification.
This Is not a phenomenon. Near the
end of the session, they always mike
false threats, assume positions they
do not intend to hold. In order to
better their bargaining position.
This applies to the statement by
administration authorities that the
tax program must be settled before
adjournment, as well as to the prog
nostication of Senator Borah that
congress will be here until November
: 1.
President Roosevelt has been eas

because of the congressional frn.-.t-v

ary for ember-zleinent.
Johnson was convicted October 13.
1932, In the Multnomah county cir
cuit court.
"This case Involves a man In a high
position entrusted with the savings
of thousands of persons mostly Inex
perienced In business affairs," the
governor said. "By criminal misman
agement, fraud, and by stealing, he
squandered and frittered away these
savings and took moneys that did not
belong to himself."
The governor scored the practice of
"appealing to the sjate executive to
turn loose men of prominence who
have been sentenced after fair trial,"
and declared that to pardon Johnson
would give a basis for the "charge
that weak sentimentality too often
frustrates the effort of. society to
suppress crime."
