InWl A MM rfifnMVlfnl A ISMS Id) Jl By PALL MALLON (Cpyright, 1937, by Paul Mallon.) Simplicity. WASHINGTON, May 39. The Stand of the house against President Roose velt's spending freedom has been widely misinterpreted. It has been called a personal re p u dlatlon of the president, an economy move, a Democratic party split and several! other things, which It Isn't. To understand congress, you need only to un derstand human nature. . The ba Paul Mallon. sis behind most congressional actions will be found In such primitive In stincts as self-protection and self preservation. The simple reason why those legis lators voted to earmark one-third of Mr. R's $1,500,000,000 for relief Is because they want to be sure to get as much as they can for their home districts. The house is up- for re-election next year. Mr. Roosevelt la not. Neither Is the cordially disliked (In congress) spender Harry Hopkins. If Mr. Hopkins has complete freedom In spreading the dough In a congres sional campaign year, the manna may not fall where poltlcally oppressed legislators need It. Specifically, the re-election of a legislator from the umpteenth district of Tlmbuctoo may depend more on whether he was a Die to get a dam built In Trickling creek with federal money than upon his votes In congress. . Naturally, they want to earmark those (300,000,000 for PWA, 955,000, 000 for flood control and water con servation -construction,-- and ,-.$160,, 000,000 for highway and grade cross ings. ' They want to get theirs. The rebels undoubtedly were em boldened to their self-assertlvenese by Hmlnlshlng awe of the White House. Some of them liked the Idea of offering an outburst of resent ment against the way they have been treated under the new order. At heart, they are not really so much against the president person ally on this Issue, but rather sgalnst bis subordinates. For example, thvy do not like to see any of these Inde pendent bureau chiefs downtown making over $10,000 a year, because this Is all they make. They cut CCC Director Pechner from $13,000 a few weeks before they cut Mr. Hopkins. All In all. It shows congressmen are beginning to look out for their own (Continued on Page Two) PRESIDENT RESTS AT MOTHER'S HOI HYDE PARK. N. Y.. May 31.
