WASHINGTON, July 1. The fear of a sudden crisis aorasd which might keep the preeldent from leav ing Waahlngton to attend the funeral of Senator Robinson at Little Rock can now be confirmed In other quar ters. . Prenaratlona for surprise drive on congress by certain peace groups were uncovered which bolstered re ports that officials feared the ques tion of Invoking the neutrality law was Imminent. The altuation In Europe as well as In the Far East. It was Indicated, might make this necesaary. Th first oblectlve in the carefully organised campaign will be to get two bills out ox tne xoreign au-n-oommtttee and before congress. Pressure for action wilt be brought on the il8 members of the house of representatlvea who voted for an amendment to the neutrality act prohibiting the export of arms, am munition and Implementa of war at all times. This amendment failed to pass, and immediately the Fish and O'Malley bills. Incorporating the same ideas, were Introduced. These are the measures now' In committee. Members who supported the amendment will be asked to make speeches on the bills on the floor and assist In securing names for a peti tion to discharge the committee and get. Immediate action. To keep these men In line, and to secure additional support, a barrage of literature Is being laid down over the country. Frank Gannett, head of an organi zation which had been exceedingly active In the fight against the court bill, has addressed a letter to every member of congress urging support for the Ludlow war-referendum mea sure. Meanwhile, although very little at tention has been paid to It. the ad ministration has taken an Important step In re-enforcing the machinery laid down In he Buenos Aires treaties for Inter-American consultation in the Interest of pesce. It has sponsored the introduction in both houses of a bill to amend the neutrality act. The present law cannot be Invoked against an Ameri can republic fighting a foreign na tion. The proposed messure would not exempt any of the new world re publics from the provisions of the act If a consultation of all the other Americans decided that It should not be. . .There has been no official revela tion of the seriousness of the news from abroad, but If the situation Is as grave as Indicated, the shock at tack of the pacifists Is more than a Tactics mere fluttering of wing l the dove. cote. If congress decide to adjourn without a filibuster, the department of the interior, which began at mid night on July 16 to hold lu breath, will Inhale again for, of course, its appropriation will be passed eventu ally. It has no money to ga en and when you consider the far-flung ae- . tlvltles of the PWA, the rivers and harbors work, flood control, the ac tivities of the army engineers and the projects that range from dams to boon-doggles, that's a breath-taking dilemma. The continuing resolution gave the department one-twenty-fourth of the last fiscal year's expenditures, but you cant go ' ahead with much speed when you don't know where the next payroll la coming from.' Perhaps not typical of what the law's daisy means to some of the taxpayers, or at least voters. Is the . danger of holding up Irrigation pro jects. The dust-bowl victims are de manding water faster than it can be provided anyhow, and If the ditch diggers can't be paid, arable land Isn't to be had. And even when congress decides to1' move they are predicting fifteen roll calls before 'the bill can be agreed upon, there are so many controver sial local Issues Involved. It now becomes apparent why the adverse report of the senate Judiciary committee waa written more like ' brief for the prosecution than an ordinary committee report. It la considered by the opponents of the bill as the best propaganda they have. If the bUl Isn't with drawn or recommitted, 244.000 copies will be sent out to clergymen of all denominations, through senator, Burke's office. One wsy the program Is financed -la this: Whenever someone writes in asking how he can help defeat tha bill, the senator'a office which re-' celves the letter suggests that money be contributed. The sum Is used to purchase copies of the bill which are franked out by the senator. The Grange Eagle Point Orange Eagle Point Orange meets In reg ular session July 20 with Master Sam Coy In charge.
