RAMBLINGREPORTER

Says •

Eventually, all of thefacts behind PresidentRoosevelt's Jefferson Isl-and picnic with Democra-tic members of Congressmay leak out. But for thetime being, the only wayto find out why the showwas staged and what it ac-complished is to quotepeople who are supposedto know.

First, the "why." It iscommon gossip that forweeks, Congressional lead-ers had been telling thePresident that his prestigeon Capitol Hill was wan-ing. One reported reasonwas his advocacy of theSupreme Court enlarge-m&nt plan; another expla-nation was that many Con-gressmen, realizing thatlabor unionists constituteabout one-tenth of the na-tion's working folks,thought he should protectthe other nine-tenths, andinsist that unions obey thelaw and accept responsibi-lity for their acts.

The story is that thePresident's "liason" or"contact" men were notgiving him the same re-port. So he suggested theJefferson Island "lovefeast," and his leaderssnapped at the idea.

Now this is what actual-ly happened at the Island,according to some Con-gressmen who would makepretty good reportersthemselves: The "guests"were brought in singly andin small groups. They werepresented to the Presidentand stood around, shuffl-ing: their feet aoid twiddl-ing their thumbs, and talk-ing about the weather. Thevisits didn't last long, be-cause scores of others werewaiting to be presented.

Then the "guests" wenton about their business.Some did nothing but takethe kind of exercise thatmade their elbows tired.They were a minority.Others went swimming orfishing. Some played baseball. Some sang. Some justsat and wistfully thoughtabout the golf bags theyhad to leave at home.

Among- the crowd werethree well known persons:James A. Farley, Postmas-ter General and chief dis-penser of jobs to deservingconstituents; CharlesWest,who officially is Undersec-retary of the Interior butwho actually is the Presi-dent's closest reporter andrepresentative on CapitolHill; and James Roosevelt,the President's son, whoalso is a "contact" man onthe Hill.

Strangely enough, thesethree gentlemen were seenengaged in very seriousconversations with a num-ber of legislators. Whatwould they have been like-ly to talk about ? Just whatit is said some of them didtalk about, namely thestatus of the legislativeprogram, what bills shouldbe pushed through, andwhat ought to be done forwho helped pushed themthrough, and what oughtto be done to those whotried to stop the bills.

- m m w

Consequently, althoughthe President did talk lateat night with some of hsleaders who reputedlystuck to their insistencethat much of the legisla-tion be dropped, nobodycould say that he button-holed members and askedthem* to vote with him.

In the first place, manymembers expected that.

ASSESSMENTS INFORDS TOO HIGHSAYS ALEXANDERSUGGESTS FULL TIME POSI-

FORDS, N. J- — Claiming thatassessments in the Fords sectionwere altogether too high, CharlesJ. Alexander, second ward repre-sentative on the Township commit-tee, suggested that the assessor'sjob be made a full time post. JohnB. Mattensori is second ward as-sessor.

We met a fellow the other day. He's a kind of acomical duck. And he says to us, "You know the waysome things are being run by our county board offreeholders. Well, it makes me think of a couple oflads who were driving a car, and who had taken anextra swig."

Not having heard the story, we asked who thesetwo men were. So this fellow says, "Well, it seemsthat two half-lit-up guys were zippin' along at a pret-ty good clip, just ridin* around, and all at once theymade a quick turn and just about shaved the paint offa couple of highway posts.

"And the feller rindin' alongside of the driver,his hair standing on end, hollered at the feller at thewheel, 'Hey you big loon, why don't you look whereyou'2-e going?' And the driver said,, "Gee whiz, Bill,you know, I thought all the time that it was you whowas'driving.' "

And this story might be old and lame and halt,but this duck who told it, boy, he knows how ourgovernment is run.

How Lewis WorksCounty manufacturers who think they may be

safe from depredations by John L. Lewis' CIO agentsbecause it would be difficult for them to organize allof their employees should take heed as to just howLewis and his cohorts work.

If a firm employs 10 or 10,000 workers, the CIOagents do not waste time trying to organize all or amajority of the men.

They merely organize a small number such as10, 50 or 100 key men in one link of the assemblingof a factory's product.

And the county business man will have to spendmoney to go to court, or lose money and time in someway no matter ho wshort the insurrection in his plantmay be.

The cheapest method is to spend money to edu-cate the public and workers BEFORE the agents ofLewis can get very far in Middlesex county.

The Dispatch is too much under obligation toeven call its soul its own but in effort to "hold" Re-publican readers it gives what it regards as "Repub-lican news."

This consists of accounts of bickering among theso-called Republicans, employees of the two electionboards who owe their appointment to Hague.

Regardless of how itwas done, the word cer-tainly got spread that thePresident wants Congressto stay in session until itvoted to enlarge the Su-preme Court and, mean-while, acts on his otherbills. No matter how muchswimming or fishing ortalking or elbow-bendingthey did, there are stillmany members who stilldon't like the idea.

Because a lot of men aregetting awfully tired ofhearing that word "must",no matter how it's sugarcoated.

-WASHINGTON LETTER

Rump Democrats Divide Partyin Congress, Worry President

BY SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT

Visible vs. Invisible Taxes"It would be an excellent thing if some of the manyi

taxes now levied indirectly were promptly scrapped in fa-:

vor of direct personal taxes, even on the smallest incomes,"says the New York Times. "That would give us an elector-ate with a greater sense of responsibility in the matter ofpublic finance, and legislatures with more backbone in thematter of retrenchment."

The persistent belief possessed by millions of citizensthat they pay no taxes whatsoever because their incomesfall below certain "income tax exemptions"—coupled withthe attitude that "the rich guys have to pay"—has bredan almost callous disregard for government spending.

Direct taxes constitute a minor part of the govern-ment income, while indirect taxes on food, clothing, drugs,amusements—everything we buy and use—fall propor-tionately heavier on the poor man than on the well-to-do,because there are fewer of the latter.

The Times' suggestion to have direct taxes supplantsome of the indirect taxes, is an excellent one. Unfortun-ately, our lawmakers always such ideas with enmity, be-cause of their potential political repercussions. But thefact remains that ail of us pay taxes, and that persons ofmoderate means are proportionately the heaviest taxpay-ers. This should be constantly repeated and emphasized.Eventually, it will sink in on the voter and then the law-makers will act.

Fortunes and UniversitiesThe amount of money invested in the colleges and uni-

versities of the United States is amazing and the endow-ments of some of the larger universities, staggering. Har-vard University, of Cambridge, Massachusetts, has an en-dowment of more than- $130,000,000 to take care of its8,000 students and to pay the 1700 teachers on its roster.

The average citizen of this republic will wonder whatHarvard does with its money and question whether thecause o feducation gets as much results as it would if thesame amount of money had been distributed among hun-dreds of smaller colleges.

Continuing to use Harvard University as an example be-cause of its great resources, we call attention to the factthat the University last year had total receipts of $11,-534,056—'more revenue than some of the states of theunion had. The University's income amounted to morethan $1,300 per student, which ought to be enough tomake very wise men of all the graduates of that great in-stitution.

Two Lessons, At LeastThere are two lessons, at least, to be learned from the

story of Robert Irwin, 29-year-old sculptor and former the-ological student, who will soon go before a jury in NewYork, charged with the killing of three persons, includinga woman, her daughter and a roomer.

After killing the older woman, Irwin says he didn't wantto murder the daughter because she was beautiful and he"hated to destroy beauty." However, he had to hold heran hour while waiting for her sister—the one he decidedto kill—to come home and he thought she did not knowwho he was but she made the mistake of saying, "I knowit's you, Bob."

The Lesson, as we see it, is that, in the event any oneyou know, slugs you and holds you captive, be noncholantand call some other name. It might save your life.

Now that the police have captured Irwin, described asgiggling, jaunty and without the slightest trace of re-morse, his lawyers come forward with the theory that heis crazy and therefore .not responsible for his triple mur-der. They hope to save his carcass from the chair and,perhaps a little later, he will be pronounced sane andturned out a free man.

The defense of insanity, if established, may be convinc-ing insofar as moral responsibility is concerned but a mur-derously inclined human being is a menace to society whe-ther crazy or not. The purpose of legal punishment is notto injure the guilty through a spirit of vengeance but asa warnings to others not to commit similar crimes.

A man whose insanity is a warped conscience does notbelong in the same category with a raving, raging, out-of-control mentality. Irwin had sense enough to plan a crime,to make his escape, to live for weeks as a worker in Chi-cago and, it seems, to set up a defense that might enablehim, to beat the electric chair. He is intelligent, even ifmentally disordered in a degree, and his type is a distinctmenace to other people everywhere.

The lesson number two, as we see it, is that, in order todeter other suoh intelligent-insane mentalities, the legalpunishment of Irwin should not be avoided by society uponthe flimsy reasoning that he was not responsible for whathe did.

Offer the average person a favor and the favor is asgood as accepted.

A hundred years makes a big difference in the perplexi-ties of civilization.

Almost any murderer thinks he is crazy if he is caught.• • • • «

BIBLE THOUHT FOR TODAY

Pride goeth before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall.

Better it is to be of an humble spirit with the lowly, thanto divide the spoil with the proud.—Proverbs, ChapterXVI; 18-19.

WASHINGTON. — The Demo-" cratic party in Congress is

divided against itself. A rumpgroup of leaders has demonstrat-ed its ability to take over thewheel when the conservativeDemocratic leadership cannotsteer the President's program.

These rump leaders are re-volting against the efforts of the"battalion of death" group anda strong southern contingentwhich hopes to bring the Presi-dent's plans to a dead halt thissession and prevent him fromdictating the Democratic nomi-nation in 1940. The unofficialcall to arms for this group is thequestion, "Who won the lastelection?"

The most conspicuous rumpleaders are Senators Hugo Blackof Alabama, Alben Barkley ofKentucky, Lew Schwellenbachof Washington, Sherman Mintonof Indiana and Bob La Folletteof Wisconsin. They are, for themost part, young men, and theydiffer in one important particu-lar from their opponents in thatgenerally they have been morerecently elected to office.

The liberals in the Housegroup, which includes Progres-sives and Farmer-Laborites fromWisconsin and Minnesota, re-spectively, is led by Congress-man Maury Maverick of Texas.But Speaker Bankhead, whoformally is the leader of theHouse,, and Majority LeaderSam Rayburn and Rules Chair-man John O'Connor, have beenco-operating more with Roose-velt than with the Senate Lead-ership, whose members are ac-cused by Roosevelt partisans of

everything from "sitdown tac-tics" to actual revolt.

• * *'pHE regular leaders are be-

wildered and resentful oveithe rise of the rump leaders. Re-ferring to the regular leadershipone must include the chairmenof the chief House and Senatecommittees. Committee chair-manships are passed out on -obasis of seniority. That mean.-that most committee chairmeiare conservative southern mem-bers who have been in Congres>many years.

Some of these chairmen andother leaders are confused be-cause those men upon whomthey have been accustomed torely for financial support incampaigns have demanded thaithey stop following White Houseorders.

There is anger especially overRoosevelt's encouragement of la-bor organization; the Black-Con-nery wage and hour bill and theexpenditures for relief. Thisopposition, sometimes allied withthe "battalion of death" group,has made an effort to humblethe President and that effort hasbeen reflected in Congress, espe-cially in the Senate.

Majority Leader Robinson ofArkansas can hardly be said tobe in revolt against presidents}policy. His loyalty to Rooseveltis almost incredible. But heplainly showed his concern overfederal spending and debt. Andhis relief bill amendment re-quiring localities to contribute25 per cent to WPA projectscosts when able was a harmonymove.

BOYS GAIN WEIGHTAT KEEP WELL CAMP

WOODBRIDGE.—With substan-tial gains in health already madein on-d week's stay at the countycamp tor undernourished children,150 county boys, including a num-ber of local children, began to fayat the Kiddie Keep Well Camp asecond week of health vacationingcharacterized by gay times thecamp's staff members have assur-ed.

Quick to adopt themselves tonew surroundings, the boys have

followed eagerly the leadershipof recreation department leaders.An unusually large amount of edu-cational recreation has been con-ducted in three daily activity per-iods. This is especially true in thenature department, where theyoungsters have eagerly gatheredwild flowers from nearby fields inRoosevelt Park, pressed them inbcoks and learned to distinguishdifferent varieties.

Indian lore has been a most poplar sport of the work in hand-craft and dramatics. Indian potterytotem poles, and other objects arebeing made in great numbers bythe boys, while in dramatics theyare learning many Indian storiesand acting them out at evening en-tertainments. Singing classes arealso popular.

While they are having fun, theboys gained weight and strengthunder a specially designed pro-gram of wholesome food, longhours of sleep in the open, andcareful medical supervision.

"The Ditch of the Dead"- .By FLOYD GIBBONS * - " '

YOU know, boys and girls, the worst thing about dvfl war*and revolutions and the like is that it's always the Inno-

cent bystanders that get it in the neck. Now here's a yarnfrom Benjamin Brinas of New York city that is a swell illus-tration of just that point.

Down in Cuba, in the year 1917, they had a revolution that you prob-ably never heard of. If you'll remember, we were having troublM Ofour own in 1917. We were fighting a war, and the papen wer« full Ofthe latest dispatches from France.

For he was one or th<* = I spoke of a whiteago. The poor devil that was caught i. • mlddla. Th» In—-cent bys'.ander.

Ben Was Taken for a Rebel.Ben ran a cafe in a little town called Ciego de Avila, far from

Havana or any other large city. In February of 1917, the rebel forcMlook the town. About a hundred of the rebel soldiers barged into Btn'lplace and started drinking.

Well—what could Ben do about that? The rebels drank all thtjwanted and went away without even thinking of paying for their drlnki.After all, it was a revolution. If Ben had asked them for money theywould have said he was an enemy and taken him out and shot him. SoBen just laughed it oft—even if he was almost ruined by the amountof hooch those birds had stowed away.

But two days later the government forces of President Menocal tookthe town. They heard that rebels had been drinking for nothing In Ben'icafe and they said to themselves, this fellow Brinas has been harboringrebels and treating them to free drinks. He must be a rebel himself.So they descended on Ben's place and busted everything in sight. B«Bwoke up in a daze in the courtyard with someone telling him h* h&4better run if he wanted to save his life.

Well, sir, ^en's cafe was a wreck. He had lost everything h*had. He had to sneak out of his own home town like a criminaland beg a ride to Havana from a fellow who was driving there laan automobile. But even Havana wasn't safe for him. 'After h«had been there two days he was recognized, arrested, and ch»rj»4with suspicion of being in contact with the rebel*.Says Een: "The police immediately took me to the nearest pollc*

station in town. The cell I was in accommodated eight or more prison-ers. After I had been there an hour or so I noticed that every so often th«guards would come and take out one of us. Finally I was left alon*in the cell."

That might not mean anything to you or me, but to Ben It meantplenty. Down there in Cuba they have what they call the LEY FUEGA—the law of flight. It means that if a prisoner tries to run away ho canba shot by the guards. But the way that law is sometimes used in Latin-American countries is this: The guards take a man from a prisoncell, tell him he is free—and then shoot him down as he walks away.If any questions are asked later, those guards shrug their shouiden andsay: "He tried to escape and we shot him. The LEY FUEGA1 Whatwould you do?"

That's what Ben was up against—and darned well he knewIt. Seven men already had gone out of that cell and Ben had nodoubt that they had gone to their deaths. And he would be the next.It wasn't long. In about half an hour a guard came and took Bin

from the cell. "Where are we going?" Ben asked. Smilingly, the guardsaid he was taking Ben to a train—but Ben noticed that instead of head-ing toward the railroad station they were walking toward tht woodion the outskirts of Havana.

Surprised Them by Escaping."My mind," says Ben, "was in a ferment. I didn't want to die and

every step I took was bringing me closer to my doom. Each one of thof •steps was sheer torture. I begged the guard to let me go free. I offertdhim money. But to each of my pleas he answered furiously, 'I obeymy orders.' We were out of the city now and ahead of me I saw a newlydug ditch. That was the answer to what had become of my recent com-panions in the cell. That ditch was to be my own grave, tool As we ap-proached that ditch, there was only one thought in my mind. That waito save my life at all costs.

"I began to walk more closely to my guard, and to watch himmore narrowly as we walked on. Suddenly I saw him reach forthe machete at his belt, and I knew that was the moment for meto act. With a violent wrench I shook myself free of him andstarted to run."Before Ben was that dreaded ditch—and darknessl Running like a

madman he hurdled the ditch with a leap and plunged on into the dark-"ness beyond. As he Crossed the ditch, shots rang out all around him. Asquad of police guards had been hidden among the trees, and when Benbad broken away and run for it he had done only what they had expectedhim—had wanted him—to do. But one thing they didn't figure on. That wasthat Ben would run that gauntlet of hot lead without being hit.

Yet, that is just what Een did. A dozen shots were fired at him, butnot one of them reached its mark. He plunged on through the thicket,stumbling over rocks and tree roots until the firing ceased and all wasquiet behind him. He hid in the woods all that night and, next morning,covered with mud, he made his way back to Havana. But he didn't staythere. At the first opportunity he got out of Havana—and out of Cuba.And now Ben is here in the old U. S. A., where we don't have revolution*every couple weeks and the innocent bysta'nder gets a better break*

REGENT THEATRE, Elizabeth.Clark Gable and Myrna Loy at-

tain new heights of artistry toge-ther in "Parnell," a drama sug-gested by the career of CharlesStewart Parnell, "Uncrowned Kingof Ireland," which opened at theRegent Theatre.

Although it is primarily a nar-rative of Ireland, ''Parnell" is ac-tually international in its scope, forit is the account of a courageousman who surrendered fame anafortune and power for the womanne loved. John Stahl, one of thescreen's most distinguished direc-tors, followed history with a care-ful eye and reproduced the colortimes with rare skill and power.

The New Universal, which seemsto have discovered the secret ofand beauty of the people and theiraudience appeal, has found anotherhappy combination of story andcast and director in "As Good AsMarried," currently showing at theRegent Theatre.

It is a delightful comedy, a wor-thy successor to such, hits as "MyMan Godfrey," 'Three Smart Girls'and "When Love Is Young." Itsparkles from the first scene to thelast.

The main situation is novel, in-intriguing and amusing. John Bolesis a successful architect harrassedby the demands of gold-digginggirls and income tax collectors,who threaten to strip him of all hisearnings. So what does he do butpropose marriage to his secretary,played by Doris Nolan, who takeshim up on it because she happensto be in love with him.

LIBERTY THEATRE, Elizabeth.Karloff may not be a hero to his

valet, but he is still a monster tohis former gardener. This is dread-fully embarrassing to the actor, es-pecially now that he is trying toget away from plaster casts, mud-pack faces and iron boots—and go"straight." He plays his firststraight role on the screen in Uni-versal's "Night Key," at the Li-berty Theatre, with Jean Rogers ashis leading lady and Lloyd Corri-gan directing.

"In "Night Key" Karloff is an el-derly inventor who thinks up adevice that will open any ki,nd ofa lock by .projecting waves of elec-tricity at it. He is swindled outof this invention by his formerpartner who owns a burglar alarmprojection service. Then he startsthrowing switches in all directionswith rather exciting results.

"Slim."This picture is based on the nov-

el of William Wister Haines andis the story of a young farm boy,who, seeing a construction gang atwork, feels that to be a linemanwould be the height of his ambi-tion. He gets the job and the diff-erent stages as he travels from hisapprenticeship to that of a finishedlineman are very exciting andgripping.

Henry Fonda is the farm boy,Margaret Lindsay is the nurse whowishes him to .have a less danger-ous job, Pat O'Brien is the veteranlineman, Red Blayed, Stuart Er-win is Stumpy and J. Farrell Mac-Donald is Pop. Many other compe-tent actors complete the cast.

Barton MacLane is on in his screenroles, the usual Hollywood actorwho plays villainous parts, Mac-Lane doesn't coyly admit that un-derenath it all he is really a gen-tleman, that loves art and music.

He claims to be roughneck bynature.

In his current First National picture, "Draegerman Courage", nowshowing at the Liberty Theatre,MacLane has a sympathetic part asthe miner who leads the rescuework. It is a hard-boiled charac-terization of a cocky "Draeger-man" who isn't afraid to say thethings that are on his mind or toback them up with his fists.

Mac Lane has had all the train-ing necessary for roles of thistype. Stripped to the waist andstreaming sweat from every pore,he .heaved coal on the "blackgang" of the Leviathan during sev-eral Atlantic crossings.

Not given much ofa chance in the early partof the season, the Steellads have shown up someof the best contenders inrecent games.

WOODBRIDGE.—The only fire-works permitted in the townshipwere shot off at the Grove streetdiamond when the WoodbridgeAmerican Legion nine bombed theSt. Mary Catholic Club or SouthRiver 10-0. A holiday crowd ofnearly 3,000 fans watched the Mes-sickmen turn back the team thatbeat them earlier in the season bythe close score of 2-1.

Bernie Keating, former St.Mary high school ace, was on themound all the way and his curvesand tireball were hit for only Sixwell scattered bingles. Keatingprobably pitched the best game ofthe season by blanking his oppon-ents. He walked only one batterwhile seven St. Mary's batsmentook their three cuts and returnedto the bench.

The fans were dissapointed whenthej tailed to see another pitcher'sbattle. Earlier in the season TobyBartos and Johnny Borak providedthe thrills in their nine inning duelbut the soldiers had on their hit-ting clothes Sunday, and made atotal of eleven hits which account-ed for the ten runs.

The Catholic club started War-anowics, but the Legionaires soonfound him easy. Ray Ottowski re-placed him when the going was toorough. The South River hurlerscombined their efforts in strikingout two Legion batters.

Mickey Virag, Carteret highplayer of the past season, was theright field patroler for the Legion.He played nice-heads-up ball inthe field besides connecting for asingle in three trips to the plate.He also tallied one of the 10 runs.

The fireworks started in the firstinning when Waranowics issued afree pass to Doug King. Leroy Si-monsen's sacrifice sent him to sec-ond. Then Tony Barcellona crack-ed a mighty double into left whichscored King and Simonsen. "Hot-tay" Delaney, the speedster, beatout an error to first, stole second,and came home on a wild pitch,after he had rattled the rivalmoundster with his cunning baserunning.

In the third, Tony Barcellonasent a long triple into deep left tostart the ball rolling again. Kinneyreached first when the Saints in-field pulled a jugglers act, therebyallowing Tony to score. Cassidyrapped out a single and we,nt tosecond on an error. Leahy's singlesent Cassidy and Kinney across theplate to add three more markerslo the score.

The soldiers added two moremarkers to the score.

The soldiers added to more runsin the fourth, and tallied singlecounters in the fifth and seventhinnings to romp home the winnersvia the strikeout route.

Keatiog Urges Parents To Forbid Youngsters To RideBicycles On Highways And Busy Traffic Thoroughfares

WOODBRIDGE.—"It is the moral responsibilityof the parents to keep their youngsters from travelingon the highway and busy traffic streets on bicycles."So declared Chief of Police George E. Keating yester-day in an interview with a representative of thisnewspaper.

Discussing the increase in accidents and in a pleato pedestrians and cyclists to use more caution if theymust travel on the highways, Keating said:

"We have had eight deaths this year due to acci-dents. Four were pedestrians, one a bicyclist (the 15-year-old boy killed yesterday) and only three involvedmotorists. Three of the pedestrians were killed whilewalking the highway after midnight and o,ne sustain-ed fatal injuries on the state highway while it wasbeing heavily patrolled by Wocdbridge Township po-lice, state troopers, motor vehicle inspectors and Sher-iff's men.

"We have had three bicycle accidents here sinceSaturday, and two of the accidents concerned young-sters who were riding on the handlebars."

Continuing, Keating pointed out:"The officers of the law are helpless in fighting

carelessness. Officers are instructed to chase allyoungsters on bicycles off the highways as much aspossible. We have had the experience of finding boysback on the highway a short time after they were toldto stay off. It is the parents that must help us. Theymust instruct their children to keep off the highwaysand they will save themselves a great deal of griefand sorrow later on. It is not easy for a mother to losea 15 year old son, like the one that was killed yester-day. I make this plea to parents in all sincerity. It isnot that the police department wants to be kill-joyand spoil youngsters fun, but there are plenty of sidestreets for them to ride their bikes without any dan-ger."

Keating also urged that pedestrians take morecare while walking on the highway. He pointed outinasmuch as there are no sidewalk facilities, pedestri-ans should be doubly careful. There have been hit-and-run cases on the highway in which pedestrianshave been killed that have not been cleared up.
