By EDWARD W. PICKARD

President roosevelt, back
* from his brief trip to New Haven,
New London# and hie home In Hyde
Park, put In a busy week clearing up
his desk for his de
parture on the long
planned cruisethrough
the i’ana'ma canal to
the West coast and
Hawaii All those
who have had occa
sion during the last
generation to call at
the White House are
glad to learn that Ru
dolph Forster was
selected by the Presi
dent to make the voy
age with him. Since
Rudolph
Foratar
the days of McKinley this able and
courteous gentleman, now executive
clerk In charge of the White House
executive offices, has been on duty and
never before has he accompanied any
President on a trip. Now Mr. Forster
la going to have a real vacation, and
Secretaries Howe, McIntyre and Earle
will remain behind to take care of the
White House. There will be no other
civil officials aboard the cruiser Hous
ton, and Mr. Roosevelt will Isolate
himself from business so fdr as la pos
sible.
On the way down to the canal Mr.
Roosevelt will visit Puerto Rico and
the Virgin Islands. From Panama
City he will go to the Hawaiian Islands,
first making a brief stop In Colombia.
Returning to the Pacific coast early In
August Mr. Roosevelt will travel over
land by rail, and there is a possi
bility he will make some g|teeches,
probably in Minneapolis and (Ireen
Bay, WIs., where the tercentenar/ of
the Badger state will be ctdebraled.
I MMEDIATE relief for the drouth
stricken areas In the Middle West
was decreed by the President In an
executive order which allocated
280,DUG for direct aid. The remain
der of the first distribution of federal
relief for the drouth area Included
$43,750,000 for purchase of seed, food
and live stock; $28,000,000 for seed
and feed loans. $12,500,000 for pur
chase of lands In the drouth regions,
and $12,500,000 for establishment of
civilian conservation camps In the
stricken region.
DOSTMASTER GENERAL FARLEY
* and Secretary of the Treasury Mor-
genthau came forward with an an
nouncement of their plans for the
spending of $110,000,000 In the con
struction of new post offices and fed
eral buildings.
In all, 620 communities In every
state and four territories have been
selected for new federal buildings,
according to the announcement. Half
of U»e program—building*—wiH be
undertaken with $05,000,000 authorised
for that purpose in the recently en
acted deficiency-emergency appropria
tion bill. It was explained that 324
buildings will be constructed with
“funds already available from other
•ources.'*
In selecting the proJecLa_to be in-. _
eluded In the new program Mr. Far
ley and Mr. Morgenthau stated they
were guided by the language of the
deficiency bill directing that they “en
deavor to distribute the projects
equitably throughout the country so
far as may be consistent with the
needs of public service,” and “with a
view of relieving country wide unem
ployment.”
New York state gets more of the
new buildings than any other state,
with 50 of Its communities slated to
get new post offices, custom houses, or
court houses. California, traditionally
high on the list when federal money
is being banded out, comes second with
61 projects. Third Is Pennsylvania
with 45, T^xas Is fourth with 35, and
Illinois fifth with 32.

kins, the steel masters and th«
1 workers were studying out the
d to permanent peace In the steel
ndustry, the American Iron and Steel
institute issued a statement claim!
that 90.12 per cent of workers “eligible
and available to vote" In eight tdajor
steel companies’ employee representa
tion plans had cast ballots at final
elections, compared with approximate
ly 85 per cent at the primaries.
The Institute made public final fig
ures on the election! balloting, show
ing 193,362 workers participated out of
a total of 214,961 ellglbles.
A district organizer for the Amalga
mated Association of Iron, Steel, and
Tin Workers was nominated as an em
ployee representative in a plant of the
United States Steel corporation, the
Institute said, but wh* defeated in the
Institute termed the figures a
Ifirmation of “the ifosition -of the
1 Industry that strike talk by union
was not supported by the vast
majority of employees.”
f N ACCORDANCE with a resolution
1 s
adopted by congress. Secretary
Morgenthau announced that after July
1 every liquor bottle made and sold In
this country mnat have the name of
^iiumlfcrtsrer and distiller or rec
tifier blown into the glass. The pur
pose of this measure is to halt boot
legging, but the boltje Jubbera declare
Its effect will be to foster monopoly
and Increase the prices of liquor. Har
old J. Fishbeln of Chicago, represent
ing the National Bottle Jobbers' asso
ciation, said the regulation would vir
tually wipe out every small Jobber.
“This entire measure Is bused on a
misconception,” he declared. “I’re-
prohibition experience showed that the
bootlegger could always get bottles of
whatever kind he had need. Even If
It were possible to dry up every-gource
of legitimate supply of bottles to the
bootlegger, the supposed goal of the
regulation would never be reached.
“Why, every bellboy, every saloon
keeper, and apartment building Jani
tor would become a source of bottle
supply.”

A formal letter, accompanied by
long explanation, the code author
ity of the cleaners and dyers have
notified the President that it has with
drawn Its consent to the code. The
reason assigned for this action Is that
Administrator Johnson, acting by au
thority of the President, suspended the
minimum price snti nfhar .fair-trade-
practice provisions of the code while
leaving In effect all other provisions,
including those establishing minimum
wages and maximum hours of labor.
The cleaners and dyers sav that
with operating costs greatly Increased
by the labor provisions It Is Impossible
to make a profit unless a minimum
price Is estatdished and enforced.
In Its ap|KMided explanation the code
authority challenged the validity of
this action by General Johnson, coutln-
utngi
“We cannot believe that yon would
knowingly countenance a reckless dis
regard of repeated promises and as
surances given to authorized repre
sentatives of the trade by the admin
istrator personally within two weeks
of the date on which he played a major
role in their breach.”
The code was consented to. says the
memorandum, "on the express under
standing” that the minimum price
and other trade practice provisiona
“were absolutely necessary If mem
bers of the trade were to comply with
other provisions of the code. Including
the limitations on maximum hours
and minimum wages of labor.” The
suspension of the minimum price pro
vision Is pronounced “a deprivation
of the primary benefit ef the code to
members of the trade, leaving them
only the burdens.'’
H ERE Is more woe for President
Mendleta of Cuba. The A. B. 01
society, strongest of the secret political
associations In the Island, baa an
nounced that It would no longer sup
port the Mendleta government The
reason given was “the lack of firm
ness displayed by the government In
dealing with terrorists, especially
with men responsible for the assanlt
on the A. B. C. parade June 17,” when
a dozen men and women were killed
and scores Injured.
The A. B. C. manifesto said-the so
ciety would continue to work for the
good of Cuba against tem>|rism and
other forma of “gangsterism” which
“are directly trscoehlft fn th* Infiiiem*

was that we are headed for greater

ILM to be recalled farther that Mr.
Roosevelt, In submitting legislative
proposals to either of the two sessions
of congress, has said with absolute
frankness that his program, then be

features. With equal frankness and
courage, he stated In each Instance
that If the experiments failed, he
would be among the first to admit the
fact Such was his attitude regarding
the gigantic agricultural adjustment
program with all of hla various pol
icies for limitation of production and
enforced control of surplus. But
since the President has not said yet
that any of these have failed, tt can
only he concluded that be la satisfied
with the progress being made.

doubting Thomases are pointing the
finger of scorn more and more to these
experiments, and I am Informed by
observers who have been visiting va

there Is dissatisfaction In consider

From Industrial cotwnnltlea and

Is going to pay for all of this?"
There can he no doubt that this
question of “who Is going to pay" will
become paramount at a later date
than It Is now. But the leaders of
the New Deal have gone no further to
this date than to say that a restored
prosperity will make the payments
ensy. And the truth of their state
ments, of course, cannot be disputed.

of the White House to pay less and

is not the type, of course, who will

examines the statements and Informa

And this Is happening In a period when
there Is obviously very much more

to the newspaper correspondent*
about the colonel’s “discourtesy” In
making the message public. Some six

Criticism has been made In con
