MAVERICK RIDES | Months-Old Fire Still Is Smouldering HERD AGAIN ON
HOUSE LIBERALS
Criticizes ‘Hoover Talk’ Congress, but Flays New Deal, Too.
By HERBERT LITTLE
WASHINGTON, Nov. Maverick (D. Tex), stocky and pug-
nacious Congressman, is back at his self appointed task of drumming up
“thunder from the left.”
Rep. Maverick is the leader, by virtue of being the most outspoken | and aggressive, of the unorganized “liberal bloc” of the House,
balance of power on closely divided issues, and in other situations it has a nuisance value which sometimes forces consideration of its ideas. In the new session, he came back, surprised to find that members were confusedly talking what he called “Hoover talk,” with most of Washington “scared” of the business recession, whereas, he reported, ‘most of the talk out in the country is Roosevelt talk, and most of the people of the country are not scared.” Now as in the past he roams restlessly through the halls of Congress, conferring, promoting, making radio speeches, urging action on the President’'s program. porters as much as they interview him, and publicly criticizes his colleagues from the South who have blocked the New Deal's new drives for legislation.
Supported Antilynching Bill
His own support of the antilynching bill brought him no criticism from his own district, he asserts. He blames the reactionaries, the “Wall

Street Crowd” and the “price-fixers of the South as well as the North, for the country’s troubles. “Why are we in a slump?” he demands, and replies to his own question: “It's the same old dreary story: When prosperity began to get into swing the monopolists raised prices, grabbed off unreasonable profits, and left the public to hold the bag. What happened is simple: Farm income, and city wages, industrial and white-collar, were not sufficient to buy all the goods at these exorbitant prices. As a result inventories piled up, and haven't been worked off yet.” Then he turns to criticism of the Administration for listening to “the

spiel of big business that Government spending must be reduced because the big boys were going to take up the slack.” “They didn't take up the slack.” he says, “and as a matter of cold fact, no sooner did the Government lay off thousands of, relief workers, stop public works and drastically cut its spending, than business began to sag. If we ever had an example of what purchasing power means, we have had it since the first of the year, . . . Yet the same crowd that visited Hoover and bungled the Old Deal are knocking at the White House door—and knocking the New Deal.” Rep. Maverick, who has often praised the President's brain trust,
