President's HoDbtary policy; in both branches when blocs broke off from their leadership to vote for special appropriations. President Roosevelt suffered three notable defeats on the domestic front, two of them in the closing days in rejection of his lendingspending bill and of an additional $800,000,000 appropriation for the U. 8S. Housing Authority. Earlier he saw the last vestige of his cherished undistributed-profits tax torn from the revenue laws. In the foreign field he did not get what he wanted in the way of neutrality legislation. Yet the President held. his own . along the labor front. Those who . came here, fresh from the election, determined to revise the Wagner Labor Relations Act and the WageHour Act were stymied by Administration taetics, though Congress leaves behind a House Committee ta investigate the Wagner act and the Board which enforces it—a Committee headed by the unsympathetic anti-New Dealer Rep. Howard Smith (D. Va.). This may react in ‘the next session.

Hatch Bill Important

« With surprising ease the President won enactment of his bill to reorganize Government departments, though in the previous Congress reorganization was the symbol about which anti-New Dealers and Repub“licans rallied successfully. Likewise he gained continuation of his dollar devaluation powers and the stabilization fund to operate in international exchange.

Congress also revised the Social Security Act along lines favored by the ' Administration, liberalizing the benefit provisions! and lightening the tax burden upon both employers and employees. The outstanding single achievement of the session was that of the - persistent little Senator from New Mexico, Carl A. Hatch (D.) who was victorious in an uphill campaign for his bill to prohibit political ex- . ploitation of WPA and otherwise eliminate politics from the Government service. He was ably assisted by Rep. John J. Dempsey (D. N. M.).

Business Gets Big Job

Business comes from this session of Congress with substantial gains and a resultant responsibility. It got concessions in the revision of business taxes and elimination of the undistributed -profits tax in the “freezing” of the payroll tax, and its Objections to the spending policy were met in the defeat of the spend-ing-lending plan. There now devolves: upon business and industry the duty of carrying out the promise that, if its taxes were adjusted and pump-priming restricted, it would expand its operations and take up some of the unemployment slack. It has available * billions of idle funds for investment. The failure of industry te assume this job would lead next session to a new spending program, according to the belief .of experts here who have watched the temper of this Congress and the country.

b. 0. P, CLAIMS ‘RASH ERA’ NOW HAS BEEN ENDED

‘New Deal Socialism’ Halted. By ‘Americanism,’ Says Rep. Martin. _

WASHINGTON, Aug. 7 (U. P.).— Republican Congressmen fired a

parting shot at the Roosevelt Ad- ;

ministration today in a review of

the first session of the 76th Con-|:

gress which adjourned Saturday night. In a formal statement, House Minority Leader Joseph W. Martin Jr. (R. Mass.) said that the “era of rash and reckless experimentation is ended.” He pledged the Republican members of Congress to continue to fight for “fundamental Americanism.” Republicans, he said, would battle “New Deal socialism at every step of the road,” because ‘America again is seeking the paths of orderly progress under law.”

Reviews Congress

President Roosevelt reviewed the work of Congress with his Senate Leader Alben W. Barkley (D. Ky.) at a White House luncheon yesterday. Later, he talked by telephone to Speaker William B. Bankhead and House Majority Leader Sam Rayburn (D. Tex.). “I feel sure that Congress will be in a different mood when it returns and after its members have talked to the folk back home,” said Senator Barkley, who fought in vain for enactment of the Administration’s lending bill and its neutrality program. Rep. Martin listed 14 “accomplishments under the banner of honest liberalism,” which he said resulted from Republican co-operation “with the real Democrats.” Among them were: Rejection of the lending: bill, scrapping of the neutrality program, tax revision to aid business, social security revision and enactment of the Hatch “clean politics” bill.

Pepper Attacks “Alliance”

The coalition of Republicans and conservative Democrats which was

the target of a sharp attack de-|-

livered by Senator Claude Pepper (D. Fla.), New Dealer, in the closing minutes of the Senate's session Saturday night. Senator Pepper charged the existence of an ‘“unholy alliance” that deliberately sought to hamper the President's program. Senator Josiah 'W. Bailey o. N. C.), a member of the conservative bloc, told the Senate that its rules prohibited him from publicly terming the attack “cowardly and mendacious,” he would call it that in person to Senator Pepper.

Widely known among. Indianapolis clergy and laity, Dr. Dunkel held the pastorate for more than 21 years. His resignation was made known in a letter to the Congregation read immediately after his sermon yesterday. “I have no immediate plans,” Dr. Dunkel said. “I think I shall rest a while. Then perhaps I shall look for another, perhaps smaller church.” Church members called at his home at 3815 N. Delaware St., after services, asking him to reconsider his resignation. Dr. Dunkel said he would continue his sermons at the

mp. church until the Presbytery of In-

dianapolis declares the post vacant. Dr. Dunkel emphasized that he does not intend to retire from the

A British merchant officer was wounded. Showdown Near in Tokyo Tokyo approched a showdown on the Army’s demand for an immediate military alliance of Japan with Germanly and Italy. The Army was believed prepared to force Lieut. Gen. Seishiro Itagahi, War Minister, from his post and replace him with a more vigorous advocate of the alliance. A complete cabinet shake-up . was possible after a meeting tomorrow of the “inner cabinet” of five key Ministers. It was said that if it had not been for the United States denunciation of the trade treaty with Japan and the stronger British attitude in North China that followed, the Army would have been prepared to overthrow the present Cabinet. In Washington, Chairman Key Pittman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee predicted that the United Statés would take even stronger measures. He said in a formal statement that “restoration” of friendly relations between the United States and Japan. is possible, but not probable.

Poles “Demand” Danzig

He predicted that unless Japan begins to observe the rights of American citizens in China, Congress will empower President Roosevelt to take “strong retaliatory measures,” probably boycotts and embargoes. The bickering in Europe between Poland and Danzig grew more bit~ ter today when the Danzig‘Government handed Poland a note rejecting Warsaw demands in a dispute over customs. The note was understood to have characterized the Polish demands as “provocative” and hased on false rumors.- Poland had insisted in a note which was classed in London quarters as an “ultimatum” that Danzig cease interfering with Polish customs officers on the East Prussian frontier. Danzig denied any intention of interfering with the cfficers. In Warsaw yesterday, Marshal Edward Smigly-Rydz, Polish strong man,” described Danzig as “the lung of our economic organization” and said, “we will adjust our actions to those of the opposing side.” When he concluded, a crowd of 100,000 shouted: “We demand Danzig, gts

WASHINGTON, Aug. 7 (U.

Harrington telegraphed State WPA administrators to resume the dismissals, which were halted late in July when it appeared that. the 1940 Work-Relief Act might be amendoa to repeal a provision making mandatory. Congress had No the provision to stop “relief chiseling.” War veterans are exempt. Efforts to repeal the provision, which will result in one-third of WPA’s enrollment being thrust upon local and private relief, failed in the closing minutes of Congress.

worked the District Attorney’s staff far into the nights. Mr. Rogge made a hurried trip to Washington during the week-end to confer with Attorney General Frank Murphy. He returned last night with the announcement that Mr. Murphy had given him “the green light to return honor, justice and decency to Louisiana.” With the indictment of the ailing Leche, the Federal Government has charged two members of the trie umyvirate Huey Long left to perpetuate his dictatorship—Leche and Weiss. Both already have liquidated their political interests. The third, Robert S.-Maestri, is Mayor of New Orleans. When Leche resigned after 39

months in the Governor’s office, he

retired to a Covington “Gold Coast” estate of several hundred acres, which boasted ‘a string of fine horses, a flock of imported Russian caracul sheep and blooded cattle. The fortune of Weiss was reckoned as one of the largest in Louisiana, although he was a windowwasher graduated to a $15 a week shoe salesman when Huey Long be-

gan his political ascendency. Huey .

met him as a night clerk in the hotel Weiss now owns. It was ane other hotel, which he sold to Louisiana State University, that got him into trouble with the Federal Government first. He was indicted three weeks ago for mail fraud in congiection with an alleged sale of the hotel furnishings to the state for $75,000 after the vniversity reportedly already paid or them as a part of the original sale price. It was charged he aldo saddled the university with a $14,196 tax bill he owed on the hotel and used the mails in the process. Before Senator Long's death, Weiss was indicted for criminal evasion of income taxes. The charges against him and 11 others were quasned in what was termed the “Second Louisiana Purchase” but last winter civil charges were
