who will be affected by the actions taken during this next session. There is no need for campaigning until the month of September. Meanwhile, much can be done in a month if the members of Congress really get down to work. One of our great metropolitan newspapers ‘suggests that the questions before Congress are of such importance and complexity that the members cannot take ac-| tion upon them quickly. I think, however, that most of the questions to be brought before them have long been discussed and now simply require decisions on the part of the leaders.

Housing and Prices Are Important lssues

The members of Congress for instance; know the need that ex{sts for housing and must have canvassed various ways to meet

“{it. All they have to decide is

whether the real estate interests or the people are more important. The question of halting inflation and price increases is certainly no new question — it has been going on steadily for months, The complaint made against the manner in which this session was called may be valid, but peole must remember that it will be a challenge to the President and the Democratic party as well as to the Republican party. Gov. Dewey and Gov. Warren are not as yet elected to responsible positions in the federal government, but they are governors of states and the subjects to be discussed in

them in various ways. Hence it is not impossible for them, when

HYDE PARK, July 20—I think few people will deny that it would have been preferable to make the calling of Congress into special session a separate matter of business, that it is a mistake to bring the “poor” members of Congress back

Democratic Party May Benefit by Split

Much more dangerous is the challenfe to the President, for instance, on the civil rights. program, The split within the Democratic party is one that has long existed, but has been kept under cover, I smiled when I read Mr, Farley's remark about Democratic leaders

It is not the people who think only of the party machinery who really bring enthusiasm to a party. It is the people who believe in certain principles, and who work through party machinery, who are the real motivating force. It is the results that are accomplished for the good of the people and
