BIT IN THEIR TEETH . The automobile age has been with us so long that many persons do not know or may have forgotten how the old family buggy horse sometimes would take the bit in his teeth and run away. . But anyone who has not had this experience can gain some idea of what it Is like by watching the;, runaway performance of the powerful bipartisan coalition that controls Congress. There is the matter, for instance of the House amendments that left only a feeble remnant of powers in the hands of OPA and crippled most of the administration's stabilization plans. ; ' The congressional majority seems to be doing what the most powerful pressure groups wish it to do. But if that majority thinks it is. serving the interests of persons most likely to be affected by skyrocketing prices, it is dead wrong. If it could hear the comments of many housewives and white-collar workers, it would learn that there is widespread sentiment for restoring rationing and other controls we aready have abandoned. The average individual may not know much about economics, but he is genuinely worried about runaway prices that would make his pay inadequate and nullify his thrift. Reports from the extraordinary caucus of House Democrats reveal, too, how impotent traditional party controls

have become. The conservative

with the Republican wrecking crew dominated this caucus. It insists that everything is peaceful and harmonious. But progressives who have been battling for national safeguards

tell a different story. They contend that party divisions are

growing wiaer. '. -The House, disproving harmony reports, provided a strife

ing example of runaway tendencies when it approved the

amendment-ridden OPA extension bill by a vote of 355 to 42 This was one of the worst legislative defeats the- Truman administration ever has suffered.

let there was no courage House coalition reallv deemed

desirable, why did it not ditch the whole business instead of pretending to extend the. life of OPA? Probably because it i feared public reactions would be adverse to such n frank and

forthright action. But deception in the form of a powerless OPA is more dangerous, because public reaction may not

Wt THILE her message was being rushed to John, Jessie W plunged into a mixture of hope and anxiety. Would itXreach him before the duplicate order from the Army ruined his expedition? Would he trust her judgment? , She did not know how many days had passed, three, four, ; when a return message was brought to her at a gallop. She tore open the note and read: Goodbye, I trust, and go. Standing in the doorway, weak but triumphant, the thought flashed through her. mind: There is no need for anyone to know about this.
