.. Editor's Note?Senator Rey-

nolds' column for this week waswritten at John Hopkins' hospi-

tal, Baltimore, where the Sen-ator is -undergoing treatmentto find the cause of trouble af-fecting his hearing.

The legislative snarls of thefirst week of the special session ofCongress indicate that membersof both Houses have benefittedfrom their own surveys of condi-tions "back home" and are deter-mined to see that new legislationis in accord with national needs.

This is reflectel in the growingpressure for tax relief for busi-ness, particularly small businessesthat find it difficult to compete

with monopolies; in the desire to

draft a farm program that isworkable and not just designed tosatisfy the demand that some-thing be done, and in the effortto avoid new government boardsand commissions.

Aside from farm legislation, thetax situation is one of the mostimportant problems confronting

Congress. It is an open secretthat the Congressional Commit-tees are daily finding evidencethat taxes are definitely retard-ing full business and industrialrecovery and are determined tobring in a bill for tax revisionthat will be more equitable thanthe existing law. If the pressurefor action continues, it may comeat the special session, although

the program calls for tax legisla-tion at the regular session.

As soon as the farm bill is re-ported, probably by the time thiscolumn is printed, every effort tospeed it along will be made in

both Houses. It now seems cer-tain that the members of Con-gress . have a better picture offarm needs and are hopeful thatthey can be met through a well-planned law that will stand thetest of time.

What will be ddne about thewage and hour bill is problemat-ic. The "behind the scenes" ac-tivities in the House, where themeasure is a live issue, indicatethat the bill finally reported willbe more favorahle to the Southand free from too drastic Federalcontrol. Some believe that thelaw should set standards«for wa-ges and hours, leaving it to the

Justice Department to enforce,

rather than to set-up elaborateand separate enforcement ma-chinery.

FamiliarBoogy?Say, havenll seen that

<*ee of yours some place else?Woogy?Nbpe, It's never been

.nywhifre fc&t where it is n6w.

Another important legislativeprogram is the Federal reorgan-

ization bill. It may prove to beone of the real controversialmeasures to be handled during

the special session. At the mo-ment it seems certain that theCongress will retain full controlof independent offices and com-missions now responsible to thelegislative branch of the govern-ment. However, much ground-work must be done before any

reorganization bill is finally actedupon.

To again mention -farm legisla-tion, there is much hope thatearly enactment of a programfor agriculture will have a bene-ficial effect on business and in-dustry, certainly from the stand-point of stimulating buying. Itis highly important that businessand industry have a better idea

of available markets and thatthose who comprise the marketsbe better able to buy. Thus thefarmer must have an idea of whathe will get for his products, withsome assurance that they can besold, before he can maintain hisstatus in what business and in-dustry terms as "markets."

To put it another way, theCongress seems definitely of themind that the farmer is entitledto a better share of the "largerlife" as we term our economicprogress, and that the prosperityof agriculture is an essential basefor improved conditions in allspheres of our economic life.

"WOMANLESS WEDDING"HERE PROVES SUCCESS

The "Womanless Wedding" pre-

sented Friday evening by the Par-

ent-Teacher Association, underthe direction of Mrs. E. P. Mc-Neer, was a decided, success, bothfrom a standpoint of entertain-ment and financially.

Members of the association aredeeply grateful to the men of thetown for their splendid coopera-

tion in presenting the play.
