THE FLETCHER RAYBURN BILLS
la most of the talk and printed statements about
proposed control of stock exchanges by the government
one important subject has been overlooked. That sub-
ject is the proposed political control over business both
large and small. Sometime ago the government appoint-
ed two important committees to aid reemployment. One
committee was made up of leaders of durable goods in-
dustries which included such activities as steel machin-
ery locomotives etc. The other committee pertains to
consumers goods such as foods clothing drugs etc.
Both committees agree that the bulk of unemployment is
in the durable goods field.
The leaders in this so called “heavy goods” industry
over the weekend published a statement that they are try-
ing to aid the government in restoring work and reviving
private spending. However they are being blocked in
this effort by the presence of law’s w’hich check the flow
of money and credit and by proposed bills such as the
Fletcher Rayburn bills which would go even further in
that direction. The Fletcher Rayburn bills have been re-
ported out in the Senate and are about to be reported in
the House. The representatives of industry have stated
that they are in accord with the objective of President
Roosevelt in correcting speculative abuses but they be-
lieve these objectives should and can be realized without
further regulation of private business and without throt-
tling the flow of private capital into private business.
The Fletcher Rayburn bills as now worded still con-
tain provisions which would seriously interfere with oper-
ation of private business and place it under far reaching
regulation by a government commission. These bills
would impose such regulations upon every small enter-
prise throughout the country which might wish to have
its securities traded in through a dealer to any extent in
any community no matter how small or how far removed
from the great speculative centers. The durable goods
committee is acting in a non-partisan manner and makes
its appeal to the merchants jobbers manufacturers—
both small and large—investors and everyone interested
in furthering business recovery. It has proposed prac-
tical amendments both to the Fletcher Rayburn bills and
to the Securities Act of 1933 in order to aid reemploy-
ment and recovery.
The committee in its appeal to the public and to
Congress urges that every individual give immediate at-
tention to the effect of these matters and take such action
as will insure the registering of opinion in such manner as
may be considered most effective.
ON THE WAY UP
One ol the brightest spots in the business picture
right now is being contributed by the department stores.
During March there was a record-breaking 44 per cent
gain in the nation’s department store sales and there are
excellent reasons for believing that this reflects a sub-
stantial rise in the general level of prosperity.
The gain is coming hand in hand with a rise in na-
tional income. Figures compiled by the American Federa-
tion of Labor show that the workers’ total income has
risen 41 per cent in the past year—from $1784000000
in March 1933 to $2520000000 in March 1934.
These f’gures indicate pretty conclusively that the
nation is rapidly gaining its health. People have more
money to spend and they are spending it. The industrial
pump is getting primed at last; the pickup ought to go
forward now rapidly.

As a minority leader In the house
Gamer learned a lot of inside strat-
egy. Later as speaker he added to
his bag of parliamentary tricks.
The result is he sita constantly
with the administration senate lead- I
ers— particularly when some feared
piece of legislation la marked for
slaughter. Senate reporters attest he
knows the legislative future better
than most members who circulate
freely in executive committee meet-
ings.
In the chair Garner gives the sen-
ate an occasional touch of his old
house days. He gavels through legis-
lation so fast the floor doesn't know
what It’s all about. He can't try U
often because senate rules are so
elastic that the opposition can get
reconsideration when it wakes up.
But he does it very often Just to
keep in trim.
Garner ha« done one big thuig

taken u out of the Washington^

ule which has a 9:30 bedtime. An.1

faithful secretary does her best to

NEW YORK
By James McMulliu
lT1LITIES—Now that the hub-
bub about the Lehman utility bills
is over New York utilities are pinch-
log themselves to see whether they
are still all in one piece. Some-
what to their surprise they find
i hey are.
They still don't like the Lehman
laws but expert analysis interprets
mem as Having uwit
wite They expect to pay through
the noee for the Public Service
Commiasion’a new privilege of as-
sessing the costs of investigation
against the utilities investigated
rfui the amount Involved will be
annoying rather than ruinous.
Tlie bugaboo of municipal own-
ership is less frightening at close
range than it was at a distance.
After all municipalities still have
to win popular referenda before
mey can go into the power busi-
ness. Any town that tries It will
ilnd a battle on Its hands. The
utilities were driven out of their
front trenches but their second line
cf defense is very strong.
• • •
CONTEST— The only Lehman
measure likely to produce a legal
contest is the one which authorises
the Public Service Commission to
order a temporary rate reduction
to a 5 per cent return. If the Com-
mission uses this power several
groups are prepared to bring Im-
mediate suit agalpst the state m
i he federals courts for confiscation
without due process of law.
What'a more—despite the Su-
preme Courts pro-New Deal decis-
ions—they are optimistic about the
outcome. They point out that the
Supreme Court laid stress on the
emergency as a Justification for the
Minnesota mortgage and New York
milk decisions and contend that in
their case it’s not an emergency’
question but a matter of perman-
i cnt principle.
• • •
INVESTIGATION—Now that tne
Thayer disclosures have served their
purpose of greasing the ways for the
Lehman program you can expect
to see the much-heralded Thayer
investigation quietly peter out. The
investigating committee would be
only too happy to drop the subject
and it's understood here that neith-
er Lehman nor Macy will press for
a showdown.
Republican Sen. George Fearon
gets inside credit for the very broad
character o fthe resolution demand-
ing a general investigation. It was
he who insisted that lobbies of all
kinds should be Included. The dem-
ocrats were afraid to say him nay
for fear they would be charged with
obstrcction.
The net result Is that neither
party will be over-zealous about
washing the others dirty linen for
fear oI exposing its own. A gentle-
man's agreement is In prospect to
the effect that there are many
things the public needn't know. The
most aggressive counsel would have
trouble making headway under
those circumstances
• • •
HARMONY—With an election m
the offing New York State Republi-
cans are beginning to appreciate the
virtues oi party harmony. There are
signs that the Macy-old-guacd riit
is likely to be healed on a com-
promise basis. Macy will oioba'Jly
agree to share his authority with an
executive committee representing
ail the important party elements.
In return he will be left undis-
turbed in his job and allowed to play
around with the utility Issue.
A significant straw was Macy s
change of tactics in winning the
support of republican legislators to
the Lehman utility measures. He
abandoned his customary thr<*ct of
taking his case to the newspapers
if the boys wouldn’t plav and
substituted sweet reason lnst<ad. It
worked.
The main back-stage concern now
of party powers is to find a candi-
date for governor who is acceptable
both to Macy and the up-staters
That would rule out Fearon and
possibly Wadsworth also. It may
make Macy the nominee
• • •
STRATEGY—Several influential
New York City republicans want to
center this falls state campaign on
the Tammany issue and leave FDR
'and his policies out of it as far as
possible. They think the president L
still too popular to be a good tar-
get. Gov. Lehman would be repre-
sented as a nice fellow but helpless
to control the Tammany-doir.inatec
democrats in the legislature.
Of course there are many repub-
licans who thirst for a chance to as-
sault the New Deal. The authors of
the state party platform will have
a lot of fun trying to please every-
body.
• • •
TAMMANY—The Tammany sit-
uation is shaping toward rule by a
triumvirate. Curry will be officially
out but its likely that on* of th«
triumvirs will be a loyal buddy of
the ex-boss. Farley will have
nothing to do with organisation offi-
cially but you can paste It in your
hat that he'll get along all right
with the new leadership.
• • •
CUBA—Mendiets’s abrupt turn
to the left was a shock to tel*
Wall Streeters who supported him
for the presidency. Such ingrati-
tude! But the Informed among them
privately admit that if their sup-
port had been less moral and more
material it would have 1 en differ-
ent. They see his move as a desper-
ate attempt at self-preservation.
Whether he succeeds or not It looxs
as If most American firms can kiss
their Cuban Investments good-bye.
• • •
BORROWERS—New York learns
that a couple of Latin countries
whose bonds are In default will try
to wangle loans out of the Export-
Import bank They aren't barred by
the Johnson bill because they don’t
owe money to the government. But
listen for the bleats of the bond-
holders If the bank lends an at-
tentive ear for the sake of trade.

DEAL—Industrial leaders are
watching secretly the big fight go-
ing on between General Electric
and the British Associated Electrical
Industries Ltd. for the prise now

ent International General Electric

"I hate you." she said slowly In
a voice that waa too quiet "1
shall never stop bating you. My
mother hated yon. Any woman
who knows you will hate you be
cause you are cruel and merciless
It you ever so much as try to lay
your band on mine I will leave you

He tried to laugh bat the laugt
was a failure. *T imagine I shall

muttered wltb a poor Imitation ol

echo of hla daughter's eoice as she
gave him her ultimatum and ber

“They’re out?" Field questioned

"Yea. The wife if dead. The
baby perhaps will live; it is not

"AH for tonight." Field heard
