Booxcsslt Smooliy Deply oo New
Deal Program as Third Year Ends|
{ By NATHAN ROBERTSON
| Associated Press Staff Writer
I WASHINGTON — (AP) — The
close of President TRoosevelt's
third year in the White House to
day found him smoothing over
dents in the New D_eql program
preparatory to facing the voters in
sNovember.
‘While the chtef executive sought
taxes to restore a budget battered
by congress and the fall of AAA,
\aides were swirtly swinging the
$500,000,000 a year farm subsidy
plan into a keystone position oc
cupied by AAA before it was in
validated by the Supreme Court.
The new taxes were designed to
bring the budget back to the con
dition it was before congress vot

rpreme Court outlawed the AAA pro

| Many observers believe history

turning peint of the New Deal.
During the first part of the year.
the spirit of reform was still
dominant. Much mnew legislation
was pressed through congress. But
suddenly the president announced
a “breathing spell,” and the New
Deal devoted much of its attention
to fighting in the courts to pre
serve its measure and consolidate
its ground.

retrench.
The Sureme Court, which had
played little part in the first two
vears of the New Deal, suddenly
swung into action In the third
year. The AAA, NRA and some
less vital xaws were declared un
constitutional.
President Roosevelt met the NRA
decision with a warning that it
would return the nation to the
“horse and buggy” era. There was
unofficial talk of a constitutional
amendment to broaden the federal
government powers. Insttad of
greeting the AAA decision the
same way, he asked and got sub
stitute legislation.
A favorable court decision on the
sale of power under the Tennessee
‘Valley Authority act gook some
of the edge off the growing issue
of the Supreme Court’'s powers
and the constitution.
Congress Slows Down'
As the third year ends, con
gress is' proceeding at a slackened
pace. Two years ago it approved
New Deal measures almost as fast
asg the president submitted them.
Last year, with an even greater
Democratic majority, it moved
slower but still it ground out gi

were times of rats and hairpins,

Putting on a hat in that decade
presents a marked contrast to the
ease with whrch the girl of the
1930's cocks a petite chapeau to

great hat on top of the head, piled
high with hair, it was a painful
procedure to fix it squarely in

Several Cases of Rabies

The annual campalgn for the

streets without this tag is subject
to impoundment in the city dog
pound and the owner must pay
all costs or vaccination and pound‘

During the month, the Depart

Local veterinarians are cooper
