To Find Which Way Wind Blows
WASHINGTON —(NEA)— Les
lie L. Biffle, Democratic secretary
of the Senate, plans to take to the
road again this summer to sample
political opinion at the grass roots,
In years past, Biffle has traveled
on a light truck, more or less dis
gulsed as a farmer. He talks to
El'e.ople he meets on the road and
small towns, to find out how
they feel about things. His sur
veys have been given considerable
weight by President Truman and
the Democratic Party bosses. Bif
fle now figures on getting away
about mid-August, which is as
good & tip as any on when Con
gress might wind up its present
sessiun.
Slight Slip of the Tongue
Rep. Otto E. Passman of Louisi
ana stood in the well of the House
floor the other day and requested
10 days leave of absence, “to at
tend to politics—to official busi
ness.” With a laugh from his col
leagues, the permission was grant
ed unanimously. 'ln the Congress
ional Record it appears that Rep
resentative "'Passman asked for
leave to attend to official business.
Keeps Cool When Others Didn’t
Charles 1. Gragg, just named
chairman of a new sub-council of
economic advisers for New Eng
land, was one of the real mystery
men of the war in Washington.
He was an adviser to Donald Nel
son ®f the War Production Board.
Gragg was the man who thought
up many of the plans for which
others got credit. But he had such
a passion for anonymity that few

[people knew he was around. As
one of his co-workers put it,
“Gragg was about the only calm
man- in Washington, when nearly
everyone else was running around

Mother Nature Gets a Workout
Department of Agriculture sci
entists have been having a lot of
fun this spring . . . In Utah they
have put zippers on big bumblebee
cages, the better to study how ef
fective a family of 40 or 50 bum
blebees can “trip” or pollinize al
falfa blossoms . . . In Pennsyl
vania they have found out how to
increase the flavor of maple syrup
“blends” — yes, they blend
“straight” maple syrup, too—by
boiling the mixtures for two hours
at 250 degrees—then adding water
.« . In Alabama they have an
nounced discovery of a new can
dy—sweet potato brittle, which
they say is good . . . And in 47 of
these United States and in Alaska
they have registered 1460 artificial
breeding associations. Enrolled in
these associations are 2,827,530
cows—about one in nine—which
will be artificially bred this year.
Nevada, be it known, is the only
state in the Union which has no
cows or bulls registered for artifi
cial breeding. ;
New Health Plan Proposed
Newest hedlth plan is a proposal
that the U. S. government finance
grants or loans to co-operatives
which would establish prepaid
medical care systems and clinics
in rural areas. Sen. Hubert Hum
phrey of Minnesota has introduced
a bill to. have Congress authorize
the loans. Ex-Congressman Jerry
Voorhis of California, now lobbyist
for the Co-operative League of
America, says it would cost more
than $5,000,000 the first year,
with a miximum of $25,000,000
later on.
Differ on Social Security
Benefits . o
Most important point of differ
ence between Senate and House on
new social security legislation is
the formula for paying enlarged
benefits. Senate Finance Commit
tee’s formula is 50 per cent of the
first SIOO of average monthly
wage, plus 15 per cent of the next
$l5O. This would make Senate
maximum $72.50 a month, for
workers whose pay had averaged
$3,000 or more per year. Senate
minimum would be S2O a month
for people who averaged $35 a
month or less during their work
ing years. For those who averaged
over $35 a month wages, minimum
would be $25 a month pension.
The House minimum would be
$25 a month flat. House maximum
would be 50 per cent of the first
SIOO a month, plus 10 per cent of
the next s2oo—for people whose
average annual wages were $3600
a year or more—or S7O a month
base pension. To this would be
added one-half of one per cent of
this base pension. This would
figure out to $73.50 a month for
anyone with 10 years’ coverage
or SB4 a month for anyone with
40 years’ coverage.
U. 8. Construction Studied
by British
A team of 17 British building
contractors, foremen and trades
unionists, brought to the United
States to study American construc
tion methods, have now returned
home and filed their reports. They
found U. S. building trade wages
four times as high as in Britain,
output per man twice as high. Two
million U. S. construction work
ers have built 3,500,000 lousing
units since the way, while 1,000,000
British workers have completed
only 800,000 units.
These are some of the reeasons
given by the British for greater
American production: “There are
more contractors than contracts
. . « Having secured a job in a
highly competitive industry, the
American worker is prepared to
make a real effort to retain it.” As

LUCKY NUMBER—The Statue
of Liberty is the most wonderful
thing in America—better than
television — says 12-year-old
Dace Epermanis. The blonde,
pig-tailed Latvian girl is the
150,000 th Displaced Person to
enter the United States and will
be the guest of honor at “I Am
an American Day” ceremonies
at Washington’s Sesquicentennial
this month.
the London Daily Mirror put it,
“It’s fear of getting the sack.”
In Britain, private contractors
can build only on house in five,
Government controls the rest, be
cause of 10 years of-short supply
in building materials and labor.
Hope to Bust Wage Floor
In U. S. Contracts
There’s a new move on to try to
force repeal of the Walsh-Healy
act. This is the law which re
quires the secretary of labor to set
prevailing minimum wage rates in
all business establishments work
ing on government contracts.
Though 75 cents an hour is now
the general minimum wage rate,
under Walsh-Healey act minimum
rates in plants working on govern
ment contracts have been set as
high as $1.23 an hour for the steel
industry,
“Modern Industry,” a trade mag
azine, is launching the campaign
for repeeal of the law, Recent suc
cesses of anti-New Dealers in pre
venting repeal of the Taft-Hartley
law and in stopping President Tru
man’s plan to reorganize National
Labor Relations Counsel Robert N.
Denham out of his independent
position have encouraged the be
lief that repeal of the Walsh-Healy
act could also be put over.
Famed British
Marshal Dies
LONDON, May 25~(AP)—Vis
count Wavell, the one-eyed Bri
tish Field Marshall who crushed
Italian armies in Africa ten years
ago, died yesterday.
The veteran soldier, who also
served as Viceroy of India in the
turbulent period after the war,
underwent an abdominal operation
on May 5, his 67th birthday. He
suffered a relapse Sunday.
A daring strategist who believed
in taking calculated risks, Archi
bald Percival Wavell won the first
substantial victories for Britain in
the last war. He turned the tide,
temporarily at least, in 1940 and
1941 and inspired the Empire with
hope in a time of deep depression,
