PAGE EIGHT PROVO (UTAH) EVENING HERALD, v-THURSDAY, APRIL 28, 1938 SECTION TWO Washington Merry-Go-Round (Continued from Page One) speech severely criticizing it, and calling on the congressional liberals to take the initiative by launching a recovery program of their own. For some unexplained reason the address never was delivered. Bob continued to go down the line for the Administration on legislative issues, giving particularly valuable help in the senate fight over the reorganization bill. Despite this, neither he nor any of the other congressional liberals were consulted by Roosevelt when he finaly started to formulate a new spending plan. I NEW DEAL WORRY Some of the brass hat journalists will tell you that th inner group is not worried over the incipient third party movement.

But that is not the case. There is very genuine worry, chiefly over the possibility that liberal forces might split just at a time when the conservatives are brushing aside traditional party lines and uniting, in a common drive to' oppose anything remotely resembling progressives. DYNAMIC "Jonah Has Side-Splitting Experience The British Jonah ship, City of Salisbury, met the ultimate in hard luck when it split in two after going aground recently on an underwater reef in Boston Harbor. The photo above shows how one half, the bow, broke off and sank, leaving the stern afloat. The vessel's live cargo of snakes, tropical birds and three bears, as well as her crew, 'were rescued.

But the Department of Immigration has a problem on its of the crew are Mohammedans and must be furnished food appropriate to their castes. Mapleton News BY FERN JENSEN New Dealers blame Phil as chief instigator of the open clash with the White House. Phil is more impetuous, more spectacular than 3ob. Also, he chafes at the confines of one State, is eager for a wider sphere of action. This does not mean that Phil would like to park himself in a soft senate seat.

He would probably have little difficulty in defeating the lumbering Democratic incumbent, F. Ryan Duffy, who is up for election this year. But to Phil the laborious tempo and pontifical atmosphere of the senate are too oppressive. Also, he is astute enough to realize that if he is to play a national role he must control a state organization. And as governor he holds the whip hand in a manner that would be impossible if he were ensconced on Capitol Hill.

So while outwardly Phil is still deliberating whether he will seek another term as governor, privately his mind is fully made up. He R-ill run again. Naturally Phil's aggressive blasts against the White House and the big Progressive conference won't hurt him and his party in Wisconsin. If these trial balloons lead to something more than brave talk, then so much the better as far as the young governor is concerned. ff MERRY-GO-ROUND i Asked by a colleague what he was going to do about Senator Harry Byrd's reference to him as a "gorilla," Representative Maury Maverick replied: "I'm going over to Virginia and organize 'Gorilla Clubs' whose purpose will be to wring the necks of Byrds." Expert adviser to Chairman Pat Harrison of the senate finance committee in the framing of the tax bill was little Lovell H.

For several years Parker has been on the payroll of the Washington Board of Trade in addition to drawing down a fat federal salary from a congressional joint committee on taxation Republican insiders are boasting privately that the campaign of Representative Mark Wilcox against Senator Claude Pepper, ardent Florida new dealer, is being strongly backed ty GOP votes and money. One authority is claiming that party backers have thrown more than $50,000 into the fight to replace Pepper with Wilcox, an anti- Administration Democrat.

of Ulen Construction company of Lebanon, Indiana, is returning to his Chicago offices today. Mr. Ulen yesterday conferred with Mayor Mark Anderson and other city officials.
