MONTANA STANDARD, BUTTE. SUNDAY MORNING, JANUARY 29, 1933. Washington Is Getting Interesting Again By WILL ROGERS Well, all I know is just what I read In the papern. That Huey Long episode in our history like to took up as much of our political historical space as anything George Washington did. Huey made the boys a few preliminary remarks that lasted well into the latter part of January.

Huey had it in for Carter Glass. Now if you Glass, and I have had that pdlvilege for several years, he is a very high class, rather of the old'school southern gentleman, but in addition to being a gentleman he has a tremendous amount of ability. Along banking and financial lines he is just about the most able man in either party in Washington. When they get all through argueing over "Who is the Father of the Federal Reserve Act" why they will really find the sire to lie none other than Carter Glass. Now evidentally he had a very sound banking bill.

Certainly knows what one should be. Then right in the midst of it to hear somebody crashing right through the Louisiana cane breaks with an arm load of adjectives that it would take a good strong voiced man a month to dispose of. Why naturally that was dumbfounding to the sensibilities of a man of the Carter Glass type. But you can't blame Huey near as much as you can blame the system that allows a prolonged thing like that. It's not allowed in the House of Representatives, so I was a hoping that Huey might be the means of getting a rule like that changed.

I'll bet you another one or two of those "Filibusters" break out before this session is over. This Huey Long'spree of consanants and vowels that lie excelled in, why It's not the first one in the Senate by any means. Somebody is always trying to talk a bill to death in there. But Huey killed the bill and wounded the Senate. Well, poor Mr.

Hoover, they passed the Philippine freedom over his head. He sends suggestions up to the law makers (no doubt some of them splendid), but they don't pay any more attention to it than they do an add over the radio. It's a very humiliating position for a fine man like a President of our United States to be in. Here he Is President but he "Aint." Roosevelt is President but he can't yet. Which brings me right back to my pet belief, and that is that I'll bet you if Mr.

Hoover had it to do over again he would have resigned after election and dumped the thing right into the hands the people voted to handle It. It would have been a grand exit. He would have gone out with more sympathy, and incidentally put the Democrats in hole. All they could have done was say, "Well, we was going to save the Country, but you brought it on us so quick that we havent quite got our minds made up how to do it yet." You see if the President had done that, why naturally his example would have had to be followed by enough other lame ducks that this session would have been Democratic overwhelmingly. Then you wouldent have-to wait till after March 4 for a new session to be called, and then see what they will do.

We would have known by now. But 'that's all old-time stuff. I guess he knew what he was doing better than some comedian. But these last four weeks is going to be the hardest. I got a nice letter from Pat Hurley the other day.

Hadent heard from Pat since the election, and was mighty glad to get the letter, and some of the "Local" news. Chances are Pat will stay in Washington. He has lots of financial interests there, and then he will want to be where he am make faces at the Democrats. It may be more profitable and more satisfying to belong to the party that's In, but its certainly more amusing to belong to the party that's out. Pat's likable, and humorous, and can laugh now, where he couldent before.

I hear that Amon G. Carter, of Fort Worth, Texas, owner of the biggest newspaper in the Southwest, will take Hurley's place in the Cabinet. Carter, from all I cnn gather from the "Inside," will be the man that will draw that splendid cabinet plum. Amon will make 'em a mighty fine man. Ho is mighty well liked by all the Democrats, and 50 per cent of the Republicans.

(Well, I will say a dozen anyway). He would handle our army mighty well in peace, and put us on a mighty pretty war if the occasion arose. So while all the other cabinet positions are more or; less in the air from what we can hear, why it's cinched that Carter will succeed Hurley, who, by the Wf, is a very good friend of his. Carter has practically retired from active m'anagnierit' of his paper, but sometimes has it sent to New York or Washington to read. He is by far Texas' most'jpubHc- spirlted man.

So with Garner daily inquiring as'to the health of our President, and Carter at the head of our Military hordes, why Texas will have received her share of the spoils of the late political war. All his old fi'lcnds In Texas (of which I almost consider myself a native of), we all hope this new honor will not make him break an old custom of years', and that was to always be in the Capital, Austin, on nil Furgeson inaugurations. This Carter cabinet news hasent been generally broadcast, 'but those who know, say It's "in the bag." Well, it's about time to write something about the debts ngaln and get everybody all stirred up. I like to throw 'em a little piece of meat every once In a while and Just sit back nnd hear 'em growl. We got Americans thnt take the debts ns serious as a postmaster diet the last election.

I will write a little "Gag" In a day or two and stir 'em up again. Yours; Will. (Copyright, 1033. by the McNaught Syndicate, Inc.) CAMP FIRE CiKLf CALENDAR. Sunday, 1:30 p.

I've been reading pages in the newspapers lately to sec if Ihe lady who tells you how to make an umbrella stand out of your broken teacups, would print a piece on how to use your broken New Year's Resolutions. Over to our house you can't move without stepping on a broken Resolution, nnd fast ns I sweep one up and throw it into the ash can. Bang! goes another as some new member of the family weakens. Funny how poor the wearing- quality is on these modern New Year's lesolutlons. The good old- fashioned homc-mnde Resolutions was a whole lot stronger, and no matter how great the strain put upon 'em, frequently held up for aa much as six weeks and looked ns good as new even after a coupia washings, But the ones they make nowadays don't seem to stand up nt all.

In tact they don't even lay Just plain drop nnd break at tho least pressure. Pa wut, the first of us to let go He busted his New Year's Resolution in Ihe garage, and ns the garage has a concrete floor, well the glass 'of the bottle punctured al four times on the flivver. It a person must let a Resolution slip they ought al least be careful where they do it. A busted Resolution Is tike Humpty can't be put together again, not by all the King's Horses and all Ihe King's Men. But the French Menders' Ass.

might be able to do something nbout It, they cer- alnly done a lovely job on Pa's -weed overcoat after our cow ate lapsl off of it while pa was nllking one frosty morning. Served right I told him, for wearing Heather tweeds! Sister Anne says there's one lovely about New Year's Resolutions: after you've busted 'em good and plenty, nobody expects you to make another set for a whole year. Junior had the original Idea ol making New Year's Resolution to br. late for school, to play hookey, to smash windows and cat nil the Jum tw could. But even that kind of a Resolution Is breakable on account Pa broke his Resolution not to lick Junior ngaln with the result Junior has been good as gold since the second Inst.

Aunt Enta Resolved make no New Year's Resolutions. Stic told me that Just ordlnnry everyday Good Resolutions suited her better than the New Year's Kind, because nobody know about 'cm, sometimes not even oneself. My Mother-in-law Resolved thn she'd been visiting us long cnougl and would go home. But do you think she could keep that Resolution? Say It slipped right out ol her hand. And when I kind ol hinted rude or direct but merely by asking whnt train she was taking and when should order the expressman to call and etcetera claimed she'd meant to go next Jnn.

I think Sister Anne's young mar must of resolved never to buy htm- c'lf mcnl again, and from Ihe size of my grocery bill last week It looks Ike he's the only one who's kept ns resolution. OrnnduiA Resolved lo go oil reducing diet as soon ns the holidays vns over. But last night I heard nn awful crash after everybody had gone to bed, nnd I (nought. Oh well, here goes another Resolution, because I rentlzed the sound vvns the bunging of the icebox door. 1 don't claim to know whnt goes on the in 'the minds of our animals icre on lhc farm, but I'm wiping xj bet they make New Year's Resolutions the same ns the rest ol us, How do we know but that the cow resolves to lay off chewing, the cat lo stay in nights, the gont to diet nnd the horse to say neigh neigh when tempted by whatever tempts horses? How do we know? We don't, and who cures? Who cares for Rcsolullons cxccpl on the day they are made? The tiny we think 'cm up we get big ktcl out of 'cm, like hot bread right of the oven.

The same bread threi days old nin't so hot. And by tin time a resolution linn cooled off 1 breaks ns cnsy as those Xmns tree ornaments we put nwny so cnrefull; after holidays. Tha height of optl mlsm. It seems to mo, Is saving tre ornaments for next year. 'Hie only things less likely to be Intact by DC comber are the swell Resolves wi hang on our fnmily tree Now Year's Dny.
