Odds and Ends SAFETY FIRST SLOGAN let an accident strike DON'T you out. CONGRESS HOLDS BACK ROOSEVELT TIDE session of ConThe present to be fooling the exgress as badly as the 1934 perts almost world series fooled the sports writers. Drawing analogies between politics a and baseball may be in -either to slightly politics, or to baseball, as you choose- but the ghost of a parallel is there. 1934 series was going to The be a walk-away for the Tigers. They determination, had the the class, what's vim, it; the the result was all charted in advance.

The only thing that went wrong was that nothing hapthe field the way it pened on had been doped to happen, and when the dust had settled the Cardinals had the triumph. And in politics? Well, this the session in which the adwas ministration enjoyed a record majority. The president's popularity was at its peakist Congress would give him about what he wanted, and no more. His re-election in 1936 was a foregone conclusion, and to go against him in this session would be a comparatively painless way of committing political suicide. So what happened? Well, the big work-relief bill aroused much more opposition than anyone had expected.

The Senate kicked over the traces on the World Court. The whole legislative machinery got out of geartemporarily, at least. Townsend plan and bonus bill took on a new aspect. To quote a recent United States dispatch: "The confusion which has beapparent in Democratic ranks has heartened Repubilcans to such extent that some of the more optimistic are talking now of 1936 instead of 1940. Boiling all this down, we can discover a tide or a combination of tides, setting in directions not foreseen two months ago.

The congressmen have been nearing home- about old age pensions, about the bonus, about the 30-hour week, about the World Court, about heaven only knows what else; and the voice from home seems to be a bit louder than the voice from the White House. What, then, can we expect? Probably this: That the administration will presently get its first really big We shall discover, then, whether the upsurge of popular discontent which expressed itself in the last two elections has reached highwater mark or is still rising; whether this administration's left-of-center course is to be followed docilely or only after a stiff fight. Mr. Roosevelt has never been called on for higher qualities of leadership than will be required of him in the immediate future. -B.

SCHMELING TO START TRAINING FRIDAY HAMBURG, GERMANY, Feb. 11. (U.P.) -Max Schmeling will begin training Friday for his bout here March 10 with Steve Hamas, confident he will ship the American contender and win a crack at Max Baer. On a visit here to inspect the new Hanseatic Hall where he will attempt to reverse a previous victory scored by Hamas, the black Uhlan said he would reach the peak of physical condition with little difficulty.

Promoter Walter Rothenburg announced he had been negotiating with Ancil Hoffman, Baer's manager, since August relative to staging a championship fight, probably at Vienna if Schmeling whips Hamas. Hoffman has not answered an offer of $175,000 to box Schmeling, Rothenburg revealed, but he has not abandoned hope. "If Hoffman fails to answer me, I will go to the United States immediately after the Schmeling-Hamas fight and bring Baer back myself," Rothenburg said.

14 Broadway Styles In Ladies' Dresses, Hats Brought To Mount Carmel A STYLE CENTER FOR SMART WOMEN MAJOR ISSUES UP THIS WEEK BEFORE SENATE By Morey J. Potter (United Press Staff Correspondent) Feb. l1. (U.P.) -Constitution revision, party ing and "house cleaning" will pe major considerations at this week's sessions of the State Senate. opening at 9 P.

M. today. Public hearings on revision plans will be resumed tomorrow noon by the Senate Committee on Constitutional Changes, of which G. Mason Owlett, Tioga, is chairman. Meeting at the same time.

Senator Charles W. Staudenmeier's Judiciary Special Committee will consider its report on the Prince resolution asking the resignation Senator John J. McClure, convicted in 1933 in the Delaware County liquor conspiracy cases which were voided by repeal of the 18th Amendment. The resolution, introduced last week by Senator Leon C. Prince, Cumberland, is expected to be reported out favorably for a vote on the floor of the Senate.

Prince, McClure and a majority of the committeemen are Republicans. McClure is a member of the committee. The Senate "anti-party raiding" bill, of which John W. Howell, Lackawanna, and George W. Woodward, Philadelphia, are co-authors, is one of the 11 bills on the Senate third-reading calendar for final action tonight.

Designed originally to prevent persons seeking office being candidates for than one political party nomination, except candidates for Judge of a Court of Record, the bill was amended in committee to include the judiciary. That action is expected to be rescinded. Setting a precedent in Senate procedure, the Executive Nominations Committee headed by James J. Coyne has scheduled for this week a public hearing on Gov. George H.

Earle's appointment to the Milk Control Board. They are: Charles T. Carpenter, Chester; Paul O. Sunday, Carlisle, and A. C.

Marburger, Evans City. Members of the Senate and "outside interests" were said to have urged the hearing. Conjecture was current that the committee would withhold favorable report on the Governor's appointment of Richard J. Beamish, former Secretary of the Commonwealth, to the Chairmanship of the Workmen's Compensation Board. A roll call on the Beamish appointment would give the first test of Senate Republican strength since the opening of the session.

Disregarding independent leanings, the upper chamber seats 19 Democrats and 31 Republicans. The proposal of Senator Alonzo S. Batchelor, Beaver, to "rip out" the State Emergency Relief Board end relegate its functions to the Department of Welfare is due for consideration tonight. Opinion 1 is divided on whether it will be passed finally on third reading or returned to committee. The Senate hearing at 2 P.

M. tomorrow on the two plans for constitutional revision will be the second of series. At the first hearing last Wednesday, Attorney General Charles J. Margiotti was the principal witness. He defended the administration proposal, spon-! sored by Rep.

Frank W. Ruth, Berks, and passed by the House. The committee is weighing its virtues against those of the Woodward bill in the Senate apparently as the Republican pian for revising the 61-year-old constitution. LOUIS GASPERETTI SLIGHTLY IMPROVED Louis Gasperetti, of 226 Girard street, Exchange, who submitted to a kidney operation last Monday at the Pennsylvania Hospital in Philadelphia, is reported as slightly improved this morning. His brother-in-law, Zopito Fabrizio, with whom Gasperetti makes his home, visited him yesterday the hospital.

His sister, Mrs. Fabrizio, will remain in the Quaker City until the crisis is passed. Gasperetti, well known in the community, is a shoe and boot repairer. SAMUEL CHRIST DIES IN HOSPITAL Samuel Christ, 52, of 536 north Second street, admitted to the Ashland State Hospital on February 6, died yesterday morning at 10:45 o'clock.
