Republicans Have a Majority
As Housemates of a Democrat
By the Associated Press.
Republicans outnumber the Demo
crats in one congressional establish
ment.
Three of four Representatives who
have taken a house together fly the
banner of the G. O. P.
Representative J. Joseph Smith of
Waterbury, Conn., the lone Democrat,
said today that living with three po
litical opponents doesn't intimidate
him.
"I keep them deflated," the 33
year-old lawyer explained.
His three Republican housemates
are Representative Joseph W. Martin,
jr., of North Attleboro, Mass., Eastern
campaign manager for Alf M. Landon
last year; Representative Walter G.
Andrews of Buffalo, N. Y., and Rep
resentative W. Sterling Cole of Bath,
N. Y.
Smith, Martin and Andrews are

dren remained at home this term.
"I'm the chaperon,” Cole laughed.
He is 53 years old.
Martin, 52, is enthusiastic about
their venture in householding. He's
lived in clubs most of the 13 years
he's been in Washington.
"We have a maid and a cook to
take care of us, and it's very home
like.” he said.
Andrews. 47, is business manager
of the attractive house. Each Rep
resentative has a bed room and they
use the living and dining rooms jointly.

BAPTISTS TABLE
VIEWSONM
Economics Resolutions Also
Laid Over Following
Sharp Debate.
By the Aiiocltted Preia.
NEW ORLEANS. May li—The
Southern Baptist convention tabled
today, after vigorous debate, resolu
tions concerning economics and labor
drafted by a group of younger pastors.
These sought to pledge the conven
tion to a change of ‘‘our modem indus
trial structure from a competitive to
a co-operative state,” to recognise “the
growing importance of the labor move
ment,” and to favor “definite regula
tion" of child labor in industry.
The resolutions were drawn by Rev.
Charles R. Bell, 29-year-old pastor of
the Parker Memorial Baptist Church
of Anniston, Ala., and supporters led
by Rev. J. A. Simpson, New Orleans;
Rev. R. H. Satterfield, Wilmington;
N. C., and James Anderson, assistant
to Mr. Bell.
The group formed itself after the
Anniston pastor in a speech last night
termed “trivial” the report of the
convention's Social Service Commis
sion which condemned mob violence,
aggressive war, traffic in intoxicating
liquor and lax marriage statutes.
Their draft, after a reading before
the convention, was referred to the
Resolutions Committee. After partial
revision, the resolutions were presented
to the eighty-second annual session
for a vote.
Anti-War Wording Passed.
The 4.000 delegates from Baptist
churches in 18 States approved the
revised wording of one resolution on
international relationships, calling for
a wrarless world as "the Christian
ideal." The original draft condemned
"all war" and approved refusal to par
ticipate in war.
The convention tabled a revised
resolution on economics declaring
"co-operation and not competition is
the Christian ideal.”
Concerning labor and agriculture it
approved a revised resolution deplor
ing "economic injustice or industrial
inhumanity,” and tabled one indors
ing "understanding and co-operation”

The convention approved a reso
lution deploring “un-Christian prac
tices" in racial relationships.
Dr. A. J. Barton, Wilmington, N. C.,
chairman of the Social Service Com
mission, who urged tabling of the con
troversial questions, asserted that at
previous meetings the Southern Bap
tists had taken "the most advanced
positions on industrial relationships
of any religious body in America.”
Seek "Humanities” Stand.
Dr. Dodd asserted the Resolutions
Committee sought "to let the world
know we stand on the srde of the
humanities."
Told hy Rev. R. C. Howard of Okla
homa City that four babies had died
in a hospital in Oklahoma because
their mothers used tobacco, the con
vention branded smoking as "un
Christian and unhealthy.”
Mr. Howard on the floor described
“smoking, spitting and dipping” as
setting a bad example.
"A man ought to look like a Chris
tian, act like a Christian, and smell
like a Christian,” he said, "and he
don't want any cigarette-smoking sis
ters either.”
'We accept the fundamental prin
ciple that our emancipation from
many of our social, economic and
spiritual problems lies in changing
our modern industrial structure from
a competitive to a co-operative
state,” said a resolution.
‘ We deplore the continuation of
the intolerable condition of the share
cropper.
"We recognize the growing im
portance of the labor movement all
over the world, demanding as it is,
better wages, Improved working con
ditions and the right to organize.
We urge our people, whether em
ployer or employe, to inject the spirit
of Jesus into this vast and important
issue, believing that love, understand
ing, co-operating and tolerance will
do much to Christianize what prom
ises to become the most significant
non-religious movement of our day.”

RANDOLPH OPPOSES
NEW JUNK CONTROL
Protests Requirement That Waste
Materials Be Held 30 Days
Before Sale.
A protest against a change in po
lice regulations extending from 10 to
30 days the period in which second
hand and junk dealers are required to
hold scrap metal and certain other
waste materials was filed with the
Commissioners and Police Supt. Ernest
W. Brown yesterday by Representative
Randolph, Democrat, of West Virginia,
a member of-the House District Com
mittee.
Randolph pointed out the ability
promptly to aell scrap metal, which
has a fluctuating market, "is vital
to the waste material dealers and the
necessity for holding waste materials
for an additional period has a ruinous
effect upon the Industry.”
The attention of Randolph was
called to the change in the regula
tions by Alfred M. Schwartz, attorney
for the Washington Waste Material
Dealers’ Association, an organization
of 55 Junk dealers. Schwartz claimed
the 30-day period, instead of regu
lating the Junk business, "would de
stroy It.”
