Washington Snapshots Taken by the Helms News Service President Hoover will have to confront a Democratic House of Representatives and a hostile Sen ate controlled by Democrats and Insurgents when Congress conven es next month unless some totally unexpected upset occurs within the next four weeks. A season of bit ter turmoil is in prospect with the presidential election of 1932 as the goal of all maneuvers. Recent elections gave the Democrats clear majority in the House and virtu ally assured the election of Repre sentative Garner, of Texas, as Speaker to succeed the late Ni cholas Longworth. That was the first conclusion to be drawn from the results. There was no serious disagreement about it. oooOooo With the Democrats in control of the House, as now seems prob able, there may come intra-party strife and dissension, but already the Democratic leaders are taking steps to divide the honors as har moniously as possible. The threat of trouble results from the senior ity rules which guide the selection of committee chairmen. Under it the South will regain its supre macy in the House. oooOooo If the Democrats organize the House, as they now seem likely to do, they will have charge of all legislative measures taken up for consideration and action All rev enue legislation and tariff legisla tion, under the Constitution, must originate in the House. Just how far the Democrats are ready to go in the matter of increasing taxes, on the eve of an election, is a question. Already Senator Pat Harrison of Mississippi, one of their national party leaders, has expressed the opinion that the Government can meet its financing by borrowing money instead of in creasing the tax burden when busi ness is trying to struggle to its feet again. oooOooo To the debris inevitable to el ections, apparently must be added the lost hopes of Alfred E. Smith, titular head of the Democratic Party, nationally. Governor, in the opinion of many of the capital's observers, lost a lot of prestige when New York ignored to a tune of better than two to one, his demand that it vote down a reforestation pro gram sponsored by Governor Roosevelt. As they summed it up, Smith, whose very name was ma gic in the Empire State at one time, is a political "has been" in his homeland. Elsewhere in the country, it is a matter off debate whether Smith has lost or gained prestige or whether the episode has had little or no effect at all upon his leadership. oooOooo Prospective members of the del egation President Hoover hopes to send to the February Geneva dis armament parley are shying away because of their dubiousness over the success of the conference.

Crop shortages and weather damage, Stone said, together with strong indications of short planting next year "will put us back on an even keel as far as the relation between production and consumption is concerned." oooOooo As the League of Nations' "ul timatum" to Japan, demanding withdrawal of Japanese troops in Manchuria from beyond the treaty zones along the South Manchurian Railway, approaches its expiration date, November 16, war clouds in the Far East show signs of dark ening, rather than lifting. By far the most ominous manifestation in the heavens shadowed by them is the indication that Russia may be drawn into the controversy now confined to China and Japan. If Russia were to be embroiled the international ramifications of the controversy would spread like wildfire. Rumania and Poland, thousands of miles from the scene, are already contemplating it with anxiety. oooOooo The battle to control the opera tions of so-called contract car riers by motor truck is assuming major proportions and, incidentally, becoming more complicated. The Supreme Court of the United States spoke on the subject when it held unconstitutional a Florida statute which attempted to regu late all contract carriers, but ex empted trucks used by farmers used to haul agricultural products. Now the same court is preparing to consider the validity of a Texas statute regulating the transporta tion of cotton over the public high ways, a Federal District Court having held the act invalid. oooOooo Comfort and advice went to the building trades recently from two Administration sources. President!,. Hoover said 50,000 men were em ployed through the public build ings program and that it was es timated this number would rise to 100,000 by January 1. This en couragement to an industry whose idle employes have been estimated at over fifty per cent was preced ed by the inauguration of an in tensive campaign to rotate em ployment among its workers. oooOooo The accomplishments to date of the new dirigible Akron lend color to the belief that this giant craft may write the name of Am erica across the aeronautical skies in the space heretofore reserved exclusively for Germany. In all her trials so far the Akron seems to have measured fully up to the expectation of her builders and of the Navy. If she shows up as well in the more difficult tests still to come, there will be abun dant reason to expect that she will in the end outdistance the Graf Zeppelin, which is today the sym bol of superiority in lighter-than air craft. oooOooo With the view to perfecting her voice for sound pictures, Mrs. Hoover is having voice tests made. It is understood her object is to adopt permanently a method of speech and intonation for future talks in sound pictures. She has been dissatisfied with recent re cording of her voice. Mrs. Hoo ver's first experiment was made in the library, on the second floor off the White House. For nearly an hour she practiced before the microphone while her voice was recorded on sound picture reels.

Petroleum, Liberty, Well Drilled for Gas Produces Hot Water Instead. Nov. 9. (AP) Further improvement of the new swimming pool site recently opened after de velopment by the Phillips county post of the American Legion is contemplated. A project for construction of about 20 cabins suitable for camp ing, sufficient bath houses to ac commodate the public and a dance hall is under consideration. The work will cost about $4,500. The plunge is at the site of a well drilled for gas but which pro duced hot water. After a gas flow was cemented off as a conservation measure, the Saco and Malta vet erans secured the property and spent $5.000 in construction of cement plunge. a Montana is the source of the Missouri river. PRAIRIE DOG SEEN IN GRIM FRAY WITH LARGE RATTLESNAKE Bozeman, Mont., Nov. 11—The theory that a rattlesnake and a prairie dog live together harmon iously has been known to be false for some time and from W. F. Hardin of Malta conics the infor mation that the two animals will, on occasion, fight desperately. Hardin, as foreman of a prairie dog poisoning crew was attracted by the peculiar action of a dog. Curious as to the reason, he ap proached quietly and saw a priar ie dog trying to dislodge a rattle snake that had ensconced himself in a particularly high mound. Neither animal paid the slightest attention to Hardin and silently struggled for supremacy. The dog, very much alive to the menace of the snake's fangs, approached the mound cautiously until fairly close to his enemy. Then he darted for ward and as the snake struck, sprang into the air to fall back just out of reach. The actions of the two were lightning like in speed and Hardin could not see whether the snake sunk in his fangs at each attack. Blood on the prairie dog's chest showed however that at least a few of the deadly strikes had reached home. As Hardin watched the battle he saw that the snake was coiled in such a position that the prair ie dog could approach only from the front. Each time as the dog darted in, the snake struck, then coiled quickly and before the dog could approach from the only open entrance, the snake was ready and waiting. As Hardin's sympathies went out to the dog, he was on the point of stopping the unequal fight when the coming off his men broke it up. A very sick dog was allow e< ^ craw ^ iu^ 0 a nearby hole un molested. Hardin said the snake was apparently uninjured. The crew shared his sympathy for the valiant little dog. ITALY CELEBRATES KING'S BIRTH ON ARMISTICE DAY Rome, Nov. 11.—-(UP)—Armis tice Day, as celebrated in other countries of the former Allies, finds no counterpart in Italy. Here the end of the Great War is celebrated on Nov. 4, the date of Italy's ar mistice with Austria-Hungary. Consequently, today there was no repetition here of the scenes and ceremonies in other countries. Since today is King Victor's 62nd birthday, a half holiday declared, the schools, government offices and most of the banks and shops being closed in the after noon. The tricolor flew dll day from the public buildings, while the trolley cars and motor busses decked with bunting in honor of His Majesty. was were GREATER UNIVERSITY HAS 4,605 RESIDENT STUDENTS Helena, Mont., Nov. 5.—(AP)— There are 4,605 resident students enrolled at the six units of the Greater University of Montana, a survey made by D.
