T h e W orlt! BY LESLIE EICHEL | (Central Press Stall Writer) NEW YORK. July i. — Events of 1 great historical significance are oc curring in Washington. President Roosevelt, defied by hi‘ own party leaders in congress, is bat tling them to put through certain measures. The Democratic party although known as liberal, contains more con servative elements as a whole than liberal. Thus we see the spectacle of the progressive republicans being the chief bloc in support of a dem ocratic president. And conservative democrats are Joining conservative republicans. The Defiant Committee The committee most defiant of all is the house interstate commerce committee. It is made up chiefly of long-term old-time democrats, de termined to stop any further en croachment on propert rights. This Is the committed "/'ch has been considering the president’s pub lic utilities control bill. Critics of the committee may say that the lobby of the public utilities, second in strength to the lobby of the bankers, might have swayed the committee. That may be true to a degree, but the motivating force of that defiance lies In the fear that an old order whereby large private corporations might exist and profit, may dis appear. • • • V What Committee Did The committee all but wrecked the president's bill. It stripped it of its death sentence for holding com panies of any kind, it completely eliminated gas companies from its regulations, it eased the tax on hold ing companies, etc. Now. the interesting thing is that all these important bills — the amendments to strengthen the Ten nessee Valley authority, the banking control legislation, the amendments to AAA. the president’s tax propos als for larger incomes and the utili ty holding company restrictions — would pass by a large majority in the open house or the open senate. Unless the revolt occurs in com mittee, it is too late—as has been proved by the Wagner labor dis putes bill and the social security bill Where votes are openly recorded, the Individual representatives or sena tors are fearful of saying “Nay.” The feeling is. of course, that the president can appeal to popular sen timent. And the feeling is, too. among the veteran conservatives, that the people “may go too far.** Even in the south, from which conservative party leaders come, there Is a demand that the utility corporations cease trying to wreck '#he TVA.
