• WASHINGTON—Many Washington observers believe that Presi-
dent Truman carried off a shrewd political maneuver when he pro-
claimed the cessation of World War II hostilities.
They point out that the president left heavy responsibility on the
new Republican-controlled Congress for enactment of legislation to
fill gaps caused by revocation of war-time statutes. Political vet-
erans agree that Mr. Truman acted cautiously and cleverly.
A number of war-time powers, like sugar and rent controls, that
are political dynamite, were not included in the
emergency laws terminated by the chief execu-
tive’s action.
However, the Republicans, In enacting legisla-
tion to cover the statutes that went by the board,
still must handle plenty of hot potatoes.
For instance, a billion and a half dollars’ worth
of excise taxes will be lost to the government
after July 1 unless Congress does something
about it.
The Democrats in Congress now can sit back
and wait for the GOP to make mistakes—be-
cause the president has given "the ball” to the
majority party.
• SOME ADMINISTRATION officials are will-
ing to give Congress a legislative plan which they claim will help
reduce government expenditures.
This involves a proposal for the centralization of all government
construction under a single agency—possibly the Federal Works
Agency.
Backers of the measure argue that it should cut expenses by at
least 20 per cent. They point out that federal construction at pres-
ent is divided among many departments, each of which maintains a
planning staff.
Under the proposal being advocated, the construction agency
would negotiate for the purchase of land, draw up plans and engi-
neer the actual work, turning the completed project over to the
agency destined to use it.
The agencies concerned, however, would be consulted on the loca-
tion, size and other details of the buildings involved.

• CONRAD HILTON, one of the nation’s foremost hotel men,
believes that the shortage of hotel rooms will continue for several
years.
Hilton bases on two beliefs Ids contention that the golden era of
the hotel business will last for some time. He asserts:
1— Travel will continue at a brisk rate for several years, thus
keeping the demand for rooms heavy.
2— Few hotels will be built in the next few years to take care of
the rushing business because financiers are skeptical
about investing their money in such enterprises.
Hilton claims that without even considering tour-
ist travel, government missions and business repre-
sentatives will fill available rooms.
In comment on hotel construction financing,
he says:
“After their sorry experiences of the 20’s, when numerous hotels
failed, businessmen certainly are going to be reluctant about put-
ting up money for new hotel construction. The result is that few
hote’s will ho built.”
Mrs Carroll Mijnden iwas hos-
tess Friday afternoon to the
Kroweldeen Club at her home on
West Sixth Street. White carna-
tions and nandina foliage were
used effectively in the party
rooms.
Mrs. E. L. Hart presided over a
short business session and cur-
rent events of special interest
were given by each member.
Mrs. Seb Caldwell directed the
interesting program, as follows:
“The Mountain Tribes of Iran
and Iraq”—Mrs. Chas. I. Lide.
“Our Heritage”—Mrs. Webber
Beall.
“India and the West”—Mrs.
George Watts.
‘‘Through the Heart of Hindu-
stan”—Mrs. U1. E. Witt.
During the social hour, the
guests were invited into the din-
ing room, where a chicken spa-
ghetti supper was served from a
beautifully appointed table.
The club will meet next Friday
at the home on Mrs. Bobby Tray-
lor on East Fourth Street.
