74th Congress Adjourns After a Long Session
Edward W. Pickard notes the 74th Congress adjourned after five and a half months, approving nearly 10 billion dollars in appropriations, passing an emergency tax bill, and facing Supreme Court defeats of AAA and Guffey measures. The session saw extensive relief funding, a large defense program, revised conservation laws, and several notable bills fail to pass. Gorky dies in Moscow as a Soviet collective funeral honors him.

Peace through action and empathy rather than wishful thinking
The speaker argues that peace does not come from independence but from translating desire into action. It calls for creating an intellectual and moral atmosphere, building personal friendships, and training sympathy to view others’ perspectives beyond race color or culture. It asserts love as the ultimate cure for prejudice and urges personal self mastery to stay strong.
