By EDWARD © by Western Newspaper Union. EXFORD GUY TUGWELL’S appearance before the senate agriculture committee to be quizzed as to his fitness for the position of undersecretary. of agriculture was rather farcical; even. though it brought on heated encounters among the members. of. the committee. The senators aired their own views freely, but learned almost nothing concern‘ing those of Mr. Tugwell, He did tell them he believed the ConStitution was flexible R. G. Tugwell enough to take care of any necessary economic changes; that he wus opposed to the adoption of Soviet planning by America, and that he thought his experience on his father’s farm and his research qualified him for the position to which the President had appointed him. Finally the committee reported the nomination favorably, the only two opposing votes being: those of “Cotton Ed” Smith of South Carolina and. Henry D. Hatfield of West Virginia. The action. of the committee assured Tugwell’s confirmation by the senate, but the debate on the floor was unexpectedly long and the attacks . . on Tugwell were outspoken. Senator Schall of Minnesota, for instance, said: “Agriculture demands and already has experiment stations dealing in actual crops, live stock, and markets. It wants no ‘bold experiments in collectivism’ by a self-styled philosopher who functions like a three card monte sharp who jumps upon a box with three shells and a pea and who entertains the public with his cry, ‘Now you see it and now you don’t. Who is the next gent? “Tugwell’s general denial, and his specific denials, in the light of his associates in the field of political writing, are absolutely worthless. They are an insult to an intelligent jury. He insults the United States senate in order to gain a high office from which he can preach ‘collectivism’ as a substitute for American institutions and the Constitution.” ro the delegates of the steel workers’ unions were gathering in Pittsburgh to vote on the threatened strike, President Roosevelt and his advisers brought forward a plan for an emergency law designed to avert the walkout. It was admittedly a temporary expedient to give the President an effective agency for the consideration of industrial disputes arising during the life of the NRA. Under the new bill’s terms, boards selected by the President would. be empowered to order and conduct an election, by a secret ballot, to determine “by what person or persons or organizations” employees may desire to be represented.in negotiations under the collective bargaining features of the national recovery act. The proposed boards also would have the authority to order production of pertinent documents and witnesses to give testimony under oath, and their orders would be enforceable by any United States court of competent jurisdiction, similar to like privileges enjoyed by the federal trade commission. Vested with authority to prescribe their own rules and regulations, the boards would be armed with a penalty clause in the new law, setting $1,000 fine or a year imprisonment, or both, for violation of their decrees. N ITS second report to the President the national recovery review board, headed by Clarence Darrow, loosed another blast at Administrator Johnson and in effect recommended his removal as head of the NRA. The board said Johnson had given the recovery program an un-American and dictatorial tinge that handicapped it in the war on depression; that he has arbitrarily decreed life and death. for industries, and that by arbitrary modifications of codes he has helped big business concerns to oppress their smaller competitors. “The rule of the military commander fs totally unsuited to the genius, habfits, traditions, or chology of the American people, a holly ineffectual in meeting the present national erisis,” the board concluded. The second Darrow report covered the retail dry goods, warehousing, lumber, cement, retail food, boot and shoe, electrical manufacturing, bédding, petroleum, coffee, plumbing fixture, embroidery, and lead pencil codes. Complaints against the warehousing, electrical manufacturing, and embroidery codes were dismissed as without foundation, But in the other codes the board claimed to find oppression of msumers, = OF STATE’ HULL Grest Britain another note , the war debt, bluntly re“Brratige. ’ the contest, Carnera went into the adequate protection to industry.

ENATOR ARTHUR ROBINSON of Indiana, who was renominated by the Republicans, will be opposed at the polls next fall by Sherman Minton, the selection of the Democratic State convention. Mr. Minton, a World war veteran, is now publie counselor for the public service commission of the state. His nomination was a victory for Governor McNutt over the faction led by R. Earl Peters, former state chairman. [* THE Democratic run-off primary in Alabama, Former Gov. Bibb Graves won the nomination for governor and goes back to the executive office which he held from January, 1927, to January, 1931. Judge James E. Horton, who presided in the second trial of Hey wood Patterson, one of the nine negro defendants in the “Scottsboro case,” and then set aside a jury verdict of death, ran more than 2,500 behind A. A. Griffith of Cullman. George Huddleston of Birmingham retained his seat as congressman from. the Ninth district, but Congressman Miles C. Allgood of the Fifth district was beaten by Maj. Joe Starnes. MMEDIATE relief from distress and recovery of business prosperity fall far short of President Roosevelt's plans for regeneration of the nation. “Hy This was revealed in his special message to congress which told of the plans and recommendations he would submit to the next congress. He asked for no: present legislation, but gave notice of the social experiments he _ proposes. to begin next winter, The message discussed the three factors of housing, land and_ resource planning and old age and unemployment insurance, Expressing satisfaction over progress ‘in relieving industry, agriculture, and unemployment, the President, asserting his right to chart social reforms, declared, “It is childish to speak of recovery first and reconstruction afterward.” Taking up the housing problem, he said millions of dollars had already been provided to improve living conditions, and voiced the hope that with. passage of his housing program private capital would be stimulated to widen the scope of home building. Discussing planned control of the land, he declared that hundreds of thousands of families now live “where there is no reasonable prospect of a, living in the years to come.” Sounding the failure of the government thus far to create a “national policy” for the development of land and water resources, Mr. Roosevelt indicated his intention of providing such a policy, and for the transferring to new lands of “those people who cannot make a living in their present positions.” Outlining his views on providing security against unemployment and old age, Mr. Roosevelt said he was seeking a “sound means” which he could recommend to provide an immediate safeguard against these “hazards and vicissitudes of life.” President Roosevelt HEN President Roosevelt signed the tariff bargaining bill he acquired authority to negotiate reciprocal trade treaties without senate approval and to increase or decrease tariff rates by as much as 50 per cent in order to stimulate foreign commerce, This policy of swapping. reductions, the government believes, will result in great benefit to our foreign trade, and at the same time will give ready nearly thirty foreign nations are lined up, awaiting an opportunity to negotiate reciprocal treaties, M 4s BAER of California brought the world’s heavyweight title back to America by soundly whipping Primo Carnera, the huge Italian, in New York.

This new law puts an end to the federal radio commission and creates a new board of seven members known as the federal communications commission that not only takes over the duties of the radio board but also all control that has been exercised by the interstate commerce commission over telegraphic and telephonic communications, As set forth in the law, its enactment is for the purpose of regulating interstate and foreign commerce in communication by wire and radio to make available, so far as possible, to all the people of the United States a rapid, efficient, nation-wide and worldwide wire and radio communication Service with adequate facilities, at reasonable charges, for the purpose of national defense and for the purpose of securing a more effective execution of this policy by centralizing authority heretofore granted by law to séveral agencies; and by granting additional authority with respect to interstate and foreign commerce in wire and radio communication, . A significant new provision which the bill carries’ into law is the assertion of full control over all wire and radio communications by the government in case of war or “public peril.” Under this section the President has authority to take over all wire and radio offices and stations with just compensation to persons entitled thereto. ARGELY through the efforts of Norman Davis, American ambassador at large, the European statesmen at Geneva were «persuaded to drop their quarreling and adopt a_ mild compromise resolution that prolonged’ the life of the disarmament, conference, Great Britain and France agreed upon a plan, based on the return of Germany to the conference, and the aid of Italy was enlisted. It was arranged that Chancellor Hitler -should go to Venice and that Premier Mussolini should fly to that city to confer with his fellow dictator, whom he had never met. Later Louis’ Barthou, French foreign minister, is expected to go to Rome for a talk with Mussolini in ‘which the misunderstandings between their countries may be ironed out. Mussolini and Hitler were to discuss European policies generally, and, specifically, the German claims to full armament and the Austrian question, involving Nazi propaganda in the latter countrv. This Anglo-French compromise was a diplomatic setback for Russia, but the Soviet republic countered with the announcement that it had been recognized by Czechoslovakia and Rumania. Recognition by Jugoslavia was expected to follow shortly. Maxim Litvinov’s announcement was taken to mean that the Russians intend to go ahead with their policy of encircling Germany. The recognition was effected by an exchange of letters between Litvinov and Dr. Edward Benes, foreign minister of Czechoslovakia, and Nicholas Titulescu, foreign, minister of Rumania. After suggesting an early exchange of ministers, which will assure that relations between their countries ‘‘will always remain friendly and correct,” each of these letters. adds the phrase, “our peoples will collaborate in the future to maintain the peace of the world.” German papers agree a new chapter in relations between Soviet Russia and the powers of southeastern Europe has been opened. It is expected the next step probably will be the conclusion of a commercial agreement between the little entente and Moscow, one of the purposes being to minimize the effect of Soviet dumping of lumber and cereals in the entente nations, Nonaggressions and mutual assistance pacts. are said to be in the background. A committee of the disarmament conference had wnder consideration the matter of guarantees for any convention which may be agreed upon; but when the question was submitted to the Japanese delegate he said his government could not consent to guarantees without reservations: There. upon the Russian delegate said the Soviet. government would not accept any such agreement that was not signed by Japan. Premier Mussolini VEN the Democrats in congress are not boasting openly -of their success "in passing the bill‘ for a census of the unemployed, and many of them voted against it or were absent when it came up for final passage, That it was designed mainly to give jobs for the faithful at the expense of the national treasury was clear, for the census takers are not to get their jobs until after the November congressional slections. Then they will receive $2 a day for a long period, obtaining answers. to au elaborate questionnaire. Pp RSet ER STRICKEN regions of the Middle West were blessed with soaking rains, and hope was held out for forage crops and corn. The earlier crops, however, are ruined over most of the area.

Half dollars are the most common of the bogus coins. California, taking a step from the chain store system, moved recently toward forming a chain of world fairs for 1938 and 1939. County officials meeting in Los Angeles endorsed preliminary proposals for three world fairs during the two years and named a committee to help promote the plan.
