WASHINGTON, March 20. Secre
tary Hull wrot r formal rebuke to
Herr Hitler a few days back, but you
sever will see it.
He composed It
In the form of an
official note, but
decided not to
send It.
The note ex
pressed regret at
Hitler's latest
violation of the
sanctity of treat
lea, especially the
separate Ameri
can treaty of
peace, whloh In
cluded the mili
PAUL MALLUN
tary clauses of the Versailles pact.
The story being told on the Inside
Tla that President Roosevelt ordered It
held up. He did not want to make
any move which would embroil him
In the latest European fuss. Mr.
Hulls associates fondled the Idea of
sending It later, after things calmed
down. But when Der Furore tore
up similar protests from the French
and Italians, they decided to save him
the trouble of tearing up this one.
A better way of communicating Mr.
Hull exasperation to Herr Hitler was
worked out slyly. The state secretary
decided to express himself off-the-record
at one of his press conferences.
These conferences are attended by all
fnre.cn nress representatives who
want to attend. No doubt Hitler now
has a transcript of Hull's remarks.
although they cannot be repealed out
loud.
All that can be said is that Mr.
Hull's manner waa extremely diplo
matic, painfully so. The only thing
he permitted the newsmen to puousn
about it waa that this government
considered Hitler's action as a threat
fo the entire peace structure of the
world. That, of course, la the mildest
possible version.
The diplomats thought that this
off-the-record sound-off was rather
neat. It avoided diplomatic embroil
nm. It prevented Hitler from
snubbing Hull s he dtrt the. French
and Italians.
The private Republican reaction
here to the new Hoover reorganisation
program certainly waa not encourag
ing to Mr. Hoover. A few here praised
It faintly, out most republicans in
congress Just remained wearily silent.
It la Increasingly apparent that. If
Hoover la going to assume the leader
ship of the party, he will have to do
it without much help from Washing
ton. There has been more inside talk
lately among them about letting Mr.
Hoover have the next republican
presidential nomination, but not in
any encouraging way. Most of them
do not yet know what they want to
do.
The only Hoover dig which pene
trated the skins of the New Dealers
deeply was the one about foreign
farm products pouring in while the
AAA Is holding down domestic pro
dtiction. The situation behind that la: For
eign farm Importations have been
running about twice as large as last
year. The Marcn ngures io oe pub
lished soon will show two and one
half to three times as much a March
last year.
If you dig Into the last official fig
ures, you will find that the quantity
of farm Imports in February last year
was about fifteen million units and
this year thirty-seven. The value
Jumped from 3.000.000 to $10,000,000.
However, value Is not a good barome
ter, because prices are much higher.
The New Dealers contend these im
