MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEUFOKU, OREGON, THURSDAY. NOVEMBER 21, 1935. PAGE TTTRIibJ DILL ADVOCATES LEGAL TEST FOR NEW TRADE PACT Former Washington Sena tor Tells Lumber Interests to Join Other Indus tries in Court Attack WASHINGTON, Nov. 21.. p) For mer Senator C. C. Dill, Washington state Democrat, suggested to lumber Interests today that they join other Industries to test the reciprocal trade agreement law In the courts. Expressing belief the law was un constitutional, he said there were two things Industries could do: "They can go to congress and get renewed excise taxes to overcome the acts made by the president, or they can go Into court and test the legal ity of the grant of power given the president to make treaties without ratification by the senate. Tax Hoist Veto Seen "The objection to the first action is that the president probably would veto any legislation Increasing the ex clFe tax on Hems tn the pacts." The lumber Industry could Insti tute court action to compel the col lector of customs In a port of entry to charge the tariffs made by con gress rather than those fixed by the president, Dill said. On the other hand, he added, lum bermen could Join representatives of other Industries In such a suit, and bring an action covering many Items which suffered reductions of protec tion In any reciprocal trade agree ments. He said, however, he would prefer to see action against the Cana dian -pact alone. Could Join Florida Dill added, however, it would be possible for the lumber Industry to Join Florida Interests, which have an nounced they Intend to test the case on the basis of citrus fruits from Cuba. Explaining that the "next result of a large number of treaties Is to whit tle down the protection to American Industries to practically all countries because of the most favored nation agreement." Dill said there would be no question but that damages have been suffered. s The former senator said the con 'stltution "makes ratification by the senate after treaties have been made one of the requirements to make them effective." This act, he added, overrides the constitution by having congress. Including the senate, give this ratification before the treaty even has been made and Impliedly ratifies them to every country on earth If and when the president makes them.

SAYS LAW OFFERS FINE OPPORTUNITY Same Chance As for Men Says Lady Who Rebelled at Being Woman's Com panion to Enter Profession By Frank A. Hart Associated Press Staff Writer BOSTON. Nov. 21. OP, Helen West Bradlee, who at 15 rebelled at being a woman s companion and became a successful lawyer, said today there was a fertile field for women In the legal profession. "There are the same opportunities for women in the legal profession as there are for men," she said, "provid ing they apply themselves to hard work, begin at the bottom, ami go slowly and carefully. Prejudices Immaterial "The little prejudices against them, because they are women, are Imma terial. Any woman with natural abil ity, who really perseveres, has an ex cellent chance to succeed. "The average woman Is too sensi tive. She looks at things from the personal rather than the impersonal viewpoint, which makes It difficult for her to attain the success of a man of the same ability."

John and Pr'scilla Alden. and of Samuel Bradlee. one of the organizers of the Boston Tea Party," became dissatisfied with her lot when she was employed as com panion of an elderly woman".
