GLASS JNSENATE
Virginia Democrat Hurls
Accusation at Chairman
Nye of Munitions Com
mittee Nye's Face Red
WASHINGTON. Jan. 17. (yp) A
cry of "coward" was flung today by
Senator Glasa (D., Va.) at "any man
who degrades the character and In
tegrity of Woodrow Wilson."
Chairman Nye of the senate muni
tions committee had just repeated a
charge that Wilson "falsified" the j
record of the World war.
Olaas, who was secretary of the ,
treasury under Wilson, took the floor j
before packed galleries. Intent on the ,
fiercest battle of the session. i
"If It were permissible under the
senate rules to say that any man who
degrades the character and Integrity
of Woodrow Wilson Is ft coward, I
would say it," he declared.
Ne and Connolly Clash.
Defending hla contention that .he
war-time president "falsified" by say
ing he did not know until after the
war of secret Allied treaties for the
division of European territory, Nye
earlier had clashed bitterly with Sen
ator Conn ally (D., Texas), He said
that a committee headed by Conn ally,
who accused him yesterday of "In
sulting" Wilson without justification,
had long delayed action upon vital
war profits legislation assigned for
its consideration.
Nye's face turned ft deep red as the
73-year-old Virginian took him to
task.
"When, may I ask the senator from
North Dakota, did he transfer to the
British embassy?" Olaas demanded.
"When did hla Intimacy with Balfour
become so great as to warrant him
saying he thought Mr. Balfour said
something to Woodrow Wilson and
therefore his supposition Is to be
tsken as proof and Wilson called a
falsifier?"'
Implication Resented.
He said he resented as an "Infam
ous libel, whether suggested or di
rectly made," any implication that
Wilson was Influenced by the bank
ing house of Morgan to change his
neutrality policy and enter the war
on the side of the Allies.
"Woodrow Wilson did not declare
war." he shouted. "The constitution
ssys that la the exclusive prerogative
of congress. The president came bo
fore the congress and stated his rea
sons why there should be a declara
tion and congress and this country
responded with applause and appre
ciation of the manhood of their presi
dent," DEATH OE KIPLING

HEW FARM POLICY
PROMISES EFFECT
OF AAA SAYS F. R.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 17 (AP)
Confidence that the new farm plan
proposed under soil erosion and con
servation lawa would carry out the
purposes of the dead AAA and bring
about what he considers ft well
rounded agricultural development of
the nation was expressed today by
President Roosevelt. ,
The chief executive discussed the
agricultural problem at hi press con
ference after stipulating that he waft
not replying to the farm address last
night by former President Herbert
Hoover, He explained he had not
had an opportunity yet to rend the
Hoover speech.
May Mean New Tax
There was an Intimation that new
taxes might be necessary to meet the
program as a substitute for the old
processing levies killed by the su
preme court. The president said,
however, he was not ready to discus
that phase.
Mr. Roosevelt said slight amend
ments to the existing soil erosion and
conservation acts will be necessary.
He reserved any estimate on the
amount of money which would be
required by the government to lease
land from farmers under the pro
posed plan,
Some congressional leaders who at
tended yesterday's White House farm
conference had h.intloned 9300,000.
000 to $400,000,000 fts necessary for
carrying out the program Is 1030.
Mr. Roosevelt emphasised that soil
erosion constitutes not only the ac
tual washing away of soil Into rivet
beds but also loss of chemicals In the
soil resulting from Its continued use
for tha same crop.
Includes All Farms -
Asked If this Interpretation did not
bring every farm of the country un
der the scope of the erosion law, the
president said he thought it did.
He explained the existing machin
ery. Including county agents, prob
ably would be employed In carrying
out the purpose of the new program.

TRENTON, N. J., Jan. 17 (AP)
Striking back at threats of 1m-
peaenment, Governor Harold O. Hoff
man, in fighting mood, defended
his 30-day reprieve of Bruno Rich
ard Hauptmann today with a bristl
ing retort to his foes.
"If Impeachment la the price that
must be paid for daring to follow
the dictates of my conscience, X am
ready to pay It," the 89-year-old
goverrar said In the longest state
ment he haa ever Issued on the
Londbergh baby murder case.
"A good Investigation of the
Lindbergh case might be a healthy
thing."
Jafsie Ready Return.
.The governor's statement, fol
lowing the publication In tha Tren-,
ton State -Oaentte and Trenton Eve,
nlng Times today of an editorial
titled "Impeach Hoffman." came
shortly after an exchange of cable
gram between Attorney-General
David T. Wllnets and Dr. John 7.
Condon (Jafsie) had been made
public.
The attorney-general advised Con
don that the governor's course might
be construed as a reflection upon
the , state, of . New Jersey and tha
authorities that Investigated the
Lindbergh case. Condon offered to
return forthright from Cristobal,
where he arrived today. Wllenta aald
there was no-need of It.
Governor Hoffman, who haa Indi
cated ft desire to tolk with Dr.
Condon, signed the reprieve order
this morning. Tho condemned man,
who waa under sentence to die at
8 o'clock tonight, learned of the
reprieve lata yesterday.
Received Muny Threats.
"Impeachment proceedings repre
sent only one of the threat levelled
against me.," the ordinarily Jovial
governor said, "If I elected to follow
my own sense of duty In this mat
ter. I do not fear them.'
It ts known that soon after
Hauptmann was convicted, the gov
ernor received letters threatening
his life, and the Uvea of th Jurors,
and supreme Court Justlco Thomas
W. Tren chard, who tried and sen
tenced Hauptmann.
The governor waa absent from the
capltol when hla statement was Is
sued, Whether his absence related to
his "divers reasons"' for the reprieve
was not disclosed.
"I am moved hy no maudlin senti
ment In this matter." the governor's
statement went on. "I am the father
of three children. I look upon the
kidnaping as one of the most das
tardly of crimes.
"When Hauptmann was told that
his only chance to save his life wsa to
go before the board of pardons, say
'I am guilty' and throw himself upon
the mercy of the court, he spurned
