ANTI-MONOPOLY INQUIRY
EXPECTED PROVIDE ISSUE
WASHINGTON, May 28 The Amer
ican congress has been unappreclatlve
of the Nazis' glories. The senators
and representatives have been sadly
obtuse In their understanding of the
wisdom, high statesmanship and hu
manitarian purposes of Herr Hitler
and his followers. It Is refreshing,
therefore, to know that the light of
truth has penetrated even the murky
halls of the capltol: that the German
racial program has been warmly In
dorsed on the senate floor, by one
vested with all the dignities and pow
ers of a senator of the United States.
Somehow or other, when it was
made a day or so ago, this Important
pronouncement escaped the attention
It deserved. It Is reproduced here In
proof of the Intelligence to which
democracy can sometimes rise.
As preserved In the official record,
It runs In part:
"Race consciousness Is developing
In all parts of the world. For exam
ple, consider Italy, consider Gormany.
It Is beginning to be recognized by
the thoughtful minds of the age that
the conservation of racial values Is
the only hope for future civilization.
It will be recslled that Hitler, In his
speech on April 0 at Vienna, gave as
the bssls of his program to unite
Austria with Gormany, 'German blood
ties.' The Germans appreciate the
Importance of race values. They
understand that racial Improvement
Is the greatest asset that any country
can have ....
"It Is to the scientific Inventiveness
of the German people that their
great leaders look In these troublous
times for means to preserve their
political future. They know, as few
other nations have yet realized, that
the impoverishment of race values
contributes more to the Impairment
and destruction of civilization than
any other agency. Hence It comes
about that. In every extremity with
which they are faced, they strive to
stir up the feeling of race conscious
ness and race pride ..."
Rerr Hitler's gratification at the
utterance of such elevating words In
a the United States senate should Be
y Increased by the fact that the utterer
la a member of the party In power,
a statesman whose faculties are wide
ly admired, a fellow Justly celebrated
under the simple title of "the man."
It was fitting. Indeed, that this In
dorsement of the principles of Nazl
lsm should have come from the lips
of the Hon. Theodore Gilman Bilbo.
Junior senator from Mississippi.
The Bilbo speech, which consumed
most of last Tuesday afternoon, was
an appropriate setting for Its most
Important pronouncement. It was a
plea for the use of part of the pump
pMmlng fund to transport up to
12.000.000 American negroes to Africa,
there to enjoy the peaceful plenty of
another Liberia. Ita theme was In
genious. Its manner, grand. Senator
Bilbo brings to his oratory ill the
(repressiveness of a side-show barker,
all the rich Intellect of an assistant
kleagle.
The senate chamber, to be sure, has
the ahabby colorleasness natural to
democracies. Yet. it Herr Hitler hsd
been In the gallery last Tuesday
afternoon, he might have shut his
eyes and been convinced that he was
listening to Ooebbels.
In case Ambassador Kleckhoff
needs Information In Bilbo to cable
to his master. It may be well to sup
ply some. Bilbo. Herr Hitler will feel
at home to hear, la the apotheosis
of the poor white politician. He has
once been In Jail, as Herr Hitler was
himself. And he has often been the
victim of Just such misapprehensions.
as to his motives and purposes, as
have made the rorld estimate of the
fuehrer ao unjustly low.
Fortunately, the record shows that
Bilbo is a leader of the peopl? of th'
greatest Ingenuity and highest states
manahtp Did he not once suerest
tha'. all Mississippi's roads be paved
with brvki of Mississippi cisy. thus
winning the votes of all Mississippi's
back country farmers, who expected
their Infertile acres to be transformed
into profitable clay mines? Was not
that scheme worthy of comparison
with some promises msdi by the
fuehrer himself?

PRESIDENT'S TALK
E
Southern Leader Answers
White House Criticism
Of Business Aid Measure
Veto Desired.
WASHINGTON, May 38. (AP) An
old line southern Democrat Senator
Pat Harrison of Mississippi told :
the senate today President Roosevelt
was all wrong when he criticized the j
new tax law.
Harrison, chairmen of the atnate
committee which helped write the
tax revision measure, replied to the
criticism voiced by the president
yesterday in a speech at Arthurdale,
W. Va.
Raising his long arms to emphasise
his words, he said:
"Congress framed this tax legisla
tion to help business. I only hope
that what we had expected will not
be dampened or thrown away by
this speech the president made yes
terday." Mr. Roosevelt permitted the afi,.
000,000,000 revenue measure to be
come law last night without his sig
nature, declaring he did not want to
seem to favor "the abandonment of
an Important principle of American
taxation."
This was an obvious reference to
the undistributed profits tax, which
the president consistently has advo
cated and many business spokesmen
criticized. The new law continues
this levy for two years In drastically
modified form.
Harrison said Mr. Roosevelt had
been "misinformed" in arguing that
the new flat-rate capital gains tax
did not bear on the big end little
taxpayer In proportion to their abil
ity to payr
The Mlssisslpplan said the treasury
gave him "no sympathetic co-operation"
when he sought recently to
ease the tax load on debt-burdened
corporations.
Harrison expressed regret that Mr.
Roosevelt had let the tax bill be
come a law without signing it.
"I would have much preferred
that he had said he didn't like those
(undistributed profits and capital
gains) provisions and vetoed the
bill," the senator added. "I have no
fear of what would have happened
In the American congress."
Thla statement was interpreted
generally as a contention that con
gress would have overridden the veto.
The new tax law, the Mississippi
Democrat declared, should "unfreeze
much of the credit of thla country,
and be most helpful In getting some
new Industries started to relieve un
employment and distress."
Prior to Harrison's talk, treasury
officials disclosed the administration
would seek general tax revision at
the next session of congress.
Harrison told the senate there un
doubtedly would be a tax bill at next
session. He said some "nuisance"
taxes would be expiring next year,
and added that the modified undis
tributed profits levy would be inop
erative after January 1, 1940.
"So We will need new taxes." he
said.
NEW DEAL VOTING
WASHINGTON. May 38. ,7p) Ad
ministration intervention In state
primary elections was assailed anew
in the senate today.
"The federal government has noth
ing whatever to do with the election
of United States senators and the
governors." said Senator Bailey (D.
N. C In a speech on the $3,000,
000.000 spcndlng-lendlng bill. "And
that goes for the president of the
United States."
Bailey reopened an attack begun
recently when WPA Administrator
Harry Hopkins expressed favor for
Representative Otha Wearln of Iowa
in his race with Senator Gillette for
the Democratic senatorial nomination
He criticized also what he Hid was
the Intervention of Secretary Ickes In

HUNDREDS ESCAPE
Bl MINUTES WHEN
VESSEL3C0LLIDE
Bermuda Bound Liner Hits
Excursion Craft In New
York Harbor In Fog
Speedy Rescue.
NEW 'YORK, May 28. M The
excursion boat Mandalay and the
steamship Acadia collided In a fog
An the lower bay tonight, the Man
dalay sinking a few minutes after
her several hundred passengers and
crew were transferred safely to the
other boat.
The Mandalay was returning from
a trip to Atlantic Highlands. N. J..
Just outside New York harbor. The
Acadia was bound for Bermuda with
about 100 passengers.
The Acadia buried her prow more
than 15 feet into the starboard side
of the excursion boat, crashing Into
the dance floor and engine room.
A Mandalay sailor immediately
Jumped across to the Acadia and
made fast a rope, and the passengers
were helped across by the crews of
both ships.
Witnesses said It took only about
10 minutes to transfer an estimated
300 passengers. The Mandalay. built
In 1889, sank a few minutes later In
about 30 feet of water, with the
bridge and funnels still above the
surface.
A veritable squadron of police and
coast guard boats went down the
harbor and took the Mandalay pas
sengers off the Acadia.
Two coast guard boats landed 57
survivors at near-by Staten Island
and the Icarus with 388 steamed back
to the Battery, the southern end of
Manhattan Island.
The Acadia returned to her dock
for Inspection by government offi
cials, routine after a crash, although
no serious damage was visible. At
the dock, passengers were not al
lowed to leave and no one was
permitted to board her during the
inspection.
The collision occurred In the "nai
rows," a channel formed by tha
Brooklyn and Staten Island shores
between tha upper and lower parts
of New York harbor.
Capt. Philip R. Curran of the Man
dalay, when he reached shore, was
taken to the Old Slip police station
for questioning.
The fog in which the crash occurred
was part of a freak weather situation,
with intermittent thick fogs, which
prevailed over most of metropolitan
New York.

EUROPEAN LANDS
OF PEACE PLEDGES
Secretary Of State Takes
Note Of War Dangers-
Nation To Exert Influence
For Peace. ;
WASHINGTON. May 38. (AP)
The United States government tried
to keep central European powers
from each other's throats today by
reminding them that they had given
their solemn word nearly 10 years
ago to refrain from war.
While Europe awaited anxiously
the outcome of Sudeten Germans'
demands for autonomous powers In
Czechoslovakia, Secretary of State
Hull called a special press conference
to exert this government's moral
influence for a peaceful settlement.
He said:
"With reference to the critical
situation Involving countries in cen
tral Europe. I desire to say that the
Bovernment of the United States
has been following recent develop
ments with close and anxious atten
tion. "Nearly 10 years ago the govern
ment of the United States signed
at Paris a treaty (the Kellogg-Briand
pact) providing for the renunciation
of war as an Instrument of national
policy.
"There are now parties to that
treaty no less than 63 countries.
In that treaty the contracting parties
agree that 'the settlement or solu-
lon of all dispute or conflicts of
whatever nature or of whatever
origin they may be, which may
arise among them, shall never be
sought except by pacific means.'
That pledge la no less binding now
than when it was entered into. It
Is binding upon all of the parties.
"We can not shut our eyes to the
fact that any outbreak of hostilities
anywhere In the world injects Into
world affairs a factor of general dis
turbance that ultimate consequence
of which no man can foresee and
la liable to Inflict upon all nations
incalculable and permanent In
juries." m

CALLS ON
G.O.P. TO FREE U. S.
FROM 'DICTATOR'
Re-employment Held Vital
Need Oppression By
, Labor Or Capital De
plored By Kansan.
NTAOARA FALLS, N. T., May 38.
() 1 Former Gov. Alf M, Landon of
Kansas called on the Republican par
ty tonight to resolve to "free thla
country from all oppressive dicta
tion," whether by government, In
dustry, finance or labor.
Addressing the annual New York
young Republican cluba convention.
Landon declared the Republican par
ty, equally with the Democratic par
ty, "derives from Thomas Jefferson,
the Individualist, the decentrallst, tha
opponent of oppression, and the ene
my of omnipotent planning."
The Republican party must re
member that Jefferson fought not
only government oppression, but all
economic oppression aa well, be
said.
Calling his speech "the opportunity
of the Republican party," the 1930
Republican standard bearer declared
that the party might attract "prac
tical libera la" by opposing oppres
sion. The party, he continued, muat re
solve to free this country from all
oppressive dictation, whether by bu
reaucratic official or financier, wheth
er by Industrialist or by labor lead
er, whether by publto money or by
private money, whether by the force
of the militia or by the force of the
mab.
V "If . the Republican parby can take
M-.Jw-oacJ swxcV honest a view of ita
mission," he continued, "it will last
through a multitude of years. It will
stand as a bulwark against hitherto
unknown oppression in America. It
will be of Immeasurable service la
time of need."
He continued: "I don't want to sea
tha pendulum awing back to the dom
lnant rampant lndlvaduala of old.
Neither do I want to see It swing
toward the complete elimination of
Individualism with the destruction
of all the previous freedom that
makea democracy.
"None of us wants to see society
ruled by fascist of bureaucratic gov
ernment on the one hand, or by tha
power of money on the other. The
average man can lost his political
and economic security either way. ,
"We have failed to check up our
monopolies. They must be checked,
and there la little difference between
a private monopoly and a government
monopoly. It la still a monopoly."
Landon declared, however, that re
employment of 13.000.000 men and
women was the nation's first prob
lem and added:
"I don't want to be personal about
this, but It la too bad we dont have
somebody In Washington who can
get the Job done."
The speaker aald a "great basic"
poll Ural issue waa forming over tha
question of whether government
should police or manage business.
The problem, he aald, waa whether
the law should tell business what It
cannot do or whether business should
be told by "one mortal man" what
It must do.
Landon predicted the breakup of
the Democratic party because "tha
president, in spite of a broad consis
tency of stated objectives, haa led
his party Into a program of many
divergent, contradictory and lrrecon
ctllable policies.
"We all agree government must do
things today that we did not conceive;
of even a generation ago. But aa we
extend federal government power to
eurb economic oppression, we must
approach the question with a cau
tion born of competence, not with
decision born of recklessness."
"If the problem of over-concentrated
(economic) power la not met
with Intelligence, the temptation la
to meet It with violence," Landon
continued. "Revolutions seek to ach
ieve what could have been worked
out by peaceful means."
