LIBERAL-RADICAL PROGRAM
OLD-FASHIONED TRUST
BUSTING CORK OF PLAN
PUBLIC OWNERSHIP OF
MONOPOLIES IS FAVORED
GOVERNMENT BY EXPERTS,
NOT POLITICIANS' VISIONED
WASHINGTON. July 6. The think
ing of the new' deal Is done by the
president and his circle of private
advisers. Together they constitute a
remarkable group mind, in which
policies are originated, plans are
prepared, and the future charted.
And unless appearances deceive,
the most Important development of
the last year Is that this group mind
has, so to speak, made itself up.
In the first, football game period
of the new deal, there was no defln-
Iteneas of direction. The president
openly hankered for a ."planned
economy," but the government dash
ed first this way and then that, as
one expedient or another appealed
to the president, until It retembled
a well-intentioned but headless
chicken.
Now It may be said that tne presl
dent nd his Intimate circle have
agreed on broad principles of policy,
forming a pretty coherent, thorough
ly native, American liberal -radical
program. It Is this program that
the" president In "his fireside-chafT
asked all 'liberals" to support, and
all "conservatives" to oppose. It Is
with this program that he and his
advisers hope to produce the broad
political realignment which is now
their first ambition.
Naturally, the program can be de
scribed only In the rough test terms,
since It exists In men's minds, not
on paper. Moreover, two things
must be remembered. In certain
fields,, such as agriculture and for
eign affairs, where the president's
private advisers are without Influ
ence, the program does not apply.
And, second, the agreement on it
was recent. It reached the maturity
cf general consent only when the
need to blame someone else for the
new depression drove the president
to an anti-monopoly cnisade.
So much for exceptions. The heart
of the program Is old-fashioned trust
busting, brought up to date by new
and more radical methods. Enforcing
free competition on business Is the
central objective. Louis Dembltz
Brandels has always been an admired
and consulted hero of the members

Hundreds Killed and Many
Buildings Smashed Hills
Slide Upon City Deluge
Starts . With Cloudburst
TOKYO, July 7. (Thursday) P)
Scores of American residents were
Imperilled early today by a flood
roaring out of its surrounding hills
into Kobe, principal port of western
Japan, where the dead were estimat
ed at between 400 and 480.
Frederick Taylor, native of Sacra
mento. Cel.. at midnight gave the
Associated Press a vivid telephone
picture of the flood, which had cut
a tragic path through the heart of
the city of 938,000.
"It's still raining and I am heading
for higher ground before morning,"
said Taylor, long a resident of Kobe.
"I will try to get out by launch to
morrow. Buildings Smashed
"The best Information shows be
tween 400 and 480 are dead, but so
many ' buildings have been smashed
flat that nobody can say for certain.
"We know five foreigners are dead:
They are a Frenchman, a-, Russian, a
German woman and two Portuguese
children. I do not believe any Amer
icans have been killed or Injured.
"It has been ralntng for three days
and the hills on all sides of Kobe
have been slipping.
"The slides seemed to advance like
moving mountains right up to the
residential districts. They came with
in a few feet of my place.
"You can hear low rumbling and
then trees crashing..
Starts With cloudburst
"There'
reservoir in the hills
back of the city and some say it
broke. I do not know about that.
Anyway millions of tons of water
must have been dammed in the hills
by slides. ,
"Yesterday (Wednesday) morafng
about 9:30 a cloudburst hit us.
About an tour later a regular. Nlag
aga came out of the hills We heard
an awful roar, but It was not much
warn!ig.
"A solid wall of water about five
or six feet high came down so fast
very few in its path had time to es.
cape. It smashed both foreign and
Japanese houses like matchboxes. The
sound of wood splintering and crash
ing could be heard easily nmld the
thunder of the..1 waters.
Like Giant Roller
"The flood drove like a giant
steamroller through the middle of the
residential district and was still go
ing full rorce when It hit the busi
ness section.
"Where houses and buildings stood
a day ago there Is now a corridor with
a river going through.
"The Nunoblkl district over toward
Osaka was hardest' hit. The business
district was split right through the
middle.
"Everybody Is awake, tonight but
there. Is no panic. Troops have not
been called out., but units of the
Young Men's association (a militar
ized youth organization) and police
are doing everything possible.
"The worst problem Is drinking
water. The police are bringing water
around In casks.
"They are doing a wonderful Job
in rescue work and maintaining or
der, treating foreigners with the same
consideration as Japanese."
Surrounded By Hill
Kobe, Japan's premier port for
trade with Asia and Europe, lies at
the eastern end of the Inland sea.
It occupies a narrow shorefront ana

The Kobe Inundation came on the
heels of serious floods which swept

tremely heavy rains.

861 persons were killed Injured or

the United States delegation, gave
a blunt warning to the 33 -nation
conference on refugees today that
forced migration of political and

He named only one country Oer

Confessed Arsonist Was
Beaten ' by Officers.
DALLAS, Ore., July 6. P The
state rested at 10;10 o'olock this
morning In Its presentation of evi
dence against Al Rosser, former Port
land 'A.F.L. teamster union official,
on trial for arson.
Two final witnesses were called this
morning, Paul Mumpower, Portland
detective, and Deputy District Attor
ney Clarence Potts, Multnomp.h coun
ty, both of whom denied a previous
claim by Cecil Moore, who has con
fessed to his share In tho destruction
of the West Salem box factory last
November 30, that he had been
beaten In Portland and unable to
walk for three weeks.
Dismissal Moved.
Vanderveer moved to' dismiss the
case and discharge Rosser on grounds
that no testimony to prove the crim
inal setting had been offered except
the testimony of" accomplices whose
testimony ws not corroborated.
The only testimony tending to Im
plicate Rosser, he said, was that of
Banks, Newlands, Carson and Moore.
Also he said there was no testimony,
except that of the accomplices, to
show that the fire was incendiary.
Vanderveer said It might have start
ed by spontaneous combustion.
Vanderveer began another argu
ment to get possession of the Banks
confession, but was overruled by the
court, and was overruled in several
other defensive efforts. He attempt'
ed to call Special prosecutor- Ralph
Moody to the witness stand nnd was
overruled. He wanted to call Banks
again, but Judge Walker refused be
cause the state had rested.
' ' Refuse Reopening,
Vanderveer then attempted to get
the. court to reopen the state's case,
but was again refused. Another rul
ing was made against him when he
moved to strike the testimony of
Moore that Rosser had glveu him a
check for $50, no statement 'ever
having been made as to what the
money was for. Several other mo
tions for the striking of testimony
were overruled. When he asked that
the Moore confession be withdrawn
because lt had never been otfered In
evidence, the state agreed.
Vanderveer was still arguing at the
noon adjournment.
The Jury has not been in the court
room since the state rested.

Taylor outlined the scope of the
conference as to take In all problems
dealing with the "great bodies of re
luctant migrants who must be ab

with a disregard of economic condi

This wave of migration, he said
caustically. Is forced upon the world
at large and "artificially stimulated

Calling forced migration of mi

Cause of the fire remained a mys
tery today. Mr. and Mrs. Straus had

was aflame. The fire spread so swift
ly that only a few trinket could be

They have given me Incontrovertible
proof that they now have a sub

as members In good standing."
fore it Is too late, to compel their
militarists to answer these funda
mental questions:
"What is the meaning of this ag
gression? What could be its objec
tives? How much has Japan gained,
how must lost? Can Japan banish the
whlto man from Asia and become
mistress of the Pacific?"
"The duty of atopplng this blood
shed rests exclusively on the shoul
ders of the Japanese people," Chiang
ooncludtd.
In another appeal, addressed to the
peoples of friendly nations, Chiang
expressed the gratitude of the Chinese
for aaslstance and expressions of sym
pathy, such as repeated denounce
ments of Japan, boycotts against
Japanese goods, refusals to transport
or handle Japanese products.
He asked whether Japan's "brutal
ities and crimes against civilisation
should go unpunished."

Bitter Problem.
Thus will be brought to the for

sponsors once sought to settle by
getting legislative action. Labor
groups, however, succeeded In bury

The Initiative seeks to define

a majority expresses satisfaction with
Its conditions, picketing, boycott! or
other coercive practices are declared
unlawful.
