JtETIKKMlCNT OF ROPER
SEKN MARKING KR.VS END
CALLED PERFECT SPECIMEN
OF CONTENTED JOB-HOLDDR
COMMERCE SECI1ETARV
ENJOYED HIS POSITION
RESISTED HINTS TO CJl'lT
UNTIL ASKED TO RESION
WASHINGTON, Dec. 10. An era
haa ended with the reluctant retire
ment of the honorable Daniel Cal
houn Roper from his beloved offices
at the commerce department. For
years, ploua old Uncle Dan haa been
a mere museum piece a ourloua relic
of the earlier time when Franklin
Delano Roosevelt was not a new
dealer but a Democrat. And now,
at leat, hts transformed friend has
pried Uncle Dan out of his comfort
Able Job, to make way, very prob
ably, for the arch new dealer of
them all, Harry I. Hopkins.
It's really sad to see Uncle Dan
go. If only because he enjoyed being
secretary of commerce so obviously
and frankly that his delight was pos
itively picturesque. He was the per
fect specimen of the contented Job
holder. Just why he waa contented It was
sometime 'difficult to know. So far
as administrative power or Influence
on public policy were concerned,
Uncle Dan might Just aa well have
been In Kamchatka for the last five
years. He longed to be a great man.
He longed to figure In the news of
the day. His whole department used
to be mobilized before his press con
ferences. Every smidgeon or possibly
significant Information used to be
scratched up. Uncle Dan himself used
to begin, "I want to be frank with
you gentlemen," and then tell all
he knew. . But, unhappily, he never
knew much of great Importance. He
could only figure as an amiable old
fellow with a handle to his name,
who had the odd habit, at the most
worrisome Junctures, of announcing
firmly:
"All la for the best In this beat of
possible worlds."
In a way, Uncle Dan 'a cheerful
unimportance really increased his
value aa a picturesque exhibit. It
made him tn even bejter example
of the curious system by which the
great offices of the American state
are parceled out, not to those best
qualified to hold them, but to men
who have helped train the right pol
itical contestant.
There were three reasons why
Unole Dan was named secretary of
commerce. The flrBt was that he
picked Roosevelt early, and plugged
for him hard. The second was that,
at a moment In the 1932 campatgn
when cash to pay the broadcasting
companies waa needed In 24 hours.
Uncle Dan strolled into Jim Farley's
sanctum and plunked a roll of sev-

Foreign Minister Dan
gers Open Door Policy
WASHINGTON, Dec. II). (AP)
Secretary MorgeJithiiu announced
today new credits to China In the
face of Japanese protests.
The secretary ald he was ex
tending Indefinitely an expired
agreement to loan China dollar
exchange. This was In addition
to a $23,000,000 loan given China
Inst week by the export-import
i bank to finance purchase of
trucks and other materials In
this country.
By the Associated Press
A warning to the United States
its export-Import bank's plan to
lend $25,000,000 to China would be
a "very dangerous political gesture"
added to strain between Washington
and Tokyo while Italian colonial de
mands on France again worried Eu
rope. Japanese Foreign Minister Hachlio
Arlta described the proposed loan
to China as "an Inopportune and
regrettable act." He declared Japan
might regard It as "a form of politi
cal pressure" and that Tokyo "un
doubtedly will find In It new grounds
for strengthening the proposed new
order In East Asia."
The new order means closing the
open door In China against which
the United States haa protested ve
hemently. New Anti-Jew Steps
New antl-Jewlsh measures develop
ed in two countries of central Europe.
The Rumanian foreign office dis

The Hungarian cabinet gave flnaj

to parliament Friday, which would
Impose new social and economic re
strictions on Hungary's Jews, pos
sibly limiting their voting rights,
also.
The Jewish population of Rumania
is about 1,000,000; of Hungary about
450.000.
Italian Victory Seen
Gravity of the situation between
France and Italy Is summarised by
these statements:
In Rome, by the Relation I Inter
national!, organ of the institute for
the study of foreign policy Italy
will win her territorial claims against
France within ten months.
In Paris, by Georges Bonnet,
French foreign minister if either
France or Britain were "the object
of unprovoked aggression," neither
would hesitate to come to the other's
aid.
A French "no aurrender" bloc or
ganized forces to resist cession of
any French or British territory to Italy
amid suspicion that plans already
were afoot to turn over all or part
of British and French Somallland
to Premier Mussolini.
Some observers expressed fear II
Duce'a silence on the territorial Is
sue In a speech yesterday meant only

And does the nation want a presi

COUNSEL ARGUES

Social Security Board Asked
to Wthhold Approval of
Compensation Act Until
Picketing Ban Repealed
SALEM, Dec. 19. (AP) "It thai
courts throw out our antl-plcketlng
bill It la nothing but dirty, rotten
polities," Governor Martin said to
day at the chamber of commerce In
an address In which he bemoaned
a tendency on the part of the peo
ple to become soft and thus maks
way for a dictator.
"We did nothing but pass an
English law for Industrial peace
when we voted overwhelmingly for
our antt-plcketlng measure." be said.
WASHINGTON. Deo. 19. (AP)
The AFT. and OIO demanded today
that the social security board with
hold approval of the Oregon unem
ployment compensation act until th
state repeals Ita so-called "antt
plcketlng" law.
Appearing at a hearing called by
the board on the Oregon compensa
tion act, Lee Pressman, counsel for
the CIO. arM Joseph A. Pad way. gen
eral counsel for the AFU charged
the antl-plcketlng law would wreck
labor unlona In the state and was
oontrary to the federal policy of pro
tecting the working man from com
pany subjugation.
Non -Conformity Been
The Oregon labor law was approved
In a referendum this fall. It outlaws
sympathy strikes and pitta other re
strictions on strikes.
Pressman said there was no doubt
but what the law was not In eon"
formanco with the provisions of the
social security act and many work
em could be denied unemployment
compensation If they refused to ac
cept Jobs made vacant by disputes
between labor organizations or
through sympathetic atrlkea.
Pressman said that It would be
necessary "for the state of Oregon to
completely repeal the Initiative (la
bor disputes law) to satisfy the soc
ial security act' and that a study
of the measure made It "perfectly
clear that It practically rendered un
lawful every bona fide tabor organ
lsatlon In the state."
Padway branded the- Initiative ft
"studied attempt to write out of the
law all guarantees for the rights of
workers."
"Oregon haa legalised the repre
hensible yellow-dog contract and,
brought Into existence again tha
company-dominated uii'on," he said.
"We cannot permit a start of thla
thing In this day and age after the
declared public policy of labor pro
tection."
Dunn tn Defense
T. Morris Dunn, chairman of the
Oregon unemployment compensation
commission, told the board that It
was the opinion of the Oregon attor
ney general that the Initiative did
not apply to the unemployment com
pensation act and that the board
should therefore approve the meas
ure so that the state might continue
to participate In the federal pro
gram. He aaid that If the board de
nied certification, the state would
be forced to close Its unemployment
offices because of the lack of federal
aid In administering the program
amounting to about $600,000 annu
ally and that employera who were
now receiving a 90 percent rebate on
unemployment compensation taxes
paid to the federal government to
offset those paid to the state for Ita
program would stand to lose about
18.000,000 annually by being forced
to pay the full federal tax.
Dunn said the state unemployment
compensation commission waa much
disturbed by the present oase be
cause It expected that some 30,000
persons would file for claims In Jan
uary. "If the social security board denies
certification of our program because
of the Initiative, which was not In
tended to apply to the act, the blow
will fall on the workers of the state,"
he said.
