TARIFF HEARING
Reduction in Ten Cent Tariff
Would Injure Domestic
Industry Is Testimony
Washington, Oct. 17. AP
Additional congressional opposi
tion to the granting of tariff con
cessions on agricultural products
from Argentina was voiced today
at a hearing on a proposed trade
treaty between the United States
and the South American re
public. Urging no reduction be made
In the tariff of 10 cents a pound
on turkeys, Representative Rob
ertson (D-Va.) told the commit
tee for reciprocity information
the United States would have an
Immense crop of 32,000,000 of!
the birds this year.
Would Hurt Farmers
Senator Byrd (D-Va.) said that
while he had been an ardent
iupportcr of the trade agreement
program, he felt Argentina
should not be permitted to send
turkeys into this country and in
jure the domestic industry.
Robertson said he also had
upported the trade agreement
program and added, "but cer
tainly there was no intention on
the part of any one who sup
ported this program to injure
farmers."
"Ten cent dressed Argentine
turkeys could go to every mar
ket," Robertson said, "and would
drive down the prices of Amer
ican turkeys which must be sold
promptly." j
He said the Argentine turkeys
were Inferior, but a small ship-'
ment would depress the whole
market. I
Principle Periled
Senator Schwellcnbach (D- i
.Wash.) told the committee he be
lieved In and supported the reci
procal trade agreement policy of
the government, but was anxious
the law be administered so as
not to arouse antagonism of a
great percentage of the nation.
"The members of this commit
tee must realize," he said, "that
If the 23 percent of our popula
tion engaged in agriculture and
the additional 15 per cent di
rectly dependent upon ngrlcul-'
ture become too antagonistic
against the method of adminls-!
tratlon of this law. the contfress
will eventually terminate the
law and the whole principle of
reciprocal trade will be for
feited." 10

Philadelphia, Oct. 17. (AP)
Tlans to train 500 new Amer
ican surgeons each year, to give
the average Income man the
highly skilled surgery which
has belonged largely to the rich
and the indigent, were an
nounced by the American Col
lege of Surgeons today.
' The plan is a three-year sys
tem of super-training in sur
gery which It Is hoped will ulti
mately raise the crop of com
pletely trained new surgeons
yearly to COO or more and
spread them Into the rural dis
tricts Instead of having only
enough to concentrate In the
cities.
The college announced the
names of 3K1 hospitals. Includ
ing five In Canada, which have
been approved for this kind of
training. The move sets up an
official medical standard in sur
gery, to replace voluntary train
ing methods of the past which
produced many surgerical super
men but at the same time others
who were not fully trained.
Three years study of surgical
training problems preceded to
day's selection of the 3R1 In
stitutions. This list Is not fixed
and it is expected to grow as
the idea of better-trained sur
geons spreads.

Hitler ''Madman
In Despair," Is
Refugee's View
Spokane, Wash., Oct. 17
(AP) Reichsfuchrer Adolph
Hitler is a "madman in de
spair," Klaus Mann, literary
refugee from Germany, and
son of the 1038 Nobel peace
prize winner, Thomas Mann,
said here last night.
Speaking to a Spokane din
ner club, Mann added "Hitler
is not going to win this war,
and ho knows it."
"Otherwise, why should he
be so anxious 'for acceptance
of his so-called peace pro
posals. Hitler is not only a
madman, but a madman in de
spair. "The Soviet Russian-German
pact," he added, "may be
historically significant, but for
Hitler It was the beginning of
the end. Hitler finds himself

Wall St. Report
New York. Oct. 17. (AP)
The stock market's war infants
leaped from their cradles today
and put on a rallying sprint of
1 to more than 4 points.
The list got off to a quiet
start, but bidders for steels, air
crafts, rails and specialties soon
became insistent and quotations
and volume mounted.
Turnover of around 1,800,000
shares was the largest in about
three weeks.
Helping pull the market out
of the doldrums, where It has
beon since the first of the month,
brokers said, were the latest
news despatches telling of Nazi
air raids on Scotland and the
British naval base at Scapa Flow,
together with the onslaught of
reich troops on French positions.
All of this added up, apparently,
to revive the idea among specu
lative forces that the recently
so-called "unreal" overseas con
flict had now become "real."
