Business Men in Uproar OF S ECRETARY ROPER thought COMMERCE the thousand “little business” men he invited to Washington to tell their troubles and needs to the President would hold a nice quiet meeting and form ulate a program that wouldn’t em barrass the administration. But they fooled him. Their opening session in the De partment of Commerce auditorium was decidedly riotous and finally the police were called in to restore order. Every man present wanted to make a speech and dozens fought for possession of the microphone of the loudspeaker system in order to tell what they thought was wrong with the country and what should be done about it. Mr. Roper tried valiantly to deliver a message of greeting from Mr. Roosevelt, but the throng refused to listen even to that. Assistant Secretary Ernest Draper had little better luck. Draper an nounced that Fred Roth, shoe man ufacturer of Cleveland, was tem porary chairman, and this led to further disorder because he was “hand-picked.” RFC Chairman Jesse Jones, who tried to speak, was cheered but soon retired from the room with Roper and Draper. Some of the business men who could make themselves heard con demned the administration for high taxes, reckless spending and un warranted attacks on industry and business. Others called on the Pres ident to declare he will not accept a third term. They demanded he get rid of his theorists. They voted to consider the problem of taxes, shouting down the attempts of Com merce officials to sidetrack it. Finally nine small groups were formed to discuss as many phases of the problem and carry their findings to the White House. These, with their topics and chairmen, were: Small loans, James G. Daly of Columbus, Ohio; wages and hours, Dr. W. K. Gunter of Gaffney, S. C.; fair trade practices, Howard D. North of Cleveland; government re search, Bernard McLean of Dallas, Texas; housing, D. E. McAvoy of New York; social security, O. L. Roach of Danville, Va.; develop ment and planning of small busi ness, Leslie E. Sanders of Orlando, Fla.; unemployment, Wallace Kim- bal of Long Island City, N. Y.; in stallment selling, R. P. Hastey of Chicago. Stitches in Time NTHONY J. DIMOND, delegate from Alaska, told a house com mittee that Japanese fishing opera tions in Bristol bay, off the Alaskan coast, will utterly ruin the salmon fishing industry there if allowed to continue. Some years ago the Japanese in vaded the waters of Bristol bay, Dimond said. They denied they were packing salmon, but were interested merely in “experimental” work. In 1936, however, American merchant seamen observed a Japanese steam er apparently packing salmon. Last year the Japanese began to op erate there in earnest, establishing floating canneries. Dimond is sponsor of a bill to ex tend the jurisdiction of the United States over the waters adjacent to the Alaskan coast in order to pre vent illicit fishing operations by for eign nationals. Japan Warns Foreigners J APAN’S embassy in Shanghai is sued a warning to foreigners to evacuate more than 100,000 square miles in central China “in view of the possibility of extensive oper ations.” This meant the battle north of the Yangtze river, which was fast developing into what promised to be the decisive battle of the war. The Japanese reported their troops had occupied Chefoo on the Shantung peninsula and that their planes had bombarded the Amoy area between Shanghai and Hong Kong.

Legislation to au thorize the expendi ture of $800,000,000 in naval construc tion was introduced immediately in both the house and sen ate, and steps were taken to provide the additional require ments of the army. It was predicted the Carl Vinson house would pass the expansion bill by the middle of February. Chairman Carl Vinson of Georgia called together his house naval af fairs committee and began hearings on the measure, certain that it would be reported favorably with little delay. The President in his message rec ommended: That the present naval building program be increased 20 per cent That congress authorize two ad ditional battleships and two cruisers during 1938. That congress authorize $8,800,000 for additional anti-aircraft equip ment. That congress provide for better establishment of an enlisted reserve for the army. That congress legislate to prevent profiteering in war-time and to equalize the burdens of possible war. Opposition to the bill in the house was expected to come from certain members from the middle western states. Tinkham of Massachusetts also didn’t like the program, saying it was one of offense, not defense, and that the President was prepar ing to get the United States into the League of Nations. Senators Vandenberg of Michigan and Fiazier of North Dakota de manded that Mr. Roosevelt make public the foreign policy he expects to follow behind increased arma ments.
