SENATE COMMITTEE
FOR INDEPENDENT
VETERANS BUREAU
Would Make It Response
BILE to President-Re-
Draft Complete.

After voting to make the pro-
posed veterans bureau an independ-
ent organization responsible directly
to the President, the Senate finance
subcommittee yesterday finally COM
pleted the redrafting of the Sweet
bill consolidating the various gov
ernmental agencies dealing with
soldiers relief.
The subcommittee will make its
report to the whole committee to-
day. 1t is doubtful whether the
whole committee will ratify the re-
port without considerable discus
sion of the amendment. making the
bureau a separate Institution, al
though the Presidents message may
hasten action. Another influence.
which may push the measure for
ward, is a newly developed tendency
on the part of some members to
view the Sweet bill as a handy in
strument for counteracting dtsap-
pointment among former service
men over the prospective sidetrack-
ing of the bonus.
The amendment making the vet
erans' bureau an independent or
ganization represents the chief
change in the bill as 1t passed the
House. This recommendation con-
forms to the recommend endations of
the Dawes commission. and is de-
signed, according to Senator Smoot,
OF Utah, chairman of the subcom-
mfttee. to eliminate red tape which
has hampered the work of admins
tering relief to disabled veterans.
The provision in the Sweet bill,
under which minor disabilities in the
IO-per-cent classification may be
treated at the expense Of the gov
ernment, was left intact by the sub
committee. This provision. accord
ing to Senator Smoot. will cost the
government about s343,o0o,0o0. No
change was made in the section
limiting the number of suboffices
of the bufeau to 140.

songs. cheers and fiagwaving kept
the crowd in a tumult for many
minutes. but eventually the police
succeeded in forming a lane through
which the delegates could be es-

TRADE RECOVERY

MIR. HOOVER SAYS
Urges Close Attention to
Economic Relations
With World.

BOSTON, July l2.-There may be
no recovery from the period Of de-
preston for many years to come
IL We neglect our economic rela-
tions abroad. in the opinion Of Her
bert Hoover. Secretary OF Com
merce. who delivered an address
before the National Shoe and
Leather Exposition here today.
The hard times that knock at
every cottage door came from Eu-
rope" he said. NO tariffs. no en-
bargoes. no navies, no armies can
ever defend US from these invasions.
Our sole defense is the prosperity
of our neighbors and our own COM
mercial skill. The recovery of our
foreign trade can march only in
company with the welfare and
prosperity of our customers"
.svernnents Are Helping.
He pointed out that many of the
war countries were stimulating in
dustry by the formation of govern
ment-encouraged combinations to
control exports and imports to eX-
ploit foreign markets. These com
bines are seeking concessions and
trade throughout the world.
Mr.. Hoover pointed out that i'm
provement in the manufacturing
situation abrNad would help the
United States through the purchase
of such raw materials as cotton
and copper. As for domestic manu-
facture, he said. the costs must be
reduced through efficiency and dill
geLt toll.
Ne Need for Fear.
Secretary Hoover said:
There is a feeling of some un-
easiness and even Of pessimism re-
garding the future OF our foreign
trade, in which do not participate.
Our exports and imports during
the last few months have dropped
nearly SO per cent in value from
the high water mark of a year ago.
Some of this decrease is due &c the
fall in prices relatively more than
volume; some of il to the temporary
world depression and some of IL
lies deeper.
I'm these times of troubled minds,
we find much conflict of opinion as
to the situation and its remedies.
Some extreme groups insist that in
asmuch as our exports comprise
but 10 per cent of our total produc-
tion, therefore our foreign trade
bears only this ratio to our eco-
nomic life, and that consequently
our true course is to forget IL and
to devote ourselves to healing our
internal economic wounds. Other
extreme groups consider that for
our internal situation the only REM
edy is restoration of our export
trade and they would undertake
desperate measures to accomplish
it. In either case we must not al
