TEXT OF PRESIDENTS ADDRESS

and repelled from others. A great
volume of uneconomic and waste
full transportation has attended,
and the cost increased according
ly. The grain milling and market
packing industries afford ample
illustration, and the attending
concentration is readily apparent.
The menaces in concentration are
not limited to the retarding influ-
ence on agriculture. Manifestly
the conditions and terms of rail-
way transportation ought not be
permitted to increase the undesir-
able tendency. We have q Just
pride in our great cities. but we
shall find a greater pride In the
nation which has a larger distri-
button of its population into the
country, where comparatively self
sufficient smaller communities
may blend agricultural and manu-
featuring interests in harmonious
heIpfulness and enhanced good
fortune.
The right OF labor to organize
is just as fundamental and neces-
sary as is the right of capital to-
organize. The right of labor to me-
gotiate, to deal with and solve it's
particular problems, in an organf
lied way, through its chosen |
agents, is just as essential as is
the right of capital to organize, to !
maintain corporations. to limit the
liabilities of stockholders. Indeed.
we have come to recognize that !
the limited liability of the citizen |
as member of a labor organiza-
tion closely parallels the limita-
tion of liability of the citizen as
stockholder in corporation for
profit. Along this line of reason
ing, we shall make the greatest I
progress toward solution of our
problem Of capital and labor. !,
In an industrial society such as
ours the strike, the lockout and
the boycott are as much out of
place and as disastrous in their re-
suits as is war or armed revolution
in the domain of politics. The
same disposition 10 reasonableness,
to conciliation, to recognition of
the other sides point of view, the
same provision of fair and recog-
nized tribunals and processes,
ought to make it possible to solve
the one set of questions as easily
as the other. / believe the solu-
tion is possible.
Reclamation.
There is yet unreserved approx
imately 200,000,000 acres in the
public domain, 2O,O0O,O00 acres Of
which are known to be susceptible
Of reclamation and made fit for
homes by provision for irrigation,
The government has been assist
ing in the development of its re-
naming lands, until the estimated
increase in land values in the ir-
rigated sections is fully $500,O00,-
900 and the crops of 1920 alone
On these lands are estimated to ext

Under the law authorizing these
for development, the
advances. are to be returned, and
1t would be good business for the
government to provide for the re-
of the remaining 20,-
100000 acres, in addition to ex-
pediting the completion OF pro-
iects long under way.

greatest reformation In govern
ment practices since the beginning
of the republic.
There Is pending grant Of au-
thority to the authoritative branch
Of the government for the fund
ing and settlement Of our vast
foreign loans growing out Of our
grant Of war credits. With the
hands OF the executive branch
held impotent to deal with these
debts, we are hindering urgent re-
adjustment among our debtors and
accomplishing nothing for our
selves. l think 1t Is fair for the
congress to assume that the ex-
ecutive branch Of the government
would adopt no major policy in
dealing with these matters, which
would conflict with the purpose OF
congress in authorizing the loans,
certainly not without asking con-
gressional approval, but there are
minor problems incident to pru-
dent loan transactions and the
safeguarding OF our interests
which cannot eNsn be attempted
without this authorization. 1t
will be helpful to ourselves and it
will improve conditions among our
debtors If funding and the settle
ment of default interest may be
negotiated.

Merchant Marine Planned.

1t is not my thought to lay the
problem in detail before you TO-
day. 1t is desired only to say to
you that the executive branch of
the government, uninfluenced by
the protest of any nation, for none
has been made, is well convinced
that your proposal, highly intend
ed and heartily supported here, is
so fraught with difficulties and
so marked by tendencies to dis
courage trade expansion, that
invite your tolerance of noncom-
pliance for very few weeks until
plan may be presented which
contemplates no greater draft up
on the public treasury, and which,
though yet too crude to offer it to-
day, gives such promise of ex-
panding our merchant marine that
1t will argue its own approval. 1t
is enough to say today that we are
so possessed Of ships, and the
American intention to establish
merchant marine is so unalterable,
that a plan of reimbursement, at
no other cost than is contemplated
in the existing act, will appeal to
the pride and encourage the hope
of all the American people.

Denounces Jones Act.
The previous congress, deeply
! concerned in behalf of our mer-
chant marine, in 1920 enacted the
existing shipping law, designed
for the upbuilding of the Ameri-
can merchant marine. Among 9TH
er things we provided to encour-
age our shipping on the world )
seas, the executive was directed to
give notice Of the termination of
all existing commercial treaties in
order to admit of reduced duties
on imports carried in American
bottoms. During the life of the
act no executive has complied with
this order of the congress. When
the present administration came
into responsibility it began an
early inquiry into the failure to
execut the expressed purpose of
the Jones act. Only one conclu-
sion has been possible. Cranky,
members of house and senate,
eager as l am to join you in the
making of an American merchant
marine commensurate with our
commerce, the denouncemens "
our commercial treaties would in
volve us in chaos of trade re-
iationships and add indescribably
to the confusion of the already
disordered commercial world. Our
power to do so is not disputed, but
power and ships, without comfy
of relationship will not give us
the expanded trade which insep-
arably is linked with q great mer-
chant marine. Moreover, the ap-
piled reduction in duty, for which
the treaty announcements were
necessary encouraged only the car
rying of dutiable imports to our
shores, while the tonnage which
unfurls the flag on the seas is
both free and dutiablel and the
cargoes which make a nation emf
nent in trade are outgoing, rather

it is vital to the preservation OF
many of our own industries, which

We cannot go far wrong when we
base our tariffs on the policy OF
preserving the productive activi-
ties, which enhance employment

Again comes the reminder that
We must not be unmindful of
world conditions. that peoples are

pear before him to tell what he knew
of the legislation.
When Wallstein asked Lusk if Wal
ters talked about the bill to him, the
witness replied:
Il don't recollect talking with Sena-
tor Walters about the bill. He might
have spoken to me about it. If he did
1t did not make any impression on me.
He visited in Albany and l saw him
about the Senate. He may have talked
to me about it. / don't recollect."
WAS any sum of money paid to you
directly or indirectly in connection
with this legislation?"
There was none"
Senator Lusk said that Detectives
Gegan and Brown had told him that
two other detectives, whose names he
did not recall, were talking about
money in connection with the bill after
it had passed the Senate and was in
the Rules Committee in the Assembly.
He said that he told them to tell the
two detectives to leave Albany and that
If they obtained any proof of the rails
ing of any slush fund or it's use to let
him know about it and he would sub
nit the matter to the District Attorney
of Albany County.
Senator Schuyler Nj. Meyer, who on
Sunday announced in reply to letter
from Commissioner Hirshfeld. who
started the investigatioM that the
committee would not take up the in
vestigation, said that Hirshtield was
conducting one-sided inquiry by not
calling witnesses who could have given
testimony favorable to Lusk, and that
that was the reason the committee had
departed from his declaration of the
day before.
Two detectives were also called. as
was Archibald Stevenson. One of tho
detectives was Gegan, who swore that
ne told Detectives Thomas Conkling
and Bernard Devaney in Albany that
II they. did not stop their talk of the
need of money to pass the legislation
he would arrest them and take
them before the District Attorney of
Albany County. He said that he also
told what he had said to them to
Senator Lusk, and that one of the de-
tectives had told him that they were
holding up the legislation in the AS
sembly Rules Committee to "prove to
him that he was liar in saying that
money was not necessary to pass the
legislation" He said that after he
told this to Senator Lusk the Senator
Immediately went to the Assembly

Told Them to Get Out

Gegan said that he then went back to
Devaney and Conkling and told them
to get out of Albany or he would arrest
! them
The witness said that at a meeting
OF the Detectives Endowment Associa-
tion late in April Devaney and Conk-
ling said that they had spent $4,000.
and wanted the money to be paid bv
the association through assessment of
the membership. He said that he arose
and said:
Stop that talk or I'll make an ar
rest right here"
Gegan volunteered that it was his
belief that no money was ever paid
and that Conk.ing and Devaney we're
trying to swindle their brother officers
Commissioner Hirshfeld said yester-
day that the slush fund charges never
reached the attention of Police Com
missioner Enright until July 0-three
months after Gegan testified that he
first heard talk Of slush furd. En-
right at once brought it to the atten-
tion OF Hirshfield, who took up the in
vestigation of the charges on July 10.
AT the investigation conducted by
Commissioner Hirshfeld Detective Ed
ward r. McAuliffe yesterday testified
that he had helped to obtain one OF
the $4,000 notes which was used as
collateral to secure the loan of $4,000
which some of the detectives raised
lie testified that the money raised
was to be repaid by an assessment on
the entire membership Of the Detcc
tlves' Endowment Association. He said
chat at the meeting of the association
on March 25, before any of the leeisla-
ton was introduced, there was gen.
eral understanding among the detec-
tlves that the money was to be repaid
