OCALLACHAN APPEALS
TO STATE DEPARTMENT
To Reconsider Decision That He Was
Without Rights as Political
Refugee.

Washington, d. G., Feb l5.-Counsel
for Donal O'Callaghan, lord mayor OF
Cork, sought to-day to have the state
reconsider its decision that
their client was without rights as a
political refugee and subject to depor.
tation because of his arrival in Amer
lea as a stowaway without pass
port.
Department officers said careful con-
sideration would be given the claims of
0'Callaghan's counsel, but it was init
mated that the department still re-
CARDS the case as one for the depart
ment of labor to pass upon. 0Callag-
han has been cassed as seaman by
Secretary Wilson and was ordered to
leave the United States last Friday. He
is now registered at hotel here.
Labor department officials were still
reticent as to the status of 0'Callag-
hans case, but some of them said Sc
crecy regarding the extension Of time
for his department had been decided
upon so he could get away without the
knowledge of the British government

PLOT TO BLOWUP YACHT
USED BY THE PRESIDENT
UNCOVERED BY ARREST
SEC. DANIELS FAVORS
MONOPOLY OF AIR
Pleads for Federal Control of All High
Power Radio Stations in the
Country.

Washington, ID. c., Feb. l5.-ln a
plea for federal ownership of all high
power radio stations, Secretary Daniels
in letter to Chairman Page of the
Senate naval committee to-day de-
clared that 'if there is one thing in
which there should be a monopoly 1t is
monopoly of Xe air, and this monopoly
should not be given over to private in
terests."
The letter was in answer to a request
from Senator Page for an opinion on
the resolution introduced by Senator
Poindexter, Republican, Washington, to
regulate the operation of and foster the
development of radio communication.
Asserting that he was fully aware Of
the opposition that existed to govern
ment ownership of public utilities, Mr.
Daniels declared that experiences be-
fore and during the war demonstrated
that radio stations within the United
States were being used for the trans
of unneutral messages.
Il feel that it is unnecessary for me
to point out to you the consequences
which might arise from such practices y
the latter said. One grave danger that
confronts us is the possibility, | might
even say the probability, OF combina-
tion, through interlocking directorates
of private cable interests with the pri-
vate radio interests, for it is not incon
that the interests that own
and control the cables might also be in
terested in a radio corporation whose
special interests might be served by the
provisions of the pending bill. Should
such combination of interests exist,
need not tell you that the interests of
the public would suffer"
Amateur radio stations should be un-
der government control, Mr.. Daniels de.
clared.
