Government Moves to Broad
en- Scope of Inquiry Into
Company's Transactions.

Motion of Government counsel to

unfair trade practices against the
Aluminium Co. of America has been
taken under advisement by the Fed
eral Trade Commission, following pro-
tests by defense attorneys that the
Governments move is final elort 10
revive a collapsed case.
The motion for the amendmenC OF
the complaint, which was originally
filed in 1925, was made by Rlcharo r.
Whitley, commission counSei, during
hearing yesterday on the case. o
Outlines Scope of New Charges.
The amended complaint would IN
clude charges that the Aluminium com
pany seeks to acquire bauXlte CepOSltS
to prevent competition and to purchase
waterpower sites which might be used
by competitors in the manufacture OF
aluminium; that the company endeaV-
ors to control the market for foreign
aluminium within this country thereby
restricting substantial competition IN
the foreign product, and that the COM
pany sells it's products to subsidiaries
at a price below the cost of production
and that this practice is for the pur-
pose of harassing competitors. with
the resultant effect of gaining and
maintaining a monopoly Of aluminium
raw material, ingots and sheets.
Defense Counsel Protests.
William w. Smith. chief counsel for
the respondents, charged that the COM
missions attorney had failed to prose-
cute the case on the original complaint
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1928-09-25

because it had collapsed. He declared
that Whitley was attempting to bolster
it up through amendments based on
suits in Massachusetts and New York
brought against the aluminium COM
pany by George D. Haskell of Boston
and the Baush Machine Tool Co, OF
which Haskell is president. If the
amended complaint should be allowed,
Smith contended. the company would
be compelled to defend itself before
the commission and it's defense to the
Haskell suits would be disclosed. He
charged that this would be an abuse
of discretion and procedure.
Smith contended that should the
commission decide upon further action
against the company it should be done
IN a separate complaint.

CHICAGO CITY HALL
COMES UNDER PROBE
Corporation Counsel and Assistant
Quizzed in Pay Roll
Padding.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, September 25.-The deep
digging spade of the special grand
jury probing for politico-criminal dirt
in Chicago elections struck today for
the first time into the City Hall.
Samuel Ettelson, corporation coun-
sci, and James w. Breen, his first
assistant were called before the jury
to discuss reported pay roll padding in
the city legal department. Frank j.
Ioesch. directing the inquiry, said
Ettelson and Breen would be ques-
toned concerning the testimony OF
several score witnesses who said they
received pay from Ettelson's office, al
though they did little or no work"
Fifteen persons whose names appear
on the corporation counsel's pay roll
testified yesterday. Loesch said they
were questioned as to the nature of
the work they did, and that in most
cases the testimony indicated that
while the witnesses had been active
in the April primary campaign for
candidates favored by the city admin
stration, their duties with the legal de-
partment were negligible.
Loesch said the pay roll investigation
would be finished today, so that the
Jury. in its few remaining days, may
concentrate on vice and gambling con-
ditionS.

low-cost production. Comparing his
observations abroad with the survey he
has made since his return to the United
States, Senator PhippS said:
This year we again have banner
crops, and they are being marketed at
good prices Contrast this with the de-
plorable conditions existing in Great
Britain. There the number out of en-
ployment is gradually increasing and the
government is under the necessity of
paying out doles to the 100000 of I'M
employed. Even those who are working
in Great Britain are earning such small
wages that they can barely purchase
the necessities of life and cannot think
of INDUCING in the luxuries which are
now so generally enjoyed by the people
of the United States.
with the exception OF few luxu-
ries, the United States can produce
every article it consumes. Shall we
produce for our own uses, or throw
our markets open to the cheap labor
products of foreign countries? That is
the great question of tariff, and the
Republican party has always stood firm
" for a protective policy. With tariff
protection for our manufacturers and
by using machinery giving mass pro-
duction, we have developed our indus
tries to a remarkable degree, so that
we have been able to ship our surplus
products to foreign markets.
Beet Sugar Important.
"The present tariff act was intended
to afford needed protection to the agri-
cultural industry In some degree it
has fulfilled that purpose"
Senator Phipps said the products OF
agriculture in Colorado this year VIII
total in value $130O00,000, of which
beet sugar represents a substantial
part. Senator Phipps said Colorado
cannot successfully produce beet sugar
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1928-10-31

without a fair measure of tariff protec-
ton, and that, even with the present
rate of duty, 1--WE are now importing
twice as much sugar as the total ton
mage produced in the United States
Continuing his discussion of tariff, SEN
ator Phipps stated:
Democratic candidates openly assert
that the farmer must now sell his prod
ucts on the open market, without the
protection of tariff. This statement
is not merely misleading, it is positive
ly untrue. All the important products
of the farm are protected under the
present tariff law, although some OF the
rates are inadequate, whereas the
principal articles purchased by the
farmer, such as farming machinery and
manufactures of leather, are especially
exempt from duty
Under Republican control. it must
be admitted that we have made re-
markably rapid progress in recovering
from the burdens of war, that our peo-
pie as a whole have prospered and are
living under much better conditions
than in earlier years, enjoying not only
the comforts but many of the luxurles
of life"
