est of Supreme Court in
Privacy Test.

By the Associated Press.
With members Of the Supreme Court
closely following the attorneys. oral ar
gument was concluded today in the
overlapping cases. involving the right
Of the Government to use evidence OBJ
tanned by Federal agents by listening In
on telephone conversations.
BY permission OF the court, compa-
MES representing the telephone service
throughout the United States filed a
brief insisting upon the privacy OF the
telephone.
John r. Dore and Frank r. Jefery
appeared as counsel for those convicted
at Seattle Of violating the Federal pro-
hibition law, who had appealed to the
highest tribunal.
During the argument. one justice sug-
gested that evidence obtained By wire-
tapping seemed no different legally from
that obtained from a messenger, which
unquestionably could be used.
Recognizing the importance Of sus-
tanning its position, the Government
employed Michael J. Doherty Of ST.
Paul. Mimi, a member Of the former
firm of Solicitor General Mitchell. As
special counsel.
While denying that It approved wire
tapping generally as method for de-
tecting crime. counsel for the Govern
ment insisted that evidence so obtained
could be yaiidly offered in court.

his logic had been matched as they were
by the courtesy and the logic of the
mass OF the delegates Of Latin America.
He owes everything to them and we In
our turn owe everything to him. Be-
cause OF him, we have been delivered
from the one thing thought most to
endanger us in the world. We have
been standing politically aloof from Eu-
rope. 1t has been argued that thereupon
Latin America would Join with Europe
to pull us down.
The diplomacy Of Benjamin Franklin
at Paris In 1878 gave us the success of
our revolution and our independence
from Europe. The diplomacy OF Charles
Evans Hughes at Havana in 1928 has
given us a total assurance that we can
maintain any attitude we please toward
Europe without being stabbed in ,he
flank by our American neighbors and
brethren. It is, therefore. no exaggera.
ton whatsoever to say that today is the
day Of the greatest assured indepenc-
ence and liberty Of action and power
that the United States has ever had.
