Newspaper reporters should
not have to reveal to every Tom.
Dick and Harry the sources Of
their confidential information"
With this declaration Senator
Simeon D. Tess, of Ohio. one Of
the strongest leaders of the Re-
publicans in the Senate, today
avowed his Staunch support Of the
bill introduced by Senator Arthur
Capper, of Kansas, designed to
prevent the falling Of reporters
who refuse to become shoppers
and prosecuting witnesses on the
basis OF information they have
gathered for their newspapers.
Bill Long Needed, He Says

Capper measure is felt by its pro
@onents to be great forward
step. Tess Is Repub Ilca whip

his admitted ability has tremen.
dous influence among his col
leagues.
Il have felt for many years
that there was q crying need for
d measure such as that which
has been presented by Senator
Capper," declared Senator FeSS
today.
II am glad that at last some
definite steps are being taken to
protect by law the confidential
communications which are made
to newspaper men in the course
Of their profession. The protec-
ton Of these communications Is
one Of the essentials OF q truly
free press"
No License for Scandal
The Ohio statesman asserted
that 1t should be borne in mind
that the Capper bill would not
give the newspapers any license
to print scandal, nor would 1t
free them from the present limi-
tationS set UP by the laws Of libel.
THE trueSt friends Of q free
press do not advocate that it be
granted license" said the Sena-
tor. They ask only that it be
permitted to carry on its duties
to the public without undue
harrassment and interference.
adoption OF the Capper bill
will insure, to my mind, that
newSpapermen will not longer
have to 90 to Jail and suffer
embarrassment and incOn.
venience because they insist ON
adhering to one Of the oldest
tenets Of their professional code
Of ethics.
Every man in public life knows
that newSpaperman can be
trusted to maintain confidence,
and many Of them have gone to
extreme lengths in order to pre-
serve this reputation. 1t should
not be necessary that they go
to Jail. They should receive the
guarantee Of the law that they
will not be punished for main
tanning the honor Of their pro-
feSSion."

LEADERS
CALLED
BY GEORGE r. HOLMES
International News Services

President Hoover has assumed
command of a distinct Govern
ment effort to keep American
business on an even and prosper
Gus keel until it can work itself
free from the shoals into which 1t
floundered by over-indulgence in
stock market speculation.
Recognizing the dangers inner
ent in the situation caused by the
prolonged collapse Of securities
prices, Mr.. Hoover on Wednesday
demonstrated his faith in the
basic SoundncSS of the country's
business structure by committing
his Administration to immediate
reduction of personal and cor
porate taxes 10 the extent OF $780,
O0O. 900.
Conference Next Week
Today he was following up this
reassuring step by preparing for
d general conference in Wash
lngton next week with some Of
the Nations leading i11dustrialists,
economists, agriculturiStS, and
business experts, at which def
mite corrective steps will be
mapped out to carry the country
over this difficult period.
Together the President and
his conferees will canvass the
situation. make certain specific
recommendations, and again re-
assure hesitant credit that the
business structure is still sound
and needs only the sunshine Of
renewed confidence to Withstand
existing conditions.
1t is Mr.. Hoover's theory that
the remedy for stale business is
redoubled efforts to obtain more
business, together with the pSy-
chology Of confidence. He aims
to stimulate the one, and restore
the other.
Sees Future Guaranteed
"In market booms," he said, in
announcing his forthcoming con-
ference, I'VE develop over-opti-
miSm with a corresponding re-
verse into over-peSsimism.. They
are equally unjustified.

CAPS SEASON
BY JUNO KINERK

The climax of Washington's
football season arrives today
with the annual homecoming
game Of Georgetown. AS has been
the case the last three years,
West Virginia University again
is the opponent Of the Hilltop
eleven. The kickoff is at 2
o'clock in Griffith Stadium.
Inasmuch as there is no horse
racing in Maryland and only the
George Observation-Disclosures game
in Central stadium as the only
other sporting event OF the day,
q record attendance is likely.
Based on past form of the two
elevenS, Georgetown ought to be
returned a handy winner. How
ever, the Blue and Gray have
had two mighty hard games in a
row previous to today'S contest
and the MountaineerS will be
fighting hard to win, since a vic
tory over the Blue and Gray
will redeem an otherwise dis
appointing year for them.
