BUSINESS CONNECTIONS
TO BE STUDIED FRIDAY
Mcclellan, Who Wrote Probe Reso-
luton and Cited Old Statute,
Attends Meeting.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The Senate judiciary committee,
after deciding today that Andrew w.
Mellon had right to remain in the
Hoover cabinet without his nomination
being resubmitted, deferred until Fri
day a determination of whether his
business connections would bar him.
The committee was almost unanimous
in its view that Mr.. Mellon could carry
on in the cabinet of Herbert Hoover
without renomination-the course fol-
lowed by the President-but it failed
to reach a. decision on whether the
Secretary was serving in violation Of
an old statute forbidding the Treasury
head to be interested in trade or COM
merce.
The question also was raised over
Mr.. Melons connections with the Over
holt Distillery Corporation, of which
he was at one time a stockholder.
There Is an old statute forbidding a
revenue officer to be engaged in the
whisky business.
Suggestions were advanced that the
Secretary be called before the commit
tee to detail the extent of his business
holdings, but these were countered by
reminders that Senator Reed, Republi-
can, of Pennsylvania personal friend
OF Mellon. had declared the Secretary
had resigned his directorships in corpc-
rations and was interested in business
now only as Stockholder.
McKellar Present.
Senator McKellar, Democrat Tennes-
see, author of the investigating reso-
luton which the Senate adopted March
S without roll call vote, attended the
meeting, although he is not a member
of the committee. .~
The Friday session then was called
by Chairman Norris.
Most of the discussion today was
said to have been confined to the legal
aspects of the McKellar resolution, with
little or no debate behind the closed
doors on the actual merits of the case
against Mellon.
No Vote Is Taken.
No vote was taken on the question of
the authority of President Hoover to re-
tain Mellon and James j.. Davis. Secre-
tary of Labor, in ONCE from the Cool
idge cabinet without resubmitting their
nominations to the Senate. but it was
reported that the committee virtually
was unanimous that this course was
supported by innumerable precedents.

DEbENTURE PLAN
SPLITS LEADERS
Constitutional Right of Sen
ate to Initiate LegisIa-
ton Questioned
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
With the Senate agriculture COM
mittee still considering the advisability
Of including the export debenture plan
in its farm relief bill, leaders today
began to differ over whether the
Senate has the constitutional right to
initiate such legislation.
Representative Smell of New York,
one of the Republican leaders of the
House. in discussing the plan after a
conference with President Hoover de-
clared in his judgment the system con-
templated the raising of revenue and
therefore could not be constitutionally
initiated in the Senate.
Take Issue With Smell.
A number of Senate agriculture COM
mittee members, however, took issue
with Snell's Interpretation and were
inclined to look with little concern upon
the suggestion. Chairman McNary Said
that rather than revenue raising. 7the
plan was revenue taking" and in his
opinion could be suggested first by the
Senate.
The debenture plan is a system of
issuing certificates to exporters to be
exchangeable at par for payment of
import duties. Under the debenture
section framed by the Senate commit
tee the exporter would receive the world
price for his product plus the amount
of the debenture certificate. which in
the case of wheat would be approx
mately 81 cents per buShel, or half the
tariff on wheat.
There was considerable belief at the
Capitol today that the Senate commit
tee would adopt section giving the
proposed Federal Farm Board the op-
tional right to put the debenture plan
into operation if it saw fit. There was
a report that the committee already has
had a test vote showing only three
members against it, but all inquiries
along this line were referred to Chair
man McNary, who merely said he had
gained the impression that a majority
OF his committee favorS the plan.
Approval Anticipated.
So far no word for or against the
debenture plan has been received by the
committee from either Secretary Hyde
or any other spokesmen for the Presi-
dent. Most of the committee members
now hold that unless a strong criticism
of the plan is sent to the Capitol it will
be approved.
MT. Oueli, WHO was CaIler at Ut ?
White House today, said that since it
was revenue legislation it would have to
originate in the House of Representa-
tives and that the House had no in
tention OF putting such a proposition
into its farm relief measure.
The House agriculture committee last
Saturday rejected a motion to incor-
porate the plan in its new farm bill
by vote of 10 to 4.
I'VE are going to follow the recon-
mendations of the President" Smell said
today. There are two main PROPOSE
tionS, farm relief and tariff, which we
will consider. OF course, we will act
upon suspension of the national origins
clause of the immigration act, congress
sional reapportionment and the 1880
census as soon as those matters have
been transmitted by the Senate"

SOVIET ARMS CUT
PLAN IS SPURNED
Even Germany SHES Away.
Viewed at Geneva as
Visionary Scheme.

BY the Associated Press.
GENEVA. April 1.-THE Soviet plan
for reducing world armaments, pre-
sented to the preparatory disarmament
commission here by Maxim Litvinoff,
vice commissar for foreign affairs, got
chilly reception today.
Even Germany, which constantly has
protested that she was disarmed by
treaty and that other nations are not
living up to promises to lessen their
superior ornaments, felt it was unwise
to indorse the Russian idea of agreeing
now on these reduction figures.
Count Won BernStorff thought this
should be left to a later international
conference. At the same time, how
ever, he gave hearty approval of the
principles of the Russian plan.
Japan, Chile and France rejected the
Soviet project as impracticable, because,
they contended,- it failed to take reali-
ties into consideration.
Germans Marking Time.
The Germans are hesitant about s,ig-
geSting appointment of a special sub
committee to discuss the naval problem,
although they may do so later. One
idea is that the committee should meet
here June IS.
The Soviet proposals would entail
Scrapping 100000 tons of American

when they take to the sea. will have a

OF FourfoId Nature.
The Soviet proposals, he explained,
have four points:
First. Reduction instead of mere limi-
tation of ornaments.
Second. Extensive reduction of arma-
mentS for larger countries and lesser
for smaller nations.
Third. Destruction of offensive arma-
ments, while the purely defensive are
left untouched.
full positions of the nations.
He called attention to the limit of
10000 tons set for German warships
by the allies and said their action proved
that size was large enough for defense
and small enough to restrain the owners
of such craft from aggressive warfare.
Needs Skilled Doctors.
j. Valdes- -Mendeville of Chile said he
looked upon the Soviet draft project as
a surgical remedy which needed the
presence of skilled doctors. He opposed
referring the plan to the technical COM
mittee and expressed belief the COM
mission should follow its own draft

ance with geographical and other con-
ditions and urged adherence to the rre-

offering the best hope of progress.
He said he was convinced that the

the horse, in seeking to concentrate at
