Howard Taft, whose ambition from

When Taft, soncltor-general, and
Roosevelt, civil service commission

friends in a bond which profoundly
affected American political history.
The breaking Of the bond was des-

YOUNG PLAN WINS
UNEXPECTED AID
Revisionists Given Setback
at Secret Meeting of
Reichstag Committee.
BY NEGLEY FAESON.

BY Radio to The Star.
BERLIN, Germany, October 30.-The
Bruening governments announced in
tention first to revise Germany's own
finances before attempting to ask any
revision of the Young plan met with
sudden and entirely unexpected support
last night in a secret session of the
Foreign Relations Committee when it
secured In ever instance different ma
jorttie$ against the divided but de-
termined opposition attack on 1t to
change its attitude on the German
reparation payments.
BY some observers here this Is hailed
as a victory which indicates in the fu-
ture q similar government success on
the floor of the Reichstag itSelf-vic-
tories which would do much to restore
peace in troubled and uncertain Eu-
rope. BY others 1t is challenged as
showing the uncertainty in the govern
ment's real strength-the fact that 1t
had to secure q different combination
of party support to defeat each motion
and that 1t Is q mere coincidence that
the government came through unde-
featsd.
The voting clearly showed that the
forces of extremism cancelled them
selves out and that the moderate gov
eminent forces, by finding an ally
either in one group or another, won
majority. This is the cabinet strategy
which Chancellor Heinrich Bruenlng
intends to carry to the floor OF the
Reichstag itself-in lieu OF attempting
to form one great single majority bloc.
Last nights success, therefore, Is ad-
mitted to be a strategic victory on MS
part. Io-.
the five motions of dissent were as 1ol-
lows:
i, A Communist motion to cease I'M
mediately all payments on the Young
plan.
2. A National Socialist Hitlerites' mo-
ton to take all measures to renounce the
Young plan as we'll as the treaty OF
Versailles.
8. Three other motions, actually from
the German moderates, hsaded by the
Economics party, which Is inside the
government itself. These were virtually
Identical and demanded Immediately, or
as soon as possible, new negotiations to
revise the Young plan.
Disarmament formed the other and
perhaps the more important discussion
of last nights secret session, at least as
far as immediate consequences are con-
cerned, clearly indicating a sitter Ger
man attitude on this question at the
forthcoming preparatory disarmament
committee.

HUGHES DISCUSSES
INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS
Community Interests Made
Up of Collective Strength,
Says Chief Justice.
By the Associated Press.

Chief Justice Hughes said in an adj
dress here today that the greatest diff
ficulty in the American system of gov
eminent Is not in maintaining the prop
er balance between Nation and State,
but in 'reconciling" the interests of the
community and the requirements Of
individual liberty and private initiative
from which are derived the collective
strength and progress"
Speaking before the newly organized
Association Of Interstate Commerce
Practitioners, the Chief Justice said:
1T has been characteristic of our civ
ilization that adaptions of the legal
structure are generally belated, and it
could be sufnciently convinced Of the
need Of administrative agencies with
broad powers In order to enforce stand
ards which legislatures found 1t inprac-
ticable to apply directly"
II an agency like the Interstate Com
merce Commission had been established
earlier I'VE would have been spared
many of the most difficult of our pres
emit problems" he said, adding.

ton the comprehensive knowledge and
technical skill, and, above all, the rea-
soriableness, which will give us the
desired fruits Of regulation and avoid
both the indifference Of routine and
arbitrariness of an unintelligent or
despotic bureaucracy"
Despite an experience which should
have been disillusioning, he continued,
I'VE still are likely to be fascinated by
paper plans, and to forget that our
ultimate interest Is not in this or that
political program, but in finding that
rare combination of intelligence and

than of specific rules"
Perhaps there is no greater need,
speaking of the bar generally. he
added. than professional self-restraint.
and this is most readily appreciated
when men of ability are brought into
constant and intimate association.
"One of the reasons for the success Of
the British administration Of justice Is
the compactness Of the bar" he said.

titioners was attended by $50 members
from all sections Of the United States.
