back 1.1o0 years is guarded night and

This Is the beautiful Basilica OF San

in the Venezia Palace.
During the daytime a. plainclothes
man stands outside the church scruti-

tiny is silent unless the visitor is carry
ing bundle that might contain a
bomb. Then 1t becomes a cross-exami-

Inside the church at the back Of each
side aisle sits another detective They
sit there for hours on end, with their
chairs tilted back against the wall. like
waiting f1remen of a hook and ladder
company. The light that enters the
nave windows is too religiously dim
for them to read.
Their eyes, too, follow the visitors.
If he is obviously tourist or a wor-
shipper, their seemingly perpetual posi-

a suspicious movement they instantly
approach.
When the church is closed for the
night the detectives search every cor

might have deposited an explosive nest

From then on two Carabinieri po-
licemen keep the edifice in view. Be-
sides, a heavy iron grill would keep
out almost anything but tank.
The church has one side exit. This
opens into the archway of the Venezia

ISSUE UNSETTLED.
Rainey Attacks Hoover's
Viewpoint and Threatens
War on Secrecy.

The controversy involving publicity
for the loan reports of the Reconstruc-
tion Finance Corporation f1ared again
yesterday when Representative Rainey,
Oemocratic House leader, issued
earning that Senate and House officials
may have to answer with their Jobs II
the loans are not made public.
Despite the Presidents statement ac-
cepting a contrary Interpretation by
some Senate leaders of the relief bill
publicity section, Rainey declared these
reports will be made public"
Hoover's View Recalled.
In a statement on the S2,l22, 100000
relief measure he intends to sign today,
Mr.. Hoover had said:
The possible destructive effect upon
credit institutions by the so-called pub
licity clause has been neutralized by
the declaration Of the Senate leaders of
all parties that this provision is not to
be retroactive, and that the required
monthly reports of future transactions
are of confidential nature and must be
so held by the clerks of the Senate and
House of Representatives unless other
wise ordered by the Congress when in
session
Rainey said:
The Presidents statement as to the
publicity feature of the relief bill is
absolutely erroneous. notwithstanding
the fact some Senate leaders made
statements on the floor of the Senate
as the President said. Newspaper re-
porters will be able to get the informa-
ton during the Summer by applying
to the clerk of the House or the secre-
tary of the Senate.
Possible Penalties Cited.
IF these officials refuse this informa-
tion they will be guilty of malfeasance
and subject to removal, in spite of the
Presidents statement. If they are
not made public We will have the clerk
of the House and the secretary of the
Senate on the carpet when Congress
convenes again.
