Hugh T. Nelson, insurance man,

executive secretary of the in.

citizens. T..
Next to the chairman, DR.. Cary
T. Grayson, who selected Mr.,
Nelson, the executive secretary
probably will have more to do
with the plans of the Roosevelt
Inauguration than any other
District resident.
The appointment Of Mr.. Nelson
was a surprise to many local
Democrats. He has not been
active in Democratic politics here
and the local organization had
others in view for this assign
ment.
Mr.. Nelson has no extensive
acquaintance with the leaders Of
the District Democrats, as they
stack up today. He came to the
Capital about 10 years ago.
Before that, in Richmond and
Virginia, he was a special repre-.
sentative of the New York Under
writer's for q quarter Of a century.
He still keeps up an insurance
office here but says he has prac-
tically retired"
AT the general convention of

Lauds Bowers, Hearst Editorial
Writer, for Dubbing Countries
"AmeriCa's Foreign Legion"

With squads of detectives
scattered through the galleries,
Senator Hiram w. johnson
(R.) of California launched a
debt debate in the Senate this
afternoon by savagely assailing
France and other allied nations
for repudiating their World
War debt payments to the
United States.
A heavy detail of Metropolitan
police detectives were in the gal.
lerieS while a squad of Depart
ment Of Justice agents patrolled
the corridors. Authorities appar.
emily were fearful of a demon
Stration.
Lauds Claude Bowers
johnson recounted the history
Of the Liberty loans, the proceeds
of which were loaned to Americas
war allies.
American citizens, he said, "gave
until it hurt"
He praised Claude G. Bowers,
historian and Hearst editorial
writer, for his phrase Americas
Foreign Legion" to describe those
seeking cancellation and reduction
Of the war debts.
The "insistent, persistent, iras-
chile, denunciatory activities Of
these interests to bludgeon the
American people and Congress
into cancelling the debts were
scathingly denounced.
Days Are Forgotten
The debtor nations, in securing
loans from the United States, he
asserted, promised not only to re.
pay the money with interest, but
to pay the coast of floating the
loans in this country. He said:
"Ah, how grateful were our
associates in the war when we
went to their assistance not y
only with men, but with money.
II recall how the agents Of
France came to us and said
they stood with their backs to
the wall and prayed for our
assistance.
81 recall how grateful they
were when the blood Of our
first American troops was shed
on the fields of France.
"All those days are forgotten
now by the American Foreign
Legion"
johnson said the debtor nations
made no protest over the terms Of
the obligations when the loans
were negotiated. He said:
''NO question then of reduc-
ton, revision, commission, con.
ference or cancellation.
"NO question then of protest
They walked up to the counter,
cheerful, smiling, and signed the
obligations"
After the Armistice
Three billion dollars of these
loans, he emphasized, were made
after the armiStice. He declared:
Don't forget that because
some of these defauIting ma

amounts loaned them after the

johnson told the Senate to re-
call the history of the war debts

the highs in a late reaction.
Leading industrials were depress-

Railroad issues were buoyant in
the early trading, many making new

close with Union Pacific off more
than 2 points from the previous
close. Utilities staged a substantial
rally and then dipped from the
highs.
Steel shares were firm most of
the day as steel company execu-

any lasting results. Very reluc-

Laboratory tests show ALL-BRAN
contains two things which over
come constipation: "Bulk" to ex-

help tone the intestinal tract.
The "bullz" in ALL-BRAN is much
like that of leafy vegetables. In

which gently clears the intestines

anything Whitney answered.
"What position did he hold to

SPEED AND SAFETY
PROBLEMS IN CARS
Quicker AcceIeration Also Is
Demand of Public
in Autos.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
DETROIT, May 2.-How to meet q
steadily growing demand for quicker
acceleration, greater speed and ease of
handling, and at the same time MAIN
tain the safety factor, has been one of
the major problems Of motor car
engineers.
Few. if any, cars now built have a
maximum speed of less than 80 miles
an hour. The development Of this
speed capacity has not been SO much
the outcome of competitive construc-
ton as Of demand from the retail
trade Most automotive engineers be-
Neve there is little likelihood, however,
that there will be any further increase
in the maximum speed possibilities Of
the average stock car.
Not so long ago-when motor cars
were being sold in multiple million
lots-there was no little talk Of special
high-speed roadways connecting certain
populous centers. Some Of these, in
fact, had been constructed and con-
tributed to the development Of speedier
stock cars.
There was a general assumption then
that these original high-speed arteries
would be developed on a mammoth
scale for vehicles that would speeG over
them at rate comparable to the pres
ent racing range. Just as the produc-
tion of motor cars has been sharply
cut down by the economic situation.
however, so, too. have plans for special
high-speed roadways.
Engineers, whose function 1t Is to
develop the speed capacity Of the
present-day motor, seem generally
agreed that all the speed that can be
handled with safety has been put into
current models. Probably the greatest
Evening star., 1933-05-02

single factor IN increasing the safe
speed maximum Of the motor cars has
been the sturdier construction Of tires
in the last few years.
Many Of the worlds leading automo-
bile racers have asserted that racing
speed has been limited only by the
tires. Four wheel brakes appeared as
better tire construction made 1t possible
to extend the horsepower Of the average
motor vehicle. Safety glass was another
factor automotive engineers devised to
meet the greater risk Of crashes that
come with higher speeds.
Speed and economy Of operation ap-
pear to be the major interest of the
prospective buyer Of today's motor cars,
according to distribution executives.
How many miles will 1t make on .
gallon?" and How fast will 1t go?"
seem to be the deciding factors in
clinching a sale after the price has
been agreed upon.
Thus, along with the speed with
safety problem, the engineers also have
had passed to them from the sales
division the matter Of stepping up the
miles per gallon possibilities Of current
models.
Various factors have been considered
and worked out in the search for
greater mileage. Along with the lighter
weight pistons, connecting rods and
crankshafts, current models are showing
q greater absence Of nat surfaces. sharp
curves and angles, and otherwise pre-
senting as little wind resistance as pos
sible with riding comfort.
