STATE DEPARTMENT.
COHESION IS SEEM
Complexities in Procedure
Expected to Pass With
MoIey Out of Post.
BY CONSTANTINE BROWN.

With the official resignation of Prof
Raymond Moley from the position of
Assistant Secretary Of State, the poll
cies Of the State Department will be
more co-ordinated. it was reliably
stated today, since henceforth there
will be only one guiding authority
that of Secretary Cordell Hull-nat-
urally under the control Of the Presi-
dent.
The frequently hesitant policies of
the State Department we're due mostly
to the fact that the ideas of the Secre-
tary of State were frequently in con-
fiict with those Of the retiring Asf,stant
Secretary, who was closer, personally,
to the President than the Secretary
himself. That Is to say, that Mr.. Moley
was frequent visitor at the White
House, where he had an opportunity to
impress Mr.. Roosevelt with his own
ideas, than was Mr.. Cordeu Hull. Mr..
Moley was not an ordinary Assistant
Secretary. In charge of a certain section
Of the State Department as were his
colleagues, Carr, Caffery and Payer. He
had finger In every pie.
Views Often Differed.
Every time an important interna-
tional question cropped up, be it the
debt question or the Economic Confer
ence or disarmament, Mr.. Moley took
hold of it, worked day and night at it
and was able to present to the Presi-
dent clear report which naturally
represented the professors own views
on the subject, views which in most
cases were at variance with those of
the Secretary of State
In the foreign diplomatic corps in
Washington Prof. Moley's powerful in
fluence on Americas international af-
fairs was soon known and most of the
foreign Ambassadors and Ministers felt
that they could not send an adequate
report to their government unless they
had discussed the matter which inter-
ested them with the Assistant Sec
retary.
1t happened more than once that
information given to them by the Sec
retary Of State was contradicted by his
assistant and experience showed these
diplomats that 1t was Mr.. Moley's ideas
which usually prevailed.
Created Complications.
Under these circumstances naturally
the work of the State Department was
frequently rendered more difficult than
in ordinary circumstances when the
Secretary Of State had the final word.
Permanent officials of the State De-
partment did not know what to do.
They had been accustomed to transact
ing business with assistant secretaries
fully aware of the fact that they repre-
sented the Secretary of State and that
their views were the views of their chief.
They soon learned, however, that the
assistant Secretary'S views were his own
and more frequently conflicted than
agreed with those of Mr.. Hull. The
consequence of this situation was that
a detrimental uneertaintude prevailed
in the State Department as far as its
officials were concerned.
It is for this reason that Mr. Moley's
departure from the State Dc pa. lment is
not regretted by any Of the permanent
officials.

ATHENS, August 28-The Athens
appeal court today fixed tomorrow
morning for hearing the application for
formal sanction for Samuel insults
arrest in connection with American ex-
tradition proceedings.
The return of the former Chicago
utilities operator. who was detained

The point involved in the pending

detention pending the outcome of the
extradition proceedings.
The Athens authorities went through
Mr.. Insults apartments and took away
some papers. They said this was
purely a routine matter of no conse-
Quence.
Deputy Pericles Rhalli was retained
to assist in the defense of the former
Chicagoan, who was detained Satur-
day in second attempt to extradite
him. He was in a nursing home on
advice of physicians

HULL DENIES REQUEST.

BY the Associated Press.
RAYMOND Moley today was officially
out of the State Department position,
from which his activities were shifted
weeks ago, but Secretary Corden Hull
said his assistants resignation was not
at his suggestion.
From his mountain vacation place IN
Virginia Hull sent word to the press he
had no information beforehand that
Prof. Moley contemplated resigning" as
Assistant Secretary of State. He further
said in his formal statement:
II may add that can accurately
say in this connection that have not
at any time offered the slightest sug-
gestion to the President or Mr.. Moley
relative to any present or future change
in the official status Of the latter as
Assistant Secretary of State.
Wishes Moley Success.
81 wish Prof. Moley every success In
his new field and will at all times gladly
cooperate with him in every feasible
way, both in that field and all possible
Joint efforts in support of the President. "
But Hull's statement did not alter
the view held by associates here that
the return to private life of President
Rccsevelts busiest adviser was triumph
for the quiet Tennessean with whom
Moley had differed on major policies.
These differences began with the
Roosevelt administration when Hull
became the Governments chief expo
nent Of internationalism and low tariffs
as contrasted with Moley's national1sttt
leanings. They reached a climax al
London, where Moley sped as an ennis
sary from Mr.. Roosevelt, cnly to return
within q week.
Soon after Hull's return Moley was
assigned to special work at the Justice
Department. Going outside the diplo-
matte sphere had been the rule rather
than the exception for the so-callet
brain trust" head, but 1t was rumoree
then that Moley soon would be out o.
the State Department.

Revisionist extremists had contem-
plated recourse to murder. overshad-
cwed all other issues here as the
eighteenth World Zionist Congress en-
tered its second week of deliberations
yesterday.
A determined drive was begun by

the world Zionist organization.
The testimony was given in the pre-

cable from Achimier's attorney in
Palestine. stating that the remarks read
to the court as extracts from his diary
were, in reality, just notes on gossip
and comment in Palestine recorded
after the murder Of Dr. Arlosoroff, was
submitted to the investigating body.
The interest of the congress in the
ArloSorof case was heightened when
Dr. Leo Motzkin. president of the con-
gress, interrupted the long-drawn- out
session Tor a consultation of the preSi-
oium as to whether to admit a declara
ton by Berl Katzenelson, Palestine
labor leader, on developments in the
hearing of the three men accused of
the murder.
After deliberation, he announced that
the declaration would be postponed
while the presidium obtained authorita
tive information from Palestine.
The Laborites, who with 40 per cent
of the total representation, are the
largest single faction at the congress,
are to make strong demand that the
ReviSioniSts be eliminated from a all

1t was learned that the Democratic
Revisionists, a faction of the Revision
ist party headed by Nicer Grossman
had abandoned the Revisionist title and
would henceforth be known as the
Jewish State party. Establishment Of
a Jewish state in Palestine is the chief
Revisionist goal
The development of Palestine has
definitely emerged from the expert
mental economic stages into the pro-
Guctive and profit-bearing stage, said

The report said immigration into
Palestine increased 1876 per cent over
the previous year 193D. Imports and
exports increased 20 per cent. Jewish
deposits in banks increased from 40 to

Forest Service Hit
For Political Play
In Census of Bears
Author and Hunter Ques.
tions Biological Ac-
curacy of Count.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The Forest Service today stood
charged by John M Holzworth, New
York bear hunter and author, with
having been guided by politics instead
of biology" in taking its census Of
grizzly and big brown bears in Alaska.
The service last week announced that
its census showed the two species had
increased from 5000 to $500 from 1881
to 1892, but explained that this is a
matter Of estimate rather than count
ing noses"
Holzworth contended that this would
be 'biologically impossible" He is
president of the National Association
of Wild Life Conservationists and hunts
bears for museum specimens and secures
bear stories.
"An increase of 500 in year would
be the most to be expected" he said.
Female bears reproduce only once in
two years. 1t is doubtful if there are
5000 of these big bears in Alaska. and
it Is doubtful If the number is increas-
ing at all because of the heavy inroads
OF hunters"
THE service" he said. "is attempt
ing to give the impression that pro-
lection is not needed for the animals
in Alaska because Of concessions to
paper pulp promoters
Holzworth's statement was called to
the attention of Secretary Wallace's
office, and it was said there that the
census and also the concessions, which
Holzworth said can be revoked, will be
looked into"

question before the electors. The State

PANAMA RESENTS
j. s. CANAL ACTION
"Greater Government Func-
ton Than Necessary"
Hit in Editorial.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PANAMA. Republic of Panama, Au-
gust 28-The Star and Herald de-
clared today that all Panama burns
with deep resentment because the
United States is exercising greater
governmental functions than necessary
in the Canal Zone
This statement was contained in an
editorial discussing an article by Will
liam R. Castle, jr.. former American
Undersecretary of State, published yes
terday in the New York Herald Tri-
bune In the article, Mr.. Castle said
the United States could no more per-
init the canal to be endangered by
tries" than it could submit tamely to
attack from overseas"
Danger Not Seen.
I'VE quite agree" the Star and
Herald said, that the United States
may not permit the canal to be en-
dangered by revolutions, but we can
not see how it could be so endangered
by the surrounding countries.
The only country surrounding the
Panama Canal is the Republic OF
Panama There is no danger of revolu-
ton in Panama. At least. there is no
danger of a revolution of such magni-
tude as would involve the whole coun-
try and jeopardize the safety of the
canal
"Of course no one could say how far
an exasperated people, harboring the
conviction that they are being un-
favorably dealt with by another people
from whom they should receive only
fair play, justice and consideration,
might go in an outburst of long pent-
up resentment.
But such danger is not incurable
It can be quickly remedied on
basis of good will and the conviction
that it is necessary to live and let live
People Not Foolhardy.
Though We are convinced that the
Panamanian people never would be SO
foolhardy as to undertake open and
violent revolt against the situation
created on the Canal Zone through the
exercise of greater governmental func-
tions than are necessary for the con-
maintenance, operation, sani-
tation and defense of the Panama
Canal, we are equally convinced that
every sector of Panamanian life burns
with deep resentment against the crea-
ton of such a situation in open con-
tradiction to the solemn pledge given
the Panamanian people in 1904 by the
then President, Theodore Roosevelt.
THE Panamanian people experience
as much pride in the Canal as any
citizen of the United States and only
mad men could be expected deliberate
ly to seek to injure or destroy that
which they value and cherish"
The editorial declared the rights
granted the United States by Panama
never were intended to enable the
United States to exploit all the COM
mercial benefits of the Canal enter
prise. to the absolute exclusion of the
Republic of Panama from any partici-
patton in such benefit"
