FIRST Contested
LIQUOR CASE HEARD
A. B. c. Board Postpones Deci-
sion Until March 13 for
More Evidence.

Argument on the first contested re-
tail liquor license was held yesterday
before the A. B. c. Board, but no de-
cision was reached, and 10 o'clock
March 13 was set for a reopening
of the case This was done to per-
init gathering of additional informa-
ton for and against the license.
The case affected the application
of Jacob Cohen for a license for q
grocery store at 801 Massachusetts,
avenue northeast. Those opposing the
granting Of the license included Jo-
seph D. Bixler, Evan H. Tucker, Ed
ward r. Blanchard, Rev. Walter c.
Hook and Rev. H. M. Canter.
Opponents had no complaint against
the character Of the applicant or the
conduct Of the grocery business, but
argued that the license should not be
granted because of the neaness OF
churches and residences.

POLICE CONNECTION
LAID TO WEIDEMAN
Representative Held Director of
Firm That Offered
Labor Spies.
By the Associated Press.


A charge that Representative
Weideman, Democrat, of Michigan
was a director of q private police
organization that had offered its
services at $50 a month to spy on
strikers and labor organizers was
made at an N. R. A. hearing last
night by Matthew Smith, an automo-
bile tool die official.
Smith said that despite this con-
nection, Weideman had posed as a
friend Of Workingmen and had offered
his services as an arbitrator in the
recent strike which tied up automo-
bile production in Detroit and Flint.
Smith read letter from the Dawn
Patrol" which he described as a police
organization, and said Weideman's
name was on the letter head.
This letter offered the services Of
several skilled mechanics who could
be employed in the plants and would
be sure to report if strikes were brew
ing, or If strikes were under way to
inform the employers of evey move
planned by the leaders.
This charge topped off a statement
In which Smith said the men of his
organization were convinced IN. r. A..
is scared of General Motors and Of
Ford"
I'VE tried the law, but we are dis
iIlusioned and have no faith in it
any more" he said after reciting what
he termed unproductive attempts Of
his organization to obtain Govern
ment aid in its campaign for better
working conditions.

PLANT
TO LACK BUYERS
House Refuses Funds for
Post Office to Buy From
ReedsviIIe Factory.
By the Associated Press,


Apparently the proposed furniture
factory at Reedsville, w. Va, for
which the Public Works Administra-
ton has allocated $525, 900, will have
no customers.
Unmoved by support of majority
leaders and assertions that the ex-
perimental subsistence project was
favored by the White House, q de-
termined House yesterday refused to
appropriate funds for the Post ONCE
Department to buy equipment from
the factory, the vote was 275 to ITO.
The plant was to be built with P.
w. A. money, to furnish the Post
Office Department with furniture. It
was advocated by Mrs. Roosevelt as
an experimental subsistence project.
Next Move Up to Senate.
The action of the House, which
struck out the same provision when
it originally passed the Treasury-Post
Office bill, in refusing to recede from
that position and concur in the Sen
ate's restoring amendment, leaves the
next move up to the Senate.
After defeating the , motion Of
Chairman Arnold of the subcommittee
in charge of the measure, to concur
in the Senate's amendment, the
House agreed to send the bill back
to conference with the other branch.
The general conference report on the
1920, 900 900 Treasury-Post Office bill
was accepted by the House.
One hundred and sixty-eight Demo-
Gratis joined 104 Republicans and
3 Farmer-Laborites in opposing the
motion to agree to the Senate amend
ments. Only 2 Republicans voted
with 106 Democrats and 2 Farmer
Laborites in favor of the project.
Both Majority Leader Byrns and
Chairman Connery of the Labor Com
mittee we're among those who sup
ported the furniture project In the
2 hours of debate.
Also entering the lists in support OF
the measure, was Representative

Arizona, Mrs. Roosevelt's school-day
chum and wedding maid Of honor.
II believe this Is a much broader
issue than a furniture factory ia
vored by the First Lady Of the Land" I"
Mrs. Greenway said. II think that
the experiment we make Is as much In
behalf Of the unemployed as it Is in
behalf of private industry ITSELF"
Byrns agreed that IF the work to
be done by these 125 men Is going to
be sufficient to destroy all the furni-
ture factories or even those making
post Office equipment, then they are
In a rather bad condition"
Representative Ludlow, Democrat,
Of Indiana, where there Is a private
factory which, it has been claimed,
the Reedsville plant would put out
Of business, led the opposition.
Simply a plunge into State Social
ism" was the way the proposal was
characterized by Representative Reed,
Republican, of New York, who as
serted Democrats would be refuting
their campaign promises of no Gov
eminent interference in business If
they voted the money.

WAR DEBT CAUSES
FLARE IN SENATE
Robinson Brands Proposal
"DeIiberate Attempt" to
EmbarraSS President.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
A proposal to seek war debt infor-
nation from the White House, chal-
lenged by Majority Leader Robinson
as deliberate attempt" to embarrass
President Roosevelt. rested today in
. Senate pigeon-hole.
It was sent to the Foreign Relations
Committee by a 5l-to-25 vote after
the Democratic leader and Senator
Robinson, Republican, of Indiana
engaged in another of their frequent
tilts over the war debts issue. After
the vote the Arkansas Robinson con-
ceded the Indianan's claim the reso-
luton would die in committee.
The Robinson resolution would re-
quire the President, If not incompati-
BILE with public interest, to inform the
Senate whether any promises had been
made for reduction of war debts and
If any recent attemps had been made
to collect back payments.
Pass Arms Measure.
Besides the war debt action, the
Senate within an hour late yesterday
passed the long-pending administra-
ton measure to forbid arms ship
ments to warning nations and tried
vainly to reach an agreement to vote
on the controversial St. Lawrence
Waterway treaty with Canada.
The arms embargo bill, requested
by President Roosevelt and passed by
the House last session, was approved
without word of debate. All objec-
tions had been removed by an amend
ment requiring the President tc
apply the ban impartially against all
parties to an international dispute
The House has yet to approve this
change before the bill goes to the
White House.
As originally framed, it would have
authorized the Executive, In concert
with other nations, to bar arms and
munitions to one country involved in
a conflict with another. This led to
objections on the ground it would
permit the United States to take
sides and compromise its neutrality
Waterways Treaty Discussed.
The st. Lawrence treaty came up
when Senator Lewis, Democrat OF
ILLINOIS,, an opponent OF ratification
asked Chairman Pittman of the
Foreign Relations Committee, in
charge of the administration pro-
treaty forces, If he was ready to set
q date for vote.
Pittman presented an unanimous
consent agreement to limit debate
March 13, and to vote not later than
6 pm. March IA, but Senator McNary
of Oregon, the minority leader, OBJ
jected to such an agreement on the
ground that too many Senators were
absent from the chamber.
Conflicting views on whether Pres
ident Roosevelt wants an early vote
on the pact have been emanating
from Senate sources. Some say Mr.
Roosevelt wants an early showdown.
Others, who feel the necessary two
thirds majority for ratification is still
lacking by half dozen votes or more
say the President may decide to post
pone q decision until next session
rather than risk defeat on the ques-
ton before the elections.

made this memory too painful for .

sense Of having escaped from humih-
alton. They are having an uprising
Of pride in the power and glory Of

The younger men are eager-too
eager, perhaps-to know about the war
in which their fathers died. It creates
an unfortunate impression on the
foreign mind to see in the very heart
Of Berlin two exhibitions devoted to
the horrors, machines and ghastly
relics Of that war. And yet I am
told by Germans and by English and
American friends who have lived long
in Berlin that there is no hankering
after war in the minds Of these
German boys, to whom all this
marching and drilling Is q good ad-
discipline. Nor at the present time
In the mind Of Hitler himself.
Germany Oness Friendship.
What is one to believe? Coming
from france, Wnere, 30 lar % ! Know,
every man. woman and child believes
to the very bones that Germany Is
preparing and arming for q new war,
it is startling to hear from German
lips that Germany has no quarrel
with France which cannot be easily
adjusted; that the Nazi leaders and
all Germany would welcome friend
ship with France, and that French
fears Of Germany have no reason
behind them because Germany wants
no more than that very security
against overwhelming odds In mill
tary power for which France IL al
ways crying.
What can one believe? It Is
enormously important that we should
find out what Is working In the Ger
man mind on this subject and tell
the truth, such as We f1nd 1t. I hope
to do so.

Na1 newspapers are losing circula-
ton and why foreign papers are being
bought in Berlin.
There is no doubt that under the
Hitler regime Germany has recovered
from that sense Of despair which ate
into its heart in the time Of imitation
and then again. after q few years of
hope, in the Generalization which
followed the world crisis In finance
and industry.
Some kind Of recovery has been
achieved as regards unemployment.
The NaZi organization has reduced
the appalling figures by something
like 100000. This has been done
partly by extreme pressure upon en-
ployers Of labor. They are not al
lowed to dismiss men, am told. with
out getting into severe trouble, even
though IN some cases their business
does not Justify this labor.
All Glasses Working.
Public works labor camps have alb
Sorbed hundreds of thousands of
young men who otherwise would be
eating their hearts out in idleness.
Unemployed relief has rescued these
men and their families from hunger
and misery. Above all, perhaps, there
has been q moral rescue of the des-
t1tute classes who were flung into ruin
and despair by world forces as well
as by the national breakdown.
Whatever one may think Of the
Nazi regime, this at least is splendid.
There Is no disgrace in poverty, no
distinction Of social caste in labor.
Young men of all classes march,
singing, shoulder to shoulder for this
voluntary work and make a game Of
1t. hard though it may be. That
surely is better than lounging around
the labor exchanges, listless and fed
up, as one sees in England.
All this may be uneconomic-I
don't know. It may not last. The
professional classes. I am told, are
poorer now than before. Germany
Is overstrained financially by having
to pay interest on private loans from
foreign countries which the Germans
were unwise to accept.
I'VE live on hope" a German said
to me today. That is at least some
thing. Before Hitler came to power
we had not even that. We really
do hope that things are improving
and that this Summer will bring the
beginning of prosperity"
War Dead Are Honored.
The NaI regime has many critics,
perhaps millions of them, but criti-
cism is stifled not only because Of its
danger, but because now without
Hitler there would be anarchy and
more things to suffer in q country
which has suffered much.
Last Sunday was historical in Ger
many for more than one reason. It
was not only the anniversary of Hit
ler's first call for action. but it was
chosen as the day of remembrance
for the German dead in the World
War. 1t is significant and will seem

The order for the dispatch of the
warships to the danger area came
from Benito Mussolini as premier and

An official communique stated:
I'm view of the events happening
in the Arabian peninsula in conse-
quence of the war between the Sau-
dian Kingdom and Yemen, and owing
to noteworthy Italian interests In the
