enough to take care of any necessary
economic changes; that he was op-
posed to the adoption of Soviet plan
ming by America, and that he thought
his experience on his fathers farm
and his research qualified him for the
position to which the President had
appointed him. Finally the committee
reported the nomination favorably, the
only two opposing votes being those
Of Cotton Ed" Smith Of South Caro-
lima and Henry D. Hatfield Of West
Virginia.
The action of the committee as
sured Tugwelfs confirmation by the
senate, but the debate on the floor
was unexpectedly long and the attacks
on Tugwell were outspoken. Senator
Schall of Minnesota, for instance, said:
Agriculture demands and already
has experiment stations dealing in
actual crops, live stock, and markets.
1t wants no bold experiments In col
lectivism' by self-styled philosopher
who functions like three card monte
sharp who jumps upon a box with
three shells and pea and who en-
tertains the public with his cry, Now
you see it and now you don't. Who Is
the next CENT?
"Tugwell's general denial, and his
specific denials, in the light of his as
soclates in the field of political writ
ing, are absolutely worthless. They
are an insult to an intelligent jury.
He insults the United States senate
in order to gain high office from
which he can preach 'collectlvism' as
a substitute for American institutions
and the Constitution"

WHILE the delegates Of the steel
w workers unions were gathering
in Pittsburgh to vote on the threat
ened strike, President Roosevelt and
his advisers brought forward a plan
for an emergency law designed to
avert the wall10ut. 1t was admittedly
temporary expedient to give the
President an effective agency for the
consideration of Industrial disputes
arising during the life of the NRA.
Under the new bills terms, boards
selected by the President would be
empowered to order and conduct an
election, by a secret ballot, to deter
mine "by what person or persons or
organizations" employees may desire
to be represented in negotiations un-
der the collective bargaining features
of the national recovery act.
The proposed boards also would
have the authority to order produc-
ton Of pertinent documents and wit
nesses to give testimony under oath,
and their orders would be enforceable
by any United States court of compe-
tent jurisdiction, similar to like privi-
leges enjoyed by the federal trade
commission. Vested with authority to
prescribe their own rules and regula-
tions, the boards would be armed with
a penalty clause in the new law, set
ting $1,000 fine or year imprison-
ment, or both, for violation Of their
DEGREES.

Washington - Evidence that the
equipment forces of the Bell System
Companies are constantly on the alert
to pick up noises that might interfere
with telephone and radio transmission
is indicated by brief story appearing
il the radio gossip column in the
Washington Daily News recently.
IAN idea of the part played by the
telephone company in radio was at
forded yesterday when WJSV put on
a broadcast of hive Of bees, with a
talk on their behavior.
"The bees, of course, got on the air
first, and before the announcer could
explain, the telephone man was calling
WJSV to find out what was causing
that 'buzzing on the line.
In telephone Offices throughout the
country engineers and maintenance
men are constantly supervising the
telephone circuits so that the radio
programs being transmitted over the
$4,000 miles of telephone lines daily
will reach the homes of listeners-in
clearly and distinctly.
Madrid-Notable strides were made
in the development of telephone COM
munication in Spain during 1888. AT
the end of the year there were PSI, 230
te' phones serving this country as
compared with 270.o42 at the close of
the previous year, according to Foreign
Communications News.
Use of the telephone also increased,
there having been an average of l.
$4,000 daily calls during 1888 as COM
pared with l 1850 the previous year.
The number of employees was in
creased from 1906 to 1850. During
1888 long distance service was ex-
tended to the Philippine Islands and
ten other countries, making total of
forty-nine foreign countries with which
Spain may be connected.
Telephone service between the
United States and Canada and Spain
was inaugurated October 10, 1928.
The late President Coolidge talked to
King Alfonso, XIII, from Washington,
inaugurating this service.
Chieago-Interest in the activities
of Alexander Graham Bell, inventor
of the telephone, who died August 2,
1922, continues undated. This is evil
denced by the fact that thousands of
tourists from the United States, Can
ada and many foreign countries sign
the visitors register book at the Bell
homestead, former residence of the in
ventor at Tutela Heights, near Brant-
ford. Ontario, Canada, annually.
This historic residence, where DR..
Bell carried on much of his expert
mental telephone work, will be moved
from its precarious position at the
edge of sand and gravel cliff along
the tortuous Grand River to a point
some eighty feet nearer the roadway,
according to Telephony. In years past
the heavy push of ice along tn wind
ing river and the heavy spring food
waters have gradually eroded the bank
behind the homestead until it is feared
there is danger of the whole residence
and the museum it contains being
toppled into the swirling waters.
About year ago strong piles were
driven into the shore line as a pre-
stationary measure, but these do not
seem to be adequate for the purposes
intended, so it will be necessary to re-
locate the building in safer place.

loosed another blast at Administrator
Johnson and in effect recommended
his removal as head Of the NRA The
board said johnson had given the re-

in the war on depression; that he has
arbitrarily decreed life and death for
Industries, and that by arbitrary mod
ifications Of codes he has helped big
business concerns to Cypress their
smaller competitors.
"The rule OF the military commander
Is totally unsuited to the genius, hab-
its, traditions, or psychology of the
American people, and wholly inehectu-
al in meeting the present national
crisis" the board concluded.
The second barrow report covered
the retail dry goods, warehouslf1g. lum-
Der, cement, retail food, boot and shoe,
electrical manufacturing, bedding, Pc

plants against the warehousing, cleo.
