ball, tennis and track.
Claude began his musical career
as member of Wilbur Sweet
mans Orchestra Immediately after
graduation in 1926 where he re-
NAMED until 1927. Upon leaving
the Sweatman aggregation he or
ganized his own band his first. II
was not until the early part of
1890 however that young Hopkins
first tasted the real sweetness of
success and fame but once he did
here was no stopping him as he
was filled with the faith to carry
on. the determination to win at
any cost and the perseverance TO
sick until the end which briefly
maybe called his secret Of success.
As time progressed his fame
grew and then in 1881 he wrote a
song that was destined 10 put him
among the cream of the crop in
the musical world. the song was
TN Do Anything For YOU" which
today he uses as his theme song. A

Smoke In My Pipe" Harlem
Serenade." "Mush Mouth" and
Mystic Moan"
In March 1882 he picked up a
kid named Orlando Robertson. who
was then practically unknown. but
whom destiny had lead to Claude
because the genius OF Claude as a
musician and leader coupled with
the natural ability of Robertson
has done much for Claude Hop
kins and his Roseland Ballroom
Orchestra.

CLEVELAND, September 2o.-Gov-

facture was advocated by Senator
Arthur Vandenberg of Michigan in an
interview here yesterday.
1T is coming. and 1t will be
hastened, hope. by the present sena-
torial investigation" the Senator was
quoted b. reporters as saying at the
airport. He was hyilg from WASH

"Our investigation has only begun"
Senator Vandenberg continued. mo
one knows how far 1t will 60, but I
am confident 1t will 60 far enough to
sharply awaken interest, nationally
and internationally, in the problem Of
peace.
The investigation has aroused some
resentment abroad. I believe this will
cool when 1t Is realized that We are
working, not against any one nation,
but for the common good Of all"

mercy of the munitions makers"

was Secretary Of the Treasury, and the
latter by Thomas Jefferson. who was
Secretary Of State" the Senator said.
THE major items Of the New Deal
do not express the philosophy Of either
Hamilton or Jefferson, but Of Karl
Marx" he asserted.
Fess asserted that mot until the
coming Of the present administration"
has any step been taken toward "abro-
cation Of the Constitution"
Threefoid Indictment.
He declared that under the New
Deal an effort has been made to re
strain liberty Of speech and the free
dom Of the press" to deny through
the A. A. A. the liberty of agriculture
to proceed without control Of WASH
ington bureau" and to deny the
rights Of the citizen" under the
N. r. A.
THAT provision Of the Constitution
that provides that Congress shall make
the law, that courts shall interpret
them and that the President shall en-
force them is to be destroyed for a
new form of Government where the
laws are to be made by the President

forced by the President" he said.

members of the Long machine. On
our side we have nothing to fear from
Longs so-called investigation Of the
city Of New Orleans. We could have
obtained an Injunction against the
investigation, but we didn't bother.
Our hands are clean. Long stole the
election, but we won't accomplish any
thing by probing"
Walnasley said he had come to New
York to preside at q meeting Of the
United States Council Of Mayors, and
announced that the two most i'm
portant questions up for discussion
were unemployment insurance and
old-age pensions.
II am in favor Of BOTH" he said,
"and ! believe plan Of cooperation
between the Federal Government and
local authorities can be worked out
whereby both can be put into effect"
He was asked about the charges
made by members of the Long faction
in Louisiana that New Orleans had
been unable to handle its own relief
problem.
"rhat is nonsense" he said. "The
Federal authorities asked us II we
could provide for our own idle and
we said we could. We have. Long
tried to take the funds we had raised
for city relief for general State pur-
poses. but he didn't get away with it."

Information In the possession OF

volved the building and operation
under his supervision half a dozen
factories to produce chlorine, mustard
and other gases.
The outcome of his proposals, which
conceded with dispute between
Colombia and Peru, Is one Of the
things the committee seeks to learn
from Goss. The extent Of United
States Ordance Engineers sales Of
poison gases to China as well as
other Latin-American countries also
Is engaging their attention.
The company also sells machine
guns and this phase Of its trade, par
ticularly domestic business, was an
other angle the committee sought to
tackle.
Alleged Smuggling Probed.
Through Young. youthful president
of Federal Laboratories, and Frank s.
Jonas, the company's New York ex-
port agent, the committee late yes
terday developed evidence purporting
to show Federal Laboratories repre-
sentatives smuggled tear gas, riot guns
and cartridges into Argentina two
years ago in violation Of presidential
ban: that the concern lobbied in
national and State capitals against
proposed legislation restricting the
use of tear gas, and that it had paid
commission to Lieut.. Comdr. James H.
Strong, then an American naval
officer, for services to the company.
A statement that French, English
and other foreign governments &C
lively supported and encouraged the
sale in Latin America Of munitions
produced in their countries was made
by Jonas. He complained that Amer
lean firms receive little help from
their officials in meeting such COM
petition.
Jonas said he had been told Of
French activities many times during
ican countries.

governments are keenly interested also
in the sales of munitions their coun-
tries produce" Jonas added.
Cites English Policy.
Carlton w. Rich, another repre-
sentative of Federal Laboratories,
broke in to tell Senator Bone that II
am told the English Ambassador in
terested himself in a prospective sale
in Montevideo to the police force and
even arranged TO have Montevideo
police sent to London for training"
He explained that Federal Labora-
tories also was attempting the sale
of tear gas and other weapons to the
Uruguay authorities.
Young protested the introduction Of
letters filled with references to bitter
and critical statements to his con-
cern-and even by his own agents.
The committee paid little heed to his
complaint.
Jonas squirmed in his seat while
letters he had written to Raoul Leon
federal agent in Buenos Aires, were
read, in which Jonas called Young q
"ninny" among other things.
Young laughed heartily.

What Has Happened in N. Y.
Under the NRA Laundry Code

Laundry, Pearl White, Central
Laundry and the Phoenix. Only in
the Quick Service did they have
strikes because the plant was shut.
The other plants worked at full
capacity. The drivers who belonged
to Local $40 worked as usual. The
result-all these strikes were lost
with the exception of the Phoenix
where the boss signed a contract
with the business agent of Local
$50 and the workers did not know
about it until the boss told them
and sent some of them down to pay
due to Local $50. The wages and
hours remained the same.
But in Brooklyn Local 1873 called
also a strike at the Colonial and
Sunshine Laundry, which is con-
trolled by the same boss, Mr.. VI
man, from the Quick Service and
Pearl White and Champion Linen
Supply. And do you remember Mrs.
Pinchot, the governors wife of
Pennsylvania, having her picture
picketing the Colonial Laundry in
Brooklyn and when this did not
help, MIR. LaGuardia, our super
Democratic Mayor, stopped the
water at the Sunshine and Colonial
Laundry to enforce the Section Ia
and the State Minimum Wage Law.
And after all the newspapers fea-
tured this friendly labor move the
water was reopened and the work
ers again arrested and beaten and
the strike lost. Otu of 800 work
ers who went out on strike in the
Colonial and Sunshine Laundries
on investigation we found only
about rs old strikers got their jobs
back.

Telephone Co. Fires
Many, But Continues
Paying High Dividends
by a Worker Correspondent

by a Worker Correspondent
NEW YORK.-Is it right for a
utility like the telephone company
to dismiss 40 per cent of its per-
sonnet and at the same time main
tain it's usual dividends and large
official salaries without reducing its
rates? Are you justified in spread
ing false propaganda when you
laud the relations of the utilities to
it's employees when all the facts in
the case prove the reverse conten-
ton?
I was employed by the telephone
company for ten years and support
a wife and two dependent children
and because my position became
unbearable / went over the heads
of my superiors which resulted in
the find that suddenly turned out
to be crook, a rogue and what
not. The utility will stop at nothing
to gain its ends.
