in the last war by the prime min
lister of the day was that he dis
trusted the commander in chief. but
had not the courage to dismiss him. y
said Duff Cooper. Mr.. Lloyd George
distrusted Field Marshal Haig.
He thought the latter was untitled
for his command, but he was afraid
of public opinion and did not dare
to place somebody else IN the po-
sition'
The speaker said Lloyd George did
everything in his power to under
mine his (Halg's) position both with
his fellow countrymen and with his
allies"
"That." declared Duff Cooper, sis
an objectionable attitude for states
man to adopt. That is why the name
politician continues to stink in the
nostrils of the Army"
Duff Cooper is writing an author
lied biography Of the late Field
Marshal Haig.
David Lloyd George, when his at
tention was called to Duff Cooper's
remarks, replied that the matter
would be fully dealt with in the next
volume of his own memoirs. The
former prime minister said he trusted
that until then the public would
withhold its judgment. He said he
would give the public the opportunity
of perusing relevant official docu-
ments.
Duff Cooper himself was captain
in the British Army, serving from
1914 to 1919. He won the Distin-
guished Service Order In 1919 he
married Lady Diana Manners.

Claims Graft Rare.

Speaking of charges of political in
terference and graft. in some cases of
which prosecution has been ordered
he said. the number of persons who
have been implicated in graft Is very
small, although it looms very large in
the publics mind
1T may be my own fault" he said.
Perhaps We should not throw these
things outdoors when somebody gets
fooling around with the publics
money.
Il believe that is the way to do
it. I may have made a mistake in
kicking lot of this stuff outdoors
But I do not like it when people,
volunteers, working for us. finagle
around on project out of which they
are making money through the back
door"
Saying he did not think the Fed
eral Government should be encour-
aged to stay in the relief picture
forever" Hopkins added:
We have done nothing and will do
nothing to encourage the set-up of
permanent relief machinery of this
kind in the United States. I think
it would be very serious mistake
to do it. This is not the way to
take care of the unemployed. But
in an emergency like this something
like this has to be done. and think
it has been done reasonably we'll.
I'VE have not permitted people to
starve. We have made some mis-
takes, but we have tried to give
relief reasonably and adequately and
promptly"
100000 Projects Handled.
He explained Mr.. Roosevelt told
him to put 100000 men to work
and he took 100000 from the relief
rolls and 100000 from self-sustain-
ing unemployed. At present. he said,
about 100000 projects were being
worked on by the c. w. A.
"All of the 100000 men are Gov
ernment employees" he said. they are
getting Federal compensation, they
are under Federal compensation law.
up to the present time, we have
had reports of 142 deaths and about
$4,000 accidents, which our actuaries
tell us is very low
Hopkins did express the belief that
not less than $500,000.000 of the
money asked should be spent for re-
lief for the unemployed, asserting that
ANY sum less than that is going to
endanger the emergency structure
which we have to maintain during
the coming year."
'It is impossible" he said, "for me
to tell you how many families are
going to be on relief next July, August
or September, or next october or No.
vember I do not know.
II think that we can, on minimum
basis. conclude we are going to have
an average Of close to 100000 fam
lilies on the relief rolls during the COM
ing year because no matter
what the pickup Is in industry-and
I think it has been substantial and
will be substantial-we have got large

BILL TO PENALIZE

PASSES IN SENATE

exempt refundings issues replacing old
ones and exclude countries in default
, only on private debts, such as certain
South American republics.
I Another change exempted American
Government corporations from finan-
cial dealings with defaulters. This
was incorporated SO as not to conflict
with the Treasury's fund for stabiliz-
ing the dollar abroad.
The bill was interpreted by its sup
porters as applying to about 18 ma
tlons, including those which have
made only small token" payments,
like Great Britain. as we'll as France
and others which are in complete
default
Sentiment in the House was said
by Democratic leaders to be strong
for the bill.
Treasury officials estimated the
theoretical decrease in the debts con-
tracted on the old gold dollar basis
to be about $5,O5S.OOO.O 900. unpaid
funded debts total s12352, ,O0O,O 900.
On the basis of the 5906 per cent
gold dollar, Englands debt would be
cut from $4,636 900 900 to So. .738. .0OO.-

S2,328 100000 and Italy's from $780,
100000 to Sl,402, 100000.
Agreement Reached.
Administration leaders and Senator
johnson reached a complete agree
nent yesterday on the bill. The DEM
ocratic leaders had worked out amend
lnents satisfactory to the State De-
partment and Johnson agreed to ac-
cept them.
Exempted from the bill as amended
would be refunding issues that renew
old obligations.
The bill also would not pre-
vent the American Government from
buying or selling exchange or securities
OF war debt defaulters in connection
with the currency stabilizations opera
tions under the dollar devaluation act.
The whole principle of the proposal,
Robinson said, is to put defaulting
nations on notice that so long as they
refuse to pay they should not expect
further credit in this country. An
other proposal to penalize such coun-
tries was made in the House by Repre-
sentative Fiesinger, Democrat of Ohio.
He introduced bill to double the
duties on Intoxicating liquors imported
from debt defaulters.

Such stories have increased the ag1-
tation of alarmiSts who fear the Gov
eminent is throwing away money be-
yond all reason. They suggest that
quite as much good would be accom-
plished if Messrs Ickes and Hopkins
we're permitted to toss away hundred
dollar bills from the dome of the
Capitol.
The fact seems to be that the Fed
eral spending program is accomplish
ing an enormous amount of needed
good. Purchasing power is being Gre
ated artifcially, but the spending is
not being as carefully planned and
limited as it should be.
You may expect to see Mr.. Roose-
velt start pairing down shortly.
N. r. A. Results Analyzed.
1t is now possible to estimate the
results of the N. R. A. from the Gov
ernment'S own figures.
The codes generally started going
into effect last September Statistics
(by Secretary Perkins, show employ
ment then was TAB per cent of nor
NAL. In October that figure slipped
December to 71.8.
So, under the codes employment
1Uds reduced from 743 to 71.8
in the first four months OF opera
ton.
The second idea of the codes was
to improve wages. Statistics (also by
Secretary Perkins) show the factory
pay rolls in September at 576; Oc-
tober. STA; November, 536; Deem
Der. 531.
So under the codes factory pay
rolls have dropped from 57.6 to 531
in four months of operation.
Termed Little Too Hard.
Those figures may be a little too
hard on the N. R. A. They are ad-
Justed for seasonal variations and
cannot be denied, but the fact also
should be pointed out that industrial
production has fallen off in the four
months cited.
Production was at level of "a per
cent of normal in September and was
off to IA in December You can read
lily see that the relative decline in
employment and wages was less than
the decline in production.
Therefore, the N. r. A. seems to
have safeguarded wages and employ
ment in some measure during declin-
ing production. In other words, 1t
cushioned the decline.

Roosevelt having signed late yester-
day an executive order giving the
National Labor Board express power
10 conduct an industrial election on
It's own terms in any plant where a
substantial number of the workers so
desire.
The order was designed to clear
away all doubt as to the boards au-
thority in disputes over company
unions. such as those it has had with
the Weirton Steel Co., E. G. Budd
Manufacturing Co. of Philadelphia,
the Philadelphia Rapid Transit Sys-
tem, the National Lock Co. of Rock

Germs which have challenged the
boards right 10 step into their plants.
Association Gives Aid.
Many Of these companies have been
assisted by the National Association
Of Manufacturers through legal ad-
vice or other aid, and this association
has come to be regarded by recovery
officials as the oo-ordinating force in
resisting the Labor Board and in the
increase Of company unions, which
Gen. Hugh 8. johnson said appeared
to be in part at least counter N.

from joining independent national
unions.

Workers in the Weirton Co. plants
that the company held fixed" elec-
tion. Four delegates were sent to
Washington following mass meeting,
which, in effect. said to them: Bring
back results or there will be a strike. !"
The President put no strings on
what the Labor Board may do:
It may determine lin such manner
as 1t sees fit" whether substantial

ton for representatives to deal with
the management, and it may define
In its own discretion what the sub

Il may conduct the election under

whatever rule it chooses to lay down.
It shall require that those voted for
by majority shall represent all Of
the employees.
It shall certify the names of the
elected representatives to the employ

them or recognize them "or is in any
other way refusing to comply with the
requirements" of the labor sections of
the industrial law, the board shall re-
port the case to the N. R. A. admins
traitor "for appropriate action"
Whether the industries advised by
the Manufacturers Association would
accept this order as final or challenge
on their basic contention that there is
no authority in the industrial law for
such activity. was the major question
left to be answered after the Presi-
dents action.
p It has been on this theory that the
. Weirton and Budd companies and
: others have refused to let the board
supervise elections in their plants. In
dications were that some at least were
surprised by the Presidents action as

she said. but in event Of a dispute
with authorities she'd sail right back
to Europe rather than "back-step."

Naturalized Canadian.
Alcorn, like Sankey, is a naturalized
Canadian and railroad man. He is
81 years old and tall and slender in
build. He has a number Of relatives
in Saskatchewan, Canada. In ques-
tioning Miss Matern, Federal agents
learned that one Walter Thomas had
purchased an automobile in Chicago
nearly a year ago. Records Of the
automobile agencies were checked and
it was found that Thomas had given
an address on Addison street. in
Chicago. A telephone call to this
residence brought response of wom-
an who said she was Mrs. Walter
Thomas. She said that Mr.. Thomas
was "out of town for two weeks or
10 days"
Agents Immediately raided the
house and found Alcorn masquerad-
ing under the name of Thomas AL
corn was making haste to pack up
and leave, having been alarmed over
the arrest of Sankey In the Alcorn
residence was found an automatic
pistol Alcorn told the agent, it was
said. that Sankey took all the Boett-
cher ransom money away from him.
A reward of $4,000 had been offered
for the arrest and conviction of AL
corn. However, it is a rule of the
Department of Justice agents never
to accept rewards.
Boettcher was kidnapped at Den
Yer on February II a year ago and
was held prisoner on Sankey's ranch
at Kimball. S. D. He was released on
payment of 100000 ransom.

Walmsley registered Wednesday in
hope of meeting Long.
The stage was set last night for a
