RADIO QUIZ CHARGE
DENIED BY PRIEST
Ry the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
Father John B. Harney of New York,
superior general of the Paulist Fathers,
denied today before the Communica-
tionS Commission that he had asked to
see the official record of radio hearings
before a House committee last Spring.
His denial was made in connection
with statements Thursday before the
commission by Joseph F. Rutherford.
president of the Peoples Pulpit Asso-
citation of New York, that agents Of
the Catholic Hierarchy" had mutt
lated the record.
Il deny in toto that I ever ap-
preached E. G. Layton (clerk of the

in all essentials in Is months.
In connection with actual opera
tionS, ICkeS outlined a method by which
he claimed the District could save
probably between $4,000 and $1,000
in engineering fees. While not object
ing to the fees proposed to be paid to
Messrs. Metcalf and Eddy, consulting
engineers of Boston, he suggested that
the Commissioners, after work has
actually started, engage any needed
additional engineering services on a
per diem basis.
Time is OF the essence" in carrying
out the contracts for work on the
plant, Ickes stressed, and for this rea-
son he has made the contract binding
on that the plans and specifications
for all units other than the activated
Sludge equipment. shall be completed
on or before March l, 1885.
1T is time that employment in the
District should be increased" he
added.
1T is time that a metropolitan re-
gioE like the District should be pro-
vided with modern facilities for the
adequate treatment of sewage.
When it was first suggested that
the District might be empowered by
Congress to borrow from the Public
Works Administration to finance the
construction of sewage disposal
plant. the suggestion sounded like a
whistle in a graveyard.
Nevertheless, 1 had then no hesi-
tation in aiding the proponents of this
plan of financing enabling the
District to obtain loans and grants
from the Public Works Administration
Nor have 1 now any hesitation in ex-
ecuting the proposed agreement be-
tween the United States of America
and the District of Columbia, herewith
lnclosed, prior to the execution of the
agreement by the Commissioners con-
trary to my otherwise invariable prac-
tice of requiring an applicant for a
loan and grant to execute a proposed
agreement first"
Ickes invited the Commissioners to
further conference If there is any,
thing in the contract or his letter
which is not clear.
Speed is of the utmost import
ance," he repeated. I'VE must achieve
without further ado our paramount
purpose of putting as many men to
work on the sewage disposal plant as
quickly as possible and, at the same
time, construct in an orderly and ef-
f1cient manner useful public work. Z"

ENGLISH
ACCORD PREDICTED
Close Collaboration on Many
Important Naval Issues
Seen Likely Development.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, October s.-Close COLI
laboration between Great Britain and
Japan on many important naval issues
was predicted today as a likely
development of international naval
negotiations.
The popular view Of Japan against
the world" on naval matters, an off,
cial said, is likely to be dissipated after
the important Anglo-Jspanese con-
verSationS are held here in mid
October and Japan clears the air by
renouncing the Washington treaty on
December 81.
First Possible Date.
That is the first possible date under
terms of the treaty that Japan can
serve a two-year notice Of abrogation
officially. She has unoficially advised
other signatory poWers-Great Britain,
United States, France and Italy-of
her intention.
International conversations thus far
have shown that Japan stands alone
in her insistence on the eventual
scrapping of both the London and
Washington treaties.
The Washington treaty, which would
run Indefinitely until one of the sig
natories served notice of abrogation,
laid down the limits for battleshipS and
airplane carriers and created the
5-5-3 ratio, which the japanese in
sist must be abandoned. The London
treaty, which automatically terminates
December 81, 1886, limited the tonnage
of smaller ships.
Britain and the United States favor
continuation of the 5-5-3 ratio, which
leaves Japan on the short end. but it is
beyond these ISSUES now uppermost in
the public mind that Anglo-Japanese
collaboration is foreseen.
If the nations get to the point OF
drafting a new treaty or treaties, as
Japan insists. the possibility is seen
that she will give strong support 70
Britain in urging smaller size capital
ships and smaller guns.
Strikes at U. s. Policy.
This will strike squarely et the
traditional policy Of the United
States, which has stressed large ships
and large guns as peculiarly needed
for defense of her extensive coast
lines. Britain. needing fast, light
cruisers for the system Of defense
she has built up for her far-fung
empire. has long maintained big ships
and guns were an economic burden
that should be done away with.
Japan likewise has stressed smaller
ships. particularly submarines, in her
defense system.
The fact that British relations with
Japan is all political matters have
been much smoother than those be-
tween the United States and Japan
also is expected to make it easier for
them to reach common ground.
American delegates are expected to
confer separately with the British and
the japanese.

Title Mad Detroiters Battle for Stand

By the Associated Press.
DETROIT, october 7.-Breathing,
respectively, defiance and confidence,
the st. Louis Cardinals and Detroit
Tigers arrived this morning in two
special trains for the game, or games,
that will decide the world base ball
championship.
"The series isn't over yet" growled
Manager frankie Frisch of the Car
dinals, as he led his players, behind
police detail, through a silent
crowd, estimated as high as $4,000,
that packed the Union Station and
the streets around it.
A few minutes later the Tigers ar
rived and a thunderous roar went up
from the fans, who had waited an
hour or more.
Paul Dean, brother of big Dizzy,
was named by Frisch today to pitch
for the Cardinals against Lynwood
(Schoolboy) Rowe of the Tigers in
the crucial sixth game of the world
series.
The choice of young Dean, who won
the third game In st. Louis, to /,
in preference to Bill Hallahan, came

Removal from the Post Office De-
partment G. -?--'cr to fix airmail pay
ments was advocated today BY Albert
Frank, president Of National Parks
Airways
Frank told the Presidents Aviation
Commission today that either it or
another independent agency should
have power to regulate all civil avia-
ton. including the fixing of such pay
ments.
Subsidies Held Needed.
Asserting subsidies were necessary
because the operators had to be ready
to carry any amount of mail the
post Office required, Frank said a
combination space and pound mile
rate payment should be kept up.
w. A. Patterson, president Of United
AirlineS, Inc, told the commission his
line frequently had to put off passen-
gers in order to carry mail.
Unless specific legislation, founded
on fairness to the Government. the
public and the industry, is passed and
becomes law within the first go days
after the next Congress convenes, -
Patterson said. the large air transport
companies will have reduced their en-
tire cash resources to a point where
they will be unable to carry on beyond
June Is without extensive refnancing.
Terrific Losses Seen.
Additional cash acquired from such
a refnancing program would not
represent any new physical value. but
would represent only the terrific losses
which this industry has sustained dur
ing the past year"
He also advocated a permanent reg
ulatory commission.
Patterson attacked particularly the
provisions Of the BIack-McKellar air
mail law barring transcontinental op-
orators from coast routes after
March /.
Il feel certain" he said. that the
commission will recommend against
the virtual confscation, and certainly
the depreciation, of the $4,000 900
worth of assets of United Airlines on
the Pacific Coast"
Patterson said the only regulations
against monopoly should bar one COM
pany from having parallel routes.

AGREES TO RULE
UPON NEW DEAL

Evening star., 1934-10-08

What seems 10 nave ndppeAeo Is
this:
The Tugwellian wing of the brain
trust here has been saying all along
that the fears of business men were
not sincere; that business was just
bleating because the New Deal was
interfering with its greedy purposes;
that the only business men who were
really trying to make Mr.. Roosevelt
end all uncertainty were the Specu-
lators in the stock market.
The more practical brain trusters,
particularly Moley, could see there
lpdS more in the business attitude
than that. They thought it might
be nerelu a case of nliSunderStdnd-
ina and that the only sensible
thing to do, at any rate, tCdS to
tru TO frd out tUhdt tGdS tUrong.
Perhaps, then, something could De
done about it.
No one here believes the admins
tration has any idea of sacrificing any
of its policies The only purpose seems
to be for business and Government to
work together, so each can have a
better knowledge of the others prob
lens and ideas.
1t is quite true, as stated by the
White House and Mr.. Moley, that he
is acting on his own initiative, But 1t
also is true that anything Of i'm
portance heard by Mr.. Moley during
these dinners also will unqueStionably
be heard later by the President.
Progressive Trouble.
The administration is having con-
siderable trouble away down deep with
the progressive Republicans.
These progressive boys were. salts
fed with the careful, helpful attitude
taken by Mr.. Roosevelt regarding their
present campaigns for reelection to
the House, Senate and to gubernatorial
chairs. But the way Chairman Farley
has been running around, promoting
the candidates. of their Democratic
opponents, has irked them con-
siderably.
There are some insiders here who
feel that the irlsistence Of President
Glenn Frank University of Wiscon-
SIM on the Withdrawal of Chairman
Garrison of the New Deal Labor Board
Garrison is dean of the Disconsin
Law School-may have had some con-
nection with the resentment of some
La Toilette supporters against Mr.
Farley's Democratic partisanship
They may be wrong, but they cannot
help feeling that there is something
more behind Garrison's withdrawal
than the reasons publicly offered.
