ACTION
TAKEN TODAY
BY CONGRESS
Measure Sent To White House
With Presidents Signature
Confidently Expected
VOICES WAR OPPOSITION
Leaders In Congress Declare
Nation Is Not Going To Tangle
In Any European Outbreak

WASHINGTON, Aug. "a. UP)--
The cry I'VE want no war" echoed
through the senate chamber today
when congress completed action and
sent to the White House a neutral
ity bill designed to guard America
against mounting threats of for
eign conflict.
| Joseph T. Robinson, majority
leader, standing near the front Of
the chambers as senators paused In
the rush toward adjournment, de-
clared this nation desires no repe-
tition of the war of two decades
ago.
I'VE want no warl" he exclaimed.
1--WE want no wealth gained from
war.
eve want peace and we do not
propose to go into war to settle
European controversies.
Robinsons vigorous declaration
came after the senate, by the over
whelming vote of n, to 2, had
passed the neutrality legislation
carrying mandatory embargo pro-
visions against shipping war ma
terials to belligerents until March
l. The measure now goes to the
President, the house having already
acted.
After the action, the senate took
up the amendment of Sen. Robert
| M. La Toilette (P) Wisconsin, de-
claring that no member of the sem
ate had been authorized to speak for
that body abroad.
Robinson both rebuked and de-
Tended Sen. James P. Pope (Dem)
Idaho, who was quoted in London
as discussing the danger OF the
United States being drawn into
foreign conflict.
La Toilette, explaining his resolu-
ton, said it was not introduced to
'embarrass" Senator Pope or en-
tirely limited to him. He said other
senators might soon be travelling
in foreign lands and that he want
ed it understood they would not be
represen&ing the senate or any Of
its committees.

of difficulty. sincerely believe that
only those irrigation districts which
have power resources to combine
with water resources can be assured
of ultimate stability.
Develop Power Now
One last point before 1 conclude
Mr. West admits that there can be
developed on the All-American
canal, four or five times as much
power as is now being used in this
area. In my opinion, this is one of
the more important reasons for the
district both developing and dis
tributing the power, If we had only
sufficient power possibilities on the
All-American canal to meet our de-
mands for the present, or for say
not more than five or ten years,
then it might be argued that we
should sell this power to a company
which had outside connections, since
within such a short time we would
have to depend upon other sources
for our supply. But this is not the
case; as Mr.. West admits, we will
have available sufficient power to
meet all Of our demands for an
indefinite period, so why not make
ourselves economically independent
by developing and distributing the
power ourselves rather than let it
go to waste for 10 years, and then
tie in with power company and be
subject to its terms and dictates.
Imperial Valley is a desert COM
munity, more or less isolated from
other parts of Southern California,
with no natural power, other than
that on the All-American canal,
closer than many hundreds of
miles. There IS no community in
The country where an adequate sup
ply of low-cost electricity is more
important, or will do more for the
health and happiness, as well as
the prosperity of the people, than
it will here in our valley. The ALI
American canal, in addition to
solving the most serious problems
with which we have had to contend
in the past, also makes possible, as
a by-product, our power require
ments. We are on the threshold of
substantial development, both in
the present irrigated area, as well
as in the adjoining areas. Why not
combine water and power under the
fullest possible use in assisting I'M
perial Valley TO obtain the pros
perity which is certain to be ours,
provided we do not throw away the
opportunities afforded us,

COURT LEAVES
OLD CHAMBERS
United Press staff Correspondent

United Press staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON. June 3. Wa -
On the afternoon of June 3. nine
tired justices will push their leather
padded chairs back from their long
mahogany bench. file slowly out of
their chamber and leave the musty
room to its ancient memories.
The dimly lit semi-eircular room
then will become a shrine to the
historic scenes it has witnessed, in
habited only by nine white marble
busts OF former chief justices and
a silently screeching gilt spread
eagle.
Room To Be Shrine
The decision not to make any
living use of the room, once the
senate chamber where pre-Civil
war debates ragged, was made by
the senate last session. II was de-
cided to make the room a shrine
for the edification of visiting tour
lists
AIt Sodit VIII bthE up Abo AEAA-
berations next fall in a magnifi-
cent, $10,000000 white marble tenn
pie across the Capitol Plaza, but
few anticipate that future scenes
there will transcend those enacted
in the inconvenient old chamber.
1t was just about the time of the
outbreak of the Civil war that the
court, formerly housed in small
and remote room in the basement
of the capitol, moved into the
chamber.
Civil War Crisis
The court itself by the famous
Dred Scott decision had played its
part in precipitating the crisis.
| Five of it's members at that time
had been Democrats. When it re-
turned to its bench two had died
and one, a Secessionist had re-
signed. President Lincoln material
ly altered the completion of the
court by appointing northerners to
their places.
| An historian recalls that at that
first meeting the noise of the war
had not found its way into the
chamber. But the peace was not
| long lived. Soon the court found
itself concerned with important
questions.
Throughout the intervening Pc
riod, with the nation changing
from a status of an agricultural
country to that of an industrial
one it has had only recesses OF
peace.
| Kept Steadily. At Work
Obscure in the popular mind, the
court has gone steadily on, hand
ing down decisions that affected
the intimate personal lives of every
citizen.
The obscurity with which this
work has been carried on is evil
denced by the guard at the court
door. Frequently tourists issue
from the chamber to ask him what
/ it is they have just seen.
1 The first Civil war case the court
decided after moving into its quar-
ters involved the legality of Presi-
! dent Lincoln's blockade of southern
ports. Later it was to decide cases
involving the taking of prize ships,
forfeiting slave runners and tie
| seizure of southern cotton.
!! Afterward it decided in the little
chamber the legal tender cases, up
holding congress right to issue pa
per money, and defined in series
| of decisions the rights of former
slaves and present citizens under
the newly adopted 18th, 18th and
l4th amendments.
In its new building it will have
cases involving the new deal and
the rights of citizens under it.
