WALLACE SEES

Both Communist and Fascist
Movements Spreading, He
Says in Address

NEW YORK, March 16 GNS).
Industry, restricting production to
maintain prices; labor, by de-
manding too short hours for too
high pay; and some branches of
agriculture, by seeking too great
restrictions on production and
too heavy imposts on imports, are
dividing forces threatening the
economic balance of the country,
Secretary Of Agriculture Henry A.
Wallace declared here today.
Speaking at the annual session
Of the Foreign Policy Association,
he warned all three groups against
abuse Of Governmental powers,
and at the same time sounded q
warning against "a growing body
Of opinion in the United States
ardently in favor Of" either
FaSciSm or Communism.
Industry ASSaiIed
Criticizing industry severely,
the Secretary defended the agri-
cultural program under his ad-
ministration. He said:
Industry, when its 1894 pro-
duction was 50 per cent below
1929 levels while its prices were
only Is per cent below, was re-
stricting production in order to
maintain prices. Insofar as it
used its governmental powers
to do this, it abused these
powers and ignored its Obliga-
tiOnS to the nation.
"The effect Of maintaining
prices at that level is to pre-
vent other groups, whose prices
are lower, from exchanging
their products {or industrial
products. The effect on en-
plOyment is obvious.
FARM TROUBLE CITED
"'Despite = great drought,
agricultural production in 1884
was within Is per cent Of 1929,
while its prices were AZ. per cent
short Of 4Se 1929 level-juSt
the reverse Of induStry'S.
Even today, despite the
drought, retail food prices are
about 20 per cent below 1929.
"The industrial drive, Of
course, is for profits, but to
curb the power of other groups
to buy seems a curious way Of
going about it."

tered a profane word. Despite his
MANY years of legal experience,
however, he failed to brush aside
the accusation that he was in
volved in "a deal" to promote In.
spector Headley to the place held
by Inspector Bean.
After long and careful QueS-
tioning by the committees coun-
sci, DR.. John r. Fitzpatrick, he
admitted making "a gentlemanS
agreement" with Major Brown
that Inspector Headley would be
promoted as soon IS q vacancy
occurred.
Correspondence between Mr..
Blanton and Major Brown proved
Mr.. Blanton'S downfall. Four let
ters which passed between the
two last year were read into the
record, showing to the SatiSfac-
ton of the committee members
that Inspector Bean was slated
for removal and that Inspector
Headley would take his place.
WriggIes Under Questions
Wriggling under the verbal
barrage, Mr.. Blanton, time after
time, refused to answer questions
pointblank, but insisted instead
in launching into irrelevant
eulogies of himself, Inspector
Headley and Major Brown. He
became incensed at the commit
tee in general, and In particular
at DR.. Fitzpatrick, when the lat
ter, aroused to a fighting pitch,
drove question after question in
the hope of trapping Mr.. Blan-
ton into a definite answer.
The upshot Of the whole of Mr..
Blanton's testimony was simply
an indirect admission that he and
Major Brown had made "a deal"
to promote Inspector Headley. If
and when they could induce In
spector Bean to retire. Mr.. Blan-
ton constantly referred to Janu-
ary /, 1885, as the date Of In
spector Beans retirement and
the committee received no salts
faction in their attempt to ascer.
tain who had set this date.
Frequent Flare-up
The Texan asserted the date
had been set by Inspector Beans
friends. He admitted, however,
Inspector Bean himself said moth
ing about a retirement date, and
further that the inspector! was
not in on "the deal" to have
himself Supplanted by Inspector
Headley.
The drama-packed session was
featured by chickering's between
committee members and frequent
flare-ups of the witness and the
committees counsel. Representa-
tie Theodore B. Werner (D0 Of
South Dakota, told his coa-
leagues Mr.. Blanton should not

Income Tax Returns
Up 20 Per Cent in N. Y.

NEW YORK, March 16 INSD.
Bearing evidence of the recent
Treasury drive against delinquents,
a rise of 20 per cent in income
tax returns over last year was
reported here today.
1t was pointed out, however,
that this did not necessarily indi-
cate substantial increase in
revenue, since corporations we're
not permitted to file consolidated
returns. AS against this, more
individual returns were believed
to have been filed because of re-
strictions on stock losses.

n you like to speculate but feel
that the cee-gees are poison to you at
Jamaica, consider the Arabs. They
get q lot Of fun out Of placing two
scorpions In saucer and then betting
on the winner Of the Inevitable fight.
Or, II you like longer run for your

Calcutta. Bookmakers there have given
odds as high as 600 to on the amount
of rain that might fall on any certain
day weeks in advance.
In case you have been wondering
what was the closest championship
fight on record, you might do we'll to
recall the time whom Freddie Welsh
and Willie Richie battled for the light
weight crown. Eugene corrl, the IA
nous referee, used mathematical sys-
tenn Of scoring points. At the finish
he decided that Welsh had won by half
a point.
It was lightweights, by the way, who
figured in the only championship bout
that ever ended In a double knockout.
AID Wolgast, the champion, and Joe
Rivers, the Mexican contender, were
both on the canvas at the end of the
thirteenth round. Since Rivers had gone
done first, by scant seconds, the referee
lifted the champion to his feet and
held him there while counting out the
Mexican.
Since mention of golf always brings
up lot of statistics, may as well add
some more. There are more than $50

made from such widely separated ma
terlals as papler mache, wood, rubber,
