It Is equally remarkable that the
Democrats failed to rush to the
Presidents defense. Usually when po-
htical defendants know a charge is
groundless they make display Of
throwing it down.
White House Noncommittal.
The White House only yawned at
this one. Friends of the President
disdained to offer even any private
comment, except regarding Mr..
Mitchell's haste in jumping to con-
illusions.
No one demanded to be indicated.
No one even proposed an ofhcial ex-
PLANTATION.
The lack Of reaction among New
Dealers to the convention of Republic
can grass rooters" also was wholly In
violation of the unwritten customs of
politics. No one expected the White
House to take any notice of the Re
publican gardeners, but you would
think that some kind of publicity
the public mind.
The only New Deal official who said
anything about it at all was Post
master General Farley, who has never
been shy about talking politics at any
time.
The nlinseo0raph machine at
Democratic headquarters t0htrled
not flip. The publicity man toho.
turned it against Herbert HooUer
so deDnStdtingEy a fefD years ago
(ChdrIes Michelson) sat beside it
in silence. He told friends he could
not see Uery many possibilities in
that situation TOR his line of NeD
Deal erdedUoT.
If these few inner observations are
not enough to give you hint Of the
current generalship being followed by
the administration, let 1t be recorded:
/. The New Deal high command is
stalking everything on business re-
covery and is not worrying about in
cidentals.
2. The Roosevelt strategists are con-
WINGED he cannot lose in SO if bust
ness continues to improve; and he
cannot win If it does not.
3. No one will remember next year
that there ever was a Supreme Court
decision on N. r. A. II industrial pro-
duction passes 100.
4. They all believe that their pur-
poses will be best served, in any event,
by ignoring attacks, maintaining a

BROAD BAN limited
ON HOLDING FIRMS
President Indicates He Will
Extend Attack to Include
All industries.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Confronted by stiff opposition, Pres
ident Roosevelt indicates he will
broaden his attack on public utility
holding companies and make It a
drive against such companies In all
industries.
In his special message to Congress
proposing inheritance taxes and in
creased income levies in the higher
brackets, he said:
Ultimately, we should seek through
taxation the simplihcation of our cor
porate structure through the elimins-
ton Of unnecessary holding companies
in all lines of business"
Dissolution Clause DeIeted.
This sweeping proposal was made
only a, few hours after a House sub
committee-in direct disregard of his
wishes-had removed from the utili-
ties holding company bill now before
it provisions requiring absolute disso-
luton of all unnecessary" holding
companies by 1912.
In its place, the subcommittee IN
serted language which would leave it
TO the securities commission to re-
Cuire, if it Is in the public interest,
holding company to conflne its opera
tons to one integrated public utility
system. Otherwise the commission
may limit the operations TO such
number of integrated public utility
systems as 1t finds may be included
in such holding company system con-
astent with the public interest"
Rayburn Talks to President.
Soon after this action, Chairman
Rayburn of the full Interstate Com
merce Committee conferred with the
President. Indications were that de-
spite Mr.. RooSevelt's insistence on the
original provision, the full committee
would approve the subcommittee
substitute. Many legislators thought
the substitute probably would be sup
ported by the House when it comes
to a vote there. The President was
victorious in the Senate on this issue
by only one vote.
Senator Wheeler, Democrat, Of
panies, told newspaper men after the
Presidents message that he thought
it would give new courage to House
supporters Of the utilities measure.
When the latter bill passed the Senate,
Wheeler predicted the time would
come when all holding companies
would be eliminated.

THERE must have been some good

i more of an immediate sensa-
tion-and there were.
Ordinarily the retirement Of an
official of Ewing Mitchell's standing
as Assistant Commerce Secretary and
his charges involving the friendship
of the President with Messrs. Vincent
Aston and Kermit Roosevelt would
be enough to erect headlines three
inches high. You would expect Re-
publican Congressman to leap at the
insinuation that the New Dealers paid
the Astor- Roosevelt ship line a need
less subsidy, especially because Presi-
dent Roosevelt has often been criticized
for riding on the Astor yacht.

Also the word was passed around
that Mr.. Mitchell was an excitable
person and that it would be ad-
visable to proceed cautiously.

Laura Ingalls, Out
For N. Y. Miami
Speed Record

MIAMI. Fla, Dec. 4.-(UP).-
Planning an attempt to beat the
New York Miami speed record now
held by Eastern Airlines, Laura
Ruth Ingalls, landed here at 4:25
yesterday afternoon in the black,
low-wing Lockheed-Ori plane Ill
which she set the new west-tO-east
transcontinental record of 10 y
hours.
Although arrangements are ten
tative, Miss Ingalls, hopes to make
the nonstop fight from New York
within the next two weeks. She
insists that weather must be IA
vorable. however, when she tries
to better the six hour and 40 min
ute speed of the commercial or
ganizatiOn. :,
Spectacular flights can do much
for the progress of aviation" she
said. "Like flaming rockets, they
attract widespread attention, and
people will follow where they lead.
But important flights must be
carefully planned, like those OF
Amelia Earhart.
81 can't help feeling that Jean
Batten's hop across the South At
lantic was rash. Without radio,
boats or anything to save her, t
IS extremely lucky that she did
not come down in mid-ocean. She
is young, eager to succeed-and
God was with her. That sort of
thing is good once, maybe twice,
but it can't last forever.
CRASHES are disastrous to avla-
ton as a whole. Careful planning
and good weather are essential to
flights that will have permanent
value"
Trim and unwearied, the avia-
trix stood by her ship in brown
corduroy trousers and a leather
jacket to direct check work in
preparation for return to New
York today or Thursday.
