And SO it goes-ti1is business of be-

adage of "eayesdroppers never hearing

some cases, but in others many rich
compliments fall into the inconSpicu-

sports OF hostesses after such a tour is
to gather for cup of tea or cocktail at

the receipts for charity. and exchange
anecdotes about the visitors and their
remarks during the tour.

HULL HITS FOREIGN
SHIPPING CONTROL
Fights Federal Regulation
of Rates of Ships Using
American Ports.
~ the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
Foreseeing possible treaty fractures,
Secretary Hull yesterday voiced ser
ious objections" TO proposed Federal
regulation of rates, fares and charges
Of foreign ships using American ports.
His stand, backed bv resolution of
the Interdepartmental Committee on
Commercial Policy declaring such
regulation would prove Injurious TO
American foreign trade" conceded
with a Senate attack OIL the admin
isration's reciprocal tariff policy.
Senator Vandenberg, Republican. of
Michigan introduced resolution pro-
posing that hereafter no foreign tariff
agreements be entered into" and that
any heretofore entered into should
he terminated at the earliest possible
date" He commended that under the
n. r. A. decision Congress had exceed
ed its authority in delegating the
trea tv- making power 10 the President.
Five Agreements Concluded.
The State Department has con-
cluded trade agreements with Cuba,
Brazil, Belgium, Haiti and Sweden.
Others are under negotiations.
BulFs opposition to foreign ship
rate regulation was directed specifically
against sections of The pending ship
subsidy and Eastman water-carrier
regulation bills. He wrote Senate and
House committee chairmen, saying in
his letter to Senator Wheeler of the
Interstate Commerce Committee:
II do mol feel an attempt by This
Government 10 prescribe minimum
rates which may be charged by foreign
vessels on the cargOeS which they
carry between American and foreign
ports would be in harmony with that
basic principle in our treaty structure
under which we have granted TO
foreign shipping the right Of free
access 10 our ports and in return have
obtained for our ships the right of
free access 10 foreign ports.
Certainly such regulation would
be in conflict with the generally &C
Code Rejected.
AS YOU are doubtless aware Ihe
proposed code of fair competition for
the shipping industry failed % re-
ceive the Presidents approval and
one of the principal objections raised
against it related 10 the provisions for
regulation of rates in foreign COM
nerce -
In my opinion. a most serious oo
lection TO any unilateral attempt by
this Government to fix rates in foreign
commerce lies in The fact that this
procedure would add one more form
of restriction TO the entangled and
conflicting mass of nationalistic re
strictions from which our foreign
trade is suffering today
The impracticability of sncn uni
lateral regulation can readily be ap-
preciated if one considers the impasse
that would result if another govern
meut should adopt the same practice.
hut should prescribe rates covering its
trade with lis different from those
our authorities prescribed for the very
ss me trade"

Saturday OF this week, the Alex

for rivalry from Chevy Chase, Mary

will be open.
With all this gracious hospitality TO
help worthy causes, there is back
ground of real sacrifice that rarely
occurs 10 the casual pilgrim on these
tours. Also. The "hOstesses' at the
houses open find need for much quick
thinking, Ingenuity and sense of
humor.
Cos,s Enter Plans
In Ihe first place, as one hoSI ess
remarke it costs each one who opens
her home in this way about $50 to
nave necessary painting, papering,
window cleaning, careful cleaning of
delicate lace curtains and draperies
done, in addition TO all the. actual
work of seeing that the house is SET
in order and personal things in the
part to be opened safely tucked away.
Then, after the tour, almost as much
money must be spent 10 clear up and
straighten things out again
OF course, all this helps The men
needing employment in carpentry,
painting and window washing trades.
Also it is the underlying reason why,
in msny cases, it is the compare tive

who opens mis- house to rne tour. The
newcomer usually has more finances
available TO make these necessary
preparations. Frequently an interior
decorator has done the worst of the
lob for him before he has moved in.
Real Fun Begius.
Once the tour is on the real fun
begins for the hostess. One Of the
most amusing incidents in such g
tour happened in Georgetown year
ago. Representative Isabella Green
