was no doubt in his mind as to the
intention of Congress regarding the
disputed transportation allowances.
He asserted past claims would be paid
and that he would ask Congress to
make clear its authorization of future
payments. Attorney General Cum
mings indicated he would not bring
suits on behalf of McCarl to recover
funds paid out for such purposes.
Il have faith in McCarl," Norris
said. He has been in controversies
before, but I don't recall any instance
where he was in controversy with the
President and the entire cabinet.
Usually it has been with independent
cabinet officers"
Seen Checker" of Congress.
He described McCarl as an agent
OF Congress whose function it is ito
check" on the expenditures of the
executive branches of the Govern
ment.
The controllers job as defined by
the Nebraskan, Is to study the law
and determine whether Government
workers have the right to incur ex-
penses reported.
why, he passes on the expenses
of the President and the Attorney
General himself" Norris declared.
As Norris spoke up for McCarl, the
Capitol waited for an answer from
Secretary Swanson to House Naval
Subcommittee which yesterday asked
him to appear before it Monday and
explain his defiance of the account
ing officer.
McCarl, who is now in Florida on
q vacation, has succeeded on several
occasions in blocking expenditures
proposed by New Deal agencies.
Several months ago he prevented the
spending of relief funds for low
cost housing project in the District of
Columbia. More recently, he ruled
against certain promotions sought by
the War Department in the c. c. C..
Attorney General Cummings decided
these promotions could be made any
way.
Order Still ineffective.
Navy officers said that McCarl, un-
less overruled by Congress, could still
refuse to approve accounts containing
the controverted expense payments.
Swanson's order, issued in January.
has not yet been made effective. Pre-
vious payments, after being vetoed by
McCarl, we're obtained by the retired
officers in the Court of Claims.
The issue was brought into the open
early this week when McCarl made
public a letter protesting SwanSon's
order and warning him that officers
making the payments would be held
strictly accountable"
McCarl contended that the opinion
Of Cummings upholding the payments
was purely advisory" and brushed
aside the favorable opinions by the
Court of Claims with the assertion
that they disregarded contrary
opinion by the Supreme Court.
Swanson had summarized his posi-
ton with the remark that the issue
was whether "the courts or McCarl'
were supreme.
Meanwhile, Senator Vandenberg,
Republican of Michigan, has launched
a movement to amend the General
Accounting law to make possible the
reappointment of Controller General
McCarl when his 15-year term expires
next year. AS it stands, the law
makes a Controller General ineligible
for reappointment.
Vandenberg said that in these days
Of lump sum appropriations" the i'm
portance Of the Controller General
ship has been magnified a thousand
times. He said McCarl has shown a
perfect conception of the duties of the
office.

Cerrutti protested against the

plated by the League for COM
mencing a coal, oil. iron and
steel embargo against Italy.
1t was believed a new Italian
attempt would be made to in
duce Laval to intervene in the
Leagues plans in an effort to
obtain greater leniency.
France was obliged to join in
League sanctions for the sake OF
her own future security, Laval in
formed Mussolini.
The French note declared that
once the League Council found
Italy had gone to war against
Ethiopia in violation of the League
covenant, France was forced to
join in sanctions.

such is the imperious reason
which, despite Franco-Italian re-

therefrom. and despite French

of sanctions"
The note said no hostility was
meant against Italy.

UTILITIES DEFY
SEC THREAT
International News Service


Resorting to a mixture Of ca
jolings and threats, the Govern
ment today was seeking to induce
utility holding companies to reg
lister with the SEC before the dead
line on December /.
Perturbed by the threat of the
holding companies to defy the
registration rule, the Government
sought to bring pressure to bear
through a statement by the SEC.
This statement assured the
holding companies that by regis
tering they would not waive ANY
constitutional or legal rights"
At the same time, it warned
that ''if there is a general failure
to register under the act, the
commission will proceed promptly
to bring civil suits against one
or more important companies that
fail to register, and to seek the
decisions from the Supreme Court
sustaining its validity"
However, with little more than
q week remaining before the
deadline, only one small company
has registered, and the preponder-
ance Of the industry appeared in
no hurry to follow suit.

This was the emphatic opinion
today of John H. CurtiSS, who as
sheriff of Hunterdon county, had
Bruno Richard Hauptrnann in his
custody at Flemington throughout
his trial last winter for the muir
der of Baby Lindbergh.
when he failed to break down
during that first day of cross
examination at the trial, I knew
he never would break down, {"
CurtisS said.
The ex-sheriff said one of the
things which .myStified him most
about the whole case, was how
Hauptmann fooled his wife about
his sudden wealth after the Lind
bergh ransom was paid in 1882.
II can't get that through my
head" Curtiss said. Women are
usually curious any way"
CurtiSS is out of a job at pres
ent. Hunterdon county voters
never got over their resentment at
being shut out of the small trial

rites Were allowed in and they
gave Curtiss the foot at the cleo

It was believed this early date

League officials have noted with
satisfaction the efforts of the
United States administration to
prevent by moral and other pres
sure the shipment Of essential war
materials to italy frNm the United
States en grounds such exports
were contrary to the intent of the
American neutrality Law.
Oil was not included in the
League emhargoes already levied
against Italy because it is con-
trolled by nonLeague members
principally the United States and
Germany. and League officials
felt oil sanctions against Italy
could not be effective without
the cooperation of these nations.
