BAR Halls FIGHT
FOR CONSTITUTION
Hogan Says Renewed In
terest in Government Form
Marks Session.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LOS ANGELES, July 20.-Renewed
interest in defense Of the American
constitutional form of government and
steps taken for coordination of the
bar were listed today by leading attor-
neys as the significant achievements
of the fifty-eighth annual convention
of the American Bar Association.
1.-THE vital interest shown in adher-
ence tc American constitutional form
of government and the obvious senti-
ment that that form of government
Is not considered outmoded are easily
the most significant developments"
said Frank ]. Hogan Of Washington,
d. C.
Kogan's comment followed action by
which the association went on record
as pledging itself to oppose alterations
In the essential lines of the American
Constitution by the process OF cor
ruption of its text"
Other attorneys said they consid-
cred the movement for better organi-
cation and coordination of the bar
the highlight of the convention.
william L. Ransom, New York City,
was elected president of the aSSocia-
ton by a margin Of 81 votes over
James M. Beck of Washington, D. c.,
former Representative from Pennsyl-
vania and former Solicitor General Of
the United States.
The contest involving the presidency
was the first in the history of the or
ganization.
John H. Voorhees, of Sioux Falls, S.
OAK, was reelected treasurer, and Will
liam P. MacCracken of Washington,
D. c., was named secretary again. Ten
district vice presidents and three new
members Of the Executive Committee
also we're elected.
The only unfinished business on
hand was the selection of 1886 con-
vention city.
A supplementary statement and
resolution condemning the proposal in
the A. A. A. bill to remove from juris-
diction of the courts. suits involving
the assessment of taxes under regula-
tions Of the act, was adopted by the
association at its final session.
The committee on Federal taxation,
which presented the report, was au-
thorized to oppose the amendment
pending in Congress.

Looking back on a quarter century

mighty fine fellows.
The occasion of the backward look
was Byrns' sixty-sixth birthday an

attacking q mass of letters and docu-
ments on his desk.
No regrets lurked in the mind Of
the long, gaunt legislator over that

lucrative law practice in Tennessee
to run for Congress.

through war, through panic, through
recovery; through almost every con-
ceivable condition. wouldn't trade
my experience for anything else I

In all the years I've been here,
the members of the House, with a few
exceptions, have been men of high
ability. Maybe some think a little
of politics; maybe there's a bit of
demogogy occasionally, but by and
large the members are a high type of
man.

Repeal No Solution So Long
as Gangs Exist, House
Committee Finds.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The House Ways and Means Com
mittee says that so long as the liquor
industry is left open to "highly-fin-
anced gangs of criminals and racket
eers," legal liquor cannot be pro-
tected.
Hurting charges that bootleggers
and racketeers still enjoy a foothold
In the national life, the committee in
formal report urged the House to
take speedy action on its bill Great
ing a new Federal Alcohol Control
Board.
"Under existing Federal law" the
report said, there is no means OF
keeping the criminal from entering
the legalized liquor field"
AS reported out, the bill sets up a
Federal Alcohol Control Administra-
ton" In the Treasury Department.
Repeal No Betterment.
The committee asserted that prior
10 prohibition the States alone could
not prevent unlawful and deceptive
practices" In the liquor business nor
protect their own citizens from" the
extant evils" The report added:
"The situation holds true today.
During prohibition, unscrupu-
lous persons entered into the liquor
business with consequences known
to all.
"The Federal Government Except
to limited extent in the case OF dis
.tilleries) is powerless to prevent the
most notorious criminal from entering
into the business.
"The public cannot be protected
from unscrupulous advertising, the
consumer cannot be protected from
deceptive labelling practices; in short
the legalized liquor trafflc cannot be
effectively regulated II the door is left
open for highly financed gangs Of
criminals and racketeers to enter into
the business Of liquor production and
distribution"
New Bill Is Held Remedy.
The remedy, the committee held, Is
the new alcohol control bill. 1t i'm
poses q $40 occupational tax on i'm
porters and those who sell liquor In
interstate commerce, on distillers, wine
producers. brewers. rectifers, whole.
salers and others.
It then directs that permits must
be obtained by all diStillers, wine pro-
ducers, rectifiers or blenders Of dis
titled spirits or wines, bottlers OF
warehousemen and bottlers of dis
titled spirits, importers and whole
salers of distilled spirits, wine or malt
beverages.
1t stipulates that licenses shall moi
be issuable to tiled houSes"-those
connected with a brewer or distiller-
or to those which mislabel their pro-
duct or advertise it unfairly by be-
httling competitors product.
The bill also forbids interlockine
directorates.

SUPREME COURT
OF BANKING URGED
Should Be Able to Control
Next Boom, Prof.
Rogers Says.
By the Associated Press.

ITHACA, II. Y, July 20.-A supreme
court Of banking to prevent the next
American boom from getting out Of
hand was urged yesterday by Prof.
James Harvey Rogers, prominent Yale
economist and recent monetary ad-
wiser to President Roosevelt.
Addressing the monetary conference
Of the annual session Of the American
Institute Of Cooperation, he said the
banking bill now before Congress
should "be made much stronger" The
members Of the Federal Reserve or
Banking Control Board, he said,
should be endowed with the independ-
ence and prestige of Supreme. Court
justices, so they will have the nerve
to put the brakes on when the time
comes"
Rogers said he had no patience with
those who feared immediate imitation
from the devaluation Of the dollar, but
asserted that now Is the time to take
steps to prevent an inflationary boom
four or five years from now, which
would result in another collapse like
1929.
DR.. Lionel D. Edie, New York econ
omist, said stabiliZation Of the dollar
with the British pound, on sort of
trial marriage basis should be under
taken at once to ward of serious in
ternational currency disturbances"
Maj. L. L. D. Angas, English eco
nomic writer and author Of recent
pamphlets forecaSting a boom" in
the United States, pointed out that
an important contributing factor to
the excesses Of the last boom and
the resulting collapse was the failure
Of the banking authorities to prevent
excessive lending Of short-term funds
for speculation.
DR.. George F. Warren, who played
prominent role in the Washington
gold price changing Of 1888, described
the old gold standard as inadequate
to maintain the democratic form of
government in modern society, and
asserted that France was risking dc
tatorship in her struggle TO stay on
gold.
Prof. o. NJ. W. Sprague Of Harvard
said he thought all Of the speakers
were in agreement that mo further
improvement would result from fur
ther devaluation of the dollar" He
suggested a gradual return to the
gold standard.
Frank E. Gannett, publisher of
the Gannett newspapers, told the in
stitute that newspapers had much in
common with agricultural cooper
atives through their experience in CO.
operative news gathering. He said:
Every time you pick up your news
paper and read an Associated Press
dispatch you are making direct con-
tact with one Of the important CO.
operative organizations in the world.
