WIRE-TAP CHARGES
HELD MALICIOUS
Gadsden Says Utilities Executives
Welcome Probe of Rankin
Alterations.

Representative Rankin. Democrat,
of Mississippi, author of the wire
tapping" charges in the holding COM
pany row, yesterday was accused of
'maliciousneSs" by Philip H. Gads-
den, chairman of the Committee OF
Public Utility Executives. He said:
When Representative John E.
Rankin, who claims to be the PreSi-
statement that the public utility
companies were tapping his telephone
wires, it was generally believed that
the remark, unfortunate as it was,
was made in jest. By repeating that
accusation today, Mr.. Rankin appar-
emily is beginning to believe his own
statement.
Repetition Of a. false statement
cannot make a truth out of it-and
can be inspired only by maliciousness,
The Committee of Public Utility Ex-
ecutives welcomes an investigation OF
this latest charge to demonstrate that
it is as false and absurd as other
statements made by Mr.. Rankin In
sponsoring the Wheeler-Rayburn bill

1t is pointed olt. however. that
last week the American Government

WAR WITH JAPANESE
SEEN BY DURANT
Tokio's Conflict With Russia Does
Not Lessen Possibility,
He Says.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, July 10.-Dr. Will
Durant. author and traveller, outlines
an ominous picture of the possibility
of war between Japan and the
United States in THE Story of Civil
ization: Our Oriental Heritage" pub
lished today.
Such a war, of course" states the
author in the first of his projected
five volumes on the history OF man
kind, would be a bitter conclusion
to Americas opening of Japan.
"But there is a tide in the affairs
of states which. If uncontrolled be-
fore it gathers strength, sweeps a
Nation into circumstances where its
only choice is between humiliation
and war; and men above military
age tend to prefer war to humiliation.
THE danger of a conflict with
Japan is not lessened by the appar-
ent likelihood of war between Japan
and Russia; for if these nations
throw down the gauntlet to each
other again We shall be sorely
tempted to intervene on the ancient
principle that it is wiser to help
destroy a competitor who is already
attacked than to wait for victory to
strengthen him dangerously.

recall that Theodore Roosevelt was
frequently the victim Of this form of
attack, as was Grover Cleveland.
Those who sought to damage the in
domitable T. r. spread rumors that
he was intoxicated most of the time
and others spread reports there that
he was insane. In the case OF Cleve-
land the whsperings were that he
was a wife beater and an inebriate
In the case of President Wilson the
whispered stories were that he was
mentally unbalanced as a result of
his illness, that he was a raving
maniac, that he was really insane
Whispering stories about President
Harding dealt principally with his
being heavy drinker and that he
frequently was untitled to attend to
his work and that his sudden death
was from suicide
Even Calvin Coolidge came in for
similar share of such rumors. There
were stories that he mistreated Mrs
Coolidge, that they were to be di-
vorced. Curious and unfounded gos-
sip was also spread about President
Hoover, and some of it was printed.
All of these presidential stories
found some believers, and probably
many. but they were all proved un-
true and died accordingly.
According to those who are about
Mr. Roosevelt daily and who fire.
quently see him behind scenes, he
is in splendid physical condition, and
those who talk with him are always
impressed with his unfailing cheer
fulness and alert knowledge of what is
going on.
Regardless of what Mr.. Roosevelt
may utter in the meantime in the
form Of an answer to these attacks,
it is known that he is counting heav-
lily upon his contemplated swing across
the continent in the Fall, when he
will make several major addresses.
In other words, he will give millions
throughout the country an opportu
nifty to see him and to hear him and
to let them judge for themselves
whether there is any truth in the
whispered attacks. Those who have
Travelled with Mr.. Roosevelt before
have every reason to expect a strenu-
Gus expedition when Mr.. Roosevelt
leaves Washington for the Pacific
Coast. From former experiences. they
are confident that he will on this
occasion set pace, both mental and
physical, that will tax every one in
the party and wear them down. every
one except the President himself.

Mussolini is likely to hasten tie at
tack. The Italian war fever has
reached a high pitch. Inflanlatory
speeches, brass bands, military
parades, heroic moves, in short all
the assets of all intelligent, modern
war propaganda have been conscrlpted
by II Duce to bring about war
like enthusiasm in hE country and
make the people forget the economic
and financial troubles which are in
evitable when a county prepares for
war on a large scale Mussolini knows
that he must not wait for the anti
climax, which is likely II occur shortly.
Thus, rain or no rain, he has de-
cided to start his attack as soon as

This Changing World
State Department Maintains Strict Silence
Ethiopian Situation.

Mussolini is also convinced that once
the military operations start, the op-
position to Italy's action both in the
United States and in Great Britain
will subside.
The people in this country will be
chiefly interested in the story of the
campaign. The British will not main
tain their antagonIstic attitude for a
long time. They can't afford it. say
the Italian diplomats.
X X X
In this surmise the Italians are not
far wrong. Great Britain would like
to maintain an independent Abyssinia.
But once the Italians start fighting
they cannot but help Italy, because
an Italian defeat would have in
calculable consequences on the whole
British Empire. The white nations
would lose face If first-class white
power were defeated by the
Abyssinians and such a defeat would
have repercussions not only in the
Sudan, Egypt and Arabia, but also in
India and the other parts of the
British Empire where a handful of
white soldiers rule millions OF natives.
Such a situation occurred after
Mustapha Kemal, the dictator of
Turkey, forced the allied powers,
British, French and Italians, to their
knees in 1923.
The consequence of that defeat was
a threat to the French North African
Empire by Abdel Krim, the leader of
the Riff tribes in Northern Morocco.
They were just a handful of men
not more than 10000 ill-equipped
Riff warriors. The French, supported
by the Spaniards, had to send about
10000 of their best soldiers, under
the command of Marshal Petain, to
subdue them. And it was a touch
and-go affair.
It stands to reason that if Selassie
we're to defeat the Italians the roper
cussions throughout Africa and Asia
will be still more potent and the
Colonial empire of the French and the
British would be endangered.
X
The French see this probably better
than the British. This is one of the
reasons why the French government
is doing all it can to help the Italians.
The French like the Abyssinians,
for almost 100 years they have been
their chief supporters. But the
reason of state" compels them now
to throw their old Sxiands oQoehea2d.

meets with too many difficulties and
some set-backs in their attempt to
cross the mountain passes leading
from Eritrea to Ethiopia. the French
government will authorize Mussolini
to land troops at Djibouti and take
them by rail to Adds Ababa.
Many people in France and in other
countries will call such an action "ab-

of no consequence when the prestige
of the white race must be maintained.
