LOBBY CASH DATA
Committee Wants to Know
if Consumers Must Pay
for Fight.
BY the Associated Press.

pS tliC looOIldlCu 1853
An effort to determine whether
consumers must pay for the power
industry's fight against abolition Of
its holding companies was begun last
night by the Senate Lobby Commit
tee.
Elaborate questionnaires went for
ward to all companies known to have
participated. They asked the source
OF funds supplied for the battle as
we'll as information on how, when and
where and by whom 1t was spent.
Already the committee was in one
public controversy over material
taken by its investigators. Philip H.
Gadsden, chairman Of the Committee
of Public Utility Executives, termed
the seizure of his committees records
a raid and an outrage"
Black Is AstoniShed.
But Chairman Black, Democrat. of
Alabama. expressed astonishment at
Gadsden's statement, issued after his
return to Philadelphia. He noted
Gadsden made no complaint when
appearing before the committee. but
told it he would be glad to make all
his records available.
In it's new questionnaire Black said
the committee wanted to know
whether the expenditures went onto
the books of the companies and, If so,
whether they were entered in a way
which might cause increased rates.
Meanwhile the committee tempo
rarily abandoned its hearings. They
already had revealed an expenditure
of 100000 by Gadsden's committee,
which did not include sums used by
individual power company officials
who came to Washington.
For a few days the committee will
be busy examining returns from its
missionaries and the controverted
records it seized, to the indignation
of Gadsden, at the Mayflower Hotel
here.
Question Asked.
Black said the QuestionnaireS asked
the power companies who spent the
money, what they did with it, where
they spent it, how they spent it and
where the money came from 1t
went, he added, to a large number
of holding companies, their associates
and subsidiaries.
By this method the committee
hopes also to establish how much the
companies spent in their own terri
tories, in advertising and in circular
izing stockholders and consumers with
requests to write or wire their Repre-
sentatives in Congress.
Reply Made to Record Taking.
Gadsden Friday gave the Lobby
Committee the 100000 figure of his
organizations expenditures To his
denunciation of the taking of his
records, H. A. Blomuuist. slim COM
mittee Investigator, replied it was i'm
possible to distinguish between per-
sonal and official files, that employees
of the Utility Committee were pres
ent when he and other investigators
visited their headquarters, and that
Gadsden came in before they were
finished and expressed no indigna-
ton.
Black added that Gadsden's state
ment was probably an afterthought
suggested by his $150,000 lawyers"

Experts who conducted an exami-

Italian authorities in Rome yesterday
received Secretary of State Hulls
statement of support for the Kellogg
BRAND peace pact with the asser-
ton that they had "in no way"
violated the agreement to outlaw
war as an instrument of national
policy.
In London Hulls statement evoked
the comment that an Anglo
American united front" against
war in Africa is possible if the
United States will join Great
Britain in such a move.
In Africa military precautions on the
Part of Italy moved forward with
unabated intensity. Massaua, the
chief seaport in the Italian colony
of Eritrea, was described as city
of soldiers and stevedores, laboring
strenuously to move men and sup
plies into the zone where hostilities
are expected in September.
Rome Blames Ethiopia.
ROME. July Is (P.-Authoritative
sources emphasized tonight that Italo-
Ethiopian border incidents were not
of Italy's choosing. claiming that
Ethiopia was responsible for a series
of unfriendly actions.
This attitude was expressed as
these authorities. commenting on Sec
retary of State Hulls declaration in
support of the Kellogg BRAND pact,
asserted that Italy in mo way" has
violated that treaty outlawing war.
Would Attend Council Session.
The suggestion was made that Italy
would attend meeting of the League
of Nations Council If that body
should be convened to deal with the
Italo- Ethiopian conflict, although it
was stated that Italy would oppose
taking orders" from the Council.
Meanwhile. Italy is watching closely

company. the J. G. White Engineer

Lake Tsana is the source of the

Negotiations to a Head.
Negotiations which have been going
on for years among the British. Egyp-
tian, Sudanes, and Ethiopian govern
ments, have been brought to a sud-
den head. it Is believed here, by the
Italian military preparations in East
Africa.
In effect, Italy does not favor the
plan. 1t gives money to Ethiopia,
