scratched in the work of creating
new uses for farm products and
therein lies agriculture's hope for
the future, Clifford V. Gregory.

Mr.. Gregory cited the use of soy
beans by Henry Ford to make rims
of steering wheels for automobiles
and the experiment of employing
cotton as the base for tar roads.
The immediate problem. Mr..
Gregory said, is to take care of the
production from 100000 surplus
acres put in use during the war and
left without a market when the
foreign market vanished.

LOBBY GROUPS
AGAIN BATTLE
OVER PROBES
international News Service

international News Service
Rivalry flared between the two
Congressional lobby committees
again today.
Another race for witnesses ap-
peared inevitable.
The two committees, one in the
House and one in the Senate,
fought like cats and dogs over the
fat and phantomlike Howard c.
Hopson, of the Associated Gas
and Electric Company, in the clos
ing days of the last session OF
Congress. Now, it seems, they are
on the way to another battle over
witnesses from the giant Electric
Bond and Share Company.
For weeks, investigators for the
Senate group, headed by Senator
Black CD of Alabama, have been
delving into the books of the big
holding company in New York.
Representative John O'Connor,
chairman Of the House inquiring
committee, revealed the rivalry
when he announced that the
House committee planned to open
hearings late in october, with c.
E. Groesbeck, chairman Of the
Electric Bond and Share Company
board of directors, as the first
witness.
Hearings Next Month
Senate committee members
have announced no witnesses, but
they made it plain that they in
tended probing the Electric Bond
and Share lobbying activities
against the utility holding com
pany bill in the last session OF
congress. Moreover, Senator Black
earlier announced that the Sen
ate probers would begin open hear
ings late in october, too.
Herbert Blomquist, chief investi'
gator for the Senate Committee
is even now on the road in an
investigatory capacity, rounding
up important data for the Sen
ators.
The House Committee, on the
other hand, has plans to call not
only Groesbeck, but also other
officials of Electric Bond and
Share. O'Connor said the com
mittee would probably question
the president, R. B. Hinch, and
the secretary, Samuel Murphy. .
Funds Available
= The House group planned to
hold hearings in New York and
Chicago, and possibly on the West
Coast. Under present plans, the
Black Committee intends to hold
all of it's hearings here.
Both the House and Senate
committees have plenty OF money
to continue their work. The
Senate committee is special
group, and the House lobby in
ouiry is being conducted by the
Rules Committee.

Y. F. W. FACES
BATTLE ON
ELECTION

NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 20
G.N.SO.-A stormy session was in
prospect for the thirty-sixth ma
tional encampment of the Vet
Grams of the Foreign Wars today,
with two important issues up for
decision.
The first was selection of a COM
mander.in-chief for the coming
year, and the second. the selection
of a city for the 1885 national en-
campment.
Two persons, according to re-
ports, seek the commandership.
Commander-in-Chief James E. Van
Zandt seeks reelection. while Sen
ior Vice Commander Bernard w,
Kearney, Of Gloversville, N. Y,
was regarded as another candi'
date.
The fight over selection of a
city for the next encampment
appeared three cornered, with
Denver, New York and Detroit
reported making bids. OF these,
Denver has already officially in
vited the veterans.
Introduction of resolutions has
provoked most of the discussion.
One of these, demanding a con
gressional investigation into the
Florida hurricane disaster, was
finally passed after hours OF
stormy debate.
Unanimity Of opinion was
found, however, on the bonus
issue, with the veterans voting
overwhelmingly for resolution
which demanded immediate cash
payment.
AS the resolution demanding a
Congressional inquiry reached the
floor, David Lundeen of Mime
apolis threw the meeting into an
uproar by offering a motion 10
"censure" President Roosevelt for
vetoing the bonus.
Lundeen charged that the veto
sent the veterans to their death
by forcing them into Florida re.
habilitation camps which were
wrecked and destroyed as tropi-
cal hurricane washed out over the
Keys.
Lundeen's motion split the con-
vention into two camps. A round
of debate followed but the motion
was finally tabled.
From John ]. Skillman, of
Florida, came the charge that
conditions on the Florida Keys
were the most damnable IN
peace-time history"
Commander Van Zandt an
nounced the v. F.. W. would for
mally endorse the Steiwer-Byrnes
bill at the next session of Con-
gresS.
The Washington times., 1935-09-20

to be a big Santa Claus for vote
getting. One thing that you can
not say against the Republicans.
Hoover knew that the veto meant
the loss Of votes, but he did what
ne considered his duty. That is
know the only thing we can say
Tor Herbert, aside from the fact
that he was President by chance.
Roosevelt will not do that. He
Will sign the next bill as Barney
Baruch and Vincent Astor advise
him. Yes, the vets will get the
bonuS-but even at that the Dem
ocrats won't get their votes.
I am sorry for Teddy Roosevelt.
He is good political timber, and
riding on the popularity of his
1lluStrlous uncle there is no doubt
he would get in. However, the
people are tired today of the name
Roosevelt. They do not wish any
part of it. We have for two years
heard, red and seen more RooSe-
veltS than ever before in the his
tory Of our country-from raising
babies to aeroplane construction
No, We won't care to have another
Roosevelt.
1t has come to mind that the
Roosevelt family have gone off
the air, newspapers, magazines
and aeroplanes, with the excep-
ton of the President, Why this
sudden hush? Maybe James Alloy.
sius Farley and Ben Cohen-quite
a pair, but not worth drawing to,
suggested it. Anyway, we hear
very little from them this year.
1t is the old maxim: The Demo
cratic party gets in power once
every IL to IA years, but during
their short term they are enthused
over their power that it takes
sane leadership that length of
time to bring the country back to
normal. That will be the stupen.
dous task of the Republican Presi-
dent in 1896.

suppose less the 6 per cent inter

EUev1 Bonus Won't
SdUe Roosevelt

To the Editor Of The Times:
I read in the paper that the
bonus will be paid the veterans
next year. There is no next year
for the poor devils who fought
for their country and died through
lack of care in the swamps Of
Florida. They have struggled in
vain.
Certainly we will get our bonus
next year. It would not be good
policy for the Democrats to go
before the public for votes with
out granting it. That is the main
reason why 1t was vetoed in order

Finds Socialists
Highly Intelligent
To the Editor of The Times:

To the Editor OF Inc 4lnles'
In reference to your editorial OF
September II, 1885 headed "A
Navy Anyway" I wish to verify
your assumption that there are
some intelligent Socialists.
You may be interested in know
ing that the majority of Socialists
are very intelligent people.
I consider Mr.. Norman Thomas,
Socialist leader, a very intelligent
man.
Evidently the Democrats lack a
large degree of intelligence as is
shown by their presidential choice
of 1892. The Republicans didn't
make such an excellent choice
in '28.
Socialism is the extension to in
dustry of the free self-governing
principles recognized democracy.
