Neu Federal Crime LnUs
 Put on Congress Work-List

WASHINGTON, Jan. 14.-It may as well be put down right now that an unexpected newcomer will go on the list of congressional subjects for this session.
 The wide public interest manifest ed in the flight of the Lindberghs to Europe has made it all but certain that efforts further to increase the Federal authority over crime will be made
 Rocky Road Seen
 Granting such a movement reach es the stage where new enactments are in close prospect, however, the road from there on is likely to be a rocky one. There is, and always has been, in Congress an important sec tion of influential opinion against a high degree of concentration in Washington of investigative and prosecuting power.
 Men of this school always say they yield to no others in their desire to stamp out crime, but differ at fundamental points with those who favor turning over the more import ant police functions to Federal au- tharities. Opposition is based on the theory that tis unwise so to lift responsibility from state and local officials.
 Most of those in this group are high-ranking Democrats, clinging to old doctrines of states rights. Oper- ating on the same general philosophy they have successfully opposed fed eral anti-lynching law.
 The "Lindbergh Law
 Congress first showed vital inter- est in the subject of Kidnapping in 1892, when it passes the 'Lindbergh law" making it felony to transport kidnapped persons across state lines. In 1884, measures going much fur ther were passed, one of them mak- ing it presumptive that kidnap- ing was interstate-and thus sub tect to Federal authority-if the vic- tim was missing more than three days.

Italy Wary of
 Sanctions; Sends Oil Around Horn

CRISTOBAL, Canal Zone, Jan. IA. Although the Panama Canal is bound by international agreement to accommodate the ships of all nations, irrespective of agreements govern ing cargoes, Italy is dodging possible entanglements over future oil sane tions.
 A few days ago an Italian tanker, rare enough at all times in this To- cality, transited the canal in ballast enroute for Talara, Peru. She was the S.S. Stelvio.
 Her captain told canal officers here that he would return to Genoa by way of the Straits of Magellan with his cargo of crude oil.

Major Networks Refuse Facilities for Political
 Dramatizations

NEW YORK, Jan. 1.-Two major broadcasting companies, NEG and CBS have refused their facilities to the Republican National Committee for political purposes.
 Both systems refused to sell COP Chairman Henry P. Fletcher facili- ties for political dramatization of the New Deal and Republican issues. In addition, Columbia system per- manently banned any form of dra- matization of political issues and ruled off the air all paid political broadcasting until after the party conventions.
 Columbia's President, William s. Paley said it is not the policy of the system to permit anyone to make use of the facilities as they saw fit, since the responsibility for the structure of the broadcasting lies with us rather than with those who buy time from us"
 Lenox R. Lofl, President of NEG, wrote Fletcher: ITO accept such dra- matic programs as you have offered would place the discussion of vital political and national issues on a basis of dramatic license rather than upon a basis of responsibility for stated fact or opinion"
 From Was h ington, Chairman Fletcher hurled charges of 'cen- sorship" at the broadcasting com- panies.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 14.-By the singular and macabre coincidence of death the Senate's two most bitter opponents of President Roose- welt were stilled before the open ing of the 1886 Congress.
 Huey P. Long and Thomas D. Schall, so active in the 1885 ses- sion, lost their lives violently. No two other men in Congress have been more vocal against the Ad- ministration: certainly no others would have been more arduously opposed for reelection.
 The way in which they met death was widely different--Long from an assassin's bullet at Baton Rouge,

AL SMITH SEEN AS ACTIVE FOE
 OF ROOSEVELT
Believed Desperate Battle to Be Waged Against
 Administration
By BYRON PRICE (Chief of Bureau, The Associated Press, Washington

Press, Washington
 Al Smiths return to the open arena of politics has enlivened the Democratic scene greatly, although opinions differ as to the ultimate importance of the event.
 It is beginning to be understood generally that MT. Smiths objec- tions to MT. Roosevelt and his poli- cies are fundamental, deep-seated, earnest and tinged with a personal exasperation which almost sur passes the bounds of ordinary lan- guage.
 The conviction that the break between the two is complete and enduring, on Smiths side at least, arises from several great and small causes.
 One is the comparatively minor incident of the rejected White House invitation. Another is Smiths constant devotion to the aims and activities of the Liberty League, now the most active engine of effort against Roosevelt. The strongest cause, perhaps, is the now widely-disseminated knowledge of private and semi-private re- marks Smith has made about the New Deal"
