SCORED
FOR NEUTRAL
BILL FIGHT
.cReynoIds Charges
Powerful Group
Blocks Passage
international News Service

A powerful lobby has brought
pressure on members of Congress
in an effort to block passage Of
the Administration'S neutrality
bill, Chairman McReynolds, Of
Tennessee, of the House Foreign
Affairs Committee, asserted today.
Testifying before the House
Rules Committee, McReynolds
said he had been informed that
certain" interests are exerting
considerable effort to wreck that
section Of the measure which per-
mitS the President to declare as
contraband commodities coming
under the definition Of materials
Of war.
McReynolds appeared before
the rules committee requesting
that group to give the neutrality
bill legislative right Of way and
allow eight hours general debate
by House members.
Action withheld
The committee withheld action
on the request pending further
hearings. McReynolds said:
81 have reasons to believe
that certain interests are fight
ing this bill. / have been ad.
vised IL iS one Of the worst lob
bies around here. Some men,
bers of the House don't want to
vote for the bill because they
have been told It means inter-
ference with certain types Of
trade"
McR&ynolds bitterly assailed
statements made before the Sen
ate Foreign Relations Committee
by John BasSett Moore, noted
authority on international law,
who characterized the proposed
neutrality legislation as a move to
place the United States in the
League Of Nations. McReynolds
declared:
"That statement is far fetched.
We are merely trying to pass
domestic legislation to prevent
our people from becoming en-
broiled In war. There Is no rea-
SON for such criticism.
MUST PAY FOR PEACE
president Roosevelt has not
conferred with any foreign ma
tiOn In the preparation Of this
bill, and no representative Of
the League Of Nations had any
thing TO do with drafting it."
The chairman admitted that
during war declarations of contra
band materials by the President
necessarily will affect America &
trade. He explained:
''In the case Of cotton, for ex-
ample, England, IL engaged in
war and finding she could not
get all the cotton she needed in
the United States, probably
would 60 to South America or
Egypt for this product.
However, II the American
people want neutrality they will,
Of course, have to pay some
thing for 1t. 1t is much cheaper
to lose . little trade than 60 to
war and lose thousands Of lives"

TRENTON, N. j., Feb. 4 U.N.S).
Persistent reports that political
foes Of Gov. Harold Hoffman
would take steps to circumvent his
investigation into the Lindbergh

confirmed.
AsSemblyman Herbert Young

Parker in Trenton

were reports that Parker was at.

evidence to justify the arrest Of
a man who has reputedly been

Parker is said to be working
on the theory that the kidnapping
and the $4,000 ransom extor

"These suggested remedies,
however, were abandoned upon
consideration Of the legal limi-

the fact that the Congress had

TRAFFIC PERIL
SEEN IN POOR
STREET LIGHT
Cut in Appropriation
for Lighting Increased
Auto Deaths

Curtailed street lighting, care
lessness on the part of pedes-
trians and the large number Of
taxicabs in the city were pointed
to as increasing the traffic haz-
ards here, as witnesses testified
today before the House District
subcommittee studying the local
traffic situation.
M. o. Eldridge, assistant traf-
fic director, called attention to
the decrease in street lighting
and asserted that it has con.
tributed considerably to the traf-
fic accident rate in Washington.
Appropriations Cut
Recalling that the appropria-
tions for street lighting were re-
duced by Congress over the op-
position Of city heads in 1884,
Mr.. Eldridge told the subcommit-
tee:
"The trend Of night traffic
fatalities In the city has In
creased SO per cent since this
reduction was made, while day
time traffic fatalities has In
creased but "a per cent"
He placed before the commit
tee the results Of a study of this
question which was made by q
traffic department employe, in
which the street lighting curtail-
ment was described as false
economy" 1t was pointed out
that poor street lighting was a
contributing factor in between IL
and 80 per cent Of the traffic &C.
cidentS in 1894.
Pedestrian Accidents
AS the hearing opened today
William Van Duzer, traffic di-
rector, placed before the subcom.
mittee q tabulation showing the
traffic accidents in which pedes.
TRANS were involved.
1t revealed that the types of &C.
cidentS in which pedestrians were
mostly involved were those in
which the pedestrian either

walk, crossed against the red light
crossed at the croSS-walk where
there was no traffic light or where
children were playing in the
streets.
Representative Randolph Car
penter Cd Of Kansas, chairman
Of the subcommittee, said:
"The figures would indicate
that the pedestrians were largely
at fault. / believe that il the
drivers Of automobiles operated
their cars carefully, did mot
violate the speed laws and were
not let to believe that they have
the right Of way over the pedes-
trian in the middle Of the block,
they would be more alert and
many Of these pedestrian-autO-
mobile accidents would be
avoided"

WILL SET TIME
LIMIT FOR
ANSWER
Lack Of Reply to Place
Onus for Failure
on America
Copyright 1885. by International
News Servios)


GENEVA, Feb. A virtual ul-
timatum by the League Of Nations
calling upon the United States
either to cooperate in cutting off
1taly's oil supply or "bear the
moral responsibility in the eyes Of
the world" for the failure Of
League sanctions was preached to-
day to the technical Subcommit-
tee now studying means Of ap-
plying an oil ban.
A member Of the experts CON-
mittee informed International
News Service that the group
would probably" approve the oil
embargo ION condition that the
United States conforms.
Time Limit To Be Set
The most astounding aspect Of
this plan is the fact that, accord
ing to the committeeman, q def
mite date will be fixed by the
technicianS before which Wash
ington must reply.
If the State Department does
not answer by then, announcing
the status Of American neutrality
legislation and its Interpretation
the presumption in League cir
cles is that the oil embargo will
go by the boards, and the blame
will be pinned onto America.
The committee has not yet de-
cided upon the time limit.
Coincident with this proposal,
Italy launched a vigorous cam.
paign to steer the committee
away from further sanctions,
with the outspoken warning that
Italy will quit the League II the
oil ban Is approved. An Italian
spokesman said:
''ThiS step would not be the
result Of any practical effect
that oil sanctions might have,
because we not only have stocks
Of gasoline, but have also &C.
quired tankers Of our own for
transporting oil from the Unit
ed States.
I'VE would rather be forced to
leave the League because Of the
moral effect on all Italians, who
are not afraid Of the oil embargo
Itself, but would consider it an
.aggravatiOn Of the Leagues
anti.Italian activities"
THREATS WON BEFORE
This statement followed . series
Of articles in most Italian news
papers warning that more sane
tons might cause q general
European outbreak. Similar in
Timidation by the Italians twice
before led to postponement Of the
oil Stoppage, notably when Premier
Laval Of France repeatedly fright
ened Foreign Minister Hoare of
Britain into approving the ILL
fated Paris peace plan.
The League technical commit
tee has been going deeply into the
possibilities of leaks in the oil en-
barge, and found that, unless
America declares oil an essential
war commodity, the ban would be
practically useless so long as tank
ers could be had to carry the oil
to Italy. America produces
$4,000 tons Of oil out Of the
worlds 206,00O,000, according to
the committees statistics.
TankerS, then, 5ecame the i'm.
portant question, with the discov-
cry that Italy has 100000 tons,
and of non-League members. the
e United States has 2,409 900. Ger
many. 121, 900, and Japan Ill 900.
Most Of the remainder Of the
worlds total Of $4,000 tons be-
longs to League powers.
