(Continued from Page 1.) action was taken, it was learned, be- cause Hague had ordered the demo- cratic minority to side with the gov- ernor on the bill and proponents feared it's defeat had 1t been brought up.
 Wilentz Disappointed
 The sidetracking of the bill was understood to have been a disap- pointment to Attorney General David H. Wilentz who based his prosecution of Hauptman non evi- dence unearthed by Schwarzkopfs s department. Earlier, Wilentz con- ferred with the state police and prosecutor Anthony Hauck of Hun- terdon county. It was while this conference was in progress that the high state official disclosed that he felt new reprieve probably would extend Hauptmann's life till June The German carpenter, who was given his first 30-day reprieve Jan uary 17. is now scheduled to die the week of March 30.
 Governor Denies It
 Governor Hoffman almost imme- diately reiterated that he would grant no new repricve without the agreement of Wilentz but the high official was in a position to speak with authority. The unfavorable &C., ton on the Young bill was regard ed, however, as possibly altering the set-up on which the reprieve predic- ton was based.
 Tn some quarters 1t was felt that Wilentz, should he be thwarted in the Schwarzkopf matter, might in- yoke Q 3s-year- supreme court decision under which, legal authori- ties contend, he can have a new re- prieve set aside. Although this might offend some high in the dem ocratic councils of the state, Wilentz does not intend to run for any office and thus need fear no political pen- alty.

caustic language to those who profited by return or non-payment of processing levies.
 By far the greater part of the processing taxes" he said, "was in the main either passed on to con- sumers or taken out of the price paid producers.
 "The congress recognized this fact last August and provided that. in the event of invalidation of. the processing taxes, only those pro- cessors who had borne the burden of these taxes should be permitted to receive refunds.
 Return ImpOunded Funds
 "The return of the impounded funds and failure to pay taxes that were passed on result in unjust enrichment, contrary to the spirit of that enactment. A tax on the beneficiaries unfairly enriched by the return or non-payment of this federal excise would take a major part of this windfall income for the benefit of the public"
 Mir. Roosevelt emphasized the differentiation between the two types of taxes proposed. The cor- p0rate tax change would be permanent and intended to pay costs of permanent additions to

 Shortly thereafter, the first of sev- eral squads were sent out from strike headquarters to the stock ex- change building.
 After a night of sporadic disorder in which IS persons were arrested bringing the total to 45, police mob- ilized 67 trucks to transport patrol men to scenes of violence.
 Out of Patience
 Bambrick said representatives ol II large building chains were "ou' of patience" with the Realty Advis- ory board, which refused to accede to any of the strikers demands, in- cluding a closed shop and a $2 av- craze weekly increase.
 They won't permit themselves to be used as cats paws by the board in It's anti-union campaign" said Bambrick, president of Local 32H of tho Building Service Employes International Union.
 He said the union was encouraged by reports from Chicago that Paul David, secretary-treasurer Of the international organization of the union, had 8 $3,000,000 fund on which the New York strikers could draw.
 Partial Service
 Police reported partial service had been restored in most apartment houses in the upper east side strike area, which includes such residen- tial districts as Park avenue and Fifth avenue.

nVER the door of the impos. V ing monument which con- tains the body of President Grant, in New York City, are the words: Let us have peace." They describe this foremost soldier of the Union Army bet ter than his military titles and exploits, for he was Q simple man of peace at heart.
 Ulysses Simpson Grant was born at Point Pleasant, Ohio, on April 27, 1922. His parents were farmers and also owned a tanning works, and the boys early training was more practi- cal than academic. But he suc- ceeded in entering West Point.
 He was not an outstanding student there, and instructors probably gaped in wonder in later years as they watched the masterly strategy of this lad who had never even succeeded in looking spruce and soldierly.
 After graduation he saw ser. vice in the War with Mexico and thereafter at modest military posts until 1S46, when he re- signed his commission, and eked out Q living as farmer, real estate operator and clerk. Twenty years later he donned a uniform once more in defense of the Union. President Lincoln

 His next service to the nation was as it's President, for the two terms beginning in 1869, during the difficult reconstruc. ton period. He applied to the peacetime problems the same wisdom and tenacity which had marked his war campaigns.
 In the last years of his lifes after leaving the White House, swindlers involved him in . fin- ancial undertaking that stripped him of his fortune and property, and at 62 he was obliged to throw himself feverishly into the task of providing for his family.

CONVENTION GOSSIP
Borah and Vandenberg Walking
Through Hotel Arm. .in.Arm

CLEVELAND, June e.-Senators
Borah of Idaho and Vandenberg OF
Michigan are friends. anyway.
The two rival candidates for Presi-
dent. who on successive days have
claimed the convention headlines, Gre
ated a minor sensation last night when
they walked through crowded hotel
lobby arm IN arm, smiling and chat
ting
They made their way through the
crowd. passed out the door. and refus-
ing a cab, walked OF across the public
square together.
There was no immediate explana-
ton of their visit.
Borah returned alone to his hotel
an hour after the two had left.
Asked what the walk meant, Borah
said: ASK Van"
Later he added: 81 don't think it
had any significance"
It took the Idaho Senator half an
hour to make his way through the
hotel lobby from the door to the ele-
vators. He shook hands with several
hundred people on the way.
Vandenberg's reply after their visit
to questions about Borah's attitude
was:
"I know nothing about Borah."
Evening star., 1936-06-09

a matter of fact Borah's ideas are not
so far away from those of Landon on
the major questions at issue and a
careful bit of writing will bring a
reconciliation of viewpoints. 1t will
be up to the Idaho Senator to make
the break, if any occurs-the Landon
managers will do everything they can
to hold him in line.
Pressure Put On Borah.
Inside the Idaho delegation Is a
strong Landon sentiment which means
that pressure is being put on Mr..
Borah to do nothing that will disturb
the serenity of the Landon momen-
tum. What has disturbed the Senator
is the drafts of proposed platforms.
Some of them are highly unpalatable
to him and to other progressives, but
the real platform hasn't been written
and before it goes to the convention,
the Landon lieutenants will give It
the once-over and do some adding
or subtracting.
The prospect is that Representative
Langworthy of Missouri. a Landon
man. will be chairman of the Reso-
lutions Committee. The Landon point
of view on platform is being developed
in the informal conferences by Henry
Allen and William Allen White of
Kansas and they are both experienced
hands in writing progressive platform
planks.
Mr.. Borah can be satisfied If he
really wants to be, that is If he does
not want to use the platform as
spearhead for the furthering of the
Vandenherg candidacy.

broader standard Of living. Even old
countries. long Jagged in their insti-
tutions of government. were gradually
extending more freedom and RESPONSE
bility to individual men and women.
The productive genius of mankind
was continuously bringing forth new
desirable things, and creating new
wealth.
Mans ingenuity was bringing coun-
tries and communities closer together,
enriching the chance for youth, both
spiritually and materially.
Movement Turned From Course.
This onward march of democracy.
of increased freedom, appeared to be,
as a great historian said, the for
ward movement of history That
movement is now being turned from
its course. Some of the other coun-
tries of the world are heading in
opposite directions from democracy
and freedom. The truth is We seem
to be witnessing one of the great re-
treats of history. We shall have to
decide whether this retreat of civiliza-
ton shall spread to our own coun-
try, or whether this retreat shall be
turned back from our shores before
it is too late.
"As part of this question, you face
a decision between two views. You
will have to decide between sta
tionary society and one Of progress
and advancement. One of these views
presupposes we have reached the end
of the road in our national develop
ment. Now, this is not a particularly
new view. Henry Adams wrote years
ago, that over the last two centuries
tionary period was near.
THE same belief was current In
the early 1905. Our business ex-
pansion up to then had been largely
created by an expanding Western
frontier.
Then, as now, some said that we
had come to halt, and that oppor-
tunity would be less in the future
tnan in the past. But our people
had faith in themselves and in the
country's future, and they quickened
that faith with works. A new era
was opened up. This new era brought
on many mistakes, many inequalities,
and many sins of omission and COM
mission. But in spite Of its mistakes
and inequalities it nevertheless pro-
duced the most widespread prosperity
the world has ever known, with more
new things coming within the reach
Of the average man than ever before.

Gratis fire the first shot in the battle
OF human freedom" and recon-
mended an amendment which would
give the States the right to legislate
concerning hours. conditions of work
and minimum wages. When Mr..
White arrived in Cleveland 1t was
clear that he would sit on the ReSo-
lutions Committee to help write the
platform and that he would propose
such plank with a leading candi-
dates hearty backing. En- route to
the convention. Mr. Hoover added his
important approval. At present. it
looks as though such a plank would
be in the platform.
Implications Important.
The proposal has extremely impor-
tant implications, and it might be
well to consider what some of them
are. For no more than a week S
thought has been given to the mat
ter. and that in the midst of Conven-
tion preliminaries and their attend
ant confusions. The predominant at
titude expressed here by supporters of
a plank seems to be that such an
amendment would only give to the
States the rights that they thought
they had" The average layman may
have thought that the States had
such rights, but no groups concerned
with social legislation in the States
and no students of constitutional law
have labored under any such illusion.
They have struggled to frame legisla-
tion, always with the possibility. even
the probability, of Supreme Court
veto in mind. and have always known
that only a series Of Supreme Court
tests would settle the question. The
advocates of constitutional change
have consistently maintained that
the Constitution and the precedents
established by previous decisions
made it impossible for either the Fed
eral Government or the States to act
to regulate relations between employ
ers and employees. wages. working
hours, or any conditions not directly
concerned with demonstrable matters
Of health except for minors and per-
haps for women. And now 1t appears
that they were right.
The questions now raised are. first:
Is it desirable that such regulation
should clearly be made a legal func
ton of government? The proposed

- LEVELAND, June s.-The most
4 dramatic thing that has thus
far developed at the Repub-
ncan convention is the pro-
posal to amend the Constitution to
give the States the right to legislate
concerning matters Of wages, hours
and working conditions. A week ago
constitutional amendment was the
thing farthest from Republican
thoughts. Indeed, it looked as though
the main campaign would be centered
around the sacredness and untouch-
ableness of that document. Landon
supporters came to the convention
Justify singing a campaign song. the
chorus Of which Is:
'Landon. oh, Landon, will lead to
victory
With the dear old Constitution, and
it's good enough for me-"
But the Constitution has not been
good enough for Gov. Landon and
many other Republicans since week
ago, when the Supreme Court declared
