hastily drawn neutrality law expiring
February 20, the bill aims at restrict
ing not only trade. but financial deal
ings with nations at war.
A prediction that some new neutral
ity bill would be passed at this session
Of Congress was made yesterday by
Senator Robinson, the Democratic
leader, but he declined to enlarge on
its form.
The bill probably viii shape the
lines for q major congressional battle.
It was reported authoritatively that
the question Of limiting trade with
belligerents to at least normal peace.
time basis and the problem of re-
stricting money supplies to such ma
tons would be dealt with in the
measure.
Strong indications were given also
that the bill would seek some dis
cretionary authority for the President
IN invoking embargoes against warrine
countries. But neither the projected
extent Of this power, nor the depth
Of the trade and financial provisions
were revealed.
Around the question Of discretionary
authority for the Chief Executive tc
embargo such war materials as oil and
cotton the heaviest Of the congress
sional fighting probably will occur.
McReynolds. an advocate Of wider
discretionary power for the Executive
said he would introduce the measure
today in the House. Pittman will pre-.
sent the same bill In the Senate on
that body's first calendar day, probably
Monday.
Nye Group Shapes Bill.
The Senate group headed by Sen
ator Nye, Republican, Of North Da-
kota, which has opposed giving the
President power to discriminate
among warning nations, also has
drafted bill which in Its tentative
form makes permanent the present
mandatory arms embargo and pro-
poses giving the President authority
to restrict goods or credits to warning
nations to the average of a s or 10
year period
In addition, 1t would keep American
ships cut of the danger zone by re-
quiring belligerents to come to Amer
ican shores for whatever they pur-
chase here
AS with other bills, 1t would seek
also to clarity regulations affecting
ships flying the American nag and
the restrictions IN s,lhnoa rinee ey,tar

Ld,Un1aking
|. Congress ConUenes.

Under the twentieth, or So
called lame duck" amend
ment to the Constitution, the Con-
gress Of the United States Is con-
vened on January 8 of each year.
Vice President Garner, the Sen
ate's presiding officer, at IL o'clock
noon raps sharply with a solid
ivory gavel. The Senate then is in
session. At the same time, at the
opposite end Of the Capitol, Speak
er Byrns raps with gavel to con-
vene the House Of Representatives.
After preliminaries such as the
swearing in Of new members, ap-
pointment Of committees to notify
the President Congress awaits his
recommendations for legislation,
election Of officers and employees by
each house, the two houses ad-
journ.
Then follows q Joint session in
the chamber Of the House of Rep
resentatives to hear the Presidents
message on the state of the Union.
The Constitution provides that
the President shall from time to
time give to the Congress informa-
tton on the state of the Union, and
recommend to their consideration
such measures as he shall Judge
necessary and expedient."
Usually the President sends a
general message at the opening Of
a session, discussing general con.
ditions and recommending legisla-
tion. Later he may send brief mes
sages suggesting legislation on one
particular topic.
These messages are referred to
Senate and House committees.

and responsibility Of the individual
traders.
Although 1t Is realized the neutral
ity bill conceived almost In its EN-
tirety by Secretary Hull and his ad;
visers will be open to criticism by the
extremists In both Houses, the State
Department feels confident that 1t will
pass without any fundamental changes.
Leaders Of both parties in the
Senate and in the House have been
appraised Of the serious Developments
which might occur between January
is and next Spring and are aware
that, while this bill may not be con-
sidered perfect, 1t is the best that
can be obtained under the circum-
stances.
While 1t may be conceivable tina;
America can break OF all intercourse
with outside nations 1t Is an admitted
impossibility that in the field of eco
nomic relations such break should oc-
cur without serious damage to thi,
country's economic life.
This Is the reason why the new bill
provides that American exports Of raw
materials shall be continued as ir
peace-tine and, at the same time. ir
order to avoid any entanglements, the
protection of the American flag shall
be withdrawn from those dealing with
belligerentS.

the dangerous points Of contact with
the belligerent nations.
The neutrality act passed by Con-
gress last August helped to a certain
extent the policy of the administra-
ton, but 1t did not fill all the gaps
because It did not provide the neces-
sary legislation to control the export
Of raw materials. These. If sold in
excess Of the actual peace-time needs
Of the belligerents, would tend only to
prolong the duration Of conflict and
thus increase the possibility of the
United States becoming involved in a
general conflict.
Would Keep Normal Trade.
3. While desiring to avoid any in
ternational complication. the United
States Government is reluctant to pre-
vent its citizens from making legiti-
mate peace-time profits from the sale
Of raw materials.
For this reason the new legislation
provides that American exporters can
sell their products to belligerents pro-
vided these sales are not In excess Of
the peace time purchases Of each Of
the warning nations.
About IL per cent Of the total oil
consumed In Italy In peace-time comes
from the United States. Hsnce, the
legislators did not see any reason why
Italy shall not be permitted to pur-
chase the same quantities from the
American exporters II she wants to.
In order not to further handicap
American shipping, these legitimate
exports can be transported in American
bottoms, the insurance companies hav-
ing to bear the brunt Of any eventual
loss.
I. To avoid complications as had
arisen during the World War between
1914 and 1917 when we entered the
world conflict. the neutrality bill pro-
vides that all transactions with the
belligerentS must be made at the risk

earlier.
About so members answered the
call of Representative Patman, Demo-
crat, of Texas, for meeting Of the
2l8 signers of a petition to discharge
the Ways and Means Committee from
further consideration of the Patman
bill and bring it before the House for
action.
Committee Requested.
In addition to instructing the Steer
ing Committee to proceed with all
speed to secure action on the Patrnan
bill. the group requested Patman to

the President might permit certain ex-
emptions.
One section, which McReynolds
termed very important" states that
embargoes of any kind shall be ap-
piled equally to all belligerent nations, u
unless Congress, with the Presidents s
approval. shall declare otherwise.
The bill also provides that
Americans shall carry on at their
own risk any transactions with ma
tionals of warning nations.
Americans, as under the present
law, travel on vessels Of beIligerents at
their own risk.
American ports may not be used as
supply bases by belligerents.
Submarines, under specified condi-

The provision is in the present law.

TOWNSEND PLAN
Declared to Hold System
BasiCaIIy Sound, but Gen.

By the Associated Press.

ey the Associated Press.
Friends OF Senator Borah, Republic
an of Idaho said today he views the
Townsend old-age pension plan as
basicaIly sound in some respects but
"upNprkable."
The Senator. whose supporters are
booming him for the Republican presi-
dental nomination. promised a de-
tailed statement of attitude toward the
Townsend plan at some early date.
Several recently published reports
have had Borah advocating" or
flirting with" the proposal Of DR..
Francis E. Townsend to raise $24,00n..
O00, 600 a year through a transaction
tax 70 pay all persons over so
monthly pension of $500 provided they
spent it in 80 days.
But some of those close to the
Idahoan disclosed today he believed
this monthly grant is too high. He also
believes. they said, that the plan would
not work because 80 per cent of the
taxes would fall upon persons with in
comes of $4,000 or less.
Reduction Urged.
Borah is known to have suggested
TO a group of Townsendites several
months ago. for purposes of discussion,
that the proposed pension be reduced
from 5000 to $50 and that beneficiaries
be permitted to do as they pleased with
the money. The group Immediately
divided on the question, according to
an authoritative source.
Borah was interviewed yesterday by
q score Of reporters on an article he
has written for the Recbook Maga-
zine depicting the Constitution as
'the first line Of defense against a
dictatorial Government"
criticizing any one who believes the
Constitution Is antiquated, he pictured
1t as a bulwark against Fascisn and
Communism.
Bprah said no constitutional changes
were needed at this time to permit
social security and labor legislation.
He emphasized he was not opposed to
amending it when he believed that
necessary.
In the article he quoted a Gov
ernment official" as saying the coun-
try must look for Capitalization Of
leadership in the presidency. Not in
Congress or the Supreme Court.
Identifies Official.
He identified the official, In re-
sponse to questions, as Blackwell
Smith, who was general counsel Of
theS old N. r. A. and is now out Of
Government service.
"Mussolini never stated the doctrine
Of Fascism with greater boldness or
greater clarity than it Is here stated"
Zation Of leadership We have a
praetical and impressive illustration
ofHthat nowl"
individual leadership has its
place" he said, "but there is higher
leadership to which ali individual
leadership must be subordinated. and
that is the leadership which comes
from the combined heart and brain,
and from the conscience and the soul
of millions Of intelligent and patriotic
people"
Borah emphasized that he believes
an amendment which would increase
Federal power to control national eco
nomic conditions is unessential and
undesirable.
