FARLEY FLAYS
NEW DEAL
ENEMIES

SPRINGFIELD, Mass, June 5
U.S0. - Postmaster General
James A. Farley last night assailed
those critics Of the Roosevelt ad
ministration who have attacked
the economic soundness Of New
Deal" policies.
Addressing the Massachusetts,
State Democratic Convention here
Farley singled out former Presi'
rent Herbert Hoover; Col. Frank
Knox, Chicago publisher and can
didate for the Republican presi.
Dental nomination; Senator L. j.
Dickinson, of Iowa, also a presi'
Dental aspirant, and the Ameri-
can Liberty League.
Raps Liberty League
He said:
"Grudgingly the spokesman
for the Du POnt Liberty League
and the other Republican agen-
cies admit conditions have i'm
proved and that business is do
ing pretty well, but they insist
that Mr.. Roosevelt is not en-
titled to any credit for bringing
this about. They have taken up
the statement of ex-President
Hoover, to the effect that he
had the depression licked in
June Of 1882, and therefore Mr.
Roosevelt couldn't be credited
with driving the wolf from the
door"
OF Knox he said:
among those who talk .
great deal about the squander.
ing Of the peoples money Is q
distinguished aspirant for the
Republican presidential nOmina-
ton. Recently he has received
the vote Of his party in your
sister New England .State-New
Hampshire.
"He vehemently charges the
Roosevelt administration with
ruthless, reckless, reaSOnleSs ex-
travagance and he piles up the
figures of expenditures to stag.
gering totals.
DOG FOOD EXPERT"
"He is enthusiastically In
favor Of keeping the farmers
prosperous, but Is Singularly ST.
lent as to how he would 60
about doing it. He Is likewise
wildly concerned about taxes
and their effect on business"
About Dickinson he said:
"In paying tribute to the
statesmen who are after the
Republican nomination I do
not feel should overlook SEN
atOr Dickinson, of IOwa-the
dog food expert. He made an
impaSsiOned speech not long
ago to the effect that the
Roosevelt administration was
30 bad 1t had reduced men and
women to the necessity of eat
ing dog food. The erudite SEN
atOr did not realize that pre-
pared dog foods are for con-
sumption Of pampered pets and
cost more than canned beans
for example,"

detailed manner that all ordinary
phases of the budget are handled.
In passing the $1,425, ,o00,0 900 relief
act at the last session, Congress EMU
merated the general classes Of projects
for which the funds could be spent,
but left considerable flexibility as to
the amount that could be allotted un-
der each classification. While it fixed
maximum limitations on the amount
that could be used for certain general
purposes, such as highways. buildings,
flood control, educational and clerical
projects, it left leeway for increasing
the limitation on any particular class
OF work by not to exceed Is per cent,
through transfer of funds from the al
locations for other classifications.
Congressional sentiment on the form
of the next emergency relief act prob
ably will not begin to crystalline until
the President submits his legislative
program to Congress next month.
To Fight for Private Pensions.
Senator Clark also made known yes
terday he will renew his efforts for
an amendment to the social security
law to encourage preservation Of pri-
vate pension systems in industry, in
connection with the Federal old-ags
pension plan.
The fact that the Federal plan Is
about to 60 into operation. with the
first pay roll taxes due at the end Of
January, will not affect his intention
of asking Congress to give further con-

CLARK WILL PUSH
NEUTRALITY BILL
Extension of Present Policy
Seen Needed - Private
Pension Fight Planned.
BY ]. A. O'LEARY.

Extension of Americas present neu-
trality policies and the future Of the
Federal emergency relief program will
be among the major issues to come
up early in the new Congress. in the
opinion Of Senator Clark, Democrat,
Of Missouri.
In cooperation with Senator Nye,
Republican, Of North Dakota, Clark
took an active part in the considera-
ton of the present temporary neutral-
ity law, which expires May l. He
declared yesterday that events have
demonstrated the necessity for and
wisdom of a neutrality policy such as
this Government formulated in the
temporary resolutions adopted in 1885,
and continued by the last Congress
until next Spring.
The present law, he said, covers the
main objectives of proponents, of the
policy, but suggested its provisions
could stand perfecting in the process
of re-enactment. While no conferences
have been held yet on details Of new
legislation, Clark said bills probably
will be introduced in time for study
and action by the Foreign Relations
Committee before the expiration Of
the temporary statute.
Present Neutrality Policy.
The principal features of the pres
ent law are: 1t empowers the Presi-
dent to issue proclamations, when nee
essary. placing an embargo on the eX-
portation Of arms or implements Of
war to belligerents: prohibits sale of
the securities of belligerents in the
United States. except ordinary COM
mercial credits or short-term obliga-
tions of character customarily used
in current commercial business; for
bids the use of the United States as
base for supplying belligerent ships
with implements of war; regulates use
of American ports by submarines Of
belligerents.
Further relief legislation will be
necessary, Clark agreed, but made
known that he is opposed to making
future relief appropriations on lump
sum basis. He indicated his belief
that the time has come for Congress
to draft relief measures in the same
Evening star., 1936-12-06

posal at the approaching session, he
said.
Senator Clark said he understood the
Social Security Board has some
changes dealing with other phases OF
the social security law to propose, prin-
cipally of an administrative nature
He indicated that If bill Is presented
to bring about these administrative
changes, he would try to have a private
pension amendment added to that bill
He said he still deems it advisable to
have a plan that would encourage re-
tention of private industrial pension
benefits for the protection Of workers
under those plans. in case the Federal
system should be held unconstitutional
at some later date.
Original Clark Amendment.
The original Clark amendment,
which was dropped from the social Sc
curity bill just before it was enacted,
sought to exempt from the pay roll
taxes that start next month the en-
ployers and employees of industries that
operate retirement systems equal to
or more beneficial than the Federal
plan. To meet objections that were
raised against the tax-exemption fea-
ture. revised amendment was drafted
at the last session, but not acted upon
1t provided that industries with ap-
proved private retirement plans, car
ried by insurance companies, would
pay the Federal pay roll taxes, the
same as all others. Then, upon show
ing that they had also paid the insur-
ance premiums to cover their private
systems, those employers would re-
Evening star., 1936-12-06

ceive back from the Government the
reserve necessary to support the
amount Of pension called for by the
Federal plan.
1t was contended at hearings at the
last session that such private plans
would be likely to provide for larger
total pensions, but that the employers
in such cases would only get back
from the Government the reserve to
cover that part of the annuity re-
CURED by the social security act, and
which the Government otherwise
would pay the employees. The pro-
posal did not get out Of committee
during the last session.

FISHING JAUNTS
MUCH ENJOYED
MRS. FRANK RUSHTON LANDS
SAILFISH DURING RE-
CENT OUTING

Many anglers of the gentler
sex have caught sailfish, usually
assisted by some other member of
the party, but Mrs. J. Frank
Rushton, Jr., of Birmingham,
Alabama, caught fine specimen,
her first, yesterday unassisted.
Mrs. Rushton arrived Saturday
to join Mr.. Rushton, who has
been in Key West at the Over
Sea Hotel for about one month,
has been enjoying the fishing to
the limit, and has caught a large
number of all kinds.
Unlike many other anglers who
come by boat, Mr.. Rushton brings
his motive power, an eight hip,
cupboard. He hires a small fishing
craft, hangs the motor, and is off
for a day with the gamest kinds
of fish to be found in the world.
His usual objective is Sand Key,
where many of the larger fishing
craft go for good sport, and when
seen approaching the fishing
grounds. other fishermen remark,
Here comes that lucky fellow
Rushton. in his Lolly Pop" which
is the name given the boat Mr..
Rushton has been using.
Yesterday afternoon, Mr.. and
Mrs. Rushton returned with what
was said to be a boat load of all
kinds, but the prize of the catch
was, naturally. the sailfish which
Mrs. Rushton calls the finest
fish she has ever seen.

ent waters" Mr.. Rushton said. Sin

States, but I have never seen the

DECLARE GREATER VA
RIETY TO BE FOUND HERE
THAN ELSEWHERE

Nelson Davis, Louis L. Louft
and F. d. Weimann, of Washing
ton, d. O., are unanimous in their
declaration that Key West waters
contain more fish and a greater
number of varieties than they
ever imagined.
And this statement was made
only after they had been given SUBJ
stantial proof by catching a large
number of the larger and gamey
varieties, including a magnificent
sailfish caught yesterday, which
is being mounted to be taken back
to the capital.
This group of enthusiastic ang-
lers arrived Sunday, registered at
the Oversee Hotel and immedi-
ately began to get in touch with
some local guide, through Mana
ger Hughes. When this had been
arranged they began to fish.
Since their arrival they have
done practically nothing else but
fish, having as their guests at diff
ferent times, Misses Margaret F.
Scott. Gwendolyn Scott and An
ME w. Oakley, of Newburg, n.
Y, and w. E. Darling, of Gin

Mr.. Louft has been, and is still,

many specimens taken, many OF
them appealing to his artistic
sense. He is a commercial photo
grapher and has secured num-
Der of wonderful photographs OF
the various specimens taken which
he will display to his friends in

Unless there are some changes

progress, Attorney VIM. H. Ma
lone will leave Key West for an
other city in Florida.

of having to leave his native city.
Before taking his final depar-

he will prepare a statement set
ting forth his views and the rea-
