Senator Metcalf of Rhode Island in
troduced a resolution for an inquiry
into the incident on behalf of free
speech"
Breaking its usual rule of silence"
the War department made public let
ter from General Craig to Secretary
Dern, declaring Hagood's record was
marked by repeated examples of lack
Of self-control, irresponsible and in
temperate statements"
Hagood had told house subcommit-
tee that it was almost impossible" to
get WPA's "stage money" for "any-
thing worthwhile" These remarks,
said Craig, "can only be characterized
as flippant in tone and entirely I'M
called for and designed to bring ridi-
cule and contempt upon civil agencies
Of the government"
Accusing him of "thinly yelled" OPP
position and contempt" toward War
department policies in the past, Craig
pointed out as "contemptuous" Ha-
goods references to CCC activities as
hobbies" collecting postage stamps
and taking an interest in butterflies. "
Seeking quick settlement Of the
controversy, Senator Byrnes, Demo

hail from Hagood's home state of

Inc goal or the new
law, Mr.. Roosevelt said in announcing
his signature, is parity, not of farm
prices. but of farm income. He said
the New Deal has mot abandoned and
will not abandon" the principle of
equality for agriculture.
The President, in a formal statement
stressed three major detectives" of
the program which he said are sin
separately and of necessity linked with
the national welfare" They were:
l. 1.-THE conservation of the soil itself
through wise and proper land use.
2. ''The re-establishment and main
tenance of farm income at fair levels
SO that the great gains made by agri-
culture in the last three years can be
preserved and national recovery con-
tinue.
3. 1.-The protection of consumers by
assuring adequate supplies of food and
fiber now and in the future"
Davis planned, as the first move, a
series Of four conferences with agri-
cultural leaders in Memphis. Chicago.
New York and Salt Lake City to for
mulate plans to take 100000 acres
out of commercial production this year
and place them in legumes and other
soil conserving crops.
The new law provides benefit pay
ments to farmers who cooperate in
federal suggestions for conservation of
soil fertility n 1896 and 1887. 1t pro-
vides, also. for federal subsidies to
states setting up permanent state pro.
grams in 1888 and thereafter.

Forgotten Men" Date to
Ancient British History

During the reign of Charles III, a
garrison at Algiers, in North Africa,
was forgotten for six. years. Faithful
to their charge, the soldiers might
have spent the rest of their lives wait
ing but for a party of sailors who dis
covered them by accident. OF the
original Is officers, only one was alive.
The soldiers were in rags and almost
starving.
Even more unbelievable, observes a
writer in the Washington Post, is the
case Of the ii. NJ. S. Falmouth. first
class British warship sent to Batavia
in 1776, and forgotten for more than
ten years by the British admiralty!
Captain Wallis, commanding the
sloop Dolphin, discovered the warship
when he called at Batavia and heard
the boom of big gun at sunset. In
yestigating, he found the Falmouth
rotting In the mud offshore. There
was not a patch of paint on her, and
her sails and rigging were rotting on
the masts. The sailors were in rags
gaunt, hungry wretches who clustered
around him like scarecrows. ALI the
officers were dead and the last sur
viving petty officer was a raving
maniac.
The crew begged to be taken of
but Captain Wallis couldn't do 1t with
out permission from the admiralty
So despite their suffering, the mer
had to stay on until he returned Il
England and explained their plight

Vandenberg Won't Enter
Ohio's Primary

G ENATOR vANDENBERG Of Mich.
~ igan has formally declined to en-
ter the Ohio Presidential primary, but
does not bar himself from considera.
ton for the Republican nomination,
Writing to the Republican state COM
mittee of Ohio, in reply to an inquiry
as to whether he would run, Vanden-
berg asserted his sole interest" in the
Republican convention was that it
should make "the wisest possible de-
cisions respecting both party leader
ship and party policies"
To conform to Ohio law, the Borah
forces have found the required sec
ond choice" This is Frank e. Can
nett of Rochester, N. Y, publisher of a
chain of newspapers. who has agreed
to fight alongside the Idaho senator
for Ohio's 80 delegates, to receive the
votes of those pledged to Borah should
the nomination of the latter be blocked
in the convention. Mr.. Gannett has
expressed the belief that Borah is the
one member of the party most likely
to recover the upstate New York vote, "
and he also holds the view that the
Idahoan would be the strongest candi
date in the agricultural states.

that the Italians also were advancing
rapidly in the southern part of the
country and said Ras Desta Demtu's
army and large numbers of warriors
from all over the south were gather
ing to try TO stop them. Marshal Bad
oglio's troops in the north were be-
sieging abb Add, % miles west of
Makale and the 5000 Philippians there
were said to be facing surrender or
determination.
With these successes on the military
side, Mussolini was reported to be los
ing economically because of the IN
creasing pressure of the various sane
tions against Italy. Because of his
weakened position at home, it was said
in Geneva and Paris he probably would
be disposed to negotiate peace if terms
satisfactory enough to save his face
are proposed.
The sanctions committee of the
League of Nations unexpectedly de-
cided that Mussolini should be asked
once more whether he is ready to dis
cuss peace; and it was understood that
If he said no, the league would proceed
to impose an embargo on oil. Such a
step, Mussolini has repeatedly assert
ed, would mean war in Europe.
Emperor Halle Selassie, according
to Geneva dispatches, sent message
to Great Britain, offering to discuss
peace on the basis of the status quo,
letting Italy retain the territory she
has occupied, provided King Edward
viii act as intermediary.
