SUGGESTIONS DODD MAY BE
RECALLEDFR BERLIN HIS
DICTATOR LETTER LAUGHED AT
Nye Wants Him Brought
Home to Name Man
Who Would Rule

WASHINGTON, May IS. (UP)
Suggestions that William f.
Dodd, u. S. ambassador to Ger
many, may be recalled for writ
ing a letter warning against a
possible dictatorship in this coun-
try, were received with amuse-
ment and soothing in official
Washington last night except in
congress where three solons de-
manded action"
Senator Gerald p. Nye, r., n.
d., and Representative Hamilton
Fish, r., n. Y, proposed that
Dodd be recalled to name the
American Millionaire" who, his
letter inferred, is ready to fl
nance "and Of course control a
dictatorship. Senator William +.
Borah, R., Ida, whom Dodd as
sailed in the letter, chimed in with
the terse but scathing statement
that 81 have an idea his supposed
dictatorship is the Pigment Of a
disturbed brain. He is disgrace
to his country"
Nye said he would introduce Il
resolution calling on the state de-
partment to cable Dodd for the
billionaire's name.
"If there is such u man Dodd
should make his name known so
that congress can undertake an
investigations" Nye said.
The ambassador wrote the let
ter to Senator Carter Glass, fiery
Virginia Democrat whom Presi-
dent Roosevelt calls the "unrecon-
structed REBEL" and to other SEN
ators who are strenuously oppos-
ing the chief executives supreme
court reorganization program.
The missive was an Indictment
of minorities which, down through
American history, Dodd said, have
defeated legislation demanded by
and beneficial to the masses. Dodd
cited numerous historical prcce-
dents and concluded:
"If the party which reelected
Roosevelt on an overwhelming
majority last year decides to do
as both parties have done in the
past, we are in grave danger OF
losing our democratic system. IL
the party breaks up, the 80 per
cent anti-democratic press may
do what the 80 per cent pro-sla-
very press did in the south, 1851
1860.
"There are individuals of great
wealth who wish a dictatorship
and are ready to help Huey
Long. There are politicians who
think they may gain powers like
those exercised in Europe. One
man, have been told by person
al friends, who owns near bill
lion dollars, is ready to support
such program and, of course,
control it."
"The people," said Nye, "have
a right to know who that billion
aire is." And, said Fish in the
house, "he should be called be-
fore a senate committee and fore
ed to name the man who has ST.
0OO,OO0,0O0 to put over a dicta-
torship."
81 haven't read Dodd's state
ment," Borah said, 81 was told
he INDUCED in attacks upon the
integrity and honor of some OF
the Revolutionary fathers. l do
not propose to descend to the
level of reading outpourings OF
such irresponsible scandal mong-
ers. l regard him a disgrace to his
country. l have an idea his sup.
posed dictatorship is Pigment OF
disturbed BRAIN"

because of an anti-Fascist speech

warned Americans that "tolera-

He said Borah "may be excus-

He advised the senator from

100000 work relief bill, uphold
ing President Roosevelt's request
for adequate relief funds for the
needy and overriding the economy
attempt to cut this appropriation
by oRe-third.
WASHINGTON, May Is. (UP)
Deserted by his bewildered lead
ers and supported by only two
Democrats and FIVE Republicans,
President Roosevelt suffered a
sharp defeat in the house of rep
resentatives yesterday when re-
bellious members passed an emas.
culated CCC bill by vote Of
1856 to z.
AS the worst revolt in years
swept through both chambers,
Mr.. Roosevelt's congressional con-
tact man, Assistant Secretary Of
the Interior Charles West, hurried
to the capitol. He conferred
lengthily with house leaders who
announced afterward that the
chief executives proposed ST.
500,000,000 work-relief fund had
been salvaged from the rebellion.
A poll Of the house appropria-
tions committee, it was said,
showed a majority favorable to
the proposed 81 ,500,00o,000
grant. A subcommittee headed
by Representative Clifford Wood
rum, d.. Va, Tuesday night had
voted to reduce the amount to
81 900, 100000 in the interest Of
economy. Woodrum admitted to-
night his fight was lost in COM
mittee.
The senate likewise pushed
aside thoughts of economy and
rejected a motion to defeat an
authorization of $2,700,000 for
$l12,000,000 Gilbertsville, KY,
dam.
The defeat suffered by the
president in the house may be on
ly temporary. The CCC measure
now goes to the senate where Mr..
Roosevelt is excepted to use his
influence to restore features Of
the original proposal which were
scrapped by the house in q wild
session yesterday. These recon-
mendations embrace a plan to
make the Civilian Conservation
corps a permanent agency Of the
government.
The bill approved yesterday exc
tends the life Of the corps only
two years. Less than an hour af-
ter the house action, Chairman
Hugo L. Black, D., Ala, of the
senate labor committee reported
favorably a CCC bill containing
the presidents wishes.
House leaders confessed their
inability to stem the Democratic
revolt over the CCC measure
when they asked for only one roll
call vote yesterday on amend
ments adopted Tuesday by voice
or standing vote. The record vote
today came on the amendment
which exempts civilian employees
from civil service restrictions.
This opened up a new field Of pat
ronage to the congressman and
the job-hungry members - all Of
whom are up for reelection next
year - voted 232 to 146 in ia
vor Of the amendment.
Although the senate talked for
three hours on economy yester-
day, the only real savings came
from the senate appropriations
committee which slashed $50, 000,-
900 from the $500,000,000 grant
for soil conservation in the agri-
culture department supply bill.
A group headed by Senator
Bennett c. Clark, D., Mo-, had
opposed the Gilbertsville, KY,
dam authorization as an unneces-
sary expense at this time. The
economy pleas were challenged
by Senator Lewis Schwellenbach.
D., WASH, who urged Democrats
not to return to the "defeatist
philosophy" of previous Republi-
can administrations.
