Young Tells Probers He Is

Commission.
Nv the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
Robert R. Young New York railway
magnate, told Senate investigators
TO-DAY it was ridiculous to suggest
that he hoped to influence them by
contributing Sic, 900 to the Democratic
campaign fund.
He testified before the Senate Rail-
road Finance Committee that he was
'just as indignant as you are" to learn
that half of his donation had been
taken as commission by the solicitors
who sold him $50 Democratic Ma
tional Convention books
Il would much rather have given
$500 directly to the Democratic Ma
tional Committee" he declared heat
edly.
My understanding was that the
books cost only about $40, and that
the rest of the $4,000 would go to
the party
While he testified, Senator Vanden-
berg, Republican, of Michigan, made
public what he said was letter from
llSdSlSl COllll dSUOl W tllC
Democratic National Committee II
demanded return of a $3.50 contribu-
ton the writer asserted was made 'un-
der veiled threats"
The contractor, D. S. Warfel, wrote
he contributed the sum because u
really feared some reprisals might be
made if did not 60 along"
He said he was doing some work for
the Public Works Administration, and
was told by solicitor that it would
be to my best interests to go along
because everything he did was reported
to Mr.. Farley's Office and was passed
on by the big boys"
The letter was addressed to Oliver A.
Quayle, jr., acting treasurer OF the
National Committee.
Chairman Wheeler interrupted the
Senate's rail hearing for the third sue
cessive day to question Young about
his campaign contribution. The COM
mittee is engaged in an inquiry into
the youthful financier's plans for re-
organizing the huge Van Sweringen
railway system.
The Senator assured Young that
this is not the only instance" Of So
licitors taking 'kickback" from do
nations intended for the Democratic
party.
"They went to banks, breweries and
lots of other companies" he asserted.
Wheeler then introduced a letter
from New York attorney, Watson
Washburn, who said he had notified
that one of the solicitors who ap-
preached Young was identified as N.
M Lichtblau
"On behalf of an aged and indignant
client, Mrs. Eva j. Hurst" the letter
said, eve have been searching unsuc-
cessfully for two years to find one Nat
Lichtblau, who it appears was one Of
a gang of high-pressure statesmen who
secured by Misrepresentation our
clients last $4,000 worth of securities.
Our client has started suit, but has
hitherto been unable to serve Nat
Lichtblau''
Washburn added that he would
greatly appreciate" any information
about Lichtblau's whereabouts and
antecedentx.

SIGN TRADE PACT
Soviet Given Most Favored.
Nation CIause-To BuV
S4O,OOO.OOO in Goods.
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
President Roosevelt proclaimed to-
day a new commercial agreement
with Soviet Russia by which that
country agrees to purchase at least
$40 1000. 900 in American products dur
ing the next year.
This is an increase Of $4,000, 900
over the amount of goods the Soviet
Government obligated itself to buy in
this country by somewhat similar
agreement which expired on July H.
In return, the United States granted
unconditional most favored nation
commercial treatment to Russia for
the first time.
This means it will give that nation
the benefit not only of all tariff con-
cessions, but of all other commercial
privileges and advantages it accords
to other countries.
The State Department said the new
compact became effective on August
4 with an exchange of notes at Mos
cow between Ambassador Joseph E.
Davies and Maxim Litvinoff, Soviet
commissar for foreign affairs.
Exempts Soviet Coke, Coal.
1t described the agreement as "evi-
dence of the intention of the Soviet
Government with respect to trade
with the United States to continue
to pursue policies and take actions in
harmony with the purpose of the
(American) trade agreement act"
Under this law, which empowers
the President to lower tariffs as much
as so per cent on certain products of
foreign countries which do not dis
criminate against American commerce,
reciprocal trade agreements have been
signed with l6 foreign nations.
The special accord with Soviet Rus
sia is not reciprocal agreement in
the technical sense, but has broadly
the same application.
