Chairman Magnuson An- nounces He Will Call
 Commission Shortly

WASHINGTON, Aug. IT. - Con- gressman Warren c. Magnuson, who has been named to the Inter national Highway Commission, said he will take immediate steps to cail the Commission members together, probably the call setting Washing ton as the meeting place for the first conference.
 "The naming of the International Highway Commission means that We can now go ahead,n said Represefl- tative Magnuson. everything here- tofor has been propaganda but now we can discuss the project with some authority. I am confident we are on the way"
 Congressman Magnuson said he and James w. Carey, and probably Donald Macdonald. both visiting here, will get together today or to- morrow for informal talks.
 Congressman Magnuson estimates the probable cost of the road will be approximately $l5,000,000 He said besides the Department of the In- terior, the highway is actively being backed by the War and Navy De- partments which regard 1t an essen- tial link in the defense of a huge territory.

WAS INGTON, Aug. IT, Secretary of State C0rdell Hull in a broadcast last night ap- pealed to the world to turn the tide of lawIessness" through economic and moral recOnstruc- ton. The State Department head warned all governments to guard against certain danger ous developments which imperil them"
 He made seven proposals which he said were the only ones capable of placing the world firmly on the only road to enduring peace and security. These embraced economic re- construction, adherence to in ternatiOnal law, observance of treaties and their orderly modi- fication when necessary, absten- ton of the use of force, no 
 interference in the internal af- fairs of other nations, peace full settlement of differences, disarmament and cultural col Liberation.
 The Secretary's appeal afOus- ed enthusiasm among British and French officials who are worried over recurring war threats but dispatches from Rome, on the other hand, told of mounting Fascist displeasure with the speech which was not distributed by Italian papers but by the Stefani News Agency. The Fascists saw in the speech the cOunselling for a swing from force to arms reduction and economic reconstruction as the basis for world stability as an attack upon "have-not nations" such as Germany and Italy.

 City of Cleveland

SUPREME COURT FACES PROBLEM
 NEXT SESSION
Reversal of Most Important Decisions Said to Be
 Indicated
By PRESTON GROVER

WASHINGTON, Aug. 17.-There is just a possibility that when the Supreme Court reopens next fall Justice Black may be leading his colleagues into reversal of one of it's most important decisions of the session just ended.
 It has to do with radio tubes, talking pictures, patent pools and monopoly. Now don't get frightened. Court cases are fun if you escape being led down dark alley by deceptive whereas or a sly certiorari.
 On one of the last decision days before the court recessed for the summer it decided a case that loomed big on the financial pages but didn't show up often on front pages.
 Here's the lay of the land:
 In the years from 1912 to 1916, Western Electric, a subsidiary of the American Telephone and Tele- graph Company, bought several basic radio tube patents. The tubes weren't a striking success at first but the idea was right and experi- ments ultimately brought them around. Radio developed, along with loud speaker systems and talking pictures, and Western Elec- tric truly had something
 Patent laws have been enacted to protect such developments. If company wants to keep it's pat ents all to itself, it can. If it wants to permit their use under strict lease, it can, but if it sells them outright across the counter-well, there is where the Supreme Court comes in.
