STUDY OF PACTS

(IN.S.) Every reciprocal trade
agreement, including the projected
pact with the United Kingdom
would have to be made public for
80 days before becoming effective,
under a bill Senator OMahoney,
3D. of Wyoming filed in the
Senate.
THE purpose of this 30-day
period is to let Congress and the
country know what the terms of
q proposed treaty are to be be-
fore we are tied hand and foot"
said OMahoney.
There is no doubt in my mind
that these reciprocal trade
agreements are treaties and that
they should be ratified by the
Senate before they become eff
fective," O'Mahoney added, land
I agree that the Senate should
be consulted before they be-

1t was during the World War
and Miss Allen, then a young
woman studying for her bar eX-

lures in the Cleveland schools
to exc out her income. She
wasn't renowned, but was inter.

German atrocities, only to an
nounce as she opened the next
lecture:
II gave you news of German
atrocities last week in good faith,

questionable authenticity and
regret having mentioned them"
SuperpatriotS got up in indig-
nation, charging that she was
"pro-German" and demanding
her dismissal.

QN.S.) Foes of the Wagner
Van Nuys anti-lynching bill in the
Senate today planned to offer a
batch of amendments designed to

Some of the amendments would
virtually destroy the bill; others
would trim out comparatively
minor features.

fundamentally unconstitutional,

that at least some modification
will be approved"

HARRISON LASHES OUT

against the measure. One of the

Opponents of the bill said they
were organized to take turns in

opportunity to do so.

FIGHT is LIKELY

The new measure, originally de,
signed to cure inequities and hard
ships in the undistributed profits
and capital gains and loss taxes,
was conceived as a means of aid
ing business and stimulating EN-,
ployment. The last-minute deci
sion of the subcommittee to in
clude penalty taxes aimed at
boarding" by 500 to 1000 corpora
tions, however, may result in a
stiff fight.
Republicans in Senate ano
House, aided by many Democrats
hope to overturn the present plan
and obtain complete repeal of the
profits levy.
The new tax measure, Dough
ton said, is designed to raise sub
Stantially the same amount o.
money as the present law. While
some taxpayers, especially many
smaller corporations, will gai1
under the new law, others viii
pay increased taxes.

On Ludlow Bill

I.N.S.D The text of Presi-

Speaker william B. Bank
head of the House, condemn
ing the Ludlow war refer
endum, follows:
I'm response to your re-
quest for an expression of my
views respecting the proposed
resolution calling for a refer
endum vote as a prerequisite
for a declaration of war, l
must frankly state that l con-
slider that the proposed
amendment would be imprac-
ticable in its application and
with our representative form
of government.
COUNTER TO POLICY
"Our Government is con-
Quoted by the people through
representatives of their own
choosing. 1t was with Singu-
lar unanimity that the found
ers of the republic agreed
upon such free and repre-
sentative form of government
as the only practical means
of government by the people.
"Such an amendment to
the Constitution as that pro-
posed would cripple any
President in his conduct of
our foreign affairs, and 1
would encourage other ma
tions to believe that they
could violate American rights
with impunity.
CONVINCED OF HARM

sponsors of this proposal
sincerely believe that it would
be helpful in keeping the
United States out of war. l
am convinced that it would
have the opposite effect.

: Summoned to the Executive
Mansion as the President worked
on a special message to Congress
were Secretary of State Hull,
Undersecretary Sumner WelleS
and Admiral William D. Leahy.
MESSAGE DUE THIS WEEK
The Presidents message, which
will commit the United States to
a naval building program second
only to Great Britain's in its pro-
portions. will be sent to Congress
some time this week, it is ex-
pected.
Congress will be asked to pro-
vide between $100,000,000 and
$2OO,O00,00 of supplemental funds
in addition to 1891, 100000 which
is provided for the Army and Navy
in the regular budget for the next
fiscal year, it was predicted.
The supplemental funds would
provide for immediate construc
ton of one new battleShip, two
aircraft carriers, a number o1
superfast light cruisers and fast
auxiliary ships to supply the fleet
1S OTHER FIGHTING CRAFT
The new warShips would be in
addition to 18 fighting vessels pro
vided for in the regular budget
These include two new 35,000tor
hattleships mounting nine 16-inch
guns each and costing approx
mately $6O,O0O,0OO; two light
cruisers, eight destroyers and six
submarines. The supplemental
program would bring to total Of
five the new battleships under
construction. Some 10 other war
ships in categories from aircraft
carriers to submarines are now
being built in Navy Yards anc
private yards.
The building program will con
Centrate on ships which can range
far from our shores. While Euro
pean powers are building large
! numbers of submarines and des
troyers these vessels, naval experts
pointed out, are not so important
in long range fighting. What
America needs, according to naval
, experts, are battleships, aircraft
. carriers and light and heavy
cruisers.
SECURITY THREATENED
Foundation for the supplemental,
naval building program was laic
by the President in his opening
message when he reminded Con
gress that conditions in troubled
world threatens Americas secur
ity. The United States must bt
prepared to defend itself against
any agressor or be willing to take
a secondary place in world affair!
with the ever present danger o,
provocative insults by war-like ma
tions, the President warned.
Although the new rearmament
program will not be launched with
the rapidity of Great Britain''
$500, 100000 program, it is in
tended to assure the United State!
