Herald Tribune Hits
Roosevelt Comment
On lis Editorial

Bv the Associated Press.

Bv the Associated Press
NEW YORK. Nov. 5.-The New
York Herald Tribune, replying today
to criticism by President Roosevelt
of an editorial in the newspaper
asserted on It's editorial page that
the Executive mot only had failed
to understand the point" made but
also had seen fit to discuss it I'm
temperately."
Todays editorial was titled: so
What, Considering the Source
The President in a press confer
ence at Hyde Park yesterday critic
lzed as deliberate Misrepresentation
an editorial so What?" Dealing
with his reply to a query last week
relating to Republican State COM
mittee poll of 5000 voters in Con-
necticut.
The poll showed IS per cent of
the 5000 persons answered no" as
to whether they believed they were
better of than two years ago. The
President said his comment was so
what. considering the source" He
said the editorial omitted mention
OF the organization and his words
considering the source
In its reply, the newspaper said
In part:
The President was INDIGNANT
because we omitted the phrase
considering the source To him
the source was apparently more
important than the question. and
II we understand him correctly.
the fact that the source was
Republican made the question un-
worthy OF his serious attention.
I'm our view the source of the
question was utterly irrelevant
What counted was the truth of
the reply and the Presidents Oh.
vious desire to pass it by without
comment. Certainly the . the
source of the poll in no way
detracts from the pertinence of
our editorial
1T is significant that the Presi-
dent made no attempt to refute
or to answer in any way the points
which were made. ="

Formal motion for new trial was
filed but viii not be ruled on for sew
eral weeks. Probably the case will
be taken to the Supreme court.
The defendants we're accused Of
entering into a secret agreement to
purchase quantities of oil from indie
pendent oil producers at artiicially
high prices. These prices were then
quoted as the market price to job
bers, who had signed contracts with
the defendants to purchase the fuel
at the spot Cor daily market price.
The defense denied having artifi-
cially influenced the market and
pleaded unsuccessfully that the
companies merely bought distress
gasoline to save the independent
refiners from failure and did SO in
accordance with a policy approved
by President Roosevelt and Interior
Secretary Harold L. Ickes.

munist and his deportation has been

Mayor Carson said the shipping
and fruit industries Of the West
Coast had suffered not only because
of maritime strikes but also be-
cause of tie-ups caused by the long
shoremen's unions. which are con-
trolled by Bridges.
The fruit industry is endangered

Stain Checks The PURGE

MOT single bit Of legislative
L work was accomplished by the
first session Of the new parliament
in Soviet Rsssia But there was a
lot of speech making, and external
enemies, especially Japan, were de-
nounced and defied.
Dictator Josef Stain, through the
central committee, ordered an end
to the mass expulsion of Communist
party members, which has usually
been followed by death, banishment
or loss of jobs.
Pravda, the Communist party
newspaper, indicated satisfaction
with the results of the purge, but
assailed rotten leaders" who
played into the enemy's hands. "Un-
der the mask of false vigilance
agents of Fascism sought to break
up and oust from the ranks our
bolshevist personnel" Pravda said.

Business at White House

EIFTY members Of the business
advisory council Of the Depart
nent Of Commerce. all of them
leaders of the nations business and
industry, went to the White House
for long conference with the
President, and told him what they
believed to be responsible for the
current recession" Then they
promised to cooperate with him in
combating the slump on condition
that he made clear the course he
intends to follow.
The business men specified that
necessities to aid in the struggle
were limitation to wage-hour legis-
lation, a truce with public utilities,
no general purge or holding COM
panies and no further tinkering with
the currency.
To these suggestions Mr.. Roose-
velt gave his approval. Others we're
heard by him without comment.
W. Averill, the councils chair
man, issued statement which en-
braced the views of his colleagues
and which was read to Mr.. Roose-
welt.
The statement said re-employ-
ment in private industry is the criti-
cal problem now before the country.
I'VE wish to record with you our
faith in the efficacy of the prin-
ciples of democracy, and yet our
grave concern over the possible far
reaching effects of our present sit
uation," the statement concluded.
Tolerance and understanding must
be used by all sections and interests
in the country"
At the conclusion of the confer
ence the President announced that
he will seek the formulation of a
definite policy, designed to end the
depression and create a framework
for steady functioning of nations
economic life through the appoint
ment Of group representative of
all the interests within the country.
The group would consist of as
many as twenty-five or as few as
five or six persons, who would be
charged with the task of sitting over
all proposals to aid business and un-
snarling all conflicts existing among
the various interests with view
toward perfecting an administrative
and legislative policy for business.

The speed with which Bayer tab

ing sore throat is utterly amazing
+. and the treatment is simple
and pleasant. This is all you do.
Crush and dissolve three genuine
Bayer Aspirin tablets in one-third
glass of water. Then gargle with
this mixture twice, holding your
head well back.
This medicinal gargle will act
almost like a local anesthetic on
the sore, irritated membrane of
your throat. Pain eases promptly:
rawness is relieved.
You will say it is remarkable.
And the few cents it costs effects
a abig saving over expensive throat
