Committee. In fact. he favored the
appointment of Senator Bridges to
represent the Republicans, particu-
larly since the latter was a leader in
the demand for an investigation of
the T. v. A. and has made many
charges against it,
If Senator McNary is chosen for
a place on the Investigating Commit
tee, presumably Senator Barkley, the
majority leader, also would be placed
on the committee. But Senator
Barkley has said repeatedly he did not
wish to serve and that he thought no
member OF the Senate who felt strong
ly about the T. v. A. should be placed
on the committee. Besides, Senator
Barkley does not want to tie himself
up indefinitely with service on such
a committee when he is facing a hard
campaign for denomination against
Gov. Chandler OF Kentucky.

Critics of the T. ". A. said yes

leaders for an impartial T. v. A.

move and would sound we'll" to many

that to appoint a committee without

returns if he has not done so en- route.
The administration has shown itself
vitally interested in the personnel of
this committee, which will be ap-
pointed by Vice President Garner and

Representative May of Kentucky and
others who have attacked the T. v. A.
The Vice President has remained
silent regarding the appointment of
the five Senate members of this in

head has confined himself to saying he
believed no member of the House hold
ing strong views either for or against
the T. v. A. should be placed on the
committee.
The President may talk with both
the Vice President and with the
Speaker, or at least communicate with
them, before appointment Of the COM
mittee is announced.
May Name McNary.
In informed quarters, it was said
yesterday that Vice President Garner
wished to appoint Senator McNary
of Oregon, minority leader, as the
Republican member of the Investigat-
ing Committee, and that probably
only one Republican from the Senate
would be selected, since the G. o. P.

RELIEF DEBT FUND
PUTAT T$14O,952,766
Sum Would Be Available for
Student Exchange Under
Hoover Plan.
By the Associated Press.


A fund of s14O.952.766 would be
provided for exchange of students be-
tween the United States and Europe
If proposal advanced by former
President Hoover we're adopted, some
officials said yesterday
In speech Thursday night at New
York, Mr.. Hoover proposed that coun-
tries which owe this Government re-
lief debts be permitted to erase them
from Uncle Sans books by depositing
In their own banks an equivalent
amount Of money to finance whole
sale exchange of students and pro-
fessors between themselves and the
United States.
Relief debtors are distinct from war
debtors. They are countries to which
this Nation extended aid and sold
food and other supplies on credit after
the World War
Officials said Mr.. Hoovers proposal
would obviate the objection some such
debtors have made to paying their
debts: Namely. the difficulty of get
ting dollars with which to pay us.
Officials said 10 countries would be
Embellishments (now Turkey)
Austria (now Germany, Czechoslo-
vakia. Esthonia, Finland, Hungary,
Latvia, Lithuania, Poland and Russia
The largest relief debtor is Poland,
which received credits of nearly s76,-
100000
The second largest is Austria, whose
credit was s24,055.7OS. Since Austria
Is now part OF Germany, Germany
would be expected to assume this OBJ
legation and presumably would come
within the scope of Mr.. Hoovers pro-
posal.
The only relief debtor which has
consistently paid is Finland, which
received credit of S8,28l. .926.

Barton Calls
| Dictator Letter
Bad advertising

Representative Bruce Barton, Re-
publican, of New York, who achieved
top rank as an advertising man before
coming to Washington, told the House
yesterday that President Roosevelt, in
denying he aspired to be a dictator,
violated one of the canons of the ad-
vertising art
"One of the first lessons I learned
in advertising" Mr.. Barton said, was
taught me by the head of a great
concern manufacturing radiators He
said to me, Never advertise thai our
radiators don't leak I do not want
the word leak" or the idea of leaking
to be associated in the public mind
with our product in any way
Night before last a certain gent.e-
man got up in the middle of the night
to associate his name with the words
dictator and dictatorship thereby
putting those words in the minds of
l30,000,000 people. many of whom may
never have thought of them before.
Il do not know much about political
strategy, but 1 do know that his ma
tional advertisement of the idea of
dictatorship, like his use of the word
purchase and his use of the word
'feudalism, was bad advertising prac-
tice."

The union proposed a board of ar

declined to serve on the committee.
The problem of the administration
is to obtain an investigating commit
tee which is satisfactory to it and at
the same time to avoid being charged
with trying to "whitewash" the T. v.

attitude Of the now ousted chairman

VIENNA, April 2-Nazis in a huge

camp-a symbol of what they called

German plebiscite campaign, spoke of

AS he spoke. sparks, smoke and
flames billoWed hundreds of feet into
the sky. Burning of a part of the
WallerSdorf Camp-where thousands
OF Nazis had been incarcerated before
the fall of Chancellor Kurt Schusch-
nlg9-Was reminiscent of the spectac-
ular 1888 ReicEstag fire or the Naz
book burning in Berlin.
Stolid peasants, some of them
women with babies in arms, attended
the demonstration. Several hundred
Of the 5000 who at one time or an
other were imprisoned in the camp
were honored guests.
The display began at $50 pm,
when 10 men who had served the
longest time in Wallersdorf for illegal
Nazi activities, ignited a gasoline
soaked structure-one of the 152 build
lngs that once were famous NUM-
tons plant and were later deserted
until the Austrian government started
using them as prisons for agitators.
Perspiring profusely in the terrific
neat, Buerckel declared in a brief,
emphatic speech:
we stand in historic spot which
characterized the message of one group
of usurpers who, through terroristic
means, held people in subjection and
who wanted to prevent Anschluss
(unlon of Austria and Germany.
But we attempt no act of revenge
against those who merited the death
sentence many times over. but whom
Der Fuehrer graciously has granted
the permission to live"

the whole area cleaned in the freight.
The roar of the fire drowned out
Buerckel's words. When the flames
died down the crowd burst into
Deutschland Uber Alles," and the
Nazi Horst Vessel song.
In place of the ruined building will
soon arise a monument to the unsuc-
cessful Nazi attempt to seize power in
Austria in 1884.
For five years the word "Wallers-
dorf' had been a threat to Nazis in
Austria. Many now famous party
members once were inmates of the
prison. Now such imprisonment is
badge of honor-the Nazi group and
high officers like to announce as
meritorious the aggregate number of
years they spent there.
