Colgate University students are tax

uratively speaking-to see what makes
'em tick.
They're studying how dictators are
made and unmade under DR.. William
Shankwiler. The course Is an ex-
pertinent in the university's school OF
social sciences.
DR.. Shankwiler said the class has
made every effort to understand each
system In the perspective of the local
historical circumstances" based on 4
study Of material furnished by the
Soviet, German and Italian en-
bassies.
"The class reaction to relationships
has been decidedly negative" he
added. "Of the big three, Stain,
Hitler and Mussolini, the class has
been most interested in Hitler but,
II required to live under a dictator,
would prefer to live under Mussolini.
THE students prejudices against
dictatorship as whole are very fixed.
They object to the claim Of the state,
or class. or nation to mould all opin-
ion about its unquestioned absolutes,
and to the interference with property
and thinking freedom.
They seem to feel that the great

Is to temper public control Of social

mission yesterday announced exemp-
ton Of the General Electric Co. and
two wholly owned subsidiaries, Elec-
trio Securities Corp, and G. E. EN-
ployes Securities Corp, from pro-
visions of the Public Utility Holding
Company Act.
The application for exemption was
made necessary because of the groups
ownership of 10 per cent or more of
the outstanding voting securities of
Texas Power Corp, and New England
Public Service Co.
1t was granted on a showing that
the companies were only incidentally
holding companies within the mean
ing OF the utility act, being primarily
interested and engaged in the equip
ment and investment businesses other
than that of a public utility company.
None OF them, the commission found,

WOMEN IN INDUSTRY

Mrs. Frank Morrison Charges

Charging that women receive from
81 to 81 a week less than men doing
identical work. Mrs. Frank Morrison
last night called on working women
in industry to organize to bring up
the wage standard of their sex.
Speaking over the Labor News Re-
view, on radio station WJSV, Mrs.
Morrison pointed to the rapid inA
crease Of women in industry, saying
they numbered 100000 in 1880, six
times the number employed so years
ago.
OF these wage earning women, only
about 125, 900 are part Of organized
labor, she said.
Wages should be established on
the basis Of occupation and ones

OF SEX"
IT woman Is to be content to work
for less wage than man, which she
will continue to do If she does not
band with the others Of her sex in
union and demand her just rights,
she not only will keep down her own
wage, but that Of mans, as we'll as

Because of the press Of witnesses,
Chairman Harrison was forced to
abandon his hope to complete testi-
mony of outside witnesses yesterday
and arranged to postpone the Treas
ury's showing until Tuesday. He also
announced deferrment until the hear
ings are finished of the decision the
Finance Committee must make on a
proposal to write in about 1912 ,000, 900
in processing taxes to finance the ex-
pected deflcit of the administration
farm control act.
Senator Pope. Democrat, OF Idaho,
a member Of the Senate Agriculture
Committee, appeared briefly in behalf
of this proposal yesterday, but Chair
man Harrison pointed out that such
a sweeping suggestion could not be
disposed of without hearings.
The question also arose as to whether
the plan would not have to receive
first consideration in the House Ways
and Means Committee. Senator Pope
has drafted amendments to the tax
bill imposing the processing taxes on
five basic commodities, wheat, cotton,
corn, rice and tobacco, and has said
he will offer them on the Senate
floor if the Finance Committee does
not include them. Approval by the
Senate would result in a long fight
in conference, as the House committee
has opposed the plan, and the result
would be the delay in tax revision
which congressional leaders have
hoped to avoid.
If the tax revision is to operate to
bring about revival in business, Sen.
ator Harrison believes that speed is a
pressing need and his view was sus-
tanned in much of yesterdays testi-
mony.

BY the Associated Press.
The Senate Agriculture Committee
yesterday approved q bill to hasten
payment Of $3.50, ,00O, 900 in subsidies
to growers of the 1887 cotton crop.
The measure, introduced by Chair

would provide immediate payment of
subsidies of 3 cents pound.
The requirement that cotton pro-
ducers show actual compliance with
the 1888 cotton production program
which would have delayed payments
until this summer, would be waived
by the Smith measure. Instead, cot
ton growers would receive the subsidy
payments as soon as they agreed to
comply with the 1888 program.

Drous Moral

Ghost writer's and press
agents used to function entirely
behind the scenes and it was
seldom they we're mentioned in
print. It was the custom to
naively assume that every Senar
tor and Congressman wrote his
own speeches, no matter how
busy he was; that he personally
did the research work necessary
to obtain the facts and figures
used in the speeches: and that
when a legislator got his name
in the paper much oftener than
other lawmakers of about equal
talents, it was just happen
stance.
Ghost writer's and press
agents have emerged from the
realm of the unmentionables to
the region of age recognized and
commonplace. Research men,
public relations directors, pub
licity experts, are some Of the
terms applied to them. They
are more numerous nowadays
than ever before, especially with
increased governmental activi-
ties.

Oberammergau is a vivid splash

THESE houses are very irregu-

way has ended but after a little

yourself back on the street
again. Bridges, here and there,
span the Ammer River; hens,
geese and ducks try to commit
suicide under the wheels of the
