dent at the University of Washing
ton, was on the witness stand.
Mr.. Forbes, incidentally, said he
had received some correspondence
from Pfaus after he joined the Ger
man-American bund in Seattle.
Mr.. Forbes had outlined to the
committee how he joined the bund
and had made an investigation OF
alleged un-American activities on
the West Coast because Of his in
terest in journalism. He said he
wrote series of is articles on the
result of his inquiry for a Seattle
newspaper.
Mr.. Forbes, the only witness who
testified yesterday, spent most of his
time describing persons he met in
connection with his investigation.
The bund post in Seattle which he
joined, he said. had only Is men,
oers. Two of these, he testified, were
Paul Stoll and Harry Lechner, who
worked in the Boeing airplane fac
tory.
Denies Talk Of Sabotage.
Mr.. Whitley wanted to know If
sabotage was ever discussed in the
bund meetings. His reply was:
Il can safely say there was no
talk of sabotage in the Seattle bund
unit"
Mr.. Forbes said that during his
connection with the bund he was
sent a quantity of German propa-
ganda to distribute among the stu
dents at the university, but that
his only activity was to plaster
some "anti-Semitic stickers' on
automobile windshields to keep in
good standing"
The witness also declared that
from his observations members of
the bund in Seattle, all of whom
were German-born American citi-
zens, gave their first loyalty to Ger
many at bund meetings.
The committee will resume public
hearings tomorrow at 10 am. The
witness, according to Chairman
Dies, will be DR.. Harry F. Ward,
head of the Union Theological
Seminary of New York, who also
is chairman of the American League
for Peace and Democracy and the
American Civil Liberties Union.

Wage.Hour Changes
Bring Difficulties,
u. 5. Chamber Says
Organization, Announces
1t Is Opposed to
Continuance of Law
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The United States Chamber Of
Commerce said yesterday the new,
wage-hour standards effective this
week would increase difficulties"
and hardships brought on by the
law" and create particular problems
for concerns which have attained .
high rate of industrial production.
On Tuesday, the work week under
the Wage-Hour Act will be reduced
from A to AZ hours and the mini
mum wage will be increased from Is
to 80 cents an hour. Although wage
hour officials have expressed the
opinion that industry could make
the change smoothly, the Chamber
of Commerce commented in its
weekly business review:
plants now working eight hours
a day and four hours on Saturday
are faced with two-hour Saturday,
usually not feasible, continuance
Of the 44-hour week with overtime
pay, or either a fiat fve-day week
or a staggered arrangement over q
six week"
Rising Costs Foreseen.
Asserting that rising production
costs are seen" in the changes, the
review added: THE national cham
ber Is opposed to continuance of the
law and will shortly make a survey
Of its effects to date in local com.
munities and in fields of business"
The law will complete its first
year on the Federal statute books
tomorrow without Supreme Court
test of its validity-a test which
wage-hour officials said they had
hoped for in the early stages of the
acts operation.
However, wage-hour executives
said they expected a challenging
law suit from the textile industry
as soon as the controversial 32ls
cents an hour wage order goes into
effect Tuesday for 5000 textile
workers.
Southern textile interests employ.
ing about 125,000 of the workers
strongly opposed the order, largely
because it made no allowances for
differential between Northern and
Southern textile manufacturers.
Slight Delay in Effective Date.
The 321a cent minimum was ap.
proved by textile industry COM
niittee. The law provides for ap-
pointment of such committees to
recommend higher minimum in q
particula rindustry than the gen.
eral minimum.
Wage-hour officials said yesterday
that, although a reduction in the
maximum work week is set by law
for october "a, it would not become
effective in many plants until sew.
eral days later.
Elmer F. Andrews, former admin.
istrator, has ruled that the new AZ.
hour maximum need not be put into
effect until the start of the regular
work week on or after October "a.
| Depending on when an industry
starts its week, the provision may
thus be made effective as late as
October 80.
However, 30-cents-an-hour mini
mum wage for workers in interstate
| commerce must be adopted at mid.
night October %, Mr.. Andrews ruled.

Own Intolerance Seen
Greatest Danger That
Can Come 10 America
Senator Chavez Makes
Observation Before
Phi Betu Gummu

Declaring that tolerance Is syn
onymous with Americanism, Sena-
tor Chavez, Democrat, of New Mex
leo last night called on members of
the Phi Beta Gamma Legal Frater-
nifty to dedicate themselves to true
Americanism" and to wipe out dis
sension among the people Of this
country
Speaking at banquet climaXing
three-day convention of the or
ganization at the Raleigh Hotel, the
New Mexican reminded his listeners
that the United States is COM
posed of many religions and many
races.
But they are all Americans, and
we must all be tolerant of each
others beliefs. That is the true test
of Americanism," he asserted.
He reminded the group that in
volvement of this country in war
would wipe out civil liberties here.
Remember that you now live in
country where freedom exists. It's
bad enough to 60 to war, but the
after effects of War-the loss of lib
erty and the substitution for it of
intolerance-are much worse" Sem
ator Chavez said.
Even now, he continued, mothers
in England, France, Germany and
elsewhere don't know whether their
sons may be impaled on barbed wire
on some battlefield or whether they
are blasted to bits by some shell.
You'll have to carry on when my
generation is gone" he declared,
"and it's up to you to help keep this
Nation free from war just as its
up to you to believe in the Constitu-
ton and the liberty and the freedom
that it guarantees to every Ameri-
can"
He said the greatest danger that
can come to American democracy
is that "of our own intolerance.
Senator Chavez's talk followed the
introduction of officers of the fra
ternity. John Paul Jones acted as
toastmaster. He announced that
next years convention will be held
In Minneapolis, MINI.

give to the poor and follow Christ. It is easy to agitate for the rights of the Negro; it is Christlike to call the Negro not "Comrade' but brother.
 Revolutionary
 Revolutionary? Yes! "We must be revolutionists with swords-swords not for our fellow-man but swords for our own hearts. It is not in- stitutions and governments which have failed, it is men. It is not money, banks, guns and systems which have failed, it is man. Men turn their swords against these things because they are afraid to turn them into their own hearts. But the heart of man must be opened. The kingdom of evil must be driven out and the kingdom of Christ established. There must be a bloody revolution in the heart of man, revolution which will destroy and then build anew.
 My dear friends we must always remember that although the Cath olic is most intolerant of Com munism, he must be most tolerant of the Communist. If we had the same education they have, if we had been fed the same lies and half truths about religion, we would probably hate the Church ten times more than they. They do not hate the Church; they hate only what thnu hotn hoorH told about fI1o Church. Perhaps we would burn churches too if we had been falsely trained to believe that these churches stood for the very evils that they rightly condemn. But Our Lord found excuse for them on Call vary. Can we do less than echo in our lives his prayer of forgiveness, Father, forgive them for they know not what they do."
 Today the world is filled with men who have lost their way, men whose sins have been psychoana- lized a thousand times but never once forgiven; men with bodies racked with pain and bitterness and never sWeetened by the Cross; men with hearts which have sought happiness here and there and never knew that they were seeking God. Mankind is in Widowhood, bereft of One who should have been his con- panion forever. There are wars and rumors of wars. Economics are a tangled mess. A false education is stealing away mans faith. Con- muniSm and a pagan state is rob- ping him of his soul. Everywhere is confusion, helplessness and despair.
 Hope External
 And yet all need not be hopeless. The world seemed hopeless before when it crucified its Saviour, and yet it rose to the heights of Chris tian life and civilization. Again God can lift individuals and nations from the darkness of hate to the light of love. No nation is beyond redemption. England seemed hope less to the Faith in the days of Queen Elizabeth when she murdered 138 secular priests, six Jesuits, one Benedictine and one Franciscan. It seemed hopeless in 1884 with four bishops and 100000 faithful. Yet to- day it has twenty-seven bishops and three million faithful. What is true of England in the past will be true of Russia in the future. Russia is wounded but not dead. The world may be wounded but it is not dead. A new organism may cover the earth-but the Church is not afraid of organism. The Church was born in paganism-and we saw it die. The first time we killed it was during persecution-and it is only in perse- cution that we shall kill it again.
