On Army Plane Bidding
Py the Associated Press.

Py the Associated Press.
Members of House Military Al
fairs Subcommittee said today the
group had rejected the administra-
tion's request for authority to dis
pense with competitive bidding for
new Army planes, but had agreed on
a compromise.
It will recommend that the
War Department be permitted to
award contracts to the three lowest
bidders. Under existing law, only
the lowest responsible bidder gets
the contract.
President Roosevelt and Army
officials recommended elimination
Of competitive bidding on the
ground it would concentrate much
of the plane-building program in a
few of the largest aircraft concerns
and might delay the expansion.

Urqed by Davies

Repeal of the arms embargo of

Senators Borah, Republican, of Ida

are members of the committee.
IF quickly we can repeal the en-
barge and 60 back to the historic
processes under which our foreign
relations were conducted for $50
years in accordance with interna-

effect in now preventing a world
war, in my opinion" Ambassador

Vouching for the competence and

Roosevelt that the emergency cor

In addition"
The report of the former R. F. G.
head. made to Mr.. Roosevelt in a
letter of resignation preparatory to
his taking over the new Loan Agency
post, was released yesterday at the
White House in conjunction with a
commendatory reply from the Pres
ident
Mr.. Roosevelt wrote Mr.. Jones that
this statement reminded him that in
1888. 1884, 1885 and 1886 a few
people in the executive branch of
the Government and many civilians
and newspapers were announcing
that the R. F. c. was broke and
that the Government would not
get back more than so cents on the
dollar
These people were in some cases
honest in their belief" the Presi-
dent added, but, in many cases,
were making these ghoulish state
mentS with the hope that their own
type of partisanship would thereby
be served.
In either case. their action did
little to encourage the confidence
they were so loudly talking about.
In either case, their gloomy pre-
dictions proved false
The President said the R. F.. c..
under Mr.. Jones guidance, had made
an amazing record of financial eff
flclency. At the same time, he
said, it had assisted many banks,
corporations and individuals to con-
tlnue solvent and to do their part
In giving employment and keeping
the wheels of industry turning.
Mr.. Jones said he wanted to en-
phasize that the R. F. C. organiza-
ton was as capable as that of any
private business. He added that
Emil Schram. his successor as chair
man, and the organizatio were
competent and lin every way worthy

Wagner Act Changes
Will Bring Turmoil
Senators Are Told
Labor Leader Says
N. l. R. B. Has Restored
Peace in Rhode Island

BY the Associated Press.
A New England labor leader testi-
fed today that proposed amend
ments to the National Labor Rela-
tions Act would result in industrial
strife and turmoil"
Lawrence Spitz, Woonsocket, r. l.,
speaking for the Rhode Island La
bor's Non-Partisan League and the
Independent Textile Union of Amer
lea, appeared before the Senate La
Dor Committee to oppose changes
in the law.
Weaken 1t by any Of the pro-
posed amendments and industrial
strife and turmoil will once again
become the order of the day Mr..
Spitz said He credited the Labor
Board with restoring peace in the
textile industry in Rhode Island.
The Independent Textile Union,
he said, was the largest truly inde-
pendent labor organization in New
England. and had received fair and
impartial treatment" from the La
bor Board. although it competed
with both the A. F. l.. and C. 1. o.
Before the Supreme Court found
the Labor Act constitutional, Mr..
Spitz said, discriminatory dis
charges of workers for joining un-
ions and refusals to bargain collec-
lively were commonplace"
Men were herded into company
unions and the employers were on
both sides Of the bargaining table, -
he added.
The Rhode Island labor spokes-
man said part of the difficulties in
textile labor relations in his State
resulted from the fact that the
largest mills in and around Woon-
socket are controlled by absentee
owners, the majority of whom reside
IN France"
Chairman Thomas asked if the
owners were citizens of this coun-
try.
