n. |. R. B. Controversy
Flares Anew in House
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Controversy over the National La
Dor Boards administration of the
Wagner Act flared anew in the
House today when Republicans
sought to eliminate the boards So
039 900 appropriation for the next
fiscal year.
Representative Taber of New
York, senior minority member of
the House Appropriations Commit
tee, led the fight to strike out
the item with a declaration that
the funds should be withheld until
the labor relations law can be
amended so both industry and labor
would be assured a square deal"
The New Yorker said the situa-
ton was comparable to that of the
Federal Communications Commis-
sion for which the committee re-
fused to recommend further funds
until the reorganization requested
by President Roosevelt could be ac-
complished.
Representative Fitzpatrick, Demo-
crat, of New York, also member
of the Appropriations Committee. de-
clared the board should be given
the money to carry out the job in
tended for it by Congress.
For Gods sake, don't hamstring
the board in this fashion," Fitz-
patrick shouted.

Charges Unfounded,
Miss Perkins Tells
House Committee
Prepared Statement
Carried to impeachment
Resolution Hearing
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Secretary of Labor Perkins ap-
peared before the House Judiciary
Committee today to declare that
charges against her in an impeach-
ment resolution were unfounded.
An aide, who accompanied her to
the committees hearing, said that
was the substance of a prepared
statement she would read behind
the committees closed doors.
II have full confidence in the COM
mittee regarding disposition of these
charges and matters affecting the
Government of the United States,
the Secretary said as she entered
the hearing room.
Her aide said the statement would
explain the Labor Departments de-
portation procedure which led Rep
resentative Thomas, Republican, of
New Jersey to offer the impeach-
ulCllt lCoOlutlOli 4lOW OC1olC eAAC
Judiciary Committee.
With the Secretary was Gerard
D. Reilly, Labor Department solici-
tor, who also is named in the
impeachment resolution.
A third Labor Department official,
James L. Houghteling, immigration
commissioner, also was charged by
Representative Thomas with COM
plicity in delaying deportation pro-
ceedings against Harry Bridges,
G. I. o. West Coast maritime leader.
The Labor Department has con-
tended it was awaiting a Supreme
Court decision in another case in
volving the question of whether
membership in the Communist party
is adequate grounds for deportation
before proceeding against Bridges.
Representative Thomas charged
that Bridges was an alien Com
munist and deportable under a law
enacted in 1913.
Representative Thomas also con-
tended the two cases were dissimilar
and that one could not be used as
an excuse for delaying the other.

Hearings Scheduled
Next Week on D. T.,
Reorganization
Shofer Says Plan Does
Not Assure Posts
For Residents
BY JAMES E. CHINN.

The Griffenhagen program for
streamlining the municipal govern
ment headed for series of public
hearings today after the full House
District Committee turned 1t over
to a special subcommittee for con-
sideration.
The subcommittee, headed by Rep
resentative Kennedy. Democrat. of
Maryland. plans to start hearings
early next week.
Chairman Randolph told the COM
mittee 1000 copies of the voluminous
report would be printed and made
available to the public in advance
of the hearing
The first criticism of the Grit
fenhagen plan from members of the
District Committee came from Rep
resentative Shafer, Republican of
Michigan, who charged that under
the proposed new setup there is no
assurance that District resident
would become highly paid execu-
tive administrator or that directors
of the proposed new II departments
would have to be District residents.
No Need for Outsiders Seen.
Il believe residents of the District
should be assured these jobs" he
declared. There is no need of run
ming all over the country to find
men and women to help run the
District Government. Surely here in
Washington there are capable and
qualified persons who are available
for these jobs"
President Roosevelt has not vet
read the report. he indicated at his
press conference late yesterday. but
plans to 60 over it soon. The Chief
Executive received copy of the plan
yesterday.
Basing his opinion on newspaper
reports, the President said the plan
appears to constitute an earnest ef-
fort to improve the municipal struc-
ture here.
Several House committee members,
in addition to Representative Shafer,
it is said, are prepared to voice their
opposition against the proposed new
setup in general because of the abb
sence of any plan for a District resi-
dent to hold any of the important
posts 1t creates.
Other Criticism Expected.
Criticism also is expected to be
leveled at the proposal to abolish
the Board of Education, the Alley
Dwelling Authority, and the Alco-
holic Beverage Control Board.

Secret Report
On Ga||inger
Called For
District Committee
Members Demand
Investigation

The House District Committee at
a meeting today called on the United
States Public Health Service for
confidential report based on a sur
vey it made of District hospitals
after several members vigorously
condemned conditions at Gallinger
Municipal Hospital.
Representative Bolles, Republican
of Wisconsin, who revealed he had
recently made an inspection at Gal
linger, declared:
IF a city of 10000 population
had a hospital like Gallinger, the
people would go out and burn it
down."
Representative Schultz. Democrat
of Indiana, said he had been re-
liably informed that seven out OF
the last graduating class of II
nurses had contracted tuberculosis
Some one is to blame" he
shouted. THE committee ought to
investigate conditions at that hos
pital."
Funds Refused, Hazen Says.
Chairman Randolph explained he
had already called on Supt. Edgar
A. Bocock for a report on conditions
at the hospital in view Of reports he
had received that the food served
patients was below a hospital stand
ard and that nurses and attendants
were overworked.
Commissioner Melvin c. Hazen
admitted to the committee that con-
ditions at the hospital are mot
good" but said the Budget Bureau
had refused to provide additional
funds for an increase in personnel
He admitted, too, that the nurses
are required to work overtime be-
cause the hospital staff is made
quate.
IT believe" he added, that DR.
Bocock is a competent man"
Representative Ford, Republican,
of California suggested that the en-
tire committee visit the hospital as
we'll as other District institutions.
THE danger of that is the insti-
tutions will get ready for YOU" re-
marked Representative Nichols.
Democrat, of Oklahoma Mr.. Bolles
is taking the ideal route The COM
mittee members should go as indi-
viduals without any fanfare"
Dirksen Urges Fund Plea.
Representative Dirksen, Republi-
can. of Illinois, proposed that after
a thorough investigation of condi-
tions at Gallinger the committee
members appear before the House
Subcommittee on District Appropri-
ations and make an appeal for in
creased funds for the institution.
If you do not get satisfaction, he
declared, you can always offer an
amendment to the District appropri-
alton bill on the floor of the House
to increase the funds for Gallinger.
Every member of the committee
attended the meeting. 1t was the
first time in five years that there had
been a full attendance, and in ad-
dition to the Gallinger Hospital sit
uation, the members discussed a
series of municipal problems ranging
from traffic to the need of drastic
loan shark" law.
Corporation Counsel Elwood H.
Seal, who described the loan shark
situation in Washington as very
bad" was instructed to prepare legis-
lation with teeth in it."

Am|ie Tells Hearinq
He May Have Been
Called 'Comrade'
Cont Recall if Term
Wos Used in Talk at
Peace Congress

Thomas r. Amlie today told a
Senate subcommittee inquiring into
his qualifications to be a member OF
the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion that he had addressed the Con-
gress Against War and Fascism ir
Chicago in 1884 and may have beer
introduced there as "Comrade Am
lie" but he denied he was ever 8
member of either the Communist OF
Socialist parties.
A witness before the Senate Inter-
state Commerce Subcommittee had
called the Congress a Communist
organized and directed organization
Other witnesses have said Mr. Amlie
himself was radical.
The I. C. c. nominee, a former
Progressive Representative from
Wisconsin, told the committee he
had allowed his name to be used by
an organization called the Friends
of the Soviet Union" in advocating
recognition of Russia.
"At that time, Japan was on the
March and I felt Russia would be
our ally in the Pacific" Mr.. Amlie
said in support of this view.
Il was motivated by purely patri-
otic reasons" he said.
Says Term is Used Freely.
Asked if he was introduced at
Chicago as "Comrade Amlie," the
witness said:
II don't remember. That's a term
used rather freely and loosely. I've
spoken to many groups where I have
been called 'comrade,' including
lodge groups.
But want to say I never was a
member of either the Communist
or Socialist parties"
Earlier, Mr.. Amlie had described
his industrial expansion bill, which
has been attacked as leading to So
cialization of industry, as an attempt
Ito get sound American results
within the framework of our Ameri-
can democratic system and Constitu-
ton on sound democratic principles.
Mr.. Amlie sponsored the bill In
1887, while still a member of the
House. The bill would have required
industry to speed up output to a
maximum, penaliZing those concerns
which did not cO-oDerate.
Humorous Observation.
Mr.. Amlie prefaced his statement
to the committee with the humorous
observation that he had always
hoped to make good in some big
way" and that after listening to the
testimony of his foes, he felt Il have
made good in a big way-in the field
of incompetency."
He told the committee the NOM
ination of Louis D. Brandeis to the
Supreme Court was the only presi-
dental appointment in 80 years that
has met equal opposition.
Mr.. Amlie told the committee that
If the principles of his industrial
expansion bill had been put into
effect "and there had been full pro-
duction and use of production and
use OF the products, business mems
profits would have greatly increased,
jobs would have greatly increased
and we would all have gotten back
to prosperity"
1T is essential to recognize what
has been happening in this coun-
try" he said. In 1929, in quite a
few lines of industry, there was a
great deal of production for specu-
lative holding, rather than for i'm
mediate sale. There was also much
financial manipulation with actual
production Of goods. What was the
