OF Harry L. Hopkins to the cabinet,
the Wagner Act and the administra-
tion's national defense program to-
day were assailed by former Rep
resentative Bertrand H. Smell, Re-
publican, Of New York, retired
minority leader Of the House.
In a speech before the Women's
National Republican Clubs School
Of Politics, Mr.. Smell said:
Looking back upon "a years of
continuous service in Congress, I
can truthfully say that never have
seen national affairs in a more
muddled and dangerous posture
than at the opening Of the present
Congress.
Federal spending and budget
policies appear to be utterly out of

Dr.. Aranaa on Radio

BY the Associated Press.
DR.. Maurice Sheehy of Catholic
University interviewed Brazil's for
eign minister, DR.. Oswaldo Aranha,
In Rio de Janeiro yesterday on an
international broadcast.
DR.. Aranha said the definite
contribution of the Lima Confer
ence to the destiny of the Americas"
was that "the continental tradition
of solidarity became a living doc
trine and an organic reality" through
Improvement Of the system of pan
American consultations in times of
threats to peace, devised at the 1896
Buenos Aires Conference.
DR.. Sheehy, who Is making an
18,OO0-mile tour Of South America,
asked:
ITO what do you attribute the
good feeling between the United
States and Brazil?"
1T is based" Mr.. Aranha replied
"on the confidence that we. the
Brazilians, have on the attachment
OF the North American people to its
national attitude toward life and
its system Of values and its tend
ency to cooperate without selfish
ness for the betterment of civilizat ton
and consolidation of peace. ="

that Mr.. Lucas and Mr. Mcneil were

At the time the electromagnetic
