lynching bill, on the ground that 1t
violated the Constitution, seeking to
impose the rule of the Federal Gov
ernment in matters which the Con-
stitution left to the sole Jurisdiction
of the States. He knew well, at
the time. that such a position would
be harmful to his chances of win
ming delegates to the Republican
National Convention in Ohio and
Illinois, but he never hesitated to
announce his position.
The Idaho Senator was the leader
in the movement for disarmament
which eliminated in the Washing
ton Arms Conference, attended by
the great nations of the world in
1922. His was the first sugges-
ton that such conference be held.
It came at a time when the United
States had declined to become a
member of the League Of Nations
and to ratify the Versailles treaty.
1t was Borah's conception that in
ternational Observation-Disclosures
Of ornaments at flrst-would be
tar more effective measure for in
ternational peace than a league
which was designed to police the
world through the use of armed
force. Later the Borah idea was
taken up, and President Harding is
sued the call for the arms confer
ence, which was to give hope to the
world, a hope, however, that failed
OF fulfillment because of the jeal-
ousies and fears abroad.
Senator Borah's firm opposition
to the entry of the United States
into the League of Nations and into
the World Court, the fight he
waged constantly to keep America
from involvement abroad, will mark
forever his career as Senator. In
the Office of chairman of the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee, Borah
was in effect second Secretary of
State during the last Republican
administrations. His influence was
tremendous abroad. His appoint
ment to be Secretary of State when
the Hoover administration opened,
had it happened, would have been
hailed by many.

Gen. r. d. Glsssford. Phoenix, AriZ.,
and on occasion has made sociologi-
cal studies and served as trouble
shooter for the Department of Labor
out in the Imperial Valley and other
agricultural hot spots. On the whole,
he has been rather gloomy about
any happy issue out of our aff1ic-
tions." In st. Louis on May IL,
1898, he predicted that there would
be no presidential elections in 1910
that We would have a dictator
before then, that both the present
administration and business had
proven they can't save U.S."
The generals somewhat mortuary
outlook is perhaps understandable
in view of his tangle with the bonus
army. He won the acclaim of lib
erals by his disinclination to start
shooting, and he vehemently insisted
that the army was primarily dis
turbing social phenomenon rather
than police problem. Soon there
after he obeyed an understandable
impulse to "get away from it ALL

bing on the farm, but takes time out
for his painting. He's never really
happy unless he's painting. Through
his Army years-he was the young
est American brigadier general in
the World War-it was never quite
clear whether he was an artistic
fighter or fighting artist. His
social outlook, as revealed by the
committee hearing, seems to be on
similar dead-center. He is doing
nicely on his farm. He has built
handsome house on the site of the

HuII's Trade Treaties
Supported by White

EMPORIA, Kans, Jan. 20-Wil-
liam Allen White, Republican news
paper editor, is fundamentally in
disagreement" with Gov. Payne Rat
ner and Kansas Representatives and
Senators who opposed Secretary
Hull's reciprocal trade treaties.
These treaties surely strengthen
our national economy" Mr.. White
said in an editorial in his Emporia
Gazette. "They certainly bring in
more business and more money to
the country than they take out.
Unless we see our national econ
omy as whole and national pros
perity as unit, we never can re-
cover.
"One of the things that brought
about the depression was the Smoot-
Hawley bill. That tariff law
was an ofense against economic sta
bility not only in the United States
but all over the world.
"The Republican party is going to
make a sad mistake If 1t goes into
this campaign on an old-fashioned,
high tariff platform policy. The
Hull idea theoretically is right"

Limited Monopoly
To Nurse Along
1eIevision Urged
F. G. G. Told Industry
Would Need Much
Adventurous Capital

A limited form of monopoly to
protect the pioneer television broad
casters and much adventurous
capital" will be needed to put this
new form of the radio entertain
ment before the general public,
Adrian Murphy, executive director
of television for the Columbia Broad
casting System, told the Federal
Communications Commission yes
terday. The commission is conduct
ing hearings on the two reports of
its Television Committee which have
recommended a limited licensing
program for this branch of radio.
Mr.. Murphy told the commission
the cost of producing television pro-
grams would be so heavy that a
broadcaster could not do a public
service and remain in business
unless he was permitted to take all
of the possible income in his partic-
ular field.
Chairman James Lawrence Fly of
the commission wanted to know If
it would not be possible for two,
three or four different broadcasters
to use the same frequency and trans
mitting apparatus at stated periods
during the day. and thus spread
the cost of producing programs.
Mr.. Murphy said If it was pos
sible for four people to make money
off the same apparatus, then a
single broadcaster could make the
same amount if he could get the
same commercial support. He did
not think 1t be advantageous for
several broadcasters to use the same
apparatus and frequency.
Mr.. Murphy also told the commits
sion the average listener hours for
television would be considerably less
than for audio-broadcasting. He
said the average for the latter was
five hours a day while it was his
opinion that the visual broadcasting
would only be about two hours, and
this period would be from about 7:3O
to $50 in the evenings. He cited
this to show to the commission that
the possible commercial income for
television at this stage was extremely
limited.

John w. Hanes, recently resigned
Undersecretary of the Treasury.
expressed last night the earnest
belief that a reduction in personal
income and estate taxes would lay
the foundation for a real business
upsurge."
Mr.. Hanes a Yale graduate of IS
years ago, was one Of the speakers
at the celebration of the 50th ami
versary of the founding of the Yale
Alumni University Fund Association.
an organization that has collected
over $10,000,000 from Yale men.
Mr.. Hanes said in q prepared ad-
dress that there was no way to stop
the shrinkage in endowment fund
income that had been going on for
10 years, that high taxes made it
difficult for those upon whom a uni
versity depended to make contribu-
tions and then declared:
1T is my belief that the highest
rate of taxation upon the taxpayer
does not always produce the maxi
mum revenue. "'' I am convinced
that the Treasury Of the United
States will collect a larger total Of
dollars with a tax bill that takes into
broad consideration the effect Of the
dollars It will leave the taxpayer for
expansion and development. -
1T is my earnest belief that II we
would approach our tax problem
honestly. reducing the high rates
both upon personal incomes and
estates, business would be encour-
aged to 60 ahead at~a more rapid
rate. 1t is possible that a founda-
ton for a real business upsurge
would be laid. and falling interest
rates would be arrested"
