Secretary of State Hull's state
ment en- passage of the Trade Agree
ments Act follows:
1.-THE passage through Congress Of
the act continuing the trade agree
ments program In force for the next
three years will afford profound sat-
isfaction to all those who have been
observing and appraising the opera
ton of the program from the stand
point of our best national interest.
They know that the three high OBJ
jectives of the trade agreements
policy and Of the principles which
underlie it are:
81. To promote the fullest prac-
ticable development of both our de-
mestic and foreign markets, thereby
achieving increased production and
employment; co to help in creating
a solid foundation for any stable
peace structure to follow the war,
and 90 to safeguard free enterprise
in this country against ever-expand-
ing regimentation which would be
the inescapable result Of extreme
foreign trade controls of the kind
that would be rendered necessary

on products they export to this
country.
The State Department also plans
completion of negotiations for new
trade agreement with Chile, a re-
vision of the existing agreement
with Belgium and sweeping revision
of several existing commercial
treaties, which are distinct from the
reciprocal tariff-adjusting agree
ments There was no indication,
however, of revival of negotiations
with Argentina and Uruguay, which
were broken off recently.
Postwar Program Discussed.
Another effect of extension of the
Trade Act is to give new impetus to
Secretary Hull's efforts to obtain
commitments from practically all
nations that they will adopt liberal
commercial policies when the war is
over. The broad outlines of a post
war liberal trade and disarmament
program already are being discussed
with several neutral countries.
The main drive of Senate oppo-
nents to the Hull trade program was
directed toward modification of the
act, the last major effect coming
late yesterday on the motion by
Senator Walsh, Democrat, of Massa-
chusetts to limit the extension to
one year. The 46-to-34 vote was q
wider margin of victory than ad-
ministration supporters had mus
tered against proposals to require
ratification of agreements by the
Senate or by both branches of Con-
gress.
Senator Walsh voted for the three
year extension on final passage, ex-
planning that he was not willing to
see the whole program scuttled, be-
cause its general objective was good.
In urging his one-year limit earlier,
he took the position that the Demo-
Gratis should make an effort between
now and the next session of Con-
gress to try to meet the objections
of those Democrats who sought to
modify the program.
Reply to Arguments.
Chairman Harrison of the Finance
Committee, Majority Leader Bark
lev and Senator Brown, Democrat,
of Michigan replied to Senator
Walsh's arguments and urged the
Senate not to restrict the authority
to one year.
Some agreements take nearly a
year to negotiate, they argued, and
foreign governments would not be
disposed to enter into negotiations
if they thought the United States
was going to terminate the policy
at the end of one year.
Under the original act OF 1884
% agreements are now in force.
On final passage Al Democrats
and l Independent Morris OF Ne
braska) supported the administra'
ton for the resolution. Fifteen
Democrats, 20 Republicans and the
Ia Farmer.Labor members voted

PORTLAND, Oreg., April 6 (P.-
Harry F.. Sinclair of New York, head
of the Sinclair oil interests, said last
night he did not think the Mexican
government ever would submit to
international arbitration the expro-
priation of American oil properties.
Commenting OH that proposal by
the State Department, Mr.. Sim
clair said, II still think they (the
Mexican government) will settle it
satisfactorily in time, but just when
I don't know"
The Mexican government, he con-
tinued, recently protested that its
tardiness in action was due to delay
by the Mexican Supreme Court in
ruling on the appropriation. The
court having ruled, the government
has sent out appraisers to determine
what value the Mexicans place on
the property, Mr. Sinclair declared.
He asserted the word prompt
ness meant one thing to a Mex
ican and perhaps another to an
American. I'm sure the Mexicans
think they are acting with prompt
ness" he said.

Federal Hiring Of Youth
Declared Inconsistent

The civil service is discouraging
Government employment of persons
over 40. Representative Randolph,
Democrat, of West Virginia as
serted last night, while the Govern
ment is seeking to encourage their
employment or retention in private
industry.
A trend toward hiring younger
persons in civil service has been
increasing, he told the Americans
Over 40 Club at Epiphany Church,
while the Government "is preach
ing" against such practices in in
dustries.
at i'll behooves the United States
Government to speak i'll of the prac-
tices in private industry" Mr.. Ran
dolph declared, when it fails to
practice its own preachings. I've
seen the civil service shove aside
older persons for younger ones"
He suggested that the Govern
ment organize inventive genius to
discover new industries to employ
persons displaced by chronological
unemployment.
Harold Stein of the Wage and
Hour Division declared he had re-
ceived about 5000 requests for GER
tificates to permit handicapped per-
sons to be retained in industry at a
rate of pay below the 80 cent per
hour minimum. Most, he said, have
come from depressed industries
which cannot afford to retain old
employees who have a reduced Ca
pacity. Many have also come from
the apparel trades. Only some g.
600 have been granted. The gigantic
automobile industry, he said, has
found use for its old employees and
has not presented q single apphca-
ton.

"The progress toward attaining

six years under conditions Of unpre-
cedented dificulty, has brought
marked benefits alike to our agricul-
ture, our industry and our labor

policy embodied in the % trade

assurance that in the future opera
ton of the program the interests of
all sections of the country-West

all groups of the population will be
as vigorously promoted and as scru-
pulously safeguarded as heretofore.
This country and all other coun-
tries interested in the three great
objectives of the trade agreements
program are giving increased sup

principles must prevail in economic
relations among nations at the end

Roosevelt Reported
Favoring Larger
Fund for Relief
White House Misgivines
Over $685., 900, 900 Limit
Cited on Capitol Hill
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The ultimate size of next years
relief bill aroused lively conjecture
on Capitol Hill today.
Reports of White House misgiv-
ings that the $685. 900 900 budget
recommendation might not be
enough led some congressional
quarters to believe the outlay for
the 1941 fiscal year eventually would
match the current expenditure of
1,477 100000.
Although lacking official con-
firmation, the word was that Presi-
dent Roosevelt felt Congress should
permit the w. P. A. to expend all
of the 1886. 100000 during the first
eight months, if necessary, and not
continue the law requiring the
money to be allocated over a 12-
month period.
Under this eight-month plan, it
was pointed out, the w. P. A. would
be able to cope with any unemploy-
ment conditions. Any heavy drain
on the appropriation, however,
would mean that the new Congress,
meeting next January, would be
called on for supplemental funds to
finish the year.
Larger Appropriation Possible.
Informed sources predicted that
If an eight-month plan were pro-
posed formally it would meet oppo-
sition in Congress. These same
sources said, however, that if the
President asked for an additional
sum outright some extra money
probably would be approved by the
House subcommittee handling relief
appropriations.
The subcommittee, headed by
Representative Woodrum, Demo-
crat. of Virginia, cannot increase
the budget estimate unless Mr..
Roosevelt increases his original re-
quest.
Representative Woodrum said
after White House conference yes
terday that it had not been de-
termined whether the Chief Ex-
ecutive would express his views to
Congress formally in a message or
letter. Mr.. Woodrum declined to
give details of the conference, which
also was attended by Col. F. c..
Harrington, w. P. A. commissioner.
Vice Laid to Lack of Jobs.
At the Capitol, Miss Florence
Birmingham of Boston told Mr..
Woodrum's committee that many
jobless young girls had become the
property, body and soul, of the vice
lords" because they had been dis
placed in employment by married
women and refused aid by relief
agencies.
Miss Birmingham, president Of
Massachusetts, Women's Political
Club, asked that the relief appro-
priation for the coming year be
increased to $1,5O0,000,0 900.

Another Death Added
To Toll Taken by
Pennsylvania Flood
Susquehonno's Second
Crest Levels OFF With
Small Property Damage

BY the Associated Press.
WILKES-BARRE, Pa, April g.
The Susquehanna Rivers second
flood crest within a week leveled
off today far short of the previous
high.
Headwaters near the Pennsylva-
mathew York line, gorged again
Thursday by rain that washed more
snow from mountain lands. dropped
steadily. The crest moved rapidly
downstream.
The new rise brought another
death. the seventh. in the toll taken
in Pennsylvania by the week of high
waters. Anne Lucille White, 25,
slipped and rolled into flooded
Chemung River at Athens and dis
appeared.
Little, if any, additional damage
was caused, and rehabilitation of the
affected districts was resumed.
After surging upward from 23.l1
feet Thursday night, the North
Branch at Wilkes-Barre reached a
peak, of 1920 at 6 o'clock last night
and then began to recede. The first
rise reached 3l6 feet.
Weather forecasts indicated the
second flood crisis had definitely
passed. No rain was in prospect.
Lower temperatures checked the
runoff.
The Allegheny, with a trace of
snow at its headwaters, spilled over
its banks into Main street at Port
vile. N. Y. and flooded lowlands
outside Olean, where it was 1917 feet
above normal-the highest mark this
year.
