Foreign-Born Farley Gets
|ckes' Wish for Success

Secretary of Interior Ickes has
wished "every success In the reali-
zation Of its enlightened program"
to the fourth annual conference of
the American Committee for Pro-
lection of Foreign Born, to be held
here on March 2 and 3 in the An
napolis Hotel
Secretary Ickes in letter to DR..
William Allan Nelson, president
emeritus of Smith College, who with
Ernest Hemingway, novelist, is CO.
chairman of a committee of 100
sponsors for the conference, de-
clared:
"The efforts of the American
Committee for Protection of Foreign
Born in defense of the best American
traditions deserve the support of all
men of good will. 1t seems to me
to be self-evident that any attack
on the foreign born is, in the last
analysis, an assault on the liberties
of all American citizens. For, as
President Roosevelt has said re-
Gently, all of us are immigrants or
the descendants of immigrants.
wish the fourth annual conference
every success in the realization Of
its enlightened program"
The conference is to be devoted
to consideration of the status of the
foreign born in this country, with
special attention to be given meth
ods of promoting and facilitating
naturalization of non-citizens.

tions would be the establishment of
an interdepartmental commission.
plus separate tariff board in which
both political parties would be repre-
sented, but the balance of power
would be held by the party in power
in Congress.
But when one strips the trade
agreement controversy of all its sur
face factors, it will be found that
basically Americans differ funda-
mentally on the question of high or
low tariffs and that economic ma
tionalism still has powerful backing
in the Congress of the United States
Notwithstanding the fact that sub

blles, would like to make it possible
for foreign countries to buy more
American products through an in

braska senatorial primary-that
while Senator Burke opposed the
Presidents court bill in 1887, in
1899 and 1910 he has stood squarely
back of the Presidents foreign pol
icy and has supported him on other
issues.
Senator Burke, it was pointed out,
promptly declared himself in favor
of the Presidents proposal to repeal
the arms embargo, when the special
session Of Congress was called last
fall to deal with neutrality legisla-
ton. And as matter of fact, there
has been reason to believe there has
been growing feeling of friendli-
ness on the part of the admins
tration for Senator Burke since last
year. In connection with the sup
port which Burke has given the
President in connection with for
eign policy, it is now declared here
that Gov. Cochran remained quiet
during the congressional fight over
the arms embargo repeal.
The support which Senator Burke
gave the President in the arms
embargo fight was by no means a
negligible factor In winning that
battle. Here was Democratic SEN
ator from Midwest State where it
was believed the sentiment in favor
of keeping this country out of war
and maintaining the embargo on
the sale of arms and munitions to
the belligerent nations was espe-
cially strong. Particularly was Sem
ator Burke's aid of value because it
came early. when some of the other
Senators we're still on the fence in
this matter.
Joined President on Beef ISSUE"
Beyond this, Senator Burke de-
Tended the President during the
tempest-in-a-teapot over the Argen-
tine canned beef bought by the
United States Navy. The President
took the side of the Navy in this
matter and Senator Burke's argu-
ment was that the Navy should be
allowed to purchase canned beef
from Argentine if it felt it could get
better buy, but that If the Navy
was to be barred from such pur-
chase, then all other Government
departments also should be barred.
The administration was taking it on
the chin in this rgument-from a
lot OF Western Democrats-and
Burke's support was welcome.
1t was Senator Burke who piloted
the nomination of Associate Justice
Frank Murphy to the Supreme Court
of the United States through the
Senate without the slightest ripple.
Senator Burke was named chairman
of the subcommittee of the Senate
Judiciary Committee which handled
the nomination when it was sent to
the Senate by the President. While
it was generally believed that Justice

some of the measures presented to
them. Also the failure of the ad-
ministration to win In any of the
attempted senatorial purges two
years ago has not encouraged the
burgers. There are nine or ten Sena-
tors other than Senator Burke who
failed to support the President in his
court bill fight who also are up for
