Elliott Roosevelt said last night
Secretary of State Hull is the only

The Presidents son discussed the

OF Vice President Garner he said:

BASEL, Switzerland, May A.
French and German soldiers got so
worked up over an exchange of loud
speaker insults from one line to the
other that the nearest thing to
battle yet staged on the Rhine front
continued for an hour last night.
It started when the broadcaster on
a German musical program which
entertains the French through
loudspeaker departed from the usual
insults to the British and compli-
ments to the French to brag about
the German victory in Norway.
This so excited the French broad
caster that he made uncompli-
mentary references about Adolf
Hitler
A German sharpshooter took pot
shot at the French loudspeaker with
his rifle.
For an hour thereafter the whole
sector north of Basel resounded with
rife, machine gun and heavy artil-
lery fire.
Military observers estimated that
at least $4,000 worth of ammuni-
ton was used up by both sides-and
they doubted whether any one in
Germany's West Wall or Frances
Maginot Line even had been
wounded.

E. Dewey, critical of the doctrine
that "the government is the only

should make provision to alleviate

New York district attorney and Re-
publican presidential aspirant said
in an address prepared for Friends

But government, in thus serving
It's people, should not be allowed to
create the impression that 1t is itself
a benevolent provider to whom all
gratitude is due. ="

Already the individual is threat

development of a sense of duty and
responsibility to his fellowmen.
"Government itself is one of
these threatening forces.
The forms of public bribery are
not always easy to detect. Some
times the statements are sugar.
coated in the speeches of propa-
gandists. At other times, a bribery
no less insidious appears in the doc

Mr.. Dewey left politics pretty
much alone. References to his
presidential aspirations were by in
ference only.
Throughout his talk he upheld the

send the measure back to the Labor
Committee for further study.

chusetts as Representative Parsons,
Democrat, of Illinois in the chair,
sought to maintain order while the
House first voted, 2l1 to I'll, to re-
Ject all the amendments that had
been ordered and then cast the roll
call vote that buried the measure.
This is not a Congress. but a
chaotic group of men, he added.

Leaders Oppose Motion.
The s50O,O0O was Mr.. Shorts esti-
mate of the outlay for salaries and
other expenses of the House during
committee and floor consideration
of the wage-hour problem.
The vote to recommit was offered
by Representative Wadsworth, Re-
publican, of New York, and was car
ried in the face of opposition of
leaders of both parties-Represent-
atives Rayburn, Democrat, of Texas,
and Martin. Republican, of Massa-

Democrat, of New Jersey, chairman
of the Labor Committee, also fought
the move
When the roll was called, 122
Democrats. 70 Republicans, two
Progressives, one Farmer-Laborite
and one American Laborite voted
to send the measure back to COM
mittee, while the opposition mus
tered 103 Democrats and 72 Re-
publicans.
Chairman Norton was one of the
first to say that the question of
amendments was "out the window"
for the session, for leaders gener-
ally recognized that, in the pre-
vailing situation. the committee
could not complete its study in time
for action before the scheduled June
adjournment.
Roosevelt Sees "Bungling."
Earlier in the day, President
Roosevelt, at his press conference.
had indicated his belief that the

Increase present exemptions from
