STAR WASHINGTON D. c.. FRIDAY JUNE s. 1912
House 10 Act Today
On Continuance Of
|NYA and CCC
Dirksen Amendment
Would Abolish Youth
| Agency, Shift Activities
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
With tentative approval ac-
corded the bulk of the $l,058,-
451, $50 appropriations measure
for the Labor Department, So
cial Security Board and kindred
Federal agencies, the House was
to assemble an hour earlier to-
day to tackle the question of
continuing or killing the Civilian
Conservation Corps. 1t was to
also vote on a move to kill the
National Youth Administration.
An amendment by Representative
Tarver, Democrat, of Georgia would
restore to the bill a knocked out
appropriation of $75,8l8,000 to pro-
vide for $50 CCC camps.
That figure, which compares with
last years appropriation of Sl71,-
l42 900, was eliminated in committee
on the motion of Representative
Engel, Republican, Of Michigan, who
told the House most of the boys in
the CCC camps came from the farms
or small cities, and they ought to
stay on the farms where they belong
before the farm labor situation is
further aggravated"
End to NYA Asked.
Opposed to that view was Repre-
sented Pierce, Democrat, of Oregon,
who said:
IF Japanese planes come over the
Western forests, high-hying, loaded
with incendiary bombs, it would take
an army to control the forest fires.
The protection given by the CCC
for this summer alone in Oregon is
worth the entire appropriation"
While much Of yesterdays general
debate was concerned with CCC,
the NYA also came in for its share.
The bill provides S58, ,049, 900 for
the NYA, as compared with $751;
767, 900 appropriated last year. Rep
resentative Dirksen, Republican, OF
Illinois planned to offer an amend
ment abolishing the agency and
transferring its activities in defense
training and other educational work
to the ONCE of Education of the
Federal Security Agency, which, he
said, was already doing such work
and equipped to do it all.
Duplication of Effort.
Representative Dirksen said the
education office already carries on a
program under which l.064,000 had
been enrolled in the pre-employment
training classes and 1.127,723 had
been enrolled in supplementary
training courses. He also said the
education office was carrying on the
program of defense training in
1884 schools.
The NYA." he continued. "is q
duplication Of this whole effort, and
this activity should be consolidated
in a permanent agency of Govern
ment such as the Office of Educa-
ton, which is thoroughly organized
to handle the matter"
Representative Fitzgerald. Demo-
crat, of Connecticut said that ''if
the NYA had received the proper
appropriation in 1887 there would
not be such a shortage of skilled
mechanics as we are now suffering,
while Representative Keefe, Repub-
lican, of Wisconsin disputed Mr.
Dirksens contentious, and said that
in thousands of communities there
is no vocational training activity
provided except that Of the NYA.

Two Americans Given
Maximum of Four Years;
Obunu 2 to 6 Months

Frederick Vincent williams,
81, and David Warren Ryder, so,
veteran American publicists,

four years each for violation OF

propaganda activities on behalf
of Japan before the war.
Tsustomu !Obana, secretary Of the
japanese propaganda organization
which employed Williams and Ryder

six months on his plea of guilty to
violating the act Obana was star

victed by District Court jury Mon

Japanese Committee on Trade and
Information, San Francisco, a group
financed by the japanese govern
ment through the Japanese con-
sulate general in San Francisco.
Activities of Publicists.
The two publicity men failed to
comply fully with the Registration
Act, which requires foreign agents
to file statements with the State
Department disclosing fully their
connection with foreign principal.
The activities of Williams and
Ryder consisted mainly of writing
articles. making speeches and ar
ranging radio programs for the
Japanese.
In imposing sentence. Justice r.
Alan GoldSborough criticized Will
liams and Ryder for trying TO be
crooked or smart with their own
government at a time when the
Democratic ideology hung in the
balance"
With the country trying to main
tain freedom of speech, the Gov
ernment only asks that foreign
agents identify their connections. d"
Justice Goldsborough said. 1T was
so little to ask and such a terrible
thing not to disclose"
Contrasting the cases of williams
and Ryder with Obana's, Justice
Goldsborough said that in the lat
ter's case, He at least was not
crooked with his own country"
Has Never Seen Child.
Attorney William A. Porter asked
for leniency for Obana. He said
Obana's wife had borne a child
since he was sent to jail February

would have to remain in a detention
camp the remainder of the war.

counts, Ryder on two counts and
Obana on five counts. Williams
faced a maximum sentence of 20
years imprisonment or a fine of
5000, or both, and Ryder four
