Special Dispatch TO The Star.

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
MACKINAC ISLAND, Mich, Sept.
Text of the Republican Domes-
tic Policy Committee report follows:
Immediately at the end of the
war we shall face the vital problem
of reconstruction at home. A mill
tary victory abroad without pres
ervation in America of the funda-
mental principles on which our way
of life depends will be no victory.
1t will be defeat. The way we
meet the problem of reconstruction
will determine whether the Amer
lean way of life shall survive.
We will prepare an affirmative
program designed to preserve to our
people all the freedoms for which
we fight throughout the world, based
on individual liberty. the independ-
ence Of State and local government
and the independence of Congress
and the courts.
Indorses Social Security.
After victory our first duty will be
to create the conditions under which
full employment through full pro-
duction of the goods and services so
needed by our people, may be
achieved. In SO doing we must seek
to make sure that the unemploy-
ment and insecurity of the years
preceding the war do not return,
and that hardship and poverty shall
be prevented by a comprehensive
program of social security on sound
principles. In releasing the unlim-
tied energies of the enterprise of
America the harassment of petty
bureaucracy must be brought to
an end and every American be as
sured incentive and equal oppor-
tunity.
The present program of the New
Deal administration with the en-
largement thereof set forth in the
reports of the National Resources
Planning Board, would wreck the
country because the only remedy it
proposes for any problem is unlim-
tied Government spending of bor-
roWed money. 1t would socialize all
regulation until no man or woman
could act, write, speak or live with
out Government approval. 1t would
substitute for American liberty the
regimented existence of a subject
people.
Our reconstruction, to insure real
happiness, cannot be based alone
on the improvement of standards of
living, but it must be based upon
the character of the American peo-
pie, their religious faith, industry,
morality, educated intellige ce and
ingrained love of justice. Only thus
will we remain a Nation of free men
who are masters of our own souls.

81 Are NaturaIized
Before Justice Let's

Americanism Is the highest form
of idealism, Milton w. King, presi-
dent of the District Bar Association,
told 81 persons being naturalized as
American citizens in a ceremony TO-
day at District Court before Justice
F. Dickinson Let's.
"Americanism," Mr.. King said, "is
a way from hate and fear and toward
freedom and liberty"
He emphasized that America and
Americans must do their part in
preserving democracy and furtherine
the cause of Americanism.
Justice Let's told the new citizens
how Americans are fighting through
out the world TO preserve the gov
ernment of free people" and urged
them to do their part in preserving
the Government of this Nation,
The new citizens were welcomed
also by Mrs. William E. Richardson
District of Columbia chairman of
the Manual for Citizenship Com
mlttee, Daughters of the American
Revolution, who recited 1.-THE Amer
leans Creed" and gave each of those
naturalized card containing a copy
OF the creed and The Pledge of AL
Iegiance to the Flag.
Eighty-six of those naturalized are
civilians and one a soldier. Thirty
were Italians and eight Germans.
Others came from Australia, Switz-
erland, Ireland, Russia. Greece,
Canada, Scotland, Nova Scotia, Po-
land, England, the Philippines and
Syria.
One of those naturalized was the
Rev. Sisto Checcacci, who is study
ing theology at Catholic University.

life he said. Il feel as if I am be-

control of their people. These rights
and duties the New Deal has arro-
gated to itself.
1t has now multiplied the num-
ber of Federal civilian employees
five times. Three million of them,
three times as many as during the
last war, regulate the lives of our
people. The number of bureaus has
SO multiplied that every detail of
American life is now regulated by
bureaucratic decree.
These are the instruments of
Fascism. They are the inevitabl
result of the policies of the New
Deal. They must be brought to
an end.
The Republican party insists upon
equality of opportunity for all Amer
leans regardless of race, color or
creed, in the economic, educational,
political and military life of the
Nation
Food Production Vital.
The production of food is vital to
our armed forces, to the life of our
own people as1d to the life of the
people of our Allies.
The administration policies on
manpower and farm machinery, and
inexpert price regulation, have long
hampered fulk production. Its bun
Cling regulations issued through
multifarious and overlapping agen-
cies have interfered with farmers,
professors, wholesalers and retailers
until the normal channels of trade
have been completely disrupted
Many small operators have been
forced out of business
An immediate program Of in
creased production and improved
distribution must be adopted by
single agency clothed with full power
over food in all of it's aspects.
Otherwise. we shall not only be
without the means of relieving the
starving people of Europe and Asia,

Utility Defends
Gas RATE Values
Al PUG Heariinq
Hunkin Figures FoiIed
To Include Increases.
Witness Declares

Questions as to the correctness of
1882 and 1895 values placed on the
properties of the Washington Gas
Light Co. were debated today before
the Public Utilities Commission as
the company continued to defend
the 6.5 per cent rate of return it is
allowed under its sliding scale plan.
Hearings in the case were resumed
this morning, after weekend ad-
journment, with the company call
ing on Stuart r. Rosters, valuation
engineer of the Boston and New
York engineering firm of Stone g.
Webster, to support the rate base, or
value, fixed for the company in 1885
when the sliding scale plan was
adopted.
Last week Gregory Hankin, PUG
member, had presented tables of
figures on a commission finding of
company value in the 1882 case.
He suggested at that time that the
1882 commission had found value
that was higher than reproduction
cost new without depreciation al
lowance.
Cites Addition, Increases.
Mr.. Rosters was presented today
by Company Counsel E. Barrett
Prettyman to answer the Hankin
criticisms. Mr.. Rosters supplied
exhibits to show that the figure used
by Mr.. Hankin had not included an
increase in values due TO rises in
price levels, overheads, net additions
to plant between 1882 and 1885,
land values and the value of the
Prince Georges Gas Corp.
The additions of these items, he
said, brought the total up to the
s21 100000 rate base used by the
PUG in adopting the sliding scale
plan.
Company Records Missing.
Mr.. Hankin brought out that In
the 1882 case it was found some of
the company records as to original
costs were missing. Mr.. Rosters
asserted these gaps could have been,
and he felt sure they were, filled in
by reasonable estimates of the costs
OF such properties.
This phase of the hearing was de-
ferred until later to give time for
study of the old cases and further
testimony meanwhile was taken
from Robert c. Overs, chief finance
officer of the COMPANY.

Liberty Ship Broun
Launched in Baltimore
By the Associated Prose

By the Associated Press
BALTIMORE, Sept. THE Lib
erty ship Haywood Broun, named for
the late newspaper columnist and
president of the American News
paper Guild, was launched before a
cheering Labor Day crowd yesterday
at the Bethlehem Fairfield ship
yards.
MIR. Broun's widow-the Connie
of many of his columns-planted a
kiss on the hull of the vessel and
then smashed the bottle of cham
payne which symbolically sent the
l0,50O-ton cargo ship into the waters
OF Chesapeake Bay, where waiting
tugs took it into dock for its final
fitting.
Thousands of shipyard workers
and their friends, many of them
perched on stacks of steel girders in
the sprawling yards, heard a series
of speakers pay tribute to the former
columnist.
The Broun was the 18th Liberty
ship launched at Bethlehem-F Fair
field.
