While Senator Lenroot did not care to commit himself regarding the for- tunes of the World Court protocol as a result of the tax legislation coming to the front in the Senate, he inti mated that discussion of Amerjcan adherence to the World Court would be postponed until the tax legislation was out of the way. He intimated that the President’s principal concern, however, was regarding the tax re. duction.” This is taken to indicate very clearly the President's deep- rooted desire and genuine anxiety re- garding this legislation.

MOTHERS’ PENSION DIFFERENCES AIRED IN SENATE HEARING inued from First Page) i« made a part of the public school sys- tem. He also took the view that the wltiplicity of agencies would be avotded. Senator Copeland, chairman of the subcommittee, asked Mr. Ihlder if he would prefer a separate agency rather than have the entire subject dle in Congrese. Mr. Ihlder replied he supposed he would prefer some legislation to aid dependent children, but expressed the view that the creation of another sop- arate agency would be unfortunate at & time when the peopls of the District are trying to consolidate va- rious boards now existing into one public welfare board. Senator Wadsworth sald every ef- fort had been made to make his bill a model, and he expressed the belief that it comes close to embodying sound provisions adopted in States where this legislation has been tried. He sald that, while he preferred to have a board of five men named by the President, thers is room for discus- sion on the contention of local people that the Commissioners should name the board Defends Interest in Bill. Miss Loeb declared the welfare of widows and orphans presents the same problem everywhere. “I belleve the best people of the District would welcome our coming here,” she said. Miss Loeb summed up her position as being opposed to placing mothers 10 under the same board that deals with the criminal, the drug addict and similar unfortunates. Chairman Copeland asked if there Was any one present opposed to moth- ers' aid legislation, and no opposition | was expressed by any one. Mrs. Swormstedt told the subcom- mittee Senator Capper’s bill was pre- pared by the commission on public welfare legislation with the advice of Willlam Hodson, an expert of the Russell Sage Foundation, and that it represented a careful study of what has been done elsewhere. She said that in comparing the local situation it | | should be borne in mind that Wash- with what the States have done ington has no mayor, no council, no vote and less politics than other places in the country. Mrs. Swormstedt declared the Dis- trict has been allowed to drift along hout such legislation and that no concerned himself with the situ- n until “we prepared a bill." preparation of his bill started last Spring and without any knowledge that local people were working on the | subject. Mr. Ihlder pointed out that th local welfare commission sought ad vice last vear from other communi- ties.
