DR, PIERCE DEFENDS * CHURCH LOBBYING ‘Minister Scores Attempts of Other Groups to Influence Legislation. Disclosutes made to the Senate com- mitee investigating lobbying were dis- cutsed from the pulpit of the Fitst Con- gregational Church yesterday in a state- ment prepared by the pastor, Rev. Jason Noble Pierce, as a ptelude to the morn- ing sermon. Estimating that more than 1.000 lobbyists represent 500 organizations here, “not counting the spokesmen who me from time to timeé to lmrresi the déht and Congress with their de- sires, Dr. Plerce’s statement said: “It would be a relief to Congress and a blessing to the country if most ¢ these busybodies could be swept out of Washington and put at constructive labor elsewhere.” Expressing the opinion that there is a grn imate field for “honest lobbying," | Dr. Plercé's statémeént cited the work of | the Federal Council of “‘conspieuous in this field.” “In eontrast to groups seeéking t6 Churches their awn advantage, the Federal Coun- cil of Churches in America has never ad- voea selfish interest, nor sought to pefsudde & solitary Congressmah, hever offered a dollar or premium, never m! into ?lfllsln polities nor main- tained a profesional lobby.” On the other hand, the paper said that “a most unethical practice of cer- tain lobbyists is to flood’ country with misififormation, hal truths, biased reports masquefading as faif statements. * * * Thus a misled public opinion is formulated to influence leg- islation.” e In Dr. Pierce's unexpected absence from the city yesterday his paper was read by E.

Julius Rosenwald of Chicago was refused a reéview by the Supreme Court of his challenge of the right of Gov- ernment to impose a Federal ineome tax on him for 1919, 1920 and 1921 o rents and certain other income which he had_assigned for five years to the Julius Rosenwald Fund, a charitable corporation. Not only did Rosenwald assign to the charitable fund rent which he would otherwise have received on large noldings of real estate, but he also assigned for a period of five years in- come he would have received from iarge investments in stock. The court #lso réfused to decide in a case from Middleboro, Mass., whether the Government in the enforcement of | the prohibition law had the right tc i demand forfeiture of an electric light- y:ug plant found to be furnishing cur- { rent used in operating illegal stills. It consented, however, to pass on cer- tain phases of the authority of prohibi- tion enforcement agents to seize empty béirels, Bottles, eorks and other articles on the ground that they were designed for the illegal manufacture of liquor, as challenged in a test case from Pitts- | burgh, brought by Ike Danovitz.

Senator Norris said that Senator Bing- ham has not yet reached the point where he realizes the Senate is con- | i demning the action. Bingham's Defense. Senator BinghAm made a statement | in his own défense At the outset 6f the | debate today in which he said: | “Whatever mistakes in judgment I | have made, however indiscreet, or over- zealous I may have been, the fact re- { mains that whatever I did was done in an effort to obtain the most complete nnrormnnoxk" -Sendtor Bingham denied that he nad been guilty of any wrongdoing. Senator Gillett of Massael while h‘ln‘lg‘ deem;m. that ?;! approve of the employment 6f Eyanson Serutor Bingham, insisted tha: the | incident was not such as to | formal action by the Bénate. He siid thap he had seen men in "he House when he was a membér of | that body taking part in legislation j under the influence of liquor. He said j that there were plenty of rumors that | Senators had botg of liquor in their oOffices, jése thi e Sald, Wwere Wofig, but, He addéd, that no effort was made by Senate action to condemn ithem nor would he join in any such action, As doon as the Senate met. Senator Norris requested that his resolution re- lating to Sénator Bingham bé laid be- | fore the Bendts. He said évérything relating to it was well known to the Seniate and that he waAS réady for 4 voté without furthér discussing it. Senéitof Blease, Demberdt, of South Carolifia, réquésted thit thé nanlul‘fm\ b réad, and indicated he had an | amendment he wanted to offer. Senator Bingham' had obtained the floor, how- ever, and said he er 'm:l his speech be; & weiling i resolution “asks for condemnation of my having u:lnced Mr. Eyanson on the pay roll of the Senate on three grounds.” He said these thro“e’ grounds weré: That it wis eon! morals; con- trary to sensttrial m And that it to the honor and reputa- . nate. utes, Senator Bingham took up sep- | arately each .of these three 'g:naen of the resolution end deniéd that there was lny'.h!n‘nflunmwllle or corrupt eoweud with his action. lérring to the first oharge,:Senator Bingham said that if it meant anythin; it suggested that his action was dis- Honest or €orrupt. { Pleads “Not Guilty” to Each. | | . “To this charge I plead not guilty,” | | SenAtor Bingham eohtinued. “There | wag fiothing a!shonest or corrupt.

Again I plead not gty Senator Bingham explained that every one knows that fouf clerkships are as- signed to each Senator, whether heé be an old member or & new one. He said it may not be known to the publie, but | 1t is understpod by évery Senator, that | the Senator is tMJIld of how these four clerkships aré fllled and how these services may be rendeted to be of the greatést value to the Seénator and the people of his State. “No Senator is criticized if he puts his relatives in these positions,” Sena- tor Bingham declared. He added that he did hot mhw his placing of Mr. Eyanson on the roll as one of his élerks to give a{lm expert advice which he needed the tariff could be held éon- trary to senatorial ethics. Taking up theé portion of the reso- lution felating to the honor and répu- | tation of the Senate, Sehator Bingham declared that he did not believé any one who listened to his previous ex- planation would say that he had Atted on dishonorable or unpatriotic matives, Senator BinghAm said that he had léafnéd recently that four or five Seéna- | tors had tarifl experts assigned to their | officés by the Government. { Smoot Offérs Substitute. As soon 4s Sepdtor Bingham had | concluded his statement Senator Smoot, | Republican, of Utah offéred his substi- tuté for the Norris resolution. The sub- stitute eliminated Senator Bingham's name and read a8 follows: “Resolved, That the Senate disap- proves the employment of a clerk to & Senator or committee of the Senate of any person who at any time during his service A8 such clerk has been or is employed by any individual, partner- ship, corporation or Association eng: in the manufacture, production or tation of articles affected by tariff egislation or by any Association or group of sueh manufacturers, produc ers or importers.” Senator Gillett of Massachusetts, who has served in the House and the | Senate for a great many years and was Speaker of the House before he was electéd to the Senate, rose to de- fend Sendtor Bifigham. The Massa- chusetts Senator made no effort, how- ever, to defend the action of Senator Bingham in employing Eyanson to aid him on the tariff bill. He merely said that hé believed Senator Bingham had no intention of wrong doi “ll& fundamental réason,’ tor Gillett, ‘husetts; | did not deme.@ S41d Seénd- ing ham, is that it i8 not the duty of Senaté to pass upon thé propriety and | the dlm:retlloti;l o!'m;mbet:. of the Senate | in some o e it they do.

'This, he sald, was & technieal violation of the Scnate rules, yet- no one wished to censure Senawor Soot for it. Notis Explains Difference. Senator Norris called attention to the fact that the tarit expert beside Sen- ator Smoot was a regular empioye of the TAtifl Commission and that he was fot getting $10,000 a year from the Connéeticut Manufactutrérs’ Association. Sénator Norris declared that Senatot Bingham had had “n6 conception of senatorial ethics or senatorial honor,” and asked why it should not be pointed out to the country. Senator Gillett replied that he had séen mén do things in the House when He was A miember of that body which | they should no' do, but which did not, in his opinion, require solemn action by | the House, “Rumor has it Senator Gillett de- clared, “that in the Capitol and in the | Senate Office Building there are bottles which should not be there. 1 would not vote for [ resolution to condemn l&y Senator for having bottles in his office 4nd making use of them, hor would I nose into it to discover any such - doings.” Senator Gillett then turned his at- tack upon Senator Norris and criticized | Norris for his coursé in appointing the lobby committee. He said that every | oné knew that the purpose of ereating the 16Bby committée was to Attack those interested in duties on manufactured goods. Yet, he said, Sehator Norris had appointed Senator Caraway, a Demo- | crat from Arkansas, as chairman of this | committee; Walsh of Montana, another Demoerat; Senators Borah and Blaine, And oné regular Reépublican, Senator Robinson of Indiana. “I do not think that was what wé should have expected from a chairman of the judiciary committee of the Sen- ate,” said Senator Gillett. Senator Nofris interrupted to invite | Senator Gillet to prepare & resolution condemnln& him. atot Gillett said ha had no inten- tion of offéring such a resolution. Sénator Nortis wanted to khow if| Senator Oillett denled the Republican- ism of Senator Borah, and whether he thought the members of the lobby com- mittée had been unfair. Senator Gillett said that was beside | the point. Senator Norris said that he had ap pointed #8 members of the lobby com- mittee, Senators who believed m mak- ing the investigation. “Question of Propriety.” Senator Gillett said Senator Norris might have accomplished the same thing by appointing five Democrats. “Ic is only a question of propriety,” said Senator Gillett. “It is not a question that calls for the action of the Senate. There is no question of moral turpitude involved. It is the same with ihe case of Senator Bingham. Senator Bingham acted with grave misjudg- ment. The results of his action we Republicans will suffer; not -the other side of the chamber. This resolution is offered to intensify that discomfort. Of course it is delightful to the oppon- ents of thé protéctive tariff theory to have this ¢ase comé up. It has charged cohstantly that the manufac- | turing intefesi# make a tariff bill. You | undeitaké to say ‘here's the case.’ You do not sAy that this representative of the Connectieut Manufacturérs' Asso- ciation was put out of the finance com- mittee meeting as soon as the Republice an members of the committeé knew that he was there. Senator Gillett sald that after the Civil War, undoubtedly there had been said there were many stories of gors geous banquets and of $100_ bills and cigar boxes and so forth. But all of that he inisted had beén over for many years, He sald that the lobbles in Washington now ohly present facts and ask lSenltor to use their judgement, as a rule. Cites Farm Organizations. He sald that the farmers’ organiza- | tions have lobbles here and so do the veterans of the World War and the prohibitionists and the anti-prohibi- tionists.

He | mention a case ih point, where threats | were made by représéntatives the Association of Post Office Clorks, when a bill was up increasing the saiary of the postal employes. Bingham Gives Views. Referring to the actions of other | Senators in having QGOvernmeént em- ! ployes assigned to their offices as tariff experts, Senator Bingham said: “Had 1 known that this practice was considered proper, it is ible that I should have asked the Tafiff Commis- sion to assign a simi Tt to me to work in my office public expense, furnishing me with facts and informa- tion to be used in arguments in favor of a high protective tariff. Not realiz- ing, however, that that was considered a normal procedure, I asked that asso- ciation in my State most intimately concerned with the process of manu- facturé, with the problems of employ- ment and unémployment, with the ac- tual cost of gemouctlon, to loan me the bést man they had who knew these acts, “Mr, Preésident, T believe in & high | protective tariff.

In carrying it out not a dollar of the pub- lic funds was misused. Nothing dis- hohorable or disreputable whs attempt- | ed. Nothing was done contfary to good | morals or to senatorisl ethies, My judgment in the way in which I en-| deavored to use this tafiff expert may ave been at faul Norris’ Reply to Gillett. i Senator Norris, replying to Senator Gillett's address, said: “The Senator from Massachusetts, without intending to do so, has im- pugned the motives of the Senator from Nebraska. This is selely & ques- tion of the honor of this body. It is| not a personal matter by any means. In the introduction of thé resolution condemning Senator Bingham, I am not _influenced by 1 motives. Nothing I have done for & lohg tite has given me as much pain as tie ‘f- troduction of this resoliition, *l:l‘kh 1 believed it is my duty to presefit. Senator McKellar of Tennedsee in- terrupted to point out that Sénator Nor- ris had agreed that if Senator Bingham would apologize to the Benate for the committee was packed 8gainst him, it | would not be necessary to introduce & resolution of censure. Senator Norris denied that there was | anyghing partisan in thé resolution he | had_oftered. He continued: | ““Fhé speech of the Senator from Massachusetts was throughout An Apol- ogy for the Senator from Conmnecticut. But we have had.no apology from the Senator from Connecticut. = The sub- Stitute offered by Senator Bmoot is & milk and water whitewash, &n apology to the country for the Benator froin Connecticut. It places the Senator in & position of apologizing to the country instead of condemning the Senator. Senator Norris said that E/anson still was ecArrying around a1 his pocket a check for $1,000 from the Senator from Connecticut “that he didn't know what to_do with.” “It i8 no defense to say the chair- man should have appointed -una-‘at Benatofs on the lobby investigating committee,” continued Senater Norris. “The evidence in this chse is not dis- puted. We should pass this resolution or stand ourselves condemned in the | eyes of the American people.” Pittman Dislikes “Dishonor.” Senator Pittman, Democrat, of Ne- vada, sald he did not like the use of the word “dishonor” in the Norris resolution, and would rather see it stricken out. Senator Pittman sald he did not believe the resolution 1d be interpreted in the way Sen Bi ham regarded it. He said, for example, that he did not believe the expréssion “contrary to good morals” meant & dis- honorable act. Senator Pittman sald he would-not like to vote to charge the Senator with dishonor, and he did not believe that was. the intent. He said the issue of acting on the resolution could not be avoided, and that the Sen- ate could not vote for a substitute like that offered by Senator Smoot. After Senator Pittman had suggest that he would like to see the word “dis- honor” eliminated, Senator Fess, publican, of Ohio inquired if Benator Pittman 'also would favor striking out the reference to good morals.
