The International Association of Machinists has appropriated from its treasury $250 for the District of Co- lumbia World War Memorial, it was announced today by R. A. Dickson, secretary of the Central Labor Union Committee which is raising funds to complete financing of the memorial. Action of the association was taken by its Executive Committee, which is holding a regular session here in the Machinists' Building. The committee consists of Arthur Wharton, interna- tional president; E. C. Davison, secre- tary treasurer; P. J. Conlon, Roberc Fechtner, Harry Brown, John Thorpe, Harley Nickerson, James Summerville and Fred Lauderman.

Special Dispatch to The Star. BUCHAREST, July 18.—What will happen in Rumania now that the reign of Carol II is launched? This is a question which even Ru- manians of long political experience dare not answer without qualification. It is like venturing to predict what the stock market will do six months hence or what thoroughbred will win next year'’s Grand Prix de Paris. Ex- perience seems to have shown that anything may happen ‘n_Rumania. The fascination of the Balkans is| grounded on that axiom. | But in another manner perhaps the query may he met to some degree. The | success of Carol as King depends upon several things, Strangely enough, for the moment none of these elements pears politically. If the political as- pect of Rumania may seem to have been slighted in these articles, it is $155,000. The memorial temple is to be erected in West Potomac Park, DEBENTURE SESSION URGED BY CARAWAY Declares President Can Effect Real Farm Relief by Recall of House Members, By the Associated Press. Senator Caraway of Arkansas, in a statement through the Democratic Na- tional Committee yesterday, said Presi- dent Hoover should call the House back into session to enact the export deben- ture plan if he really wished to aid agriculture. “The President,” he said, “admits that farm relief under the Federal Farm Board act 18 a failure. He seems to in- timate that Congress is responsible for this collapse. He possibly may be cor- rect, because Congress never believed in the provisions of the present law, but ylelded upon his insistence and, there- fore, may be chargeable with the pres- ent deplorable condition. “The debenture will cost less than the present experiment and stabilize the price of 't‘utr; &rogu " “The tari at was to equalize agri- culture and industry,” he added, “may aid in doing so by destroying both.” Caraway criticized particularly the ac- tions of the Farm Board on the wheat situation, RECREATION SURVEY | PROPOSAL INDORSED Action on Social Agencies' Council Plan Referred to C. of C.

The committee action on the pro- posal made by the Washington Coun- cil of Social Agencies was referred to the board of directors of the chamber. ‘The coramittee also recommended that the Zoning Commission rescind its recent action making approaches to Connecticut avenue commercial, fol- lowing the suggestion of Charles W.

The old Maniu government contributed gracefully to Carol's return by resigning. The new Maniu govern- ment came in a week later with its po- litical complexion still entirely Natiznal Peasant, simply abetted by a of Carol's stanch supporters. In a cham- ber of approximately 380 members the Peasant Party has some 320 seats, against only 15 of the Bratiano Liberals and a scattering of others in the op- position. Pledged to Economic Reform. In this sitaution it is generally agreed that the present government should en- dure without difficulty for a number of months and even the split in the Lib- erals between young George Bratiano, son of the renowned Ian, and his uncle Vintila has produced more smoke than fire. ‘Thus Carol's problems resolve themselves into two main divisions: The domestic question involving his rela- tions with “Queen” Helen, Mme. Lupescu and Dowager Queen Marie; the problem of internal administrative and economic reform which Carol has pledged to institute. With this in mind, King Carol's suc- cess appears to depend upon three fac- First, upon the King himsel upon his choice of - intima third, upon his attitude toward Princess Helen and Magda Lu- pescu. This, perhaps, is another way of saying that Carol's vindication rests largely in his own hands. As King, Carol has the almost unan- imous support of the Rumanian peo- ple, who have received his return with enthusiam and relief. He has the ‘whole-hearted fidelity of the army. He has Manoilesco, a man who was tried for treason because of his unswerving loyalty to the exiled prince, as minis- ter of commerce and direct controller of telegraph, ielephones and all com- munications, He has a government headed by Jules Maniu, who has dem- onstrated his friendship, and with Mi- ronesco as minister of foreign affairs— the man who accepted a temporary premiership for the sake of revoking the law of Carol's banishment and re- storing him legally as King. It must be admitted, then, that Carol has begun his regime with powerful factions and great advantages in his favor. From s normal view there would seem good reason to expect much | of Carol, provided he measures up to | opportunities whose responsibilities are equally heavy. In addition, Carol has the large asset of having made a tact- ful and conciliatory beginning in a difM- cult sitaution. Carol a Native Rumanian. Yet all these things emphasize the importance of what a man newly re- turned from long and unpleasant exile does and how he acts. I recall the words of a Rumanian banker, who said, “Carol has the great advantage of being the first member of the Hohenzollern dynasty who was born in Rumania. If King Ferdinand had acted in his youth as Carol has, he never would have been taken back. The Rumanian people cannot forget that at last they have a king who is truly a Rumanian. For that fact they have forgotten much.” “Yes,” said the Rumanian doctor across the table. *‘Perhaps too much so.” So there enters in the interrogation point which is placed after every man, newly come to great responsibilities, who has passed years in apparent irre- sponsibility. People ask: Has Carol settled down? Are his days as a pla boy prince ended? Will he make him- self over as kluhl?nm a stable and hard working monarc] In l‘ few weeks Carol has given promise of this possibility. He ha3 as- tonished those who had no faith in him. He has revealed poise and tact and ideas which many critics never expected. He has gone about the busi- ness of being king with dispatch. Does Carol possess the stamina to hold him- self steadily to the job? Will he evince the courage to show Eu and the rest of the world that the fling of youth can be lived down and belled? Those are questions for Carol himself to an- swer in the months to come. Greed Costly to Rumania. After this come the words of A man who knows the faults and virtues of his countrymen well. “Carol's success will largely depend,” he said, “‘upon what kind of intimate advisers and associates he chooses. If he keeps some of those who have been close to him in the past it will be a serious mistake.” There is wisdom in this remark.

Ro know the o Save furns- | | choice of advisers very easily . | haps nowhere in Europe is there a king- dom where political corruption, per- sonal greed and personal jealousies have played as costly a role as in Ru- mania. It is admitted on all sides that the state has been undermined by graft and extravagant xpendln, of the na- | tional income; that lust for power too often has superceded public welfare; . that Rumania as frequently has been 'o:g‘\,ciud as developed for the nation’s g00d. ‘These elements still exist in Ru- | mania. They may be cited as one rea- | son for the wariness of foreign capital. There is here a human factor; the need f leaders dedicated first to public serv- | of It ice; the necessity of honest effort. + | Carol selects such leaders, he will have performed a great service. The u:g; | solidify his reign or undermine it. Once again, as the saying goes, it is up to C'.;‘l'ol as to which course will eventuate. .| And for that solution the King must know men well and be able o inspire by leadership. Reconciliation Needed. Then it is self-evident that tranquil- lity in Rumania and confidence in the regime hkewise hinge upon Carol’s atti- tude toward Helen and Magda Lupescu. Because of the popularity and love which Princess Helen enjoys, the King needs her friendship. If he does not actually need her restoration as his legal wife—although that would be in- finitely preferable—at least, he needs the end of the sharp estrangement be- tween the mother and the father of QUEEN MARIE. PRINCE MICHAOEL. Michael. Reconciliation with Helen would send Carol's own popularity to complete reunion of the royal family. Perhaps Carol would have more to gain by that than the Princess Helen and there is reason to believe the King realizes this fact. But immediately the well built figure of Mme. Lupescu is projected into the picture. For more than five years she has exercised a hold upon Carol of which most women would be proud. For her he abandoned a throne and his princely titles and lived in exile. her he suffered international criticism and publicity, which must often have been bitter. Is it as easy for Carol, having won his throne, to renounce his favorite as it would have been for him to do so when he had no throne? After all, every king prides* himself upon being master of his own destiny and ruler, above all things, of his personal affairs. Two Schools of Thought. If Carol II intends to forget Magda Lupescu and see her no more, he has given no sign. And would it not have been a simple enough thing, these past weeks, for a spokesman of the King to have quietly informed the correspond- ents that his majesty had abandoned the lady of the ruby tresses and would see_her no more? Until that word is spoken, either privately or publicly, it seems assured that Princess Helen will remain what she has been from the beginning—a quiet, and dignified wom- an, interested in nothing but the health and future welfare of her son. And that would mean a domstic strain in the royal family which soon or late, might bear unpleasant fruit. Looking backward upon the many and varied conversations engaged in while trying to establish the funda- mental verities connected with Carol's restoration, two schools of thought are seen to exist in Rumania. There are those who refuse to believe that the even loftier heights. It would mark the | him For | King’s habits and character have greatly changed from those which made the colorful, if unconventional, prince. ‘There are those who regard Carol as a man more mature than he had been thought to be, a man ready and anxious to accept the responsibili- ties of the throne. The former school may be said to hope for the best, yet it hesitates to expect too much. Some of them go so far as to predict the return of Mme. months, or_perhaps less, as the King's favorite. They say lugubriously that the Rumanian people are certain to re- sent such an event; that difficulties for the King will result; that he will lose prestige and the regime will suffer, es- pecially should the Princess Helen be forced to leave Rumania. That is the darker picture, in unfortunate contrast to the very credible debut Carol has made as King. The Riddle of Rumania. On the other side are those Ruma- nians who see in Carol today a changed and sobered man, a monarch with his people’s welfare at heart and dedicated to the task of making flower Rumania's rich resources. They feel that the na- tion, with one man at the head of the state, has returned to normal and that their King will restore Rumania’s pres- tige as the queen of the Balkans by his tolerance and sincere effort. It is significant, perhaps, that no one talks in Rumania of Carol losing his throne, What Rumanians hope most is that Carol will keep his head,.that he will rise to his opportunities, There comes to mind once more the fact. that on Sunday, June 8, the National As sembly roared forth repeatedly the words “Long live King Carol.” Then, a few minutes later upon the well-de- served tribute of the Assembly’s presi- dent, senators and deputies with equal fervor cried “Long live Queen Helen.” ‘That, in a word, seems to remain the riddle of contemporary Rumania. MCORMICK LETTER FILES ARE RAIDED Senatorial Candidate Re- ports Other Loot Left in Ransacking House. By the Associated Press.

Nye, chairman of the Senate’s Campaign Punds Committee, temporarily halted the inquiry yesterday the Illinois Repre- sentative issued a statement saying the office of her Rock River farm estate, at Byron, Ill, had been broken into We nesday night and her letter file ran- sacked. While she refused to say the “out- rage” had any connection with the in- quiry, Mrs. McCormick pointed out that the “raiders were not in search of money or other loot, because they did not break into the safe, contenting themselves with?an examination of my correspondence.” “I have no clue to the perpetrators, but I have employed detectives,” Mrs. McCormick said. Senator Nye said he “hoped the rai sackers would be caught and punishe Nye's decision to recess the inquiry was made after a subpoena was issued for Mrs. Mabel Reinecke, election com- missioner and former internal revenue collector, who was described by the Senator as a “key witness,” whose name otted the inquiry.” She is away on a vacation. Senator Nye said the inquiry into Pennsylvania campaigns would begin the first week in August and that he did not anticipate returning to Chicago until after the Keystone State primary had been scrutinized. In addition to the $252,500 of her own money expended and the $67,214 spemt by volunteer groups, all of which had been reported by Mrs. McCormick, the inquiry disclosed that an \mrcpo!a‘d $7,207 had been spent by W. D. Alex- ander, a Bloomington, I, lumber man. Another $10,000 contribution, made by Col. Robert R. McCormick, publisher of the Chicago Tribune, was not reported by the Illinois Representative, because, as she explained. it was not used in the primary and had been kept for the Fall campaign.
