Wagner Inquiry on Relief Item Reveals Preparedness for Action. BY WILLIAM HARD. Mr. Reed Smoot, a Senator of the United States from the State of Utah, was at his best on the Senate floor last ‘I::M of ‘):yew Y(lflk. au;i-w spired profoun trust generalizations contained in the un- employment relief bill. He exclaimed: ‘It is very easy to say that we will attempt to spend this money at once in order to relieve unemployment; but I think we ought to know, if the informa- tion is available, on what particular projects operations will begin so as to employ labor prior to six months from now.” Mr. Wagner is a thick oak-trunk of a man. He is also a rapidly rotating steam-turbine of a man. He has solid- ity and he has power. He made his exclamation extremely energetic. Wesley L. Jones, a Senator of the United States from the State of Wash- ington, was quite non-committal in his reply to Mr. Wagner. Mr. Jones was charge of the bill. He has a long line of legislative accomplishments in his record. He is no mean legislator, unless the Jones five-and-ten liquor lambasting law was mean. Mr. Jones, nevertheless, in spite of his legislative wtitflde& lndl u':fmflmfie'u"d at h‘llr. agner perplexed. He began replyin with “I cannot tell” and nnhhedpgng intimating that he seemed to remember that the projects for the deepening of rivers and harbors had ben set forth on the witness stand by the War Depart- | ment’s chief of engineers. Facts on Fatted Calf. Then Mr. Smoot intervened. What he said was characteristic of & thousand interventions he has made in senatorial debate. He said: “I have the projects listed before me and, if the Senator so desires, will men- | tion them.” That's the way it always seems to| be. After the Senate has talked for two or three days about whether or not a fatted calf should be killed and about whether it should be boiled or broiled or roasted, somebody thinks of “But where, after all, is the calf?” | Then Mr. Smoot rises and says: “I know where the calf is, and he | now weighs 732 pounds.” ! “But where is he?” persists the in- TThen M n r.

Mr. Smoot is sald to consist of dust. That is not the right way of putting it. It should rather be said that Mr. Smoot is a great hand to get out ai dust. While others orate, he looks be- hind the pictures and under the rugs and back of the radiators in the Federal Government and he returns to the Senate floor with more knowledge of the Federal Government's recesses and of their contents than perhaps any other Senator has ever had in the Senate’s whole history. ‘The President’s Emergency Employ- ment Committee, headed by Col. Arthur ‘Woods of New York, is now engaged in trying to abbreviate the nine months which customarily elapse between a Federal choosing of a site for a Federal bullding and a shoving of a spade into the ground on that site for the ultimate erection of the building. Oratory against that nine months has been voluminous on Capitol Hill. Col. Woods and his aides were able easily to col- lect big baskets of criticisms of the de- lays producing the nine months. What, though, produced the delays them- selves? What were the methods, what the situations, that made the delays actually in practice occur? Mr. Smoot knew. He knew about there being only one Site Selection Committee in the whole Federal Gov- emment and about the congestion thereupon of site selection proposals in that committee’s hands. Many Things He Knows. He knew about. the legislative author- ization to the Treasury Department to engineering help for but not for building specifications. He knew about the de- termination of the controller general eral of the United States to scrutinize | the titles to sites for perhaps many weeks after the Attorney General ct the United States in the course of per- haps also many weeks had approved the titles. Mr. Smoot knew every dreary spoke on this large and laborious wheel. He knew it legislatively and he_ knew it administratively. He knows everything in Washington that would bore Borah. Mr. Smoot is now engaged with the experts of Col. Wood’s committee in thinking out ways whereby the bureau- cratic preliminaries of Federal building construction may be shortened irom nine months to eight, seven, six.

Here and there a woman attacked a policeman.

Gradually the radi- cals melted into the shopping crowd and the riot was over. Several arrests were made.

Efforts of opposing counsel to settle out of court the suit of Mrs. Edward Beale McLean, wife of the publisher of the Washington Post, were evident {:mmy when counsel for Mrs. Mc- an confirmed the report that efforts to subpoena Mr. McLean in the case had been abandoned. Mrs. McLean is suing her husband for $10,000 a month support for herself and her three children. John J.

He told the delegates that if the conference fell through, Continental Europe year would not market 80 per_cent of the sugar it did last year. “How can you possibly?” Chadbourne asked. “We have 1,500,000 tons of sugar to put where we want at what price we want. The Dutch have 500,000 tons to market where they want at what price they want. It just can’t be done, gentlemen.” Statement Rouses Discussion. ‘There was much discussion of this statement, some interpreting it to mean that if the Europeans did not reach an agreement the allied Dutch and Cuban-American interests would dump great quantities of sugar in their countries and force them to come to terms. —— Bermuda Radio Planned.
