Senator Clements’ speech was made as the Legislature awaited a report from a House committee that would deter- mine whether impeachment proceed- ings should be started against Gov. Henry H. Horton. ‘The committee, named late yesterday, 1is studying reports of a Legislative In- vestigating Committee that inquired into State affairs, bank failures and the loss of State funds in the defunct banks and charged the Governor was domi- nated by Col. Lea and Rogers Caldwell, former investment banker. Result of News Article. Senator Clements explained his re- marks about Lea resulted from an article in today's Nashville Tennes- sean, of which Lea is publisher. This article, he declared, “insinuated” mem- bers cf the Senate were being “influ- enced” by the faction of Representa- tive E. H. Crump, Memphis political leader, that is leading the movement for the impeachment of Gov. Horton. Clements asked if a man who made sacrifices to sit in the Legislature “deserves to be held up to contempt by a newspaper operated by a man that doesn’t want to go to the penitentiary.” He declared that efforts had been made to “blufl” newspapers “that were not friendly with the squandering of millions of the peoples’ money” by filing suits against them. Col. Lea has sued for libel the Chattanooga News, Chattanooga Times and the Knoxville News-Sentinel. “He even sued the newsboy,” said Clements, because “he didn’t want the newsboy crying his name out on the street.” In Lea's suits service was had on the agents in the towns where the suits were filed.

Newspapers and importers of news- print, lumber and other forest products today won their fight to rrevent regu- lation being promulgated requiring that such imports be accompanied by con- sular invoices. Secretary Mellon ruled that, effective July 1, forest products, standard news- print paper, pulp wood and wood pulp, agricultural products, crude or unmanu- factured; crude minerals and live de mestic animals could be im) d with- out consular invoices and the necessary payment of a $2.50 fee for each invoice. tion arose several months ago after the Customs Bureau had ruled that all articles imported on the free list and on specific duty rates would not be required to be accom- panied by consular invoices. The Com- merce Department, the Narcotic Bureau and other divisions of the Government sought to have the invoice required with all imports so every shipment could be traced back to its original source. Representatives of newspapers and newsprint importers protested to the Customs Bureau that to require the in- voice on shipments of paper and wood products from Canada vo;xld greatly in- crease the expenses of newspapers. They sald the Canadian shippers would pass the cost of the consular invoice on %o _the buyer in this country. Burlington FHotel 1120 Vermont Avenue N.W.
