THE VENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., TUESDAY, . SENATORS ANSWER Hold They Are Accountable for Appointments Within . Their States. Criticism by the Law Enforcement Commission of political interference by the Senate in the appointment of United States attorneys has drawn re- plies from several Senators. Senator Walsh of Montana; ranking Democrat on the Judiciary Committee, said, “If the Senate is to be accused of | injecting politics into the seloction of Fl"drmlglppom!e‘s and particularly dis- trict attorneys, it may be retorted that politics are rarely absent in the nomi- nation of htem by the Executive.” “Why assail the Senate or Senators in such a matter and exempt from like criticism the President, who has sole power of appointment?” he asked. Senator Bingham, Republican, Con- necticut, defended the right and the| practice of Senators in recommending appointments to the judiciary and in- sisted that the Senators were in a bet- ter position than others to know the best qualified men in their States and were held responsible for the appoint- ments Held Political Smoke Screen. Senator Caraway, Democrat, Arkan- sas, turned the criticism back to the commission. He said: “That indict- ment could have come in better grace from a commission that hadn't thought itself to be a political smoke screen from this administration's failure to en- force the law.” The commission’s attack upon the Sonate brought into the cpen the con- flict between a considerable group of the Senate and the executive over the making of appointments. President Hcover at the outset of his administration announced a policy of independence in judicial nominations However, it was not long before pressure was brought to bear from the Senate, principally from the Republican regu- lars, for more attention to their recom- mendations for judicial appointments. Dispute Seen Over Nordbye. ‘The controversy broke again last Win- ter, when the President flatly refused to name the candidate of Senator Schall, Republican, of Minnesota, to the Federal judgeship in Minnesota. Final- ly. Mr. Hoover sent up another nominee. The Senate did not have time to act upon him. That nominee, Gunnar Nordbye. is now serving under a recess appointment. Indications are the dis- pute will be aired before the Senate. The recommendation of the commit slon for aboliticn of the grand jury sy: tem drew the indorsement of Senator Walsh, who said h2 had watched State governments function well without the g&rand juries. Chajrman Norris of the Senate Judi- elary Committee also has proposed elim- ination of the grand juries as a means of speeding up law enforcement and serving justice as_well. “Neither the Senate,” Walsh said, “nor individual Senators exercise any greater or additional sutherity respect- ing appointment of district attorneys than with respect to any other Federal officers. “Evidence is not wanting that politi- cal considerations sometimes enter into the appointment of the highest judges. The criticism, it seems to me, is one to be directed at the entire system of naming Federal officers.” Situation Exaggerated. Senator Bingham said, “I think the situation has been exaggerated as for Connecticut. The Federal attorney, while he was very active in politics, is one of the ablest lawyers in the State and we were very fortunate in getting g:m and I was happy to recommend m. “I think the Department of Justice is just &s apt to get a good district at- torney by taking the advice of a Sen- ator as by listening to any other man. After all, I know the men in my State and I assume a certain responsibility for their aprointment. It is a question of finiding the type of man who lik2s pub- lic service and who is willing to serve fcr what it pays. 1 am more likely to know those men.” UNABLE TO LEAVE WORK Castle Will Not Attend Sister’s Funeral in San Francisco. Undersecretary of State Castle said today he would be unable to leave ‘Washington to attend the funeral of his sister, Mrs. Burton Newcomb, who died yesterday at San Francisco.

GRADUATES WICKERSHAM BODY|New Vork Tndustrialist Leuds Business Education in Address to Class Of 586. Establishment of schools of foreign service and business administration, from which :rodern industry is draw- ing upon higher education for its trained specialists, has bad a salutary effect on the ethical conduct of large business, George McNeir, New York in- dustrialists and regeht of Georgetown University, declaréd yesterday after- noon in delivering the commencement address at its 132d annual graduation exercises. Praising the educational endowments made by such “captains of industry” as Carnegie, Rockefeller, Stanford, Drexel Duke and Baker, who, he declared, have left “monuments to their interest in their fellow men,” Mr. McNeir said: “It will not be disputed that a liberal education develops a higher sense of honor and rectitude. 1In the modern world it is becoming miore and more evident that the conduct of large busi- ness rests on a sense of honor and right. There is no field of human endeavor in which the application of high prin- ciples and ideals is of greater value than in business.” Look to Thinkers. As business and industry is looking to leadership from men of higher edu- cation, Mr. McNeir declared, so is the whole world in its present state of un- rest looking to the leaders of thought to solve their problems. “There has never been greater need | for men cf higher education than to- | day,” he added. i | | Out of the existing chaos in the world, he predicted, “will come & new | | world kniited closer together by com- mon misfortunes, with a wider recog- | nition of the rights of the people. a strenger sentiment for the abolition of wars, and a nearer approach to those friendly relations between nations which all right-minded men so earnestly desire.” | Toward this end the universities can | help, he declared. by “a stream of | thoughtful educated men preaching na- tional honor and._ international good | will.” | Dr. W. Coleman Nevils, president of | Georgetown, in_ his opening address to | the 586 gradustes, the largest class in | the history of the university, denounced university training that “puts educa- tion ahead of character.” Stresses Spiritual Value. He blamed existing “disrespect of law and authority” in large part on the results of a “Godless education” which | ignores the spiritual value cf character training. | “From the very start, Georgetown has sought to place character ahead of ed- ucation,” he reminded the graduates. | “Georg:town has not, changed its tra- ditional education in the past and will | not change.” | In addition to Dr. William S. Culbert- son, United States Ambassador to Chile | and formerly Minister to Roumania, Georgetown conferred honorary degrees | of doctor of laws upon two other dis- | tinguished men in their professions. | They were Prof. William J. Hughes, for 17 years on the law school faculty, and | Felix Neumann. assistant librarian of | the Army Medical Library and a fellow, | also, of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. Diplomats Present. A large number of diplomats, includ- ing the Ambassador of Chile, the Min- ister of Rumania and members of their | respective stafls; the Ambassador of | Italy, Dr. de Martino, upon whom | Georgetown recently conferred an hon- | orary degree; the Ambassador of Bel- | gium and the Minister of Panama, with | members of their staffs, attended the | exercises in honor of Dr. Culbertson Atchbishop Thomas F. Hickey of | Rochester, N. Y., and Dr. Peter V. Gun- day of the Catholic University also| were among the special guests. | Commissions in the Officers’ Reserve Corps were awarded by the War De- partment to 37 cadets of the R. O. T. C. unit. Cadet Licut. Col. Luther W. Gray of Washington received the special des- ignation of “honor student” of the corps | and will be recorded as such in the records of the War Department. In selecting the honor student the presi- dent and military instructors took into consideration the factors of scholarship, leadership and general military ef- ficlency. Commissions Awarded.

By the Associated Press. I President Hoover has under consid- eration appointment of a commission to study means of stabilizing the pur- chasing power of the dollar. For the past three years the subject has been studied by some of the best American minds. While some progress has been mcJe, it has been confined largely to appyeciation of the need of equilibrium in price levels, particularly on_commodities. Financiers, jurists, international lawyers and farm organizations have been doing some research. Representa- tive Ramseyer of Iowa, a member of the House Ways and Means Committee, undertook a study of the problem at the request of the Towa Bar Association a year ago. The Stable Money Associa- tion, headed by Frederic A. Delano of Washington, D. C.,, and listing among its personnel scores of national figures, is conducting an inquiry. Asked for Commission. ‘The American Farm Bureau Federa- tion appealed to Mr. Hoover to desig- nate a commission to find a solution to the fluctuation in money values and a possible remedy to prevent correspond- ing influence on commodity prices. Pre- viously officials of the federation made the suggestion and he asked them to return this month to discuss the matter. They said unstable purchasing power was more responsible for rises and falls in price levels than the law 6f supply and demand. Serfous evils, they stress- ed, attended wide fluctuations in the general price level. They urged a com- mission be designated, composed of bankers, economists and leaders in in- dustrial and farm groups. Owen D. Young, one of the founders cussing the problem said “the stability of money goes to the very basis of life and when any sudden change affects the purchasing power of money it touches every kind of moral question and every kind of obligation.” Members of Assoclation. Representative Ramseyer said that the question presented new thought in the field of economics and expressed the hope that many of the existing ills in the economic structure of the world would be eliminated as a result cf the study being given by leaders in various commercial enterprises. Besides Mr. Young some of the mem- bers of the Stable Money Association, with headquarters in New York, in- clude Chief Justice Hughes of _the United States, former Secrctary of State Elihu Root, Irving Fisher, Yale Univer- sity economist; W.
