ROOSEVELT TARIFF ATTACK RIDICULED Senator Smoot Sees Errors, Misstatements and Twist- ed Reasoning. By the Associated Press Senator Smoot, Republican, of Utah, coauthor of the 1930 tariff act, in a statement yesterday asserted Gov. Roosevelt's recent aitack on t law ! “is the greatest conglomeration %t er-| rors, misstatements, false conceptions | and twisted reasoning that has en- tered into the present campaign. “It is charitable to assume,” said Benator Smoot, “that the Democratic presidential candidate is ignorant of the facts concerning our tariff and in- ternational trade. Any other assump tion would indict him for gross mis- | Tepresentation and intellectual dishon- | esty.” Smoot listed seven “errors” as (he' “most glaring biunders in the Gov- ernor's Sioux City address,” and put forward replies to these. Prices Down 20 Per Cent. The Senator said the price of fin- fhed products which the American farmer and other citizens buy has fallen 20 per cent since the 1930 tariff act became effective. He denied that any American factory has moved to Can- ada and said only one has moved abroad. He said the foreign branch plant movement reached its climax in 1929 and had been diminishing since the 1930 act went into operation. American _export trade, argued Smoof} shed only proportionately to production. He said this ult of the world depresslon rather than the tariff Denying retaliations by foreign gov- ernments to the 1930 tariff act, Smoot said in 1928 thore were 133 tariff ad- Jjustments in the 65 leading nations and only 23 in 1931. Free Imports Drop. The Senator said the value of im- ports that come into the country free of duty had fallen by almost double the amount of the value of dutiable ] imports since June, 1930, “and Gov. Roosevelt thus has put himself in the diculous position of blaming the the failure of free trade.” Gov. Roosevelt's declaration reduction of ‘“excessive rates,” Smootrepiied “there no excessive rates in the tarifi law Rates that were once relatively high bave in effect” he said, “been melted down by the depreciation of currency in 41 nations that trade with us.

BY LESTER N. INSKEEP, Staff Correspondent of The Star. ARLINGTON COURT HOUSE, Va.,| October 1.—The County Board today | voted to borrow $150000, of which | amount $140,000 is to refund existing | notes and the remaining $10,000 to| meet current expenses. The meeting | of the board was featured by warnings | from both County Treasurer Charles | T. Jesse and Commonwealth's Attorney | Lawrence W. Douglas that the practice | of transferring money from one fund | to another is illegal. and the board was future. Requests for immediate deci- | sions on the questions of an approach | to the Arlington Memorial Bridge and | the approval of the proposed leasing of the Washington-Hoover Airport to the Federal Government were not granted. In votirg the loan, it was explained that at least $40,000 more will be . needed for county expenses before the | December tax payments come in, and | when this is borrowed the board will| be faced with an indebtedness of at least $190.000 that will, under the law, have to be paid by December 15. | Holds Fund Transfer Illegal. Jesse called attention of the board | to the transfers of various funds and expressed the opinion that they were illegal. This opinion was shared by Douglas, especially with respect to the water fund. The water department, he said, does not belong to the taxpayers, | but to the users, by whom the entire | costs of operation are paid. | Both the board and County Manager | Roy S. Braden took the position that | it was more desirable to borrow from a | county fund than to borrow from banks at 6 per cent interest. Douglas agreed, but still contended that it was illegal and expressed the hope that the board | would not again place itself in a ques- tionable position. Monroe H. Stockett, chairman of the Road Committees of both the Chamber of Commerce and Civic Federation, asked the board to make an immediate decision as to a route to the bridge, | whether there are any funds available or not. If the board will select a route the civic organizations can start the work of securing rights of way and have the project ready for immediate construction when the funds are made available, he said. Chairman Fellows said that the members of the board had about agreed upon a route, but, for reasons that could not be given, ‘umnnot announce their decision at this e. Airport Bill Approval Sought. ‘The board refused a request by S. J.| Soloman, representing the National Aviation Corporation, for approval of the House bill to lease the Washington- Hoover Airport for a municipal airport for the District of Columbia. Soloman claimed that the leasing of the airport, with future purchase optional. would amount to a tacit admission on the part of the Federal Government that it did not own the land. as is being claimed. PLAN IS ALTERED Voluntary Domestic Allotments to Be Managed by States Rather Than U. 8. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, October 1.—A commit- tee sponsoring the voluntary domestic allotment plan, which aims to furnish aid to farmers who agree to restricted crops, has changed the original scheme to remove management from the Fed- eral Government to the various States. This change, announced today, would obviate an increase in Federal bureaus, although the scheme would be under supervision of some existing national department, such as Agriculture. Allotments would be made as already Planned, but they would be paid to State organizations with farmers who participate agreeing to limit production as may be required, the Federal admin- istration working through the States. The revised plan would be along the lines of the Federal highway program, and the Federal Government would make an allotment each year, with the States left to carry out the details. The committee was composed of M. Montana State College: H. n of Boston, president of United States Chamber of Com- R. Rogers, assistant secre- Prudenti®l Life, Newark: H. A.

By a Staff Correspondent of The Star. ALEXANDRIA, Va, October 1.—| Fairfax County police tonight were searching for a young white man who | held up a gasoline station operated by | D. J. Garber at Gum Springs, Va., and a fruit stand near Woodridge, Va., with a pistol and obtained $20 from the fruit proprietor and $2 from the gas station. | A third hold-up by the same man | was frustrated by Henry Taylor, pro- prietor of a gas station at Penn Daw, 3 miles south of here.

Mindful of last year's controversy, the naval service was instructed yester- day to confine the speeches on this | year's Navy day celebration, October 27, | to considerations of the naval genius of George Washington. Secretary Ad- | |ams, in a communication to all ships and stations, “in the desire to avoid controversial issues,” warned naval| orators to be circumspect. In his message on Navy day, the cab- | inet officer said: “The general theme of speeches will the naval genius of George Wash- | gton. Accordingly, and in the desire to avoid controversial issues, the com- mittee will supply material for Navy cognizance of commanders afloat and | district commanders, by officers under their command.” Upham Heads Committee. - Mr. Adams announced that Rear Ad- miral Frank B. Upham, chief of the Bureau of Navigation, Navy Dep: | ment, will be chairman of the depa ment’s Navy Day Committee, which will | act as the liaison agency between the department and the United States| George Washington Bicentennial Com- mission. It will be charged with ar- ranging a national radio broadcast, teature newsreels. posters, speech mate- rial and the furnishing of special ma- terial to force commanders and district commandants. On its mimeograph machines, the Navy has already run off a sheaf of appropriate addresses, paying tribute to the Father of His Country as a naval genius and these are to be memorized by the orators, who will deliver them | to Navy day audiences, assembled from one end of the land to the other. Expenses for travel cannot be met this year for those officially participat- | ing on the program of Navy day, Sec- retary Adams informs all ships and stations. He says, “It is desired to em- phasize the fact that Navy day is the Navy's day at home, afloat and ashore, for receiving, entertaining and being inspected by the citizens of our country.” The list of Navy day chairmen shows that for Maryland, Wallis Giffen of RF.C. RAILLOANS MAY YIELD PROFT Advances in No Sense Gifts, Says Head of Lines’ Credit Corporation. | Secretary Adams Seeks to ' Special Dispatch to The Star. BOSTON, Mass,, October 1.—Loans which the Government is making to the railroads through the Reconstruction Finance Corporation “are in no sense gifts or doles,” if previous lending opera- tion of this character are a criterion, E. G. Buckland, president of the Rail road Credit Corporation, tonight told the Society of Officers, Eastern Associ- ation of Railroad Veterans, here. “On the contrary, if that history be a precedent, they will prove to be profit- warned to avold such action in the|day addresses to be made under the able transactions for the Government,” Mr. Buckland said, amplifying: Big Loans in Past. “During the period when the Govern- ment operated the railroads, from Janu- ary, 1918, to March 1, 1920, and in che years succeeding Government opera- tion, the United States loaned to the railroads almost $1,116,000,000. Of this | amount, the railroads have already re- paid to the Government almost $1,077,- 000.000, leaving a balance outstanding of a little over $39,000,000. In addition, they paid 6 per cent interest upon the principal sums, or nearly $181.000,000. “The money which the Government loaned the railroads cost it about 4 per cent during this period and as % received 6 per cent from the railroads, one-third of the interest received was profit amounting to a little more than $60.,000,000, so that even if the Govern- ment should not receive any further payments on the $39,000,000. still owed. it has made already a cush profit of nearly $21.000,000, added to which will be so much of the $39,000,000 as yet may be repaid.” Argument for Equality. ‘The speaker, who heads the organiza- tion created by the carriers to make loans to those lines unable to meet their fixed charges from emergency freight rates granted by the Interstate Commerce Commission, argued for “equality of opportunity” for the rail- roads to compete with highway and water carriers.

They say he commis- sioned the first ship for service during the war, for the first of his fleet was the schooner Hannah, commanded by | Capt. Nicholson Broughton of Marble- | head, Mass. This was the first war- ship regularly commissioned by au- thority derived from the United Colo- nies, with orders to attack the enemy, the historians explain, adding that Washington commissioned other ships and when his activity was accentuated, & lethargic Congress was roused to a tlon. On October 5, 1775, Congress in- | structed Washington to fit out armed | vessels. The hand of Washington could | be seen in the masterly maneuvers, in | which he kept his army out of the| clutch of the British by transporting them across arms of the sea and rivers, | the historians explain. o In his army was a regiment com-| posed of Massachusetts sailors and fishermen and these he used to man the | nucleus of the American Navy. Wash- | ington’s crossing of the Delaware River, | with his army, was not done without a | knowledge of naval tactics, say the his- torians. for he not only saved his mili- the hands of the British. Vessels played an important part in the surrender of Burgoyne's force at Saratoga and the; French fleet at Yorktown was another | instance of the naval genius of Wash- ington. The Father of His Country was first headed toward a naval career, until fate made him the commander in chief of the Continental Army, they say.

A prediction that Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt would be elected by a great majority, that the Democratic margin of control in the House would be largely increased and that the Demo- crats would win the Senate by a sub- stantial majority was made yesterday by Senator Swanson of Virginia, chair- man of the Senatorial Campaign Com- mittee of his party. At the same time Representative Steagall of Alabama, chairman of the House Banking and Currency Commit- tee, declared maladministration of the Farm Land Bank law had resulted in | the loss of “hundreds of thousands of farmers’ homes.” Steagall, in a state- ment, said it was amazing the admin- istration should now be taking credit for relief measures which were the “result of law forced through by a Democratic House and Democrats in the Senate over the most stubborn and persistent opposition of the Pres- ident and all his spokesmen." smen. At Headquarters Two Weeks. Senator Swanson said he had been in New York headquarters for about ! two weeks and in that time had had opportunity to get into touch with the conditions throughout the country. “There is not a State in the Union,” said Senator Swanson, “in which the Republicans do not have a fight.” According to the Virginia Senator, the Republican leaders cannot escape responsibility for depressed economic conditions in view of the fact they have in the past taken credit for pros- erity. “The late Senator Dwight W. Mor- row, with his clear mind,” said Sen- ator Swanson, “said one day on the floor of the Senate that he that claims to be able to make rain cannot es- cape blame if there is a drought. That is the Republican situation today. The Republican leaders, including Mr. Hoo- ver, back in 1928 took credit for pros- perity and gave the country all man- ner of assurances that prosperity would advance under their control of the Gov- emment. Now they cannot expect to escape blame for the depression.” [ Senator Swanson declared nothing the Republican leaders could do now would change the heavy drift of votes toward the Democratic ticket. He does not _expect the speech of the President at Des Moines or other speeches by the President to turn the tide. “I believe the country has made up its judgement and that it has deter- mined on a change.” said Senator Swanson. “and that its decision will ?oz be altered between now and elec- ion.” Blames Administration. Representative Steagall sought to' throw blame on the administration for | the management of the land bank ' system and for what he called “heart- | less and wholesale foreclosures of hundreds of thousands of familles {under the present administration at | Washington.” “The supporters of the administration in their desperation are filling the air | | with all sorts of ridiculous claims and | rr:l‘r’mc appeals,” the Alabama Democrat said. “Every time s Government loan fis made, or an expenditure is taken for purpose of relief, the country is told | through the press that the President is Tesponsible. “The fact is, as every informed per- son will remember, that all of this fs the result of provisions of law forced | through by a Democratic House and Democrats in the Senate over the mos: stubborn and persistent opposition of | the President and all his spokesmen.” TREASURY AIDE SPEAKS BEFORE COLORED VOTERS John J.
