Comments of Senators. Comments of Senators follow Senator King, Democrat, of Utah—1 em opposed to recognition. I have visited Russia and know its leaders, know its people, know the tyranny un- der which they suffer and the oppres- sion under the Communist regime. I know how the Third Internationale is being used as a battering ram aga nst my country and all other countries in the world. 1 told the leaders—Stalin and the vest—that if they would disassociate the propaganda of the Third Internationale from their government and would con- fine their government to legitimate gov ernmental activit I would recommen the recognition of Russia by the United States They said they would not do this. that the bourgeois governments must be destroyed. Millions are starving in Rus- sia, and they have nothing to export The only reason they want recognitio is to gain credit. Until they refo their government along accepied line. 1 shall oppose its recognition by the United States. Senator La Follette, Repub gressive, of Wisconsin—I am Tecognition First, bec: an pro- favor of e I believe in the facto form of government. This try always has recognized the de facto government. and if it had continued to Tecogniz that form of government in yecent years, it would not have become involved in the trouble it has in South America “Second, because, in my opinion, we have npt the right to determine the form of government that any other nay decide to set up. mg}:’-}rgu"‘d. because recognition of Rus- a would afford us an opportunity to set up favorable trade relations. “And fourth, because, if you grant, for the sake of argument, the theory held by these opposed to the de facto government—that it is unsound—never- theless, it does not seem consistent to me that if you recognize a government like Ttaly, which is a dictatorship from the right, that you should not recog- nize a government like Russia, which is a dictatorship from the left." Senator Lewis, Democrat, of Hlinois— T feel the subject should be studied but that mo conclusion should be reached during this administration that will have a bearing on the coming edministraton | Senator Bankhead, Democrat, of Ala- bama—My inclination 15 to recognize Russia. However, I would be inclined at the same time to subordinate my views to those of President-elect Roose- velt, whose duty it is to deal with for- eign nations s Senator Bulow, Democrat, of South| Dakota—I - haven’t given it much thought, but my views offnand ‘would | be that we ought to recognize Rus-| Hia Cre Yo v Senator Barkley, Democrat, of Ken-: tucky—] don't think I am prepared to be polled on that vet Senator Tydings, Democrat, of Mary- land—I have an open mind on it. I would want to hear the matter dis- cuzsed before making a decision one way or another. Senator Austin, Republican, of Ver- mont—I don't want to state what my views are at this time. Senator Black, Democrat, of Alabama oI favor it. I don't think we have any right to pass on the form of govern- ! ment of any country in the world, We haven't attempted it for any clh(‘r‘ country. Senator Barbour, Republican, of New Jersey—I am.opposed to it. Senator Copeland, Democrat, of New York—My present views are in oppo- sition to it. I have been so out of sympathy with the collectivization sys- tem and the treatment of the churches | and their failure to acknowledge certain obligations owed to us, that my in-| clination is to oppose recognition. Senator Glass, Democrat, of Virgini: I never express myself on such ques tions until I vote. ¥ Senator Wagner, Democrat, of New York—I would vote for recognition of Russia primarily for trade relations pur- Pposes. Senator Capper, Republican, of Kansas —I am not declaring myself until I see how it comes before the Senate. Senator Kean, Republican, of New Jersey—I am not a member of the Foreign Relations Committee. Senator Thomas, Democrat, of Okla- homa—In principle I am for the recog- nition of Russia. the principal reason being that we have no right to de- termine the form of government under which any other people shall live. Of course, I reserve the right to change my mind ‘in the event of some future unforeseen development in the inter- national situation 3 Senator Cutting, Republican, of New Mexico—In favor. Senator George, Democrat, of Georgia At present my mind is_open on the subject of recognition of Russia Senator Fess, Republican. of Olio- X oppose recognition of Russia on at least three grounds: F al of the government to recognize loans made in good faith to Russia as an associate in the war he simple fact that agreement wi that would not respect t 8 contract would have no fo ond, no recognition should be any government that, through pr ganda by its citizens. undertakes to dermine the national character of government whose recognition is ¢ Third, rights of American citizens w in foreign countries must be respectcd 2s 8 price for the recognition of t government, and Russia does this. 1f these conditions are would vote gladly for recognitic Senator Bulkley, Democrat, of Ohio— 11 make up my mind when the time comes g Senator Costigan, Democrat, of Colo- rado—I am in favor of it Senator Byrnes, Democrat, of South Carolina —1 haven't devoted thought to the subject Senator Connally, Democrat, Texas—1 don't care to make any ment Senator Coolidge, Democrat, of Mas- sachusetts—Sometimes there situations change over night and I don't care to go on record at this time.

Mg impression is now that I would not favor it, at least without studying it first Senator Hale, Republican. of Maine— T don't want to say anything on tne matter until I have had a chance to Jook into it thoroughly. Senmter Logan, Democrat, of Ken- tucky—My inclination at this time is that we should recognize Russia. The only reason I have now is that they have a government over there. I don’t feel it is any of our business to tell any people what sort of government they should live under. Senator Pittman, Democrat, of Nevada—I am in favor of the recogni- tion of Russia, if we can benefit more from the recognition than they can. Senator Arthur R.

Jones explained this was purely per- missive and that where a farmer had cut his acreage sharply in 1932, it was not intended he should be forced to make another large cut in 1933.

The Senate commiltee resolution fol- lows more nearly the Republican plat- 6rm which declared against the return of the saloon and proposed to place a bin on the saloon in the Constitution The Republican platform also de- manded protection for the dry States. The Senate may, if it so desires, re- verse the action of its Judiciary Com- mittee by a majority vote and make the repeal resolution conform with the Democratic plaiform. However, in view of the votes taken in the committee, it is not believed such a course will be followed. The Blaine subcommittee completed hearings on the House beer bill Satur- day, and Senator Blaine said he would cail a meeting early this week to act on_it. Friends and foes of prohibition pre- sented sharply contrasting views on the | constitutionality of the measure, which would legalize 3.2 per cent beer, and it may be redrafted by the subcommittee before being reported back to the full committee. 3 I CANONIZATION DECREE | ORDERED BY POPE Andre Fournet Made S8aint and Beatified Vatican Ceremony.

Shooting broke out be- tween the Extremists and guards at San Augustin Barracks and in front of the Palace of Justice Officials said the uprising had been planned for several weeks and that stores of arms and bombs had been seized. Armed guards were placed around police headquarters in Madrid, Barcelona and other cities long before any outbreaks yesterday. Authorities said today they believed the movement was collapsing. Apart from frustrated attempts to as- sault the artillery barracks and Quatro Vientos Airdrome, where soldiers wound- ed one Extremist, Madrid was quiet. Reinforcements were guarding the war ministry and official buildings in strategic points. Town Is Recaptured.

By the Asso In the midst of compromise efforts banking,_ controversy, Glass (D. of Va), told the Senate today during debate on his | banking reform bill that he felt “auth- v that President-elect Roose- H | velt wants this bill passed.” | The compromise on foot would per- | mit branch banking by National bank | only in those States permitting Sta banks to have branches within State | lines. The present provision, over which Democratic liberals and conservatives split, would permit branches re- gardless of State laws prohibiting them. | Denies Veto Awaits’ Bill. Upon resumption of Senate consider- ion of the measure, Senator Glass asserted he wanted to “deny” the bill | would “incur a veto from the President- | elect” as he said had been predicted in | some quarters unfriendly to the measure. Senator Long, Democrat, of Lou | ana, outspoken opponent of the bil branch banking clause, immediately ir quired where Senator Glass got his in- formation Glass replied he was “not imparting | the information requested by the Sena- r from Lou but was making statement what the Senate | ks it is worth.” ass said Roo realized there as considerable gonism to the present branch banking provision, and | not much chance of passage of the bill| with that provision in it. The Virginian said that was his own judgment also. - Glass said he was willing to accept the amendment offered by Senator | Vandenberg, Republican, of Michigan, which he said “cuts the ground from under the cnticism that the bill was designed to crate banking monopolies.” { Vandenberg’s amendment provided that no national bank branch could be established in a community unless it acquired existing banks, but would not apply to communities in which there were no banks. Press ara i i i velt Glass Explains Amendment. “The controller of the currency can | tell you that now there are thousands | of communities destitute of banking facilities,” Glass continued. “The second largest tobacco county in Virginia (which he did not name) | is destitute because three banks there failed, tying up $2.750,000.” “Apprehending” that t reasonable proposal” might not prevail, Glass said, he prepared an amendment confining | the branch banking “to those States whose laws permit or practices toler- ate” branch banking “Objections having been raised to that by a Senator from a State which has no laws on the subject,” Glass said, he revised the amendment to confine branch banking to States where the laws permit it. Security Affiliates Debated. New opposition to the bill was aimed at the bill's provision that national | benks must divorce themselves from se- curity affiliates in three years Indications were the measure would be before the Senate the entire week because of these two major points of difference and plan to sidetrack it tem- porarily whenever appropriation bills | are ready for consideration. Opponents of the security affliate clause argued that affiliates have be- | come necessary adjuncts to the banks, and i; they must be separated, more Suporters of the section allowing na- tional banks to have Branches within State ines by taking over weaker in- itutions, found a strong advocate in P. D. Houston, treasurer of the Amer- | ican Bankers' Association, who said | such consolidations were necessary if | further bank failures are to be avoided. Houston, in a formal statement, esti- mated the damage to the Nation's credit structure from bank closings at approx- imately $7.500,000.000 and said many small banks now finding it difficult to survive will “find it possible to continue to serve their communities after consol- idation with a stronger bank.” “The alternative to consolidation and absorption,” he said, “appears to be suspension, with resultant loss to depos- | itors, stockholders and the community generally.” SCHILDHAUER HOME ‘NEST’ TO BT BARED Widow Wx;])escribe Free Love Married Couples, Says Attorney.
