Tariff Plan By the Associated Press. LONDON, June 22.—An announcement from headquarters of the American delegation at the World Economic Conference today described a resolution introduced before the conference by Secretary of State Hull as “designed to lay the foundation for a gradual reduction and removal of artificial barriers to trade.” The resolution, which the announcement said was introduced by authority of the American delegation and on instructions of the United States Government, read: “Whereas the various nations have been constrained on one hand to impose restrictions upon imports in the nature of tariffs, quotas, em- bargoes, etc., and on the other hand by subsidized exports; “And wheress this tendency has resulted in nationalistic action in all nations, which, if carried to the logical conclusion, will result in almost complete elimination in international trade and return to trade isolation; “Whereas it is agreed that this tendency must be arrested if world recovery is to be achieved and a decent standard of living is to be widely maintained; “Now, therefore, be it resolved that all the nations participating in this conference agree: “First, that it is against the common interest for any nation to adopt or continue a policy of extreme nationalism and to raise additional trade barriers and discriminations; “Second, that embargoes, import quotas and various other arbitrary restrictions should be removed completely as quickly as possible; and, “Third, that tariff barriers should be reduced as quickly as possible by reciprocal bilateral agreements or by multilateral agreements to the point where trade can once more move in & free and normal manner; and “Fourth, that care should be taken in making bilateral and multi- lateral agreements not to introduce discriminatory measures, which, while providing an advantage to contracting parties, would react disadvan- ‘tageously upon world trade as a whole.” COX'S EXPLANATION PRESIDENT STARTS CONVINCES BONNET - ANEW ON CRUISE | American Statement of U.

A full statement of property owned by himself and his imme- diate family “to serve as a mat- ter of public record” was sent to the Secretary of State today by Dr. Arthur E. Morgan, chairman of the Tennessee Valley Au- thority. The step, an innovation in governmental office holding, was taken by Morgan without sug- gesting that other officials follow. “President Roosevelt has ap- pointed me to be chairman of the board of directors of the Tennessee Valley Authority,” Morgan wrote to the State De- partment. “In this position I shall have responsibility for certain public money and public property. “As a matter of public policy I am sending you herewith for your records a statement of all real and personal property and other assets owned by me and by my wife and children as of June 1, 1933.

Johnson Describes Trade Cove-; nant Objections as “Grow- ing Pains.” A vigorous protest from labor was made today against the national re- covery administration’s plan that agree- ments within industry on minimum wages and maximum hours be arrived at without involving collective bargaining with the workers. At the first meeting of the Labor Ad- visory Board presided over by Secretary Perkins organized labor asked that it be consulted before industry presents proposed agreements to the recovery administration for approval. Hugh S. Johnson, the administrator, i had said in one of his first pronounce- ments that basic codes might be ap- proved with the advice of the Labor gaining being involved. In addition to Secretary Perkins, the board includes William Green, president {Leo Wolman, nationally known labor expert; John Prey, also of the federa- tion; Joseph Franklin of the Interna- tional Boilermakers' Union; _Sidney Hillman of the Amalgamated Clothing Workers' Union; Father Francis Haas of the Catholic Welfare Council, and Rose Schneidermann of the Women's Trade Union League. John L. Lewis, representing workers in the coal fields, appeared before the poard in opposition to the non-collective bargaining principle. It was understood that opposition | was also expressed to the code pre- I sented by the textile industry provid- {ing for & $10 a week minimum in | Southern mills and $11 in the North. Major Industries Complain. Meanwhile representatives of major | industry were complaining of the de- | mand of officials that fair practice trade covenants be limited for the present to ,ment and raise wages with no com- | pensation in the way of price or produc- | tion increase, and the American Fed- | eration of Labor announced that ap- proximately 1,000,000 men had gone back to work in factories of the Nation since March. The complaints were being filed by trade association representatives here and were described by Brig. Gen. Hugh S. Johnson, administrator, and other officers as “growing pains.” Johnson sald his staff would proceed to apply pressure for the various industries to draft their codes in order that re-em- ployment might start on a large scale at once. Meantime, plans for national recovery were focused on a meeting of the Cabi- net Advisory Board for Public Works being held today in the office of the chairman, Secretary of Interior Ickes. While Secretary Ickes and his com- | mittee were meeting Secretary of leor} Perkins went to the Commerce De- | partment, where she met members of the Labor Advisory Board, Leo Woll- man and Administrator Johnson.

FATE IS DELIBERATED MORE THAN 24 HOURS Verdict Accepts Banker's Sale of Stock to Wife as Legal Transaction. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, June 22.—Charles E. Mitchell was acquitted today on all counts in the indictment which charged him with income tax evasion. The jury, which had heard the Gov- ernment charges that Mitchell, former | chairman of the National City Bank, | had cheated the Government in 1929 and 1930 of more than $850,000 in in- come taxes, took the case at 11:25 am,, Eastern standard time, yesterday. It returned the verdict a little more than 24 hours later. The charges against Mitchell, who for many years was one of the most powerful figures in the banking world, | were, briefly, that he had illegally failed to report a payment of $666,- 666.67 from the National City Co. in 11929, and that he had made sham | stock sales to make it appear that he | had suffered such heavy income loss | that he owed no tax in 1929 and 1930. The stock sale in 1929 was to Mit- chell's wife, and the one in 1930 to |W. D. Thornton, president of the | Greene Cananea Copper Co. | The jury had been instructed that it | could convict or acquit on all the charges together, or could convict or acquit on any one charge. ‘The jury returned for instructions three times, once yesterday and twice | today. It was at the conclusion of the third appearance of the jury that the verdict acquitting Mitchell on all counts was returned. Mitchell leaped to his feet as he heard the words, “not guilty” pro- nounced in a low voice by James K. Campbell, foreman, and grabbed the hand of Max D. Steuer, his counsel. His face was flery red, his eyes filled with tears. Federal Judge Henry W. Goddard asked the jurors not to discuss the case publicly and dismissed them. “I can’t talk now—I'm too moved,” Mitchell said as the crowd pressed around him. With Steuer, he disap- peared in the ante room where he had spent the hours waiting for the verdict. NEW TRIAL GIVEN IN SCOTTSBORO CASE Patterson Death Sentence Knocked Out by Ruling in Alabama. BY the Associated Press. ATHENS, Ala., June 22.—Judge | James E. Horton today granted a mo- tion for a new trial for Heywood Pat- terson, one of nine colored men in- dicted in the Scottsboro case, setting aside the conviction with its death penalty imposed in Morgan County Cir- cuit Court April 9. Immediately after Judge Horton had announced his decision, Attorney Gen- eral Themas E. Knight, jr., asked the court to set an early date for a new trial, adding, “The State is ready at any time to begin a new trial and will do so if it pleases the court.” George W. Chamlee, sr., defense attor- ney, then asked Judge Horton if he would entertain a motion to ‘“dismiss the indictments against all these de- fendants in view of this decision.” Judge Horton replied, “Such a procedure would be improper.” Defense attorneys were jubilant. “It is a great victory,” said Osmond W. Fraenkel of New York, who recently entered the case. “There are still just judges in Alabama.” Chamlee said, “Constitutional law still prevails in Ala- ma.” CHARITY LEFT MILLIONS BY HORACE H.

Various vegetable oils were “cracked” to yield acetylene gas. Their immediate problem, the scien- tists said, was to determine the effect of these sounds upon the quality of milk. “It might be expected.” they said, “that under the sonic treatment the proteins in milk would be rendered | more easily digestible, especially for | babies. We are conducting experiments to obtain direct evidence concerning these questions and that of vitamins.” The chemical reactions produced by sound, they said, were perhaps due to a prodding into activity of the protein molecules—a “momentary kinetic effect :afix ,8s produced by high tempera- 5.’ “BRAIN TRUST” IN PARIS Ambassador Straus Makes First| Important Address Before American Club.
