NEW DEAL SCORED INTALK BY MILLS Interference Charge Against Administration Countered by Barkley. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, June 28.—A sharp in- dictment of the New Deal administra- tion was uttered last night by Ogden Mills in an open forum discussion, and ‘was answered by Senator Barkley of Kentucky with the assertion that ad- ministration critics recognized only the “sacred policy of negation.” Mills, former Secretary of the Treas- ury under the Republican Hoover regime, and Senator Barkley, a dyna- | mic defender of the Democratic ad- ministration, discussed the question of recovery at a town hall meeting under auspices of the League for Political Education. “I challenge those who complain that we have robbed the people of their liberty to point to a single example not based on public welfare,” said Bark- ley. “I challenge those who weep over the destruction of the States and the demise of the Constitution to indicate where we have stabbed it and where 3t is buried. * * * “But we are told by those who suf- fer from a sort of intellectual im- perviosity that liberty has departed | from our midst and that the Constitu- | tion is deader than the dodo, becaus2 ‘Thomas JefTerson is supposed to have remarked ‘that government is best which governs least” He also said once that the Constitution ought to be revised every 30 years in order to keep it up to date.” Mills, first dealing with the efforts of advocates of planned economy to ef- fect recovery which he said had failed, asserted that the so-called econom war-cycle of depression had run i course and the country—if left alone— was ready to go ahead itself. “The trouble is that, whereas eco- nomic uncertainties have vanished, political uncertainties cast an ever- | lengthening shadow,” he asserted.

His trip to Italy had more the character of an errand of mercy than that of a diplomatic negotiation. Eden pleaded with Il Duce, on behalf of the British government, to abandon for the sake of Italy the Ethiopian adventure. He used his powers of persuasion to prove to Mussolini that a war in Ethiopia. if not completely successful, might mean the downjfall of fascism, and that would mean endless complica- tions in Europe. Furthermore, he added, there is no telling what may happen to the domination of North Africa by the Western powers if Emperor Selassie succeeded in de- Jeating a first-class power like Italy. Mussolini remained adamant. a king. a dictator “can do no wrong.” | And once he has embarked on an adventure it is impossible for him to draw back; the penalty might be| too heavy. Like | cast the complications which may | result from any kind of trouble in Italy. The entire Western European prob- lem, which is for the dormant, might explode again. * x x M To this cheerless expose Mussolini replied that he cannot stop what he| has already started. His prestige within and without the country at stake. But if the British govern- ment is so genuinely concerned about the fatal results the Ethiopian cam- | paign may, produce it should use its influence with Emperor Hailie Selassie and induce him to accept the Italian protectorate. This the British govern- ment cannot do because of the com- plicated situation in Ethiopia. * x % x Selassie is the Emperor of the coun- try, and his word is law as long as he upholds complete independence of Ethiopia. But the day he decides to play into the hands of the Ital- ians, or of any other European power, | and sells his country's mdependence‘ for some personal advantage, he is through. For this reason it will be impossible for any Western nation to induce him to bow to Mussolini's wishes, unless II Duce changes his tune and is satisfied with a few eco- nomic advantages.

SHIP SUBSIDY BILL FUTURE S DUBIOUS Senate Shoals Await After Measure Gets Through House, 194-186. By the Assoclated Press. A doubtful reception in the Sen- ate today awaited legislation passed by the House to provide Government subsidies for ship construction and operation. The bill barely squeezed through the House yesterday, by a vote of 194 to 186. Democratic ranks in that chamber were split wide open by the proposal, 139 voting for it and 136 against. Senator Copeland, Democrat, of New York, co-author of the legisla- tion, feared that adverse sentiment would not permit passage in the Sen- ate at this time. He withdrew a motion to bring up the measure im- mediately, but expressed belief that it would be approved eventually after members have had time for further study and he has had an opportunity to talk with them. e ’76 HEROES TO CRUISE Annual Outing Will Be Made on Board S.

By the Associated Press. The Wagner labor disputes bill, hailed by the American Federation of Labor as “labor’s magna carta” and | denounced by some industrial leaders | as a breeder of strikes, moved toward the statute books today in an atmos- phere charged with strike talk. While this measure guaranteeing labor’s right to bargain collectively lay on President Roosevelt's desk, await- ing his signature, a new crisis devel- oped in contract negotiations between the United Mine Workers and soft coal operators of the Appalachian Situation Complicated. The miners are seeking a 30-hour week and a 10 per cent increase in pay. The operators want them to continue working 35 hours a week at present wage rates. A walkout scheduled for June 17 was delayed at the President’s request to give Congress time to pass the Guffey-Snyder coal stabilization bill. But the present extension of 1934-5 contracts will expire Sunday at midnight and the Guffey-Snyder | bill has not been passed.

LANSING AID OFFERED. Prosecutor’s Wife Niece of Late Mrs. William H. Yawkey. LANSING, Mich.,, June 28 (#).— Attorney General Harry S. Toy, whose wife is a niece of the late Mrs. William H. Yawker, offered the full resources of his office today to Detroit police in- vestigating the slaying of Howard Carter Dickinson, New York attorney. who was in Detroit as a representative of the Yawkey estate. Reports were current here that Dickinson was in Lansing Wednesday. but confirmation could not be im- mediately obtained. Toy said he had talked with Charles Evans Hughes, jr., cousin of the slain man, but that Hughes was unable to advance any thecry regarding the motive for the killing. The attorney general said his wife had received a share in the Yawkey estate. up.

These are: (1) The Italian troops are already suffering from all kinds of tropical diseases. Once they get into Ethiopia proper they will have to cope with tropical diseases many of which are unknown even to the most experi- enced bacteriologists. Under these circumstances the Italian troops will have to fight not only the Ethiopians but unconquerable diseases, which will deplete the Italian ranks. (2) The Ethiopians are fearless and foolhardy fighters. Neither the Italian airplanes nmor the Italian artillery and gas frighten them. They have a tradition of 2,000 years of independence and cannot be easily conquered even if Mus- solini’s batallions reach Addis Ababa. Quite the contrary, the Italian problem will become more complicated if the army conquers the few mud huts which form the Ethiopian capital. (3) The economic and financial situation of Italy is bad, and unless the Ethiopians can be brought into submission before next Winter the Italian government will suffer. On the other hand, a setback, which is not at all out of the ques- tion, can disturb the foundation of the Fascist state.
