BY DE WITT MACKENZIE. | Secretary of State Hull's efforts to secure European peace have gone much further than his recent testi- before the House Appropria- tions Committee indicates. Hull told the committee he had rec- ommended to a certain foreign states- man that Europe follow the program adopted by the Pan - American Peace Conference at Buenos Aires. Since he has § said that much, | it is possible to| disclose he has | been working | overtime in an underccver effort to impel Europe to save herself. He is trying to inspire the Old | World to tackle | her dangerous problems from the standpoint of his “eight pillars of | peace,” laid down at Buenos Aires. | Whether he realizes it or not, his come close to those of “practical religionists,” like the Ox- Secretary Hull. ford Group, which is undertaking a | spiritual world revolution with the | ethical teachings of the Sermon on the Mount as ammunition. | Talks to Diplomats. | | Hull has been laboring persistently | with the Washington Tepresentatives | of foreign governments, mixing pleas with reproofs and stern warnings.

It is said when Hull encounters the | argument that some specific prob- | lem must be solved before the gen- | eral proposition of peace and pros- perity can be tackled, he replies in | effect: “Stuff and nonsense.

To Avoid Entanglement. Britain and France are said to be | turning in his direction; the Economic | Council of the League of Nations has been won over; 15 countries, including | France, Holland, Sweden, Belgium and Brazil, already have accepted hisY program of peace through trade. A | trade agreement with England is| understood to be in prospect. ! All this does not mean that the | United States intends to get mixed up | in European affairs. She definitely intends to stay away from entangle- | | ments, but she naturally is vitally | interested in seeing world affairs | | brought back to normal. | As Indication that the United | States has not abandoned hope of general disarmament or some limita- tion, Norman Davis, the State De- partment’s disarmament scout, is leaving shortly for Europe to put his ear to the ground again. It is said his mission is merely to inquire into possibilities. The belief is expressed in some well- informed quarters that President Roosevelt would be prepared to initiate another disarmament or economic conference, if he were given a rea- sonable basis for such a move. At | present, no such basis exists. | DEAD IN ALEXANDRIA| Alexandria Widow Left City at | Outbreak of Civil ‘War. BY a Staff Correspondent of Ths Star.

BY the Assoclated Press. Informed officials said yesterday President Roosevelt may step in to iron out differences between the Treasury and railroad interests over & projected new rall pension system. The plan, adopted voluntarily by WOODW 10™11™ F AND G STREETS C., rail management and labor at Mr., Roosevelt’s request, was challenged by the Treasury on the ground that its taxes on employers and employes were too low to meet pension outlays. If income failed to level up with outgo, officials said, the difference would come out of general govern- ment funds. Under the plan, taxes starting at 2.5 per cent on both employers’ pay- rolls and employes’ wages wouid in- crease gradually to 3.5 per cent on each in 1949. The management-labor understand- ing provides that both would back the plan in Congress. It would super- sede the 1935 retirement legislation now under court attack by the roads. Treasury and Railroad Retirement Board officials plan to meet this week to go over Treasury objections to the taxing provisions.

MONDAY, MARCH 22, ARD e 1937. Treasury officlals indicated they would insist on the full 3.5 per cent tax of the present act. Chairman Murray W. Latimer of the Retirement Board sald Treasury suggestions would be carefully studied in an effort to compose some plan agreeable to all. Latimer and other Retirement Board members previously had ap- proved the graduated levy starting at 2.5 per cent, however, and man- agement and labor representatives have said this tax “will carry the load.” Unless tne conference brings about an understanding, officials said the President probably will choose between the two tax rates. Explaining the Treasury stand, suthorities said it could approve no program calling for expenditures in excess of those provided in Mr. Roose- velt's budget. = »OT é’f&?v/zs_ “Pending instructions to the con- trary from the President,” one spokes- man said, “we must be sure that adequate revenues are provided to | meet any expenditures added onto the budget.” H.C.
