tary of state. Secretary Roper learned of it from a source outside | his Department. In the first furious heat of his | amazement, it is reported, he wrote a strongly worded letter of considerable length to Mr. Roosevelt, submitting his resignation. Not alone did he oppose moving this important bureau from his Department, it is understood, but he also expressed shock that the attempt to do this was being carried on without consulting him. The plan had gone so far, it is understood, that Mr. Welles had submitted to the President the draft of a bill to authorize the shift. Secretary Roper showed his first letter to two or three close friends, and finally was persuaded not to send it. He then wrote shorter and in much but still asserting that bill were passed he felt value as Secretary of would be at an end. What the President would do in this situation was unknown today, but it appeared likely that Secretary Roper had spiked the transfer for the time being, at least. The Bureau's function is to promote American trade abroad, report on foreign trade and manufacturing of interest to American business, compile and publish foreign trade statistics and to investigate trade restrictions and regulations abroad in relation to American commerce.

WASHINGTON, May 14, — In- |
| formed sources said today that | Vice President Garner and PostI master General Farley had blocked | plans to nominate former Interior | Undersecretary Charles West to the | $15,000-a-year Controller of Currency’'s post. Earlier this week, persons close to the White House, had said that Mr. West was slated for the job vacated by J. F. T. O'Connor and that his nomination would be sent to the Senate by President Roosevelt probably within a few days. Publication of this plan was said to have surprised Mr. Garner, Mr. Farley and ‘Treasury Secretary Henry Morgenthau Jr., who were said to have had a different understanding. The three of them, informants said, told the White House that the choice of Mr. West would be contrary to pledges made to Mr. O’Connor when he left in April to campaign for the Democratic gubernatorial nomination in California. Mr. O'Connor was assured then, { they said, that Marshall R. Diggs of | Dallas, would be permitted to remain as acting Controller of the Currency through the summer. According to Mr. O'Connor's friends, he had asked for this assurance for two reasons: One, that Mr. Diggs was familiar with Mr. O’Connor’s program for the liquidation of the assets of closed national banks: two, that by leaving the post unfilled it would leave the impression that the Administration still had confidence in Mr. O'Connor and was keeping the job {open for him. | Where this arrangement broke |down was a matter of gossip in { Washington, but usually reliable | sources contended that Mr. Roosevelt had not given definite assur[ances to Mr. West's sponsors that he would be named. Mr. Roosevelt said at his press | conference yesterday that he had reached no decision yet on the proposed appointment. Secretary of the Treasury Mor- | genthau has said publicly that Mr. | West does not bear his endorse- | ment. Mr. West resigned yesterday as | Interior Undersecretary after a stormy feud with Interior Secre- | tary Ickes.

Government Radio
Becomes Big Issue By THOMAS L. STOKES Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, May 14. A major issue has suddenly developed here over proposals in Congress for a Government-owned and controlled radio station to counteract German and Italian propaganda in Latin America. Commercial broadcasters are
alarmed. They see the project as an opening wedge which might lead eventually to general Government operation of radio. The proposals for a Government station have slept long in Congressional pigeonholes, but have finally come to life in Committee hearings. Two developments, one international, the other domestic, have contributed to the renewed activity. American officials in charge of foreign trade have long Jooked askance at the inroads of other nations, particularly Germany, in our South American markets. Germany’'s trade campaign has been abetted by cleverly devised shortwave radio programs fed to Central
‘land South Americasn 24 hours
a day. Brazil Plot Increases Talk
The possible political effects of the German and Italian propaganda | have also come under consideration, | as a result of such Fascist movements as the one which led to an
abortive revolution in Brazil this |
week. Domestically, President Roosevelt and his New Dealers are resentful of newspaper opposition to his administration, and they have accordingly put increasing reliance on the radio. In any event, proposals now before Congress, if enacted, would not provide a station here until after this Administration went out of office. No one sees any chance of a bill passing at this session of Congress. Mr. Roosevelt has not slated his position on the Government station. Reports from the War, Navy and Interior departments approving project, which were submitted last year, said that it was in accord with the President's program. In some quarters this has been interpreted as meaning merely that the expenditure proposed was in accord with the budget program, but others think it may have more significance. Anxiously awaited now is the recommendation of special interdepartmental committee, headed by Chairman Frank R. McNinch of the Federal Communications Commission, which after two months of work has completed a report for submission to the President in the next few days. Though carefully guarded, rumors are current that this report will favor a Government station, It is assumed that the President will make the report public and submit it to Congress. One hearing, on a bill sponsored by Senators McAdoo (D. Cal) and Chavez (D. N. M.), has already been held by an Interstate Commerce Subcommittee. On Monday the House Naval Affairs Committee will begin hearings on a measure sponsored by Rep. Emanuel Celler (D. N. Y), and on Wednesday the Senate subcommittee will resume its hearings.
Eccles Blames New Deal
‘Timing’ for Recession (Editorial, Page 10)
ATLANTIC CITY, N. J, May 14 (U. P.).—Marriner S. Eccles, Federal Reserve Board chairman, told the New Jersey Bankers Association last night that the Government’s mistakes in deficit financing were partly responsible for the present depression. One of those mistakes, he said, was in the “timing” of the soldiers’ bonus payments, which he said helped to create an “inflationary psychology.” “The greatest difficulties in dealing with the problem of definite spending and of management of public debt,” he said, “seems to me to be problems of correct timing.

questions as existing in a vacuum. We are forced to take cognizance of them. “In order to avod the resorting to force, it is the layman's duty to reconcile opposing extremes in the spirit of fair play. “Tne laymen of the Unitarian Church have this great responsibility to put into effect the nautral logic of their religion. ‘The only alternative to democracy's solution of our problems is the way of Fascist or Communist dictatorships, and these we must avoid.” The Rev. Mr. Petrie charged the modern world is “victimized by scientific and critical inhibitions, which deny the soul. “Modern man sets himself in a position against himself when he frustrates the natural religious emotions by critical inhibitions In an age of increasing complexity and specialization, We are becoming artificial and getting away from the simple fundamental as man to man. In our worship of modernity we are looking upon religion more critically. “While analysis and criticism have their place they must not impede the reaction of the whole man | to the totality of the universe.
Man's Share Cited
“The highest product of the universe is man. Since We are persons, we must act as humans, not as specimens in a laboratory. Mr. Howe said: “Most of the men were willing as individuals to help whenever they could but because of the lack of a unified body, their work has not been as effective as it might have been. Dr. Frederick M. Eliot, president of the American Unitarian Association, sounded the same note when he said recently that ‘without the organized strength of its men, a parish church is crippled and ineffective; and the same is true of
the denomination’.” “I don’t pretend to know the | answer as to why more men do not |
they don't like the minister personally. Others may feel | that he doesn’t ‘come down to earth’ in his sermons and a third group doesn't want to hear those things talked about on Sunday with which they come into contact everyday in the newspapers, on the radio and in conversations with their fel-low-men. Habit Plays Part “T should like at this time to remove the burden from the shoulders of the ministers and put the matter squarely up to the Unitarian layman. “It seems to me that church-go-ing is primarily a matter of loyalty—call it habit if you like—which impels you to set aside each Sunday morning for church as a matter of course, without the attempt to manufacture alibis for not going. Following luncheon at the church, the Rev. Everett Moore Baker, Boston, American Unitarian Association executive vice president, this afternoon was to lead a round-table discussion on “Unitarian laymen and Churchmanship.” Mr. Howe was to speak again at 4 p. m. on “Chapter Programs.” The convention banquet is to be held at the Hotel Antlers at 6:30 p. m, when the “Laymen's League Objectives” are to be outlined by Frank W. Scott, Boston, League president,

HAMMOND, May 14 (U.P). — Several defeated candidates reportedly are pooling their resources to demand a general recount of Democratic votes east in the Lake County primary election last week.

The ballots were found in three Gary precincts as the ballot boxes were being stored until the November election.
