~* ANTI-DIES ‘PLOT

Starnes Absolves Larrabee 0f ‘Collusion’ in Alleged ~ Use of Forged Papers.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 3 (U. P.).— A dinner given by the legislative representatives of labor's NonPartisan League and attended by six Congressmen and a university professor, appeared well on the way today to becoming a landmark in recent Washington history. It was brought to public notice by the Dies Committee, which chatged that the diners gathered Feb. 9 at the home of Gardner Jackson—the legislative representative of the C. I. Os political arm—allegedly to discuss ways- and means of discrediting the Dies Committee. Acting Committee Chairman Joe

Starnes (D. Ala.) late last night exonerated four of the six Congressmen of any “collusion or concert” in using allegedly forged documents to discredit the committee or its chairman, Rep. Martin Dies (D. Tex.). Discussed Use of Documents

Use of the documents in question,

according to Mr. Starnes, was dis-!

cussed at the dinner, and four of the Congressmen advised against it. But a week later, the allegedlyspurious letters were inserted in the Congressional record by Rep. Frank Hook (D. Mich.), one of the diners. Mr. Starnes said that. Reps. William H. Larrabee (D. Ind), John M. Coffee (D., Wash.), Robert Ramspeck (D., Ga.), and Abe Murdock (D., Utah), all had been cleared by the Committee of participation in any attempt to “smear the inquiry.” He spoke from the House floor at 11 p. m. several hours after Mr. Larrabee, Mr. Coffee and Mr. Ramspeck testified before an, executive session of the committee.

Once Enough, Larrabee Says

Rep. Larrabee said today that if he had it to do over again he would not attend any Jackson dinner” where there was talk of torpedoing the Dies Committee. As a country doctor at New Palestine for more than a quarter of a century, Dr. Larrabee answered all calls. So it was somewhat in this spirit that he agreed to join other Congressmen in a turkey dinner at the home of Mr. Jackson, he said. Rep. Larrabee declared no mention twas made in the invitation as to the nature of any discussions, but that because of Mr. Jackson’s office with the Non-Partisan League, he believed the meeting was called to discuss labor matters. He pointed out that he voted for the resolution and appropriation to continue the work of the Dies Committee. Mr. Starnes pointedly excluded both Mr. Hook and the sixth Con-gressman-member | of =the ; dinner party, Rep. Joseph E. Casey (D., Mass.)—a member of the Dies committee—in his exoneration. “Mr. Starnes’ remarks caused Mr. Casey, who listened quietly while Mr. Starnes spoke, to-ask caustically if, in the future, House members should ask permission of the Dies Committee before accepting dinner invitations. Mr. Starnes made no reply. :

L. McNary doubted that either parity payments or the surplus commodity fund would be approved. “They go hand in hand,” he said. “When ones goes down, both go down.” Senators Robert M. La Follette (Prog., Wis.), George W. Norris (Ind., Neb.) and Claude Pepper (D.,, Fla), all announced that they would fight for both parity payments and the surplus commodities money. . House Republicans voted almost solidly for every economy proposal, and against every amendment to increase the bill. The votes indicated that if the Senate increases the bill, the House will wage a prolonged fight against granting a single concession when the bill goes to conference. : The House had debated the bill since Tuesday noon, and when weary members finally passed it the following changes had been made in- the committee's recommendations: ~ 1. $47,500 000 added for payments

Mr. Hook, meanwhile, continued his efforts to withdraw the documents, as well as other charges he had made concerning Mr. Dies, from the Congressional Record. He remarked that “if I had had the knowledge that agents of the Dies Committee had, prior to publications of these records. I would never have put them in the record.” His latest attempt to withdraw the material was blocked by Rep. Frank Keefe (R. Wis.) who said he would bar their withdrawal until there has been a complete investigation of the entire controversy. Mr. Keefe particularly objected to Mr. Hook’s refusal to concede that the documents were forged.

The budget provided for the fund. 2. $126,828 added for use in dry land agriculture experiments. 3. $40,000,000 added by eliminating a provision that rural electrification funds ke borrowed from the RFC. Rep. John Taber (R. N. Y.) made a point of order against the borrowing authorization, and Rep, Clarence Cannon (D. Mo.) in charge of the bill, conceded it. The net effeet of this technical move was to give the REA a direct appropriation of $40,000,000.

Takao resigned from the Minseito Party as army leaders demanded his expulsion from the Diet because of his “slanderous” remarks on Japan’s China policy.

Delivering his first major address since announcing his 1940 candidacy, Mr. Gannett proposed that Congress should begin at once to strip the President of extraordinary powers.

IPLAN FOR CURB

OF NLRB POWER

Madden Gives Tacit Approval for Withdrawal “in A.F.L.-C. 1. 0. Cases.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 3 (U. P.).— National Labor Relations Board Chairman J. Warren Madden today

gave tacit approval to a proposal to remove the Board's authority to decide A. F. of L-C. I. O. disputes. The plan was proposed to the House NLRB Committee by Dean Lloyd K. Garrison of the University oi Wisconsin Law School, chairman of the Labor Board. Mr. Garrison told the committee that in A. F. of L.-C. I. O. disputes, the Board should not be allowed to hold an election and render decisions until both factions of labor agreed on a formula for the election and agreed to abide by the results. In the meantime, the employer would not be allowed to sign a closed shop agreement with: either faction. Mr. Madden called Mr. Garrison's suggestion a “Pontius Pilate solution of the Board's washing its hands of such cases.”

Waits Labor Reaction

“Of the various amendments suggested,” the chairman said, “Dean Garrison’s is sounder than any others. He was perfectly right in saying this is not a problem for the courts. That they would only complicate it. iy “His suggestion deserves the careful study and consideration of this committee. The reaction’ of labor groups should be followed with interest. “It may admit the solution which Congress would want to adopt.” : airman Howard W. Smith of the Committee characterized the solution as letting warring labor {factions “stew in their own grease.”

Sees Flaw in Plan

Mr. Madden, in response to questions by Rep. Arthur D. Healey (D., Mass.), opposed making it “discretionary’” with the Board to refuse factional cases. He said that in refusing to take a case the Board would “still be doing the same thing” as at present, in that it would be acting upon its judgment and would still be subjected to criticism. Labor factions, he asserted, “kick the Board regardless of what solution is made” of many disputes.

found. The Mayor said that every effort would be made to formulate a plan of action today. Mr. Jennings said he could place the men on projects as soon as the projects were provided. Since it would take some time to get new projects approved, officials planned to expand existing City, County and school projects in addition to the flood project. : Immediate action by City, County and School officials was made necessary by the refusal of township trustées to sponsor projects out of township relief funds. The trustees told Mr. Jennings they believed such a diversion of township moneys would be illegal. The Mayor called today's confer-

WPA Idle to Share Surplus Food

WPA workers who are idle because of lack of projects or bad weather will be given Federal surplus commodities for a period of 60 days, Governor M. Clifford Townsend announced today. The period will end April 1. The Governor said the plan had been prepared by Dudley A. Smith, directcr of the Unemployment Relief | Commission, the State certifying agency for WPA. : ~~ Mr. Smith estimated 50,000 WPA workers will be eligible to receive the commodities. Surplus commodities are ordinarily distributed free only to persons on direct relief. Township Trustees have been notified of the plan, Mr. Smith said.

I chase the German plane, which narrowly missed a cottage chimngy. It was the first German plane shot down on English soil since the start of the war. From various points along the coast came stories of engagements. Watchers on the Northumberland Coast saw anti-aircraft guns open fire on a German plane two miles out. The plane disappeared in the mist. | a Another German plane -darted from the mist, swept down on a big steamship anchored off the East Coast, machine gunned it from an altitude of a few yards, land flew off into the clouds. A British plane raced up, circled the steamer, and flew away. i Ambulances rushed to the shore but they were not used. Crowds on the sea front at a coast town heard machine gunning and saw a big black German plane flying low along [the coast.

“Like Streaks of Lightning”

W. M. Horne, who witnessed one of the fights, said:
