News Review of Curre nt Events the World Over Sugar Lobby Gift Story Under Investigatio n, Senator Davis Promising Help-Lam e Duck Sessions · Probably Will Be Abolished. By EDWARD W. PICKARD I ~ THE closing days ot the session of congress the senate ran into whu t gave some promi~e of de· veloping Into another lobbying scandal. l\1 r. Borah read to it an article in a New York newspaper wh ich said In effect, that a sendtm·, during his former occupancy of Senator a high official posiJ. J. Davia tlon, had recei vet! $100,000 trom the president of a domestic sugar company In return for his agreement to lobby for a high sugar tarltf. Senator Nye ot North Dakota bad already alluded to the story, de· plorlng the fact that such an unsub1 etantlated report had been given pub!uclty and credence. Replying to quest1ons, Nye admitted that tile campaign expenditure committee, of which he is f chairman, had come upon the report 1 of a $100,000 gift to a senator, had Incompletely Investigated It and had turned over a memorandum to the committee on lobbying. lie said he thought the ser:ator In question was entitled to have an Inquiry made and the truth established by the lvbby committee. which Is headed by Senator Caraway of Arlmnsas. At the instance of Senatm Rorah, supported by Senator Ho!Jinson of Arkansas, the senate lnstru<·ted the lobby committee to in\·estlgate the story. Immediately thereafter Senator James J. Davis of Pennsylmuia, former secretary of labor, announced ofT the senate floor that he stood ready to appear before the lohby committee at any time and that be would assure the committee of the presence of several witnesses whom iL woulll degJre to hear. Among the witnesses he nam('d was Bror G. Dahlberg of Chi· . cago, president ot the Southern Sugar company. Mr. Davis declared he would assist the committee in investigating the charges "to the bottom." Appearing later before the lobby committee, Senator DnYis declared the charg~>s, it directed at him, were absolutely tul~e. No Inferiority Complex About Daniel Webster Untloubtl.'dly the acceptance of Daniel Webster·s greatness by his contemporaries was due in part to hi!'! own consciousness o! it, and his skill in imposing his conception ot himself on others. l.'ven as a poor boy at Dartmouth college he had a passion tor clothes. For great oratorical occasions he always wore a bright blue coat with brass buttons, and a buff waistcoat. There Is ll)()re than a suspicion that he stage managed his entrances and exits. Claude Moore li'uess, in his biography, "Daniel 'Vebster," quotes a Dartmouth graduate who remarked that "In the political processions ot his youth, he never saw 'Yebster except marchln~ alone in a hollow square, and that without any plan· nlng on the part of the authorities In char~~>."' Like oth~>r actors, he ne~>ded hiR audi~>nce. While Emerson communed with the infinite through his diary, "'~>hster thought of himSf'!! in t~>rms of public appearance. Webster directed his deathbed scene with a formality such as attends the puRRin~ of a cardinal or pope. After his dying oration be Japf'ed into drowsineRl", but revived to inquire: ''Have 1-wife, son, doctorR, friE.'nrlR, are you all here?-have I, on thif; occasion, said anything unworthy of Daniel Webf;ter?"-Rob ert Morse Lovett in the New Republic.

The reaction against my proposal to mul>e it 'unlawful' for any legislath·e, min· lsteriul, or judicial officer to appoint any person rela:ed to him when the pay is to come out of public funds has been most extraordlnnry."

J., who held that the amendment should have been ratified b) state conventions Instead of by state legislatures. This decision was reversed, the opinion being written by Justice Owen D.

In a case appealed from l\Iichlgan, the Supreme court held that the severe penalties of the Jones "fh·e and ten" law are not appli<'able to conviction for possession ot liquor. RILE the W ference on connar.:otlcs was in progress in Washington, word came that Joseph C. Grew, American ambassador to Turkey, was getting results there In the fight to suppress the Illegal expcrtatlon of the drugs from that country. Mr. Grew made vigorous Ambassador representations to the J. C. Grew government at Angora and brought about the sealing ot the three big drug factories of Istanbul with their entire stocks, to be effective until the factories present documents attesting the amounts of production and exportation. Drug exporting from Turk~>:v to countries such as the 'Cnited States, which do not allow um·estricted entry of narcotics, is henceforth expected to be impossible, as a government officfal has been attached to each factory to control vroductiou nnd exportation. Factories must report to the government e,·ery 24 hours the nmount of raw material purchased and the amount of production. The director of the Japanese factory in Istanbul says the new order Is so severe that his factory prohahly will be forced to cease functioning. King AI· T IIOOGH fonso of Spain \ told American correSJJOndents that all was calm In his country now and that danger of a revolution had passed, Admiral Juan Aznar, the new premier, was not finding the sailing weather especially fine. This was mainly b~cause Admiral the national executive Juan Aznar committee of the So· cialist party and the labor union decided to boycott the national elections and co-operate fully with the Republican reYolutlonary committee. This determination was so forcible that some of the moderate l~>a<lers among the Socialists resigned from the committee, their places being filled with real reyolutionists. These resignntions ended the government's dream of splitting the revolutionary ranks by dh·orcing the Socialists and their 300,000 workers with their terrible weapon of a general stt"ike from the purely Repuhliran element with their backing anNng the bourgeoisie and friendly soldiery.
