SENATE NEAR VOTE
ON TRADE PACTS
Administration Managers
Believe President’s Power
Will Be Extended.
By the Associated Press. ,
The Senate neared a vote today on
the reciprocal trade act after Senator
Borah, Republican, of Idaho declared
It burdened American agriculture with
foreign competition. •
Asked by Senator Harrison. Demo
crat. of Mississippi, a champion of
the program, if he thought the Cana
dian treaty had seriously affected
American cattle prices. Borah said
yesterday: .
"If enough cattle came in to help
the Canadian farmer, enough came
in to hurt the American ’farmer."
Although his protest joined those
of Senators Vandenberg, Republican,
of Michigan, and Capper, Republican,
of Kansas, and other leading Re
publicans. administration managers
held to their belief the Senate would
pass the bill extending the President's
power to make such treaties.
Earlier Senator Austin, Republican,
of Vermont attacked the trade act as
a measure “centralizing governmental
functions in the hands of the Ex
ecutive.” He said it was the duty of
Congress to fix taxes and ratify
treaties, but that this power had been
handed to the President. *
Borah conceded that onlf 156,000
head of Canadian cattle entered the
country in 1936, and added “it may
be true there was no permanent or
universal injury to the domestic cat
tle market,” but he asked, “why admit
any when we had a surplus in this
country?”
“The American market belongs ex
clusively to the American farmer to
the full extent of his ability to supply
it,” he added.
Borah asserted the only “sound”
trade program was one which brought
into the country only those things
which are not produced here and
which goes beyond is no longer on a
sound principle ot international
trade. '
He declared America's favorable
trade balance had dropped $231,
000.000 to $34,*00,000 between 1935
and 1936.

Tax Assessment
Of $129,960 Levied
Against 6Pauper99
By the Associated Press.
An income tax assessment of $129.
960 has been levied against Joseph
Rose. New York ' pauper” who was
found living on home relief while he
possessed a hidden fortune in dia- j
monds. the Board of Tax Appeals has
announced.
The Government action followed
disclosures which resutled when the
64-year-old former diamond merchant
accused his friend. Louis Gorelick. of
taking from him $250,000 in gems.
Police investigating Rose's charges
discovered in startling sequence that:
1. Rose had drawn $384 in home
relief funds in Brooklyn during 1936.
2. That he had more than $250,000
in diamonds hoarded in several safety
deposit boxes in New York and New
Jersey.
Rose said he assumed the role of
a pauper because he feared his wife,
from whom he had become estranged,
might attemprt to attach his wealth.
As a result of the police investiga
tion Rose was arrested on charges of
defrauding the Home Relief Bureau,
Gorelick was released and sued Rose
for defamation of character and Mrs.
Rose announced her intention to press
charges of non-support against her
husband.
CHANGE IfUOURI
Direct Strong Resolution to
Garner and Heads of
Committees.
The preachers’ meeting of the Wash
ington district of the Methodist Epis
copal Church today was on record
against President Roosevelt's proposal
to increase the number of Supreme
Court justices.
In a strongly worded resolution di
rected to Vice President Oarner and
the chairmen of the Senate and House
Judiciary Committees, the clergymen
voiced "vigorous protest’’, against the
President’s plan, contending it "would
repudiate the fundamental principles
of the Constitution.”
The resolution, adopted Monday, was
drawn up by a committee composed of
Rev. Frank W. Collier, professor of
philosophy at American University;
Rev. William A- Haggerty of Rosedale
Methodist Episcopal Church, and Rev.
Ralph D. Smith. Woodside Episcopal
Church. • f
It urged the Washington Federation
cf Churches, with which the organiza
tion. comprising clergymen of 60
churches in the Capital and vicinity,
is affiliated, to ask other member bodies
to express opposition to the court re
vamping plan "and to petition the Con
gress to seek changes as may be nec
essary by plain, direct appeal to the
people."
Any method of changing the funda
mental law by indirection, the resolu
tion stated, "is a violation of democ
racy, and thus is politically reprehen
sible. a betrayal of trust and, hence,
profoundly immoral.”
The text of the protest follows:
"The message of President Franklin
D. Roosevelt to the Seventy-fifth Con
gress. with a bill attached, proposing
an increase in the number of Justices
of the Supreme Court, calls for vig
orous protest by all Americans who
prize our democratic heritage enjoyed
for over 150 years.
“We, therefore, the members of the
Preachers’ Meeting of the Washing
ton District of the Methodist Episco
pal Church, make our protest on the
ground that what. the President asks
for would repudiate the fundamental
principles of the Constitution, namely,
the threefold division of powers—ex
ecutive. legislative and judicial—which
safeguard our system of checks and
balances. In this American plan, the
powers are co-ordinate and independ
ent. and the verdict of history is that
Individual liberty Is thus best pre
served.
"Only an honest, independent Ju
diciary can protect the liberties of all
the people, especially in times of emo

tional stress, against coercion on the
part of the executive or legislative
branches of the Government, or both.
"The fundamental law, as embodied
in the Constitution, has been changed
in the past, and may be changed in
the future; but it can be properly
changed only by direct appeal to the
people, as provided in the Constitu
tion Itself. Any method of change
by indirection is a violation of de
mocracy, and thus is politically rep
rehensible, a betrayal of trust, and
hence, profoundly immoral.
“If there be a present need for
change, the people should be appealed
to directly. No mandate has been
given by the people for what the
President asks. To grant his re
quest would be a betrayal of trust by
the Congress and a surrender of its
legislative function. This may pos
sibly result in Irreparable harm to
America, to democracy and thus to
civilization.
"And we request the Washington
Federation of Churches to call upon
other affiliated bodies to protest
through the federation the action of
the President, and to petition the
Congress to seek changes as may be
necessary by plain, direct appeal to
the people. Thus the desired end can
be attained without illegally hamper
ing the Supreme Court, the constitu
tional bulwark of the personal, politi
cal and religious liberties of the Amer
ican people."
PROPOSES HOLIDAY
Congress today had received a pro
posal to declare the birthday of
Thomas Jefferson a legal holiday.
Representative John J. Boylan, New
York City Democrat, introduced a
joint resolution declaring the birthday,
April 13. a legal holiday of the
character of other legal holidays.
The resolution also would authorize
the President to request Governors
of the States to take action “to bring
about observance.” ,
