clients, Mr. Hill said, was a study of
the British labor laws, suggested by 1
Tom Girdler, chairman of Republic.
During the morning the committee ;
called Edgar S. Bow-erfind, associate
of Hill and Knowlton, to explain his ]
remark about bringing pressure on
newspapers through advertisers. The ,
remark was contained in a memoran- j
dum from Mr. Bowerfind to a Republic
official introduced late yesterday.
Somewhat shamefacedly the witness
described the statement as a ‘ mental
aberration."
Dr. Morgan yesterday topped off a day j
of sensational developments by accusing
T. V. A. counsel of seeking “misrep
resentative and misleading" evidence
for possible use in a trial in Chatta
nooga last winter when 18 power
companies attacked the constitutional
ity of T. V. A.
The case decided in favor of T. V.
A. Is now pending in the Supreme
Court on appeal.
Accuses T. V. A. Counsel.
Dr. Morgan said James Lawrence
Ply. T. V. A. general counsel, asked
engineers and consultants to make
reports which would "tend to show"
the cost of power generation in the
dam-building program was a negligible
factor and that flood control and navi
gation predominated.
This evidence, he said, “never was
submitted after I pointed out to our
counsel the injury it would cause the
professional standing of our engi
neers.”
He said E. L. Chandler, estimate en
gineer, was requested by Mr. Fly to
prepare a memorandum on the costs
for two systems of dams, one for flood
control and one for navigation, and
then to submit an estimate on the
unified T. V. A. system.
Mr. Chandler objected .such a
method would give only a “hypotheti
cal figure,” Dr. Morgan said, but Mr.
Ply insisted.
Estimates Submitted.
The engineer made a report then
that a system of navigation dams
would cost $144,000,000 and a system
of flood-control barriers $132,000,000,
Dr. Morgan said, adding that the total
of $276,000,000 was only $200,000 dif
ferent from the estimate for the uni
fied system.
“It seemed to me,” Dr. Morgan said,
“the purpose of this report was to show
there was almost no cost at all for
generating power.”
He quoted Mr. Chandler as saying
“I think this is so obviously impossible
it won’t fool any one.”
Other engineers told him, the wit
ness said, they were placed in an
“embarrassing position” by similar re
quests.
Dr. Morgan said he was not used as
a witness in the Chattanooga trial
because “they didn’t like my answers”
to a prepared set of questions.

Guatemala’s Dictator Lauded
By Dr. Hunter of Georgetoivn
DR. S. A. DULANY_HUNTER._
Students Find Gen. Ubico
Popular Because of
Intelligent Rule.
For managing a successful dictator
ship the palm should be awarded to
Gen. Jorge Ubico, who rules Guate
mala with a firm hand and actually
makes the people like it, according to
a group from Georgetown University
just returned from a study of condi
tions in Central America.
In administering a “new deal" for
Guatemala, according to Dr. S. A.
Dulany Hunter of Kenwood, Md.,
spokesman for the party, Gen. Ubico
has succeeded admirably in at least one
respect where a far better known New
Deal administration has failed to date.
“There is no unemployment in
Guatemala and. strange to say for a
Central American country, there is
practically “no poverty among the
masses,” lie summarized.
The group included seven students
sent out by tile School of Foreign
Service, in charge of Dr. Hunter, for
the purpose of “looking behind scenes
without window dressings.” They com
prised one of a number of such parties
from the school that are traveling in
foreign countries to study economic
and commercial conditions at first
hand as an actual part of their aca
demic work.
Held Endurance Record.
In Guatemala the Georgetown stu
dents found a country that formerly
held the endurance record for a one
man dictatorship. That was back In
the times of President Estra Cabrera,
whose iron-clad rule ending with his
overthrow in 1920, extended over 22
years. Since then, until Gen. Ubico
took over the presidency, the small
country has had a succession of lesser
known dictators.
Gen Ubico, described as a ‘‘short,
stocky man of Napoleonic appearance
and some of the characteristics of the
Little Corporal,” has been dictator
since 1931—a long time as figured In
Central America.
Whereas the late President Cabrera
ruled "by fear and military oppres
sion,” Dr. Hunter explained that Gen.
Ubico, a finely educated man in con
trast, rules “by intelligent planning
and a middle-of-the-road policy.”
An annual expenditure of around
$15,000,000 for highways—a huge sum
for so small a country—and reductions
of land taxes, he explained, are largely
responsible'for lack of unemployment
that is a significant resuit of
Guatemala's new deal.
Gen. Ubico is a dictator, all right,
but he has discarded the usual ' strong
arm bodyguard,” even when he min
gles with the people in the streets of
the capital, and is accompanied by a

President Lebrun had accepted the
invitation of King George VI to visit
England before his term of office ex
pires in May, 1939.
The President, accompanied by Mme.
Lebrun, probably will go to London
some time during the first three
months of next year.
Designed to Outdo II Dace.
Today's parade was planned to outdo
even Premier Benito Mussolini's
great demonstration for Chancellor
Adolf Hitler in Rome May 3. It was
considered significant that places were 1
reserved in the reviewing stands for
German and Italian military attaches.
The last such military display was
on the eve of the World War when [
King George V came to France and
declared. ‘'With troops like those a
country has nothing to fear.”
Alpine Chasseurs, the famous ' Blue
Devils” of World War fame, dusky
Spahis in their brilliant robes and
turbans. Zouaves with baggy trousers.
Republican Guards in golden helmets
were featured in the parade with
blue and khaki clad troops from the
mighty Maginot defense line on the
French-German frontier.

military guard of honor only on formal
occasions.
Witness Military Parade.
High light of the visit for the
Georgetown students was June 30, the
day of the national holiday in Guate
mala City, where the dictator staged a
grand military parade. They sat at
his invitation in the reviewing stand
and marveled, Dr. Hunter said, at the
showing made by the cadets of the
military academy.
"An American Army officer, Gen.
Victor Wales, who is a lieutenant
colonel, really, is the commandant of
the academy,” he explained. "The
cadets were fully the equal of our West
Pointers when it came to marching.
And the presence of Gen. Wales is
merely another sign of the friendly
co-operation between Guatemala and
the United States which is evidenced
in personal as well as in commercial
relations.”
Dr. Hunter is professor of Arner- '
lean history and associate in inter- |
national law’ and foreign relations. 1
He returned home pone too soon, for |
during his absence his name was an- j
nounced as a candidate for the Mary
land House of Delegates from Mont
gomery County on an independent
Democratic tax reform ticket.
The students who made the trip
were William Boyd Carnes. Walter L.
McCaddon, Charles R. Mullan. George !
E. Blanc. Howard J. Clancy, Clarence
H. Simmons, jr., and Felipe Barreda
of Lima, Peru. Mr. Carnes and Mr.
McCaddon are residents of Washing
ton. while Mr. Simmons is the son
of an attache at the American Le- ■
gal ion in Guatemala City.
Others in the party were Mrs. j
Hunter and their son, Robert Du- :

Miss Marian Gallagher, both of Wash- j

IS LAID TO FEAR
War Scare Is Now Believed
Cause, Not Only Dumping
by Jews.
By JOHN T. WHITAKER.
By Radio to The Star.
BERLIN, July 21.—The week end
slump on the Berlin Stock Exchange,
though values have now rerovered, has
an unusual political significance in
the opinion of informed observers who
now believe that Germany faces a
near panic.
Market values have been weak ever
since the government, in March, re
stricted the system of financial Indus
try as well as the 4-year plan with
the acceptance of credit and treasury
bills.
Efforts to slow up credit inflation
came at a moment when industry was j
reaching the end of Its productive
capacity in the law of diminished re
turns which operated against it.
Then, just as industry was finding
It difficult to dispose of its paper—no
longer rediscountable by the Reich
bank—Economics Minister Col.-Gen.
Hermann Goering suddenly announced
new anti-Jewish decrees in April.
This led some quarters to dump at any
price and the market was further de
pressed. When this downward trend
culminated in this week’s gray Mon
day. bankers felt that it was an in
evitable result of Nazi economics and
selling by Jews and others who had
anticipated the dislocation which
Jewish selling would cause.
Observers now believe, however, that
another factor—fear of war—oper
ated in a market which still has a
slight tendency to reflect something
of popular feeling, even in a totali
tarian regime where prices are fixed,
dividends are drafted and labor is
conscripted. J,
There was, in fact, a complete crisis
of confidence over the week end, ex
plained by two developments:
1. Slow realization among Germans
that Reichsfuehrer Adolf Hitler was
checkmated on May 21f with the
Czechs mobilizing suddenly, backed by
Britain and Fiance.
2. Backed by Britain. France offered
the first armed opposition aggressive
pan-Germanism had yet encountered.
It takes time in a censorship coun
try for the public to understand gov- j
eminent reverses, and when informa
tion trickles through slowly and sur
reptitiously, there is an understandable
tendency to exaggerate its significance, j

occupying the Rhirttland and taking I
Austria. Hitler at last has attempted
something in his Czech ambition which
will bring mobilization in France and

^1E D\/EC Affliction of Modern
I ^ E1% ? EJ Living and Eating
Conditions of nerves are often
manifested by—
Neuritis, Nervous Fatigue, Neuralgia,
Nervous Insomnia, Numerous
Muscular Pains
Millions of people are sufTerine from the
above nerve conditions and don't know
what to do about it. Yet science says
that the vast majority of these sufferers
COULD have a healthy nervous system.
The difficulty, however, lies largely, if not
entirely in the way we eat Much of the
rood available to us toaay has been robbed
of the very substances we need most—
the substances that are necessary
to sustain a healthy nervous system.
Food has changed a great deal since
grandfather's time. Certain changes in
soil and in methods of agriculture, to
gether with vast changes in the wav we
nandle. process and distribute foods todav.
have contributed to the robbing of our
food supply of certain highly important
and vital substances.
In addition, the fact that most of us live
under a very high pressure iS all the more
reason why we must provide an adequate
amount of food for “starved'' nerves,
ror. with the constantly increasing de
mands on our nervous system, it becomes
a question whether or not we can get
enough nerve food out of our regular diet
if *t were not robbed, as it now is. of
the vital substances required by the nerves
But this is not all. When we are confront
ea with a condition of “nerves.” it means
that some damage has already been done.
Therefore, we must seek some highly con
centrated source of nerve food, or the antl
neuritic factor, as scientists rail it. This
all-important anti-neuritic factor is found
in rich concentration in NEURAL-AID. an
inexpensive DRUGLESS preparation which
gives amazing results in most cases.
