Earlier, Rep. Harry B. Sauth-

that all phases of national de-
fense be incorporated in a single

Sauthoff argued that it
"archaic” to discuss what meth-

it would be better to coordinate
all branches of military service in
one department, with one congres-

appear for questioning next weak

The committee adjourned
Dallas hearing yesterday after
touching briefly on land leases
and spending two days guessing
at the size of the bank accounts
of McCraw, and has former law
partner, Assistant U. S District
Attorney General Tom C. Clark,
of Dallas.
McCraw, before leaving for
Washington to uphold Texas’
rights In protest against a reso-
lution giving submerged oil lands
along the Gulf coast to the federal
government, demanded that he
be allowed to testify before the,
committee.
In the closing testimony yes-
terday, Clark denied that he split
fees with McCraw while he was
an assistant in the Attorney Gen-
eral’s office at Austin.
foreign intervention is a
means for bringing about ‘he
peaceful solution of the minorities
problem and general nolitical ap-
peasement. The basis of universal
peace and international law em-
bodies the principle of non-inter-
vention in the internal affairs of
nations. Abandonment of that
principle would be the end of
law and order and the beginning
of revolution. It would dis-
organize the relations between
states and ultimately lead to
chaos in international relations.”
Disregarding the 3,500,000
Czechoslovakia citizens of German
birth—'>0 per cent of whom are
sympathetic to the Nazis—there
is a passionate attachment to tlie
tenents of democracy in this na-
tion. More particularly, it is an
attachment to the American
conception of democracy.

Czechs have made the Central

ways are clustered around them.
I learned that the government
is watching with considerable
anxiety the change in the British
cabinet, fearing it means a weak-
ening cf British moral support
for Czechoslovakia in event of
I German pressure There have
been significant signs in the last
few months that Great Britain’s
attitude is changing ami that
London would like to see Czecho-
slovakia show a more complaint
attitude toward Hitler. Some ob-
servers here interpret these signs
to mean that the British govern
: ment thinks if Germany’s spher
of influence is permitted to ex-
pand eastward through Danuh:an
Europe, Berlin’s demands for re-
turn of American colonies would
be less insistent.

The Senate resolution author-
itizing such a suit would enable
the government to take possession
of the fields for creation of naval

for America’s fighting fleets.
"Because of the political situa-
tion in California and in my dis-
trict, I hope the government, will

“t would like to find out who

who has a right to take oil front

‘‘we’ll take ours and see how

Scott testified that efforts have
been made for seven years to per-
suade Long Beach to bring suit
! to determine whethere persons
drilling for the oil have title. He
explained the harbor had been giv-

The government has recognized ;
power to bredge the sea bottom
for purposes of navigation, he
said, and accordingly has power
to take oil to maintain the navy.

seabed was transferred to this

| “I am informed and I believe,”
j Maverick said, “that the United

Maverick spoke after a group
