Lectures Before Wednesday Clnb.

Senor Salvador de Madariaga. former Spanish ambassador to Washington, drew an entrancing picture of world unity, in a lecture to a large audience at the Wednesday Club yesterday afternoon, but he was by no means sure that his picture ever would be realized. He was certain, however, that he knew a way to that end. The Spanish statesman, who long has served at Geneva as an active figure in the League of Nations, speaks fluent English. A tlip-lomat of long experience, his platform appearance does not follow the top-hatted, frock-coated pattern of news-picture diplomacy.

Attired in a gray lounge suit, consultirg his notes practically not at all. he leaned against a small stand and seemed to chat with an audience that gave him careful attention. The speaker said that he was too close to the crisis in Spain to have a perspective of real value. He would not touch upon it and begged that no one press with him questions on that point. Old Barriers FalL De Madariaga's point, maintained throughout the hour, was that space and time, the bars, hitherto, to unity, have been wiped out by science, but that the nations have not realized the significance of the change.

Interests, he declared, are now Identical. Communication, both mental and material, has altered the face of the world. Time was that in Holland an Industry was all Dutch, in Germany German, in England English. Now, entering a great factory, raw materials are found from foreign lands, many workers are alien and even the ownership may be scattered around the world in the form of shares. This fact of common knowledge had not penetrated, in its significance, to international statesmanship.

Asked by a member of the audience whether the League of Nations, with new structure and a change of personnel, might be more effective, he said that the league never really has been tried. That there were possibilities he was certain, on a real test, despite the lamentable failure In the Italo-Abys-sinian affa and Japan's Invasion of the Asian mainand. Against Universal Tongue. Another question related to a universal language, such as Esperanto, as a peacemaker. De Madariaga thought it would be easier and better to use a ready-made language.

English or French. It would save time and the new language moreover, would inevitably be merged into one of the old ones. The real solution of the world's troubles, said the speaker, was for Its statesmen to realize that changed systems of communication, both mental and physical, had made all states, in their interests, one. The fact is known to the mind, but not to the heart. Solidarity is plainly indicated.

The fluidity of fiance, now definitely international, is available, by actual current practice, to this end. He said that the turned point came with the World War. That was not a Franco-Prussian or an Anglo-Chinese war, or a Turco-Rus-sian conflict, but a civil war of the world. It was the grim other side of his picture of a world peace.

Haw the Arguments Ban. Repealista argue that one big reason stocks are so high is that they're being held to avoid the tax. And that this adds to the danger of another boom and a crash similar that of 1929. Among those who Insist that stock prices are thus being kept up artificially are the stock brokers. They say that if people are encouraged to sell their stocks, the effect will be to diminish speculation.

Presumably the real reason tha brokers are so anxious for repeal of the capital gains tax. however. 1 that this action would tocreas their business and profits. roes of repeal, who Include Msr-riner Eccles.

but it faces a tough ONE DEALER SEIZED FOR SUNDAY SALES VIOLATION 25 GIVE SELVES UP AT KANSAS CITY IN VOTE FRAUD QUIZ The late Samuel Merwin once lived in Evanston, 111., and was related to Evanston's famed Frances Willard. Her house Is still there, marked with a bronze tablet. She was wont to refer to the place as "Heavenston" and Merwin, quite a traveler, always liked to talk about and praise it as one of the finest specimens of American suburbia. Club women have much to do with the town's municipal government and often pass unusual ordinances. I recall Merwin telling of one that did not permit dogs to enter food stores, which as a dog lover I think is eminently proper.

The owner who respects the rights of others abuses a privilege when he takes a dog to such places. Claims A. T. T. Borrows From Pension Fund and Adds Excels Interest to Overhead.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 11. U. Telephone subscribers paid in "excessive charges" ts the American Telephone Telegraph Co.

on pension fund borrowings in nine years, the Federal Communications Commission charged today. The commission attacked the company for borrowing from its employes' pension fund at 4 per cent interest and charging these borrowings against operating expenses at 6 per cent. Failure to use the higher rate In computing pension accruals between 1927 and 1935 "resulted In excessive charges to operating expenses of approximately S47.000.000,- the commission charged. "In the final cjialyses." the commission said, "the Bell pension system is supported by the telephone users and any profits of the pension fund realized by the Bell companies are eventually charged to the telephone users through excessive accruals charged to operating expenses" The commission said that If "steps are not taken to increase the pension funds by means other than the normal accruals In the relatively near future the funds of the Bell companies will be exhausted." The alleged failure of the Bell system to provide "adequate pension reserves" was considered serious In 1924 and "has grown worse since." the commission said. As an example, the commission noted the case of the Southern California Telephone Co, a Be'J affiliate, which it said on December 31.

43-vear-old carpenter. 803 North Twenty-fifth street East St. Louis. Drummor.d succumbed last night in St. Mary's Hospital, to a broken skull.

He was struck Saturday while crossing from north to south in the 2600 block of St. Clair avenue In East St. Louis, by an east-bound auto driven by Everett Anderson. 22. of Prospect Park.

An-dreson said Drummor.d stepped into CHICAGO, Jan. 11. U. The debate between University of Chicago representative and bearded students of Madison street "Hobo College" was a financial if not oratorical success, it appeared today. Director "Blackie" Williams, who borrowed a bushel basket of coal to heat the debating hall, counted S27 out of his collection hat.

He had figured, he said, that $20 would be the maximum, and had even gone so far as to warn his audience that none would leave until he got It. Officially, the debate was a draw, although Municipal Judge Edmund B. Casey, who presided with a hatchet In place of a gavel, maintained he still did not know what it was all about. The meeting was Intended as a discussion between the hangers-on of Chicago's "street of forgotten men" and University of Chicae students on the proposition, "It cant happen here." Any bookie on the street would have given 5 to 1 that the "boes" would win. but a late Influx of Chicago students, small in number, but gifted and vociferous, upset the forecast.

Fabius Man Bheridan. gnarled hobo delegate chosen to open the debate before a rostrum decked with six faded roses, screamed: There are 17.000.000 paupers in the United Slates." A voice from smoke clouds In the rear shouted. "Stick to the subject." "I am." yelled Sheridan. "Aint Judge?" Judge Casey confessed he dldnt know. Hobo Delegate Deacon" Budrnan approached the matter frankly.

"Nobody." he declared "has said anything on the subject yet so 111 make an apology for the whole thing and do what I usually do pray." The "deacon" prayerl that farm-en move their henhouses elrwer to railroad tracks, and that It rain Mulligan stew "so deep one can swim in It." The telling stroke of the university's debaters. George Messmer and Jacob Ochstein. was a song. The Judge denied the rostrum with his hatchet trying to restore order when they finished. While the audience declared the contest a draw In an oral vote, the university students claimed a "moral victory" on the grounds that they held the "bos" even despite strange surroundir-gs.

In contrast to nine last week, only one arrest was made yesterday in the drive of the prosecuting attorney's office against Sunday sales.

A second court order preventing enforcement of the state law against sales of non-necessaries on Sundays was issued Saturday, by Circuit Judge Robert J.
