While Presl- dent Charles n Van Hlso of the Uni versity of Wisconsin was testifying bo foro the house commerce committee Rep- lescntattvo Stevens of Minnesota, rank ing republican of the committee, de elated the administration Clayton bill for on Interstate trade commission was un constitutional In many respects. No member of the commlteo defended tho bill, which was framed by Chairman Clayton and others after conferences with President Wilson. Tho discussion which followed seemed to Indicate that a new Ull might be drawn. Dr. Van lllse, saying the courts had been too slow In ticatlng Industrial prob lems, proposed that a commission should have broad power, net on Its own Initia tive without waiting for complaint or legislation, and that Its findings of fact should bo accepted as final, with certain stipulations. Dr. Van lllse urged that a commission bo empowered to Investigate tho affair of any concern so large as to have as sumed a public Interest or likely to co operate with other firms In controlling tho market. He contended that under the present conditions, the country was as helpless beforo great Industrial corpora tions as It was beforo railroads and food manufacturers came under tho control of the Interstate Commerce commission and the pure food law. "If there had been an Interstate trade commission when tho United States Steel corporation was organized, with a great quantity of capitalization not represented by Investment, would It later have been allowed to turn In 3WO.0W.O0O from Its dividends to make tho aqua purfi" sub stance?" asked President Van lllse. "The problem to bo met Is fair distribution of profits between stockholders and wage earners. Co-operation Is all right within limits, but we must have a commission to watch over It." Henry R. Towne of New York urged tho Judiciary committee to combine the trade commission project with other trust and commerce proposals In one measure to carry out the legislative program. Hindu Predicts the Worst Revolution World Has Known WASHINGTON, Feb. 13. A prediction of "the fiercest revolution the world has ever known" If tho British government approves the Hindu exclusion policies of Its colonics, was made today beforo the houso Immigration committee by Dr. Sun hlndra Dose, n professor In tho University of Iowa, during an argument In which he contended that Hindus, were an Aryan people, entitled to naturalization here. He urged that 1f the'HIndus were to be excluded here a "gentleman's-agreement" be made between the United Statesand .-.the British , ,nd,, garment to restrict. the lmmter.Uon. A special law excluding the Hindus would humiliate us In the eyes of tho world. It Is not necessary. "We are a great class of British sub jects," sold Bose, "and are entitled to tho rights Of such a' class. ' International complications may follow an attempt to exclude us." "Tho colonies of Great Britain are ex cluding Hindus," observed Chairman Burnett. "The central government In England has not endorsed such action," replied Dr. Boso. '"If It does It will precipitate the fiercest revolution the world has ever known. The people of India arc awaken ing, and If they are to remain a part of tho British empire something must be done, some solution of this problem ar rived at which Is moio reasonable than any yet suggested."
