He declared the Scout oath "I tlie bulls of good citizenship." "It Is the basis of kckm) government," he declared. "It is the basis nf orderly progress for our country in the to come." Roorvelt' Tribute The text of President Roosevelt's address follows: "The yer marks the 25th birthday celebration of the Boy fcrouUi of America. During these yiars the value of our organization building character and in training for citizenship has made itself a vital factor In the life of Amer-lea, "That is why not only the Boy BcouIa of today, but the millions of men and boys who have graduated through scouting, will be joined by millions of other Americans In the proper marking and celebration of our anniversary. "As I review the record of these 25 years of scouting In America, I am impressed with the extent of the volunteer service we have rendered. "We as a Nation are proud of the fact that In addition to our splendid system of education and of other services made available through funds secured by taxation, there are In each community so many well organized and efficiently administered agencies which supplement the work of dovernment and make available additional opportunities which strengthen the best objectives of the home, the church and the school.

Needy Clothed "Every Scout seeks to do a good turn dally every troop seeks to accomplish some community benefit, and occasionally, as last year, Scouts everywhere unite to do a good turn nationally. "A year ago, as your honorary president, I started the national Scout effort tn collect household furnishings and clothing and other supplies for those in need; and the results w-ere truly amazing. Hun dreds of thousands nf families were helped by the Bov Scouts. The program for thla year, em bracing as It does over one million boys, last throughout the year, rn May there will be a gathering of the leaders of Scouting at the 25th annual meeting of the National Council, 'But the outstanding event will be America's first national Jamboree, to be held here In the rlty of Wash ington from August 21 to 30. I hope to attend it in person.

Since I extended tne invitation a year ago, definite plans have crystal lizfd. 'With the co-operation of vnr'oiis ol dclnls In Washington, a tine camp site has been made available and will be all ready to receive 30.000 boys when the meeting start.s. I am glad to know the selection of these boys Is being made on the basis of and, furthermore, that In many cases these boys will come to WashinKton at the expense of the troop rikI not merely be cause the boy's economic situation in life Is such as to make it possible tor his parents to send him, to Attend "Thirty thousand Scouts brought together under such conditions will mean the most thoroughly represen tattve group of American boys ever mobilized for a purpose of this char- acter. "We hope, too. that other conn tries will send at, lea.st small dele Rations to meet with us on this oc caslon.

Because scouting is now lr active operation in almost every civilized nation of the world, this ill give us a splendid opportunity to enlarge our basis of mutual re spect, of understanding and friendship among the people of (he world regardless of race or creed. "In a moment Dr. West Is going to lead the scouts in thousands ol hulls and other meeting places lr. every State In the Union In repeat lug the Scout oath and law. I hope that the people who are listening to my voice will give careful heed to this scout oath.

It is the basis ol g'Hiri citizenship; it Is the basis of good government: it is the basis of orderly progress for our country in the years to come." The Day in Congress WASHINGTON, Feb. 8. SFNATK Met noon and recessed at 4.20 P. M. until noon Monday.

Allebach's written admis slon that he had been "fighting battles of the distributors" was rend Into the record of the Federal Trads Commission's inquiry into the milk situation here yesterday. The statement was made in a let.

ter to Dr. Thomas Kelly, of the Scott-Powell Dairies, which sought to gain a concession for one of the farmers of the Inter-State Milk Producers Association, of which Allebach was then president. The letter warned that "we an going to have a revolt in the asso. ciatlon" unless the complaints ot some of the farmers were heeded, Admits Writing Letter Allebach, who has since been de. posed as president, but Is still the Inter-State's $5400-a-year saUj manager and leading figure, admit-ted authorship of the letter, which was introduced In photostat form by former Judge John W.

Hilldrop, of Tennessee, counsel for the Inve'sti. gating commission. The letter sought an Increase in the basic milk supply of Jessie E. Kurtz, of Carlisle, an increase Kelly refused after an exchange ot letters. "I have just looked over the production of Mr.

Jessie E. Kurtz," said Allebach's letter, written June 14, 1933, "and find that he is produc-ing a lot of surplus and still is insisting that his basic be raised. "I think he is entitled to it, and unless we are going to raise the basic of some of the men of tills type, we are going to have a revolt in the as-tociation. "If he should take his conditions up with the Investigating committee, and if they call your organization to the front, you will have a hard Job to prove that you are not putting some surplus in the bottles, I am afraid. "Not a Threat" "I am not writing this as a threat, but I have been fighting the battles of the distributors In this territory all through this session of the Leg.

islature (1933) trying to keep it from coming to a head, and unless I am going to get some consideration in some of these cases, I am not going to keep It from coming to a bead In the very near future." Allebach denied he had intended to write some of the things in that and other letters of which he ad-mitted authorship yesterday. "Well, the Intention gtd." bt said after one letter had been read, "but the letter dumb the same as I am. If I am to be punished I am willing." The letters were unfortunately worded, he said. "I'll change that now," he said several times durir.jt the reading of the letters.

Mrs. Beatrice Wilkinson, who Is said to have kept house for the gang In the Torresdale Manor bungalow where Weiss was kept prisoner until he wa killed; waived a hearing and. was held in default of $2500 ball.

Other Man Sought A warrant Is out for another man, Eastburn announced, whose l.anie has not been revealed. A coroner's inquest yesterday said Weiss met death at the hands of the six defendants "and others." Eckert said yesterday that Walter Legenza, Mais' lieutenant, fired the first shot into Weiss and Wiley the Legenza and Mais were executed at Richmond, last Saturday for another murder.

8 (A. THE battle of the Rudy Vallees -fighting over a $100 weekly allowance to the crooner's wife, Fay Webb almost turned Into a battle of fisticuffs as a day of sensational testimony and charges ended in New York Supreme Court today. As Justice Salvatore Cotillo announced he would reserve decision on a 'motion by Samuel Gottlieb, who said Fay "did not dare" take the witness stand, for dismissal of the suit, one of Mrs. Vallee's counsel, Benjamin Hartstein, walked up to the crooning orchestra leader and. remarked: "Stop acting you're not In the films, now." Vallee swung about, drew back his arm in a well poi.d pugilistic attitude, but lawyers jumped between him and Hartstein.

Justice Cotillo, still on the bench, pounded his gavel and shouted for order. "He Just sneaked up on me," Hartstein shouted. "Oh, no he didn't," replied Justice Cotillo. "I saw Mr. Vallee and he didn't sneak up on you." Apology O.

Vallee apologized to the Court. He said he thought it had recessed when the Justice said he would rule on Gottlieb's motion next Wednes-lay. His apology was accepted. These were the important developments of the day's somewhat bizarre testimony and motions: 1. Fay's father, Clarenc Webb.
