ILLEGAL play (thai Is, a play not

The referee (whose job is to
KNOW the rules and see that they
are followed) calls the team back
and disallows the touchdown.
piIETlE Is an uproar. The crowd
wants to win. Tlio quarterback

So he says:
"The referee i-s prejudiced. He
won't let us win, I demand THREE
referees, instead of one, and I'LL

by Cummings.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 12. (AP) I
The tempest surrounding, thei
Roosevelt court reform proposals i
failed today to stir the president i
into making direct comment on
opposition attacks or suggestions I
for a compromise.
Questioned at his semi-weekly
press conference, Mr. Roosevelt
smilingly replied he preferred not
to talk about current developments
at the White House, or on Capitol
hill.
Persons close to the administra
tion, however, expressed the be
lief that the president would let
fundamental labor and farm poli
cies simmer for the present.
Some of his supporters gave no
tice of no compromise with oppon
ents of the most controversial' of
his suggestions enlargement oi"
the supreme court if justices over
70 do not retire.
In answer to suggestions that
legislation be . passed requiring
more than, a majority vote of the
court, to hold laws unconstitutional,
the president was presented as be
lieving such a measure would be In
valid. At the same lime the president
was represented as discarding the
idea of a constitutional amendment
to achieve his social and economic
objectives because of the time re
quired nnu the ease with -which, or
gtutlzed opposition can- prevent ra
tification.

CHICAGO, -Feb. 12. (AP)
Works Progress Administrator
Harry L, Hopkins said today the
WPA undoubtedly would ask for
an increase In sponsors' contribu

the remainder of the fiscal year.
This would be necessary because
of drought, flood and oilier emer

The sponsors, including city .Mid
state governments, have contribut

of the cost, Hopkins said. He de

Increase was necessary.
The conference of stale WPA
heads was called to consider Its
programs In 13 drought und 11
flood states.
"We want to he sure the moves
we are making In the flood states
arc right," Hopkins r.uld.

No "arbitrary cuts" in the total

the conference. Hopkins said.
"There has been a reduction of
900,000 In the Inst ten months, be

he added. "In theory, there should
