Congress Program Calls for
Cutting: Immigration;
Building. Roads
Hawley Feels Country Pre
fers to Pass by Income
Tax cut now .
WASHINGTON. Not. 26
(AP) A three way drive la con
gress toward ! the solution or me
unemployment . problem tool
shape on Thanksgiving eye In
proposals to further restrict im
migration. Increase federal high
way aid and to provide means for
expediting the government build
ing program.
The suggestion the" country was
willing to give up the one per
cent income tax reduction this
year to permit the government to
use the money in giving Jobs on
its work was made by Chairman
Hawley of the house ways and
"means committee. His commit
tee originates all revenue raising
legislation.
At the same time, . Chairman
Johnson of the .house immigra
tion committee, proposed perman
ent immigration restriction legis
lation and predicted the United
States would never "again permit
the arrival of immigrants who
would interfere .with economic
conditions." :
Prqposal Made to Match
State Road Expenditures
A plan to allow the federal
government to match dollar for
dollar all the funds spent before
next July 1 by states for road con
struction was drafted by Chair-,
man Dowell of the house roads
committee with a view to early
action at the December session.
While Dowell said the federal
government could lend its great
est Indirect relief of unemploy
ment through the road program.
Anpther relief measure, that
of Rep. As well, democrat of Lou
isiana, to provide a $60,000,000
seed andiertiilzar. loan fund for
drought stricken farmers, is to be
considered by the house agricul
ture committee next week.
Expressing doubt the lower
taxes would be allowed for anoth
er year. Hawley said the govern
ment would make known its posi
tion soon. .
Hawley Dubious About
Any Tax Increase
Question as to the possibility of
an increase in taxes', the Oregon
member said he would "have to
be shown clearly and strongly"
that It was necesary before he
would approve it.
Asserting the remedy for thel
economic depression and unem
ployment rested with the people
and not1 the federal government,
Hawley said "it was a dangerous
thing" for the government to in
stitute a relief program that ul
timately mighty become perman
ent. -
Hawley said he saw signs o: the
country recovering from the econ
omic depression, which he blam
ed largely on a ''buyers' strike."
- Turning to the tariff, Hawley,
a co-author of the new act, said
he saw ho necessity for making
any chatfges, adding:
"The tariff is fairly well ad
justed to the circumstances in this
country and should be given an
opportunity to operate without in
terruption." Most of the talk about retalia
tory tariffs, he said, has been er
roneous, adding that he believed
it it had not been for the new act,
business in this country would
have been worse.

OF BETRAYERS
Despite Sure Result, Eight
Engineers Tell Details'
In Dramatic Trial
Entire Soviet Hears Story
Over Radio; Other Na
tions are Involved
MOSCOW. Nov. 26 J API-
One by one eight prominent Rus
sian, engineers are throwing
away their chances for life In a
counter-revolutionary . drama
which is the sensation of the
communist world.
While snow Is packed on the
cold streets of the Red capital,
while the radio blares forth the
testimony to the far reaches of
the soviet domain, while movie
cameras grind and four Judges
caimiy smoke cigarettes, these
eight are confessing fully to the
charges placed against them in
indictments last month that
they conspired with certain
French and British interests for
the overthrow of the communist
regime.
As the trial began yesterday.
Professor Leonid Ramzln, accus
ed as chief of the plotters, told
full details of the scheme which
was allowed to have involved for
mer President Raymond Poin
care and Foreign Minister Briand
of France, the French and Brit
ish general staffs, Polish and
Roumanian soldiers and others
and he asked 'no mercy although
he repented.
Testimony Given Frankly
Not as one Repentant
Just as frank today and equal
ly repentent was Victor. Alexis
Larichev, second in command.
Like Ramzln, he 'told every
thing."
A third, Professor Ivan Kalin-
ikov, also told his story today,
which os substantially the same
as that related by the other two
and as told' when the indictments
were made public last month.
It was a widespread plot as
the defendants described it,
aimed to bring Intervention of
France and England with the
neighboring countries of Po
land and Jugo Slavia: to sab-,
otage soviet industries, there-,
by slowing them down and
raising the cost of production
and otherwise spread discon
tent among the soviet public
so as to make the overthrow
of the proletarian dictatorship
easy.
The principal blame, how
ever, was laid on French offi
cials and capitalists and the
defendants even named by in
itials Frenchmen connected
with a "certain instruction" in
Moscow. The French embassy
is the only institution of that
country in the Red capital.

At Hospital
Feast Today
Who can enjoy Thanksgiving
at the hospital? Folks who have
spent a holiday in a general hos
pital are usually of the opinion
that no convalescent can do Jus
tice to a Thanksgiving dinner.
However, at the state tubercu
losis hospital, the Thanksgiving
turkey is anticipated with much
eagerness. I
At this institution, where ap
petites are on the mend, one's
food becomes a most important
item; and when a patient is
spending 24 hours in the open
air, the" aroma of roast turkey
becomes especially appealing.
Doctor O. C. Bellenger, super
intendent, and his staff have
worked hard to make the
Thanksgiving feast all that any
one can wish for, and the board
of control has furnished sup
plies of the best quality. . The
cooks take pride in making each
Thanksgiving one to be remem
bered by every patient.
As for the children well,
there are over SO lively, happy
youngsters at the tuberculosis
hospital, and their enthusiasm
for Thanksgiving is, as genuine
and healthy as may be found
anywhere.
The following menu, prepared
by Miss H. Had wen, matron,
easily explains why the hospital
patients enjoy their Thanks
giving:
Fruit cocktail, celery, pickles.
roast turkey, dressing, gravy,
mashed potatoes, buttered cauli
flower, cranberry sauce, coffee,
milk, bread and - butter, and for
dessert, pumpkin pie with
whipped cream.
