Hoover's ' moratorium plan for handling the "war debts to the United states lor tne next year. - "Mr." Hoover called me by tele phone Just before be announced the plan and he had a long con- ersatlon concerning it. saia air. TTawlwv 4It la In fact a ten simple idea and considering the condition In which Europe louna " herself a few -weeks ago. ' and in which she still Is, It was the only thing to do. The United States, which has the balance of gold in circulation, had been re-eM-rinr carmen t of allied debts by credits Along came the de pression, which Is far worse In Europe than in the United States, and the allies, especially Ger many. - had to pay - In ' gold of which they had very MUe and all of which they needed badly for advancement of their home in dustries. . . "Just when Mr. Hoover acted all Europe was on the -verge of a panic; the Reischbank, Ger many's greatest bank.1 was -tottering and Its fall would mean the economic collapse - of Ger many. The United States is the strongest financially in the world, and we alone can start a recovery fromjthls period of international depression. , Moratorium BUI Will Come up Early One of the first bills to come before the house of representa tives when congress convenes in December will be a bill outlining President Hoover's moratorium plan. Is the belief of Mr. Hawley. "As chairman of the ways and means committee of the honse I expect to receive a draft of the proposed bill just before I leave for Washington or immedlatly after I arrive there. The bill is now being drafted in the treas ury department." I From here Mr. Hawley traced the course of the bill as follows: The treasury department will undoubtedly call in the commit tee of legislative counsel headed by MIddleton Beaman. This com mittee, which has grown up dur ing the past eight years or there 'abouts, goes over a draft of a bill word by word, sentence by sen tence, and traces down all con tingent legislation in order that no former legislation be nullified or that the present proposed leg islation be not in opposition to existing law. Thus a bill Is made to do what it is aimed to do and thus It will be possible to draft a bill for the moratorium plan which will steer clear of the many entanglements of post war legislation, treaties and such. . The draft of the bill will then go to Mr. Hawley who goes over it bit by bit, offers suggestions and criticisms, and enters it in the house calendar. It is then printed in the government print ing plant and comes back to Mr. Hawley who places it, before the ways and means committee in session This first appearance i3 called a hearing and Andrew Mellon, treasury secretary, and Ogden Lt. Mills, assistant secre tary, will come before the com mittee and. explain the bill and answer any questions. This ses sion is all a matter of publie record. ' - Following this hearing the bill will be considered by the commit tee in executive session and tben a recommendation for its passage will be voted by the committee and it will be referred out to the house. It will -Immediately come up for consideration according to Mr. Hawley's belief and he, as chair man of the committee, will have one hour to Introduce the bill on the floor of the bouse. Inciden tally Mr. Hawley has Introduced 36 financial measures for the government and has never lost one. J Mr. Hawley . does not expect any opposition, to the bill, how- NOT A BOY o o Becatu Violet Walker, 19, really did not look Terr much like ausky male hitch-hiker, her dream sf transporting- herself - in that aiodern manner from Buffalo.

N -j ; As. things are now Mr. Hawley feels; that the bill will pass both house and senate without opposi tion and will pass very early and Quickly. i "And the Vnlted States legis lative body can move rapidly on occasion." ' smiled Mr." Hawley. And. for. example he pointed the following occurrence: ""Monday before congress ' was to adjourn Wednesday, March 4 of this Tear, the supreme court handed down an adverts decision concerning the estates tax section of tbe in come tax -bUL The decision meant a loss of $100,000,000 to the" treasury.
