THURSDAY, JUNE GARNER SAYS HE'S SPARE ON BAND WAGON Washington, Juno 21 (LP) Vice President John N. Garner, self-described "spare tire" ot the govern ment bandwagon, Wednesday broke his long Bilence with a statement regarded as opening the congres sional election campaign. Garner, who has made hardly ny public pronouncements since leaving the stormy arena of the House for the quiet presiding office of the senate, praised the leader ship of President Roosevelt and the record of the 73rd congress. Ke referred to himself humor ously as the "spare tire on the na tional automobile." President Rooseveltjie said, "has brought the country from a state of industrial chaos and psycholog ical despair to a condition where the upward trend Is obvious and people look to the future with con fidence." To critics of congress, he said: "Actually the session of congress just completed was one of the calmest, most constructive that I remember during my 30-odd years In the capital. Practically the en tire membership has taken the same view of the situation to which I have subscribed that is, that we have given the president a job to do; we have clothed him with au thority and It would be absurd to turn around and make It Impossi ble for him to accomplish that which we asked him to accom plish." Referring to republican critics, Garner said, "I have no doubt that their assaults would be Just as fierce If the president asked con gress to enact the Ten Command ments into law." MUSIC AND BEER CHEER MILWAUKEE Milwaukee (LP) Symphony music . and beer, which renewed their old time association In a huge German garden atmosphere here last year, again are drawing crowds to the cummer concerts of the Milwaukee Philharmonic orchestra. Weekly concerts, at popular pri ces, are held in a clubhouse which has been transformed into a palm garden. The concerts draw the masses and the classes. Society folk in evening clothes rub elbows with common laborers, students and all types of music lovers. Many per sons who would not sit through' a formal symphony concert attend the summer series. Beer is served at tables covered with bright-colored cloths. Listen ers drink their beer, munch pret lels and keep time with their feet or fingers and are not stared into silence by haughty neighbors. Prank Laird Waller Is the con ductor of the orchestra of about 70 men. Special soloists are Imported each week. Split in Germany Seems Smoothed Out Berlin, Jurje 2- (LP) A grave split In the government between the Junker-Conservative faction and the more rabid Nazi radicals ap peared today to have been smooth ed over, at least temporarily. Chancellor Adolf Hitler refused 'o take sides openly in the dispute, pe upheld the actions of both fac llons leading to the belief that for (he present they would feel con rtraincd to get along under a sort )f "armed truce" without overt ac Hon by either side. Thus a situation which had grave Implications and might have forced Hie Nazis to take open issue against ihe powerful non-Nazi elements lupportlng them, even risking a ipllt with President Paul Von Hin lenburg and the army, was qulet td without a public fuss.

ORECON TREES MAY BE MADE USE OF FOR MEDICINE Chapel Hill, N. O. (IP) In addi tion to providing newsprint for the newspapers of the nation, a section of the southeastern forests may pro-duce quinine for the pharma cists. . ' Commercial quinine, which pos sesses much medicinal value is con tained not only In the bark of the Cinchona tree which flourishes In South America,- but also In the Georgia Bark of South Carolina. Its effectiveness in curing malaria oft en has been demonstrated, accord ing to Dr. William Chambers Coker and Dr. Henry Roland Totten, both professors of botany at the Univer sity of North Carolina, here. Often referred, to as Maiden's Blushes, this Is a sub-tropical tree which grows in the southeastern corner of South Carolina and south ward Into Georgia and Florida. It is remarkable not only for the cur ative properties, but also for the beauty of Its flowers' sepals which are colored a vivid rose pink. Southern pine from which' the newsprint Is expected to be manu factured and many other we and unusual varieties ol trees from that particular section of the United States, which, according to Dr. Co ker and Dr. Totten. are not to be duplicated in any other similar part of the world, are treated fully In men- recent dook " iTees 01 the Southeastern States," published by the University of North Carolina Press. Some of the other trees which they record are the cabbage-palmetto, which Is a semi-tropical tree, with large flaring, fan-like leaves and the stinking cedar or Tumion taodfollum. According to the two scientists this latter tree is found In the southern states only In a very limited area; both are among tne rarest In the United States. The largest tree recorded in North Carolina Is the "Reems Creek Poplar" which stands 198 feet high and Is about eleven feet In diameter at a point four feet from the ground. It Is located In Buncome county. .
