CONTROL FIGHT SEEN ' I i ..ii .1.1 ... ,. i t STAND TRIAL ON With reported discord between the Hoover administration and tome republicans of congress apparently assuming larger proportions, a fight for control of the party machinery seems In prospect. Frank Hitchcock (upper left) of Arizona and Senator Moses (upper right) of. New Hampshire have been linked with the Hoover forces as possible new heads of the party organization. The name of Senator Watson (lower left) of Indiana was heard among the old guard as a choice for national chairman. The "young guard" republicans of the senate are reputedly looking to Col.

(Associated Press Photos) Leslie (Buck) Wilson, Indicted by the grand Jury for the alleged receiv ing of goods stolen in the robbery of the J. C.

Vittles Thanks Nerts Rile Speech Teachers see how It Is possible to get It passed. I know when I'm licked. In. view of the misleading infor mation the treasury experts have given the ways and means commit tee In the past, I have no confl dence in their suggestions ae to how much revenue will be needed to bal ance the budget," Ralney said. Secretary Mills gave misleading estimates to the committee from time to time and there isn't much use In having him before the com mittee Wihen our study gets under way." Meanwhile, Chairman Collier, of the ways and means committee, who previously announced that Mills was to be Invited as the first witness, to day said: "Secretary Mills has estimated tha If everything goes lovfjy and Presi dent Hoover's recommendations for economies are adopted and the for- j elgn debtors pay the $339,000,000 that j the deficit would be 8307,000,000. We , have those estimates of the treas-! ury," "Pork" Vote Cited Rainey said Representative Snell of New York, the Republican floor lead er, "has Indicated the Republican's attitude on economies through his fight for the 8460,000 heating plant for Howard university, which was not approved by the budget nor by the appropriations committee. However, the Republicans almost by solid vote forced that item into the Interior department's supply bill." In proposing blanket authority for the president-elect to reorganize the government, the Illinois Democrat said "the present government is be ing controlled by organized minority including 600,000 to 600,000 employes In Washington who have been lead ing the raids on the treasury for .their own benefits. Economies Blocked "Every time congress tries to ef fect economies these people send tel egrams to their folks at home and within a few days members of con gress begin to hear from home and the movement Is blocked before It actually gets- started." Asked about the refusal of the Democratic house to give President Hoover blanket authority to reor ganize the government last spring, Ralney said: "Enormous expenditures have been made under President Hoover, the largest of any administration since the world war period. The reason ,he did not get the authority was be cause the country lost confidence in Mr. Hoover." LOS ANGELES, Dec. 29. (AP) Where good slang ends and the ob jectionable begins brought forth a discussion at the convention of the National Association of Teachers oi Speech today and laid bare the pet peeves of a number of delegates. The specialists in how to speak properly disclosed that among words which they "Just can't stand." were "vlttlea," "thanks," "nerts," "Oh, Gee," "Snack," and "Hot dlgglty damn." Dean Ray K. Immel, of the school of speech at the University of South ern California, says "vlttlc." makes "me see red." "I'll tell you another one I don't like, too," he added. "That Is 'snack.' Dr. W. Arthur Cable of the Uni versity of Arizona, heaped criticism on "flappers of both sexes," who say, "Oh, gee." Also, it seems to me, that the word 'thanks' Is a laay and offensive contraction of the neat phrase, 'thank you.' " "Hot dlggity damn," and "Oh, boy, oh, boy, oh, boy" exasperates Dr. A. M. Drummond of Cornell university. Alberta Beeson of the University of Southern California said she "simply can't stand the word 'nerts.' At least a person could say 'nuts'," she ex claimed with disgust. Ten Drown WELLINGTON, N. Z.. Deo. 39.
