WHEAT, COTTON ON
RELIEF PROGRAM
WASHINGTON, March 31. (AP)
Hnry Morgsnthau, Jr., farm board
chairman, announced today that the
Bed Croea has agreed to take over
the balance of stabilization relief
wheat held by the board by August
1. and the balance of stabilization
cotton by October 31.
Congress made available for relief
purposes a total of 88,000,000 bushels
of stabilisation wheat and 844.000
bales of stabilization cotton of which
a large amount still remains unde
livered. Of the cotton. 295,680 bales have
been delivered and of the wheat,
70,018,510 bushels have been turned
over to the relief agency.
The Red Cross has made arrange
ments for the dlspossl of 10.118,371
bushels of wheat and expects to com
plete arrangements for disposal of
the rest well before August 1.
Morgenthau, who completed the
arrangement with John Barton Payne
chairman of the Red Cross, indicated
that the transfer would make It pos
sible for the grain stabilization cor
poration to reduce Its Chicago office
to a skeleton organization "within a
short time."
JOBLESS RELIEF
PLAN IS PLACED
(Continued from Page One)
With referenoe to the latter I am
now studying the many projecta sug
gested and the financial questions
Involved. I shall make recommenda
tions to the congress presently.
In regard to grants to states for re
lief work, I advise you that the re
mainder of the appropriation of last
vear will last until May. Therefore.
. and because of continuance of federal
aid U still a definite necessity for
many states, a further appropriation
must be made before the end of this
special session.
Simple System Needed.
I find a clear need for more simple
federal machinery to co-ordinate and
check these grants of aid. I am.
therefore, asking that you estamisn
the office of federal relief admlnla
trator. whose duty It will be to scan
requests for grants and to check the
efficiency ana wisdom or their use.
The first of these measures which
I have enumerated, however, can, and
should be. immediately enacted. I
propose to create a 'civilian conserva
tion corps to be xised In simple work,
not Interfering with normal employ
ment, and confining Itself to forestry,
the prevention of soil erosion, flood
control and similar projects.
Of Practical Value.
X call your attention to the fact
that this type of work Is of definite,
practical value, not only through the
prevention of great present financial
loas. but also as a means .of creating
future national wealth. This is
brought home by the news we are re
eel vl nor today of vast damage caused
by floods on the Ohio and other
rivers.
Control and direction of such work
can be carried on by existing ma
chinery of the departments of labor,
agriculture, war and Interior.
I estimate that 350,000 men can be
given temporary employment by early
. summer If you give me authority to
proceed within the next two weeks.
I ask no new funds at this time.
The use of unobligated funds, now
appropriated for public works, will be
sufficient for several months.
Will Pay Dividends.
This enterprise Is an established
part of our national policy. It will
conserve our precious natural re
sources. It will pay dividends to the
present and future generations. It
will make Improvements In national
and state domains which have been
largely forgotten In the past few days
of Industrial development.
More Important, however, than the
material gains will be the moral and
spiritual value of such work. The
overwhelming majority of unemployed
Americans, who are now walking the
streets and receiving private or pub
lie relief, would Infinitely prefer to
work. We can take a vast army of
these unemployed out Into healthful
surroundings.
We can eliminate to some extent
at least the threat that enforced Idle
ness brings to spiritual and moral
stability. It Is not a panacea for all
the unemployment, but It Is an es
sential step In this emergency. I ask
Its adoption.

Lobbyists got after the bill strongly
from the start. Representatives of

besieged congressmen on bended knees
asking & chance to be heard. They
demanded to know whether this Is
still a republic or not.
Nobody paid much attention to
them. After defeating the American
Legion lobby, everything else will
seem easy.
It was obvious Mr. Roosevelt would
be required to pull new strings to
get his bill through. The first rebel
lion was clearly brewing on this
measure.
Before the fight started his congres

that they could ram the bill through

doubted their ability to get early ac

Officials reported today-that an ef
fort was being made to secure the
release of -Mrs. Henrietta B. Martin,
president of the "Good Government
Congress." So far rhey have been
unavailing. Mrs. Martin was reported
today as reconciled, but dissatisfied
that she was not allowed a cell with
Mrs Banks, and had received no vis
itors. The authorities admit they have
practically established s "basic mo
tive" for the ballot thefts, and that
the votes for sheriff were a second
ary consideration. Recently located
correspondence Indicates that as early
as Wat November, they were a source
of worry, and that the law and pen
alty for ballot theft was discussed.
A "tip" was responsible for placing
the ballots In a vault last December
31. A re-check of the ballots un
stolen will be made as soon as pos
sible Several discrepancies have been
unearthed In the count for the vari
ous offices, some county offices re
ceiving close to 1,000 more votes than
the President.

ing to recent sales records of the
Goodrich company. In commenting
upon these remarkable new tires, W.
L. Lewis of Lewis Super Service sta
tion, Goodrich dealers of this city,
said:
"An amazing new 'Life-Saver gol
den ply' that resists heat Is the key
to Goodrich s safety and dependabil
ity. This play prevents fabric and
rubber from separating, eliminating
the possibility of heat blisters form
ing, the frequent cause of blow-outs,
Actual road and speedway tests show
conclusively that this new Goodrich
'golden ply' ends beat blisters which
often form In tires when the speed
ometer registers 40, 50 and 60."
The new Goodrich skld-reslstlng
tread which grips the highway Is an
other feature that spells safety for
those who drive on Goodrlchs, Mr.
Lewis pointed out.

W. N. Carl of Applegate, who signs
himself as "farmer Bill" has entered
the contest and states: "The last
couple of days I have had quite a

urday pnd I am myself again, why, I
warn you that It will show better to

Relief from the R. P. C. to pear

been officially extended.
But this is the first official notice
that relief will be granted to all pear

Precisely what this relief will be

Whether this will be AO cents

pear growers remains a matter of
conjecture.
