MAI.LON Copyright, 1833. by Paul Malton. Drilling WASHINGTON. Nov. 11. President Roosevelt 1 playing hie new high cards now as craftily as he fed the New Deal legislation to congress last spring piece by piece. Those who know the Inside game say the next ace to be turned up will be a strong slums clearance project. The plans lor It have already been i secretly made so as to obtain a max!- ; , mum possible etlect this winter. The cities tentatively mentioned In contidcntlal reports are New Yorlc. ' Cleveland, Boston, Baltimore, Wash- Ington, Chicago and Atlanta and j there may be others. This new card tits In perfectly with the last one. That was the scheme to I employ four million men on the rolls i through direct federal and municipal projects. j It gives you a clear hint how the master minds are working. They are playing with the currency j only superficially, but they are trying to find every possible way of getting money out Into the hands of the peo ple. It means the four million relief ers will have at least one-third more money -to spend than they have had. Also It means that the frozen public works dollars may run more freely In the larger cities where winter hard ships are always most critical. It should have a strong stimulating effect. Machinery The president now has a machine to euro the depression. It was invented by a friend of one of his cabinet members. It Is built of metal and is full of weights on pulleys. All you have to do la to pull one string and prosperity is here. Those who have seen the machine say that it works far better than the Idea submitted to the agriculture de partment of boosting farm morals by rhythmic dancing. The machine is built on the theory of maintaining a proper price balance by manipulating a silver-gold ratio. It will not be used. . i'olitlcs Political technicians of both parties privately interpreted the recent elec tion results the same way. Behind all their published alibis and condolences was a general agree ment that the main idea of the voters still is: "Kick the ins out." The results In New York, Philadel phia, Pittsburgh and Cleveland, dove tailed into that Inevitable conclusion. Having cleaned out the federal and many state administrations last year they are now sweeping out the cor ners. Republican leaders generally got less solace out of the situation than they pretended. They confessed In private that New York hardly went republican or even pro-LaGuardia. They thought it rather went anti Tammany and anti-Farley. The general supposition Is that Tammany will go through a mild sur face reorganization and come back strong two years hence. Most non-partisans agree the ad ministration policies were not deeply Involved and that the bruise on Gen eral Farley's nose will heal in time. Cotton Perspiration has been rolling freely these cold days from the brows of the government agriculturists. They have been trying to figure a way out of their cotton Jam. j With one hand they have been dol ing out to the cotton farmer options for the purchase of government cot ton at six cents a pound. With the other hand they have been boosting the market price of cotton up to ten cents. The options come due December 1. The government was faced with the prospect that the farmers would take 2.400.000 bales of government cotton at six ccnU and dump It on a ten cent market. That would rulii the market. What to do? The only thing they have been able to work out is a scheme whereby they lend the farmer 10 cents a pound on the cotton they are selling him for six cents. They believe that will cost the gov ernment about M6.000.000 more than had been expected. But there is no other way they can sell the cotton and keep it too. An announcement to that effect has been ready for publication for several days. Rula The rear back to Mr. Roosevelt's first cautious step toward Russian recognition was so mild that It did not interfere with his plans. Some of his counselors felt that the American legion. A. F. of L. and oth ers would start trouble that might be embarrassing. That is m'hy he went into recognition by cautious steps rather than by one big Jump.

( AP) Out of the depths of earlier defeats and disap pointments rose a crashing, smash ing California Golden Bear eleven to day to batter University of Washing ton Huskies to a 33-0 defeat, the most humiliating beating a Purple and Gold team has suffered In many seasons. While 35,000 fans watched the one sided clash with mingled emotions the fighting Bears reached . their greatest height with a drive and dash that utterly demoralized the Husky offense; made "breaks" after "breaks" and snntched at every op portunity to roll over touchdowns In every period. The most convincing rout of a Washington team by California since the Bears piled up a 45-7 victory In 1822, saw Coach BUI Ingram'a war riors smash Into the Huskies with furious charges that completely shat tered the morale of the northern squad.

(ff) Varying theories today complicated the hunt for the supposedly kidnap ed Brooke Hart, 22, son of a wealthy San Jose merchant. , A search of the liner Lurllne at San Pedro by a swarm of San Francisco and Los Angeles police failed to de velop the clue that turned up In San Francisco last night with the finding of young Hart's wallet on the uard rail or an on tanker that had been alongside the passengershlp a few hours before It sailed for the south ern metropolis. Chief of Police J. N. Black of San Jose, It was learned, was checking a report that young Hart had Incurred debts of which other members of his family did not know. Officers said there was no verification of the report but It would be run down. Another angle was the statement of John Sepulveda, rancher, who said he saw young Hart s automobile, with a man answering the gcnoral descrip tion of the missing youth, standing beside It alone and apparently tink ering with a headlight, at the exact spot where the car was found several hours after the disappearance. EP WASHINGTON. Nov. 11. Pi The outlook tonight was that Oregon would has no coastal highway con nected with bridges if it awaited pub lic works funds to carry on the con structlon. While representatives of the Pacific coatt and Rocky mountain states hoped Public Works Administrator Ickes had not entirely turned his back upon their recommendations, his posi tive statement that Oregon will not get any more public works funds un til other states' needs have been cared for seemed to block their effort frr the time being ac least. His assertion pushed five bridges, estimated to cost more than 3,0oo,000 into the back ground and left the Oregon coastal highway In a secondary position as compared with other north-sou'-h thoroughfares between the Pacific Northwest and California.

(AP) Although the comptroller general of the United States today held Henry Ford eligible for government con tracts, all indications were that the motor manufacturer would get none until the question Is talked over next week at President Roosevelt's council table. The ruling was that the automobile code Is law; that Henry Ford must comply with It; that no evidence shows he is not complying, and in the absence of such evidence it must be assumed that he la. Hugh 8. Johnson, the NRA execu tive, from Fort Worth, Texas, ex pressed disagreement with tho comp troller's ruling, voicing a belief that this official, J. R.

It seemed likely today such hearings would be held despite vigorous opposition from the Indus try, which wants to pift the code through without furthor delay. - The McCarl ruling on Ford was occasioned by two branches of t,he government being In the market for automobiles and motor trucks. The agriculture department opened bids for 1000 trucks to transport civ ilian conservation corps units south for the winter. The commerce de partment was In the market for four cars and six trucks for its airways division. A local Ford dealer bid low on both, but President Roose velt and Johnson agreed that In view of Ford's record his products should be barred under a presidential or der of last August requiring that sellers of supplies to the government must produce them in compliance with NRA requirements. Both the chief executive and John son Intended that to advance NRA'S cause that the government business should be limited to those who co operate in the program. Ford, while complying, has held aloof. TO A SILVER COFFIN NEW YORK. Nov. 1 1 P) They brought Texas Gulnan back to Broad way today In a silver coffin.
