WHEAT BROKERS STRIKE
WHEN BUSINESS SCARCE
CHICAGO. March 23. (AP) A
brief walkout of brokera halted action
today in the wheat pit of the Chi
cago board of trade for the first
time since the world war. It was a
gesture of dissatisfaction over scarcity
of business.
Here for Convention Dr. Walter L.
Van Nuys of Portland arrived In Med
ford on the Oregonlan this morning
to address the Sunday achool conven
tion which opens here this afternoon
at the Presbyterian church. Dr. Van
Nuys Is to give the main address at
the gathering.
master general to determine whether
bidders were responsible Is amended
so as to grant an appeal to the Inter
state commerce commission, which
would have final authority.
Four transcontinental routes would
be provided Instead of tnree as ior
merly carried the mail.
Companies having claims sgalnst
the government from cancellation of
their contracts by Postmaster Oeneral
Farley In February would pe per-
mltted to seek redress In the court
of claims, a year being allowed for
that purpose.
The revised bill still carries the
controversial clause requiring that
private mail planes carry army co
pilots. This has been attacked by
private companlea on the ground that
no opportunity would be afforded for
training their pilots, and that service
to passengers would suffer.
Sets 6-Cent Postage.
Air mall postage, which In the first
bill was fixed at 6 cents Instead of
the present 8 cents per ounce would
be established at 6 cents. ,
Senator Hastings (r!, Del.) told the
senate the administration cancelled
the air mail contracts "to add to the
prestige of the new deal," but the
neonle of the country were not con
vinced there was any fraud Involved
The new chairman of the Bepubll-
can senatorial campaign committee,
assailing the whole administration
program In replying to a speech last
Tuesday by Postmaster General Far
ley at a Delaware Democratic rally
asserted "twelvt major" piatiorm
promises had not been kept.
Cancellation Flayed.
Turning to the air mall contro
versy. Hastings shouted:
"You can't Justify cancellation of
those contracts. Mr. Farley tried to
make the people believe the govern
ment lost great auma of money In
the carrying of the air mall, while
at the same time his assistants were
appearing before ' committees urging
a million dollara be added to the ap
propriations." Hastings referred to the 1930 meet
ing of private operators with Post
master General Brown, at which the
administration alleges they connived
to "parcel out" the contracts, and
said a similar meeting was held In
the Farley regime to "distribute the
appropriations made for that particu
lar service."
A reading of Farley's testimony be
fore the Black investigating com
mittee, he said, showed he "didn't
know enough about his own Job to
determine what his power was."
