Walking -""
WASHINGTON, April 13. Prober
Fecora privately received his walking
papers from the senate stock market
investigators the other day, but be
Is not going to walk very far. There
Is a trick In It.
The probers held secret meeting
and decided not to do any more
probing. Present were Senators
Fletcher, Olass, Couzens and two
others. They agreed unanimously
that the Investigation had gone far
enough for all useful purposes.
Pecora was told that he need not
finish the current power company
cose unless he ran Into something
hot.
,. The matter of how long his salary
will run was left to the discretion
of Chairman Fletcher. The hearing
was terminated for all purposes
except one.
Sandbags
It was whispered In Mr. Pecora's
ear that he should hold himself In
readiness (with or without pay) to
put on his Inquisitorial nose glasses
aaaln at any time.
That means the game started by
the administration before Mr. Roose
relt was Inaugurated Is not yet over,
His original pre-lnauguratlon Idea
was to use the committee as a per
petual sandbag over the fat boys.
He has followed that Idea out In
practice. Whenever they showed signs
of becoming obstreperous he passed
the word to Capitol Hill to open up
he show and drop a few more bags
on their bald pates.
There Is really no reason why the
Investigation should continue ' now
ht t.hA market regulation bill Is
belns framed. But apparently Mr,
Tnnivilt did not want to lose his
andbae.
80 the inner situation is that the
famous inoulry which trapped
Mitchell WlsBln, et al, is over yet
not quite over.
Silver Skeleton
' A certain Democratic senator la
making a deep secret of certain data
he has dug up concerning me iiuiir
ers of silver stocks. He is getting
readv to make an ado about It, If
ha does not change his mind.
His information indicates that the
No. 1 silver investor in this country
la a former United States senator
not now In public life.
The No. a man is a private citizen
who has been In the forefront of
agitation for sliver legislation.
Bobble
The truth will out. aven in Man
ehukuo.
.Tanan has tried every means to
m.v. the world believe that her PUP'
net state In north China is not really
hers, but a separate empire. A nice
Jlttle diplomatic message was con
cocted by the Manchukuo foreign
minister after the recent enthrone
ment of Pu-Yl. This message was ad
dressed to State Secretary Hull and
' driDoed with honey.
But the telegraph operator who
sent It from Hsinklng, capital of
Manchukuo, apparently made an er
ror in the dateline. As It read on
receipt here the message came from
Hslnklnr. Japan.
Which is Just what the rest of the
world has been suspecting all along
History
Vow It can be told that very few
people knew how near we were to
a flare-up with the Japanese in
1933.
Tou may recall that State Secre
tary Stlmson cooled off suddenly In
his ardor against the Japanese. The
reason was that Admiral Taylor of
the American Asiatic squadron sent
a long message to Chief Pratt of
naval operations which was strongly
worded. It said the Japanese meant
business in their csmpalgn In China,
that It was a matter of life or death
In their eyes. He actually contem
plated the possibility of the Asiatic
squadron and all American vessels
In the Far East being wiped out In
event of a sudden war.
Pratt took the message to the
' White House and Stlmson was call
ed off.
Told Feet
Anyone In close touch with con
pressmen can see they have no heart
for this stock market regulation bill
In any form. Fewer than two per
cent of them are agitators for It,
In the first place. It is a technical
subject of which most of them know
little or nothing. Voters In the coun
try are tn about the same fit, If
the Incoming mall is any hint as to
their bewilderment. There Is no pol
ltleal pressure for It, except that
organized by the little Inside clique
of liberals and the While House.
A fair analysis -of the underling
situation Indicates that the question
of whether there will be a bill, and
what kind. Is up to President Boose
velt.
Unless he assumes active leader'
ship In the matter, the congressmen
will phennele things around so the
issue will fall to reach a eonelua
Ion. They are starting already.

CHARGES LEADERS
NOT IN SYMPATHY
Names Pau MarlsTO. S. C
As Not Helpful, And Cause
Of Governor's Veto
United Program Urged
Views At Variance.
PORTLAND, Ore., April 14. (AP)
Concerted effort to push Oregon's
long delayed back-to-the-land move
ment was urged at a meeting here
today, where It was charged various
state officials were not In sympathy
with the movement.
Jack Lulhn, chairman of the meet
ing of city and county federal aid
funds' allocation committees, also
will name a group of five to urge
Governor Julius L. Meier to put Into
effect the state law to eld the move
ment.
B. F. Irvine, editor of the Oregon
Journal, charged that "leaders have
not been in sympathy with this
movement." , He said he would men
tion names because he would not
hesitate to tell them face to face.
'I cannot agree with Mr. Wilcox
nor with Mr. Ooudy (both state re
lief administration members), and I
most certainly do not agree with Paul
Marls of Oregon State college, up
there at the college where there
ought to be' leadership," Irvine de
clared.
"My God, what's a college for If It
cannot produce leaders and why
have the states established agricul
tural colleges If the men In them
are working to defeat the efforts of
those families who want to get back
to the land?"
Professor Overcome
So overcome with feeling waa Prof.
L, B. Brelthaupt of Oregon State
college that he was unable to speak
for' a moment.
The Institution has always tried
to be helpful and I don't think that
the college should be Indicted along
with an Individual I" said Brelthaupt.
We are doing a great deal of work
In line with this forward-looking
movement Jn the way of soil testing
and other things that will be of
much benefit to the future settlers."
With effort he maintained self-
composure.
Irvine quickly responded that he
didn't mean to Indict the college.
I meant Paul Marls, who wrote the
letter that caused the governor to
veto the first Lee-Beckman bill to
aid people to get back on the land."
Marshall N. Dana declared: "Oregon
has passed a law, has adopted a
policy and ha done nothing with
them."
No Co-Operation Told
State Representative John E. Coo-
ter of Toledo, who now Is connected
with the state labor commissioner's
office, said the labor commissioner's
efforts had been almost fruitless for
some time because the state relief
committee would not co-operate.
Marls and Ooudy refused to help
In the plan," said Cooper. "Marls
and Wilcox may be In our way but
we are going right ahead Just the
same."
The Plan
How the federal government would
co-operate with the state In the
movement was described by Robert
E. Smith of Portland, western re
gional director of the National Se
curity Owners' association. He said
recently at Washington, D. C, M. L.
Wilson of the department of the In
terior outlined the following plan:
Supply the settler with a 20-acre
tract, fenced, with 10 acres In the
rough, seven acres with the brush
cleared and three teres ready for
cultivation; the seven acres should

WASHINGTON, April 14, (AP)
Senator Robinson of Indiana told a
reserve officers training corps con
ference today that the United States
Is "the seventeenth military power
today, In regulars and trained re
serves." Addressing studenta from many
military training colleges, he praised
the R. O. T. C but added that com
munists and others are attempting
to destroy It.
Robinson said, "We are a peace
loving people," but that "If the
American republic ahall survive It
Is of the utmost importance that
It be prepared at all times to defend
Itself."
"And now communists, pacifists,
economists and even churchmen are
striking at the R. O. T. C." he said
"The communists at least know whst
they are doing. The communist by
laws, and manuals lsy down the rule
thst abolition of military training
and the breaking of the loyalty of

He had gone south for a rest upon

WASHINGTON, April 14. (AP)
A new venture in economlo plan
ning compulsory control of cotton
production was started on 1U way
today with aenate approval of the
conference report on the Bsnkneea
bill.
Almost certain house approve and
President Roosevelt's signature were
all that remained to make It law,
and Impose a forbidding tax on all
cotton production In excess of 10,
000.0000 bales.
The senate gave Its approval for
the second time by a vote of as to
38, despite a prediction from a suth
ern senator Bailey (D., N. C). that
It wovld leal to "a political revolu
tion."
TARIFF, TAX AND
BILLS TAKE LEAD
Action Expected Before Corv
gress Sent Home Roose
velt Confers With Senate
Leaders On Legislation.
WASHINGTON, April 14. VP)
President Roosevelt indicated today
after a conference with senate demo
cratic leadera that he wanted the re
ciprocal tariff bill, the tax measure,
the municipal bankruptcy bill, atock
exchange regulation, the federal de
posit Insurance plan and monetary
legislation enacted before congress
goes home.
A White House statement after the
parley said a number of other pro
posala were to be disposed of prior
to adjournment but the measures
mentioned apparently were thought
most Important.
The monetary legislation the chief
executive has In mind was not spec!
fled but senators who took part In
the discussions Intimated this In
cluded action on silver.
It waa said, however, the proposal
was more limited In extent than an7
of the several measures put forward
by silver blocs In the house and sen
ate.
House leaders will go over the legis
lative situation with the President
tomorrow.
The White House statement ssid
the conversations covered "almost all
legislation now pending before the
senate," and It was regarded as sig
nificant that the tariff proposal was
named first on the list of measures
to be made law this session.
This bill would allow the Prealdent
to negotiate reciprocal tariff treaties
with other nations without having
the pacts subject to senate confirma
tion.
The house has passed the- tariff bill
but It has not been taken up by the
senate. A lengthy controversy seems
In prospect when It comes up lor
consideration there, since the repun
llcans are almost a solid group In op
position and will be Joined by some
democrats.
Senators said an adjournment date
was not discussed today.
REVISE TAX BILL
TO THWART VETO
WASHINGTON, April 14. IP)
With President Roosevelt ready to
veto the new tax bill because of Its
cocoanut oil levy, senste democratic
leaders tonight tentatively planned
to seek reconsideration of that pro.
vision before the measure goes to
the house.
This plan developed after today's
White House conference, with Chair
man Harrison of the senate flnanco
committee disclosing the possibility
of action along this lino.
Both house end senate hills con
tain a tax on cocoanut oil so thst
a compromlss Is Impossible In con
ference. Under the rules, confeiets
may not strike out language egwd
to by both houses. The Din was pass
ed Iste yesterday by the senste after
the house had adjourned.
Under the house bill eoeosnut and
sssame oils would be taxed t cents
a pound with no exemption for tno
products coming from the Philippines,
whose shipments are allowed free en
try Into the United states under the
tariff act.

PEARS TO PROFIT
Poorest Prospects In Years
Stimulates Demand
Middle West Output Cur
tailed By Severe Freeze
And Cold.
CORVALLIS, Ore., April 14. (AP)
-An Increased demand for north
western fruit this season, particu
larly pears and peaches, Is foreseen
a result of extreme damage to
fruit trees throughout the east and
middle west caused by the excep
tionally cold wather.
This Is the Information gained
from various sources, Including the
government market leased wire serv
ice, by the office of the extension
economist at Oregon State college.
'Fruit prospects In the east are
the porest In years with buds killed
and even trees injured, by the ex
tremely low temperatures of Febru
ary," says H. H. White, assistant ex
tension economist.
"The greatest shortage of fruit is
expected to occur in August and
September when peaches and pears
'juld normally ripen. These have
been worst hit, with peaches In New
England, New York and New Jersey
reported to be a total loss. The
commercial crop la also reported gone
In Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland
and West Virginia.
In the middle west the peach crop
In the important producing states
of Ohio, Indiana and Michigan ap
pears to be a total failure where nor
mally millions of bushels are pro
duced. Lack of this supply is ex
pected to stimulate a demand for
northwestern fruits, especially pears.'
Pears and cherries are also report-
ed to be damaged extensively. Bart-
lett pears, generally considered fully
hardy, will be less than half a crop
In Kew York. Michigan Bartlett pro
duction Is expected to be small. Sweet
cherries In New York and Ohio were
damaged seriously though sour cher
ries were hurt less, the reports Indi
cate. Even apple prospects are greatly
dimmed by the winter freeze. Great
est Injury occurred In New York,
New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio and
West Virginia, where It Is doubtful
if trees' will ever regain thler full
vigor, early observations show.
Present Indications are for a heavy
fruit crop throughout the Paclflo
northwest.

NRA HIT BY NYE,
SEESJSHAKE-UP'
Gen. Johnson Attacked By
Inference In Cleveland
Talk ' Cites Unfulfilled
Promises And 'Ballyhoo.'
CLEVELAND, April 14. (AP)
From the progressive Republican sen.
ator Gerald P. Nye came today the
prediction that . President Roosevelt
will soon shake up the NRA to "di
vorce Its leadership from big busl;
ness." '
Criticising the present policies or
the recovery administration, the
North Dakotan directed the brunt
of his attack upon Oen. Hugh 8.
Johnson, without directly naming
the administrator.
"The rsglmentatlon of business by
the government through the NRA
Is nothing other then the 'old desl'
In high gear," the aenator told
Cleveland's City club In a luncheon
address.
"One cannot be unmindful of the
unfulfilled promises of reform which
have been made by the 'crack-down-artists,"
he said. "If the NRA con
tlnuea under existing loadorahlp and
direction It will carry ua to greater
economlo havoc than we have ever
known.
"All the army officers of the fed
eral payroll are not going to be able
to stuff the public much longer with
this Incessant ballyhoo which gives
the NRA the credit for what PWA.
CWA, CCC, natural causes, and the
purse of Uncle Sam have done.
"I say these things as one who
supported and bcllevea that the NRA.
under wise direction, can accomplisn
great things for America, I do not
believe these policies are going to
continue.
"I believe that President Roosevelt
la about to give NRA a shakeup,
that he la going to divorce Its lead
erahlp from big business and reform
Its policies, making It the agency
to help decentralize Industry and aid
small business against the unscrup
ulous prsctlcea of monopoly and Its
sponsors."

Bandit Vanishes After War
saw Raid, And Law Girds
To Balk Any Rescue
Attempt Roads Guarded
CHICAQO, April M. (AP) John
DIUlnger, America's No. 1 vanishing
outlaw, has vanished again,
The "here today and gone tomor
row" criminal left a cold trail In
Indiana, where he replenished his
arms at the expense of the Warsaw,
Ind., police early Thursday. Koad
blockades and scurrying squads of of-
fleers determined to shoot on sight
failed to catch him.
While fortune smiled on DIUlnger
one of his girl friends, Miss Evelyn
Frechette like some of the other
acquaintances of the notorious pub
lic enemy was not so fortunate. She
was held In $60,000 bond for a hear
ing Aplrl 31 on the question whether
she shall be extradited to St. Paul
on a charge of .helping DUUnger es
cape a machine gun trap In a St.
Paul apartment house.
Shortly afterward deputy marshals
raided a safety deposit box of the
Lincoln Safe Deposit company on
the northside, presumably to recover
bonds and cosh stolen by the DU
Unger mob from banks In Mason
City, Zowa, and Sioux Falls, S. D.
Only a small amount of cash and
some jewelry were found, but the
raid gave rise to a report, which
was denied by the authorities, that
the Frechette girl had, In the lang
uage of the underworld, "squealed."
Despite the denial extraordinary
precautions were taken to cope with
a possible attempt by DIUlnger to
take her from federal officers who
had held her Incommunicado since
last Monday.
Officers armed with machine guns
surrounded her at every turn and
at strategic spots yesterday when she
was arraigned before u, S. Commis
sioner Edwin K. Walker on a removal
warrant to Minnesota.
She was finally taken to Jail to
await the hearing,

Horan last February 13. The shooting
occurred in the luxuriously furnlahed
Manning office on Main street.
A special venire of 40 names was

for the trial.
Mystery Air
Koran's death today Is as mysteri

Whatever prompted the unwitnessed
gunplay across Manning's desk has
been closely guarded by Manning and
his counsel. The defense has been
content to reiterate that the accused
attorney will offer an air-tight reason
for the shooting.
. The significance of the case has
been sufficient to oall In special at

the defense. Theodore R. Qlllenwaters,
Klamath county district attorney, will
