WASHINGTON. D. C. July 35.
Although professors and so-called
brain trusters are constantly coming
Into the service of the government,
the traffic la not all In one direction.
Bometlmea the professors head back
to where they started from. Raymond
Moley, who might be called No. 1 of
the trust, passed out officially shortly
after the conclusion of the London
economic conference because his re
lations with Secretary of State Hull
made his continuance In the state de
partment Impossible.
But Professor Moley la still so close
to the President and so frequently
consulted by hJm on various matters
that he cannot said to have been
eliminated.
Professor O. M. W. Sprague of Har-
drd and the Bank of England, how
ever, tarried a brief moment as ad-
Ti&er In the treasury department, then
definitely severed his relations with
the government and returned to scho
lastic pursuits. There were several
others besides Professor Sprague who
vent out for good.
A further probable defection from
the coterie of professors In the gov
ernment concerns the farm credit ad
ministration. It la understood that
W. I. Myera, who la governor of the
FCA, la about to go back to Cornell
university, whence he came, and re
ume his teaching there. Professor
Myers, when first brought to Waen-
lngton, was placed in the department
Of agriculture, but, when Henry Mor
ginthau, Jr, who was then head of
ths farm credit administration, was
made secretary of the treasury. Mr
livers was put In his place.
Mr. Myers, it is said, finds his pres
ent duties much less congenial than
university work and la desirous of
Teturnln eto Cornell as soon as the
matter can be conveniently arranged
I?o special time for his leaving ha
been considered.
No satisfying explanation of the;
sudden departure of Recovery Adraio.
Intra tor Johnson from the Pacific
coast for Washington has yet been I
given here. The breaking of his an-!
Bounced plans for a long vacation la
not reasonably accounted for by t:ia
report of illness in his family because
It is said that the illness is slight
and amounts to no more than an
I indisposition. To be sure, there havo
Vjen many developments within the
echeme of the NRA which have pro
d uced friction and confusion and
might demand his attention.
Among these la the case of the Har
riman milla, in Tennessee, which were
deprived of the Blue Eagle nd nn
had it returned to them after a con
ference and decision by NRA officials
fcere. The strikers at the Harriman
mills, however, were not at all satis
fied. "It means nothing to us,' said
the strikers. But this and most of
the other disturbing matters were
pending before Johnson went away,
silence, those trying to find the cause
of change of plans are undecldei
whether it was the undeslrablllty of
his continued presence In California
or the desirability of hla presence In
Washington, or whether someone else
made the decision.
The Pacific coast longshoremen's
strike la costing tn department o.'
agriculture dearly.
That unexpected burden arises in
connection with the export bounties
that the government pays to nortn-
est wheat growers. Exporters who
a ship wheat to China and other far
' eastern countries get a bounty from
the government to cover the differ
ence between the prloe they pcy the
northwest wheat farmers and the
lower price they get from foreliin
buyers.
A great amount of this Wheat, des
tined for the Orient, la now tied up
in Pacific coast railroad yards be
cause of the strike. There la a de
murrase charge that has to be paid
to the railroad for every day that the
wheat la left atandlng In the freight
cars, and the government has to stand
that extra charge.
On the large quantity of wheat that
la Involved, the government's bill Is
eurnosed to be climbing at 15000
dally.
The public works administration
has tx"n running a housing program
for a Ion? time and It la trying to
make people understand that It haa
no connection with the new housing

spoke. "One hundred and thirty
four Nazis entered our dear
chancellor's office and one shot
him down, wounding htm so that
he died later."
"And to make It more terrible,
the German minister after the
assassination Intervened to save
the nazl murderers from arrest,
and demanded that they be giv
en safe conduct from Austria to
Germany," the Informant relat
ed. "What a terrible thing to

Asked If he believed the Ger

In the assassination, the attache
replied:
"We don't know that, but at

PORTLAND, July 25. (AP) A
charge that Secretary Ickes, public
works administrator, has broken
faith with Orogon, was made here
today by United States Senator Fred
erick Stelwer.
He described tha administrator'!
attitude aa a "major disappoint
ment." Senator Stelwer slipped into town
unheralded last night and appeared
at hla downtown law office today. He
will maintain headquarters tbera un
til he returns to Washington. D. C.
"Oregon haa fered well In connec
tion with the work , done . . In
congress, Stelwer said. "With few ex
ceptions, projects and plana are mov
ing forward and prospects are good
for uninterrupted progress of ' the
important developments In which
our state la Interested."
"One major dlsappolnment," Sen
ator Stelwer continued in a prepared
statement, "is the attitude of the
administrator of public works In con
nection with the designation of ad
ditional Oregon projects.
"The Oregon delegation secured
the promise of Secretary Ickes that
If an additional appropriation were
made available, Oregon would par
ticipate without prejudce and that
funds allotted flrom the 3.300.0OO.
000 original appropriation would not
be considered In connection with the
allotment of the new appropriation.
Mr. Ickes has apparently abandoned
this position and haa advlaed me
that states which did not receive
their quota under tha original ap
propriation will receive prior con
sideration under the new appropria
tion for public worka projects.
"It would appear that this Is
definite breach of faith."

President Roosevelt's mediation board
announced today striking Pacific
coast longshoremen had voted over
whelmlngly for arbitration of their
differences with employers.
The vote for all coast porta except
ing ballots from about 600 workers

as 6388 for arbitration and 1471
against. Ballots from the relatively
small ports of Everett. Port Ludlow,
Port Townaend, Port Angeles, all In

not been received. There waa no

case and return to work.
Rattling wlnchca and roaring grain
spouts here bespoke a more com-

pose of their aupply as rapidly as
possible.
The "cleanup" market continued
without Interference from strikers,
although large groups were congre
gated outside the yards. Non-union
