WASHINGTON, Dec. 19. Those
busy new deal planners, who dump
ed their umpty-ump thousand word
report on President Roosevelt'e desk
two weeks ago,
didn't bother to
explain It, but
their program
for 1 m m e d late
legislative pur
poses bolls down
to Just three
things.
Congress
men who haven't
the patience to
wade through
the verbiage can
get at the gist
of the boards
report by a glance at its subjects,
which are land, water, minerals, pub
lic works and planning.
What the board wants congress to
do this winter Is, first or all, to ap
prove establishment or a permanent
national planning board to be
ordlnatcd with the rorty-two state
planning boards now in existence,
Steps number two and three are
to authorize a continuing public
works program to spend aa high as
5.000.000.000 a year tor ten years,
and to authorize a land retirement
program. What this latter means is
that the rederal government would
buy submarglnal lands and restore
them to timber or grass,
Paul MaUott
None of this Is very radical and
bears no relation to the Russian five
year plan tho new deal bears to com
munist.. The Roosevelt planners do
not, of course, seek to take over any
private property (excepting those
waste lands which nobody wants any
way). In the words of one of them,
what they hope to do Is to plan for
depressions just as the army plans
for war. ,
This plnnner explains a, really rad
ical approach would not even admit
the possibility of recurrence of de
pressions, yet this admission Is im
plicit In the board s whole program
In a word, the report outlines a con
servation program.
Much of the report was couched
In such general terms as to be large
ly meaningless until clarified by
publication of the detailed reports
on which Its conclusions are based.
For instance. In all its talk of public
works, the board barely touched on
the moot housing subject.

DENVER, Colo., Dec. 19. (API
Uncle 8am went treasure hunting
today.
No Long John Silver was the ex
peditions leader, Harold Nathan, port
ly, spectacled and middle-aged as
sistant director of the division of
Investigation of the department of
Justice. Nor did members df his crew
resemble the popular conception of
seekers after burled wealth.
Romance also was lacking In the
setting.
The government agents are seeking
approximately 44.00O of the 200.000
ransom paid by Charles P. Urschel,
Oklahoma City oil man. for his re
lease from kidnapers. The suspected
cache Is believed to be part of the
$90,000 received by Albert Bates, now
serving a life sentence for the crime.

AAA-ers are right In their private
forecasts of what the future holds.
AAA-ers won't come right out and
Bay so for fear they might be charged
with trying to regiment farmers, but
they have little Inner doubt that
more farmers are going to demand
compulsory crop control now that
the cotton growers have okayed It.
In fact, eastern potato growers
were In even before the official cot
ton poll was known. They asked a
almllar control program for that
commodity. AAA-ers listened and
then told them congress would have
to decide.
Outside of cotton, tobacco Is the
only crop now having clmpulsory
control. Results of a vote on contin
uing the plan for tobacco will be re
leased In a few days.
As one AAA-er put It:
The farmers feel that If 0 or 90
per cent of growers of a crop want
production control. It Is only right
that the few not wanting It should
be required to come In. Why should
they enjoy the higher prices brought
about by majority action, although
they do not contribute?"
It la pointed out that, had It not
been for the drought, the 1. 000.000
extra acres of wheat planted by non
signers last year might have wrecked
the market and the adjustment pro-
rm for that crop. Due to the
drought, however, nature curbed
production far beyond anybody's es
timates and thus prices were unar
fected by the chiselling minority.
Hlstorlc-mlnded AAA-ers recall
that compulsory crop control began
hark In colonial Vlrclnta when to
bacco planters got together on a plan
of limiting output of the leaf.
In broadest terms.
The business men were prepared to
offer their aid to the president In
combatting extreme legislation.
They expect alao to offer a plan
for recovery, but It remained to be
seen whether this plan will state spe
cifically or generally what buslnesa
believes It can do. .

CHRISTMAS SALES
BEST IN 3 YEARS
NEW YORK. Dec. 19. (AP) De
partment store members of the Na
tional Drygcoda association have re
ported that Christmas sales this year
will be at least 16 per cent ahead
of those In 1933.
In 70 leading cities from Maine to
California the association received
word that sales from Thanksgiving
to the middle of December were not
only ahead of last year, but were
almost equal to thone In 1931 and
the best In any of the three years
nee that time.
Recent estimates made by govern
ment etatlstlclsns In Washington and
predictions In private circles had
placed Christmas sales this year t
the highest figure since 1030.
PORTLAND, Dec. 19. (AP) A sys
tem of age Insurance Incorporating
some or the elements of employment
Insurance, to be controlled by the ;
state, collected by the state, and paid j
by the state. Is to be proposed to tnej
Oregon legislature at the January
session.
The announcement waa made by i
Charles H. Oram, state labor commis
sioner. In an address lata Tuesday at
the 29th annual meeting of county
Judges and commissioners of Oregon.
Tho plan Oram has In mind would
be sclf-aupportlng. Every employe
over 18 years of age would be taxed i
one per cent of his wage, but not to I
exceed $16 a year. Prom this fund i
perhaps 960 a month would be paid ,
to every citizen as he becomes unable 1
to work or reaches the age of 60 years. '
Governor-elect Martin, who like
wise addressed the county Judges and
commissioners, explained that he
was Inclined to believe Oregon should
postpone any action on old age or
employment Insurance until after the
federal government has Indicated
what steps, if any, It will take In this
direction.
Oram suggests the tax be collected
by the state tax commission, and that
the Insurance or "pension" be dis
bursed by the stato industrial acci
dent commission. Thus no additional
machinery would have to be set up,
and economy of administration would
be guaranteed.
The labor commissioner explained
that If the federal government also
decides at the next session of congress
or later, to adopt some form of old
age pension, the bill he proposes
would authorize Oregon to make
whatever change would be necessary
in the Oregon law to dove-tall the
