A steam hovel has been digging In the treas- ury front yard for several days. Some passersby have suspected Mr. Morgen gatithau was digging for gold. Occupants of the lsrgest desks In tide well knew that the real purpose must be to hide the ireaau'ry from the International silver specula tors. At least one traesury author ity has suggest ed that It should be done. There Is no question that treasury mentors are worried because the In 1 ternatlonallsts are making our silver policy succeed too well. When the treasury took the sliver bear by the tall. It was with the un derstanding that the critter would play peacefully. The world was told that silver prices would be boosted gradually to probably three times the then prevailing level, that possibly two billion ounces would be bought. It did not take the world long to catch on to the fact that It could make money out of Mr. Morgenthau. It was soon evident that this was a one-way game, that prices always went up. that Mr. Morgenthau al ways bought, but never sold. It Is not often that the world runs Into a buy er like that. What has happened In the silver world is well shown by a bulletin Is sued recently by the federated cham bers of commerce or India. It severely criticized the India government for letting any silver go. If Mr. Morgen thau is constantly going to buy at higher prices, the Indians might as well wait for the higher prices, Of course, everyone has . figured that out. Speculation has ensued. The world price has been going straight up and up. This has been crowding Mr. Morgenthau into Increasing his domestic prices. It is not generally known, but the treasury also has been forced virtually to discontinue silver purchases for a while. Thus, the treasury finds Itself pledged to buy a billion more ounces In a market u'here the sellers re holding out for a promised top price of $1.29 an ounce. This same silver could have been bought for 35 cents an ounce before Mr. Morgenthau be came a silver buyer. Several courses of action have been under discussion privately for a week. Some treasury advisors suggested the Issuance of a statement throwing a wet blanket on the silver market. They wanted to drop the bear's tall and seek the nearest tree, but they knew very well that the silver sen ators and Father Coughlin would pursue them. ' Others have recommcnoeo. anomcr automstic 6 per cent increase In the domestic price whenever the world price exceeds Mr. Morgenthau's price. 'On the basis of the 71-cent price, this would mean adding three cents plus. It would also mean that the merry game will continue Indefinite ly.

MEETS APPROVAL Senate Finance Committee Sanctions Harrison Plan $880,000,000 in Cash Would Be Required By NATHAN ROBERTSON AM)datHl Press Staff Writer WASHINGTON, April 25. AP) The Harrison bonus compromise, lib eralized to provide cash Instead of bonds, was approved today by the senate finance committee after the two full cash payment proposals had been overwhelmingly rejected. The compromise, for which admin istration support Is claimed, was vot ed out by the committee without a record vote after an hour and a half executive session. Previously the committee had voted 12 to 18 to substitute the comprom ise plan for the Vinson cash pay ment bill, after the Vinson proposal had been substituted by a 13 to 4 vote for the Inflationary Patman bill passed by the house. The major change In the Harrison bill was an amendment by Senator Connolly (D., Tex.), which was sup ported by Chairman Harrison, to per mit veterans to exchange their ad Justed service certificates for cash Instead of negotiable bonds as orig inally proposed. The amendment was adopted with out a record vote. Preliminary esti mates were that it would require about (880.000.000 In cash, but the total would depend entirely upon how many veterans wanted to hold their certificates until maturity. Another amendment adopted by the committee would permit the president In his discretion to pay the cost of the measure out of the re cently enacted $4,880,000,000 work re lief fund. - . - READY TO INAUGURATE ' DETROIT, April 25.

Soil n sky, di&chargfd superin tendent of Crater Lake national park, took the witness stand In federal court here today to give testimony that he is not guilty of the charge that he conspired to defraud the gov ernment. The United States attorney rested his case with surprising suddenness and the defense put Sollnsky on the stand as Its first witness. His early testimony Indicated the defense would seek to place responsi bility for reputed irregularities of park accounts on A. R. Edwin, former chief clerk and disbursing officer, who was Indicted with Sollnsky and who pleaded guilty to the charges. Edwin turned government evidence. Merely Continued System ; Sollnsky testified he merely con tinued the accounting system in op eration when he assumed the auper lntendency of the park; that he waa an "outside man," versed In forestry, trail building and park maintenance, but knew nothing of accounting methods. George Ncuner, associated with Oeorge Roberts, Medford attorney, as defense counsel, conducted the direct examination of the defendant. In questioning he laid the groundwork for, the possible defense that any actual peculations were committed by Edwin, who had complete control of the park funds. The government'! strongest point against Sollnsky In cluded testimony by Edwin that So llnsky ordered falsification of pay roll records; that Sollnsky personally wrote the signatures of six fictitious workmen carried on the August, 1932, payroll, and that he gave Edwin $100 late In 1932 with the Inference the money waa to aid him In keeping still about Irregularities In the park.
