the President's demands. the senate

Inserting only a few noncontroversial
amendments to which

fund should be given to a board

of the treasury. This was defeat- j

three "radical" Republicans and the
single Farmer-I^ahor senator. The second
amendment offered was put forward
by the silver bloc and was
beaten only by the assistance of 17
Republican senators, for 28 Democrats
were recorded in favor of if and
the vote stood 4.1 to 4"?. It would have
provided for the purchase and remonetization
of silver.
The final vote on the measure was
GG to 23. One lone Democrat had the
nerve to stand out against the administration
and uphold by his vote
his convictions. nltlinmrh sornml nth.
ers had opposed tlio bill in debate.
The man who was true to himself was
Carter Glass of Virginia, secretary of
treasury under Wilson and co-author
of the federal reserve act. Senator
Gore of Oklahoma was paired against
the measure but did not vote. Senator
McAdoo of California had done a
lot of opposition talking but quit with
that and went into the "aye" column.
All of ^the independent Republicans
and Slilprtead, Farmer-Laborite, supported
the bill.
ThQUgh the money bill has been
summarized before in this column, it
may he well to state again its main
provisions, as follows:
The treasury is given title to all the
nation's monetary gold storks, including
$,'1,501 MKX),uOO held by the federal
reserve banks.
The President is authorized to revalue
the dollar at 50 to uO per cent
of Its present statutory gold equivalent.
Coinage of gold is declared at an
end. The metal is to he held In bullion
form in the treasury as backing
for paper currency.
The $2.1X10.000.000 stabilization fund
Is created out of the Increased value
of the gold accruing as a result of devaluation
of the dollar. Tt is placed
in the sole charge of the secretary of
the treasury and he is given authority
to expend it In virtually any transactions
he may deem necessary for
stabilizing the dollar abroad.
In addition, 1 lie bill removes several
present restrictions upon the issuance
of government securities, provides
that any type of government obligation
may be purchased with any other
type, that securities Issued may be
sold privately, and authorizes the issuance
of $2,500,000,000 additional
treasury notes.
It was expected that President
Roosevelt would act quickly in devaluing
the dollar and setting up the stabilization
board.

PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT'S admin*
istration has projtosed to congress
legislation that would bring the stock ,
and commodity exchanges of the country
under the rigid control of the fed- I
oral government. The President's Interdepartmental
committee has made
suggestions for the federal licensing
of those markets and the creation of
a governmental agency with extraordinary
i?owers to regulate their operations.
The hanking and currency committees
of the senate and house have
I these recommendations under consideration
as a basis for legislation soon to

The interstate commerce committee
of the house is working on legislation,
j also proposed h.v the Interdepartmental
committee, that will make the country's
communications systems subject
to similar regulation by the federal
government.

WI1II.E President Roosevelt was
celebrating his fifty-second birthday
with relatives and close personal j
friends in the White House, many
thousands of his fellow citizens were |
enjoying parties, balls and other entertainments
arranged to mark the an- |
nlversary. These took place in hundreds
of cities, towns and villages all
over the country, and the proceeds will ,
be turned over to the Warm Springs
Foundation for Victims of Infantile
Paralysis, in which the President has
been deeply interested for years.
CENATOR HUEY P. LONG of Lou^

blow In the New Orleans Democratic
mayoral primary, which is equivalent
to an election. The

race was a drastic reduction in elec'

Another defeat for Long wns the
finding of the congressional commitj
tee in the contest between Mrs. Bolii
var E. Kemp and Jared Y. Sanders

Mrs. Kemp and the election

this report.
OUTSTANDING in current foreign
news is the fact that Germany
and Poland have signed a peace pact
that is to endure for ten years. The
treaty stipulates that during that period
under no conditions is force to
be used In relations between these
countries. The successful negotiation
of this r?ct is considered a great triumph
for Joseph Llpski, Poland's
minister to Germany, and for Foreign
Minister Joseph Beck, and the jubilant
Poles assert that their nation must
now be considered one of the great
powers of-Europe. They are especially
proud of the way in which they
have blocked the plans of Maxim Litvlnov,
foreign commissar of Russia,
who was trying to combine with Poland
for a protectorate over the Baltic
states. They appeared to be going
along with him but were secretly
conducting the negotiations with Berlin.
According to European rnrrwpnni
it, Murphy, N. C., Friday,
ents. one reason for Germany's radical
chanpe of policy toward roiauu
is Warsaw's disinclination to become
In any way involved with the problem
of Austria, which is expected there to
turn Nazi in the near future. Polish
statesmen privately state Poland does
not opj?ose the Austro-German anschluss
(union). They claim once this
is accomplished the question of obtaining
a port on the Adriatic sea
would become more important to Germany
than the return of the Polish
corridor. I
Announcement of the Polish-German
treaty created a sensation in
Lithuania, Latvia and Kstonia, all of
which countries have quarrels with
Germany and had been relying on Poland's
support.

long as had beer: expected. Without
waiting for a vote by the chamlier of

cabinet members all handed their resignations
to President Lebrun, being
unable longer to withstand the storm
of attacks resulting from the Hayonne

QUINCE ERNST VON STARflEMI
* BERG, leader of the fascist helm- |
I wehr of Austria, has called on that
armed home guard to make a tight to
l he finish on the Nazis, and he i9
hacked by the government of Chancellor
Dollfuss. In a statement the
prince said: "Every leader down to
the last man must henceforth immediately
avenge every Nazi attack. If
legal authorities fail to mete out Justice,
take flie law into your own hands.
"There is only one law in the heimwehr?I
command and you obey. My
command is that, effective today, the
heimwehr must go actively Into the
offensive."
Vice chancellor Fey promptly gave
his approval to the prince's order, and
added: "This is a final fight. It is
now or never. Whoever raises a hand
against the heimwehr must be struck
down."
The immediate occasion for this
activity was the impending annlver- }
sary of Chancellor Hitler's elevation
to power In Germany which was expected
to be marked by further efforts
tr> Nazify Austria.
pOfiMER KAISER WILHELM cele"
brated his seventy-fifth birthday
with the usual family gathering in
Doom, and there were, also, the customary
Intimations that he expects
to be restored to the throne of Germany.
Rut the occasion was marked
in the reich by the launching of a new
anti-monarchist campaign in which the
first development was the complete
absorption of the monarchist Steel
Helmet organization by the Hitler
storm troops.
"The monarchy is nothing to us? |
the life of the nation is every thing,'"
said Johannes Kngel, Nazi labor dictator
for Berlin and Brandenburg, la
an address to members of Nazi guilds
In the reorganized German labor front.
At the first social gathering of directors
and workers of the German Industrial
works at Spandau, Herr Zllkens,
a Nazi orator, was cheered when
he proclaimed: "We need no kaiser,
we have Adolf Hitler."
THE international wheat advisory
commission began its third session
in London, and on its agenda was a
measure for world wide rehabilitation
of wheat by the establishment of a
minimum scale of prices and exports.
Its approval by the 21 nations adhering
to the international wheat pact
wus doubtful, and at American headquarters
It was declared that unless ,
all countries were agreed the pact |
was doomed to failure.
One European delegate took the view i
"it would put the Liverpool and Win- |
nipeg exchanges out of business," but !
others stressed It would fix minimum
prices only temporarily. Other permanent
measures to boost prices would
Influence speculation in futures, thej

C*URTHER Information about the
" earthquake Id India leads to the
belief that It was the greatest disaster
that country ever suffered. That the
loss of life was appalling Is shown by
the statement of the rajah of lionghyr
that the dead there alone numbered
26,000. An engineer was quoted as
having declared after a survey that

Game F?.vored as
Replacement Crop
Birds and Animals Will Aid
in Solving Farmers'
Land Problems.
Prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture?WNU Service.
Encouraging game birds and animals
will help solve the land-use prob
letns of farmers who have taken areas
of wheat, corn, and other crops out of
production, advises the bureau of biological
survey. Game, the bureau
points out. has value as a source of
recreation and food for the landowner
and ns an attraction to hunters who
will pay for shooting privileges or will
reimburse the farmer In other ways.
Game as a replacement crop will
also help prevent a serious decrease
In this natural resource, says the bio
logical survey. In periods of economic
depression, the value of game as
a food resource becomes more widely
apreciated, and squirrels, rabbits,
and garr.e birds thus have a much
greater importance than in times of
plenty. Under the pressure of Increased
hunting, however, game is likely
to be seriously decreased unless
something Is done to aid It.
Many farmers, the bureau recognizes.
have su flic lent interest in game
and other wild life to undertake replenishment
measures on their own
Initiative, and others can be interested
If satisfactory reimbursement Is pro
rided. Local groups of hunters, sportsmen's
organizations and slate conservation
departments. It Is suggested,

that Is much needed In most
farming sections, is in harmony with

great benefit to sportsmen.
Several Plana Followed
by Ohio Sheep Farmers
A large percentage of lamb crop,
heavy fleeces, low mortality and economical
feeding are the principal fac
tors in successful sheep farming in
southeastern Ohio, a writer in the Ohio
Fanner found from a study of the accounts
and methods on 214 farms there
for the last three years. A comparison
of the high ten in income shows
they made twice as much return as
the lowest ten In this group.
Close culling and good care of the
flock of ewes, keeping a flock of breed
Ing ewes and not maintaining wethers,
the use of vigorous rams, cross breed
ing and early lambing were points
in favor of large lamb crops. Those
with large profits had their lambs come
early, from February 22 to April 15.
controlled parasites and fed their
lambs well for early market. They
kept no wethers, believing that n sheep
must do more than merely produce a
fleece.
The best sheep farmers drenched
for stomach worms, and those with
lowest Income did not follow this
practice regularly except In a fewcases.
The mortality was three times
as great with the least profitable
flocks. The owners of the best paying
flocks used 75 per cent more grain
and a better grade of roughage, including
some legume.
Storing Ice
In naekinff Ipp in n form
place the enkes close together to make
the mass as tight and solid as possibly
to eliminate cracks and opening*
through which air circulates, says the
United States Department of Agricul
ture. When cakes are irregular in
size. All the opening between cakes
with small pieces of ice. Broken Ice
on top of the cakes or projecting
pieces along the sides should he re
moved. With sawdust or mill shav
ings for insulation, leave at least a
12-Inch space between the sides of the
ice stack and the walls of the building
and fill with dry sawdust or shavings
as the packing in the center of the
room proceeds. Also place a layer of
dry sawdust about a foot thick on the
bottom of the house, except In the middle,
where the layer should be a few
Inches thinner so that the cakes will
have a tendency to slide toward the
center.
Handling Peat Soils
The first step In reclamation of peat
or muck soils Is thorough drainage.
Deep fall plowing, to hasten decomposition.
and rolling are beneficial on
the deeper peats. Seeding down to
timothy and pasturing for several
years Is advisable with raw peat. The
second step In making peat land pay
Is fertilizing. Feat contains from ten
to fifteen times as much nitrogen as
the common soils and la badly out of
plant-food balance. If the peat Is fairly
well decomposed, applications of
phosphate usually are profitable.
; About 300 pounds sf potash, plus 200
pounds of 20 per cent superphosphate,
supplied to test plots show the most
economical treatment. ? Wall tee's
