FDR MAY ASK FOR NEW
RELIEF APPROPRIATION
Washington, April 7. A move to
bring an end to the present recession
was foreseen today after a high-ranking
government official made the an
nouncement that President Roosevelt
is contemplating a new public works
program involving the expenditure of
$1,500,000,000.
Announcement that Harry Hopkins
and Aubrey Williams, relief adminis
trators, would confer with the Presi
, dent on work relief was made at the
same time that the new relief pro
gram was predicted.
The new program would institute
in order to hike employment, end the
recession, and revitalize the nation's
business. Williams 'has stated that
a much larger emergency relief fund
would be needed soon if the govern
ment was to care' for the new thou
sands of those out of work due to
the recession.
Hopkins planned to appear before
the senate unemployment committee
tomorrow in order to discuss the prob
lem of general unemployment. The
new public works program, it was
understood, calls for federal bond is
sues to obtain the necessary money.
This sum would be lent to cities and
municipal organizations to assist in
the financing of local building pro
jects. '
The projected plan is one of the
government's ideas for the aiding of
business and increasing employment.
LOYALISTS FALL BEFORE
FRESH INSURGENT MARCHES
Hendaye, France (on the Spanish
border), April 7. Fresh insurgent
advances tore through defending loy
alist forces today and captured the
village of Vallibona.
Government troops seemed unable
to withstand the rejuvenated attacks
of rebels on Spain's east coast.
At the conquqered village, General
Francisco Franco's troops threatened
to outdistance the loyalist left wing
which is defending the Elbro river
delta city of Tortosa from positions
in the nearby mountains.
Action along the northern Catalon
ian front simultaneously brought the
city of Balaguer, northern end of the
new loyalist defense line, under in
surgent control.
Meanwhile, French officials massed
troops on the Spanish border in an
ticipation of the arrival of thousands
of refugees from the conflict.
REORGANIZATION FRIENDS
WILL VICTORY IN HOUSE
Washington, April 7. A move to
Hi the government reorganization
measure was defeated by a vote of 191
to 169 in the house today.
The motion in question was to strike
out the "enacting clause," without
hich the bill would have been made
ineffective. The motion was made by
a revolting democrat, Representative
O'Connor of New York.
This procedure automatically threw
the reorganization bill open to more
amendments, two of which were of
fered immediately after the defeat of
the motion to kill the bill. The new
amendments were proposed to meet
demands of opposition'.
In the senate, a proposal was made
today to increase the army's share of
anti-aircraft weapons. General Malin
Craig, army chief -of -staff, stated the
army believed the new guns were
deeded for "reasonably adequate pro
tection for areas in the United States

SENIOR CLASS
INVITATIONS
GO ON SALE
Joe Patterson
Reveals Complete
Transactions
President Joe Patterson of the
senior class yesterday revealed com
plete transactions concerning the 'sale
of senior commencement invitations,
beginning today in the YMCA lobby.
Sales will be held from 9:30 to 1:00
and from 3:00 to 5:00 until Saturday,
April 14.
Four types of invitations will be
sold by the committee, composed of
.PattCTsojk JohnUmstead and Paul
Wolfe. Plain Dutch fold invitations,
for which the committee is paying
seven cents each, will be sold at 12
cents each.
Cardboard cover "booklets" cost
the committee 17 cents and will be
sold for 22 cents; blue or white
leather booklets cost the committee 33
cents and are being sold at 38 cents.
Patterson stated that the difference
of five cents on each invitation was
necessary to meet various expenses,
such as advertising, committee mem
ber's salaries, postage, etc. If the dif
ference exceeds these expenses, the
profit will be placed in the senior
class treasury.
The graduating class president said
he was explaining the transactions
this year in view of the "unfortunate
and unnecessary discussion that arose
in the fall concerning the handling
of these invitations." He said after
all orders had been taken, there would
be a complete financial report made
to the class by the committee.
Patterson referred to the request
of Willis Harrison, University senior,
that the student council investigate
possible graft in the distribution of
invitations in the last several years.

Formal Statement
Twenty-odd seniors and campus of
fice holders, including Bob Magill,
Joe Patterson, Ramsay Potts and oth
ers, last night acted to back "John

azine. Creedy, the nominee of the staff,
is the only candidate for the Maga
zine who has not received the support
of either of the two major parties.
Only Creedy
The senior group in organizing its
campaign discarded the idea of pick
ing a full ticket, since Creedy was
the only man on which there was full
agreement. ,
The Creedy - backers expressed
themselves in the following, formal
statement which they announced to
the campus:
"We, the . undersigned, motivated
by non-partisan concern for the fu

NUMBER 139
Race;
Eutsler, RipDy
Named For New
Council Office
By Charles Barrett
Campus political equilibrium took
a dip yesterday morning in Memorial
hall as four candidates added their
names to the long list of office-seekers,
forecasting a battle at the polls
next Tuesday that will surpass all
previous struggles in magnitude.
The trio of political surprises, re
vealed while party selections for next
year's campus wide offices became
official student body nominations,
were:
(1) Keith Eustler (UP) was nomi
nated by Marvin Allen and Fred
Rippy (SP) by Bill Cole for the new
ly proposed office of secretary-treasurer
of the student body. The campus
will vote on establishment of the
office and select one of the candidates
simultaneously in Tuesday's ballot.
(2) Usually peaceful YMCA elec
tions took a surprising turn as
Brooks ' Patten, YMCA nominating
committee's choice for vice-presidency,
refused that nomination and
accepted Billy Campbell's nomination
for presidency. YMCA leaders went
in a huddle and proposed that Patten
and Barnett both run for presidency,
with the vice-presidency going to the
candidate with the lesser number of
votes. Gene Turner, for recording
secretary, and Tommy Holmes, for
treasurer, were unopposed.
(3) One independent aspirant cast
his hat in the maelstrom as George
McDuff y was nominated by Vaughn
Winboume for junior represent
ative to the P. U. Board. McDuffy
will oppose Morris Rosenberg (UP)
and BertPremo (SP).' Rosenberg
was nominated by Mac Smith, and
Premo by J. L. Pittman.
The remainder of the session ran
true to form as previously announced
party selections, were swiftly nomi
nated. . - " ' '- ' '"
Swept into office with no opposi
tion and backed by both political or
ganizations were Bill Hendrix, can
didate for student body vice-presi
dency; Carl Pugh, for editor of. the
Buccaneer; and Russel Yeates, for
editor of the Yacketv-YacV. Hpti-
drix was nominated by John Bowles,
Pugh by Pete Ivey, and Yeates by
David Thorpe.
Bud Hudson was nominated by Bill
McCachren and Jim Joyner was pro
posed by Jim Balding for presidency
of the student body. Hudson will re
ceive support of the University party
while Joyner has backing of the Stu
dent party.
Andy Bershak nominated Bill Mc
Cachren (UP) and Scott Hunter

Bill Hendrix, endorsed by the Stu

president of the student body, was
