FARRELL HAS HAY
 RECOLLECTION OF
 FIGHT AT MATT|CE
Says He Was "AII In" at Time of Clash and Told kloor He Feared He Was
 Going "Nutty"
By Associated Press

Rockaway x. F., January 20.-Recover- ing sufficiently from the effects of his recent balloon trip to the frozen north Lieut.. stephen A. Farrell appeared to- day before naval board of inquiry and testified he had scarcely any remem. brance of coming to blows with his com rads, Lieut. Walter Hinton, on their re- turn to civilization.
 The court previously had heard Eerr Louis A. Kloor, balloon commander skirt the incident, which occurred al Mattice after Farrell had learned the newspapers had published letter from Hinton to his wife asserting Farrell had asked his companions to cut his throat during their four days wandering in the woods.
 The court, too had heard Hinton tes- tify that he had consulted Kloor re- garding the advisability of dsarming Farrell. Today, however, was Farrell s day in court and all eyes were turned on him as he took the stand.
 He admitted that several times ne had Jagged behind his companions, but he made no mention of a knife. He did, however, state that at the time of the encounter he was "all in'' and that after the clash he had told Kloor he feared he was going nutty.
 DUE TO LACK OF SLEEP
 Farrell said that his condition was due to lack of sleep. The night before their arrival at Mattice 1t was his turn to stand watch ever their camp and when he did lay down toward morning, he was unable to sleep.
 The party was met five or six miles from Mattice by party of motion picture photographers. he testified. kloor and Hinton accepted an invitation to ride into Mattice on the photographers sled. Far reiI said he stayed with the two Indians who had piloted them from Moose Fac tory and trIdged into Mattice after the others.
 When he reached the camp, Farrell said that he was absolutely dog tired" but the camera men continued to bother him.
 T smiled for them, smoked cigarettes for them and did everything they asked to please them, and was all in when they got through with me- he added
 He said he accepted the invitation of a Hudson Bay company man to go to his room and have tea. While in the room waiting for the mans mother to prepare food, Farrell said the room began to fill with men who questioned him.
 The questioning seemed to drive mo wild" he said. It worried me. 1 seemed to be fast losing my sense of reasoning power. I remember one of them telling me about things published about me in the newspapers. I seemed to get all ex- cited. I was shaking all over the place. When the Hudson Bay man took he to the companys store and from there to tho private car. I seemed to be 'dopy. dog tired and all in I could not sleep when I laid down. scarcely remember seeing Hinton, and thought8I was going 'nutty.'
 At this point rarrell said he did not remember the incident with Lieutenant Hinton
 ''Kloor told; me had better apologize to Hinton" he said. and did so. Lieu tenant Hinton and had always been good friends before the incident and have been since"

.H0OVER'S VIEW ON
 EXCHANGES GIVEN
Suggests National Marketing Board of Experts With Reg-
 uIatory Powers
By Associated Pre-.

Washington, January z0.-Manipula- tions in grain could be elimina -ed through voluntary agreements of ex. changes to limit the quality Of the commodity which could be handled .n Speculative trades. Herbert Hoover, former federal food administrator. said today in appearing before the Holse agriculture committee, which Is hold : ing hearings on bills to restrict spec ulation on future exchanges.
 For the improvement of market ng MT. Hoover suggested ere ating under the department of agri- culture national marketing board of experts with regulatory powers with in limits over the exchanges.
 Such a board, he added could assist materially in solving present problems by establishing standard practices and by laying down regulations which would secure for farmers the privilege of storing their grain at country eie> vators. The farmers would be given warehouse receipts on which they could secure credit.
 Assistance in developine construc. five marketing could be given by | board such as he proposed. Nt Hoover said, suggesting that the bureau of markets might perform administr ltiye functions. It's powers would have to Ibe flexible, he added. and it should work in co operation with the grain exchanges.
 'I do not believe the determination |of the precise quantities or methods should be fixed by law" Mr. Hoover declared, "as all such attempts to 1on- |troi economic forces mutt Dc tentative and based upon experience gained."
 Elimination of the ''hsdging" prac- |tices on the New York and New or- leans cotton exchanges would transfer the practice to the Liverpool market, and make it dominant. Mr. Hoover said, adding that the relatiQRRhip Of |fhe Iiverpool market to. ths two American cotton marketS needed Careful inquiry.' s.s
