CONGRESS DUE
To FIGHT ALL
SUMMER
BY international News Service

BY International News Service
The special session of Congress
ended it's fifth week today with the
farm and tariff problems far from
solved and a battery of other issues
threatening the Administration
peace.
The new farm relief bill was in
conference, subject to an indefinite
Gquabble over the export debenture
plan which the Senate adopted over
President Hoover's opposition. The
tariff bill was under debate in the
House, with months OF legislative
labor ahead before 1t can be finally
enacted.
Administration leaders hoped to
Nam the tariff measure through the
House by the end of next week.
1t then will go to the Senate Fl
nance Committee for the traditional
Senate revision, which will occasion
four to five weeks delay.
Wins Job for LenrOOt
The Senate meanwhile will recess
NntiI after July 4, while the House
will go home for two months, under
present plans. This program prob.
ably means the special session will
last until the middle of September.
The President meanwhile recovered
eome Of his lost prestige in the
Senate when that body confirmed
the appointment of former Senator
Irvine L. Lenroot (R.) of Wisconsin,
as a judge on the United States
Court of Customs and Tax Appeals.
The vote was AZ to 27, the largest
Administration majority won in
the Senate In the special session.
A bitter battle over considering the
nomination in public and over max
ing public the vote which retained
the secret session may lead to a
Senate "publicity battle later on,
Administration policies will be at
stake in the pending immigration
fight and the clash over the Presi-
dents oil conservation program.
Reverse on Origins
The President faces probable re-
Versal in the Senate on his recon-
mendation for immediate repeal of
the National Origins Act. Thus far.
1t has been ignored and prominent
Republicans have announced they
will not allow the Senate to follow
it.
A new element entered the fight
when Senator Steck CD of Iowa.
introduced a new law which would
fix all quotas and reduce the total
immigration from 1853 900 to 100, 900.
The, Steck quotas would favor Great
Britain with S4,5OO. Germany with
25,000, the Irish Free State with
10000 and Sweden with 1000. All
other nations would he limited to
23,500.
A Senate Judiciary subcommittee
will meet next week to consider the
constitutionality of the Presidents
order, terminating oil production in
the public domain. 1t has been
charged the President exceeded his
constitutional powers since the Con-
etitution gave Congress sole power
to legislate on the public domain.
and Mr.. Hoover set aside several
laws by his order. The ultimate
outcome of this row was in doubt.

MOTHER FIGHTS
To SAVE SON

The W 4rlike' efforts Of his mot =,
who sought to forcibly restrain Phil
1elphia policemen from taking him
outside the jurisdiction until attor-
neys cou.. obtain writ of habeas
corpus, proved unavailing for young
Charles H. NJ. Moses, son of the late
Henry c. Moses and official uf a
local furniture store, who vas
moved to Philadelphia on a non-sup-
port warrant yesterday.
Young Moses was arrested April
%, as a fugitive from justice from
Philadelphia. He was charged with
having deserted his 21-year-old wife.
Felice L. Moses, last October. Moses
demanded a preliminary hearing,
which was held today and late this
afternoon a warrant fir his removal
was signed by Chief Justice Nc
Coy.
Mother Carried Off
Then the fireworks began. Detec-
tive William E. Schaffer. of Phila-
delphia, was escorting Moses to a
waiting police car operated by Hugh
Robey. Moses mother struggled
with him through the corridors Of
the courthouse, trying to disengage
her son. The struggle continued
across the lawn to the waiting auto
mobile and there began in earnest.
A passing citizen, noticing the
tussle, thought police were trying
to arrest Mrs Moses also and
offering his assistance thrust her
into the machine and both mother
and son were driven beyond the Dis
trict Line beyond the reach Of
hshAas corpus proceedings.
Attorney Alfred Jacobsen was un-
successful in obtaining the writ,
however and after young Moses was
50 fely outside the jurisdiction his
mother was driven back 70 the
courthouse.

escape being taken for a ride
by his foes.
II do feel secure, however, for
the first time in a long, long
WHILE" he admitted.
Except for the watchful eye Of
his keepers the dapper Chicago beer
baron received the same treatment:
as the other 900 inmates Of the:
prison.
Due, to Capone and his com
panion, Frank Cline, being sem
fenced for a misdemeanor they
may not receive numbers, W. H.
Heston, prison superintendent, re-
vealed. They were given Jail garb
today.
Capone lolled in his small cell
taking things quietly: He shares
his cell with another convict.
Nearby in the same cell block
Cline shared another one Of the
narrow cells with another convict.
Jail officials were noncommittal
regarding the men. Neither man
has been permitted visitors.
Rumor after rumor circulated
through Philadelphia's underworld
and police circles today as Capone
rested in safety behind the bars.
Why did Capone appear here with
out his customary half a dozen or
dozen armed guards If he didn't
seek a haven in the city's tails.
asks the underworld. He doesn't
even have to pay $4,000 a week
protection money while in jail"
Capone is scheduled to be trans
ferred to the Holmesburg tail today.
He was sent to Moyamensing while
his Jail papers were arranged.

Members of the Capone bodyguard
who escaped the arresting policemen
in Philadelphia, arrived in Chicago

COLLEGE SNOOP
DISCOURAGED
BY LOWNAN

College students are not generally
employed as prohibition informers,
Assistant Secretary of the Treas.
ury Seymour Lowman said today.
in commenting on the testimony of
a dry agent in Boston that Har-
ward men had assisted the Federal
Dry Bureau.
While informers are hired by the
district administrators, all contracts
must be submitted to Lowman for
approval. They are carefully
scrutinized. Lowman said that he
did not recollect a single case
where a contract had been made
with a college student.
The tipsters draw salary Of
IS a day. when working. receive an
additional allowance of up to SIS.
with the stipulation that payments
to any one person cannot exceed
$425 annually.
Few Work Long
About 1Od contracts a month
have been signed in the past year.
Most of the informers work only
a few days and. operate on special
cases of which they have personal
knowledge.
All administl ators have been
warned not to employ minors, which
would bar many college students
from this work. The treasury ap-
parently does not look with favor
upon the use of college students, re-
gardless of age, for prohibition
work, since any activity of that kind
would take them among the bootleg
element and no doubt would be OBJ
jectionabIe to the college authori-
ties

FLORIDA PUTS BAN
ON GEORGIA PEACHES

WINTER GARDEN. Fla. June Is.
The first seizure Of large ship
ments Of Georgia peaches. under
the recently declared quarantine
against all stonefruits by the Flor
ida state plant board. has been
made in Tampa. where truckers
who we're engaged m hauling bulk
oranges out Of the citrus belt have
started bringing in bulk peaches
from the Georgia peach belt.
Much of the spread Of the Medi-
terranean fly has been attributed
70 the methods Of bulk orange puy-
ers. of. shaking trees and then
cleaning I'D the ground Of all
fruit. which was hauled into an
other county or state and then sold
from house TO house.
The state board. during the early
days OF the quarantine. declared an
absolute embargo against bulk
movement az oranges. either intra-
or interstate. The truckers had
planned on two-way service, haul
ing oranges out Of the state. and
peaches and poultry into II.
Tampa fruit dealers are at sea
as to what action to take. or Want
authority they might possess 90
take any action at all. The SOW
ereignty of the state and federal
quarantine seem to be questioned ev-
erv time a new industry is affected.
The Tampans say that in a normal
season there are from eight to ten
carloads Of Georgia peaches con-
sumed each week. The same figures
apply to central Florida. The cit
Il belt populace consumes from
ten TO IS cars each week. in nor

cepted the inevitable. and will do
