BULGARIAN STATE
 MINISTER'S BLOCK
 CUT N PAY ROLL

SOFIA, May 22.-Drastic reduc- tion in the number of government employees was urged by M. Mol off, Minister of Finance, as a meth cd of reducing the annual budget of Bulgaria.
 When figures for the new fiscal year were submitted to Parliament, some of the legislators exclaimed at the total and the minister ex- plained that efforts to cut the number of state employees had been resisted by various depart ments, each of which was willing only that other bureaus should make the needed sacrifices.
 The budget for this year called for a total of 7,O00OOO,0O0 leva, an approximate equivalent to s50,000- 900.
 The Department of Public Debt asked for about s15, 100000. That department not only has to look out for obligations incurred before the war, but also for separations payments to the allies and for the cost of caring for thousands If

 Bulgaria hopes to persuade the allies with whom she signed the treaty of St. German to permit her to re-establish conscription sys- tenn for her army. At present the ranks are filled to the limit of 25, 900 imposed by the peace past. only because of the fact that the soldiers are paid on about the same scale as civil servants, but the re- suit is expensive.
 Besides the quality of the troops is below the old standard The martial minded peasant who used to uphold Bulgaria in battle has become wearied by almost two de- cades of continuous field service.
 Furthermore, he does better finan- cially by working his farm.

 Statement on Suit
NO GROUNDS FOR
 $5OO,O00 DAMAGES
Woman in Case Previously Made Affidavit Was
 Thoroughly Discussed

NEW YORK, May 22.-AttorneJs for Gene Tunney and the Lauder family have made unqualified de- nials of the claims of Mrs. Kath- erine Fogarty who is seeking $500 GOO from Tunney for alleged breach of promise.
 Mrs. Lauder's secretary said. "The matter of Mrs. Fogarty has been discussed at length by the Lauder family before the marriage and it was decided then that she had nothing to claim.
 Tunney's lawyer said that mum erous threats of this kind have been made in the past by this woman eliminating in insistent de- mands and threats, and damaging publicity immediately before the last championship bout. We went into @ thorough examination of the claim she made and found them to be without the slightest merit.
 Mrs. Fogarty then made an af- fidaEit sayilN ------~ scquaint- ailce with John Tunney in Hot Springs in October 1924 and 'our relations at all times have been such as to cast no criticism or discredit on him. 1 have no claim on him and never had any in the pat. She said things about him tn lewyers nzsaie ,s now deeply re- gret because I know of nothing that would cast the slightest dis credit upon him. If any name should ever be used with his in connection I now make solemn oath that he is under no obliga- tion to me and never was"
 Tunney's lawyers said in view of the affidavits made then by Mrs. Fogarty that she had little chance in the present suit.
 Tunney is vacationing at Brioni, Italy.
 One of Tunney's attorneys said: Gene has wired saying that this must be another joke.'"

NEW YORK, May 22-Wall street brokers see in the Chicago speech of President K. H. H. Simmons of the New York stock exchange, at tacking the credit program of the federal reserve board, radical change in stock exchange policy.
 Instead of remaining silent, ey- cept when called to testify in off, cial investigations, as it has done in the past, the exchange appar- ently has decided to adopt a mili- tant attitude
 For years the stock exchange, through more rigid regulations of business and ethical conduct, and more complete corporate publicity, has been removing or alleviating the conditions which brough. criti- cism in former days.
 Such practices as wash sales whereby large blocks of stock were turned over without actual change in ownership, to give the appear ance of strength and activity; also so-called 'bucketing," whereby the brokers took positions against their customers, have been forbidden un- der penalty of expulsion.
 Corporations applying for listing privileges now are required, except in a few cases, to make quarterly reports of their earnings, and to give advance notice of proposed changes in capitalization. Thcce
