 PRES. HOOVER
William DeCroot Loses Position Public
 Hearing Denied
ACTION IS TAKEN TO
 SECURE EFFICIENCY
Two Other District Attor- neys Have Handed in
 Their designations

WASHINGTON, May 2.-Williom DeGroot, who has repeatedly re- fused to resign as United States District Attorney in the Eastern New York District, has been sum- marily dismissed from office by President Hoover, the third District Attorney forced from office since Attorney General William D. Nit chell undertook to comply with the President in a desire for increased efficiency in the Government serv- ice and has initiated a nation wide survey of Prosecutors, which is still in progress.
 Attorneys John Cook of Missis- sippi, and William Gober, of Flor ida. have submitted resignations in compliance with requests of Hoover.
 The President rejected DeGroot's request for public hearing, an- sweding that it seemed to be no difference in the opinion of judges and members of the bar as to the existence of unsatisfactory condi- tions in DeGroot's office and the { necessity of supplanting him with a competent and reliable man.

 NEW YORK, May 2.-G c uld, Keene. Fiske and Gates were giants of day when there still were a few shade trees left in Wall Street
 Today we have Cutten, Raskob Breen, Durant, Higgins, the Fisher brothers and host of others.
 The whirling tides of the recent bull market have receeded far enough for us to sec whose heads are towering above the rest. They arc a gallery of new faces, new groups and new names, n m e s which Wall Streets elder states man, George F. Baker. probably never heard of until he was past 60.
 Arthur r. Cutten, veteran grain trader, was one of the original bulls" on Montgomery Ward stock. He began to acquire shares when they were selling around 80 and pyramided on the way up to above 400 when the company declared a stock dividend.
 He also is reported to have large interests in Radio corporation, At lantic Refinery company, Loos Wiles Biscuit company and Sinclair oil. He recently was elected di- rector of the Sinclair company.
 The Fisher brothers, in addition to large holdings in General Motors have acquired considerable inter- est in Atlantic Refining, Baldwin

SENATOR EDGE MAY BE GIVEN
 FOREIGN POST
New Jersey Man May Be Selected as Ambassa-
 dor to France

WASHINGTON, May 2.-Diplo- matic circles seem convinced that United States Senator Walter F. Edge, Republican of New Jersey, will likely be the choice for the appointment as A m b ss a do to France to succeed the late Myron B. Herrick
 Authentic information, however, is that President Hoover has no intention of making this selection public for some months or until after the special sesison of Con- gress
 It is regarded as lending furth- CT color to the report Senator Edge will soon go to Paris.
 Other gossip has it that Jacob Schurman will remain in Berlin and L. s. Swensop will retain his post in Norway and Hugh S. Gib- son will be Ambassador to Bel gium.
 Some transfers are likely in the Latin American countries and a number of new appointments will be made.

Other fleets. some nearly as large, operated out of Bellingham, Wash, Portland, Ore, and other west coast po1os, but the economic advantages of modern craft forced their replacement until this year only one port, San Francisco, wit messed the clearing of wind driv- en boat in the annual exodus of vessels that compete in the salmon industry
 The addition of fifth steam ship, which could not be gotten ready in time for this seasons cruise, will enable the Alaska Pack CTS Association to discard the two remaining sailing craft and the five steamships henceforth will do the work of the q.
 The Star of Holland this season , will be the only American sailing vessel operating in the Boring Sea, The Star of Alaska will operate on the Pacific side of the Aleutians in the vicinity of Unimak pass.
 Eleven sailing craft of the fleet passing here are tied up waiting sale or junling, one has found place in a museum at San Diego two were sold for ore-carrying in the south seas, and three have gone to Hollywood to serve the moving picture industry.

| EGISL ATORS FACE: PROBLEMS
 ON FINAL. DAY
Important Measures Still Pending Controller Dis
 pute Still in Air

At the outset of it's final day of the present session, the Legislature was still facing an unsolved situa- tion as to the Secretary's office, or rather the work that it has been doing under Territorial statutes. and Controller Bill, general appro- priations and money for the main tenance and operations of the Ag- ricultural College and School of Mines, and one or two minor mat ters.
 The Controller Bill conferences had not produced any tangible re- suits and a report from the Senate managers to the Senate yesterday said little progress had been made. The Senate had on it's calendar the memorial attacking Gov. Parks, ac- cusing him of defeating this meas ure through political activities and alleging he and other Federal off cials had used their influence to beat the bill. It was expected the memorial would lead to much de- batting should it be attempted to pass it.
 But the matter of appropriations was of more than political interest. A measure carrying s2,116.681, pass ed last Saturday by the House, had been in the Senate Finance Com mittee all week. And it was not on the Senate's daily calendar when that body convened this morning.

REVOL U TON IN MEXICO NEARING
 FINAL COLLAPSE

MEXICO CITY, May 2. - The public has leaned for the first time, that the final collapse of the Mexican revolutionary move ment in Sonora is imminent and pacification of Northern Mexico is nearing.
 Bulletins announce meeting at Nogales and surrender of the reb- els, and flight of the principal leaders to the United States.
 The announcement is made that the battle at Sonora last Monday was the last encounter in the up- rising.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 2.-For men with sal in their veins, the sailing of the Star of Alaska on her 1inaT trip U the salmon banks of the north has taken some of the tang of the sea from the port of old San Francisco. She probably is the last full rigged American ship which ever will nose out through the Golden Gate and point south in search of the trade winds needed to take her northward to the cold waters
 A few days behind the Star Of Alaska, also en route to northern waters, is the four-masted bark, Star of Holland. When the two of them, fortune willing, return to port, the era of the sailing vessel in this romantic sea-faring venture of the far north will have come to it's close.
 Steam driven ships have crowded out all except these two old wind tanners, from all of the ports of the Pacific at which once mighty fishing fleets Of sailing craft were based.
 In it's prime this largest sailing fleet under American registry num- bcred 21 ships of various claSsifi- cations ranging from ,30o to 3,300 tons
