Sen. Norris Introduces Contrary Plan for Third 7iIne-An-
 other Defeat Probable
SUFFICIENT STRENGTH TO
 ADOPT SCHEME FOUND

Two Victories For Proposal Hoover
 Objected to Make Leaders Agree
 to Limit Debate on New Fight to
 Three HourS-Wholc Tariff BiIl
 Unlikely 10 Be Completed in Spc-
 cial Session.
 Washington, Oct. 19 Rs-The ex- port debenture plan of farm relief. twice approved by the senate over President 1Ioover's vigorous ana outspokcn protest, emerged from the turmoil of the tariff controver- sy to threaten the administration with it's third defeat.
 As was the case when it was un- der discussion as a part of the farm bill, the proposal again had the united support of the democrats and the Independent republican scu- ators from the middle west.
 Still Has Strength
 Indications were that it com mandcd sufficient strength for ap- proVal by a margin as great, at least, as the thrce-votc majority hy which it was passed on the two previous occasions
 Somewhat changed in form. the old plan was offered today by Nor ris of Nebraska, a leader in the Independent republican ranks, as an amendment 10 the tariff bill. Tn addition. Brookhart of Iowa, also an independent republican. had in troduced a substitute for the Norris proposal.
 As a part of the general scheme for hastcning the final disposition of the tariff bill and in view of the fact that the debcnture plan al ready had been extensively debated three hours of the senatc's time, in- crcaSngly previous as the end of the special session draws on, were allotted to the proposal with a vote by agreement at the conclusion of that period. By the same agree mcnt, speeches were limited to % minutes.
 When the special session took up the question of farm relief, the debcnt!lrc scheme became the principal point of contention in the senate. The plan provided that the government issue debcnturcs to cx- portcrs of agricultural product the certificates to be equal in amount to one-half the tariff on an cqlli- Valcnt quantity of the same com mOdity. Under the Norris proposal, similar certificates would be issued, but would be payable to the fed eral farm board for use in stabi- llzlng the prices of surplus crops Norris plan also involves a gradu- ated scale Of debcntures, designed to discourage overprOduCtion by de- crcasing the amount of the Hchen- ture in proportion as exports in particular commodity increase.
 Session start Early
 Under the general plan for eX- pediting debate, it was agreed that daily sessions of the senate should begin at 10 a. m. instead of II, as has been the practice recently. In ad- dition, the republicans of the finance committee will meet daily to decide what amendments can be approved without debate.

Inquisitors Dissatisfied
 With Replies of Wit nesses - Hubbard and
 Buell. of State Manufac- turers' Association to Be Questioned On Monday.

Washington, Oct. 19 CP-The as-
 Sis.ance of the department of jus-
 tice may be sought by the Caraway lobby Investigating committee which
 will resume on Monday it's inquiry into the loan" of an officer of the i Connecticut Manufacturers associa-
 tion to help Senator Bingham, re- publican, Connecticut, in framing
 the tariff bill.
 Employment of both counsel and i investigators has been discussed at an executive session of the commit tee and Chairman Caraway says that , it is entirely possible the department of justice may be asked to lend a hand.
 Doubt on Law Violation Committee members are in some donbt about the law involved in salary payments to Charles l.. Eyan- son, assistant to the president of the. manufacturers association, by that organization while he was working for Senator Bingham and ''techni- caily" on the government payroll as the senator's secretary. Senator Caraway says he intends to seek no prosecution. However, Senator Walsh, democrat. Montana, i is studying the law in point and has 1 IntjnlDtp1 ha | tn i tcntion of the committee.
 The senate inquisitors frequently | have expressed dissatisfaction with replies of witnesses and with their lack of information on some points. For this reason, counsel and investi- gators are under consideration.
 Hubbard and Buell. to Testify
 On rcsuming the hearings Mon- day, E. Kent Hubbard president, and Robert C. Buell. secretary and treasurer of the Connecticut Manu- factnrers' association, will be sum- moned. The committee wants to ask Hubbard about statement he made in q letter to Eyanson while his assistant was with Senator Bing- ham that Undoubtedly the results which you have accomplished are far reaching and will bear fruit for some time to come" Eyanson refer- red the senators to Hubbard for an interpretation.
 The committee will finish with the Bingham case before going ahead with other witnesses.

Austin. Tex, Oct. 19 (F) - Camp Mabry, Texas National Guard en- cam nment near here. was destroyed by fire today. The fire started about a. m., and it's origin was not determined i'm mediately. It swept through two buildings quickly and spread to a third.
 Tn buildings were used as store houses for trucks, tents, cots and other National Guard supplies. The highway commission also had a large quantity of supplies at Camp Mahry.
 No estimate of the loss was avail able immediately, but fire officials said it probably would amount to several hundred thousand dollars.
 All fire fighting equipment in Aus tin was rushed 10 the camp, which is several miles from the main part of the city.
 Investigation as to the origin of the fire was promised.
 The camp, established during the World war, has been little used in recent years except as a store depot.

ATTORNEYS WILL CONFER
 TO SPEED TRIAL ALONG
Hearing to Be Resumed Tuesday With State Presenting Further Witnesses in Effort to Prove Elm bezziement Charges-AccOuntant to Tell of Facts Found in Audit of Company's Books.

New Haven, Oct. 19 R}-The en- bczzlement trial of the three officers of the defunct Parker Smith con- pany rested today while the state prepared to pick up where it left off and conclude it's end of the case, and the defense prepared to present it's evidence.
 The trial will be resumed Tuesday morning, Judge Isaac Wolfe, before whom and a jury the case is being heard in criminal superior court, having adjourned it to that day last night.
 It was learned today that States Atty. Samuel E. Hoyt and defense counsel, Benjamin Slade and Charles J. Martin, had arranged a confer- cnce to be held before the resump- ton of the trial for the purpose of agreeing on a plan that would speed up the case.
 State Nearly Done
 The state. which already has fin ished the presentation of it's evil dence on the 26 counts Of embezzle- 'ment by trustee and began offering the evidence on the nine counts of GmbeZZlemcnt by agent, expects to close it's case altogether Tuesday night. This would mean that the defense would begin Wednesday.
 Slade said he would put the three defendants, John E. Parker and Clarence V, and Paul M. Smith, on the stand only if the cease shapes Up in such a way as to make 1t necessary to have them testify in their own behalf"
 States Attorney Hoyt offered In evidence yesterday documents show ink that the three men had with drawn funds from segregated mort gage trust accounts and placed these funds in their treasury, which was company account in the National Tradesmen's Bank &; Trust Go. here.
 Should Have Paid Clients
 The money in these accounts had been paid the company by mort gagers and should have been used to pay off holders of notes issued to finance the mortgages. The defense conceding that the original purpose of the money was ignored, never thcless held that it's use by the com pany was not fraud, as the state charges.
 In opening the evidence on the embezzlement of agent counts. States Attorney Hoyt brought out that In several instances the off cers failed to maintain segregated accounts for mortgage payments for company purposes without leaving an adequate record as 10 what was done with this money. Testimony showed that where one persons financed mortgage, the Parker smith Co. being the agent between the finanCier and the mortgager, 1t often occurred that the mortgager never received the full amount of money he had negotiated for, though the person financing the mortgage had already left the total amount with the company. Wherever this happened the mortgages were "con- struction mortgages" on buildings in the process of construction or not yet begun.
 Comedies All Points
 The defense said it would seek to disproyc any of these facts in the states evidence, since, by agreement with the state it has conceded all the points. It will contend, how
