VACATION GOODS ACTIVE
 WITH HARDWARE TRADE
Early Summer Season On Par With 1929 for Current Volume,
 Survey Shows.

New York, July e3-From practi cally every major wholesale har3- ware market comes the encouraging news that vacation equipment, par ticularly sporting goods, is selling very actively. Though strictly staples are enjoying only moderate de- mand generally, there seems to be relatively more activity in the rural districts than in city areas, Har1- ware Age will say tomorrow in it's weekly hardware market summary.
 Never a particularly active period for hardware and housefurnishinSs wholesalers, the early summer sea son appears to be on a par with 1929 for current volume. Wholesale buyers interested in their fall re- ouirements report that prices show no important changes. They also express confidence in the outlook for trade improvement during the fall season. With both wholesale anI detail stocks at their lowest ebb in many years, it is felt that the open ing up of business in September should witness movement for bringing up stocks toward normal. This alone would likely represent substantial volume of business.
 Collections average fair. and in nome sections are not as good as they were last year, but at that the col lection situation is not considered acute, and will, it is believed, inn prove with an increased movement Of merchandise.

 RUMB0LD MURDER
TOnaVanda Man Killed in Car
 at Port Credit

Port Credit, Ont. July 23 P)- Alternate theories of robbery or a gang killing were being pursued by police today in efforts to solve tle staying of Philip C.. Rumbold. 57, TonaWanda, N. Y, contractor.
 His body was found in his auto mobile near the village yesterd ay. The skull had been crushed with a hammer, and a rope was twisted tightly about the neck. A sum Of $500 was missing from his wallet.
 Despite the evidence of robbery police sought 10 connect the killing with the activities of gang of liquor racketeers, who have been intimid It. ing roadhouse proprietors in tae neighborhood
 One theory was that Rumbo:i. driving along the road alone ?t night, had fallen into an ambuscaIe prepared by gangsters and had been slain before the mistake in identity was discovered. His drivers license and letters of introduction were found stuffed into pockets of ris clothing after having been removed from the wallet.
 He left Tonawanda Monday for q fishing trip at Barrie, Ont. At ghe Niagara bridge he obtained a Cana dian customs permit to remain Tn the country 60 days.
 Police said they believed he had been slain elsewhere and the ar driven to the spot where the body was found by a laborer. He had been dead about two hours.

B0RAH WILL MAKE CAMP ALIGN TALKS
Plans Speeches in Northwest
 Against Farm Relief

Washington. July 23 CP,-The voice of Senator Borah of Idaho, which played a leading part in the Hoover presidential race, is being pitched for new campaign efforts.
 But unlike 1928, Senator Borah is preparing to campaign in the agri- cultural belt of the northwest next fall in opposition to the Hoover farm relief and tariff revision programs.
 Borah said today he had been re- quested to make some speeches in the northwest states and added he was seriously considering doing 50.
 Fought For Debenture
 Borah was one of the leaders of the band of western republican in dependents who fought for the ex- port debenture principle of farm relief which was opposed by Presi- dent Hoover. This same band also sought unsuccessfully to contine tariff revision to agricultural prod ucts alone.
 The Idahoan is prepared to defend these contentious of the republican independents. Several of the group are up for reelection this year. and Borah himself is a candidate. He is ready to take the stump. He is ready to contend that the farm problem will not be settled until the program of the independents is adopted.
 It is unlikely that Borah will get into action before mid September or October There is no itinerary for his speaking tour and none will be made until he completes the rest he has been directed to take.
 Considerable interest among party leaders in the capital attaches to the prospective Borah tour in the north west Some leaders are wondering what effect it will have in the pres ldential race two years hence.
 Hoover Also Going West
 Meanwhile, President Hoover is preparing to cross this same agri- cultural territory this summer. The presidential trip, however, is ex- pected to be confined altogether to sight seeing. So far Mr. Hoover has no plans for any speeches.
 Among the places which the Sen ator hopes to visit is Nebraska where friends of Senator Norris, a candidate for renomination, have urged him to speak. Norris was on the opposite side of the campaign stump from Borah in 1928, support ing Alfred E. Smiths candidacy for the presidency.

SUGAR PRODUCERS
 MAY GET BENEFITS
Agricultural Marketing Plan
 May Be Extended to Them

Washington. July 23 P-The benefits of the agricultural market ing act may now be extended to sugar beet and sugar cane growers under an announcement of the federal farm board today that these products had been designated as commodities within the act.
 Invitations have been sent to rep resentatives in the ' sugar beet pro- ducing states to meet in Greedy, Colo, August ? for the purpose of developing a national cooperative marketing program.
 The action taken by the board is an outgrowth of the meeting held in Colorado in June, when farm board representatives conferred with grow CTS representing virtually 75 per cent of the sugar beet acreage of the country.
 The 1929 value of the sugar beet crop was approximately s57,60O, 900.
 It was explained at the farm board that sugar cane producers are not TOW generally organized, into coop eratives. Representative of the industry, however, it was added, will be called in to confer on any steps taken to deal with the commodity.

H|NDENBURG MAKES
 TRIUMPHANT TOUR
German President Feted On
 Trip Down Rhine

Coblenz Germany July 23 (UP) Paul von Hindenburg, former field marshal of the Kaiser's armies and now president of republican Ger many, made triumphal tour down the Rhine from Eltville to Coblenz yesterday while the inhabitants joined in vociferous celebration of the liberation of the Rhineland from allied occupation.
 Cannon salvos, pealing of bells and cheers from flag waving crowds along the banks of the Rhine greet ed the president every few hundred yards as he journeyed down to Co., blenz, formerly the seat of the inter- allied Rhineland commission and from the end of the war until Jan uary. 1923, the headquarters of the United States troops of occupation.
 The weather was overcast but oc- casionally the sun broke through. Every craft on the river, from tiny sports canoes to numbering coal Ddl StS U!uel lON, Ndo utNOi dtth with flags Both banks of the Rhine were ablaze with Colored bunting.
 French Flags Absent
 It seemed significant that on this occasion, no vessels flying the French flag were visible, although ordinarily French craft from Stras- burg are always to be seen, while the flags of other countries were visible at every turn of the river.
 The sun broke through the clouds and was shining brightly when the presidents ship arrived in front of Ehrenbreitstein, where repeated vol leys were discharged and airplanes circled overhead.
 Hindenburg landed at Deutsches Eek, where hundreds of boy and girl singers were drawn before the vast memorial to Emperor Wilhelm I. and sang hymns of freedom. At the Coblenz city hall a liberation festival was held by the Prussian government and was attended by Hindenburg and the Prussian pre- mier, Otto Braun.
 Two streets of Coblenz were re- named Hindenburg and Stresemann respectively, the latter in honor of the late foreign minister.

CANADA PREPARES
 FOR ITS ELECTION
Only One Riding Returns Its Candidate by Reclamation

Montreal, Que, July 23 (UP)- Monday in 175 ridings of Canada, preparatory to the general elections next Monday resulted in only one riding, that of La Salle. returning its member of the house of commons by exclamation.
 In the other 174 ridings contests were developed. In } of them the contests will be three sided In the others only two candidates are in the field.
 The election this year is partic- ularly spirited because of the effort of the conservatives, led by the Right Honorable R. B. Bennett, to unselt the government of Prime Minister Mackenzie King on the tariff issue.
 Bennett and his conservatives de- mand a high protective tariff as Canada's answer 10 the Hawley Shoot tariff recently passed in the United States. The prime minister, leading the liberals, takes the posi- tion that such retaliation is unnecos- sary.
 Bennett has reiterated in cam paign speeches the story of the ar- nexation of Hawaii by the United States, which he maintains WIS brought about by high tariffs on the sugar which Hawaii produced and is warning Canada against laying itself open to a similar eVentuality.

Berlin, July 23 UP)-A falling of in Russian buying in the United States was indicated in yesterda y's issue of the bulletin published py the Soviet trade dele gatlon in Boz lin. It was understood the situation was due partly to a shortage of fo!'- cign currency in Moscow and partly to decision of the kremln 70 transfer some categories of pur- chases from the United States 10 Germany.
 We are not America lovers" the trade magazine said in it's article. The behavior of the Washington government and United States buci- ness interests undoubtedly have not enhanced but have hampered com- merce between the two countries, as non-recognition and lack of credits have evidenced"
 The article added that Moscow still intends to use the services of United States technical experts in developing Soviet industries rapidly.

HOOVER CONCERNED
 ABOUT TAX RAISE
Will Confer With Cabinet Men,
 berS On Economies

Washington, July 23.-OP)- President Hoover is concerned over the possibility of an increase in in como taxes, according to White House information.
 It was this concern which prompt ed the recent searching examination of expenditures which he ordered for all government departments.
 Reports received by the president from Secretary of Treasury Mellon indicate the present fiscal year will be closed next June 30 with a defi- cit of at least s1SO,00O0OO if the temporary tax cut of this calendar year is to be continued.
 The pessimism resulting from the estimate has been further accentuat ed by MT. Hoover's tabulations showing the actual running expenses of the government this fiscal year are scheduled to be at least s209,- 000,000 more than last year.
 Plans Economies
 It is the presidents purpose, the United Press was advised, to cut this contemplated program of expenses by at least s1OO,OOO,0OO without in terfering with the unemployment program. Cabinet members are to be asked at today's meeting for sugges- tions as 10 how the s100,00O,000 can be made up.
 If such a rigid eceonomy can be effected, MT. Hoover will be able to erase 0,0OO,OoO of the deficit which Mir. Mellon has predicted. This probably would enable him to continue the one per cent tax reduc- tion granted last spring because there would be little danger in clos ing the year with deficit of only sS0,000,O00.
 Should he fail, however, the one per cent reduction may have to be eliminated and there is fear that a further increase may have to be made.
 Democrats do not share the appre- hension of the administration lead CTS regarding the state of govern ment finances. They point out that if Melons figures have erred in the past, it has always been on the side of pessmism.
 The last fiscal year was closed three week ago with a surplus of s1S4,O00,O00. Mellon had repeatedly predicted a deficit. It was avoided when foreign governments paid ST. 000,000 in cash on their war debts instead of government bonds and when importers paid s26, ,oO0,QoO ad- ditional in customs receipts as re- suit of the rush to bring in goods be- fore the new Shoot -Hawley tariff rates went into effect

f. ]. P.LEADERS PLAN CAMPAIGN
Huston May Resign at Executive
 Committee Meet
Washington July 23 (UP)

Washington July 23 UP) - Developments were expected yester- day now that the senate has ad- journed, in the plan of republican leaders to reorganize their forces preparatory to the congressional elections this fall.
 Members of the senatorial cam paign committee met yesterday with the result that Senator George H Moses. of New Hampshire, retained his chairmanship under con- promise agreement despite certain demands for his resignation.
 Meanwhile other leaders, who had expected National Chairman Clau- dus H. Huston to resign as soon as the senate adjourned, watched this situation closely. Huston went 10 New York a few days ago but may return soon. He had been expected to call meeting of members O. his executive committee soon-at which time many expected he would submit his resignation-but the call for this meeting has not been sent out.
 Was Under Fire
 Moses has been under fire from the Young Turk" group in the sen- ate for months, first for his designl- tion of western republicans as sons of wild jackasses" and more re gently because of his opposition to the London naval treaty and his ridicule of Secretary of State Stim- son.
 His differences with the campaign committee, which is made up Of the Young Turk" element, were smoothed out temporarily after the wild jackass" incident, but their resentment hared up again recently.
 Moses stood virtually alone for Huston in the recent meeting of o. ticers of the committee and chair men Of the senatorial and congress sional campaign committees with Huston. Some resentment is under stood to grow from the New Hamp- sire senator's championing Huston.
 Would Handicap West
 Some leaders raised the question that Moses criticism of western re- publican senators would handicap the campaign west of the Missssip- pi, where democrats will make a hard fight this year. The com
