was accounted for by professionals
operations for both the upside and

Pool activity was noticeably alb
sent. Failure Of General Motors to
develop further leadership on the
upside after opening unchanged en-
couraped interests working for lower

CATTLE PRICES

Present Figures Are Lowest
Seen in Years; Sheep
Unchanged.

Drought conditions throughout
the country are affecting every
major market in livestock as well
as the grain trades. In local trade
slaughter class cattle are at the
lowest prices seen here in many
years. Lack Of grazing facilities
are being sharply felt by all ami
NAL raisers with the result that
cattle are being offered at sacrifice
prices. The packers are unable to
accommodate the forced supply, not
having facilities to take care of the
fresh meat.

Optimistic Officials See Vast Consequences If Farley Succeeds - Many of Plans Involved In Meeting Conform to Proposals.

Geneva, Jan. q tR-Thc Lonlon naval conference, which will be watched eagerly in League os \a- tions circles. is generally looked upon here as a proving ground for the work Of the League of Nations through ten difficult years.
 Three outstanding purposes of the leagues builders and packers will be deeply affected by the outcome Of the negotiations whereby the United States, Great Britain. Japan, France. and Italy will seek a scheme for reduction in their marine fieht- irs forces.
 First Reason Cited
 First: The cause of disarma- ment, named in the leagues cove Mant as fundamental aim, will be tremendously advanced if the five naval powers find a basis of agree. nent. Such an acre cment would stimulate the leagues preparatory disarmament commission in its wor'i for a world disarna ment coner- ence. It would inevitably have vital bearing on the question of lann forces, which iS so closely inter- related with the problem Of naval strength.
 Second: Success at London--so league authorities believe would greatly encourage the United States 10 take further steps in cooperation with other nations for solution of in ternational problems. It is clearly ecognIzed at Geneva that coopera- ton oy the Wa ashington government is essential 10 full realization of the Leagues objectivcs of peace and sc- Curity.
 Cooperation Would Result
 Third: The spirit Of cooperation and goodwill among nations, it is felt, would bloom anew if the repro sentatives of the great powers should reach a successful conclusion. Ready as the leagues friends are to point to evidences of international condi- dence and goodwill, they frankly concede that much remains to be cone before the ideal is attained n this respect.
 Observers at Last Hopeful
 It would be inaccurate to say that Geneva observers are bubblinc ov.r with confidence with regard to the outcome of the London barley: the memory of the 1927 Geneva confer Hncc is still too vivid But it would be equally wrong to say that the at titude around the leagues central office is pessimistic.
 Perhaps it would be fair suIl- mary Of authoritative sentiment here to say that it ardenty hopes for success at London, realizes that the difficulties are formidable, and is
New Britain herald., 1930-01-21

taat the powers would come to the conference table in an entirely naw intemational atmosphere; that the oll doubts anI jealouslcs that hare teset world diplomacy would have to give way 10 the frank and open Hays Of peace.

 The constitution, he said today. gives the senate and house CO., extensive and equal powers, and the supreme court has ruled that tn , two branches have balanced author- ity and that neither upper or lower houses' exist in congress.
 Mistaken in Names
 Persons are as much mistaken when they refer to the upper hou ;e when speaking of the senate" Speaker Longworth said, "as they are when they refer to the low>r branch when talking about tue house."
 Speaker Long worth said he ha ] noticed many persons who were SUD- posed 10 possess accurate knowled 3e of the functions of congress were creating through such characterizl- tions an erroneous impression among the people at large.
 Historical. editorial and news writers, particularly those away from Washington" Speaker Long worth explained, "as well as some prominent news commentators hroadcasting over the radio have been guilty of this"
 He pointed out that the constit1 ton divided the powers of the branches so the house could deul with internal affairs and the scna, ( with external matters.
 Powers Arc Div jded
 The house is vested with the so.: power to originate bills raising re-. cnuc,' the speaker said, 'the sen. ate has the power to pass treati", with foreign governments and ap. prove diplomatic appointments. Ir addition the house originates >l general appropriation bills and cou.t eliminate any branch of government 1T 1t desired, merely by refusing tt approve any one measure"
