Severe Earth Shocks
 Fail to Harm Canal

Panama City, March H)-Seyere earth shocks which rocked the Isthmus of Panama at 10:44 p. m last night, did no apparent damage to the Canal
 The shocks were described as the strongest since those of -1913-1914. Residents were thrown into q panic and rushed pcll-mell from creaking frame houses, where beds moved and china crashed. Neither injur ies nor material damage were re ported anywhere.
 Long after midnight crowds were seated around public parks in Pan anna City, hesitant to return to their homes in the fear of a repetition of the tremors which were strong enough 10 displace the needle in one of the two Canal seismographs.
 The All America Cable company's Balboa station, reported that the movement was recorded on - inches of receiving tape, signifyihe that the duration of the tremor was between eS and 50 seconds.

NO MORE LIQUOR
 LAWS PROBABLE
Congress Unlikely to Adopt More
 Plans This Session

Washington, Mar. s UP)-Fur- ther prohibition legislation at this session of congress seemed improb- able today in view of contrary opin- ion in the house over the adminis- tration's enforcement program.
 So far only one of the Wicker sham law enforcement commissions proposals, all of which were ap- proved by President Hoover, has been acted upon-the suggestion that the prohibition bureau be transferred from the treasury to the justice department A bill to effect this shift has passed the house and probably will be approved by the senate.
 Two Others Presented
 Two other commission bills have been considered by the house judi ciary committee. These would amend the Jones law 10 define slight and casual" prohibition Nlo- lations. and hcstow upon United States commissioners power 10 try persons charged with minor ot- lenses.
 Both of the measures. which nave been considered together by Ju- dietary subcommittee. have brought forth as many counter proposals, modifying amendments and ad- verse criticism that agreement, even within the committee, appears further away now than month ago.
 Ecn. Bachman, republican, W. Va dry member of the sub-com- mittcc. suggested in a speech before the house yesterday that court con- ccstion be relieved merely by creat- ing more judicial districts in the states where dockets are most .cIocced. He said the commission's recommendation to amend the Tones law might be adopted also but indicated he would oppose any extension of court commissioners powers.
 Vets To Oppose Plan
 Other subcommittee members have still other opinions and the wet minority on the full commit tee is prepared to oppose all legls- lation so far recommended for re- lief of congestion in federal courts.
 A half dozen further recommen- dations of the law enforcement commission, which were referred to various house committees. have been completely ignored and there seems no possibility they will be acted upon before adjournment.

 Varied Interests
 The joint work of Mr. de Sager and l.. T. ThicnCs, executive Sccrc- tary of the Hartford County Y. NJ. .C. A.. has resulted in completed programs for interest clubs among boys and young mon Of the county that include already such interests as aviation, sculpture, electricity, wood carving, wood work, nature study. leather craft. metal craf;, music stamp collecting, travel and pottery. These programs compie- mcnt the work of the Junior lnSti tutc of Arts and Scicnccs-an or ganiZation which fosters ConStruc- tive hobbies by providing continuing incentive and direction. The Hart ford county Y. M. C. A. has engagc1 the services of the Junior Institute of Arts and Sciences in order 10 make q vast supply of materials, methods and programs available. The plan adopted by the Hartford County Y. M. C. A. in these interest club programs is 10 discover all th" natural practical vital interests that boys and young men are likely to have, and then to gather toGcthc" the available material connected with those interests from numerous Gollrccs.
 Boys working in metal craft will leave the stcrcotypcd methods of modern American life to draw in spiration in the craft of the Greeks and the Romans. They will study the methods of the Indians: they will absorb work done by the peo- pie in Turkey and Syria today.
 Sculpture in Soap
 Boys interested in sculpture Us inS soap as a medium, will sec how their efforts gre simi!@r 10 the carly efforts of great sculptors, like Phi dias of Greece and Rodin of France. Boys in clubs interested in clcctri. city will range in their crafts from simple electrical coils o advanced radio. They will use technical mo- ton pictures. released by national electrical manufacturing concerns. They will study the lives of the pioneers in the ficld-of Bell, or Steinmctz. of Edison.
 Boys collecting stamps will have pictures available also-picturcs as colorful as the countries from which the stamps come. And there will be other things on which they may feed their curiosity. such as lantern slides and pamphlets. Boys interest cd in wood craft not only will make chairs and desks and tables. bui will also learn the life of the people of Obcrammcrgau. who arc motel for their Passion Play, for thctr skill in wood carving. and for thci" beautiful home life. Wherever pos Slblc. he standards and ideals Of famous guilds will be incorporated into the ideals of the club.

 The purpose of such training is not to make highly skilled artists or artisans. Where a boy shows special apttudcs or desires in any given field through his clubs. the normal procedure will be to help him enter q school for thorough

GRUNDY ADMITS HE
 EMPLOYS DOANE
"No Apology" to Make for Acts,
 He CoolIy Tells Senate

Washington. March 8 P)-Sena- tor Grundy says he has no apologies to make for transferring records and files from the American Tariff league news bureau to his quarters at the senate office building, for employing ono of his old associates of the bureau to help him with the tariff bill, nor for permitting him to uce the facilities of his office.
 The senate lobby committee is conducting an investigation of news paper reports that officials of high tariff organizations have set up headquarters in Grundy's office :. stoutly denied by the senator, and ne:;t week will examine John Lerch of New York, an attorney, in con ncction with these charges.
 Back in the days before GrundS was appointed 10 the senate when he frankly didn't mind being called q tariff lobbyist, he was in charga of the leagues news bureau an.l Warren F. Doanc of Philadelphia was one of his employees there,
 Since he entered the senate Doan, has continued to work for him. tcS- timony before the lobby committee developed, at salary of $500 a month and has occasionally used T desk and q typewriter in the scna- tors office.
 Senator Blaine, republican, Wis consin, member of the committee last night asserted in the senate that Doane was employed to per form exactly the same work he for merly did for the tariff league and that the records and files of th> news bureau had been removed tc Grundys office.
 Grundy was quick 10 reply. H. had no apologies" to make, he said. for hiring Doane or for using what he termed his own data anG that of Doane's from the leagues news bureau. If he could find siN more like Doane, he added, he would employ them, too.
 During the day, Doane and Ar. thur l.. Faubel, secretary of th5 American Tariff league, had ap, pearcd before the committee. Doane said he had been employed bA Grundy at $500 a month for six or seven years and that he had used the senator's office for his work al the capitol. Faubel said he hai been in Grundy's office only twice Lerch had been summoned but wa: unable 10 be present.
 Prepared GOff'S Address
 Faubcl also said he had prepared data for an address on the tariff, delivered by Senator Golf, republi- can, West Virginia, and Blaine re- fcrrcd to this testimony in his speech last night, calling forth tho statement from Golf, that Faubcra connection with the speech had con. sisted in looking up certain statis- tics and corroborating certain facts.
 The West Nirginian accused th3 lobby committee of unfairness il; not reporting to the senate testi- mony that Eugene R. Pickrcll Of New York had furnished data for addresses to Senators King, demo crat, Utah, and LaFollctte. inde pendent republican, Wisconsin.
 This in turn brought forth an eX- planatory statement from LaFol- lctte, who said Pickrcll had supplied him with a .factful statement on imports and exports" which was used only for it's statistical infor- nation"
