ELIZABETH, N. j., November 3d.
Political spotlight was focused today on
New Jerseys fifth congressional district
as candidates for the vacancy caused
by the death of the late Republican
Representative Ernest r. Ackerman ex-
changed their final campaign broad
sides.
Tomorrow the voters will decide
whether Ackerman is to be succeeded
by Donald H. Mclean, another Repub-
lican; by Percy H. Stewart, the Demo-
cratic nominee, or by one of the three
other candidates running for office.
Nationwide interest in the contest
has been aroused because OF the close
balance Of power between the Democrats
and Republicans in the House of Rep
resentatives as McLean's followers
praised Hoover's administration, while
his Democratic opponent concentrated
his FIRE on the Republican party's record
at Washington.
Both Mclean and Stewart have de-
clared for modification Of the volstead

BROOKHART TO ASK
FARM BOARD FUND
Bill for Extra ST, 200, 900, 900
and Power to Peg Prices
by Embargo Planned.

An additional authorization Of ST.
o00, 0,000, 900 for its revolving fund and
broader powers to be exercised by the
Farm Board In stabilizing prices Of the
principal agricultural products are the
salient features Of a new farm relief
bill made public today by Senator
Brookhart, Republican, Of Iowa. He
plans to introduce the measure as
soon as Congress gets under way.
The additional authorization would
bring the Farm Boards total fund up
to 81 SOC, 100000. Other provisions Of
the Brookhart measure are: authority
to borrow more, II necessary; authority
to establish an import embargo, and
power to establish storage facilities.

Senator Brookhsrt explained that his
bill would contain . declaration Of
policy, directing the board, first, TO fix
the cost of production price for the
various products, and then bid that
price for all that Is offered. It would
apply to corn. wheat, cotton, oats and
live stock products.
With the embargo power included in
the bill, the Senator said that the prices
of the commodities would rise to that
level. he said 1t may be necessary for
a while to buy more than the surplus,
but that any such additional portion
could be disposed of again without loss.
Plans to End Surplus Threat.
With regard to the surplus, Senator
Brookhart said 1t Is the intent Of his
bill that the surplus would not be held
out constantly as o threat on the world
market from day to day, but would be
retained on a longtime basis until 1t
could be disposed Of to the best advan-
tage.
He said that demand for these sur
pluses recur in cycles Of years.

In the event ttat 1t becomes neces-
sary to dispose Of the surplus at loss

loss shall be met, first, by the debenture
plan out of the Treasury, UP to limit
of 81, 1,000, 900, 900, after which an equali-
zation fee or tax on farmers would
operate.
Senator Brookhart said he modelled
the bill on ideas which were outlined
by julius II. Barnes to House COM
mittee in 1919 IN connection with leg
islation being considered at that time.

LONDON, November 30.-The "mys-
Eery visit" to Great Britain of M.
FIandin, French finance minister. ended
today when he left for Paris.
The visit had stirred political circles
byer the week end.
Sir John Simon, British foreign Sec
ketary, and o number of friends saw
M F4andin OF. The French minister
had declined to discuss the object Of
his visit except to say that 1t was a
shooting trip. He was a member of
sir Conner Berry's party which went
pheasant hunting in Buckinghamshire
Saturday, but it was revealed, neverthe-
less, that he was also guest last night
ut an informal dinner given by Sir John
Eimon ct which Neville Chamberlain,

HARRISBURG, Pa, November 3d.
Gov. Pinchot today, replying to re-
cent letter from United States Senator
James J. Davis, said he would give 20
unemployment relief one-fourth Of his
annual gross income this year.
The Governor said the Senator's
proposal that the Pinchots and the
Davises give their entire annual in
come to relief was obviously not in
attention"
Gross 1880 Income $52,650.
The Governors statement added:
For 1880, the last year reported to
the United States Treasury Depart
ment, my net income, upon which the
Federal income tax is figured, was
$37,i39.49. My gross income was
$52,650.46. My contributions to relief
this year will amount to one-quarter
Of my gross income for 1880.
"If my gross income in 1881 Is
larger than in 1880 will contribute
The Governor opened the controversy
by asking Secretary of the Treasury
Andrew Mellon to loan Pennsylvania
81, 100000 of his personal funds for
unemployment relief. Mellon declined
to loan the money.
Davis Proposed Both Give All.
Then Senator Davis, in a speech
here, jestingly remarked that If Gov.
Pinchot had given 100000 along
with Mellon and some other wealthy
Pennsylvanians, the remainder Of the
States residents would not be bothered
with supplying funds FOR unemploy-
ment relief.
The Governor replied with the sug-
gestion that Davis give Of his funds to
unemployment relief In Pennsylvania
in proportion to the amount the Gov
ernor gives.
Senator Davis replied that he and
Mrs. Davis would give all Of their in
come and real estate holdings II Mr..

Secretary Stimson withheld COM
ment today ON the Manchurian situa-
ton.
The Secretary, in declining to respond
to questions. said the situation had been
discussed sufiiciently lately.
His only remark on peace moves in
Paris was that discussions were going
on toward the establishment Of q neu-
tral zone along the Peiping-Mukden
railway.
Americans Are Moved.
Frank p. Lockhart, American consul
general at Tsientsin, in q cablegram
dated November 90 reported that the
remaining American members of the
Methodist mission In the Chinese city
had been brought into foreign conces-
sions by Consul George Atcheson, jr.,
and three officers Of the American In
fantry contingent stationed at Tsientsin
Those brought to safety were Mr.. and
Mrs. A. B. Coale, Denver, Colo; Miss
Myra A. Jacquet, st. Paul, Mimi; Miss
Mary z. Bedell, Seattle, Wash; Miss
zelia Prentice and Miss Maggie May
Prentice, both of Wray, Colo, and q
Miss. Baronn of whom the State De-
partment has no record of address.
Tension Is Relaxed.
Tension was noticeably lessened to-
day. After the excitement with Tokio's
foreign Office over statements wrongly
attributed to Secretary Stimson by a
japanese news agency had been dis
solved in mutual clarif1cation and
understanding, the State Department
was able to look with more hope upon
the troubles between China and Japan.
Reports that the Japanese troops which
had headed for the key city, Chinchow,
had withdrawn toward Mukden were
considered encouraging.
Significance was attached to signs of
negotiations for establishing neutral
zone along the Peiping- -Mukden rail-
way. Particularly was this indication
liked, rs the State Department has con-
tended alt along that ultimate solution
OF the troubles Of the two nations must
be settled between themselves. So di-
rect talk on one point, no matter how
small. is viewed as a good beginning.
