A WASHINGTON DAYBOOK
BY HERBERT PLUMNIER.

He talked for long time. He pleaded
for the little children that they might
eat. that they might have just enough
clothes to keep them from freezing"
He cited incident after incident of
suffering. He was insistent that Fed
eral appropriation for relief in such
cases was nothing new.
At his side during the delivery of
this speech sat a tall, mild-mannered,
gray-haired man. Pencil moved fast
back and forth across a notebook in
his fingers. -
Percy Budlong. veteran reporter of
debates in the Senate, was taking down
Caraway's speech.
When the Senator had finished, Bud
long retired to the reporters room to
tranScribe his shorthand notes for the
Congressional Record. When he fin
ished, he returned to the Senate cham
Der and approached Caraway.
In his hand was a check for $50. He
handed it to Caraway with the simple
statement: For the people you de-
scribed d moment ago, Senator" And
Caraway was almost in tears when he
told of the incident later in the Demo-
cratic cloak room.

O|L CONTRACT MAY BE FILLED FROM

A party of oil engineers, operat- ing in the interests of the Ramsey Petrol Organization, a $50,00O, 900 concern of Oklahoma City, will next summer geologize the Inniskin Bay district, to the Westward of Seward, with the definite thought of locat- ing areas. Under authority and di- |rection of Carl Beal, largest single oil property holder in the Okla homa fields the inspection will be thorough; and the plan is to pro- ceed with drilling if reports are in viting, reports the Seldovia Herald.
 The Ramsey company holds op- tion on prospective oil properties at the bay and moreover has al- ready pocketed a neat contract calling for annual deliveries of 2,- 100000 barrels to the Dol Shoten Company, of Japan, from Inniskin oil fields-if oil fields there be.
 The Dol Shoten became actively interested because of the shorter haul from the Alaskan fields to the Oriental market. The outcome was that the Nipponese company contracted for the annual 100000 barrel delivery, fulfillment, of course, hinging upon oil develop ment. With this contract as lever age it was not hard for Alaskans interested in the InniSkin and Cold Bay oil fields to enlist the coopera- tion of the Ramsey people. Hence, the plans for next summers geo. logical survey.

SYSTEM Of RUSSIA
REJECTED BY SPAIN
New Republic Plans to Blaze
Own Trail to Economic
Stability.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
MADRID. December 1.-THE new
Republic of Spain will not follow the
Russian pattern as 1t works out It's
policies of economic reconstruction, ac-
Cording to members of the new cabinet
formed Tuesday by Premier Manuel
AZana.
One of its first acts is expected to be
the introduction of bill in the Ma
tional Assembly for the expulsion OF
certain religious orders, particularly the
Jesuits. and the naturalization Of their
property, as provided in the new con-
StitutlCn.
But on the economic side, it will at
tempe to blaze its own trail.
We have examined the Russian eX-
pertinent, and found it lnapplicable to
Spain and SpaniardS," said Indalecio
Prleto, former finance minister who
was chosen minister of public works in
the new cabinet.
Ratification Tomorrow.
The new cabinet has been approved
by President Alcala Zamora and it will
go before the National Assembly for
ratification tomorrow.
The first preoccupation of the pro-
visional government, Which organized
the early stages of the republic, was its
herited a 5O00OO0O0 peseta deficit and
another l00,000020 was added later
Al economy program was promptly
begun Minister Of War Azana Weeded
out 10000 officers from what he con-
Sidcred an oVerStatfed army.
His action left 10000 officers for q
standing army of 100000 men.
As temporary President of the repub-
lie he retired half of the $4,000 civilian
government employees.
Asrarian Reform Planned.
The agrarian reform bill. involving re-
distribution of large estates. proposes
to raise the number Of small farming
families from about $4,000 to 10000,
using state, church and the indemnif1ed
properties Of the former nobility for
the project.
There are also plans for a Spanish
world commerce.
Wine growers protested that a new
treaty with France gave them nothing,
as Spain could not hope to build up
q wine export trade to compete with
French wines The minister replied
that more French automobiles in Spain
would mean more work for Spanish
garage men and more sales for CONNER
cial distributors of autos and accessories.
The ministry then turned to work on
revision of the ItalO-SpaniSh Conven-
ton, in similar hope of commercial ex-
pansion. At the same time it was an
nOunCed that a new and more adVan-
tageous treaty would be sought with the
United States.
