BOsTON WOOL

Boston, May 2.-R9-The turnover
in wool during the past week was
very moderate and prices were M
what easier. The dullness Of the mar
ket was partly q seasonal feature.
Some commitments. however, had been
withheld pending outcome Of h Lon.
don sales. While the lower prices at
London have not had q marked effect
on domestic prices, In some cases bids
slightly below the quotations OF two
weeks ago were more freely accepted
after the London sales than before.

5000 PICKED FOWL
DUE TO ESCAPE AK
Exhibits In Chicago Poultry Show
to Include Hybrid "Turken"
! From Cross Breeding.

BY the ASSOCldLeu ETSSb.
CHICAGO, November 23.-Six thou
sand two hundred Scions of the ariStoc-
racy Of fowl and an extra bakers dozen
that aren't in the social register. yet will
be able to write home that they escaped
the big THANKSGIVING massacre.
The $500 survivors will be the tur-
keys, ducks, pheasantS, geese, chicks
and chickens and their relatives who
are being taken for O ride this week to
the annual poultry show here-one Of
the animal Conventions" of the Farm
week conclave that begins November 30
and includes the International Live
Stock Exposition, American Farm Bu-
reau Federation and other agricultural
gatherings.
The odd-dozen saved from Thanks
giving execution are the 4-months-old
brood Of ''turkens" under observation
of Rev. Castor Ordonez, head Of the
biology department at Depauw Univer-
sity. He induced an aristocratic white
Austrian turkey to mate with Rhode
island Red hen, and Is raising the
youngsters with the hope the hybrids
will father and mother q new race. The
meat, he said, is tastier and the fowl
more efficient In producing marketable
flesh than either turkey or chicken.
Entries at the forthcoming poultry
exposition include $500 from Illinois

In the final "a hours Of its life, the
Seventy first Congress handed Presi-
dent Hoover 184 bills. Over 400 were
dumped on his desk In the last four
days.
Question Controversial.
Seeking relief, President Hoover
asked Attorney General Mitchell
whether it was necessary for him to
follow the almost unbroken precedent
of constitutional history and sign bills
he favored before Congress adjourned.
Mitchell ruled it was not, but adj
vised the President the question was
controversial and suggested signing all
important measures before the last
gaval fell to avoid possible conflicts.
Mr.. Hoover followed this advice. He
paid the customary visit to the Cap
itol March 4. and cleared his desk OF
all but 10 bills. He signed II Of these
March and the last one March 8.
Gases involving two of these 10 laws

ruling ON SIGNING
OF BILLS REQUESTED
Attorney General Would
Settle Question Bothering
Presidents Half Century.

Attorney General Mitchell has asked
the United States Supreme Court to
decide q question that has proved a
source OF worry and Inconvenience to
Presidents for more than a century.
:, At every adjournment of Congress,
the Chief Executives desk is flooded
with the laSt-hour output Of tired and
harassed legislators. Since the Gov
eminent began, Presidents have sat up
most Of the night before Congress
ended, studying and signing q multi
tude Of bills.
The difficulty arises through q pro-
vision OF the Constitution giving the
President 10 days to return to CONGRESS
bill he does not approve. II he does
not DO so when Congress is in session
It becomes q law automatically. II
Congress adjourns before the To-day
period expires, the measure dies through
q pocket veto.
Within recent years this task has
become nearly physical inpossibility.
