The Waterbury Democrat., 1931-01-10

1 learned here today. As a result of Congressman Goss' discovery the bill has been amended.
 As originally written the first portion of the bill declared that 45,000.0O0 might be appropriated for the purchase of seed, feed for work stock. fertilizer and fuel for tractors. A second paragraph as- serted that in order to benefit by the act the farmer must promise to use the seed and feed thus obtained for food production.
 However. no mention of the fer tilizer and fuel for tractors was made in the paragraph and Congressman n Goss maintained that the farmer therefore might sell the fertilizer and fuel advanced him by the gov ernment and use the money realized therefrom for other purposes. since the second paragraph ruled that he should use only the seed and stock feed for the purpose of crop pro- duction.
 Upon discovering this ambiguity, Congressman Goss called the wording of the act to the attention of Chairman Will Wood of the ap- propriations committee. Congress- man Wood had the bill amended so as to have the farmer promise that the fertilizer and fuel oil would be used by him for crop production as well as the seed and feed.

 PRINCE OF WALES
The Latter Prepares to Visit South America to Boom British Trade - Canada Already in Field

London, Jan 10-(British U. P.)- Tho question of Canadian action to gain new South American markets in connection with the forthcoming journey of the Prince of Wales aroused wide speculation to-day as the date of departure of the royal party approached. The princess trip is acknowledged to be one of his duties as trade ambassador for Bri- t"in and its object frankly to in- crease the market for British pro- ducts in South America. generally. and in Argentina, particularly.
 It is understood that Canada is making an effort to stimulate trade with South America, as instanced by sending of Dr J. H. Brovedani, head of the Spanish Department at Queens University, Kingston, on a lecture tour of the southern repub- lies. In this connection. many Cana dlans now residing in London believe that the Canadian government should coordinate its effect with the princess visit.

err ample and generous time in order to prepare his defense. Schofield explained the reason he was oot ready to go on with the trial as scheduled on Dec 18th was because both attorneys he had thought would represent him, had withdrawn. He gave as q reason for their with crawals, his lack of finances. Judge Booth ordered that the case should be tried on that date but he felt it was hardly fair to place on trial a man charged so seriously without having an adequate defense. He then ordered that the trial should ab- solutely be held Tuesday, Jan 18th.
 States Attorney Lewis on Decern- Ter 18th filed a more specific sta:e- ment in which the names of the four persons appearing against Schofield. were named. They were Dr L. l.. Weinburg William Brown, Wilbur H. Allen and Franklin Wells. The amounts which the accused is alleged to have embedded total more than $7,O00.
