CONGRESS EXPECTS
TO Be IN SESSION
UNTIL NEXT WEEK
Senate Not Expected to Finish
Relief Bill so as to Ad-
journ Saturday

Washington, June 22.-tP)-Con-
gress now expects TO remain in ses-
sion until the middle of next week,
through at least part of the Demo-
cratic national convention which
opens in Chicago Monday.
The expectation is based on the
scnate's deliberate slowing up in its
consideration of the highly controv-
ersial unemployment relief bill. now
the only major trouble spot on the
congressional program. An agree
ment for final vote Wednesday on
the bill was sought, but even this was
generally believed to be coming too
late for adjournment by Saturday.
The leaders are pressing for hurry
and the house is, to all intents, twid-
ding thum's until the senate catches
up, but a decision Tuesday evening
against staying in session on the re-
lief bill registered definite disin-
c,ination to quit this week.
Before the vote against a night
session was taken, 38 to 80, Senator
Borah Rep., Idaho remarked it
would be impossible to adjourn by
Saturday and others chimed in with
the same idea. Robinson of Arkan-
sas, the Democratic leader. said he
had hoped to get to the convention
and proposed an agreement to limit
debate after Wednesday evening. He
withdrew it temporarily but a deci-
sion on it was expected soon.
The relief bill made little progress
Tuesday out vote was expected
ec-ly in Wednesdays session on the
most disputed point. the section car
rying a $50O,0O0,000 bond issue for
federal public works.
A troublesome conference with the
house is next in prospect, to recon-
cile the senates bill with the Gar
ner $2,300,000,0OO measure bitterly
denounced by President Hoover.
The economy bill issue was viewed
as settled, although the senate still
had to adopt the conference report
with changes made by the house, and
send the bill to the white house.

cord as Result of New
Gallo Policy

Lausanne, Switzerland. June a.
R-The prospect of Franco British
accord on the question of PREPARATIONS
rose over the conference of European
powers Wednesday and warmed what
had been a virtual stalemate into new
activity.
The new hope sprung last night
when Premier Edouard Herriot OF
France informed Prime Minister Mac
Donald of Great Britain that France
was ready to adopt new policy, dif-
fering widely from her previous at
titude. and including the virtual
scrapping of the Young plan.
The new French plan has three
main points. It calls for:
l. Suspension of German repara-
tons payments for one, two or more
years.
2. Continuation of Germany's de-
liveries In kind.
3. A suggestion that, at the end OF
the suspension period, France would
ask that final global sum be fixed,
spread among the United States and
countries receiving PREPARATIONS pay
ments.
The new proposal had developed SO
far that the French and Belgian rep
resentatives even begun a discussion
of how much this final sum ought to
be.
The British delegation indicated
the proposals met with some degree
Of favor with It and intimated the
new French policy might result in q
Franco British accord.
Herriot's suggestions, as commune
Gated to Macdonald, also asked foI
the reconstruction Of Germany and
central Europe, with restoration Of
credits.
If reparations payments were can
celled without the cancellation Of the
debts due the United States, however
q French spokesman said, France
would be economically ruined.

TO REDUCE BURDEN
CARRIED BY WORLD
Scheme is Based on Five Broad
Principles Stated in

WOULD CURTAIL 0FFENsE
Says Best Method Of Aiding De-
Tense is to Discard Weap-
ons Of Attack

Washington, June 22.-(R-Presi-
dent Hoover, in sudden announce
ment at the white house Wednesday,
proposed principles for reducing the
arms Of the entire world by nearly
one third
With Secretary Stimson at his side.
the president read to a small group Of
newspapermen, hurriedly assembled
at the executive mansion, statement
saying 1.-The time has come when We
should cut through the BRUSH" and
adopt arms reductions calculated to
save between slo,0Oo,ooo.ooo and SIS
ooo,ooo,0oo during the next 10 years.
Five broad principles were laid
down by the chief executive and upon
this foundation he proposed among
other things:
Abolition Of all tanks, chemical
warfare and large mobile guns.
Reduction Of one-thlrd in the
strength of all land armies over and
above the so-called police compon-
ent."
The abolition of all bombing planes,
and the total prohibition Of all bonn
bardment from the air.
Reduction in the treaty number and
tonnage of all battleships by one
third
Reduction in the treaty tonnage Of
aircraft carriers, cruisers and destroy
ers by one fourth and or submarines
by one-third with no nation. having
more than $4,000 tons of submersibles.
Approved BY Aides
simultaneously with the presidents
pronunciamento it was learned in
authoritative quarters that the pro-
pcsals suggested already had been ap-
proved fully by Secretaries Stimson.
Hurley and Adams, by the chief OF
staff of the army and the chief Of
naval operations, and by the entire
American delegation at Geneva.
Hoover's broad and drastic plan was
placed. before the Geneva conference
Wednesday, almost simultaneous with
his reading of it to group of hardly
a dozen newspaper correspondents
assembled in his private office
The principles enunciated by the
chief executive for slicing the worlds
ornaments by 80 per cent were read
/ by him as follows:
First. the Kellogg BRAND pact. to
which we are all signatorieS. can only
mean that the nations of the world
have agreed that they will use theft
arms solely for defense.
Second This reduction should be
carried out not only by broad general
cuts in ornaments but by increasing
the comparative power Of defense
through decreases in the power o.
attack.
Third: The ornaments of the
world have grown up in general mu-
tual relation to each other. And.
speaking generally, such RELATIVELY
should be preserved in making re-
auctions.
Fourth: The reductions must be
real and positive. They must first
effect economic relief.
Fifth: There are three problems
to deal with-land forces. air forces.
and naval forces. They are all inter-
connected. No other part of the pro-
posals which I make can be disassc-
ciated one from the other"

statement, and then added:

Further than that, he said In

A New Occupation

Mans ingenuity in eking out a liv-
ing often finds expression in many
odd and curious occupations.
For instance, we read the other
day of a st. Louis man whose Job Is
winding clocks. His customers are
persons who never can remember the
necessity of periodically winding the
old clock to keep it going, so he trav-
els miles every day, winding clocks,
and with solicitous care that his
clientele is always up to the minute
in holding their pace with the flight
of time.
Now comes new genius whose &C.
cupation, according to The New
Yorker, is mattress walking. In more
definite terms, the mattress walker
is a hump reducer. He places the
mattress on the floor, covers it with
burlap and proceeds to remove the
humps and gullies made by the Sleep
er's body, by tramping back and forth
furlong after furlong, till the mat
tresS Is level.
There's soft job for the ambitious
worker with size 10 foot. In treat
ing mattress with due respect
there is but one other occupation
equal to that of ironing out It's
bulgeS and gulches. It Is the Job Of
making them.

ing the small business to have many
advantages that do not accrue to the
industrial giant. These advantages,
especially evident in times Of depres-
sion. may be summed up in one word
-adaptability.
The small manufacturer, content
to 60 along in small way, can adapt
himself quickly to circumstances.
Having no ponderous boards or alb
!sentee ownership, policies can be
changed overnight, inventories held
lat a minimum, the pulse Of demand
checked and accounts, local in many
cases, carefully selected.
Big business, with its economic and
technical advantages, will continue
to be an important factor in our in
dustrial life. Yet, large industrial
organizations are coming to realize
that overconsolidation has Its faults
and in many cases they are now seek
ing to decentralize their activities,
scattering their plants in different
marketing areas.
Hard times are giving ample proof
that the small manufacturer is still
in our industrial picture. He has and
doubtless will continue to have, many
advantages that will permit him to
prosper.
