FreehOlders To
Discuss Matter
OF Expense Fund

President George Buffers today
drew the battle lines for his IA
associated freeholders in their ef-
forts to secure funds to defray the
expenses of investigation necessary
In the drawing up of proposed
county charter announcing that
the board of Is will meet at the
court house Friday night to con-
slider plans for making up their
own budget.
| The announcement followed the
receipt by District Attorney Elmer
w. Heald yesterday of a telegram
in which U. S. Webb, attorney gen.
eral, expressed grave doubt whether
the board of supervisors can ap-
propriate any money at all to pay
the expenses of the freeholders.
The supervisors also took action
following the arrival of the tele-
gram, withdrawing their tentative
approval of $3.50 budget for the
freeholders, and leaving the matter
open pending arrival of a written
opinion from the attorney general
This opinion is expected daily,
and probably will treat more spe-
officially the subject of expense al
lowances for the recently elected
board.
The telegram received by the dis
trict attorney wes: Concur in your
opinion no authority for payment
of salary of member of board of
freeholders. Seriously doubt if au-
thority exists under section 4307
subdivision eight, for payment of
expenses of board. Opinion will
follow"
The Friday night meeting of the
freeholders probably will concern
ways by which members of the
board may raise funds to meet their
own expenses, without calling on
the board of supervisors.

MAKE THREAT TO
BEGIN PICKETINC
Plan To Have Men Parade
At White House To
EmbarrasS President.

WASHINGTON, July 19. U.P)-
A parade of "left wing" members
of the bonus army was broken up
by police as it advanced toward
the White House for demonstra-
ton early this afternoon.
There was no disorder. The men
furled their American flag and
dispersed quietly as soon as the po-
lice ordered them to disband. There
were about SO veterans ir the
group.
WASHINGTON, July 10. (U.1-
President Hoover returned to the
White House today from his
Rapidan fishing camp and found
that a demonstration by ''left wing"
members of the bonus army,
planned to coincide with his arri-
val. had failed to materialize.
AS a precautionary measure, a
police escort met the Presidents
automobile as it entered the Dis
trict of Columbia from Virginia
and rode in advance of him to the
White House. Hoover left his car
at a side entrance and went di-
rectly to his offices.
A dozen policemen patroling the
Pennsylvania avenue approaches to
the executive mansion furnished
the only unusual accompaniment
to the Presidents return.
In the demonstration Saturday
night the police kept pedestrians
out of the White House area but
there was no attempt to divert
them today.
Word came from the headquar-
ters of John Pace, leader of the
"left wing" portion of the bonus
army, that picketing of the White
House would start tomorrow in
stead of today. Walter Flicker, one
of PAGES lieutenants, said the plan
was for a group of picketers to re-
main in front of the White House
executive offices during the hours
that Hoover was there.
Pace is a member of the Workers
Ex-Service Mems league, reputedly
Communist organization. He de-
clared he would have 500 men on
hand. although not nearly that
number have joined his previous
parades.
Maj. Gen. Smedley Butler, fight
ing former marine general, was to
address this evening the 5000 vet
Grams encamped in Anacostia. He
was invited by Walter w. Waters,
B. E. F. commander who is strug-
Cling to prevent a breakdown of
morale and general exodus of
his men.
Today, Butler was to be given
the keys to the bonus city," ad-
dress the veterans and spend a
night as "one of the boys" in a
pyramid tent near the entrance to
the camp grounds.
The veterans bureau today re-
ported that 3085 applications for
transportation had been approved
up to a. m. Transportation and
subsistence funds had been issued
to 2947.
OF the latter number 443 had
been issued funds for automobile
travel. Many of these chuckled
that the government was making
possible for them "a big racket"
They boasted that they were COL
lecting motoring funds, driving a
short distance and returning to the
bonus camps. The money they COL
lected was diverted to food funds,
they said.
The veterans bureau was pre-
pairing a statement 10 deal with
such reports. They had not pre-
viously denied them.
