FATHER OF THE
PUBLIC MARKET

Thomas P. Revelle, who Is years ago
| IN Seattle was known as the Father
of the Public Market" is today a
candidate for the superior court bench
of King County, position No. a.
Mr.. Revelle enters the campaign
with record of 81 years in civic work
and activities and is now carrying on
with the same high ideals he brought
into his public life quarter of a
century ago-equality and justice for
all.
Twenty-seven years ago. Mr.. Revelle,
a young man out of the University of
Washington law school, instituted the
first public market system in Seattle
(The Pike Street Market) where the
producer meets the consumer and
markets his products at fair profit
to himself and low cost to the user.
Twenty-Five years ago, as member
OF the city council, he uncovered and
defeated the great garbage steal" He
also prevented the granting of an ex-
elusive rail franchise for the Lake
Union Belt Line, thus saving thous-
ands of dollars to Seattle shippers.
From that time to this, his record
has been one of service to his fellow
men, of watching over the rights of
the common people; of seeking
remedies to existing evils and prevent
ing injustices.
In his campaign for the judgeship,
Mr.. Revelle is voicing vigorous opposi-
ton to proposals for trials by affi-
davits. He is opposed to increasing

poor man will be prohibited from APP

ent system of handling receiverships,
whereby both creditors and share
holders are forced to pay excessive
costs to receivers and friends OF the
court being paid for past political
services in this manner.
Keep the scales of justice balanced"
is his campaign keynote.

by overthrow of Premier Edouard Herriot's government.
 The unexpected change in the situation occurred when the for eign affairs and finance commis- sions of the chamber rejected a resolution drafted by the govern ment, providing for payment to the United tSates with reservations.
 The commissions then went to work on a resolution of their own, embodynig the original proposal for default by postponing the pay ment, regardless of consequences
 As result of the defeat of the governments resolution in commit tee, the two commissions resumed consideration of the resolution, urging default Thursday by ad- journing payment, regardless of the consequences.
 There appeared to be actual dan ger of the governments defeat and French default.
 Herriot left the commissions to take part in the chamber debate.
 "The United States" Marin told the chamber, "must take the con- sequences of the Hoover morato- rum, which destroyed the Young plan. The burden of destruction must not be placed on France or her European allies"
 Herriot's humorous interiections ruined Marin's attack, and the grey haired, feeble old legislator started repeating his phrases and lost the sympathy of the deputies. Marin tried to draw a parallel in a quarrel between landlord and tenant. Herriot interrupted with everyone knows the tenant must pay his rent and then argue" The sally was greeted with roars of laughter.
 Marin urged France not to fol- low Britain's lead.

 Waterbury is to be honored with one post as doorman and one as messenger as a result of last nights caucus. It is likely that Senator Lawlor and Senator-elect Hackett will divide the posts between them. Several local candidates are al- ready being mentioned for the posts, which carry salaries.
 At the caucus the senators also voted to use its power to force the g. o. p. majority in the house to give democrats flair treatment" in committee assignments. The same caucus named Senators Bergin, Cooney and Thompson, the latter of Middletown, as steering commit tee to confer with the house, re- publican leaders regarding such ap- pointments.

PRESIDENT MAY
 LOSE SEVERAL
 OF HIS CABINET
Many Runl0rs About the designations of Differ- ent Members - Secre- tary Wilbur Is Surely Going Out
BY HENRY F. MIssELWITz

BY HENRY F. MISSELWITZ (United Press Staff CorrespOndent)
 Washington, December 13 - (UP) - President Hoover today faced the possibility of a break-up in his cabinet between now and the end of his term, March 4.
 Rumors of resignations from the Hoover administration have been recurrent in the past month. Most cabinet members have denied they intend to "desert the ship" at the last moment. Some May find their private interests make 1t necessary for them to withdraw.
 Secretary of the Interior Ray Lyman Wilbur, for example, IS considering resigning before the end of the year.
 Dr Wilbur throughout his ten- ure in the Hoover cabinet has re- tained his title as president of Le- land Stanford University, at Palo Alto, Calf.
 Each year the stanford authori- ties have extended his leave of ab- sence. However, their last exten- sion expires on December 31 = and they are understood to oppose another extension.
 Secretary Wilbur, faced with the necessity of choosing between the presidency of the university or the cabinet post for two months, Is expected to choose Stanford.
 It is believed that Dr Wilbur has to all intents and purposes handed President Hoover his resignation and is merely waiting until the chief executive can find a suc- cessor.
 The White House said nothing official was known of Secretary Wilbur's plans. The secretary when questioned, said:
 T still have until the end of the month to dicide and I prefer to take, all the time. I can on so weighty a matter"
 Secretary of Agriculture Arthur M. Hyde, reports have persisted, has been considering returning to private life shortly.
 He has. not denied considering resigning before March 4, but in response to questions said:
 T think now I may stick on un- til the end of the administration. We'll have to wait and see."
 Some other cabinet officers have been reporteh Ion the fence" Former Secretary of Commerce Robert Lamont quit the end of last summer to go into phivate in- dustry -- and othors may follow suit.

 Upon the motion Of Alderman George R. Guilfoile, the board adopted an amendment to the local slaughter ordinance so that hence. forth a licensed veterinarian will The amendment was suggested by Health Officer Dr F. J. Godfrey and had been under consideration for tn. past week by a committee consisting of Alderman Guilfoile, John Derwin and c. Arthur Du- Bois. The committee reported fav- orably.
 Tine board also adopted an amendment to the ordinance gov erning water rates which makes the new regulations read as fol- lows concerning the minimum charges each six months: Five eighths inch pipe $5; three-quar- ter inch pipe. $6; one-inch pipe, S8: all over one inch, $10. The bills have been sent out each six months reading this way while the ordinance only set up the mini- mum charge by the year instead of by the half year. The amend ment adopted does not affect the existing rates.
 Five petitions were received for the abatement of taxes, three for postponernent of taxes and three for the abatment of interest and lien fees. A request for an abate- ment fer an ex-serviceman was also received and recommends ton from Tax Collector William A. Ennis was received recommending that tax bill of $35 against Nor man D'Ambrosi be abated because he is an ex-serviceman. All these matters were referred to the conn mittee on abatements. Similar acc ton was taken on one petition for the abatement of personal taxes and one petition for the abatement ! of q sprinkling assessment.

Debt Payment of

IJndersecretary of State Castle handed the United States note to Ambassador Paul May at the state department. The reply was under stood to be adverse, save for a promise for later review of the debt agreement.
 Payment by Italy of $1.245,437, its current debt installment, was assured.
 States remained in doubt as the chamber of deputies considered a new note.
 Payment by the smaller coun- tries of Europe likewise was uncer- tain. Officials here expected that some of the weaker ones would de- fault.
 Secretary Stimson received the latest British note at Woodley, his home, as he prepared to retire last night. Sir Ronald Lindsay, British am bassador. arranged hurried appointment and presented his gov ernment's note near midnight. Un- der the pressure of time, the diplo- matic wheels are moving faster now than ever in peace time his- tory.
 Stimson studied the note before retiring, officials at the state de- partment learned of the document from United Press dispatches. Stimson went to the White House to lay the note before the cabinet this forenoon.
 Upon returning to his office. he called in Assistant Secretary of State Bundy, department financial expert, and Herbert Feis, econ omic advisor, to consider the Brit ish note.
 While the phraseology of Lon- don's communication was sorne- what vague, it was interpreted by officials after preliminary examina- ton, to mean:
 eve understand that because of constitutional provisions. the Amer ican administration cannot prom ise in advance that the Thursday payment will apply on the revised war debt. Yet we maintain our position that 1t must. and will make | payment with that reservation, You have promised in previous notes that the whole dobt structure will be reviewed. and we are mak- ing our payment in the light of that promise"

 "The British view" said the Evening News, lis that, to make payment of the principal and in- terest under that agreement would be to give new life to an arrangement which it is impossible to fulfill under changed world conditions. .. Britain safe- guards her position by insisting on the case she is to put forward for later consideration"
 The Star said the note is mere ly designed to emphasize the Brit ish viewpoint and adds that when the proposed conference discusses a complete settlement. "the Brit ish representatives will ask that in event of a lump sum being paid in a full settlement, this weeks in- stallment should be regarded as payment on account of the larger sum-"
 It was particularly emphasized that the note recognized only con gress, not the administration, could change the debt agreement.
 In the house of commons, Ne vile Chamberlain, chancellor of the exchequer, told Josiah Wedge wood Britain Is not bound to united front in dealing with the United States.
 We are entitled to, and intend, If able to do so, to make sep arate settlement with the United States" he said.
 Chamberlain said during his re- cent visit to Paris. no arrange ments were made to modify Bri- tain's independent war debt posi- ton. :.

 Waterbury backed the ''new guard" choices in the caucus last iiAht although this city is SUD- pos)d to be an '.old guard" strong hold. This fact was the cause of muc hcomment and speculation to-day throughout Connecticut.
 Senator Joseph H. Lawlor of this city nominated Senator Goldstein and voted for him. Attorney Blackall was supported by the so- called "old guard. Of course, it was discovered at last nights caucus. Senator-elect Blackall was put forward as Q candidate for president pro tenn at late date and upon the retirement from the race of Senator Joseph Cooney of Hartford because the "0ld guard" chieftains discovered only a few days ago that Cooney was below the required age limit. This slowed up the Blackall campaign considerably.
 Waterbury also backed Senator Frank s. Bergin for the office. of majority leader. He was elected unanimously. And In the contest for, the post of clerk of the senate the local senators again scored with Q winning candidate. Rep resentative William M. Citron of Middletown was chosen for clerk. He is a ''new guard" leader. He defeated former Senator Vincent w. Dennis of Hartford. There were no factional lines drawn on sLto nAnxaot l,nu,avar au abnwr, hu the fact that MT Dennis was nom- mated by Senator Goldstein.
 On the vote for clerk. posi- ton which carries q $3,500 salary, Citron was supported by Attorney BIackall. Dennis 1t was reported, had previously entered into an agreement with Natoinal Commit teeman Archibald McNeil of Bridgeport and the "new guard" downstate senators against Black all for president pro tenn and, therefore, was considered a "fav- orite son. candidate for the clerk ship.

COLONEL HOUSE
 IS PREDICTING
 FOR ROOSEVELT
Adviser of Woodrow Wil- son and Now for Presi. dent-EIect Tells What Is Likely to Happen

New York, Dec IS. (UP)- Colonel Edward M. House, advisor of Woodrow Wilson and President elect Roosevelt, predicted to-day that the incoming Administrations first task in effecting it's foreign policy will be to 'liquidate the war and free world trade of its shackles."
 The forecast was contained in an article House wrote for the quar- terly journal Foreign Affairs" which termed the forecast ''author- ative'' in it's discussion of the new administration foreign policy.
 Houses views of that policy, condensed by isues. were:
 Tariff:-Roosevelt will under take to ''hquidate the war and free world trade of it's shackles." There should be an adjustment of tarif policy to safeguard foreign loans but at the same time protect domestic industry--a competitive tariff for revenue" This would mean farmers would regain foreign markets and domestic industry, it's farm market.
 War Debts:-'I think the new administration should make the greatest possible effort to put the war debts once for all on such Q basis that they are no longer a political question in the world" This is tD be accomplished through international conferences without default or postponement of install ments. The present uncertainty de- lays return of normal economic conditions.
 Disarmament: - "The great problem of government Is how to reestablish a sense of security in the world. If we are sincere in preaching disarmament, we must help to give nations cause to feel that their lands and possessions are safe. Disarmament follows secur- ity. It cannot be achieved under any other circumstances"
 The Far East:--America has a double interest, maintenance of the "Open door" and maintenance of the sanctity of treaties. "The open door" is subject to negotiation. If Japan and China settle their dis pute without further bloodshed by direct negotiation the real aim of the American people will have been nCitACVCus
 The New Deal:--"The belief that under MT Roosevelt our foreign policy will be generous and hu- mane is well founded. Coercion, material or moral, will not be used to enforce our will in settling any straight forward and honest diff ference of opinion. But while we shall extend justice we shall also demand it."
 House charged that Americas prosperity had been purchased at the cost of foreign loans to finance foreign purchases of American gods. He citeyd President Hoover's arguments of the ''invisibles'' in foreign trade.
 Mir Hoover's argument is typical of the new era economies in 1928 and 1929, which implied that debts can be created without considera- tion of how they are going to be paid. Foreign trade and foreign loans collapsed together" he wrote.
