The men, however, may decide later
to resume the death march" in front
of the White House, according to Rob-
ertson.
President Hoover was in his study at
the White House during the demon
stration, awaiting an opportunity to go
to the Capitol to sign bills passed in

was made that the President had aban-
doned his plans and would remain in
the White House. He retired at 1870,

Change Brings Surprise.
The announcement of the cancella-
ton OF the Presidents plans came as a
surprise, as his automobile and
those of his secretaries and secret ferv-
ice men had been waiting at the front
portico since o'clock. One of Mr.
Hooyer's secretaries, however, insisted
that the presence OF the bonus marchers
in the vicinity of the White House had
not influenced the change in plans.
The Presidents only reason for
wanting to go personally to the Capt.
tol," the secretary explained, was to
sign the home loan bank bill. in which
he was deeply interested. But when

Der. A few moments later approxi-
mately 100 policemen surrounded the
White House, augmenting the regular

which included a number of operatives
brought to Washington from other
cities for special duty during the visit
Of the veterans
In the meantime, police had driven
the marchers from the south side Of
Pennsylvania avenue to the opposite
side of the street and into Lafayette
Park. Here they remained until the
arrival of Gen. Glassford, who ordered
all streets in the vicinity of the White
House cleared of pedestrian as we'll as
vehicular traffic. The bonus marchers
left with large crowd of spectators at
the command of the policemen without
further trouble.
Until long after midnight scores Of
policemen kept the streets vacant for
a block on either side of the White
House grounds. Gen. Glassford said
traffic would be shut of for an indefi-
mite time.
The march on the WhHe House
started from Eighth street and Penn
sylvania avenue. where meeting had
been held. Police who were present at
the meeting followed the veterans as
they marched away.

STATE CURRENCY
URGED BY TEXAN

FORT WORTH, Tex, May 16.-Un-
daunted by the cool reception accorded
in Congress to proposals to print more
currency and "end the depression" q
Texas steel man has his own monetary
plan for his States economic salvation.
George w. Armstrong, ST., Of Fort
Worth Is seeking the Democratic NOM
nation for Governor on platform with
an important plank favoring State
currency system.
In connection with the system he
would create State central bank to
act as depository for the State and It's
institutions and as a reserve bank for
state banks. Power to issue currency
vested in the central bank.
Convinced Of Necessity.
Armstrong Is convinced such a plan
would provide the currency and credit
we so desperately need, restore values
and prosperity to the State of Texas
and free us from the domination Of
wall Street and the Federal Reserve
System"
A resident Of Fort Worth for many
years, Armstrong has been q prominent
critic OF the Federal Reserve System.
He has published several books on eco
nomic and financial matters, including
one explaining his currency scheme, en-
titled, "A State Currency Systen1-To
He'll With Wall Street"
Other proposals in his platform in
clude:
A moratorium on all bond and mort
gage indebtedness until the State cur
rency system could be established and
the values of property and service re-
stored.
Scores Pardon Policy.
Abolition OF the State ad valorem tax
on real estate and substitution OF grad
uated income and inheritance taxes.
The latter, Armstrong contends, Is
"the fairest method OF taxation"
He would exempt homesteads to the
extent of $4,000 valuation from all tax

now paying 10 per cent OF all taxes
