leaving on November 28 for Washing
ton. arrived at the mansion around
noon They were taken into MIR. Roose-
velt's study.

Governor, Weissman began, "our
first proposal is that you call a special
session Of the Legislature to appropriate
funds to take care OF all the heedy In
the State"
Roosevelt explained that 5000 600
was available for relief and that the
unemployment relief administration
was handling the situation. He sug-
gested that the men lay their case be-
fore that body.
But" continued Weissman, there
is mass suffering in all parts of the
country"

agreed.
"One specific case is at Amsterdam"

mills are shut down. Another is at
Hudson, and at Port Chester. in Scha-
nectady, Syracuse and Buffalo"
The Governor jotted notes on a pad
of paper as Weissman talked.
Where would you get $1oo, ,000, ,o00?"
Roosevelt asked.
From taxes on all incomes over
$500" was the response.
WeisSman continued: "In the next
day or so you will meet President Hoo
yer. We want you to advise the Pres
ident to withdraw request to Cow
ernors to discourage the hunger march
on Washington. We will hold you
responsible as President-elect for this.
Cut Military Funds.
I'VE also want you to give all CO.
operation to the mareheFs as they pass
through the State"
Stone cut in with: I'VE also ask
that the State reduce all appropriations
for armories and military purposes.
The millions being used for that pur-
pose could be used to feed the hungry"
The Governor said he was without
authority to give the marchers trucks
for transportation and to throw open
the armories at Newburgh and New
York City to house them
In the city of OSsining we will want
food for the marehers," said Stone.
The delegates had asked the armories
