A plan Of reorganization of the

sponsors of the plan predict it will

Under the plan adopted yester-

members of the orchestra and will
be entitled to vote in all elections

NO DEATH Bed
KRAUSEATS

NEW YORK, Dec. 20 UN.S0
DR.. Arthur Kraus, philosophy in
structor at City College, who de-
termined to Starve to death in
protest against anti-Semitic dem.
onstrations in Poland, has changed
his mind.
From Beth Israel Hospital, the
second he has, entered since he
started hunger fasting nine days
ago, Kraus announced today he
had broken his fast and partaken
of food.
The hunger strike, he an
nounced in a lengthy pronounce.
ment, was suspended chiefly be.
cause:
81. Lack Of q death bed.
"2. Lack of rest of mind"
DR.. KrauS was shifted from his
apartment to one hospital, back
to his apartment, and then to the
second hospital, all because no one
took his strike seriously except a
few friends and his students, and
forcible feeding was tried. D.,
He complained that when he
decided to abandon the strike, he
rang bell for food but the nurses
ignored him. Finally he got some
toast and chocolate and decided
the strike was over.

which would mean a period Of al
most six months inactivity.
But this view is not shared
generally by the Democrats in
Congress, upon whom Governor
Roosevelt will have to rely to
support any program he embarks
upon.
They were disposed today to
compare Mr.. Hoover's rushing"
in the present circumstances to
the manner n which he rushed"
through his moratorium eighteen
months ago by telegraph and
telephone.
That moratorium, in their opin-
ion. started the whole chain Of
war debt trouble, and it is a sore
subject with them.
If the President-elect follows
the advice Of his party cohorts
in Congress-, he will continue
to remain aloof from world prob
lens until the responsibility is
his and his party's. And advices
from Albany indicated today that
Is what he purposes to do.
In that event, it will be up to
Mr.. Hoover to name a commits
sion on his own executive respon-
sibility, or let time and tide carry
the whole business over the dam
to March 4

is in default of $4,000, 900, due
December Is, and over which Con-
greSs is seething beneath the sur
face.
On these two propositions, Con-
greSs generally approved Mr..
Hoover's outline Of policy. On the
other suggestions there was either
marked division Of opinion or
outright hostility.
Congress does not concede the
necessity for such urgent action
as the President recommended,
nor. in fact, for tying up discus
sion Of revising war debts with
the proposed world economic con;
ference and disarmament.
Democrats Favor Waiting
Numerous Senators and Repre-
sentatives pointed out that no
further payment on war debts is
due before June IS, and they be-
lieve the whole matter can very
well be left until after March 4,
to be dealt with by the new ad-
ministration. Democrats in par
ticular expressed this view today.
Typical Of the Democratic view
point was the statement Of Rep
resentative Henry T. Rainey of
Illinois, Democratic leader. Of the
House and perhaps its next
Speaker:
''It would be unthinkabIe to
let President Hoover name dele
gates to participate in q world
economic conference, the OBJ
ject of which is to find .
remedy for the economic ills for
which his policies are response
ble."
On Mr.. Hoover's behalf, it was
explained that he was actuated
only by belief that the world
situation is so critical that pro-
vision must be made for a con-
tinuity of American policy over
the period of changing admins
trations.
Hoover Fears Delay
Unless action is initiated before
March 4, it is his belief that the
new administration cannot get
going on a definite policy before
possibly another three months.

Spanish War Soldiers Getting
$780, 100000 Which Con-
uress Is Asked to Cut Out

A $450,00O, 900 slash in the an
nual Government expenditure for

Congress today by the National
Economy League. r
Elimination of $109, ,000, 900 in
annual benefits to Spanish Ameri-

to World War veterans was in
cluded in this demand.
William Marshall Bullitt, for
mer United States Solicitor Gen.
eral, appeared before the Joint
Congressional Committee on Vet
erans Affairs as the leagues
spokesman.
Permitted To Talk
Bullitt was allowed to testify
after he had explained that al
though he is not a member~of
the league he was authorized
to present its economy program
to the committee. He said:
1.-THE Spanish War, including
all soldiers pay, cost $582, ,OOO,-
900, yet the Government has
already paid the veterans $715,-
100000 or at the rate Of over
$45,OOO for each man who was
wounded or died or suffered
from disease. One hundred
and nine million dollars q year
is paid on account Of 9O-day
Spanish Var veterans who
never suffered the slightest in
jury or disability in the war.
SHOULD BE SLASHED
"This payment of $780, ,OOO,-
900 should be absolutely dis
continued"
Bullitt shifted his attack, say
ing:
"FOr the World War the Gov.
ernment has already paid to the
veterans SO, ,430, 100000 for their
war service and over $1,000, 900
for deaths and disabilities"
The leagues schedule of annual
savings included elimination of

to veterans for disabilities mot

Those seven meant we'll" but
today no one is very grateful to
them. They made the first cor

and one of their number gave rise
to the word "teetotal."
In honor of that pledge, for one
day hundreds of households here
had but bread. cheese and water.
During the industrial revolution
bread was dear, but gin was
cheap. For a century the whole
nation was in the grip of the gin
habit. To remedy this it was de-
cided to switch a nations taste
from gin to the less harmful beer,
by permitting any householder to
open a beer shop for $40.
Within a year 10000 such shops
