Mayor James j. Walker issued

NEW CLASS BILL
WATTS D. K. BY
COMMITTEE
Measure, Toned Down to Meet
Financiers' Opposition, Due
For Favorable Report

The new Glass banking re-
form bill, considerably toned
down but containing enough
"teeth" to restrict the use of
Federal banking funds in
speculation, was before the
Senate Banking and Currency
Committee today for a favor
able report to the Senate.
The measure was virtually re-
written in it's important sections
to overcome the opposition Of
financiers and bankers.
Penalty Absent
It's revised form would give the
Federal Reserve Board authority
to shut off the speculative loans
of any member or national bank
whenever it saw fit.
1t would create an open market
committee to prescribe securities
which could be purchased by
member banks, but it failed to
provide any penalty if member
banks refused to follow the COM
mittee's choice.
The original ban on loans to
brokers and security houses was
eliminated, but all collateral loans
in the future would have to meet
the boards approval.
The board was given power to
revoke the 15-day rediscount loan
privileges of any member hank,
if its brokers' loans we're disap-
proved.
Hand On Alien Loans
Instead Of banning foreign
loans as originally, the bill would
give the board power to super
wise and approve such loans.
Other sections would create a
Federal liquidating corporation to
aid depositors of closed banks,
permit branch banking by ma
tional and State member banks
upon the same conditions as
State banks, and restrict banks
in the purchase of investment Sc
curities.
If member banks ran wild"
in speculative loans, the Federal
Reserve Board would be empow-
cred to suspend them,

PATMAN PLAN.

An increase in the money

to boost commodity prices, Owen
D. Young, chairman Of the Gen

telegram to Representative Pat
man CD of Texas.
Young expressed sympathy with
prepayment of veterans certifi-
Gates before their due date in
1945, but opposed the printing
and distribution Of money to pay
them. His telegram read:
''My answer is first Sympa-
thetic, as / have always been

and that an attempt to do SO

see, at the Senate Finance Com
mittee's hearing today on the
tax bill, angrily protested
against Chairman Shoots re.
fusal to permit him to question
witnesses on the oil tariff and
finally moved to strike the

Smoot headed off the anti
tariff assault by recalling Paul
H. Harwood. an oil importer, to
the stand for further questioning
Motion Not Pressed
Harwood represents the Pan
American Petroleum and Trans
port Company, a subsidiary of
Standard Oil Company Of New
Jersey.
He opposed the oil tariff on the
ground it would produce no reve-
nue. and would be unfair to
American capital invested in for
eign oil lands.
Later Hull, who did not press
his motion, said it when the COM
mittee hearings have been COM
pleted.
Opponents Of the oil tariff we're
scheduled today to complete their
case.
Commission Challenged
Harwood placed mass Of sta
tistics in the record challenging
the Tariff Commissions finding
of a difference of $l.03 a barrel
in cost of producing crude Oil
here and in Venezuela.
This finding has been the basis
of the oil States demand for an
import tax or tariff. Harwood
said the real differential was 46
cents a barrel.
Republican sponsors of the sales
tax, led by Senator Reed OF
Pennsylvania, declared 1t would
be impossible to get a budget
balancing revenue bill through
this session of Congress without
a sales tax in 1t.
Democratic opponents of the
sales tax were just as emphatic
in declaring it would be i'm
possible to get the bill through
with a sales tax in it.
The probability OF both sides
compromising on a limited
excise tax loomed.
The House revenue bill already
includes excise taxes on lubrl-
eating oils, imported gasoline and
oil, toilet preparations, luxuries,
candy, chewing gum and soft
drinks.
Senate Democrats favor expan-
sion of the excise tax to raise
whatever additional revenue is
necessary to balance the budget
in preference to a general sales
tax.
On the other hand. sponsors
of the sales tax claim the excise
tax is unfair, as it places the
burden on particular industries
rather than spreading it gen
orally.

Lindbergh's legal adviser, kept up
a lonely vigil in the home Of
DR.. John F. Condor, in New
York city, far into the night.
Hoped For Message
1t was believed he expected
some message by telephone or
agent from the kidnapers, with
whom either he or Condor, the
signer of the famous "Jafsie'
advertisements which led to pay
ment of the $4,000 hoax ran,
som, had re,established contact,
according to reports.
Breckenridge yesterday left the
home of the aged lecturer at
.Fordham University several times
in the course of the afternoon
and evening. On a trip started
just before midnight; he was
accompanied by an unidentified
woman.
Condor himself was absent
almost all the time Breckenridge
was at his home. He and his
bodyguard, Al Reich, eX-pugiliSt,
went out the last time about
midnight and did not return
until early today.
Woman Visits Lindy
Great mystery was also thrown
about the visit to the Lindbergh
home shortly before the flare
lit up the countryside of Miss
Greta Grey, Of Minneapolis.

bergh home, where she spent
about As minutes, she told news

men. Miss Grey was driven to
Trenton.
See Break" Near
The belief persists that "break"
in the case Is near. Bolstering
this feeling were reports from
Norfolk. Va, where the three
Intermediates of Lindbergh gave
indication their phase of the
negotiations with the abductors
had reached a final stage.
One theory advanced today was
that Condor did not pay the
money, as publicly stated, to a
man at New York city cemetery
while Lindbergh waited near by,
but that actually he turned over
the ransom money to the kidnap-
ers on a boat in Vineyard Sound,
off Massachusetts,.
This report indicated the
baby was not restored to Lind
bergh because the approach of
Coast Buard cutter caused the alb
ductors to flee, and that they
have not yet had a chance to re-
turn the infant with safety to
themselves.
Mrs. Isabelle Ladame, nurse,
was to arrive in Hopewell today
for. questioning. She was ex,
amined by police at York, Pa,
after she sent a telegram to
Lindbergh.
Nurse to Be Quizzed
She asserted she overheard
conversation on a boat between
Norfolk and Baltimore which re-
lated to the kidnapping.
Police were impressed by her
story and arranged to have her
come to Hopewell.

ALFRED E. SMITH
 FORCED TO GIVE
 UP ALBANY TRIP
Was to Have Met Gov Roosevelt But Found He Must Attend Dinner in New York to Dr Butler

New York. Jan 27-(UP)-For- mer Governor Alfred s. Smith has revealed that he will not visit AL bany about February 12 for an announced conference with Cover nor Franklin D. Roosevelt. A for nal announcement was issued from Smiths office here following in- quiries, but an earlier verbal ex- planatfon from the same source contained nothing of rebuff to Gov ernor Roosevelt which politicians saw in the brief written statement.
 It was explained that until a few days ago, as Albany dispatches said, Smith had intended to pass Lincoln's birthday week end wis., iting his daughter, Mrs John A. Warner and her family in Albany and that it was assumed that Smith. as usual, would call upon Governor Roosevelt.
 A few days ago, however, it was said, Smith discovered that din- ner in honor of Dr Nicholas Mur- ray Butler, which he wished to at- tend, would curtail the Albany visit. Mrs Warner will visit her father here, as a result. A meeting between the 1928 standard bearer and the leading candidate for the 1892 nomination has been desired by Roosevelt's friends for some time to show that the political ri- valry between the two has not re. suited in personal estrangement.
