COURT TEST is PLANNED.
Board q Trade Confident Of Vindica
tiOn of Policy.

CHICAGO, July % (P.-Not In the
least apprehensive. the legal machinery
Of the Chicago Board of Trade moved
tonight to appeal to the courts the mat
ter of its suspension as a contract mar
ket for refusing clearing house rights to
the Farmers National Grain Corpora
ton.
Peter B. Carey, president Of the board
was emphatic in statement there
would be no recession from the stand
denying clearing house privileges to the
corporation. Three of President Hoo
ver's cabinet officers ordered the board
suspended for so days because it ''un-
justly denied such privileges to the
corporation.
Anticipating the suspension. Carey
indicated all legal details were perfected
to make an appeal to the United States
Circuit Court of Appeals here within the
Is days allotted the board before the
suspension becomes effective.
Abrupt Action Opposed.
Suspension Of business of the Board
of Trade if abruptly put into force. off,
GERS said. would tend to bring about a
condition of chaos-not only in Chi
cago marts, but in grain centers large
and small.
Banks especially would be affected
they declared. since huge loans have
been made with grain as collateral. Such
loans rarely are obtained unless the
grain has been protected by hedging
sales. The chief facilities for hedging
have been furnished by the Chicago ex-
change.
George s. Milnor. a vice president of
the Farmers National said officers OF
the organization naturally were gratifled
by the suspension order
Ban Declared Hardship.
THE Farmers National has cOntended
throughout" he said. that refusal of
the clearing association Of the Board Ct
Trade to admit it to membership priv
leges has been a hardship. Clearing
house privileges. If granted to the Farm
ers' National, will give 1t opportunity to
compete on an even basis with other
co-operativeS
Smouldering since the days Of the
"pegsing' of wheat prices. more than
year ago. the i'll feeling between the
board and the Farmers National flarcd
into warfare last May
The Board of Trade has a rule pro-
hibiting corporations from membership
in its clearing house association To
save huge commissions on grain trade,
the Farmers National purchased the
Updike Grain Co., possessing member
ship.
In ensuing investigations, the Updike
company was cited for violations of the
Board of Trade rules and stripped of
trading privileges. forcing the Farmers
National again to clear trade through
other memberships.
See Crop Moving Affected.
Coming at this time, suspension Of
the board, officials said. would be en-
barrassing to business on account of
the harvest movement of wheat Aside
from banks and agricultural interests
transportation lines would be subjected
to hardship they said. and contracts
involving millions of bushels of grain
would be jeopardized.
Latest official figures show in wheat
alone for future delivery to the Chicago
Board of Trade total of 1865 900
bushels and 25,627 900 bushels of corn.
But Carey and other board officers do
not expect the suspension to be effected

war debts had no relation to the sub

The British position was made clear

expand upon that view during a time
when We are dealing with essentially
British, rather than world problems.
In world dominated by a mood Of

1t is hard TO see that this new idea

B0RAH REFUSES
APOLOGY TOCRUMP
Charges of Politics in Relief
Flour Distribution Supple
mented, He Says.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Senator Borah of Idaho, under fiery
demands for apology from Representa-
tive E. H. Crump of Memphis for hav-
ing made public charges that the
Tennessean's political machine" was
distributing Red Cross -four in exchange
for votes, maintained yesterday there
was justification for the accusations.
His stand was taken in the face OF a
telegraphed report to the Red Cross
that there was no foundation in the
charge and that the only breakdown in
distribution of the relief -four was un-
connected with politics. The Red Cross
also said Crumps organization had
nothing to do with this relief work.
Other Facts Considered.
Said Borah: If I felt that the
charges made in the letters which I
gave out were not well grounded
should apologize. But from the facts
presented before, and statements since
1 made the letters public, l feel there
was Justification for the charges which
were made. Il am satisfied some one
was doing some Of those hungry people
an injustice"
Crump. one time Mayor Of Memphis
and widely regarded in Tennessee as
boss" of that city. twice telegraphed
Borah for an apology.
In the second wire he told the
Senator:
Your silence in not correcting a
dastardly falsehood forces one to the
inevitabl conclusion that you are big
and mighty enough to commit low
and despicable injustice and get away
with it.
IF you had an ounce Of real, manly
courage in your makeup, you would at
least try to tell the truth and acknowl-
edge your error, and l say to you In
most positive way you will do 1t some
day.
You have done ME an irreparable
injury all over this country. and COM
mon decency on your part chould nave
made it unnecessary to call 1t TO your
attention more than once.
Letters Given Out.
The accusations, denied vigorously
from the first, were contained in letters
from Memphis chapters of the Loyal
Order of Americans. They said the re-
lief -four had been turned over by the
Red Cross to the Crump organization
and unemployed could not obtain it un-
less they pledged themselves to vote for
Crump candidates An investigation was
asked Borah gave out the letters.

WALKER MAY TRY
/ FOR GOVERNORSH|P
Threat to Run if 0usted by
Roosevelt Regarded
as Authentic.
BY the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, August 1.-The Times
says Mayor James J. Walker will seek
the Democratic nomination for Gov
ernor If he is removed from Office by
Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt.
The source of the information was
not given. but the Times said it was
''unimpeachable."
Seeks Tammany Support.
Rumors Of such a plan had been
current for some time, the paper said
and had been treated by Roosevelt lead
ers as a bluff or threat With the pos
sible intent of influencing Gov. Roose-
velts decision on the charges against
the mayor"
The paper said. however, that some
of the Roosevelt leaders have come to
believe that Walkers intention to seek
the govrnorship is genuine and that
he expects to have strong support from
Tammany and its allies.
Tammany so far has refrained from
Endorsing Lieut.. Gov. Herbert H. Leh-
man, Gov. Roosevelts choice as his
successor. The Times said Walker was
counting not only on the support Of
Tammany, but also of upstate support
ers of Alfred E. Smith in the recent
Democratic National Convention.
Successor Selected.
It was previously reported that the
mayor and his advisers had decided
that If he were ousted from the City
Hall he could not seek reinstatement
by the voters in November and tna1
Aldermanic President Joseph V. Mckee
would become mayor and serve until
January l, 1888.
