Crater Seeks To
Obtain Volcano

LOS ANGELES, June 9. U.P) --
So Mr. Crater went looking for a
volcanoi
H. A. VanNorman, general man.
ager of the water and power de-
partment, said today he received
a letter from John Crater of Bishop
in which the latter wanted to pur-
chase an extinct volcano, nov
known as Red Hill.
Red Hill came into possession Of
Los Angeles in the purchase Of
water rights in Owens Valley where
it is located.
VanNorman turned down Crater
on the ground the volcano ash has
too much potential value as an in-
gredient in manufacturing building
materials.

this would not be insisted upon.
All we want is a vote, yes or
no." he said we don't care about
the details.
Missouri, at the suggestion of
Secretary of Agriculture Hyde had
proposed the calling of a special
constitutional convention restricted
to consideration of prohibition
White House advisors, however,
have vetoed this plan as too cum
bersome and of doubtful feasibility
in that the power to restrict such
a convention to one subject is ques-
tionable.
Discuss Two Issues
Party conferences with President
Hoover have been concerned largely
with two issues 1t is said. One is
whether the prohibition plank shall
provide for submission of a simple
repeal plan or whether it should
contain a substitute amendment.
The other question is whether the
plank should recommend that any
proposed amendment be submitted
to state conventions for ratifica-
ton or leave this detail to the judg-
ment of congress.
Brown said today that the form
of the prohibition plank has not
been finally determined.
The postmaster general said that
he and other party leaders had
discussed prohibition in Washington
in the last few days with several
members of congress who are MEM
bers of the resolutions committee
as those men were unable to come
here early on account Of the con-
gresSional situation.
Brown said that James r. Gar
field of Ohio, scheduled to be chairs
man of the resolutions committee
had advised him he would not come
to Chicago until Sunday.
Edwin C. DinWiddie, dry leader
from Washington, arrived today in
the vanguard of the prohibition
forces.
Another arrival was Mrs MabeI
Walker Willebrandt, former assist
ant attorney general in charge OF
prohibition enforcement and 9

proved by President Hoover. It is
being brought here by his chief
political advisor, Postmaster Cen
eral Walter F. Brown, and by
James R. Garfield, prospective
chairman of the convention plas-
form committee.
Except for the nrchihition fight
the convention would hardly have
single thrill. Chicago is going
through the motions Of putting Oh
a national convention but without
excitement. This conventions work
is largely predetermined. Many Of
the most colorful delegates, sena-
tors and congressman will remain
in Washington
Lavish spending of former days
is missing. The brokers and Wall
street figures, with their private
cars and expensive parties are net
in evidence. A sombre reminder O.
the times IS found in newspaper
headlines describing the fall Of
Samuel insult, the public utility
magnate who once financed elec-
tion to the United States senate
for a Republican friend only tG
have his candidate denied the seat.
Poverty hangs over the party
gathering with a depressing effect.
Republican delegates bring the
word that the country is ready for
a showdown on prohibition. Po-
litical leaders formerly dry are ad.
vocating a reversal of the party
| position. The most disconsolate
leader is Sen. Simeon d. Fess,
chairman of the Republican Ma
tional committee, for years the
darling Of the Anti-Saloon league,
: the man who undertook to keep
the party dry. He was not at the
; country club meeting in Washing
ton where the Republican senators
! discussed the resubmission plank
Every informed politician around
! convention headquarters here knows
the Republican convention will &c

( of them expect fight But it will
be largely a fight as to how ag-
( gressive the plank shall be. The
party's old line drys have lost

Daily Report Of
Stock Markets

NEW YORK, June 9. U.P)-The
stock market went through a series
Of wide swings today, marked by
periods of hasty short covering and
others of profit taking Near the
close liquidation increased, early
gains were wiped out and losses
substituted, and many leaders
forced into new low ground.
The opening found the majority
of issues lower. American Tele-
phone began at a record low and
Steel Common sank to a new low
since 1907 IN the first few minutes
Of trading. Then Auburn shot up
on heavy short covering, the issue
reaching ASS. where it was up 99s 3,
and the while list turned up. In
the selling in the last hour Tele-
phone made a new low at 80l2, off
15s net; Steel Common at "a, off
is and Steel Preferred at 635s, off
33s.
Wheat sank to new seasonal lows
while Cotton Futures broke to rec
ord lows. Bonds firmed up for a
time but selling again sent the list
down late IN the day despite rela-
tive strength in United States gov
ernment issues.
There was nothing in the news
to account for the sudden turn in
the market, and there was very lit
tie in the early events to warrant
runaway market on the upside.
The trading community was still
worried over the prospects of bonus
legislation and prolongation of the
session of congress. Early in the
day rumors were circulated con-
gress would clean its slate for ad-
journment next Monday.
Losses at the end Of the day
we're small but the declines from
/ the highs of the day were wide in
many instances. Allied Chemical
declined from 5Oi2 to Az; Ameri-
can Can 3734 to around 35; Amer
ican Telephone 842s to 8012; Amer
lean Tobacco B from 5012 to as;
Atchison 277s to 2512; Consolidated
Gas 357s to 1895 and Union Pa
] cific 372s to 346.
| Brooklyn Manhattan issues were
carried sharply higher on short
covering early in the day, the COM
mon reaching 14%t, up 3, and the
preferred 3812, up 6ls. A large
amount of these gains were re-
tanned.

Washington F Fdshions
By WILMA LAVILLE

Perhaps you saw a page In
recent fashion magazine de-
voted to botanical studies, to
the mushroom silhouette. 1t
showed drawing after drawing
of tall mushrooms and, stand
ing by them, women, whose
long, slim figures, topped by a
cape or jacket, looked just like
the mushroom. 1t isn't as
fantastic as it sounds. Paris,
you know, went in strongly for
capes and Short-sleeved jackets
at the recent openings, and we
are just beginning to get them
in numbers here.
The Top Flares
AS skirts and dresses are as
slim as possible all the way up
to the ribs, it is very easy for
us to initiate the slender stem
of a mushroom, and we can
choose between several types of
capeS and jackets for the wide
top. A tiny hat just finishes
off the silhouette and rounds
out the point nicely. Study the
silhouette of the costume
sketched and you will see how
true this is, without being
necessarily extreme. The skirt
and waist section Of the dress
are slim and graceful. Even
without the jacket, the dress is
slightly mushroom, as the shoul-
ders are extended by means of
cap sleeve effects. With the
jacket on, you get the effect
of a wide curved top.
Fits SuperbIy
This costume comes in two
color combinations, in brown
with the top of the dress in
beige, or in black with the top
in a dusty pink. The sash
starts under the brasSiere bod
ice, marking the superb fit of
dress, and may be tied or
twisted. in the new way, across
the front. It's impossible to
describe the Smartness of the
jacket, the little short sleeves
gathered into a perfect mush-
room curve. The whole cos
tune is of a new very rough
crepe, and because of its slender,
close fit, has a rather formal
look. Don't forget that it's the
newest of the new, and if you're
looking for something you'll be
proud to wear, something you
can really introduce, this is your
fashion.
