SESSION
HELD INEVITABLE
Roosevelt Discounts NeceS.
sity, but Some Party Lead
erS Disagree.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Despite President-elect Roosevelt's
word that he does not now see that a
special session of Congress will be
necessary, some Democratic leaders ex-
pressed the belief today that such a
meeting after March 4 is inevitable.
They are concerned over the short
ness of the session opening Monday and
the controversial issues involved in the
ambitious Democratic legislative pro-
gram, but, nevertheless, continued to
organize their drive to jam their pro-
posals through the lame duck" gather
ing.
Representative Johnson, Democrat. Of
Oklahoma, returned to the Capital yes
terday and quoted Mr.. Roosevelt as
having said he could not now conceive
circumstances under which it would be
necessary" to summon a special session
Johnson, added, however that the Gov
erncr did not say nothing could hap
pen to force one. johnson talked with
the President-elect at Warm Springs
last Saturday
Speaker Garner. hopeful that beer.
farm relief and budget balancing
measures can be passed before Spring,
is not. however. making optimistic pre-
dictions. Chairman Steagan of the
House Banking Committee. who also
talked with Roosevelt, said he felt
special session was almost certain.
Others also joined in these sentiments.
While the leaders were trying to esti-
mate President Hoover's attitude toward
beer and farm bills which might con-
tain the equalization fee and export
debenture, bipartisan plans to cut Fed
eral appropriations to the bone went
forward ON Capitol Hill.
Waiting to see what reductions Mr.
Hoover would recommend in his budget
measure next week. leaders noted that
the Federal deficit had mounted to
$3.50, 600 900 for the first five months of
the current fiscal year.

HOOVER MESSAGE
TO SEEK REFORMS
Executive Reorganization to
Gain Economy to Be Asked
by President.

REORGANIZATION of the executive
branch Of the Federal Government. with
. view to effecting greater efficiency
and the saving of millions Of dollars to
the Government. 1t Is understood from
an authoritative source, will be discussed
at some length by President Hoover in
his annual message to Congress, which
will be read to that body next Tuesday,
and the writing OF which he expects to
conclude probably tomorrow afternoon.
Those who have talked to the Presi-
dent recently are Of the impression that
he. considers the need for more effective
organization so obvious and essential as
matter of better business and econ
omy. that he will advice Congress not
only Of his definite plans. but Of his
intention to exercise the authority he
now has to bring about the desired
transfers. consultations and redistribu-
tion Of various governmental functions.
ssso,ooo, 600 Saving.
The impression is that President
Hoover expects his plan for reorgani-
zation materially to pave the way to
accomplish his aim of bringing about
$3.50, 900, 900 net saving in the opera
ton of the Government for the next
fiscal year Just how many millions
the President expects to save by his re-
organization plan is not known, but it
Is thought that he win be able to give
some estimate at his discussion of the
subject in the annual message.
The subject has been discussed at
length at the various cabinet sessions
for the past few weeks as well as with
the budget director and with Repub-
lican congressional leaders with whom
the President has conferred since he
began drafting his annual message
about a week ago.
In anticipation of the completion of
his message tomorrow President Hoover
today conferred at length with j.
Clawson Roop, director of the budget
It Is understood that the latter has
been engaged in working out definite
figures In the nature of savings to be
made possible by the Presidents plan.
Has Authority Now.
The President has authority to effect
changes by executive order. This order,
however, must lie before the Congress
for 60 days while Congress is In session
before becoming effective.
The Presidents plan proposes the
adjustment Of q number Of the indie
pendent executive establishments, boards
and commissions, the most notable OF
which is the United States Shipping
Board and to effect as much as possible
single-headed responsibility in executive
activities and to reduce as much as
possible the powers and functions Of the
various advisory, regulatory, apd semi
judicial bodies.
His aim, according to his expressed
views, are to consolidate and group the
various executive and administrative
activities according to their major pur-
poses, thus eliminating much duplica-
ton Of effort and waste.
To perfect his plan for consolidation
and grouping under single-headed re-
sponsibility the President has in mind
the creation of several new govern
mental posts which will be Of vitality
important character.

Jury IS GIVEN CASE
AGAINST 4 EAGLES
ottery Trial at Newark Con-
CIuded and Verdict Is
Likely Soon.
he Associated Press.

The Associated Press.
NEW YORK, December 3.-Federal
ottery charges against Conrad H.
Mann, Frank E. Herring, Bernard C.
MCGUIRE and Raymond Walsh were
given to jury at 1890 am. today.
Judge Francis Coleman instructed the
Jurors that their principal task was ito
determine whether or not at the time
the defendants caused tickets to be sent
across a State line they had intention
to make awards by lot or chance"
Mann, a Kansas City business leader,
is head of the bazaar department of the
Fraternal Order Of Eagles AS such he
contracted with MCGUIRE to promote a
known as the Eagles charity frolic and
dance" So
Agreement on Profits.
The evidence showed that they agreed
TO divide the profits of the enterprise
equally, each receiving, ultimately.
$3.50 900. Herring received 331s per cent
of Mann's share.
Under the contract MCGUIRE promoted
books of tickets for local dances.
The Governments evidence showed
that the tickets were printed in Scran-
ton, Pa, and distributed nationally by
express from Philadelphia. Suisse
quently drawing was held ON Lake
Erie in August, 1881.
Attorneys representing Mann and
Herring contended that when Mann con-
tracted with Mcguire the latter told
him that he had legal way to dis
tribute prizes, and that he did not dis
close the legal way" McGuire's de-
tense was that the distribution of
awards was left entirely to a commit
tee of Eagles, which was not named at
the time Of the negotiations for the en-
terprise.
Court Doors Locked.
The doors of the court room were
locked during the courts charge
There is no moral turpitude in lot
terieS, Judge Coleman said, and the
law doesn't condemn them on moral
grounds. There is, though, a serious
economic evil in lotteries"
He then explained why the Federal
Government forbade the shipment of
lottery tickets as protection to indi-
vidual States.
Juror Solos Rath raised his hand at
the end Of the courts charge and said:
If one Of the defendants merely par
ticipated in the profits, I don't quite
see how"
sit down." broke in the court. "IIl
explain"
Then he told the jury that mere par
ticipaticn in the profits wouldn't be
enough to form the basis of a finding
that he intended a lottery.
