the Washington Cathedral and
the chapel of st. Adams of the
National Cathedral School tor

of the Cathedral. offered the fol
lowing intercession from the Book
of Common Prayer:
"Oh, Merciful God and Heav.
enIy Father, who hath taught us
in Thy Holy Word that Thou
dost not willingly afflict or
grieve the children of men, look
with pity, we beSeech Thee, upon
the sorrow of Thy servants for
whom our prayer is offered. Re-
member them, oh Lord, in Thy
mercy; imbue their souls with
patience; lift up Thy cOunte-
nance and give them peace.
Amen"

lnature IN her most brutal
moods
And that is the kidnapping of a
little child from those who love
it.
Intermittently that crime breaks
in a nightmare upon us. Lately
it has become more common.
Become so common that women
wake in dread, sleep in terror
Yet it goes on. For there are
fiends in human form who will
risk anything for money.
Who will stop those fiendS?
One law will not stop them.
Nor a thousand laws. There is
only one thing that will stop
them
The organized fury of men and
women.
Not a little passing SpaSm Of
pity and shuddering fear
But fury that shall not stop
that shall spread into every
home, into every heart in Amer

That shall make it impossible

SPEEDY ACTION
CONSIDERED
MENACE
Measures Go Over to Tuesday
Lest Negotiations Fail
for Baby's Recovery

Fears that hasty congress
sional legislation to make kid
naping a capital crime might
inspire the kidnapers of the
Lindbergh baby to harm the
child prompted the House Ju-
dietary Committee today to
defer any action on the kid
haping bills it has been con-
sidering.
After a lengthy session, the
committee decided to defer fur
ther consideration of the Coch-
ran bill and others until Tuesday.
Would Aid Recovery
Members felt that nothing
should be done by the committee
10 interfere with the safe re-
novery of the baby. 1t was
thought by some that there was
D, real hope of getting the child
back through negotiation and
That action should be delayed
That might frighten the kidnapers.
The Cochran bill inflictS the
death penalty to kidnapers or con-
epirators involved in the crime
when a State line is crossed.
Result of Lindbergh Case
In the Senate a similar BILL
sponsored by Senator Patterson
kR) of Missouri, is pending be-
fore the Senate Judiciary Com
mittee.
The Senate committee also has
before it another bill introduced
yesterday by Senator Steiwer
i(R0 Of Oregon, making the
penalty from five years to life
imprisonment.
The Steiwer bill was intro
duced as a direct result Of the
kidnapping of the Lindbergh baby.
But the Cochran and Patterson
bills have been pending sometime
and were inspired by a series of
kidnapings in st. Louis.
Sentiment in the House was
divided as to the death penalty
and even over the question of
whether the Federal Government
should enter the crime detection
field left to the States.
A demand by Representative
Blanton CD of Texas, for the
death penalty was applauded in
the House.
Death Penalty Favored
The House Judiciary Committee
considered the Cochran bill late
yesterday after its chairman, Rep
resentative Summers CD of
Texas, had denounced the crime
against the LindberghS.
The probability is that the bill
will be reported favorGbly and
will contain the death penalty.
Hearings on the Cochran bill
developed the fact that Attorney
General Mitchell withheld his
approval of the measure solely be,
cause Of pinched finances.
Chairman Mead CD of New
York. of the House Postoffice
Committee. declared he would
seek a special rule for considera.
ton of his bill inflicting heavy
penalties for sending through the
mails threatening letters or those
demanding ransom for kidnapped
persons.

THREE STEPS
SUGGESTED TO
AID BUSINESS
Veterans, War Debts and
Cotton Surplus Problem
Solutions Offered.
BY RUTH FINNEY
Times staff Writer

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 14.-Three
steps, which the government may
take at once to revive business. were
suggested to the new administration
at the first session of the conference
Of business men and economists
called here by the American Acade-
my of Political and Social Science.
They were:
Reduction of government pay
ments to war veterans.
Immediate settlement of the wal
debts.
Donation to the Red Cross Of the
cotton sterilization corporations
400 000-bale cotton surplus.
The suggestions were made by
Sumner H. Slichter, professor Of
business economics at Harvard uni
versity.
Discussing the effect of the fed
eral deficit upon the condition Of
business, Snchter concluded that the
problem is more a psychological than
a mathematical one.
Regarding cotton, Slichter pointed

ST. LAWRENCE PACT
HEARINGS ARE BEGUN

Action in Short Session.

Action in Short Session.
BIZ Scripps- Ho,odrd Men spdper Alliance
WASHINGTON, Nov. 14-Hear-
ings on the St. Lawrence treaty
opened today before the Borah sub
committee with very few senator's
believing in the possibility of def
mite action in the coming short
session of congress.
1t is a Hoover treaty, the nego-
tiation of which hurriedly was
completed last July-at the start
of the presidential campaign.
President-elect Franklin D.
Roosevelt, whose influence will be
the determining factor, has not an
nounced whether he favors ratifica-
ton.
Twice in the course of the cam
paign, Roosevelt said vaguely that
he approved waterway and power
development of the st. Lawrence.
But in neither instance did he in
dorse the pending treaty.
Senator Robert F. Wagner Dem.,
N. W, who is a member of Borah'S
subcommittee, and who is re-
garded as Roosevelt's spokesman,
insists that he has not discussed
the treaty with the President elect.
Wagner is one Of the large group
of senators who do not believe
there will be any action in the COM
ing session.

show how far it has progressed.
One picture black Persian with
four white feet and markings on
his head and chest, bred by Mrs.
Colburn Of Chicago. She told me,
in amused Renaissance, that she
had been very proud of him and
had named him White Sox"
because of his markings and for
the Chicago White Sox baseball
team. This name was considered
too plebeian for registration, so
he was rechristened Prince Col
burn"
Now he would not be considered
worthy of mention at show, for
white markings are taboo. They
have been bred out of the finest
strains, as have white chins on
tabbieS. BY the way. contrary to
general opinion, tabby is not a
female. 1t is striped cat, called
Tiger" in short hairs.
TINE handsomest cat I ever
Il have seen was King Winter.
a silver shown at the Beresford
cat show in Chicago at the Hotel
Lexington. A beautiful painting
of King Winter is shown in Carl
Van Cechten'S "A Tiger in the
House" a most amusing and en-
PERTAINING book about cats. Mr..
Van Vechten's description of his
own cat as a tortoise shell and
white smoke would shock a
breeder.
Such a combination would be
considered calamity and kept a
dark secret, but the evident pride
he displayed proves that it is not
perfection, but individuality, that
makes us love our pets. Though
my blue cat, pictured, has great
deal of both, if you please.
Cat breeding is interesting be-
cause a cat always is the same
type, so experimentation must be
with colors. Also, there are many
queer and unexplained oddities in
the fancy. The blue-eyed whites
often are deaf. The tortoise-shell
almost Invariably is a female.
For while it was claimed that
there never had. been male tor
toise; now the statement is not
so emphatic. However, never
have heard of one.
The red Tables almost are al
ways male, and the silver queens
have the best eye color. Such
idioSyncrasies lend interest to the
hobby, in addition to the inter-
est there is the amusement that
can be derived from a pet cat.
There is nothing more fun than
a mother cat in the family, es-
pecially if she is an aristocratic
Persian. Then her kittens are
handsome bits of royalty that de-
light the eye and fill the pocket
book, for a handsome cat is of as
much decorative value to the
home as picture or a lovely
vase.

DEATH IS SEEN
SURE IF GANDHI
REVIEWS FAST
Great Sour Far Too Weak
to Survive; Determined
to Take Step.
BY THEODORE SALIvATI
United Press Staff Correspondent

fCOpyrlght. 1881. DIV Jnlteo FIeeot
pOONA, India, Nov. 14.-Mahat-
ma Gandhi probably can not survive
another fast unto death" he is
planning to start. unless untouch-
ables are permitted to enter the
temple of Teuruvayur, this CORE
spondent was assured after an in
terview with the great soul"
Gandhi is in Yerovda prison be-
cause of his opposition to British
rule in India. His personal appear
ance indicates beyond doubt that
his health is precarious.
Although he remains outwardly
cheerful, he has undergone much
suffering since his recent fast.
Body Like Skeleton
He no longer sits in characteristic
erect position. His face has become
wrinkled. His body is little more
than a skeleton.
He is eating regularly, but he has
not succeeded in rebuilding his
physical self since his fast.
AS he talked, his muscles quiv-
cred.
Gandhi said he is directing all
his afternoons to study and discus
sion of the "untouchables' prob
lem.
He reserves his mornings for
spinning, reading and writing.
His food includes goats milk,
dates, bread, honey, tomatoes,
oranges and lines.
The Answer Is No
81 expect my friend and associ-
ate, Kallappan, to give the Teur-
uvayur temple trustees sufficient
notice of my Intentions" Gandhi
said But no matter what hap
pens, have made up my mind TO
begin another fast.
THE legal difficulties mentioned
by the trustees opposing the open
ing of the temple to India's de-
pressed millions are insufficient.
Morality and public opinion de-
mand an amendment to the British
law which attempts to perpetuate
untouchability, and which blocks
all attempts to reform the system.
IF steps are taken to amend ex-
listing legislation, am prepared to
postpone my fast for a reasonable
length of time. Otherwise, my
answer is no."
