Roosevelt Is Ready

81 mica Press
POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y, Nov. 81.
Franklin D. Roosevelt, upon whose
shoulders has been placed the bur-
den of disposing of the interna-
tional war debts problem, leaves his
home today for New York on his
way to Washington, where he will
confer with President Hoover.
The President-el sets out for
Washington without revealing either
the extent of his intended partici-
patton in present negotiations, or
any Of his views on situation
which will. for four years at least,
perplex his own administration
He goes, however, armed with a
mass of information gathered by
various economists, and tonight, at
his home in New York City, he will
complete his study of the situation,
closeted with Professor Raymond
Moley of Columbia, his economic
adviser.
May Act as Observer
Friends are of the opinion he will
adhere strictly to the last para
graph of his acceptance message to
the Hoover invitation, that the debts
problem presents responsibility be-
longing to the Republican admin
iStration until March 4.
The Governors friends have re-
iterated frequently that Mr.. Roose-
welt possesses no federal authority
and, consequently, look for him to
act as an observer only, obtaining a
comprehensive outline of a situation
that may confront him as Presi-
dent.
Will Attend Dinner
Mr.. Roosevelt will leave Hyde
Park this afternoon at $3.50, and
motor to his New York home. He
will entrain the following day at
10:45 a. m. for Washington. Arriv-
ing at the capital at $3.50 D. m.
In Washington, he will make his
headquarters in the Msyf1ower no.
tel, greet congressional leaders, and
attend dinner in his honor to be
given by the National Press Club.
The Governor plans to leave
Washington for Warm Springs, Ga,
Wednesday at about 2 p. m.

TN answer to the comment brought
n forth by Lodge Member" in your
Nov. II edition, let me reply that
from the tone Of the party l think
he has the interest of his beautiful
buildings and their affected valu-
alton more in mind than the actual
social significance Of the so-called
street walkers"
Not that l am saying this in de-
tense of prostitution, as who am L
to pass judgment on a practice that
has come down through the ages?
1t is simple matter to say that
this disgrace should be eradicated,
but what is to be done about it?
Should the police drive the street
walkers" out of the city to other
metropolises or would our critic be
one to subscribe to fund for their
subsistence if the business be sup
pressed, as even prostitutes must
have food and shelter.
In the defense of the fair city OF
indianapolis, let me say that as a
travelling salesman I have been in
most Of the union station" towns
between New York and Frisco and
find Indianapolis a comparative
sanctuary in respect to morality.
There are innumerable cities
where street walkers" are found
parading even on the main thor
oughfares. l might cite Washing
ton, d. c., as an example.
TRAVELLING MAN FROM NEW

Editor Times
T WOULD like TO express an idea
l. in The Times which has i'm
pressed me for quite while con-
corning unemployment. I have
visited county institutions in diff
ferent states where they support
the needy. They are principally
supported by agriculture.
Some of them have as small
amount of acreage as $50 acres, with
a dairy of twenty cows, twenty
brood sows, sheep and all kind OF
other livestock profitable to raise,
poultry, ETC. Besides, an adept
supervision by those who show that
they are worthy of their place.
Now, regardless of those who as
sert that overproduction is the
cause of unemployment, do you not
think that Marion county and the
Community Fund, raising millions
of dollars, could invest it in land
and improve it with buildings and
conduct it after the style OF Pur-
due university, and put every idle
man at work raising products from
land now growing weeds, not paying
taxes. and still have wealth instead
of idleness, poverty and graft and
waste? TIMES READER

A FEW words for Mr.. Dry Voter
N of Marion. When you were a
child and passed a licensed saloon
on the corner, you didn't hear any
thing compared to what you now
would if you slip through a couple
of alleys and vacant storerooms into
a speak"
You can go into at least two
houses in every block and buy booze.
They are paying no license.
When the saloons were here, our
children did not have their TASKS,
as nowadays. They were not al
lowed in saloons and now they can
empty jug" in any bootleggers.
The eighteenth amendment is an
idiotic law that never was enforced
or never will be. So bring back the
saloons and safety for all and more
money for our Uncle Sam, and work
for the unemployed.

TINE discussion in your con-
i tributors column concerning
married working women leads a
mere man to add his views.
People protesting against married
women's earning remind one of the
kind unable to see, anything beyond
its own little piece of ground. What
difference would it make in the
general situation if few hundred
thousand women should all be dis
charged tomorrow? Have not many
large corporations done that very
thing, and has it helped any in re-
neving the unemployment situation?
If these persons would protect
conditions that caused the present
depression, they would do more to-
ward relieving the little fellow than
by robbing some woman of her job.

LEGION MASSES
FORCES AGAINST

Not One Cent Off Allow
ances to Disabled Vet
eranS' Is Battle Cry.
By WALKER STONE,
Times STAFF Writev

WASHINGTON. Oct H. -- Not
one cent of allowances to disabled
veterans" is the battle cry which
Lieutenant Colonel John Thomas
TAYLOR, head OF the American Le-
gion lobby, has sounded to rally
legionnaires against the drive TO
pare the federal budget by Teduc-
ing veterans benefits.
Taylor is preparing arguments TO
present TO the joint committees OF
congress on veterans relief econo-
mics. which will open hearings after
the November elections.
Meanwhile, he has sent to legion
officers throughout the country
special bulletin" bristling with
charges that large income tax pay
ers inspired the economy drive. and
accusing the economy advocates Of
misrepresentation concerning vet
Grams benefits.
The purpose OF the bulletin Is TO
provide Legionnaires with ammuni-
ton TO combat the attempt Of the'
national economy league to mobil-
ize sentiment for pairing veterans
relief.
The LegiOnnaires are expected to
use this ammunition particularly
In those communities where Admiral
Richard f. Byrd goes to organize
local committees for the Economy
League
Attacks on veterans relief, says
the bulletin, are inspired by the
same selfish class which knows the
patriotism of dollars-and measures
all things by that yardstick
Opponents would have the sv-
erage citizen believe that the huge
taxes weighing him down primarily
are due to federal payments to vet
Grams.
The statement that World war
veterans costs will reach $2l,-
500000,000 by 1945, is designed to
make the average citizen feel that
his present unhappy tax situation
has an even darker future-due to
World war veterans payments.

THE DIAMOND
 BOTTLINC PLANT. Much Interest in Case Awaiting Trial in
 New Haven LONG LEGAL BATTLE

In the matter of the suit brought by Truslow & Fulle, Inc of New York against Diamond Bottling corporation, 8 local concern, in which the plaintiff brought suit for about $1,200.00 worth of crowns for ginger ale bottles, and upon a trial a year or two ago the de- fendant received judgment for 100000 for, damages and which judgment was sent back by the su- preme court for @ new trial, upon which a motion for disclosure was heard before Judge Booth in New Haven last week, a decision was handed down by him on Tuesday in the New Haven superior court. The motion was argued by Attor- ney Hackett of Cummings & Lock- wood of Stamford for Truslow & Fulle, Inc, and by Attorney Will liam F. Thoms of Carmody & Thoms of Waterbury for the Dia- mond Bottling company. The mo- ton asked that the defendant dis close great many facts concern ing the administration of its busi- ness during the last fifteen or twenty years, including all the va- rious income taxes that it had filed and the variations in the formula which it had made since, it's or- ganization in the manufacture of it's giper ale, together with a great many other pieces of infor-
 nation which the defendant
 claimed 1t should not be asked to
 disclose in advance of the trial. The argument was upon the meaning
 of the new statute of 1881 which calls for a disclosure on the part
The Waterbury Democrat., 1932-03-30

of any party to litigation of vari- ous facts which 1t might later wish to produce in evidence, and the scope of the new statute has never been entirely determined. The de- fendant claimd that 1t should not be asked to set up in the record all the evidence that 1t is intended to produce and a great many facts which might have nothing to do with the lawsuit, and this claim the court has sustained in it's de- cision rendered in New Haven the other day. Judge Booth held that the person who asked for the dis closure must clearly establish that the facts he asked for were mate- rial to his cause of action or de- fense and that in this case the facts asked for called for general infor- nation which might or might not support the plaintiffs claim and that, therefore, the court could not see that the plaintiff had compiled with the rule. Judge Booth fur ther said that the burden of estab- fishing this basis rested upon the party moving for disclosure and that having failed to sustain this burden the motion of Truslow & Fulle, Inc, should be denied.
 The case will probably be as- signed for trial in two or three weeks in New Haven and will probably take a week or two to try, as it took that length of time before and it is expected to involve a great deal of expert testimony as to the nature of the ginger ale crowns furnished by the plaintiff and whether they came up to the warranty which the Diamond Bot ting company claims plaintiff made when the crowns were sold to the local concern by the plain tiff who manufactured them.

PENSION LAW IN MASS. WORKING
 SUCCESSFULLY
Supt Bardwell of Old Age Assistance Discusses the Results of Law En- acted in l931

New York, March 30.-UP)- "Our law provides for all who are deserving and the great majority are happy and grateful for the tax payers bounty" Francis Bardwell, superintendent of old age assist ance in Massachusetts, declared to- day in an address before the fifth annual national conference on old age security.
 Bardwell discussed the new Mas sachusetts pension law, inaugu- rated July 1, 1881. He pointed to the fact that it was put into effect at time of widespread and acute depression"
 "It is probable" he said, "that at least 35 per cent of our cases have been taken on to allow support to would be cheerfu1ly cared for by relatives"
 The weekly average pension Is $5.94 or more than two dollars be- low the estimate of $S, Bardwell declared. "At the present time we are caring for 13,400 aged and 1t seems as if we have nearly reached the peak"
 0uTlLS lIlc llTSI BLK 1lOhLuo VI the operation of the law, the superintendent said, 19.S27 applica- tions were received. of which Ill., 07e were approved. Eighty-two withdrew their requests and S2 died before action was taken. The expenditure throughout the state was $904,93S.53.
 Bardwell said the Massachusetts law differed from other similar statutes in that it specifics only the sheer fundamental of pension grants, allowing liberal interpreta- ton of the provisions by the ad- ministrators.
