HOOVER PROPOSALS
PROMPT CRITICISM
FROM ANNIVERSARIES
Speaker Garner Says Plan
Would Create Expense
Instead of Economy

Washington. Feb. 18.-F-The
proposal by President Hoover for re-
organization of government bureaus
drew Democratic criticism Thursday
on the ground the chief executive
he made no specific recommended
tions.
II thought he was going to be
helpful and recommend some curtail-
ment," Speaker Garner said, but in
stead he asked for new offices that
will create expense instead of promot-
ing economy"
Representative. Rainey Of Illinois,
the Democratic leader, said: THE
president as usual made no specific
recommendations, except for addi-
tional offices and to give him more
power"
Meanwhile, the presidents special
message to congress Wednesday was
referred to before the house expendi-
lures committee holding hearings on
legislation to consolidate the war and
navy departments.
In response to q question, Rep
resentative Williamson (R., s: d.
said President Hoover had not
brought about some of the changes
he advocated because he has been
unable to get cooperation from one
member of his cabinet He did not
name the cabinet member.
A letter from General Douglas
Macarthur, army chief of staff. OPP
posing the consolidation. was read at
the hearing.

cent years." he said. seems to me to
be fraught with such potential pos
sibilities for disaster for the United
States as this one" He said under
certain conditions it might involve
the very life Of the nation"
Hoover was charged by Chairman
Byrns of the house appropriations
committee with being the most ex-
travagant chief executive the U. S.
has had in peace time.

Bond Selling Drive
Is Planned by Knox
Campaign Similar to Liberty
Bond Plan Arranged BY
Anti.Hoarder
WILL BE SHORT AND QUICK
Scheme Is Designed to Draw
Money From Teapots,
Safety Deposit Boxes

Washington, Feb. 18.-(R)-Plans
for government bond-selling cam
paign to decrease boarding pattern
ed after the first Liberty Loan drives
were announced Thursday by Col
onel Frank Knox, chairman of Presi-
dent Hoover's anti-hoarding commits
sion.
The securities to be issued by the
treasury. designed specifically to draw
money out OF teapots and safety de-
post boxes, Knox said. will be In low
denominations.
Details Of the issue, however, re-
main to be worked out at a conference
with Secretary Mills of the treasury
department.
II anticipate only one difficulty
Knox said. 1T Is In getting suffi-
cient quantity Of securities from the
treasury to satisfy the demand for
them"
Knox. publisher Of the Chicago
Daily News, conferred with the presi-
dent Immediately before making his
announcement.
I'm the last week or two" he be-
gan, II have been in touch with every
part Of the country in connection
with the movement to stop boarding.
From every quarter comes an in
sistent demand that this committee
provide the people whose money is
out of circulation safe and secure
substitute for money now cached In
teapots and safety deposit boxes.
THE demand can be met only by
an issue of securities that has the
whole power of the government be-
hind 1t. have said as much to the
president and Secretary Mills"
Knox reported that from the mem
bers OF his executive committee in
Chicago-one for each federal reserve
district-he had received reports that
1.-THE response to the anti-hoarding
movement had been more striking
and spontaneous than that to the
first liberty loan drive during the
World war"
He reiterated that the campaign to
return ,50O,000,000 to circulation
would be short and quick"

HUGE FINANCE BODY
WORKING STEADILY
Millions Upon Millions Have
Been Poured Into Busi-
ness Foundations

Washington, Feb. l8.-(R-Millions
upon millions Of dollars have been
poured into the foundations Of the
American business structure during
the last two weeks by the reconsruc-
ton finance corporation.
Working quietly, day and night, the
huge credit organization has devoted
its first attention to small banks.
These institutions. which might have
been forced to close their doors had
not credit been extended. have re-
sumed their normal functions, ac-
cording to reports reaching the cor
poration. The total already distribut-
ed is reliably estimated at more than
the 100000, 900 exclusive Of the $780,
000, 900 turned over to the department
Of agriculture.
Sizeable loans have gone to two
hard pressed railroads, the Wabash,
already in the hands of q receiver,
and the Missouri Pacific.
In the department Of agriculture
machinery has been perfected for
handling the $50,0o0,000 set aside by
the act for the especial use Of agri-
culture.

FAILS
TO ALLOW CHICAGO
CHANCE FOR RELIEF
Gloom Hangs Over City as Pub
lie and School Employees
Make Threats

Chicago, Feb. l8.-(R-A new and
deeper pail Of gloom hung Thursday
over the thousands of payless public
employees and threatened the schools
and municipal offices Of city and
county with closing.
Voices of despair where hope held
Wednesday were raised by civic and
leaders and retrenchments
were planned that may plunge many
workers into the ranks Of the jobless
and curtail the functions supported
by the public treasury.
The city had based its hopes of fl
nancial relief on legislative enact
ments permitting the funding of un-
paid back taxes and bond issue. But
the special session Of the Illinois gen.
eral assembly adjourned Wednesday
night until April 19-after the pri-
mary elections-without acting.
With the prospects that the treas
ury would remain empty until the as
sembly reconvenes April 10, preliminary
steps in what was said by officials to
be one OF the largest retrenchment
programs ever undertaken were made
Wednesday night as Mayor Cermak
ordered q survey Of all city depart
ments with q view of leaving only q
skeleton organization.
And while unpaid teachers protest.
ed anew they were desperate for want
and threatened a walkout, the board
Of education tentatively decided to
keep the schools open as long as pos
sible and then close them until the
1888 appropriations are available.
To trim expenses the mayor said he
would submit to the city council Fri
day his decision to dismiss 2,479 city
including members of the
police and fire departments.
Two other developments In the
fight to keep local governments ope-
rating were:
Immediate extension of the 1890
tax bills.
A conference with loop bankers and
members of the Chicago Clearing
House association over means of rails
ing money.

CHINESE AUTHORITIES
CONSIDER ULTMATUM
Copyright, 1882, by The Associated

Shanghai. Feb. ls.-(Fedeneral
Kenkichi Uyeda, commander Of the
japanese forces In this area, served
an ultimatum tonight on General
Tsai Ting Kai ordering the Chinese
to withdraw 121s miles from shaug-
hal by shutdown on Saturday.
This was the result OF the failure
OF a peace parley earlier in the day
during which the Jananese submitted
this identical demand and the Chi
nese representatives rejected 1t.
1t was thought the ultimatum was q
preliminary to the beginning Of the
long-awaited major offensive by ia
pan.
$4,000 Men Concentrated
In preparation for that drive the
japanese have concentrated an army
of at least $4,000 men in this vicinity.
The Chinese have twice that many
soldiers.
Airplanes have been brought up in
considerable numbers by both sides
and 1t was reported several days ago
the japanese have a quantity Of 500
pound aerial bombs.
The ultimatum was delivered while
guns were in action in the Chapel
sector In an artillery engagement
which began Immediately after the
peace parley broke down.
In very brief time the cannonad-
ing was resumed in Chapel
General Uyeda's ultimatum, in ad-
dition to demanding the Chinese
withdrawal. stipulated II the Chinese
evacuated the japanese would not adj
vance from the region now occupied
adjacent Hongkew. nor would they
fire upon, lombard or pursue the Chi
neSe.
Activities Must Cease
In addition, all anti-Japanese ac-
tivitieS must cease, Japanese lives and
property must be guaranteed and all
activities by Chinese "plainclothes
men" must be curbed.
To this list Of demands the general
appended a paragraph reserving "the
liberty to act" II the demands were
not accepted.

EMERGENCY BOOSTS
FOR CERTAIN RATES

lntrastate Freight Scale Alter.
/ ed in Accordance With !.
c. c. Order
COMMISSION RELUCTANT
Carload Rates on Products OF
Agriculture Are Excluded
From Permit

Emergency increases In certain in
trastate railroad freight rates, on the
same basis as the increases ordered
by the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion on interstate traffic were author
lied in an order announced Thursday
by the state railroad commission.
The increases will operate from
March 7. 1882, to March 81, 1888.
Commodities on which increases are
permitted include:
Ignite and briquettes, sand an d
gravel, lumber, oranges, grapefruit,
lemons, lines, cantalope melons,
cabbage. and certain other fruits and
vegetables, but not including potatoes.
seeds, other than flax, gasoline. kero-
sene, cement, lime and brick, and all
ess-than-carlot freight.
Emergency rates were permitted by
the I. G. G. as an outgroWth of the
railroads application for a general Is
per cent increase on all interstate
traffic rates. The railroads applied
to the state commission for similar
interstate rates.
The state commissions order spe-
cities that mo increase greater than
six cents per net ton OF 1000 pounds
shall be made In the carload rates on
Ignite briquettes."
I'm view Of the severe economic de-
preston and widespread drouth
which has affected the people OF
North Dakota to an extreme degree.
the order says, I'VE are exceedingly
reluctant to authorize or permit any
freight rate increases, even as an
emergency measure. ---,-4-'
"But In view of the character OF
these proceedings, the unQuestioned
seriousness of the financial emery
ency affecting the rail carriers. and
the findings OF the Interstate Com
merce Commission, we are compelled
to bow to the inevitable and to per-
nit these emergency increases to be
made. Bearing in mind that the rail-
roads originally proposed general Is
per cent increase In all freight rates
and charges, we are very fortunate IN
having the Interstate Commission ex-
clude the carload rates on our most
important products, products OF agrl-
culture, from any increases. with
few minor exceptions. and to permit
only small increases in the rates on
our next most important product, lg-
mite coal"

intermittent Firing Comes From
Rebel Stronghold, Bella

San Jose. Costa Rica. Feb. 49,
R-The civilian population Of the
capital fled their homes Thursday
under the menace of intermittent fir
ing from the rebel stronghold, Bella
vista barracks.
Practically all civilians had left the
city before IL q. m, the hour set by
the government for their departure in
for a bombardment OF
the rebel position.
San Jose presented the appearance
of an armed camp. The revolving
group Of Manuel Castro Quesada. de-
feated presidential candidate, was
firing its artillery from the barracks
whenever it got range on target.
Although a spirited clash was ex-
pected momentarily there was no In
dication Of when it would begin.
Charles G. Eberhardt, U. s. min
lister, Thursday denied reports the
legation had been abandoned here.
Casualties in Wednesdays engage
ment at the barracks and elsewhere
totaled eight dead and 20 wounded
All were rebels.
