PUBLIC WILL LEARN
Of LOANS MONDAY
South TrimbIe Rules That Re-
construction Report May
Be Published.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
On Monday. unless something pre-
vents. the public will find out who bor-
rowed how much from the Reconstruc-
tion Finance Corporation in the 10
days after July 81, and what interest
they are paying.
The clerk of the House, South Trim
BILE. ruled yesterday that these facts
should be made public. That had been
opposed by the administration but sup
ported by House Democratic leaders,
although some Senators Of both par
ties said it was not necessary under the
law
There was some talk today Of posi-
BILE court action. Whether that would
eventuate remained to be seen. When
Trimble told newspaper men he was
ready to rule he said:
Gentlemen, your agony is about
over. But mine has just begun"
The monthly report to Congress from
the corporation enumerates in detail
advances to banks, railroads, financial
and other institutions.
Trimble's Interpretation.
1t complies with the provision in the
relief law that the corporation shall
submit to the secretary of the Senate
ana tIlt ClcIk VI LIE f1OuSc, NIlcfl SOii-
gress is not in session, "a statement
Showing the names of the borrowers
to whom loans and advances were made
and the amount and rate of interest
in each case"
The question was whether this re-
port should be made public Edwin
Thayer, secretary of the Senate, had
said no. Speaker Garner and Repre-
sentative Rainey. House Democratic
leader, had said yes. President Hoover
had said Senate leaders of both parties
assured him that was not necessary.
And Trimble said
1T appears from the explanatory
statements made by the committee
members in charge of the bill in course
of passage that it was the intent and
purpose of Congress that the reports
submitted by the Reconstruction Corpo-
ration are to be mace public 1t
it. therefore, my duty to permit the re-
ports filed with me to be open to public
inspection"
Because the relief bill became law on
July 81, Trimble decided at the sugges-
tion Of a lawyer, his son. to hold the
report until q month after that date
Sunday the Capitol Offices are closed.
Two More State Loans.
The corporations first statement, now
in Trimble's Office, includes some loans
already announced, such as those ap'
proved by the Interstate Commerce
Commission and advances to States for
relief.
Two more of these State loans were
approved by the corporation as Trimble
made his announcement One was Sc,
10000 to Illinois, because the corpora
ton was informed that Cook County
relief funds would be exhausted to-
night. Illinois on July u got $4,000.
000
The second was $76s, 900 to Ohio for
use in Montgomery, Summit and Trum-
bull Counties. That State already had
borrowed 1925, ,662.
The corporation said it would "hesi.
tate to consider further applications
from Illinois until the State and it,
various political subdivisions have taken
additional action to meet emer.
! gency needs" The advance to Ohio wa.

PICARD PLANNING
ASCENT IN CANADA
Stratosphere aIIoonist
Plans Long Study Of Result
of Second Flight.
BY the Associated Press.

ny Tic hSSOClhLth EAcoc.
DESENzANO, Italy. August 10
Prof. Auguste Picard rested today after
his record breaking ascent into the
stratosphere yesterday. announced he
would begin Immediately to prepare for
a third ascent from the northwest
shore of Hudson Bay, in Canada.
The moment we finish the work of
calculating the results recorded by our
instruments on yesterdays flight" he
said, I'VE will begin preparations for
the third experiment.
I'VE plan to take of from the north
west shore of Hudson Bay as close
as We can get to the North Pole Our
purpose will be to complete the study
of cosmic rays at point where the
lines of magnetic force penetrate the
strsto- phere.
"a solution for many scientific prob
lens will be provided when We know
how the rays act under these condi-
tionS."
Expedition Next Summer.
The third expedition, he said, would
not Begin until the middle OF next
Summer.
Asked what he was going to do now,
the bushy-haired little scientist said
with a smile: I'm going to take
swim in Lake Garda." Lake Garda,
near here. was SPOTTED by him yesterday
from the skies as a guide to landing
and he came down near Its shore.
His next scientific move, he said.
would be to take the instruments he
carried with him yesterday to height
of more than 10 miles above the earth
to Zurich. Switzerland, the starting
point of his fight, to have the seals
removed and the results verified.
Then" he Gs.G. will begin several
months CT figuring on cur experiments,
cnd after that We will be free to start
planning the third fight from Hudson
Bav."
He and Max Cosyns, his companion
on the fight. slept fer II hours last
night, and when they arose this morn
ing there IVES batch of congratulatorv
tsle2rams, among them one from the
King and Queen Of the Belgians.
Like Rain on a Roof"
Prof. Picard said Cosyns did all the
observation Of cosmic rays during the
flight. he himself giving all his attention
to navigation of the balloon.
The rays. he said. increased in in
tensity as the altitude of the balloon
increased. until they were like rain on
a tin roof"
He was too busy with navigation to
observe his own sensations. but he re-
called that the view from above the Alps
was indescribably beautiful. From the
gondola they could see the Tyrrhenian
and Adriatic Seas and the italian LAKES
all at the same time. 1t was difficult to
follow the map, he said, because the
windows of the gondola are SO small.
A great crowd outside the hctel
cheered this morning until the aero
nauts appeared on the balcony
Today or tomorrow Prof. Picard will
go to Verona for scme lighter clothing.
Tonight he broadcasts over an italian
radio hook-up and tomorrow night he
will go back to Zurich.
Pending the examination of the in
struments, Prof. Picard refused to say
more than that he had reached 6
height of nearly $1,000 feet and en-
countered temperatures which were 5
degrees below zero Fahrenheit inside
the spherical aluminium gondo!a and 81
degrees below on the outside.

any evidence whatever.
There is not the slightest proof any
of this money belonged to Mayor
Walker" Curtin said emphatically. 1T
Is neither fair. nor logical, nor lawful
that Mayor Walker should have to ac-
count for all tie money that went into
those accounts"
Curtin cited the fact that Seabury
had declared the special account was
that of Walker land yet by. his own
proceeding in Supreme Court" Sea-
bury had caused the money to be seized
by authorities as the property of Sher-
wood after Sherwood had disappeared.
That" said Curtin, would be face
tious If it were not so serious"

Curtin took up Seabury's assertion
that Walker failed to take steps to
bring Sherwood back after he disap-
peared.
The charge in so far as it relates to
Mayor Walker" said Curtin. lis that
he failed to cooperate"
Curtin said this charge was an "as-
SUMPTION
Did any one come to Mayor Walker
and say, Mayor Walker, we want this
man back Will you help us?'-
THE answer is, No
Your excellency has asked Why
didn't you bring this man back when
you knew he was in Mexico City?'
Personally, I'm glad he (Walker)
didn't attempt it. If he had. and
Sherwood hadn't come back, can't you
hear the wolves howl that what the
mayor really said to him was: 'Sh!
Don't come back'
mo one has the right to assume that
Sherwoods presence in Mexico City
was an unnatural thing.
He knew he was not Mayor Walkers
financial agent and that Mayor Walker
could answer for his own affairs.
And I say to your excellency that
Mayor Walker has answered for his
own affairs, fully and satisfactorily.
Russell T. Sherwood absent is ten
million times more valuable to the other
side than Russell T. Sherwood would
be were he here!"

Marketing.
NEW YORK. August 10 LP.-A large
scale plan to supplement existing credit
facilities In the commodities field was
well on Its way to actual operation to-
day
Formation Of a 10000, 900 commodi-
ties finance corporation was announced
last night by Mortimer N, Buckner,
president of the Clearing House Asso-
ciation here. 1t will be incorporated
today or tomorrow in Delaware.
1t is backed by the Young Commit
tee OF Industrialists and Bankers, as
we'll as leading New York banks. The
plan is to bring the large excess funds
Of New York banks to the aid of bor-
rowers in other sections where credit
is scarce.
Primary Aim Stated.
Buckner said the primary aim was to
facilitate the financing of the pur-
chase, carrying and orderly marketing,
for domestic consumption or export, OF
agricultural and other commodities"
TIE corporation was proposed by
Eugene Meyer 1t will be authorized to
issue up to s50,000,o00 in notes for
which New York banks will be asked
to subscribe. The notes will have be-
hind them all the assets of the cor
poration. which will consist principally
OF capital stock of two subsidiaries
companies which will be formed.
One OF these subsidiaries Is to under
take an acceptance business exclusively
and the other finance business. The
acceptance corporations funds will be
obtained by the issue Of it's shares to
the corporation. A capital stock of S2.-
/, 100000 Is contemplated for the sub
sidiary finance corporation, with ad-
ditional funds to be advanced to 1t by
the corporation when required.
Speculation Is Forbidden.
Bankers sponsoring the corporation
emphasized that 1t would be in no
sense q pool" for speculative buying of
commodities. 1t will make no pur-
chas,s itself, but will extend credit TO
manufacturers and other buyers along
conservative, orthodox policies.
Its purpose primarily Is to employ
some $3.50, o00, 900 Of excess reserves Of
New York banks In stimulating the
movement of commodities in inlr nd
cities where adequate credit Is not
available.
The corporation will be governed by
a board OF directors chosen from the slb-
scribing bank. The board Of direc ors
will meet within few days, prooc bly
