IF CREDIT is GOOD
Amount Mentioned in Early Ne.
gotiation is 10 to IS
Million Bushels
FORMER DEAL RECALLED
Teutons Bought 100000
Bushels in September;
Minor is In Berlin

Washington, April 8-R)-If salts.
factory credits can be arranged Ger.
many may buy between 10000, 900 and
100000 bushels of farm board
sterilization wheat.
Discussion Of additional purchases
has gone on at intervals since that
government bought 100000 bushels
last September. George S. Minor
general manager of the Grain Stabil-
ization corporation, talked with Ger
man officials in Berlin yesterday.
Prospects for consummating q new
deal appeared today to hinge around
the extension Of credits by private
bankers.
At the board. 1t was said longtime
credits similar to the transaction
made last fall could not be financed
by 1t and in view Of its sterilization
investments 1t could consider only
cash sales.
Milnor has been in Europe for the
last three weeks surveying wheat
markets, chiefly In connection with
export sales of the Farmers National
Grain corporation, center sales agen-
cy for grain cooperatives. of which
he Is also general manager.
In a telephone conversation with
Stone, Minor reported that prospec-
tive demand In importing countries
was steadily increasing.
The sterilization wheat now con-
trolled by the board amounts to 1885,
000, 900 bushels with about $4,000, 900
more In futures.
Secretary Hyde has suggested $780,
000, 900 of reconstruction finance cor
poration funds voted by congress for
agriculture be used to finance export
sales, both sterilization and private
stocks, rather than for loans to farm
ers for 1882 crop production.
A number of foreign governments
have made offers to the farm board
for wheat purchases. but they all in
volve credit sales. Hyde's suggestion
contemplates sales principally to non
competitive markets such as the
Orient.

Chicago, April 8.-(R-The govern
ment has slipped another major cog
out Of "Scarface al" Capone,s liquor
and vice machine and put him on a
train with the federal penitentiary at
Leavenworth the consignee.
The cog was Jack Guzik, reputed
business manager of Capone's under
world syndicate. He left last night In
the luxury of private drawing room
coach he himself had paid for to be-
gin serving five-year term for dodg-
ing the income tax.
There was an apparently downcast
look on Guzik's face as he surrender
ed himself to the custody of the dep
uty United States marshals, his
guests" in the private car for the
trip.
But the corners of his mouth sagged
even lower when an internal revenue
agent stepped up before the train
chugged away and served him with a
lien for $4,000. the sum of his un-
paid tax, which he must remit, be-
sides, a $l7,50O fine.
Guzik was scheduled to leave Friday
with group Of convicted narcotic
peddlers, thieves and other petty vio-
lators, but he gave. up one day Of free
dom and the price OF the private Car
to avoid their company.

SHOWDOWN SESSION
ON ECONOMY PLAN
LOOMS AT CAPITAL
Hoover and Members Of House
Committee to Exchange
Views at Conference

Washington, April s.-F-A show
down session on government re-
trenching is in prospect when Presi-
dent Hoover and the special house
economy committee get together Sat-
urday morning.
Since his quick acceptance Of the
invitation and challenge contained in
the committees formal request for
specific savings recommendations, the
chief executive has been gathering
material for the meeting in a long
succession Of consultations with cab
met members and department heads.
Inviting them to the meeting, Mr..
Hoover put the house leaders on no.
tice that he wanted an accounting of
their progress toward achieving econ
omy independently. At the same
time he told them bluntly he expected
to put across his project for an econ
omy group or commission represent
Ing house, senate, and the president,
which would draw well-rounded
plan for reorganizing and abolishing
unnecessary or wasteful bureaus.
The Democrats, with much indig-
nant speech-making, had brushed
aside this plan. They argued there
was no time left for such q commits
sion to get any results; that its work
would drag on past adjournment
time and no legislation could be look
ed for before the November election.
Their machinery was already set up
In congress. they contended, so let the
president put down his recommended
tons in black and white and leave
the rest to them.
This attitude was carried forward
in the house committees demand for
Hoover's specific ideas. Chairman
McDuffie (Dem.. Ala, informed the
president the committee realized "as
you, too, must recognize" that the
situation precluded political partisan
ship.
Hoover replied he welcomed the re-
Spouse Ito my suggestion" that the
situation necessitated honest and
non-partisan action.
From words spoken by those who
conferred with the president Secre-
tary Mills, administrator Hines Of We
terans affairs, and othersEit appear
ed something definite would be put
forward Saturday.
Meantime, however, the reactions of
cabinet members to the senate plan
for q flat 10 per cent cut In appro-
prtatious Of all departments showed
these men could see In the plan moth
ing but serious difficulties and great
reductions In the number Of govern
ment clerks Is well Is In the salary
scales.

R00SEVELT'S SWEEP
SHOWS MORE POWER
During LAST WEEK
New Yorker Carrying All Be.
fore Him; Many Are Con-
ceding Nomination

Washington. April 8.-(ReThe
presidential candidacy of Franklin D
Roosevelt continues to sweep all OBJ
stacles aside with such spectacular
regularity that many Democratic
leaders now speak of his nomination
as an accomplished fact.
Some still hope for his defeat. but
they concede only an extraordinary
reversal Of form or desperate stand
In the convention can stop him.
The opposition has been surprised
not only by his strength, but by their
own weakness. The major reliances
Of the combination against him are
fading one by one.
During the last week. In the New
York and Wisconsin primaries, Gov
ernor Roosevelt has flattened out still
further the hopes Of those few lead
ers who felt Alfred E. Smith might
stop the procession. One more fav-
orite son, Senator Joe T. Robinson of
Arkansas. has stepped aside to leave
a delegation unpledged but friendly
to Roosevelt. A tactical victory, at
least, was won by selection of Senator
Alben Barkely of Kentucky. A Roose-
welt man, as the national convention
keynoter.
Smith Badly Beaten
The defeat of Smith successfully In
New Hampshire. Minnesota, Maine.
Wisconsin. and single contested New
York district, has conceded with re-
cession of activity on behalf of Speak
er John N. Garner. the other great
hope of the stop Roosevelt movement.
Nor have the fortunes Of any fav-
orite son been benefited materially.
In fact. except for one or two dele
gates, no candidate but Roosevelt has
won any support at all outside his
home state. Alfalfa Bill" Murray Of
Oklahoma has one In North Dakota.
and Smith probably has one In Wis
conSin.
OF the 1913 delegates chosen thus
far, 174 are counted definitely for
Roosevelt. Murray has %, James A.
Reed Of Missouri, IS. Smith probably
/. All the remaining l04 are In doubt,
but 81 Of them belong to New York,
generally expected to 60 preponder-
antly to Roosevelt.
On the basis Of this showing, and
with other victories assured for the
near future, the Roosevelt managers
are sounding the bandwagon call with
great effect in the territory still III
dispute. The opposition battles on,
with its back to the wall. as its dis
appointments multiply.
Republicans Cheered
Meantime, the Republican support
ers Of President Hoover are heartened
tremendously by the returns from
their party's primary In Wisconsin.
OF course, the president does not
need Wisconsin support to get the
To date he has $50 Of
the 288 Republican delegates selected
and q denomination is assured. But
the vote Of confidence given him In
this northwestern state. Of all others,
Is cheering to Republican hearts
which have been saddened by dark
Of party losses In the elec-
ton this fall.
The Wisconsin vote is important
just In SO far as 1t may be taken as
an index to the Hoover strength else
where. Republican party leaders
have insisted all along that however
low the presidents stock might 60. a
rally would come before election.
They hope the Wisconsin upturn
means that the rally Is definitely on
The way.

The Waterbury Democrat., 1932-06-10
and Will Quote You on Any Repair or Remodeing Worl

Quick shedding of water may also be accomplished; by proper grad ing. Waterproo1ng and draintiles around the footings are often nec- essary.
 Cracks in Exterior Walls
 Since the widespread use of stucco, cracks are among the most common defects to be found in ex- terior walls. If cracks are insight ly or large enough to admit mois- ture which may damage underly- ing structure and interior walls, 1t Is advisable to repair them.
 Forty reasons have been found for cracks in ceilings and interior walls. Which makes it easy to un- derstand why almost every house. hold suffers, in one way or another. from this trouble. Structural cracks, map and shrinkage cracks. loose plaster, holes in plaster. bulged or hanging plaster, should all be repaired as soon as possible. Prompt plastering should not be considered an expense, but an economy. It may be suggested here, parenthetically, that'it is ex- tremely worthwhile and cheap to whitewash a dark cellar.
 Flaws in Chimneys
 The chimney should be carefully inspected for flaws. Sometimes there is leakage through the joint caused by the chimney foundations between the chimney and roof, settling, or, vice versa, by the chimney foundation's not settling and the frames shrinkage and settling. If the top of the chim- ney Is not properly covered with a coping or chimney top. water may run down between the bricks and the fne lining to stain the wall surfaces below. The connection be- tween the roof and the masonry of the chimney should be flashed with metal to turn the water away from the joint. Chimney repairs. highly important as they are. cost little.

A Safe House from

A Safe House from
 Foundation fO. Chimney
 A home that is ready safe and healthfuI to live in is safe all the way: from top to bottom; chimney to foundation. Never 1s this fact more clearly demonstrated than in the winter. If house trouble begins it usually begins in the foundation, the walls, the plaster, or the chim- ney. Now is the time to forearm against any such trouble.
 The foundation itself can be a source of great dffficulties.. Cracks or Assures in foundation walls and the falling out of mortar from be- tween joints are among the most common faults. Small cracks may become larger from action of the winter weather. Frost has ten- dency to attack the weak sjots and do it's part in increasing the dam age. Water seeping through the cracks gradually wears away the material and causes it to crumble and fall away. The results of these failures are far-reaching, and, IF not remedied, may result in still further damage, not only to the walls, but the structure they sup port.
 Foundation Repair
 Minor cracks in foundation walls are quickly, inexpensively re- paired. If, however, a wall is bad ly cracked and crumbled beyond the aid of minor repairs, it may be essential to reconstruct all or part of the wall.
 Since a wet cellar often results from waters penetrating the walls or floors, provision should be made to carry off this water before 1t comes in contact with the founda- ton. Where down spouts are not connected with the sewers, 1t is ad- visable to place spatter board or splash block at the outlets to throw the roof water away from the wall.
