House SuppreSSeS Pay Roll
Report; Economy IsCause

$4,000. This would be about equal
to the combined salaries of two
congressmens wives. Speaker Gar
ner and several others were reluctant
to discuss the matters. Finally
Chairman Linsey T. Warren Dem.,
N. O., of the house accounts ex-
planned what had happened:
LAS an economy move the legis-
lative appropriations subcommit-
tee recommended against printing
the report This year." Warren said.
1T would cost $1,000 or $4,000, and
the committee felt it was a useless
expenditure which could be elm
mated. 1 didn't have anything to
do with that. They sent the re-
port to me and anybody can come
to my committee Office and look
at it."
Last spring. Warren put through
q resolution which opened the house
pay rolls to public inspection.
The reports are so bulky and I'M
organized that the INITIATED would
be able to extract little information
from them. Four months ago house
clerks were unof1icially tipped OF
not to get the report in shape for
publication because Speaker Garner
didn't think they would print it
this year. Usually the report is in
galley proof form by the time the
house meets in December.
Some retiring congressman wish
now the committee had been more
economical 2 year ago.

STORY BACK OF
ST. LAWRENCE
SIGNING WAITED
Maneuver Leading Up to
Signatures on Pact
Sought by Borah.
BY WALKER STONE
Times stan Writer

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.-The
story Of the behind -secenes
maneuyers that preceded signing OF
the st. Lawrence treaty may be
brought to light by Senator VIII
liam e. Borah's subcommittee next
Tuesday.
The two men who know most
about these maneuvers are James
Grafton Rogers, assistant secretary
of state, who handled the Washing
ton end Of the treaty negotiations
and Frank P. Walsh, chairman of
the New York state power authority
They have been summoned to
testify Tuesday at a hearing which
Borah hopes will be the subcom-
mittees final session on the treaty
The treaty was signed uneXpect-
edly last July, just as the presi-
DENTAL campaign got under way. II
had been believed that the sign
ing would not take place until after
the November election.
Refused Roosevelt Plea
But with Republicans in the
northwest circulating rumors that
New York state was holding up the
treaty, Governor Franklin D.
Roosevelt suddenly proposed to
President Herbert Hoover that they
get together, cut through the red
tape and get the treaty signed. Thus
placed on the defensive, Mr.. Hoover
produced signed treaty few days
later.
A few months previous, Mr.. Roose-
welt asked Mr.. Hoover to permit
Walsh to sit in on the negotiations
with Canada as representative of
New York state. Hoover bluntly
refused, thereby preventing the En-
pire state from pressing its conten-
ton that the development should
be one-dam instead of the two
dam project, which finally was ac-
cepted. A one-dam project would
have meant much smaller cost
for the hydro electric development.
The refusal to treat with New
York state, likewise, precluded an
understanding as to the proportion
of the total cost which should be
borne by the state.
One Overture to New York
No such discord existed in Can
ada, where previous to the sign
ing Of the treaty the province of
Ontario agreed with the dominion
government to pay sos, 000,0 900 for
the right to own and operate the
water power plants to be construct
ed at the two dams.
The only overture which the state
department made toward New York
was to indicate that it might be
willing to talk business if the state
would agree to pay $150000,OOO for
the same rights on this side of the
river.
The Niagara Hudson power inter-
ests, which has a virtual monopoly
of power distribution in New York
state, and which secretly has OPP
posed the treaty because Of fear
that a state-owned power system
might offer too stiff competition,
has not indicated a desire to be
heard on the treaty.

Little Faker!
Science SCOTS at Spider
Existing in Clock 19
Days Without Food.
BIZ Lnitcd Press

By United Press
A KRON, o., Dec. 10.-Science
"a scoffed today at what had
been regarded as the spectacular
feat of a black spider which for
nineteen days has been inlpris-
oned on an alarm clock face,
apparently without food, and
trying to fasten a web on the
slowly moving hands.
The spider and its prison were
taken to Akron university from
the home of G. G. Thompson at
Barberton, where it was first no.
ticed nineteen days ago.. and de-
scribed as a tiny, black dot"
The spider now on the clock
face, and vainly attempting to en-
snare the clocks hands in it's web,
is the size of an ordinary house
spider.
Harold L. Madison, director of
the museum of natural history,
Cleveland, asserted that it was
impossible for the spider to grow
from the size of a pin mead to its
present size.
THE spider now observed prob
ably is a female which entered
the works Of the clock, Matched
her young and now is subsisting
by eating her offspring" Madison
said.
1T also is possible that her
mate is inside the clock, and she
obtains food by eating him The
spider first observed probably was
one of the offspring"
Anyhow" Madison said, "the
mother would not have to be eat
ing. They can go for long periods
without food"
