While the Congress Is driving ahead
with the legislation demanded by the
President, communities throughout the
country are preparing to demand that
public works be instituted within their
confines. The pressure for assignment
of part Of the 100000 900 fund is
likely to become tremendous. Vice
President Garner, when Speaker Of the
House in the last Congress, caused q
furore when he introduced his billion
dollar public work BILL providing for
the construction Of hundreds of new
post Offices all over the country. The
bill was referred to by its opponents as
pork barrel" bill, and former Presi-
dent Hoover attacked 1t vigorously.
That proposed expenditure Of billion
dollars, however. pales into insignin-
canoe before the new public works
measure The pulling and hauling for
allotment Of funds to this State or
that, is likely to keep the administra-
ton busy for some time to come.
When the House adjourned late yes
terday, the debate on the Steagall bank
bill had been well launched, and Mr..
Steagall had discussed the measure at
length. Under the rule adopted, gen.
eral debate is limited to four hours
and will be completed tomorrow and the

President Roosevelt last night had nc
comment upon the Paris dispatches
predicting default June is, but he was
understood to be msistent on some sort
of payment.
A step toward international currency
stabilization as another move toward
world prosperity was reported under
way when the President conferred with
Q. w. M. Sprague, financial adviser to
the Bank Of England, here yesterday.
Some comment from official sources
was that no formal attempts toward
stabilization would be made before the
Economic Conference in London June
IL. Sprague's visit with the President
was ofncially described as merely q
friendly call
At the world conference In Geneva
delegates from many nations were
openly jubilant over MIR. Roosevelt's
plan for a universal policy of nom
aggression and the manner with which
his program was greeted, especially by
Germany.
A few spokesmen, however, were
fearful. Frances spokesman said his
nation and her allies were waiting for
Germany to put her assurances for dis
armament as expressed by Chancellor

what 1t would do In case of q war.
A partial answer, at least, was given
to Switzerland by Senator James Ham
ilton Lewis Of Illinois, Democratic
whip In the United States Senate. He
said the United States should refrain
from entering consultative pact with
European powers should 1t entail sit
ting In judgment on conflicts and sug-
gesting penalties.
Japan's reply to Mr.. Roosevelt's ap-
peal for O pact under which nations
would agree to keep their armies at
home was received at the White House.
The Japanese Ambassador thanked
Roosevelt for the Communication in

peace of the world and overcoming the

dor, carried to Secretary Of State Hull

Virginia-Lincoln Corporation Of Bristol
and Marion neared an end this eve
ming, the furniture workers who walked
out Tuesday in protest Of the minute"
system and demand Of O IS cent wage
increase per day apparently were no
nearer effecting an agreement with
their employers than yesterday.
c. c. Lincoln, jr., and his brother,
J. D., both of whom are on q business
trip to the Carolinas, had not returned
today and it is not believed likely that
an agreement will be reached during

The resolution was presented to the
convention from the Southwide Exec
utives and received the unanimous vote
Of the Executive Committee Of the con-
vention. 1t pointed out that the
churches in the South are not averag-
ing 10 per cent Of their funds to State
and Southwide causes, and suggested
that q campaign of publicity in church
periodicals and at all associational
meetings be conducted to correct this
situation.
Merger Proposal Rejected.
Proposed merger of the Foreign and
Home Mission Board in the interests
Of economy was decisively rejected by
the convention in settling for this year,
at least, one Of the most serious ques-
tions before the body.
The report Of the EommiGee on
Budgets and Percentages was approved
without change. This fixes the per-
centage Of distribution of Southwide
funds for next year, SO per cent being
allotted to the Foreign Mission Board
and Is per cent to the Home Mission
Board. The remaining rs per cent
would be apportioned to various activ-
tiles and agencies Of the convention.
Favorable action also was taken on
five recommendations made by the
Promotion Committee. committing the
convention TO q cooperative promo
ton plan, the details Of which will be
carried out later One Of the delegates
warned that If this program is not ap-
proved, "this convention might as well
close and 60 home, for there will be
nothing left for us to do" The con-
vention authorized suficient budget
to carry out the features of the pro-
motion campaign which would seek the
systematic support Of Southern Hsp-
tists everywhere.
