ber she enrolled her brother

''My brothers name is Martin.
He is eight years old anil his

he ought to have bad luck, but
he never does. His luck is al

HELD
BORN FAILURE

PATERSON, N. j., Feb. 16
G.N.SO.-Giuseppe Zangara, who
tried to kill President-elect Roose-
velt, was born to failure.
He is vague figure to the men
with whom he worked in Paterson,
Passaic, and Hackensack. They
remember him only as name. He
never stood out from his fellows
through the excellence of his
work and he never gave a hint Of
tormenting fires smoldering be-
hind the dull face he presented to
the world.
Today Gov. A. Harry Moore Of
New Jersey instructed H. zim-
mermann, in charge of Hacken-
sack police, to look up the mans
record. Zimmermann's report is
that so far as is known, zangara
was a timorous, unobtruSive man
just one of the crowd Of tranSi-
tory workers drifting from job
to job in this industrial section
of New Jersey.
John F. McGrogan, business
agent of the Bricklayers and
Plasterers Union, Local No. 2, to
which Zangara belonged, said the
man had never taken an active
part in the affairs of the union.

in order to unload upon the
people stocks and bonds at highly
inflated prices" He added:
"The bankers got real money
for this paper"
Hyland accused the Federal Re
serve Board and it's member
banks of direct completely in a
scheme by international bankers
to corner the worlds gold supply.
He demanded:
"Who can deny that the Fed
eral Reserve administration, in
cooperation with the central
bankers of Europe, was utilized
to secure control of gold to regu-
late circulation of all kinds of
money, currency and credit in
this country and abrOad?" he
demanded.
"Who will contend that the
system has been administered
in the interest of legitimate
business and industry?"
CALLED "GREATEST SHAM
Hylan asserted that the plan to
induce foreign governments to
adopt the gold standard, success
fully operated all over the world" :"
was "the greatest sham of the
ages" He teStifid:
"This has already brought
many of these countries to the
verge of bankruptcy"
AS remedies for "the present in
tolerable situation" he urged
actual Government possession of
enough monetary metal to main
tain currency and credit; wider
circulation on metallic money
among the masses, and direct con-
troll by Congress over the expan-
sion and contraction of currency
and credit.

Hylan declared that mot salts

set out to secure control of the

necessities of life"
Reserve System Perverted
The Federal Reserve system
has been perverted into a tool
through which the credit and
currency of America are ruth
lessly exploited by a powerful
banking group, the witness de-
clared. He continued:
"The system is being manipu-
lated so as to give us finan-
cial government of the banks,
by the banks and for the banks.
"In enforcing their interna-
tiOnaI equilibrium policy by the
fOrcible reduction of the prices
of commodities, the interna-
tiOnaI bankers and their allies
are reducing the wages of Amer
lean wOrkmen to the level of
the pauper labor of Europe.
"The distribution of dOles

to keep the people quiet while

operation"

Newly approved proce ure
would automatically have made
Vice President-elect John Nance
Garner the successor to President
Hoover if the aSSaSSin'S shot had
struck and killed Mr.. Roosevelt.
This is the procedure under the
Senate joint resolution number IA,
popularly known as the lame duck
amendment, the twentieth amend
ment to the Constitution Of the
United States, introduced by Sen
ator Norris, of Nebraska, and re-
Gently ratified by the necessary
number of States.
A section provides:
eff at the time fixed for the
beginning of the term of the
President elect shall have died.
the Vice President-elect shall
become President"
Proclaimed by Secretary of State
Stimson on January 80, the new
amendment is now the law of the
land, with the exception of Sec
tions one and two which provide
for the Presidents taking office on
January 20 and the assembling of
a new Congress. These sections
have been held in allegiance until
october IS c. this year, when they
automatically go into effect.
Previous to the adoption of the
twentieth amendment there had
been no provision in the United
States Constitution for such an
emergency as might have arisen
