NEW MILK QUIZ
FOR DR.. KING

Whether or not DR.. Clyde King,
milk advisor to the Agricultural
Adjustment Administration, at
tempted to fix milk prices in the
Washington area by an agree
ment between distributors in 1929
will be one of the main points
to be determined when the Sen
ate subcommittee investigating
the milk situation here recon
VeneS.
During the recent hearings,
which several days ago recessed
to permit committee counsel to
obtain additional information, the
charge was made by witnesses
that King had sought to bring
about a price fixing agreement
when he was arbitrator for the
milk industry here in 1929.
Yesterday King issued a flat
denial of the accusations adding
that "the whole story of the
Washington milk situation has
not yet been told" At the same
time he promised to reveal the
whole story" when the distrib-
utors and producers of this area
appear before the Agricultural
Adjustment Association to work
out a plan for fixing milk prices
here.
Elwood Seal, committee counsel,
who expressed surprise that King
had made such a statement, said
today he will present affidavits
from the Department of Justice
files to support the story of the
witnesses who said that King did
attempt to fix prices.
He also said he will subpoena
King before the committee when
it takes up the hearings again
probably in a week or tWo-and
will present the affidavits at that
time.

HAZEN SCORES
ALLEY BILL

Criticism of the alley dwelling
bill introduced in the last ses-
sion of Congress and the sug-
gestion of a survey to determine
facts pertaining to alley homes
featured the annual report Of
District Surveyor Melvin C. Ha-
zen, submitted to the District
Commissioners yesterday.
Mr.. Hazen also recommended
that the District appropriation
for opening streets be unlimited,
as it had been for several years
before the present fiscal year,
and that assessments for bene-
fits be credited to the appropria-
ton to create a revolving fund.
The unlimited appropriation,
he said, enabled the Commission
erS to open many streets which
never would have been acquired
in any other way and the $25 900
appropriation in the present bud
get practically kills all con-
demnation cases."

HOARDED COL D
DECREASES
Nv International News Service

BY International News Service
Gold coin outside of reserve
banks and the Treasury last
month was less than at any
time in the past so years, the
Federal Reserve Board announced
today.
The outstanding gold recorded
equals $32O,O0O,OOO in coin. and
$254,OOO.OOO in gold certificates
in circulation, the latter less
than any time since 1922.
Nearly half a billion in gold
went into hiding during the de,
preston, most of which was
withdrawn during the first quar-,
ter of 1888. Since March there
has been turned in a total of
1925, 100000.
The Department of Justice is
awaiting word from the PreSi-
dent on a plan of further attack
on gold hoarders, most of whom
now are more or less unknown.
Attorney General Cummings eSti-
mated, however, gold still in hid
ing aggregates hundreds of mil
lions of dollars, and has sub
mitted a report to the President.
Meanwhile, figures from Europe
indicate hoarders are causing
concern there. Monetary gold
outside central bank holdings
gained by $20O,0OO.OOO at par
the first quarter, and $300,000,-
900 the second quarter.

sacks, is left from 10000 sacks
given the relief agency last spring.

DR.. Coates, who recently de,
bated the question of nudism

ing to go before heads of the

Der that, although jefferson was one of
the Founding Fathers of our country,
he did not live to see it's full glory
with two major leagues, eight clubs and
a business in admissions mounting to
the millions.
First bounce was definitely out when
jefferson was boy, and even after he
became man and a pretty good Presi-

and didn It know bunt from a base hit.
So we must forgive him his ignorance
as we praise him for being brief. In
fact, all I know of his feelings about
