Roosevelt Cheered As Many
Place Agreement in Effect
Before Proposed Date
By International News Service

President Roosevelt today
characterized the magnificent
public response to his radio
appeal as assuring the COM
plete success of the national
recovery program,
With the number of telegraphic
pledges of support mounting to
the $4,000 mark, the President
was highly gratified and his con-
fidence was plainly apparent TO
day when he received newspaper
reporters in the regular press
conference.
Code Already In Force
The most gratifying thing
about the response, the President
said, was that many of the mes.
sageS stated the senders were not
waiting until August l to put into
effect the shorter hours and
minimum wages, but were acting
Immediately.
Another gratifying feature, the
President said, was the diversified
ton of the response. Represented
in the $4,000 kilograms, which
were continuing to pour in today,
were large and small employers
in every State and section of the
country. Every industry was rep
resented.
Seek To Hire 100000
The President would not at
tempt to estimate the number of
workers who will be re-employed
under the recovery act, although
some of his aides have set a goal
of 100000.
The public works authorization
is now mountaing toward the
billion dollar mark. Projects will
be released as fast as the neces-
sary machinery can be assembled.
Brig. Gen. Hugh S. Johnson,
administrator of the National Re-
covery Act. reiterated in a radio
talk last night Administration
promises 5000 900 less unemployed
by Labor Day, the first Monday in
September.
General johnson today said:
Nobody needs a fixer to get
anything from the National Re

He warned against "a new kind
of racket" by those who would set
themselves up as "fixers." He
added:

B|LLETS NEAR
WHITE HOUSE
PLANNED
Wheel Chair Brigade To Camp
In Lafayette Park in Pro-
test of Economy Cut

Another army Of ex-service
men-one which promises to be
the most unusual and dramatic
Washington ever has known
is being mobolized throughout
the United States to descend
on the Nations Capital next
month.
The nucleus of this proposed
army Of World War veterans will
be. composed Of crippled veterans
in wheel chairs and they will be
billeted in Lafayette Park opposite
the White House.
Robertson Leads Group
All of this came from the lips
of Roy w. Robertson, colorful vet
eran from Los Angeles, who led
the death march" around the
Capitol last year during the bonus
ar1ny's occupation here. Robert
son, whose neck is encaSed in a
snetal brace, said today:
This new march on to Wash
ingtOn is being planned so that
one of these fine summer morn
ings President Roosevelt will see
the most pathetic sight he has
ever witnessed when he opens
his front door,"
Robertson said word has been
broadcast throughout the nation
but he declined to say how many
veterans would reach here or
exactly when they would arrive.
He continued:
1--WE want the people of the
country to know what is con-
fronting the veterans today.
This new army is called The

Robertson added:
"And furthermore, we will
not ask a single penny from
the citizens of Washington
while we are there. 1t is up
to the Government to care for
us-fOr all of the men who
have been kicked out of hos
pitalS-and if they move us it
will probably be to Arlington
Cemetery"
It was said that the veterans
will ask for abolition of the
economy act, disqualification for
veterans and immediate pay
ment of the bonus. The appeal
will be made directly to the
President, Robertson said.

By JAMES L. KILGALLEN
Copyright, 1888; by International
News Service.)
NEW YORK, July 26G.N.S.).
1.-The American people evi.
dently haven't learned the
lesson of the 1929 stock
market crash"
Ferdinand Pecora, special coun-
sci for the Senate Banking and
Currency COMMITTEE, made this
observation today in an interview
in which he told of his plans for
an exhaustive investigation Of
market conditions.
Opposed to Gambling
Pecora said there seems to be
no question that the general pub
lie, so hard hit in the 1929 crash,
is back in the market to a large
extent. He is opposed to stock
market gambling as differentiated
from investment and believes
something should be done to pre-
vent violent market fluctuations
such as, for example, last
weeks sudden collapse of prices.
Applying the brakes to margin
trading" is, in his opinion, one of
the most logical steps to put an
end to stock market gambling.
Speculation would be reduced,
he declared, if those in the market
were forced to buy on so per
cent margin rather than on a Is
per cent margin, as at present.
Pecora and his staff are now
inquiring into stock exchange
practices and, among other
things, they are investigating the
cause of the drastic declines in
the market last week which for a
time seemed to threaten Presi-
dent Roosevelt'S economic recov-
cry movement.
COnferS With Whitney
Among those Pecora conferred
with this week was Richard Whit
ney, president of the New York
Stock Exchange.
Asked to express his attitude on
violent price fluctuations on the
exchange, such as occurred so un-
eXpectedly last week on the heels
of a rising market, Pecora said:
"When violent fluctuations
are the result of manipulation
or are due to the operation of q
forces within the control of per-
sons connected with the ex-
change, those forces should be
brought within some form of
regulation which would restrict
their operation"
Pecora recalled that when he
examined Otto H. Kahn during
the recent inquiry in Washington,
they discussed gambling in stocks
as distinguished from investment.
Pecora said:
1y own feeling is that sheer
gambling should be curbed if it
is at I'll possible to do So"
He declared that the conclusion
that gambling has been going on
