mediate Government approval of plan
for exporting 100000 bushels Of Pa
cific Coast wheat was predicted today
by Frank A. Theis. chief of the wheat
section of the Agricultural Adjustment
Administration
Theis said the plan involved export
ing the wheat, mostly from Oregon and
Washington, and sale of it at the world
price. He said substantial Federal
ALLEGATION, perhaps seven or eight mil
lion dollars would be necessary to
make up the difference between the
world and the domestic prices of
wheat
"The plan is on its way to Washing

approved and en- route back to the West
Coast before the end Of this week"
A trading association to allocate the
surplus would be set up under the plan
Theis said ana operations would be
handled by the established grain trade

is going into the grain business" Theis
said.

Intends to Go Ahead in Building a
Treaty Navy.
By the Associated Press.
President Roosevelt intends to go
ahead without restriction on the $23S,-
600 GOO program to build the Navy up
to treaty limits.
Reports have been current from
abroad that suggestions had been made.
to Norman H. Davis, Americas rowing
Ambassador. that there be some aban-
donment or curtailment of the building
program.
It was asserted at the White House
that no such suggestions actually had
been received by the Pr, . ,cnt himself,
even though some such word might have
been delivered to other sources
The President let 1t be known that
contracts have been let for the program
and that under no circumstances was
there any intention Of calling back
these contracts or altering plans.
1t appears that any suggestion tnat
NAV have been made to the United
states by Great Britain would concern
the four Glass B cruisers called Tor py
the program, which would lay down
tonnages up to the last pound OF the
lO,OOO-ton limit with 6-inch guns.
Those familiar with British naval
contentious in past conferences unoer-
stand that England desires smaller
maximum on the Glass type, ana
feels that should these ships be con-
structed there would be little possibility
of eliminating this larger type OF Vessel
at the 1885 naval conference.

BRITAIN FEARS j. S.
WILL HURT PARLEY
Davis Is Told That Navy
Building May Launch
Construction Race.
3y the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
LONDON, September 20.-The Brit
ish government told United States Am
bassador at Large Norman H. Davis on
his recent visit here that the American
naval building program might make
bad impression on other countries on
the eve of the Disarmament Confer
ence.
This authoritative explanation was
advanced today for reports from Wash
ington that Britain had requested the
United States to defer its construction
schedule.
It is understood Mr.. Davis was in
formed that Britain was not herself
worried about American construction,
but feared others might be.
This was qualified by a statement
that there might be apprehension in
England if a naval race developed be-
tween Japan and America, In Wnlcn
case Britain might be forced to enter
the competition.
Consider French Problem.
A special full dress cabinet meeting
was called today to discuss important
contentious put forward by the Frencn
in connection with the projected olS-
armament convention.
Dtsputable problems regarding secu-
rity. the supervision Of armamentS ana
control, are understood to have been
raised in the Anglo-French conVersa-
tions in Paris this week, and 1t Is the
task of the British government to try
liuarCanrioS 0f Onlnl0n
Meanwhile reports from Paris are
that Mr.. Davis is awaiting an Anglo
French agreement as guide for ms
future activities. It Is said unofnclaly
that France and England already nave
agreed on such general lines as that
there is to be substantial disarmament,
but it will not be effective until trial
period of control has shown that dis
armament Is feasible.
Control Test Problem.
During this period the nations would
maintain their present armamentS. one
of the main differences between Britain
and France is said to revolve about the
question of how 1t Is to be decided
whether the control period has been
successful.
Britain, it is understood. contends
France should disarm after the trial
period unless she can prove that Ger
many has not lived up to the agree
ment.
France, on the other hand, insists II
be proved that Germany has 1ulnl!eo
her obligations. Also, the French diner
On what sort of control there should be.
The British take the attitude that
there should be no investigations in any
country unless one of the signatorles
of the convention complains that there
has been a violation. France. however
would prefer the so-called automatic
international control. which would pro-
vide regular investigation.

new DAVIS TRIAL
SPEEDED BY JUDGE
Prosecution Seeks to Show
lottery Tickets Were
Shipped by Moose.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, September 20.-A sud-
den change Of procedure, ordered by
the court, today speeded up the second
Federal lottery trial Of United States
Senator James J. Davis.
The change caused Assistant United
States Attorney Louis Mead Treadwell
to withdraw Donald F. Stewart, Loyal
Order of Moose Magazine editor, from
the stand and replace him with James
w. Reid. Scranton, Pa, printer, to Of
fer testimony relating to the printing
Of alleged lottery tickets and their ship
ment across State lines In 1881.
Tries to Show knowledge.
Treadwell opened his case yesterday
with evidence meant to show that Davis
knew Of the conduct of Moose charity
balls in 1880, the balls involving an al
legged national lottery. Defense attor-
neys argued today that. since the In
dictment on which Davis and his CO.
being tried charges the shipment of
lottery tickets in 1881, any evidence re-
lating to an alleged lottery of 1880 was
improper
Judge johnson Hayes Of North Caro-
lima. tentatively upheld the defense. but
decreed there should be further argu-
ment in chambers later. Stewart left
the stand without cross-examination.
Tickets Ordered BY Moose.
Reid testified his firm, the Eureka
Specially Printing Co. of Scranton,
printed alleged lottery tickets on order
Of the Moose Propagation Department
and sent them by van to the Office Of
B. c. MCGUIRE in New York.
MCGUIRE is professional promoter
who pleaded guilty to the Moose lottery
charge after being convicted in the
Eagles lottery case. Miller is secretary
OF the Moose Propagation Department.
Senator Davis is lifetime director gen.
eral Of the Moose
with Miller in the printing of the
tickets. although the bill went to his
department.
Allen E. Stecker, shipping clerk for
the Eureka Specially Co., then identi-
fed numerous documents relating to the
ticket shipments
With Stewart on the stand. Tread
we'll introduced files of the magazines
and letters to show Davis exercised
absolute control over the Moose and
knew Of all its activities.
Assigned by Davis in 1929.
Stewart testif1ed Davis assigned
Miller to como ct charity balls in 1929.
No lottery is charged for that year, but
TreadweE sought to show Davis took
an interest in this activity.
The young prosecutor also introduced
files OF the Moose magazine, which,
speaking Of the charity balls said
Director General Davis has ordered
Theodore G. Miller to push this matter
to the limit
Stewart also told the jury advertise
ments about the prize award feature
of the charity balls were taboo" in
the Moose magazine. The whole mat
ter of prizes was taboo with me. so far
as the magazine was concerned he
said.

ready and anxious to make loans as lib
orally as possible. He knew nothing of
the Smith statement until it had been
distributed to the press-through the
regular publicity channels of the Re-
serve Board.
Mr. Smiths declaration took on un-
usual importance because of the i'm
possibility CT harmonizing it with the
administration program of credit ex-
pansion as recently enunciated by Jesse
Jones. chairman of the Reconstruction
Finance Corporation. The plan Mr..
Jones announced would, in effect, put
the Reconstruction Finance Corpora
tion into competition with the Federal
Reserve Banks as a rediscount agency.
Mr.. Smiths recommendation that banks
should not make loans not eligible for
rediscount with Reserve banks amount
ed to advice not to make loans permis-
sible under the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation has indicated willingness
to accept as certain kinds Of collateral
not now eligible for rediscount at Re-
serve banks.
Group of Twelve.
The Federal Advisory Council is a
group Of IL men representing the
banks of each of the Federal Reserve
districts Its functions are purely ad-
visorv and were conceived originally
to offset the possibility that Federal
Reserve Board members might get out
of touch with the banking sentiment
throughout the country. The Federal
Advisory Council members are regarded
in this instance as rejecting the
orthodox bankers viewpoint, as set
forth in a report to the recent con-
ventions of the American Bankers As
sociation in Chicago by its Economic
Policy Commission, of which Col
Leonard P. Ayres Is chairman.
In that report, the commission
viewed with apprehension the prop
aganda now being featured In the pub
lie press which brings pressure on the
banks to adopt ultra-liberal lending
policies in support Of the lending cam
paign now under way"
THE objectives of the recovery
campaign justify all the support that
banks can rightfully give, but they
justify it just so long as that support
involves good banking and does not
jeopardize the funds of 6epositors,
the report stated.
The statement by Mr. Smith. it was
noted. followed the same line. 1t sent
administration leaders into conference
to see what reply, if any. should be
made. It was regarded as another
challenge by the orthodox bankers to
the administrations credit expansion
policy, the more significant in that II
was made in the Treasury Building
itself and directly under the guns" Of
the administration.
