ROOSEVELT,
| GOVERNORS PLEA
Proclamations Issued in Ac.
cordance With Conference
Resolution.

Governors Of number OF States to-
day issued proclamations calling upon
the people to unite Fundamentally be-
hind President Roosevelt for the good Of
the Nation, in accordance with a reso-
luton adopted by the Governors con-
ference here Monday after it was sub

The resolution submitted by the COM
mittee, which includes Alfred E. Smith
Newton D. Baker, William Green and
DR.. Nicholas Murray Butler. follows:
I'VE respectfully submit to your con-
hour calls for national unity in support
OF our President-a unity even more
complete and unseIfish than that neces-
sary in war.
Responsibilities Cited.
"Our President has responsibilities as
grave as have ever fac2d a great leader
in our history. His is the task of re-
establishing our national faith in our
ability to go forward. under God, with
the march of democracy.
we respectfully CSClGTe LfldL Ine
people must share with their leader this
great responsibility
I'VE, the undersigned, have cast aside
politics and group and sectional inter-
est in spirit Of cooperation with the
President, and We believe that this same
spirit animates our whole people. Be-
You'd that we are convinced that there
is throughout the Nation a spontane-
Gus spiritual uprising of confidence and
hope in ou- chosen leader. The nature
Of our national crises calls for an ex-
preston of this confidence in the COM
bined voice Of the people to show that
they are behind him, alert aud vocal
and united in heart.
Prompt and decisive action Of a ma
tiOnal scope, and in several directions,
Is necessary to prevent economic COL
lapse throughout the land The ordi-
nary operations of Government that
prevail and are suitable in time Of pros
perty, with normal conditions may be
too slow to meet adequately this ene~-
gency and avoid the danger Of this
economic avalanche carrying all be-
fore it.
Asks Governors to Join.
I'VE, coalition committee of differ
ent groups and political and religious
faiths, respectfully request that you join
the other Governors of our country in
the issuance of proclamation on
Wednesday. March 8, 1888, in support
Of the President of the United States
and our institutions, thus enabling the
whole people to declare in unison their
confidence and faith in our President.
This would constitute the peoples ap-
peal to the patriotism of Congress which
We know they possess, in common with
all. to cooperate with the President in
taking such action as will guarantee
economic stability, restore confid nee
and thereby relieve unemployment and
widespread distress"
After the Governors conference had
adopted the resolution, Admiral Byrd
called at the White House to report on
the action. submitting the following
letter:

vital necessity of national unity in the

SMITH HEADS UNIT
FOR ISSUING SCRIP
Former Governor Awaits
Washington Action Before
Approving Certificates.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, March 8-Alfred E.
Smiths hand was at the controls today
as brand-new machinery for providing
the people of New York State with
scrip got ready to hum
There was no definite indication,
however, as to when the command go"
would be given or whether it would be
given at all. There is a proviso that
makes the plans for New York State
dependent on what action President
Roosevelt takes toward emergency cur
rency for the Nation.
Lehman Picks Smith.
Gov Herbert H. Lehman, newly made
dictator of New York banks, named
Smith as chairman of the Emergency
Certificate Corporation last night
shortly after the Legislature approved
the set-up Of the corporation. The or
ganiZation, under strict State control,
would issue certificates against the
sound assets of banks.
The scrip would not conflict with that
planned by the clearing house associa-
lions, Lehman said. 1t would serve sec
tons and people that the clearing house
scrip would be inadequate to serve. in
his opinion.
Lehman announced that besides
Smith other incorporators and directors
of the new corporation would be: For
mer Gov. Nathan L. Miller. Lincoln
Cromwell, acting president of the Mer-
chants Association of New York City;
Jerome D. Barnum, publisher Of the
Syracuse Post Standard, and Robert
Jackson, jamestown attorney.
Wait Washington Action.
The Governor, engaged in a strenuous
round of conferences at his home, said
the State scrip would not 60 into cir
culation before Friday at the earliest.
1T takes some time to engrave and print
scrip" he said. Monday nights permit
from the Treasury Department was sub
ject to revocation if a national plan
was agreed upon and We will not go
ahead with printing until we get final
authority from Washington"

CUBA GETS MONEY
TO REOPEN BANKS
S15,000,000 From Atlanta
Reserve Institution to Reach
Havana Today.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
HAVANA, March 8-Secretary of
State Ferrara announced that sl5,000,-
900 would reach Cuba today to bulwark
reserves of local banks against their
reopening, set for tomorrow.
The secretary made the announce
ment after a telephone conversation
with the governor Of the Federal Re-
serve Bank in Atlanta. Following heavy
Withdrawals Saturday, President Ma
chado on Sunday decreed banking
holiday until Thursday morning.
S6,000,0 Already Received.

ceiptS to keep cash on hand at around
ten millions, the normal figure, the Fed
eral Reserve up until today had received

according to unofficial estimates, to
around 100000
Branches of American banks Gnclud-
ing the National City and the Chase
NationaD. had received another seven
millions from their head Offices before
President Roosevelt placed an embargo
on gold expectations.
No official action was announced on
the Associated Merchants request that
President Machado extend the banking
moratorium to cover all commercial
obligations falling due in the holiday
period. Bankers pointed out that the
moratorium, in effect, exists, since no
creditor is pressing for payment.
Public in Good HumOr.
While government spokesman reiter-
ated their confidence in the American
banking system. the public appeared to
be taking the closing of the banks In
increasing good humor.
Tourists are finding it possible to
cash travellers checks. while hotels and
other establishments are extending
credit and limited cash. Checks against
deposits in the closed institutions are
accepted quite freely.

AUSTRIAN DICTATOR
HA[TS UNION PLAN
Agitation for Joining Reich
Blocked by DoIIfuss
Measures.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
VIENNA, Austria, March 8.-The
"Anschluss" movement for a union of
Germany and Austria, spurred by
Chancellor Hitler's electoral victory in
Germany, bumped up against the
stone wall Of an Austrian distatorship
today.
Chancellor Engelbert Dollfuss as
sumed the powers of dictator upon the
invitation of President Wilhelm Miklas,
who refused TO accept the resignation OF
the Dollfuss cabinet
A rigid censorship was ordered and
political demonstrations OF all kinds
were banned. The chancellor promised
ruthless maintenance of public peace
Demonstrations Held.
The action was believed aimed at the
enthusiastic demonstrations throughout
the country Monday night, celebrating
the Hitler victory and urging the
"Anschluss." Alfred Frauenfeld, leader
Of the Hitlerites, had made a threat to
seek power by force unless elections
were permitted.
The Austrian Parliament had been
unable to function since the resigna-
ton Saturday night Of its officers, who
had sole power to call it in session.
Chancellor Dollfuss' Christian Social
(Catholic) party, which lacked a clear
majority In Parliament. has been only
luke-warm on the subject Of "Ansch-
luss," which Htlerites ardently ad-
yocate.
But when France and England re-

The reorganization of the little
entente, former possessions of the
Austro Hungarian Empire, also spurred
the "Anschluss" movement
The Socialist party, dominant In
Vienna, though weak elsewhere, strongly
opposes union with Germany and at

BY the Associated Press.

FOOD [AD|NC BILLS
HONORED BY BANKS
PerishabIe Produce Con-
tinueS to Move Across
D. c. Markets.

PeriShable produce shipped through
the medium of bills of lading continued
to move across the Washington market
today as local banks honored drafts
covering bills of lading relating to food
shipments, in line with the orders Is
sued by Secretary of the Treasury
Woodin regarding food and feed.
Meanwhile. however. the prospect OF
dearth Of fresh supplies from the
produce areas of nearby Maryland and
Virginia loomed as possibility. with
"haulerS" bearing lesser quantities to
the city's markets, due to q lack OF
ready cash.
Ready for Drafts.
Washington banks assured commits
sion merchants and other dealers in
fresh food that they stood ready to
handle drafts attached to bills Of lad
ing for shipment of this type Of mer-
chandise. The accommodation, how
ever. was absolutely restricted to eat
ableS, and no funds were released for
any other purpose
In some instances the banks notified
consignees of receipt of drafts, and in
cases where account balances covered
the amount named the transactions
were allowed to proceed Railroads, also.
were accepting checks in payment for
bills Of lading and freight charges.
Merchants in the various markets re-
ported that hucksters bringing in pro-
duce from farms in nearby States have
in several instances found themselves
unable to function without ready cash.
The danger of real crisis, for the pres
ent at least, was belittled by commodity
merchants questioned today. The only
sufferers at present, they said, are the
producers themselves
Distributors here reported that ship
pers and growers have been insisting
upon cash at the source, and they
pointed out that shortage may develop
If the present situation continues for
many more days.
Cash at Docks.
In the cases of freight by boat, usu-
ally arriving in Baltimore en- route to
Washington, local merchants have been
compelled to be ready with cash at the
docks to allow the release of commodi-
ties. One instance was reported of
several thousand bushels of potatoes,
headed for District markets. which was
tied up because Of lack of cash.
As Washington went into the third
day OF the banking holiday proclaimed
by President Roosevelt, and the fifth
day Of closed financial houses, due to
the Inaugural day holiday and Sunday,
local retailers continued to report a
steady flow Of business In some quar-
tiers, slowing up was reported, but in
the main merchants said there ap-
peared to be normal demands on their
businesses.
Business Not Altered.
The emergency situation has not
forced any of the larger retail concerns
to alter their customary business poll
cies. and cash methods of doing bust
ness continued in force at the chain
grocery stores and drug stores
Theaters did normal rainy day bust
ness yesterday, it was reported. and
restaurants. some of which adopted
credit policies, enjoyed customary
trade.
