MERGER Of 3 UNITS

In connection with reports published
yesterday that the Coast Guard might
be merged with the Navy, 1t was de-
clared today that President Roosevelt
was considering a sweeping reorganiza-
ton order under which the Navy would
take over the Coast Guard, Lighthouse
Service and Coast and Geodetic Survey.

head and the Coast Guard Academy
at New London, Conn, would likely be
made postgraduate school of the
Navy, with the regular Coast Guard
officers trained at the Naval Academy
as are Marine officers. At present the
Naval Academy is crowded and the New
London acquisition would afford an
agreeable expansion from this point of
view. Under present law only half of
the Naval Academy graduates can be
commissioned, but, with the Coast
Guard taken on, relaxation of this
is looked for.
Study for 60 Days.
The merger order is anticipated
shortly and the Navy expects to have
go days in which to study it, SO that it
may be put into effect.
Naval authorities consider the morale
and seamanship abilities of the Coast
Guard of a high standing, but point
out that they are not trained in fire
control and gunnery generally, as are
naval officers.
The Navy SHES at the law enforce
ment aspect of the Coast Guard, fearing
that it will be unpopular, in being tied
up with a police organization, for the
Coast Guard enforces the laws on
smuggling and evading customs duties
and recently was charged with the en-
forcement Of prohibition at sea. Some
years ago the Attorney General ruled
that the Navy could not be utilized in
the enforcement of prohibition.

LIQUOR TAX URGED
To MAINTAIN CREDIT
Ritchie Opening Special Ses.
sion Cites $1,8OO,OOO De-
cline in State Revenue.
BY GEORGE PORTER.
Stan Correspondent of The Star.


ANNAPOLIS, Md, November 23.-Re-
vealing that the revenues of the State
of Maryland have decreased about ST.
100000 in the past year. Gov. Ritchie
today asked the General Assembly at
the opening Of its extraordinary session
to dedicate the proceeds of the proposed
State excise tax on liquors to the State
treasury 'in order to assure beyond any
question. the past and present high
credit standing of the State" He also
recommended that the entire State tax
be used for debt service.
Delivering his message before a joint
session Of the House and Senate shortly
after noon. the Governor further pro-
posed several changes in the State liquor
control plan ne announced last week,
called upon the lawmakers to strengthen
the States anti-lynching law and to en-
act measures permitting counties and
cities to take advantage of Federal
grants and loans authorized by the ma
tional recovery act.
The principal change in the Cover
wines with beer instead of with liquor.
"Subject to Revision
Even as now submitted. however"
the Governor said, my plan and its
details are intended to be subject to
thorough scrutiny and consideration at
your hands, and to revision where that
seems desirable.
II recognize fully that any control
plan to be effective must conform to
the wants and must receive the sane
ton of the people In the political unit
t" which it applies.
This is vital, and such merit as the
plan here recommended may have lies
largely in the fact that it does away
with the innumerable, diverse and
often confusing local laws which have
hitherto always been resorted to on this
subject, and at the same time enables
each political unit to have whatever
class or classes of license its people
want. under administrative and regu-
form with respect to the particular
class or classes of license any political
units sees fit to adopt"
A change in the license classification
by the Governor provide
for a new type of license for beer and
light wines, costing $40 a year more
than licenses for the sale of beer alone.
Describing State excise tax of 81 10
a gallon, for liquors and fortified"
wines, the same as the existing Federal
tax, as fair" Gov. Ritchie said the
liquor bill would allot
the revenues from this tax to the State
treasury.
This will be done, he said, because
the retail license fees are to 60 entirely
to the counties and Baltimore City, and
because the tremendous decrease in the
States assessable basis aAd contribu-
tions from the State treasury made by
the last Legislature for relief in Balti-

FEDERAL RESERVE
TO PROBE MARKET
Short Selling of Government
Paper Begins in New
York District.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press
NEW YORK, November 23.-The
New York Federal Reserve Bank has
begun a close examination of opera
tions in United States Government
securities to determine how much, if
any, of the recent selling has come from
spectators seeking profits or the short
side. it was learned today.
A QUESTIONABLE has been sent to all
member banks of the district requesting
a detailed account of the holdings of
Governments on each day since the
decline began late last month. Data
as to transactions that would lead to
disclosure of liquidation or short selling
from any source are required by the
QUESTIONABLE.
The Reserve Banks decision to in
quire into the character of selling in
United States Governments was due,
it was said in banking circles, to the
large increase IN the volume OF dealings
during the past three weeks, and to
suggestions in some quarters that the
weakness of the bonds might have beer
due in some measure to bear" selling.
"It was understood the reserve au-
thorities did not believe the results Of
the QUESTIONABLE would turn up evil
dence of any widespread short selling.
On the contrary, informed banking
souces were of the opinion that the re-
cent decline in prices would be shown
to have resulted from long" selling or
liquidation operations with speculative
short dealings a negligible factor
Banking interests also asserted that
the Reserve Banks action should not
be interpreted as radical inquisitorial
STEP The Reserve authorities. it was
pointed out, as matter of usual policy
keep in close touch with the markets
for United States Government securities.
Reports that the bank has requested
dealers to supply complete information
respecting their own holdings and
amounts loaned to complete deliveries
were said to be erroneous.
Such dealers, it was said, voluntarily
disclose the trend of their operations to

Four NMU Miners
Win Struggle for
Reinstatement
(By a Mine Worker Correspondent

(By Mine Worker Correspondent
BENTLEYVILLE, pat the On
tario Mine near Bentleyville, Pa,
four miners were told by the Super
intendent of the mine that they
could work no more at his mine un-
til they would join the UMWA, but
the local Chairman, John Sokol, with
instructions from the international
Organizer, Bozo Damich, also of the
UMWA, refused to accept these four
men into the UMWA, and the reason
they gave was that they were men,
bers of the NMU.
First they went to the District Of
flee of the UMWA and demanded an
explanation and also told the Off
Gals of the District that if they don't
get their jobs back they will go back
to the miners and tell the miners
what the UMWA in reality is. They
also sent telegram to General john
son and one to the Secretary of the
NMU, who was at Washington as a
delegate to the code hearing, telling
about this discrimination.
Later they called the miners to
meeting at the Union Hall. They
explained their case and the miners
made motion that the men we're
to be put back to work and that the
UMWA Organizer was to pay the
men for the one day they lost. This
motion was carried almost unani-
mously, with the only objection of
the Local Chairman, John Sokol,
Just to show what he is I will only
mention one of more things he has
done. A few years back, under the
UMWA every widow would receive
$3.50 from the union for burial ex-
pense. This same John Sokol would
and did keep the money for himself
after the union sent the check to
him to forward to the widow and
children. He was found guilty and
expelled from the UMWA for SO
years, yet today he is again Chair

Children in the Soviet Union
To All Pioneers Of America:

To All Pioneers of America:
We Pioneers from America are now
spending our vacation in the Pioneer
Camp of the Soviet Union. We are
now having one hour brigade work,
which we decided to use in writing
a letter to our comrades of America.
There are two seasons of camp
here. The first is over and this is
the second. There are over IT'S Pho
neers in this camp. We are divided
into four large groups called Otrads.
A Komsomol (YCL) takes charge of
each Otrad. Each Otrad is divided
into four zvenos or brigades. We
have number of circles, such as
handwork for the girls and aireo for
the boys; besides there are dramatic,
literary, library, young natural scien-
lists, political, and many others.
Our camp is situated among the
most beautiful scenery. On one side
we have rolling planes with large
hill on which we have big camp fires,
dancing, singing, and games. On the
other side are pine trees. Behind
the pine trees is river in which we
swim and sail. We have swimming
and physical culture every day. Dur
ing the day we hike or go berry
picking. When we come back we are
very hungry, but we are sure to find
an appetizing meal waiting for us.
After dinner we have rest hour
or dead" hour. We have to lie down
and rest for an hour and half be-
fore we go swimming. We are al
ways under the doctors care.
