BY the Associated Press.
PALO ALTO, Calf, March 24-For-
mer President Herbert Hoover today
asked police to disregard as far as pos
sible the visit to his home Wednesday
of a man with loaded revolver. but
authorities continued surveillance of
the man, William Campogiani, SIS, for
mer wrestler.
Campogiani, according to the guard
who stopped him before he entered the
Hoover property, offered to check the
gun with him during his proposed visit
with the former Executive. and ran
away while the guard was telephoning
for police.
Officers Keep Weapon.
The ex-President's visitor no longer
has the revolver. Authorities took it
away from him yesterday after tracing
him to his Burlingame home. He has
lived in the community many years,
doing odd jobs and jan:tor work.
The visit to the Hoover home, he ex-
planned, was to inquire whether the
former Executive had received all the
things Campogiani says he bought for
him while he was in Washington. and
to ask for a job with the Secret
Service.
He carried the revolver, he declared,
bscause he had $50 with him and was
afraid Of robbers.
Police said they were satisfied Cam
pogiani, who Is SIS years old and has a
reputation as a neighborhood character,
meant no harm. He was carrying the
weapon, they said he told them, as a
protection against robbers.
For years I've been giving people
money with which to purchase pres
ents for Mr.. Hoover when he was
President" they said Campogiani told
them. IT wanted to see him and ask
If he got the wine. fruits, vegetables
and other delicacies I ordered sent him.
And I was going to suggest he give me
job in the Secret Service. I'm big,

SENT TO PRESIDENT.
Non-Member Banks Given
Right to Borrow From
Federal Reserve.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
President Roosevelt's signature was
all that was needed today to make law a
bill giving State non-member banks the
right to borrow from Federal Reserve
Banks during the banking emergency.
Congressional action was completed
yesterday, and Vice President Garner
and Speaker Rainey were authorized to
sign the measure while Congress is in
recess so that Mr.. Roosevelt may act
before Monday.
The non-members must comply with
the same conditions as member banks.
They must post adequate security, be
certified by State banking officials as
sound, maintain reserves the same as
member banks and undergo thor
ough examination by the Reserve banks
Glass Sounds Warning.
Securities given for loans would be
eligible for new currency issues by the
Reserve banks.
The bill was passed by the Senate
yesterday after day of debate, marked
by a warning from Senator Glass, DEM
ocrat, of Virginia that to open the
Reserve system funds to non-members
without the same restrictions required
of member banks would hasten the
'wreckage" Of unsound institutions.
Less than half an hour after passage
by the Senate the House. which had
been in recess waiting for the Senate
to act, concurred in amendments.
Senator Adams, Democrat. Colorado.
during the Senate debate tried to strike
out the thorough examination" re-
quirement, but was unsuccessful.
This condition, he said, imposed
Limitation so heavy that rediscounts to
non-member banks will be practically
impossible"
Glass. along with half dozen other
Democratic and Republican Senators,
attacked the Adams proposal.
Steagall Defends Bill.
Glass said the examination" re-
quirement was written into the bill by
President Roosevelt himself Under the
Adams proposal, he argued, thousands
of insecure banks might avail them
selves of the facilities of the Federal
Reserve banking system, and having SO
done it might result in their wreckage
sooner perhaps than otherwise they
would be wrecked"
Although Adams and others claimed
few banks would benefit under the bill
because of the length of time required
for examinations, Chairman Steagan of
the House Banking Committee told the
House it would afford relief to thou
sands of State banks now under a

Hellum walked over to the professor

Its my belief, sir, that she shot her
husband. There certainly wasn't any
one around when I ran up!"
Fordney shook his head in disagree
ment. II don't think she did, son."
Turning to Kelley he remarked, You

informed on what is going on in this
community should not only subscribe
to this stock issue in their individual
capacity but likewise do so collectively. "
Mr.. Bowles said subscriptions to stock

FARM Relief PLAN
CRITICIZED BY REED
Former Missouri Senator Also Hits
Threat to Punish Gold
Hoarders. o.

By the Associated Press.
ST. LOUIS, March 24-James A.
Reed, former United States Senator
from Missouri yesterday criticized
President Roosevelt's farm relief pro-
posal and the threat to punish gold
hoarders
Reed said it was the first time he
has had" to criticize the new Presi-
dent, and expressed regret at the
necessity"
Closing of all the banks may have
been justified, Reed Said, but it was a
violent and unprecedented action.
But when it came to threatening
people with fine and imprisonment for
keeping their own money in their own
pockets" he added, "it occurred to me
the Constitution had about been
stretched to the breaking point"
Reed predicted the farm relief plan
would have a detrimental effect on all
lines of business.
1T is unsound in economics and vio-
lative of the Constitution of the United
States" he said, and added that the
proposed bill would destroy the free
grain market of the United States,
which IS absolutely essential to decent
prices" He said the present farm bill
IS "even worse" than the one creating
the Farm Board.
