Roosevelt Debt Envoy
Remains Mystery Man

PARIS, Jan. % G.N.SJ.-Wil,
liam C. Bullitt, one-time emissary
of President Wilson, who dis
cussed the war debt situation
with Premier Joseph PaulBon-
cour Thursday night as an a"ac,
credited representative" of Presi.
dent-elect Roosevelt, according to
the Foreign Office, was still a
mystery man today.
Efforts to locate him were
fruitless. The Foreign Office re-
fused any further details of the
Paul-Boncour interview, and there
was no. indication as to how the
overthrow of the Paul-Boncour
gvernment in Parliament early
today would affect Bullitt's mis-
sion here.

VETS FORESEE
CURB ON DRY
ENFORCERS
House Dry Foes JubiIant Over
Prospects As Showdown on
Fund Vote NearS

House vets were jubilant today
as a final showdown drew near
on whether wire-tapping, stool
pigeons, and bought liquor we're
finally to be denied to prohibi.
ton agents in making cases and
whether dry law funds will. be
cut sharply.
They succeeded in voting all
these changes into the Depart
ment of Justice supply bill, but
final roll call votes will be de-
manded when the four depart
ment appropriation bill is passed.
Record Vote Due
The votes by which the changes
were written into the bill, after
years of effort on the part Of
their sponsors, we're by tellerS
only, as roll calls are not per-
mitted when the House is con-
sidering a bill paragraph by
paragraph.
However, when the reading Of
the measure is completed, dry
leaders will be able to force a
record vote on each item.
The bill provides funds for the
Departments of State, Justice,
Commerce, and Labor for the
fiscal year beginning July l next.
The votes yesterday were
fairly close, and there was no as
Surance that any or all Of the
amendments adopted can survive
the acid test of record vote.
Prison Machinery
However, the two liquor votes
earlier in the session-resubmis-
sion of the Eighteenth Amend
ment and the bill to legalize beer
indicated sufficient numerical
strength in the ranks of the vets
to put oyer all of the amend
ments affecting prohibition.
One other separate vote on the
measure may be demanded-that
on prohibiting the Department of
Justice from purchasing or in
stalling machinery in the new
penitentiary at Lewisburg, Pa.
for making metal furniture. This
was adopted by a vote of more
than two to one.

Roosevelt Arranges Conference
For Tomorrow; Summons
Howe and TugWeII

WARM SPRINGS, Ga, Jan. %
INSD.-President-elect Roosevelt
today took the preliminary conver.
sations looking to the revision OF
the British debt into his own
hands.
By special invitation, Sir Ronald
Lindsay, the British ambassador.
was flying here for a conference
at the Little White House" pVe
liminary to departure for LONDON
Tuesday.
Professors Raymond Moley and
Rex Tugwell, the Roosevelt eco
nomic advisors, who have been
comforting with State and Treas.
ury officials in Washington, had
been ordered here also, and were
following sir Ronald by train.
To State Principles
It is Mr.. RooSevelt'S intention,
in a Sunday conference with the
Ambassador, to lay down the
general principles" upon which
he will be willing to meet the
British debt emiSsary who arrives
for formal negotiations after
March 4. It was not expected,
however, that the President-elect
would 60 into detail or define his
formula.
Tugwell is reported already en-
route South and Moley is ex'
pected Wednesday.
Sherley Here on Mergers
Meanwhile, one phase Of the
promised Roosevelt new deap
had been transferred back to
washington today.
That was the problem Of gov
ernmental reorganization an d
prospective savings that might
result in the Federal budget.
PreSident-elect Roosevelt was
being represented in the National
Capital by Swagar Sherley, vet
eran legislator during the Wilson
Administration. Sherley had been
requested, before leaving Warm
Springs, to coordinate all Of the
ideas on that subject that num-
ber of prominent Democrats had
been asked to prepare. His re-
port is expected by March 4.
All efforts to establish that
other emiSSarieS of the incoming
administration were making SINH
lar advance arrangements over In
ternational debt settlements, how.
ever, were unsuccessful.
It was denied that William C.
Bullitt'S movements among the
foreign ministries Of Europe had
anything to do with the Roose-
welt administration, and no COM
ment was forthcoming about the
respective calls of Moley and Tug
well on the State and Treasury
departments in Washington.
Connected With Campaign
Bullitt was connected with the
Roosevelt campaign and repre-
sented the Wilson administration
in 1919 on a mission to Russia.
Moley and Tugwell are members
of the So-called brain trust" that
guided the PreSident-elect on
economies issues while he was
stumping the country.
Sherley is said to have de-
clined appointment as director
of the budget. He suggested a
younger man was needed for the
job.

so far as debt discussion was con,
cerned but implied plainly that
no other subjects could be dis
cussed which might be expected
to come up a. the World Eco.
nomic Conference. And, in any
event, it was stated no agree.
ments could be reached in the
Washington discussions which
might affect other countries.
The cables have been busy ever
since with to and fro messages
trying to adjust this conflict OF
viewpoints.
The situation throws more light
on Sir Ronald'S conferences with
Senator Robinson, Democratic
leader Of the Senate, which
led him even to the floor of the
Senate itself. For this infraction
of the Senate rules. Senator
Robinson CRO of Indiana criti
cized the Arkansas Robinson yes
terday in another heated ex
change over the debts.
Sought Roosevelt Views
It is understood the ambassa
dor sought an elaboration from
Robinson of Mr.. RooseVelt's ideas
concerning the forthcoming con.
ference. Whether he got it OF
not is a matter of conjecture, for
there IS reason to believe that
Robinson is not as familiar with
the Rooseveltian views as perhaps
half a dozen other Democratic
Senators.

A resolution continuing the

expires June 80, will be passed
by the House Monday under sus,
pension Of rules, according to
plans made by Democratic lead
ers today. w
This method will prevent mem
bers from offering amendments
and avoid a controversy over
taxes.
The Ways and Means Commit
tee approved continuation of the
tax, expected to raise $137 ,000, 900

men for motorists and the oil in.
duStry. Doubt was expressed that
the Senate would act on the tax
this session.
Even if the House passes it
without amendment, the Senate
is expected to reopen the whole

Chide Democrats for Speedy
Abandonment of Billion
Dollar Economy

With dreams of billion-dollar
slash in Federal expenditures
abandoned, Senate Democrats to-
day were determined to cut $780,
100000 from the Hoover budget
estimates for the next fiscal year.
This $15O,OOO,0OO saving, if ef-
fected, would be in addition to
a $3.50 ,000, 900 slash recommended
by the Budget Bureau in COM
parison with appropriations for
the current fiscal year. Few po.
litical leaders have any hopes of
this reduction being accom-
plished.
Up Hill and Down Again
So far as the billion-dollar
slash is concerned, the Demo,
Gratis marched up the hill and
marched down again. They aban.
doned it without the formality of
q vote. a party caucus having ap-
proved a compromise plan for a
"survey" to determine just how
far Government economy can be
carried without impairing Federal
service. :
Senator Tydings CD of Mary
land, who proposed the billion
dollar slash, only to accept the
compromise, estimated additional
savings of from $100,000,000 to
$150,000,000 under the new plan.
He said from $35, 100000 to $780,
100000 of this sum would be
saved by new economies in the
Treasury-Postoffice appropriation
bill, now pending in the Senate.
This bill was Slashed to the
bone by the appropriation COM
mittees, carrying 1851, AL ,597
when reported to the Senate-a
savings of $194,806, ,236 as COM
pared with appropriations for the
two departments in the current
fiscal year.
G. o. P. Leaders Smile
The Republican leadership,
which has struggled for four
years with mounting Govern
ment costs, smiled at the Demo
cratic efforts to impose greater
economies. :
Republican kesmen de.
nounced the Democratic plan as
a sham, pretense, fraud and
joke" .--.---.
Senate Democrats, however.
were earnest in their desire to
effect greater economies than
those imposed by the House. This
widespread demand for balanced
budget. Some Democrats hope to
get a balanced budget through a
total slash of $600,000,000, to-
gether with the proposed legaliZa-
ton of beer, and without any
special increase of taxes.
The Republicans think other
wise and predict the Democrats
will have to sponsor tax increases
at the expected special session of
the new Congress after March 4.

Points To Three Ways Out
In rendering his resignation,
Won Schleicher pointed out to
Won Hindenburg the president
had only three avenues of ap-
proach to solve the present stu
alton.
One, he said, was the appoint
ment of Hitler as chancellor OF
a parliamentary cabinet; another
was the naming of Hitler at the
head of a minority cabinet COM
posed Of NaZis and NationaliSts;
the third was recourse to a nom
partisan dictatorial cabinet.
President Won Hindenburg de-
c1ined to consider the latter for
the present, but it was under
stood Won Papen might recon-
mend Hitler'S immediate ap-
pointment rather than undertake
the seemingly hopeless task Of
obtaining a parliamentary ma
jority for himself.
AS an indication Of the trou-
bled state of political affairs, it
was reported that Nazi and Ma
tionalist leaders had agreed to
ask President Won Hindenburg to
publish a decree prescribing the
Communist party and providing
for the arrest of Communist
members of the Reichstag.
