BLIND SELLERS
WIN FIGHT

Blind persons selling pencils
and newspapers will be permitted
to dispense their wares in Fed
eral buildings, contrary to the
long-standing strict rule that
peddlers could not make sales in
Government structures.
Societies interested in the blind
appealed to President Roosevelt in
behalf of the sightless peddlers
and secured permission for them
to gain entrance to, Federal
buildings.
1t was pointed out that blind
persons who were permitted to
sell papers outside Federal build
ings should be allowed to find
shelter in the structures and
attempt to make sales in the cor
ridorS. This would not permit
rent-free neWsstands, however.

 Wheat rose nearly 2 cents for the day and other grains were cor- respondingly higher. Cotton and other commodities joined the ad- vance. The gold value of the dol lar sank below 59 cents for the then rallied sharply without inter- first time since Civil war days and fering with the rise in stocks.

INSURANCE FRAUD
 PLOT IS ALLEGED
Plan to Exhume Body of Man Involved in Skip
 Accident

Boston, No. 16-UP) ).-Authori- ties investigating what they be- lieved was an insurance fraud plot that ended in murder planned to- day to exhume John J. Hinckley's body from a grave in Coldbrook cemetery at Whitman.
 Hinckley. 52-year-old odd-jobs man who lived at Holliston, was buried in Potter's field last July after he had died as the nameless victim of what appeared to be a hit-run accident on a lonely road in East Saugus, 90 miles from his home. Subsequently he was identi- fled by q sister and re-buried at Whitman.
 Payment of approximately &C., 800 on seven insurance policies on Hinckley's life was withheld by the insurance company today pending further investigation. Six of the seven policies named Hinckley' E estate as beneficiary, but Jacob Shore, 53, Holliston trucliman who employed Hinckley, had obtained an assignment of the policies to him, according to police. A Hollis ton woman was beheficiary of the seventh policy.
 Elimination was ordered by As sistant District Attorney Charles F. Green of Essex county, in which the death occurred, after permis- sion had been obtained from Dis trict Attorney Edmund R. Dewing of Norfolk county, in which the cemetery is located.

ton and strict laboratory control. it will turn out whiskey in the same way as the first plant built in Peoria in 184S. :.
 The reasons for the revival of the distilling industry in Peoria are the same as first brought its development here.
 Most important is the supply of cold artesian water. The cold water supply, used to condense and cool alcohol in the distilling pro- cess, enables the stills to run 12 months a year without high cost artificial cooling.
 Second is the location of Peoria in. the center of the corn belt. Grain can be purchased about one cent a bushel cheaper in Peoria than in other principal markets. Coal is available at $1 a ton and the. Illinois waterway provides cheap transportation.
 The principal product of all the new distilleries will be whiskey, but gin and alcoholic cordials will also be turned out.
 < The procedure employed by the distillery in making gin is a far cry from the familiar abth-tub gin methods. The spirits are yapor- ized, mixed with distilled water in the proper percentage. They then pass through drum containing a

WOOL MARKET

Boston, Nov 16-(UP-Wool was selling more freely in the Boston market to-day, fine and medium territory wools being most active. Top-makers were buying wools, and leading manufacturers were watching the market closely.
 Best territory fine staple wools were sold at as much as 85 cents a pound for clean and graded va rieties, a cent above the previous high. More average fine territory clean wools such as state of Mex ico varieties sold at 80 cents in original bags. Half blood territory wool was quoted at 82-S3 cents: three-eight, 76-7S; quarterblood, 70-72. Ohio delaine fine combing wools were selling slow, but were almost universally held for at least one-cent advances over previous prices, ranging now from 33-35 cents a pound in the grease. Half blood was quoted at 35-36; three eighth, 41-43; and quarter-blood. 40-41.
 The U. s. agriculture department said: Improvement in demand for wool, noted earlier in the week. is being fully maintained. Greasy combing 5Ss. eos and finer domes- tic wools have been sold in fair quantities by a number of houses. Fine delaine wools have been sold at 32-34 cents in the grease, de- pending, upon shrinkage. Strictly combing 5Ss, eos, F blood, Ohio and similar fieeces have realized 34-35 cents in the grease for ave- rage lines and 36 cents for good wools.

 He said changed conditions made advisable a revision of that act, and enthusiastically praised the purpose of those who would bring the federal food and drug laws into accord with those changed conditions and make easier the regulation and prosecu- tion of offenders.
 But he contended that mot in the hey-day of unenforcable pre- hibition was there a greater oppor- tunity for corruption" than would be created by provisions of the Tugwell bill.
 Dr Goudiss denounced the pro- posals of the bill which would "grant such sweeping and unde- fined authority to government department"
 Passage of the bill, he asserted, would "unconstitutionally harrass manufacturers of products totalling an annual value of $17,O00, 100000 and place in jeopardy the jobs of nearly 100000 workers in the food and drug industry.

 When short-term debt, in the form of certificates of indebtedness and treasury bills, cannot be met from current receipts, it is com monly funded by conversion into bonds. In the present state of the market, however, the treasury has been obliged to rely on treasury notes with duration intermediate between htat of bonds and that of curren issues of certificates of in- debtedness and treasury bills. The certificates are issued for terms of one year or less. Those outstanding June 30, 1883, bore interest at rates varying from %96 to4 14 %. Treasury bills, which bear no inter- est, are issued for 90 days and are sold in the market on discount basis. The average sales price of the various issues oustanding June 30, 1883, indicated approximate yields on a bank-discount basis that varied from O.24%6 to 1851 %.

'LINDBERCHS LAND

Discusses South Atlantic Crossing = May Fly
 to Azores

Lisbon, Nov 16.-(UP)-Colonel and Mrs Charles A. Lindbergh rested to-day at the American le- gation, after a series of difficult flights in which they were forced twice to land at unscheduled halts by fog and once had to turn back from their goal.
 Lindbergh, in consultation with experts of the National Air Coun- ell, considered the feasibility of a southern Atlantic air route be- tween Lisbon and the United States via the Azores Islands.
 He was considering also the de- sirability of a flight with Mrs to the Azores, nearly 800 miles out from Lisbon. He was understood to have made no de- cision. Weather conditions were a prime factor in his consideration.
 Whether he flew to the Azores, Lindbergh planned to crate his seaplane and sail home, probably from Spanish or Portuguese port. If he made the flight to the Azores he was expected to return here.

New York, Nov 16- The gross public debt of the United States government increased $6.3 billion in the last fiscal years to a total of $22.5 billion, more than cancell- ing a reducing of $6. billion ef- fected in the preceding ' years, ac- cording to an analysis of "The Fed eral Public Debt, United States, 1923-1933," issued today by the Na- tionaI Industrial Conference Board.
 In the period 1923 to 193O gov ernment receipts, after payment of ordinary expenditures, including the statutory requirements of the sinking fund, yielded large sur- pluses, which were used for the re- demption of United States bonds. In those years, the total debt was reduced from $22.3 billion to $16.2 billion. In addition, eX- -tensive refunding operations el- fected a large reduction in annual interest charges. o
 While the fiscal year Of lyoV' ended with a small surpluS m creased expenses in the 1olloWlng year combined with a drop m re- venues produced 8 deficlt. since then deficits in current accounts caused by declining tax recelpts and increasing emergency expendl- lures, due to the business depres- sion. have been a continuing feat ure of federal finances, resulting in an increase in the public debt to a total of $22.5 billion at the close of the last fiscal year, June 30, 1853
 A parked change in the compon-- ent items of the government dept has taken place in the last years. In the total debt of June 30, 1850, bonds formed 74.8%, while in the larger debt of June 30, 1893, their proportion was 63.-%. Outstanding bonds increased only slightly after 1880, but other forms of debt in- creased to June 30, 1883, by $4,241 million, bringing their aggregate to slightly over twice that of 3 years ago.
 The inability of the government in the depression years to float bond issues on favorable terms has produced an extraordinary activity in the treasury's fiscal transac- tions. Issues of the various forms of debt have been frequent, pri- marily to meet the maturities of previous issues, and also to furnish cash for current expenses. In this continuing process of issue and re- demption the tendency has been to- ward an increase in treasury notes. These are short-term obligations with maturities in from 2 to 5

 THOUGHT EATEN

Paris, Nov 16-(UP)-Two French aviators who disappeared June 30, while flying over the forests of Portuguese Guinea, were slaughtered and eaten by Canibals of the Cached river region, the Petit Journal correspondent at Dakar, Africa reported today.
 The pilot was named Gate and the wireless operator was named Constan- Bree.
 Gates wife, the correspondent said accompanied a Portuguese detachment headed by Captain Rouxel to search for the aviators in the wilderness.
 They learned from natives, ac- cording to the dispatch, that the aviators were alive when they crashed near the Cached river. and were captured by a tribe of na- tives.
 The natives killed the aviators, offered their blood as a sacrifice to their gods, and ate the bodies.

PRESIDENT CAN'T
 TOUCH HOARDERS
Federal Judge OverthrOws Roosevelt Mandate in,
 Decision

:, New York, Nov 16-(UP)- President Roosevelt's executive order directing hoarders to turn over gold to federal reserve banks was declared invalid today in a fed eral court decision which upheld the greater part of the adn1inistra- tion's anti-hoarding campaign. % Federal Judge John M. Woolsey ruled that the presidential order of Aug 28, constituted the illegal usurpation of power specifically delegated to the secretary of the treasury by congress on March g.. 'a9 He upheld, however, the power of the government to force the re- valuation of hoarded gold and di- rect it's surrender.
 He also ruled that congress had the power to direct the surrender of gold but held that this power had been specifically delegated to the secretary of treasury and not to the president.
 U. S. Attorney George z. Medal lie, commenting on the decision, stressed the technical nature of the reason for dismissing part of the indictment and indicated that he regarded the decision as far more of a victory than a defeat.
