he had been beaten by Nazi storm

Interviewed in a Berlin hospital

has owned a business house in
Leipzig since 1881. He was very
weak and doctors said his condi-
tion is serious. He said:

j. s. To CURB
SPECULATIVE
MARKETS
President Fears Injury to His
Recovery Plan; May In
woke License Clause
BY International News Service

Stern represslve measures
were planned today by the
Administration to halt the
speculative mania in COM
modities and securities.
Immediate and iron handed
Federal control of the commodity
exchanges through Federal licen-
sing was among the possibilities.
Influential advisers to President
Roosevelt urged that the licensing
provision be extended to include
the New York Stock Exchange.
Fears for Recovery Plans
The President viewed with cold
disfavor the wild gyrations of
the Chicago pit and the New
York "Big Board" where tre-
mendous Fleeing Of the lambs
has Just occurred.
Fearful that the abnormal see
saving Of these two markets
night wreck his gigantic recovery
program, he personally directed
the initial move against Specula-
tive excesSeS.
This move OF itself was not
spectacular. It consisted merely
of an order by Secretary of Ag-
riculture Wallace requiring the
Chicago Board of Trade and other
commodity exchanges to report
daily all short or long accounts
exceeding 100000 bushels in any
grain future.
At the same time, however, the
President directed Wallace to
study all feasible methods of con-
trolling the commodity exchanges
and asked other Administration
aides to keep a close check on
stock market performances.
Licensing Is Contemplated
Wallace revealed one method
already being considered is to
license all commodity exchange
brokers and dealers. He said:
1--WE have been told this is
possible under the agricultural
adjustment act"
In a letter to the Chicago Board
of Trade, Wallace suggested a
limit be placed on the amount of
gain or loss applying to wheat in
any one days trading. Of it's own
initiative, the board placed a S.
cent limit on rye. A restriction
on gains or losses has been ap-
piled to cotton for several years.
AS proof that wheat was sky,
rocketed by purely speculative
methods, Wallace pointed ou t
that the domestic price was hiked
nearly 80 cents above the world
price.

CHICAGO, July 81 (I.N.S.).
Flatly contradicting the an
nouncement Of Miss Ruth
Googins' uncle, Elliott Roose-
welt, 22-year-old son of the
President, denied today that he
would be married tomorrow.
The Texas society girls uncle,
George c. Swiler, had said the

"these reports of my marriage are
somewhat exaggerated"

Miss GooginS has gone to the
home of her relatives in Burling-
ton, merely to seek refuge from
the spotlight Of publicity focused
on her because of her meetings
with Roosevelt here.
Bored at the necessity Of re-
peatedly denying that he and
Miss Googins would be wed,
young Roosevelt outlined his
plans for today and tomorrow to
reporters.
However, a close friend of Miss
Googins here declared that all
the denials of both Elliott and
Miss Googins were just so much
smoke" and that arrangements
have been completed for simple
ceremony at the Burlington home
at 6 p. m. tomorrow.
This friend also said Elliott and
his bride-to-be have decided to
live in Fort Worth, Tex.
Miss GooginS, it was said, asked
Elliott to refrain from announc-
ing their engagement. which Ell
lott consented to do on her
promise that they would be mar
ried this week.
Plane Trip Planned
Although young Roosevelt so
stoutly denied the marriage plans
as he was packing up to leave
the city, it was learned that he
had made reservations with the
United Air Lines for flight to
the West Coast Sunday. Reserva-
tions were made for himself,
