 Members will be given oppor- tunity to say what they want, as often as they wish, while the sup ply bills are up for consideration. The familiar practice in the house of what Jack Garner used to de- scribe as letting off steam" will be permitted freely.
 Once the appropriation measures are out of the way, the Democratic leaders will be able to proceed more freely. It is entirely possible with the tremendous majority they enjoy, that they may maneuver the session to an early close.

SEEKERS AFTER PATRONAGE ARE
 VERY ANXIOUS
Postmaster General Far= ley Is Trying to Pacify the Group, But Hasn't Done It Yet
BY WILLIAM F. KERRY United Press Staff Correspondent

Washington, May 12-U.P) - Congressional grumbling over fail ure of the administration to speed distribution of 150,00O federal jobs swelled to-day to a chorus of pro- test.
 Postmaster-Gener James A.. Farley, sought to reassure congress men with a statement that all that was needed was "patience' but the effective club or patronage remain ed suspended over the heads of those inclined to vote against ad- ministration measures.
 Farley, dispenser-in-i -inchlef of appointments, addressed mass meeting of more than 300 demo- cratic house members summoned by harassed leadership which had grown tired of the clamor of a job-seeking rank and file.
 Smiling and serene, the postmas. ter general said it was "big job" and the interests of the party de- manded that positions be filled slowly and with the best available. material. After the meeting Farley expressed pleasure with the man. ner in which his explanation had been received.
 But members who attended to find out exactly when they coulu expect to obtain the postmaster ship appointment for -Four Cor ners' went away mumbling. Some of the expressions used were not polite.
 The administration had no inten- ton of immediately surrendering it's most potent weapon over con gress. The presidents emergency program has yet to be completed.
 Federal jobs are virtually essen- tial to the local organization or congressman or senator. They mean defeat or reelection In many cases. They also spell votes in Washington for party measures Jobs, or rather their non-distribu- ton, coupled with undoubted pop ular support for the new admins tration, are credited by many con- gressional leaders with explaining the political miracles of the pres ent session.
 Reports, have gained widespread circulation at the capitol that every roll call on a major bill finds it's way into carefully kept indexes. Judgment day. many members are firmly convinced. will come when the real distribution of appoint ments begins.

 Bonds to be sold are included as assets of the commercial and sav- ings department and are for the most part Canedian Province bons. In the savings department. the bonds to be sold are appraised at $23,990. The present market value is 27,700. In the savings department the bonds are ap- praised at $44,110. The present market value is $53,20O.
 By selling the bonds the receiver will realize $12,800 more than the appraisal figure set by official court appraisers. The stocks pro- posed for sale total $92,975 at the present market value, which is also in excess of the appraised value.

For the time being. at least, Ruth

DAVIS CUP LINEUP
IS BEST IN DECADE
Ito Will Get Baptism of Heavy
Fire-Team Going to
Europe Early.

By the Associated Press.
TOKIO, February 2.-Japan is
| sending to the 1888 Davis
i Cup campaigns in Europe
her strongest team in many
years, with hopes renewed of
reaching at least the final round
in the European zone.
These hopes are based on the conf
dence that this year she has two first
flight tennis stars, her first such pair,
the experts say, since the brilliant
Zenzo Shinizu and the imperturbable
Ichiya Kumagai blazed across the ten
mis- armament in 1921 and reached the
challenge round against Bill Tilden
and Bill Johnston.
THEY are Jiro Sato, ace Of the 1892
L Davis Cup squad. semi-finalist at
Wimbledon and conqueror of Ellsworth
Vines in two late season tournaments
in California: and young Ryosuke
Nunoi of Kobe, who downed Sato on
the latter's return from these triumphs,
in the finals of the national champion
ships here last November.
Two others chosen for the 1888 squad
are Ryuki Mkt, resident of London and
veteran internationalist. who will be
captain: and 21-year-old Eikichi Ito,
like Nunoi student in Kobe Com
mercial College and for three years
Nunoi's doubles partner.
In sthe 1882 rankings of the Japan
Lawn Tennis Association, Nunoi, the
champion, and Ito were ranked No. l
and No. 2, respectively Sato and Mkt
were not ranked, since the former
played in only one home tournament,
the championships, and the latter re-
manned abroad all year.
A1UNOI and Sato will be the singles
IN players in all Davis Cup ties. Mkt
probably will be a non-playing
captain, while Ito is expected to get his
baptism of international fire in the
doubles, paired with either Nunoi or
Sato
AS in the past three years Nippon
tennis authorities have elected to send
their 1888 team to play in the European
zone. partly because of the wider eX-
perience this gives the young players
and partly because the chances of
rising to the interZone or challenge
round are considered brighter against
European competition than against the
increasing power Of the young Ameri-
can stars, notably Ellsworth Vines, jr.,

EOR several years the japanese have
i failed to progress beyond the Euro
pean semi finals. usually finding an
unexpected obstacle in Italy. This year
they are confident Nunoi and Sato can
clear that hurdle.

sail for Marseilles by the long Suez
route late in February. arriving on the
Riviera in time to compete in a few
warming-up tournaments before the
Davis Cup struggle opens
