Pocho Winner
At Los Angeles

Bobby Pacho, former Ell Centre
boxing star, made quick work of
Kid Moro, reputedly dangerous
fighter, at the Olympic in Los An
geles last night, knocking out the
Filipino early in the second session.
Moro was supposed to have won
1879 straight bouts and was consid-
cred to be taking just a workout
in meeting Pacho. Bobby snapped
short right to his eye in the Sec
ond round and followed it up with
another which put Moro down for
the count, although sports writer's
generally agree that he "took a
dive.

CLASS HIT
COLD REPEAL

A managed currency-goal of
many economists, farm leaders,
and labor spokesman-was up for
Senate approval today as debate
began on the joint resolution
officially taking the United States
off the Gold Standard.
The resolution, overwhelmingly
passed by the House, bore the
Roosevelt administrations seal of
approval. It would cancel the
gold clause" in all public and
private obligations, providing for
their redemption in any legal
tender.
Senator Reed (RO of Pennsyl-
vania, ardent champion of the
gold standard, assailed the gold
clause" repeal as reputation OF
the nations plighed word.
Parting company with the Ad-
ministration, Senator Glass CD
of Virginia, former Secretary Of
the Treasury, joined in the attack
on this proposal.
Speedy action was urged by
Senator Robinson of Arkansas, the
Democratic leader, to facilitate re-
financing of Treasury obligations
now about due.

VET SLASH PUT
To ROOSEVELT

Admitting the House is in re-
volt against the veterans economy
act, Democratic House leaders to-
day decided to lay the question
before President Roosevelt.
The fight was transferred to
the House as it received the in
dependent offices bill passed by
the Senate, increasing veterans
expenditures by $170,0OO,0O0 and
limiting compensation and pen
sion cuts to- Is per cent.
Speaker Rainey announced that
the House leaders would seek the
views of the President on the
action of the Senate in revising
the veterans economy bill passed
early in the session.
Rainey indicated a belief that
the House would stand by the
President if he flatly opposed the
Senate action but that House
leaders would ask Mr.. Roosevelt
to sanction either the Senate
amendment or submit a COM
promise plan.
House leaders planned to send
the bill to conference, holding up
final action until the Presidents
views can be aScertained.

N CARL SCORES
FARM BOARD

Charges Of abuses Of it's $780,
100000 appropriation were leveled
against the Federal Farm Board
today in a report submitted to
the Senate by Comptroller Gen
eral McCarl.
The report followed an investi-
CATION into the relationship be-
tween the Farmers National
Grain Corporation, the Farm
Board and the Grain Stabiliza-
ton Corporation. The investiga-
ton had been asked by Senator
Norris (R.) of Nebraska.
McCarl alleged that large por-
tions of the Farm Boards funds
were shared by the Farmers Ma
tional Grain Corporation and
other member agencies for pur-
poses not sanctioned by the
board.
His report also set forth that
Farmers National Grain Corpor-
alton and the Grain Sterilization
Corporation entered into a con-
tract whereby the later was to
buy over 2,50O,000 bushels Of
wheat from the former at 80
cents a bushel. The report said
the wheat was not delivered and
that the Farmers Corporation
then rebought the wheat at a
lower figure to make a tidy
profit on the transaction.

flight, however, is to make the
first solo flight around the world.
He wore the flying helmet
which Dieudonne Coste had worn
on his Paris-New York flight
two years ago. He was attired
in the same khaki-colored wind
breaker and knickers he had on
last July when he and Bennett
Griffin got as far as the western
boundary of Russia on an at
tempted globe flight.
Mattern'S projected flight is
perhaps the most difficult ever
attempted. His route is by way
of Paris, Berlin, Moscow, Yakutsk.

Young, But Experienced
For weeks-just as Lindbergh
did-he has been testing his
plane and awaiting favorable
weather.
He retired at o'clock last
night at a Coney Island hotel
and was awakened at IL o'clock
when favorable weather reports
were brought to him.
Immediately afterward he fell
asleep again, leaving word to
awaken him at 4 a. m. A short
time later he was on the field,
watching mechanics tune up the
plane.
Mattern was born in Freeport,
Ill. His wife, with her family in
Seattle, plans to remain there
until he has finished his flight.
Although a relatively young
flier, he has been flying for nine
years. He has more than 1000
air hours to his credit. He is
both civilian and Army trained.
He learned to fly in the Western
College of Aeronautics of Cal

MORGANCOM|NG
BACK IN ROLE
Of K|B|TZER
Banker, Excused As Witness,
Will See Inquiry's Close
From the SidelineS

J. Pierpont Morgan, excused
yesterday as a witness in the
Senate inquiry into his firm, will
return Monday as spectator.
For hours Morgan submitted to
a barrage of inquiries at the
hands of Ferdinand Pecora. But
he will be sitting on the side
lines when Pecora starts a two
day wind-up of the Morgan bank
ing probe on Monday, he told An
ternational News Service.
To Sit With Partners
The great banker will sit with
his partners and associates as he
did when under subpoena. Tech
nically, however, he will be just
one of the proletariat who daily
packed the hearing room in which
the investigation was underway.
He was asked:
"Aren't you glad to get away?"s
He replied, grinning:
ooh, yes, I'm glad to be ex-
cuSed as a witness. But I'll be
back. There are others to
testify, and 1 think I'd like to
see it through"
Morgan has become conscious
of and grown accustomed to the
tremendous interest he holds for
the spectators at the hearing.
1t might be fair bet that he
likes it. At any rate ne has
softened in his attitude toward
the ever-curious press since he
first came to the Capital two
weeks ago.
For instance, he looked pleased
as child when a reporter noticed
and asked about the big green
bloodstone watch charm that dan
giles from gold chain across his
bulky paunch.
Again, he intervened when
Chairman Fletcher of the COM
mittee announced to photog.
raphers that no more pictures
were to be taken of the MorganS
during the course of the hearing.
Likes North Carolina
Another time a North Carolin
ian stopped the banker as he left
the hearing room for the day
saying he was from the TarheeI
State and wished to shake Nor.
gan's hand. Morgan shook hands,
saying:
Thank you. I've got a place
down in your State that 1 love
very dearly"
On still another occasion an
elderly woman, a veteran com
mittee listener-in, stopped Nor
gan. She said:
II think you're grand"
Morgan turned aside from the
group with which he was walking
He said:
"Thank you very much.
That's very nice of you to say
that, and 1 appreciate it,"

RECOVERY BILL
IS REWRITTEN
IN SENATE
Finance Committee Revolts
Against Administration
Public Works Plan

Revolving against the Roose-
velt Administration, the Senate
Finance Committee today re-
wrote the ambitious industrial re-
covery and $4,000, 100000 public
works bill to meet the wishes of
bipartisan coalition.
By a vote of 10 to Z, it threw
out the oil-control amendment
urged by Secretary of the In
terror Ickes and approved by
the President.
Then it buried the Capper-
Marland oil amendment, II to l.
Business Licensing Vetoed
Heeding the protests of the
National Manufacturers Associ-
alton and the big industrialistS,
it eliminated on a 12-to-7 vote
the misunderstanding provisions
described by Senator Pat Harri-
son ID. )of Mississippi, the COM
mittee chairman, as "the real
bludgeon and the only effective
weapon to enforce the bill"
An amendment offered by Sem
ator Reed (RD of Pennsylvania,
giving the President power to
declare embargoes against for
eign goods as a means OF protect
ing the domestic market, was ap-
proved, 10 to 8.
In a surprise move to limit
executive authority under the
measure, the committee substi-
tuted a board of three members
for the public works administra-
tor sought by the President.
And as q further curb upon
the White House, it provided that
the new board, together with all
employees receiving more than
$4,000 annually in salary, should
be subject to confirmation by
the Senate.
Capital Levy Debated
With these changes made, it
took up consideration of an $780,
100000 capital levy proposed by
Harrison as part of a new pro-
gram to avoid the income tax in
creases voted by the House.
The capital levy would be plas-
tered upon all capital stocks at
the rate of one-tenth of l per
cent of their value. Harrison pro-
posed. in addition, a dividend
tax. collected at the source, to
yield $7O,0OO,0O0; a one-half cent
increase in the Federal gasoline
tax, in lieu of the three-fourths
cent increase imposed by the
House; provisions to tighten the
income tax law against private
bankers by removing some of
their exemptions; and an amend
ment to deny individuals the
right of deductions for partner
ship losses.

Carries Luck Coin
A $40 gold piece. minted in 1904,
the year of Mattern's birth, which
accompanied him on his at
tempted world flight last year,
rode with him again today. The
coin was presented to him by
Mrs. H. H. Fish, of Scarsdale, N.
Y, who came to the field this
morning to see the take-off.
Also slowed away in the cockpit
of the plane were a hunting
knife, some fishing tackle, razor,
several flashlights, and a package
of salt.
From Berlin, Mattern plans
to hop to Moscow, and then on
to Yakutski, in the heart of
Siberia. From there he will at
tempt a nonstop leg of the
flight to Edmonton, Canada, the
longest stretch OF his proposed
route. From Edmonton, his
course will take him to Chicago,
and thence back to Bennett Field.
Tentative Stops
Tentative stops at Nome and
Fairbanks, Alaska, were included
in Mattern's itinerary, but with
good luck he hopes to skip both.
Mattern's plane, powered with
a 600 horsepower Wasp motor,
has a top speed of 200 miles per
hour and a cruising speed of $50
miles per hour. It was not
equipped with radio. To add to
its stability, the rudder was en-
larged and the front landing gear
shortened.
