MOSCOW, June 9.-Jimmie Mattern

after he had arrived there from Belovo

he still has a chance to establish a

He was away again for an unreported

Reports to Moscow were delayed by
slow communication facilities so it was

The Texan had apparently recovered
from the nausea which had forced him
to land, almost unconscious, at Belovo
when he departed from that miners
settlement, waving his thanks to the
hospitable Soviet authorities and peo-

Everything was ready for him on
his arrival in Krasnoyarsk, and it was
believed that his early getaway was
made possible by the presence at the
airport of an interpreter and the essen

At Krasnoyarsk, 185 miles from Be-

of which was broken during the land

which caused his intense sickness, also

WALTER JOHNSON
TO MANAGE INDIANS
big Train to Succeed Roger
Peckinpaugh After Tribes
Bad Showing.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CLEVELAND, June 9-Walter John
son, "The Big Train of base ball for
many years, was named manager of the
Cleveland Indians today.
Johnson will succeed Roger Peckin-
paugh, whose regime has been reported
frequently to be unsatisfactory to the
Indians management.
The team has been losing more than
half of its starts OF late, and dropped
from first place to fifth in the American
League race.
The selection of johnson came as a
complete surprise to the experts, all of
whom were picking various base ball
figures for Peck's job.
The selection was announced on the
heels of an infrequent meeting of the
board of directors of the club.
In its dramatic announcement, the
Cleveland management conjured up be-
fore the fans the name of a man whose
career with the Senators began back IN
1907 and lasted until 1882.
Johnson was the Big Train, too, in
the days when Iris Speaker was the
idol of Cleveland-and Ty Cobb's star
was high in the heavens.
johnson Is no novice at base ball
management. He began with the Sena-
tors in 1929, and although he brought
the team in fifth that year, he piloted
the Mats into the thick of the pennant
race in 1880, 81 and 80. He was sue
ceeded by Joe Cronin
With the exception Of Connie Mack,
Roger Peckinpaugh was the oldest big
league manager in point of continuous
one-club service when he was deposed.

DELEGATION CHIEFS
| IN SECRET PARLEY
Hull and Macdonald Talk for
As Minutes After
Luncheon.
BY the Associated Press.


LONDON, June 9-Secretary OF
State Cordell Hull, head of the Ameri-
can delegation to the World Economic
Conference, and Prime Minister Ram
say Macdonald of Great Britain had
private talk lasting As minutes after
luncheon today at the home of Ray
Atherton, counselor to the American
embassy
Considerable secrecy surrounded the
luncheon. Where Mr. Hull had been
was not revealed until after he had
returned to conference headquarters.
1t was stated in high American quar-
ters that the debt topic was not raised
The meeting between Mr.. Macdonald
and the American Secretary Of State
took place after a newspaper interview
in which Mr.. Hull struck out vigor-
ously at what he described as attempts
by minority groups" in various coun-
tries to divert attention from the real
purpose of the conference to relatively
minor issues.
Subjects Limited.
Hull, facing roomful Of American
and British reporters at his hotel in
his first press conference in England.
said that in view of the magnitude and
difficulties of the economic problems
facing the parley he does not consider
n uitI,ir tho functions of his de1epatior
to go outside a well defined list of
subjects outlined in the formal pro-
gram for discussion.
He spoke out emphatically when
asked about London newspaper story
directing attention to his reference to
the Irish Free State as an Irish "re-
public" when he spoke at Cobb en- route
to England.
This reference caused some discussion
because of Ireland's relations with Eng
land and republican sentiment in Ire
land
II have no doubt that minority
groups in every country will be sitting
up nights trying to divert attention to
some wholly slight consideration and
thereby attempting to divert the work
of the conference from its real pur-
pose' he said.
War Debts Ruled Out.
Hull definitely ruled out war debts
as a subject for consideration here, say
ing that he would not presume on any
subjects which already were not on the
program of the conference.

ACCEPT SUBSTITUTE
VETERAN PAY PLAN
Democratic Steering Group
of House Adds Clarity
ing Amendments.
BY G. GOULD LINCOLN.

President Roosevelt's substitute fol
the Connally amendment to the in.
dependent offices bill, dealing with vet
erans' compensation, was accepted by
| the Democratic Steering Committee OF
the House today, with some clarity
ing amendments"
Efforts will be made to rush il
through the House so the independent
offices bill may be sent to conference
without further delay.
In view of the fact the special House
Veterans Committee had given its ap-
proval to the substitute plan before the
Steering Committee acted upon it, its
adoption by the House is regarded as
foregone conclusion.
Will Obtain Special Rule.
A special rule from the Rules Com
mittee of the House for the considera-
tion of the Connally amendment will be
obtained this afternoon. This rule would
compel the House either to take the
substitute or reject It, and would permit
no prior vote on the Connally amend
ment.
Chairman Pou of the Rules Commit
tee, acting as spokesman for the Steer
ing Committee after its meeting, made
the following announcement:
THE committee had a harmonious
meeting. We substantially agreed to
the form Of rule which will probably
be reported to the House this afternoon
by the Rules Committee.
'The Steering Committee unani-
mcusly agreed to the report made to it
by the Special Veterans Committee"
No Vital Changes Made.
The report of the Veterans Commit
tee approved the Presidents substitute
for the Connally amendment with GER
tain notifications.
Pou said that no vital changes had
been made by the committee in the
Presidents proposal. When he was
tory to the President, Mr. Pou replied
that was a matter the President him
self would have to determine.
The Presidents proposal understood
to be the extent to which Mr.. Roosevelt
is willing to go in increasing the appro-
priations for veterans, gives the pre-
sumptive cases" six months in which
to appeal, and puts the burden on the
Government to prove these veterans are
not entitled to compensation. They would
remain on the rolls in any case until
October 81. Originally the President
had fixed September l at the date.
Regional boards to pass upon these
appeals of the presumptive cases will
be set up. The proposal also looks to
aid for the Spanish-American War
veterans, many of whom were threaten
ed with immediate loss of compensation
if they could not prove their disabilities
service connected.
AS soon as the House has acted upon
this substitute, the bill will be sent to
conference with the Senate, where the
fight over the veterans compensation
may be renewed. President Roosevelt
is expected, however, to use his influence

NEW YORK, September 26.-Curb
Exchange stocks rallied in the first half
of today's session and reacted again In
the afternoon, closing With small net
losses in quiet trading
While there was no heavy pressure
of offerings at any time, the market
was also thin on the buying side. The
gold mining stocks came down with
the rest of the list in the late trading.
The ticker frequently came to a
standstill in the final hour. Profess
sionals were simply standing aside for
the time being, letting the market drift
by itself while they waited for some
new development in the outside news
to stimulate trading.
Fluctuations at the start were con-
fined to fractions, with a preponder-
ance of declines, but the market
steadied after the overnight offerings
had been absorbed and ranged slightly
higher by midday in most sections OF
the list.
Some of the utilities were able to
make progress on the side of advance
despite adverse dividend announce
ments. Commonwealth Edison of Chi
cago was weak however, as it was
sympathetically affected by the dividend
omission announced by Peoples Gas of
chicago. ElecLrlc Bona q snare was
active throughout the forenoon at frac-
tional gains. Utilities Power & Light
was quiet and firm following its state
ment for the IL months ended June so.
showing net profit of S1,095,632.
The oil stocks were not as active as
in recent sessions but most of them
managed to overcome small opening
losses. Standard Oil of Indiana, Creole
Petroleum and International Petroleum
were the favorites. Gulf Oil of Penn
sylvania was easy in the first half of
the session.
Realizing sales held back the gold
shares, which were helped by the rise
in the price of the yellow metal in
London. The repeal stocks moved up
briskly, led by Hiram Walker and Dis
tillers-Seagrams. Motors and tire
stocks were firm.
