TUBERCULOSIS X-RAY DRIVE REACHES PEAK

In special bulletin today, the state depaTtment of health an nounced that already more than 10000 X-ray pictures have been taken of Connecticut school chil- dren since the start of the state- wide campaign against tuberculosis on October 8. By early November, the bulletin says, the demand for pictures had become so great that second X-ray unit had to be put into service on November 9. Since that time both machines have been working steadily and from present indications will be busy for several months to come. The department urged communities to make early arrangements for use of the ma chimes in order that itineraries may be mapped out which will save time both in transporting the units and the children. The rural com munities, the bulletin suggested, should plan to have their children X-rayed before snow set in, so that transportation difficulties may be avoided.

 MAKING APOLOGY
Will Not Take Back Any
 Statements Made About /. RaSkOb or Smith

Detroit, Dec 1-(UP)-The Rev Father Charles F.. Coughlin stood firm today on his statements of a relationship between Alfred E. Smith and the J. P. Morgan Co.
 Advised of demands of John J. Raskob, former democratic nation- al chairman. for an apology, Father Coughlin authorized the United Press to carry the follow ing reply:
 "Father Coughlin does not change the statement which he stance. Only yesterday the bishop from the Empire State building to the House of Morgan again reiter- ated to Father Coughlin that what stantially true.
 "On the word of this bishop, Father Coughlin made his state- ment. MT Raskob evidently has jumped to conclusions. Father Coughlin did not say in his state ment that MT Smith obtained the loan or that he had seen MT Nor gan personally.
 'If MT Smiths memory serves him well he can easily recall the trip which he made from the En- pire State building to the corner of and Wall street about four years ago in December.
 More than that it is very easy for him to recall the name of the cleric who rode with him. I will stand by the statement as made because the information came from the bishop who was with MT Smith,"

GOV ROLPH AND
 HOOVER INDULGE
 IN CONTROVERSY
Former President Nettled By Reference to Evic-,
 tiOnS of Bonus Men

San Francisco, Dec. .1-(UP)- Former President Herbert Hoover and Governor James Rolph. Jr.a were embroiled today in a heated controversy over the San Jose lynching against the bonus army in Washington.
 MT Hoover broke his long silence on public affairs by affixing his signature to a group statement which criticized Rolph's 'lauda- tory' attitude in the lynchings of two kidnap- -slapers last Sunday.
 The statement intimated that Rolph could have prevented the mob action by dispatching troops. It also considered the governors laudation of the lynching as humiliation and shame" the state and asked the world to believe that most California citizens repudiated both the mob action and the gov ernor's approval
 eff troops had been called out hundreds of innocent citizens might have been moved down." Rolph replied.
 "There was no shooting such as that which occurred near the White House during the bonus march trouble. Had I sent out troops there might have been considerable shooting and right near the vicin- ivy of MT Hoover's home" The Hoover residence is in Palo Alto, several miles from San Jose.
 The reference to the Hoover's administration part of the army evictions of the bonus army net tied the former president.
 4 ..l-. nrNk a single person was injured by the troops called out in Washington in response to the appeal of the local authorities" Hoover said. '"The troops ended the bloodshed which was then in progress through con- fiicts between rioters and the po- lice
 "The issue here is plain and not to ~be obscured by such misstate- ments. The governor has been ad- yocating lynch law
 Rolph had the last word to date when he issued a denial that had advocated lynch law"
 Ut is unbecoming for me as governor of this state to be carry ing on a controversy with the ex- president" the Rolph reply read. 1T cannot allow to stand, however, the ex-president's statement that advocate lynch law. On the con- trary, I have said and l repeat that l always will have profound re- spect for law and sane, orderly jus tice through the courts.
 And I repeat that I said in my original statement that while the law should have been permitted to take it's course, the people by their action have given notice that Cali fornia will not tolerate kidnap- ing"
 A mob took John Holmes and Thomas Thurmond from the San Jose jail and hanged them. They had confessed Kidnapping and kill ing Brooke L. Hart, 22.

PRESIDENT HAS ONLY HUMOR FOR
 ALL HIS CRITICS
Answers Them With Jests
 at a Thanksgiving Fete Last Night
By FREDERICK A. STORM |. United Press Staff CorrcspOndent)

Warm Springs, Ga, Dec l. (UP) Critics of his monetary policy were answered with jests by Presi- dent Roosevelt at Thanksgiving fete last night.
 Weaving references to national problems in a speech dealing with the entertainment and the work here for sufferers from infantile paralysis, the President laughed at opponents of his policy, justified logical experiments" and indicat- ed that the worst of the depres- sion was over.
 MT Roosevelt made his jests in comment on the performance of an amateur magician, Julian Boehm, of Atlanta, who was assisted with his tricks by Gus Gennerich of the secret service. The Presiden* laughing suggested that if Boehm was going to present Legerdemain that we all know nothing about, he might put on something on the gold standard"
 In his opening remarks, MT Roosevelt observed:
 T suppose I have my chance at the press and so I will tell you that there are certain papers in the United States that you need not read tomorrow. Because I am go- ing to tell you now what the head lines are going to be. They are go- ing to say that Julian Boehm is going to be appointed secretary of the treasury and that Gus Genner- ich is going to head the federal re- serve system"
 Commenting upon the steady growth of Warm Springs as a health center, MT Roosevelt turned to pay tribute to Dr Michael Hoke, medical adviser of the foundation and added:
 "He is man who is dear to my heart because he is not above a logical experiment.. He is also dear to my heart because in a larger percentage of cases than anybody else I know, his experiments work"
 Because of the emphasis which the President placed upon "eXperi- ments," friends looked upon his words as Justification for his gold buying policy which frequently has been referred to as an experiment.

MONETARY PLAN DEBATED BY TWO
 PROMINENT MEN
James P. Warburg, Bank .er and Senator BOrafl
 Are Disputants

Washington, Dec 1-U.P) - Monetary debate between James P. Warburg, New York banker, and Senator William E. Borah, repub- lican, Idaho, to-day veered to the subject of silver, reviving drive for it's restoration to the metallic base of the currency.
 Borah challenged Warburg to present better plan after the New Yorker recently criticized President Roosevelt's gold opera tions to depreciate the dollar. War burg replied with a proposal for joint action with Great Britain to revaluate the dollar on a modern ized gol: bullion standard.
 In turn Borah answered to-day that the conflict of interests of the two powers in the world markets made such conjunctive action Ire motely impracticable" even if it was desirable.
 Borah then criticized Warburg's proposal because it overlooked the part that silver must play in mone- tary reforms if purchasing power was to be restored to about half the worlds population, whose wealth is mainly in silver. Borah
 
 countries as India, China. Japan, and others.
 "No monetary system can in the future be considered sound and ef- ficient which does not restore to millions of people the money which they have used for 5000 years, which they desire to use, and which they will use if permit ted to do so," Borah declared.
 Speaker Rainey said the house was virtually certain to favorably consider some form of silver legis- lation. Senator Thomas, democrat, Oklahoma, said the senate infia- tionist bloc would support measures for the more extensive use of sil- yer as currency backing. Thomas personally favored REC purchases of silver until it reaches 75 cents an ounce, and thereafter a dollar backed by 75 cents woreh of silver and 25 cents worth of gold. Sen ator Pittman, democrat, Nevada, recently revealed President Roose- welt was considering several plans for silver rehabilitation, but indi- cated these lans contemplated raising the value of silver without it's primary coinage, which Pittman favors.
 Meantime former Senator Smith W. Brookhart of Iowa issued a statement in support of the pres ident's gold operations in which he contended that an honest dollar was a dollar that maintained an unchanged relation between debtor and creditor. Any metal or com modity that changes in value is a dishonest standard for money, Brookhart said.
