BERLIN, March 22.-The first Ger
man Reichstag controlled by Adolf Hit
Ter in his political career of IA years
meets tomorrow to hear him outline the
government policy he intends to carry
out for four years without its aid.
The Reichstag Is expected to move
swiftly toward the goal he has set,
wiping out the last vestiges Of democ-
racy in Germany by ending its own ex-
istence for the allotted four years or at
least as long as he remains chancellor.
Approval Held Certain.
1t Is almost an absolute certainty
that the enabling act drawn up by Hit
Ter, giving himself dictatorial powers
for that period. and completing setting
aside the present republican constitu-
ton, will be approved.
An indication of the attitude Of this
new Reicrstag, like none other that as
Sembled since the war, was the method
ical and rapid manner in which it car
ried out the program Of the Hitler
leadership yesterday. The regimented
Nizi Brown Shirts, in a comfortable
majority. with the Communists barred
from taking their seats, completed its
organization in nine minutes and COM
pleted its first business session in the
Kroll Opera House in 25 minutes.
The speech making there and at
the ceremonial opening in the Imperial
Garrison Church at Potsdam earlier in
the day was left to the designated
leaders Of the government and the
venerable President Paul Won Hinden-
burg.
Military Precision.
The Reichstag functioned with
military precision. The Socialist bloc
of 125 members sat to the extreme
left in the late afternoon session, and
abstained from voting for the Nazi and
Nationalist officers elected. including

Byrns Sees Overwhelming
Vote and Doubts Need
of Roll Call.
FOLLOW THE PRESIDENT,
SLOGAN OF DEMOCRATS
Four.Hour Debate Marked by
Political Explanation of
Votes.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The House plunged anew into debate
on the administration farm bill today,
q strong majority ready for a vote and
sure Of its passage.
So many members wanted to give
their reasons for favoring or opposing
the bill, however, that the original de-
bate time limit was extended. When
the bill was taken up today, an hour
and half remained of the four first
allotted, but at the request Of Chair
man Jones Of the Agriculture Commit
tee, q total of three hours was allowed
before the vote.
No amendments were permitted under
the drastic procedure adopted. This
left the clear-cut issue of taking or
leaving the bill, and most debate was
devoted to advance explanations Of
individual votes.
Byrns Predicts Passage.
A prediction that the House would
pass the bill before night by an over
whelming vote was made by Repre-
sentative Byrns, majority floor leader.
Byrns said he doubted even whether
a roll call vote will be necessary"
Representative Cullen Of New York,
leader of the Tammany delegation, in
formed party leaders that at least 27
of the 20 Democratic votes from the
Empire State would be thrown behind
the bill.
This information came after John F..
Curry Of New York, boss Of Tammany
Hall, advised Cullen to have the Tam
many and allied members support all
the Presidents proposals.
Another Phase Awaited.
With dispatch Of the bill to the Sen
ate imminent, it was learned that Pres
ident Roosevelt will by the end Of the
week send to Congress another phase
Of his farm aid plan, recommenda-
tons for reflnancing agriculture and
home mortgages at lower interest. His
plan involves reduction In payments
not only on debts owed the Govern
ment, but on those privately held as
well.
Mr.. Roosevelt has two purposes in
mind in his proposed credit legislation.
First, he wants to unite into one or
two agencies the eight Federal farm
credit organizations now in existence.
BY this he also hopes to put the
Federal farm loan banks and joint
stock land banks on q sounder and
more efficient basis.
Secondly, he wants to bring about q
real refinancing of the mortgages now
borne by farm and home owners.
It was said the new plan probably
would be along the same general lines
as the Canadian system.
Millers File Protest.
A new protest against the pending
farm relief bill was laid before the
members just before the vote. 1t was
an open letter from the Millers' Ma
tional Federation, asserting the process
sors' tax provided by the bill would
increase the per capita tax burden
$l177.
The letter contended that benefits of
the measure to farmers would be limited
to very few States.
Few changes in votes, however, were
looked for as a result of this last-min-
ute objection.
Political explanation, devious and
elaborate, filled long hours of House
debate on the bill yesterday.

The Federal Government, how
ever, has failed to take advantage

send scientists to the most suit

the request was refused.
Taking of pictures at various
stages of the eclipse will allow
scientists to check on whether
the light rays of stars in the

eabout six miles, three away from
kennels and three back.
The pace is a sane one, so that
the time involved in this bit of
preparation is about an hour and
o half. BY degrees distance and
pace are increased until finally,
at the end Of the season, the
distance covered ranges around
IS miles and the time utilized
totals from two and one-haH to
three hours. In the late after.
noon the hounds are walked.
Cubs Five Times Weekly
In clubbing season, during
September and October, the
Orange county cubs five times
a week. Cub hunting starts
early, generally between $50 and
6:30 a. m, compared with meets
at 10 and IL q. m. in the regular
hunting season.
Clubbing season is the time
when o young hounds hunting
abilities are tested and older
entry sharpen their senses. Young
hounds are studied carefully and
must pass an acid test before
they are permitted to join the
pack for regular hunting.
In clubbing season the pack is
divided into two parts (that it
may not be unwieldy, and for
other practical purposes), the
first Of which cubs on the first
day and the second Of which
cubs on the second day.
The part Of the pack that cubs
the first day Is hunted early and
Immediately on its return to ken
nels (along about 10 to II q. m)
the part that has not been
hunted that day is roaded or
exercised, while later on-in late
afternoon-the part that was
hunted that morning is walked.
Walking is a lighter form Of
exercise than reading, since
huntsman and whip are afoot
while walking hounds but are
mounted when roading. A horse
will walk about five miles an
hour, but q man walks much
slower.
On the second day the portion
Of the pack which did not cub
hunt the first day is hunted early
in the morning, and upon its
return to kennels the part that
did not hunt is roaded, while
the part which did hunt this
second day is walked in late
afternoon and hunted early on
the third day.
This procedure is followed
throughout clubbing season.
Soft Roads Emphasized
In relation to roading a pack
it is important to keep in mind
the necessity of soft-surfaced
roads in a hunt country in con-
tradiStinction to hard-Surfaced
roads, as the latter are a scourge
to a hunt country, since they
bother horses even more than
hounds.
Attention is given to manners
Of q pack whenever hounds are
