certainty.
BY the Associated Press.


CANTON, China, May 10.-Bank-
notes are falling in value. which usually
is a precursor of political changes, and
much uncertainty has arisen in Canton
as a result of the arrival last week OF
Engene Chen. former foreign minister
of the Nationalist government.
Mr. Chen plans to live In Canton
and is being appointed member Of the
Southwest Political Council.
The arrival of Gen. Chen Ming-Shu
from Europe and his cordial relations
with members of the Canton govern
ment also are causing speculation, es-
pecially as he still commands the 18th
Route Army.
This army, known the world over for
its defense of Shanghai against the
Japanese, has units at Shiuchow still,
awaiting the completion of southern
expeditionary force to participate in the
anti-Japanese campaign in the north.
Political circles In Canton increas-
ingly believe that Chang Kai-Shek,
highest military commander IN the
Nanking government, Is reaching an un-
derstanding with Japan. This certainly
would produce another Canton rebellion.

CAUSE DISMISSAL OF RIVERA
Famous Mexican Artist Discharged Before Rockefeller
Center Work Is Done.

Rockefeller Center officials said that
neither in general treatment. nor
in detail, will it fit into the unified
decorative scheme planned for the great
hall" In other words irrespective Of
its merits as a painting. it is "artis-
tically and dramatically incongruous :"
They added that the artist had de-
clined to make certain changes.
Rivera said objection was made to a
figure of Lenin joining the hands Of
a soldier. a worker and a colored man,
which was to have surmounted' the
painting. In the background were
crowds of unemployed waving red flags
Rivera said he was told that Rookie
feller and advisors did not find the
mural as highly imaginative" as ex-
pected. They objected to its effect as
unpleasant, he said. and to the bril-
liant color of the flags.

Pole was called as a witness in the
Senate's investigation Of delay in the
prosecution Of Joseph w. Hartman,
former president Of the Hartman Ma
tional Bank e. Trust Co.
Questioned by Senator Robinson, Re-
publican, Of Indiana, he said he made
no personal investigation Of the Harri-
man Irregularities, but relied on the ex-
aminer's report.
Common Matter, He Says.
''Defalcations are common matters in
the controllers ofice, you know" he
said. 1T was only routine matter"
You mean defalcations Of bank presi-
dents are common" Robinson asked
Yes" the former controller replied,
calmly.
ITO the amount Of more than 4
million dollars?"
No" Pole replied.
If defalcations of bank presidents
are common, no wonder the people
have no confidence in the banks" Rob-
inson remarked.
NO wonder at ALL" Pole agreed.
Recommended No Action.
Pole said the irregularities were re-
ported to him by telephone from New
York in June, 1882. but he recon-
mended no action against Hartman
because the statute of limitations was
not involved and the condition Of the
banks was such that 1t might have
proved disastrous.
If 1t had been a clerk you would
have recommended action, wouldn t
you?" Robinson asked.
Il doubt it, at that time" Pole re-
piled
Senator Nicely. Democrat of West
Virginia asked If prosecution Of Har-
riman would not have restored con-
fidence.

Few Months.
BY the Associated Press.

Eugene Black of Atlanta as governor
of the Federal Reserve Board, succeed
ing Eugene Meyer.
Now governor of the Atlanta Federal
Reserve Bank, Black has indicated to
the administration he will be able to
hold his new post for only a few
months.
Meyer was cleaning up his desk to-
day, preparing to end his tenure Of
ONCE with the close Of business this
afternoon. He was appointed by
President Hoover September Is, 1880.
and designated as governor.
Black will assume one of the most
important posts of the new administra-
ton, since the Reserve System is to ad-
minister the wide currency and credit
expansion provisions Of the new infia-
ton bill.
Quick Action Due.
1t Is expected the President will
order into operation Immediately the
imitation machinery allowing the pur-
chase of up to $4,000 000, 900 of Gov
ernment securities. This would throw
huge sums of new money into circu-
lation.
The place held by a former gov
ernor Of the board. Roy Young, has
never been filled. nor has the vacancy
caused by the failure of the Senate
to confirm Wayland w. MCGEE.
MCGEE, who was appointed by Presi-
dent Hoover to fill an unexpired term
that ended in February. was renom-
has never acted upon the nomination.
The members, beside Gov. Meyer,
who are now in Office are Charles S.
Hamlin. Adolph c. Miller and George
r. James. The resignation of Gov.
Meyer left three places on the board
to be filled by President Roosevelt,
who also will name the governor. Sec
retary Of the Treasury Woodin is an
ex-off1cio member of the board and its
chairman. The controller of the cur
rency also Is an ex ofhcio member.

pansion provided for in the farm

serve Board Is given the opportunity 10
expand its open market operations and
purchase up to $4,000. 10000 Of Gov
ernment securities, or securities Of
corporations the majority of whose
stock is owned by the Government.
Money Incrsase Is Aim.
This expansion is intended to throw
hugh amounts Of new money into cir
cuIafion, and the governor Of the Fed
erG Reserve Board will be at the helm
of the organization which will direct it..
This form of expansion, termed the
most easily controlled that could be de-
vised, will be directly under the finger
tips Of the Federal Reserve Board,
which will act on the instructions Of
the President and Secretary Woodin.
In effect, the new law will make the
Board of Governors of the IL Federal
Reserve Banks. who compose the sys-
TENS open market operators, the di-
rectors Of the Presidents expansion
Through the Federal Reserve Banks
the new governor and the board will
play an important part in guiding the
destiny Of business and industry by di-
recting and approving loans that will
be made by member banks and the ex-
tension of Federal Reserve credit to
business generally.
