Science here last May. He left for the
Orient Immediately after graduation.
Two months before his graduation
Buchanan was suspended, Dean Theo-
dore NJ Focke said, because of q per-
sonal attack in the student newspaper
on President William E. Wickenden Of
Case He at first refused to apologize,
but later acceded to the deans demand
and was reinstated.
The article asserted the senior class
was disappointed in President Wick
enden" and that those who were at all
analytical reacted negatively to the
glibness of the new president" Buch-
man referred to Dr. Wickenden as the
darling of the women's clubs"
Dean Focke contended he had no
quarrel with Buchanan for his political
and social views and described him as
good student and apparently sin
cere in his radical beliefs" Buchanan,
however. termed the suspension Just
another effort on the part Of the ad-
ministration to muzzle and stifle pro-
gressive students who have the courage
to bring their convictions out in the
open"
A week before the deans action
Buchanan and two other Case seniors
called a meeting to protest the dismis-
sal Of several instructors. President
wickenden, invited to the meeting. re-
fused to confer with Buchanan and his
associates when it was disclosed that
they were the only members Of the

dent said the league was not repre-
sentative Of the student body. The 800
students in the audience then voted to
place their own chairman on the plat

FIFTEENTH VICTIM
OF EPIDEMIC DIES
U. S. Health Service Probes
Sleeping Sickness to
Find Cure.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
ST. LOUIS. August 22-The epidemic
of sleeping sickness in this vicinity
was described here today by Dr. J. P.
Leake Of the United States Public
Health Service as being by far the most
serious outbreak the country has ever
known.
Two deaths during the last "a hours
have brought the number of victims of
the strange malady OF encephalitis to
Is. while 14e persons were reported i'll
with the disease.
DR.. Leake. who was dispatched here
from Washington when the outbreak
first became serious. said there was no
reason to fear the epidemic would re-
sumo proportions Of plague. however,
and that there should be no undue
alarm.
THE situation IN st. Louis. never
theleSs, must be regarded as serious
he said, "as science knows little about
the disease.
Next in seriousness to the st. Louis
epidemic" DIR. Leake added, was the
one in Spokane. Wash, during 1919,
1920 and 1921. Over the three-year pc
riod 10 persons died, but the total num-
Der of patients did not compare with
those already i'll here"
DR.. Leake was joined yesterday by
Dr. Charles Armstrong, also of the Fed
eral Health Service. who will aid in
laboratory work in an effort to find
cause. carrier, preventive and cure for
the disease.
DR.. Ralph Muckenfuss of Washing
ton University. in an effort to produce
an immuniIng serum, has been con-
Quoting research with monkeys, inocu-
lating them with various materials
from patients A shipment of "a OF
the animals will arrive here from the
East within few days, DR.. Leake said.
Authorities at first were inclined to
the belief the disease was not conta-
gious. but today DR.. Paul Zentay as
sistant city health commissioner, said
every investigation of the spread of the
malady strengthened belief that it is
transmitted by contact with patients or
other human carriers.
In addition to the st. Louis district
fatalities, deaths were reported yester-
day from two other cities, Kansas City.
Kans., and Warrensburg, Mo. Mrs.
Efie Brooks of Ottawa, Kans.. died in
a Kansas City hospital and the death
Of Mrs James E. Rutherford Of Mars
Hill, N. c., was reported at Warrens-
burg.
Mrs Rutherford recently passed
through St. Louis on bus, but the
physician who attended her said he did
not believe her illness had any connec-
ton with the st. Louis epidemic.
The latest victims of the malady
here were Miss Vivian Freeman. 20. of
suburban Carsonville; Robert Raust, 3,
of Wellston, another suburb. and Frank
Hackmann, So, of Pine Lawn.

Moley Plans Personal
Political Work for
Roosevelt.
BY PAUL MALLON.

DROF. MOLEY will wind up his
- crime chasing job around Sep
tember Is and then probably
i will undertake some personal
political work for Mr. Roosevelt.
1t will concern longtime planning
for the congressional elections next
year-and 1886.
Arrangements for that finale to the
Moley case have just about been worked
out on the inside They probably will
be discussed when the President talks
with Moley at Hyde Park tomorrow.
The nationa1iStic adviser to the
President may or may not keep his
office in the State Department
probably not.
At any rate, Mr. Roosevelt will not
assign him to international business
unless he is consulted privately on war
debts
The official explanation will be offered
that Moley's original assignment to the
State Department was only temporary.
That is true, but rather thin in view
of what has happened.
Aroused Foreign Leaders.
A better explanation seems TO be the
fact that Moley rather aroused the for
eign statesmen with whom he dealt at
the London Conference. 1t might be
difficult for him to deal with them here
after.

PLAN AID
FOR AUSTRIA TRADE
France, England and Italy
Reported in Move for
Rehabilitation.
BY the Associated Press.


PARIS. August 22-Immediate aid
to depression stricken Austria by lift
ing the restrictions against Austrian ex
ports is being arranged by France and
England and probably by Italy. it was
learned on high authority today.
France proposes to remove or readjust
her quotas on goods from Austria pend
ing consideration OF a vast economic
reorganization of Austria and Hungary
and the little entente nations. Czecho-
slovakia Yugoslavia and Rumania.
The French plan. officials said con-
templates prompt aid as essential to
remedy Austria's grave situation. and
it is believed here that Italy and Eng
land take the same view.
In the meaptime German threats are
to be met by authorizing Austria to in
crease her armed forces by 5000 men
to the treaty figure OF 10000 These
new men will be used as gendarmes to
guard the frontiers against the activi-
ties Of German NaziS.
(Relations between Austria and Ger
many have been troubled recently be-
cause the Austrian government headed
by Chancellor Englebert Dollfuss has
set itself resolutely against the Nazi
movement within Austria. Several
controversial incidents have occurred,
particularly centering about the drop
ping of Nazi anti-Dollfuss propaganda
from airplanes flying over Austria and
about the broadcasting of similar prop
aganda from radio stations in South
Germany. These German activities
have caused Great Britain, France and
Italy to make investigations through
their diplomatic representatives at
Berlin)
Austria has. or will soon get, the
proceeds of loan Of 300 900 600 scl1il-
lings, Cnominally SAT, 100000 from the
League Of Nations But the French
consider this credit useless unless
Austrian economic conditions are i'm
proved by facilitating the nation
trade board
The recently signed four power peace
pact is not likely to be invoked in the
present difficulty. 1t is specifically pro-
vided that this pact applies only to the
four participants. and 1t is therefore
unnecessary to call Chancellor Hitler of
Germany into conference In trying to
save Austria. The parties to the four
power pact are Great Britain, France.
Italy and Germany.

HOOVER REQUESTED
TO APPEAR AT QUIZ
Early Decision Is Asked in
Letter by Detroit Bank

closed banks attracted widespread at

Dangerous Man"
Senator Couzens' request for Mr..
Hoover's testimony was made during his
listing Of certain unnamed persons
who, he said, had obtained loans from
the closed banks, which they would be
unable to repay. While discussing one
such debtor he said:
"There Is one director who was told
by President Hoover that / was a very
dangerous man. At this particu-
lar time 7 want to urge the Attorney
General and the prosecutor to invite
Mr.. Hoover to come here and tell what
a bad man / am" -
Senator Couzens did not reveal the
name of the director to whom he was
referring.
The Senator startled a packed court
room by a sudden reading Of what he
said were reports OF Federal bank ex-
aminers, detailing bad practices" in
said, were made in May and Novem-
ber, 1882
There are at least $40. 600, 900 Of slow
assets and 100000 of doubtful as
sets. not including loans on Detroit
Bankers Co. (the First National Hold
ing CO.. stock. which is classified as
slow but should be considered doubt
full quoted the Senator, reading from
the examiners report. There are
$49. 900 900 loss assets. How the insti-
tuition will ever work out cannot be
foretold" This, Couzens said, was
from a report made last November.
Matter of Judgment.
Undoubtedly. he said the Gov
ernment should have done something
to protect the depositors and protect
people from depositing any more money.
But it was matter of Judgment. II
the bank had closed in May. 1882. I
don't know If the depositors would
have gotten more or less than from
the closing when 1t did come"
Reading from the reports statement
s4,000000 in loans to en-
ployes OF the bank, of which it was
stated 80 900 900 already is loss and
more will be later" the Senator quoted
the examiners November. 1882, report,
as follows:
Most OF these loans were for the
purchase of Detroit Bankers Co stock
tthe holding company. The fall i'll
this stock has broken the morale of the
employees and created oefalcatlon dam
gers. The directors should relieve the
employees of this stock. The stock has
fallen from more than $500 a share to
SO and is the root of much Of the
trouble. The bank has about 256,000
shares as collateral for loans. 1t was
a dangerous act to allow such con-
dition to exist"
In further reading Of Federal re-
ports. the Senator quoted bank eXamin-
ers as referring TO "deplorable condi-
tions Of the banks assets and manage
ment." The statement declared that
With two or three exceptions. the ex-
ecuvves are weak and unqualified; fair
weather bankers who do not know how
to cope with present conditions. About
20 key men should be fired and replaced
with IL new men"

Insiders have a better whispered ex-
PLANTATION. 1t is accredited by Moley's
friends
They say Mr.. Roosevelt's recent
peaceful solution satisfied all but two
in the topmost circle. State Secretary
Hull was largely pacified and so was
Moley They would have been willing
to let the feeling die out in a few
months and resume the old relation
ship. Mr. Roosevelt had worked them
around to that point.
One who was not satisfied was the
influential wife of State Department
official. The second was an adviser
closer to Mr.. Roosevelt than Moley
ever was.
Kept Boiling From Within.
The inner agitation against Moley
was kept boiling while the matter was
outside the Imelight during the past
few weeks. Stories and rumors were
planted that he was going to be BAN
ished to Hawaii and possibly further
A cake of Ice near the South Pole was
suggested.
This agitation may not die down
until Moleys friends also are gone
from the State Department. The three
who have been closest to him are As
sistart Secretary Payer, Special As
sistant Bullitt and Arthur Mullen, jr,
son of the Nebraska politician
The complete passing of the Moley
crowd from the State Department
would be far more important than the
personalities involved. Their trans
ference to domestic questions would
leave the diplomats In the interna-
tional saddle.
Evening star., 1933-08-22

No immediate change in policy can
be expected, but the long time inf1u-
ence would be toward more friendliness
and less nationalism in our interna-
tional affairs. At least the balanced
front at the State Department would
be removed.
Mr. Roosevelt personally has leaned
to1Ddrd strong ndtionalism. 1t is
quite possible he may decide at the
last minute to keep the balance he
originally instituted He may in
stall some knoUn non-diplomats in
the department. Or he may upset
eristing arrangements and require
Moley to keep his State Department
Office
He has been known to change his
mind before and likes to do it.
Labor Builds Spy System.
The best inside spy system for code
evaders has been worked out through
the A. F. of L.
President Green has instructed all his
members to keep an eye on things
out through the country They are to
report any suspected violation of the
codes to him. He will report to Gen
Johnson
That means the Government will
have a closer watch on code chiselers
than it could possibly institute for
itself.
Forestry Plan Working.
The one Roosevelt relief measure
which really IS doing the Job cut out
for it is the one the Republicans laughed
at most-the forestry camp campaign.
1t Is hitting on all six, while the others
are still in the process of formation.
There are about $4,000 formerly des-
titute boys in the camps. Three-fourths
of their salaries go directly to their
families, who were on charity relief
rolls The boys themselves consume
more than a thousand carloads OF
foodstuffS per month.
That means the creation of dual
purchasing potDeT-lDhdt the GOUern-
ment buys for the boys and 1Dhdt
tie destitute families buy NTH the
salaries of the boys.
Some good results from the N. r. A.
are beginning to be noted in various
sections, but it is too early yet to tel
the degree of benefit to the drive. More
good is expected from the individual
codes on steel, oil and lumber than
from the blanket code method. The in
dividual codes mean specific increases
in salary and can be more closely
checked.
