ROOSEVELT FOR

'DiCtatoriaI Plan Backed
by Garner Favored by
President Elect.

By Scripps-HOWard EetcSpdper Alliance
WASHINGTON, Feb. 11.-Presi-
dent-elect Franklin D. Roosevelt
was represented here today as Will
ling to accept the pictorial" power
over fiscal policies and departmental
reorganization given him in the
amendment which house representa-
tives will offer to the treasury
postoffice appropriation bills.
Under the Garner proposal, which
is much more far-reaching than
that added to the bill in the SEN
ate, Mr.. Roosevelt would have au-
thority to reduce all appropriations
by 10 per cent within standards set
by congress.
Under some interpretations of
this provision, he could cut salaries
at will, reduce air mail contracts
and slice allowances provided by
law for veterans.
The senate economy program al
ready empowers him to consolidate,
curtail or even abolish independent
bureaus and agencies.

NEW AIR MAIL PLAN
MAY REPLACE SUBSIDIES
Higher Rates and Postcards Offered
by Bill to Keep Service Going.

BIZ Scripps-Hotoard Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON, Feb. IA solu-
ton of the high cost of transports
ing the air mail, which will enable
the government to get from under
the present $4,000, 900 subsidy load,
and enable the air transport COM
panies to operate profitably with
out federal contribution, has been
found in bill introduced by Rep
resentative Clyde Kelly rep, Pa,
in the opinion of members of the
house committee on postoffices.
The senate last week struck out
the s19,O00000 air mail subsidy from
the postoffice department bill and
unless the fund is restored in con-
ference between the house and SEM
ate operation of the air mail will
be jeopardized after July 1.
The Kelly measure would increase
the postage rate to 5 cents a half
ounce instead of cents an ounce
as at present. This is expected to
increase revenues, and authorize a.
new air mail postcard for 2 cents.
This is expected to stimulate much
new business.
Contractors who now have air
mail route certificates would sur
render them and receive in return
route warrants authorizing them to
carry mails for mills pound mile.
