Virginia Senator Will Take
Floor to Give Version of
Talk With President
BY international News servIce


Senator Carter Glass, Demo-
cratic opponent of the New Deal,
will take the Senate floor and
explain his stand in the stock
market bill, he announced today.
He has resigned from the Sen.
ate Banking Committee because
he was not appointed to the con-
ference committee on the mea-
sure. Senator Barley CD Of
Kentucky, who, although a junior
to Senator Glass, was named as a
conferee, has complicated the
situation by attempting to resign
his membership on the conference
committee because he docs not
have free hand"
COntroverts President
Senator Glass today disagreed
with President Roosevelt's version
of a conversation they had at the
White House concerning the
formers proposal for a presiden-
tial commission of five members
to regulate the stock exchanges,
which was incorporated in the
Senate's stock market bill.
The President told newspaper
men that he had told Senator
Glass to "go ahead and embody
his suggestion in the Senate bill
and also that he had asked Repre-
sentative Rayburn 3D. of Texas
to proceed with the placing Of
control in the hands of the Fed
eral Trade Commission. The Presi.
dent explained he had not made
up his mind between the two sug'
geStions.
Tells of Discussion
Commenting upon the Presi-
dents statement, Senator Glass
said:
II talked with the President
before a word of my amend
ment was drawn. He said for
me to 20 ahead and substitute
my proposal for the Rayburn
bill"
Senator Glass has told col
leagues that the President favored
stock market control by the prest
Dental commission.

PRISON CLOSES
ON 8 GETTLE
K|DNAPERS
"SnatChers" in San Quentin
As U. S. Indicts Them on
Mail Violation Charge

SAN QUENTIN PRISON, Cal,
May II UN.SD-Prison doors
closed today on the three kidnap-
ers who a week ago "snatched'
William F. Gettle, millionaire oil
man, and held him for 100000
ransom. They are sentenced to
life.
Brought here during the night
from Los Angeles, James Kirk,
Larry Kerrigan. and Roy Williams
arrived soon after prison officials
began the routine business of of.
ficially receiving new inmates.
The Federal Government moved
swiftly to make sure of their in
generation for the rest Of their
natural lives by indicting them un-
der United States postal laws.
Shortly after the three were
taken on train handcuffed and
under heavy guard for prison, po-
lice arrested a fourth suspect,
Clyde Stoddard, an alleged former
booze runner.
Stoddard was arrested as a re-
suit of the discovery of an automo-
bile in the garage Of the La
Crescenta bungalow where Mr.
Gettle was held captive after being
abducted from his $250.000 Ar
cadia estate.
The automobile was registered
to another man but Stoddard ad-
mitted owning it, according to
Police Captain William Bright
who said, however, that Stoddard
had denied all knowledge of the
kidnapping.
Meanwhile the two women ar
rested in the sensational round
up of the snatch gang were back
in jail in lieu of bonds of $4,000
each following their pleas of not
guilty to charges of sending extor-
tionary letters through the mail.
The pair, Mona Gallighen, alias
Joan Burke, and Loretta Woody,
were indicted with Kirk, Kerrigan
and Williams by a Federal grand
jury.
Although no State charges have
been filed against the two women
District Attorney Buron Fits in
Structed a deputy district attorney
to file kidnapping charges if the
evidence warranted.
Stoddard, the fourth suspect.
said that he had received a tele-
phone call from Larry Kerrigan
early Sunday night requesting
that he drive the car to a Los
Angeles apartment where Kirk,
"boss man" of the kidnapping, was
arrested Monday.

HOUSE To RUSH
LOANS BILL
BY International News Service

BY International News Service
House leaders today planned to
expedite passage of the bill pro-
viding for direct loans to industry
through the R. F. C. and the
Federal Reserve Banks.
The House Banking Committee
approved a measure which au-
thorizes 40 million dollars for
this purpose, while the bill passed
by the Senate provides $50 million
dollars.
The House bill limits the amount
of any loan granted by the R. F. C.
to 100000, against $1,00O,O0O
stipulated by the Sentae.
The latter measure authorizes
the R. F. c. to provide $50 million
dollars and the Federal Reserve
Banks $50 million dollars, while
the House bill empowers the r. F..
c. to disburse 300 million dollars
and the banks only 40 million dol
lars. The banks would take the
money from their surplus funds.

BARGAIN POWER

BY 6 D. P.
Many Amendments Proposed,
But Democrats Promise
To Defeat Them

Congress turned into its legis-
lative homestretch today as the
Senate began consideration Of
the Administration bill granting
broad tariff-slashing powers to
the President for negotiation Of
reciprocal trade agreements.
The bill represents the last
major item on the legislative
program. although silver legiSla,
ton and the Presidents housing
program will be enacted before
Congress quits.
Hopes to Quit June l
Administration leaders are
striving toward a June l ad
journment, even though numer
Gus important bills must be
abandoned.
The tariff debate will feature
Senator Pat Harrison CD OF
Mississippi, chairman Of the Sen
ate Finance Committee. He pre-
pared a long speech, demanding
broad powers for the President
to negotiate agreements which
will revive Americas foreign
trade. An almost solid Demo
cratic majority supports the bill.
While the Republican oppo-
sition cannot defeat the bill, 1t
may embarrass the Democrats by
offering numerous amendments,
calculated to incur either agrl-
cultural or industrial wrath for
those who oppose them. In the
end the bill will be passed in the
form desired by the President,
observers said.
Many Exemptions Proposed
A series of Republican amend
ments have been prepared. One
by Senator Johnson (R0 Of
California would exempt all agri-
cultural commodities from the
proposed tariff-slashes.
Another would exempt all
commodities protected under the
AAA or manufactured under
MIRA codes.
A third Republican attack
would limit the Presidents power
to slash or raise tariff duties to
10 per cent.
Senator Vandenberg (R) of
Michigan will try to limit the
agreements to duty-free articles.
He noted that in 1882 $500 ,068,
900 of duty-free articles were i'm
ported, as compared with only
$40, 165, 900 of dutiable com
modities. In previous years. the
duty free imports totalled a.
much as $3.50, O00, 900.
