New York, Jan 27.-The movement to honor President Roosevelt when he becomes 52 years old on January 30 by giving Presidential Birthday Ball in every community in the land has become a virtual landslide.
 With approximately 5000 balls already planned in nearly $500 communities in every state In the nation and with new communities pouring in every day, 1t is already apparent that this will be the greatest birthday party in Ameri- can history. This exceeds by 1000 the early estimate that 5000 fetes would be held, according to Carl Byoir, general director.

URGE CHANGE IN

Legislature Proves Objec- tiOnable-Want Norris
 to Revise Idea

Omaha, Neb, (UP) -- Nebraska friends and advisers of Senator George W. Norris are urging him to abandon or drastically revise his ideas for a unicameral. or one house legislature.
 In It's present form the plan which Norris proposes to put uT 10 the voters in the November elections is certain of defeat, these men say.
 It's fate was forecast at the re- cent convention of the Nebraska Farmers' Union, which voted unan' imousIy against the plan. Farm leaders attending the con. ventIon said that if Norris would change his plan by providing foi at least 100 members in the ono
 house they would support it. They
 object to any scheme which would decrease the present membership of the Nebraska lower house. Most of the EtandDat republi.
 cans would oppose the unichmers plan simply because it was pro posed by Norris and it has found
 no hearty response from demo
 cratic ranks

 | Administrator Harry l.. Hopkins announced the move was two-fold. He said 1t was intended to promote efficiency on the local undsrtak- ings, for which the government has provided money, and to ston the grafting of politically appoint ed officials who had turned their jobs to mercenary ends.
 Hopkins made it clear that the appointment of any army egineef to any particular locality did not necessarily imply that there had been graft there.
 "My idea," he said, lis that engi- neers know public works. It Is our intention to put them where there arc jobs to be done"
