PORK BARREL
 LEGISLATION
 TO BE OUSTED
Rivers, Harbors Projects Brought Under Differ
 ent Methods Now
By HERBERT PLUMMER

WASHINGTON, Oct. 31.-Reports persist in Washington that the an- cient system of pork barrel leg islation for river and harbor pro- jects is headed for the discard in the next Congress.
 A special board is now at work studying the use of the nations land and water resources and is expected to submit it's recom- mendations to President Roosevelt sometime before the next session
 The question of rivers and har- bors is certain to comprise most important part of this report.
 For years, when the country was more prosperous than it has been of late, the rivers and harbors bills were favorite grab bags of politi- clans. It has been conservatively estimated that over a period of the last hundred years approximately one and three quarter billions of dollars have been spent for this purpose.

Business Leader May Be Assigned to Administ-

WASHINGTON, Oct. 31.- An other business leader came to the forefront today in MIRA when it developed that D. Averill Harri- man, Chairman of the Board of the Union Pacific, will probably get the job of administering the Blue Eagle Unit as special agent of the governing board.
 Mention of Harriman's name, some observers thought, is new evil dence of increasing influence of a large scale of business in reor- ganizing the NRA.
 Harriman's job will probably be more important than when the duties were under Gen. Hugh s. Johnson.

LONDON, Oct .31.-The giant British cooperative movement, born 90 years ago in humble shop in Toad Lane in the Lancashire vil- lage of Rochdale, has carried it's phenomenal growth through the depression years.
 Figures just published by the Co., operative Union show that the re- tail distributive societies in the United Kingdom boosted their T membership at the end of last year to the record total of 6,9i7,138.
 This was an increase of l56, 6,706 members over 1892 and of 27,118 members over 1881, when 148 per cent of the English, 15.7 per cent of the Scottish and 7.3 per cent of the Welsh populations were in the movement.
 Only once in the 53 years for which figures are available has the membership showed decline. This was in 1922 when the total slump ed by 29,395.
 Humble Start Recalled
 The movement last year embrac- ed 1,280 societies in it's productive, wholesale and distributive phases. This was 21 less than the year be- fore, Is societies having amalga- mated. five being dissolved and two new ones being formed.

 In contrast, the British retail so- cieties alone last year had a share capital of $62O.278,495, an increase of $15,777,005 over 1892, and em- ployed 191, $50 workers, an increase of 2,823 over the year before.
 The 1883 turnover by the retail societies was valued at $986, ,285 ,045, a decrease of $i9,822 ,860 from the preceding year. Officials state, how ever, that the fall of prices was largely accountable for the de- crease in value and that the vol ume of the trade increased.
 Before the Rochdale pioneers started their shop, various cooper ative enterprises had been attempt ed and failed. The Rochdale scheme differed from it's predecessors main ly in that it introduced the princi- ole of return of profit on basis of purchases.
 One Vote Per StockhoIder
 This feature has been carried out in the movement as it has grown today. There is a limitation of 5 per cent on the interest rate on the capital invested by members, profits are returned on the basis of purchases and third distin- guished principle is that one man is entitled to one vote regardless of the amount of money he has invested.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 31.-- The nations voters will deliver a yer dict of approval or disapproyal of the New Deal' in the biennial elections on November 6.
 Overwhelming endorsement of the Roosevelt administration is pre- dicted by many observers. Republi cans and Progressives. however, are given fair chances to make some gains, but not enough to capture control of Congress.
 In Congress 432 house and 34 Senate seats are at stake. Thirty three states elect governors and other state officers.
 The election is the first big test before the voters on the New Deal" which is the major issue be- tween Democrats and the old guard Republicans. Some G. O. P. candidates, particularly the Inde- pendents, however. have approved portions of the Roosevelt recovery program.
 Farley Leads Campaign
 As Chairman of the Democratic National Committee, Postmaster General Farley has led the cam paigning for the New Deal" ad- vocating reelection of Democratic Congress and Democratic governors.
 Cabinet members and others high in the administration are taking the stump for final blasts in the campaign. They are telling the voters that only by returning a Democratic Congress can tn e recovery program be com- pleted.
 President Roosevelt has made no strictly political utterances, but ad- ministration supporters say his "fireside talks" to the nation and remarks elsewhere have stimulated the voters to cast Democratic bal lots on November 6.
 Uphlil Fight Tor G. O. IF.
 Republicans, handicapped by the lack of funds and harmony within their ranks, have had an uphill fight. National party leaders con- centrated their attack on the New Deal' in it's entirety and the recital by Farley and other Democrats of amounts of federal relief funds poured into the states. They claim the Democrats were buying vot- CTS through the use of relief fig ures in campaign speeches.
 Chairman Henry F. Fletcher of the Republican National Commit tee denounced the Roosevelt poll cies as retarding recovery, inter fering with private business, de- stroying confidence of bankers and industry and said the administra- tion was leaning toward socialism.
 The decision, will be made by approximately 28 900 900 voters. Off year elections produce only about TO per cent of those in presiden- tial years. Nearly 4O.0000 900 votes were cast in 1892, when President Roosevelt was elected.
