WYTHEVILLE, Va, June 19.-
Circuit courts in Virginia have the
power to fill vacancies on county
boards in the various counties, ac-
cording to an opinion delivered by
the Supreme Court of Appeals at
Wytheville today.
The decision was given III the
mandamus proceeding brought by
Benjamin M. Smith and Christopher
B. Garnett against Lyman M. Kelley.
Harry A. Fellows, Elizabeth M. Ma
gruder, Roy s. Braden, Edmund D.
Campbell and ]. L. May Of Airing
ton County. The petition was filed
June 5 and was argued June IL.
A writ Of mandamus will be issued
to Lyman M. Kelley, Harry A. Fell
lows and Elizabeth M. Magruder,
members Of the County Board of Ar
lington County, and Roy S. Braden,
county manager and clerk Of the
board, commanding them to admit
Benjamin M. Smith and Christopher
B. Garnett, as parties to all the de-
liberations and discussions Of said
board and requiring the clerk of said
board showing Benjamin M. Smith
and Christopher B. Garnett as duly
qualified members thereof.
The writ also will direct the other
members of the board and the clerk,
and each Of them, to refrain from in
terferring with, hindering or OBJ
structing the restored members Of
the board, Smith and Garnett, In the
discharge of their lawful duties as
members Of said board.

World statesmen saved their faces
at the Geneva Disarmament Confer
ence, but not much else.
Instead of admitting they could not
get anywhere, they appointed COM
mittees to study the situation" The
principal ministers then went home
and left the committees to subordi-
mates.
There will not be any disarmament
any time soon. The world Is not ready
for it.
The Democrats are arranging to
make big use OF Mr.. Roosevelt's
message on social trends for the
Fail campaign. They admit frankly
that 1t tDds a congressional cam
patgn document and tDas so In
tended.
The Republican political strategy Is
to bear down heavily on Mr.. Roose-
velt's expenditures. They know 1t Is
a hard issue to get over to the people.
The average man pays very little at
tention to Government figures, even
when he pays his income tax.
Their publicity men are trying to
work out some plan to popularize the
figures.
G. o. p. Gains Predicted.
Z The general supposition among the
political master minds is that the Re-
publicans will gain about so House
seats, but they really know nothing
about it. They cannot until they find
out what the prices Of hogs and wheat
are along about two weeks before elec-
ton.
Mr.. Roosevelt's policies were far
more popular in the House this session
than in the Senate. The reason is
that the House Is distinctly more left
wing than the Senate.
The reason Mr.. Roosevelt is making
that radio speech Is to encourage
business confidence, which has been
somewhat upset while the recent con-
gressional reforms were being enacted.

going away for ask weeks vacation)
the softening Of N. r. A. policy and
a number of other factors are remov-
ing the glum looks from those who
have been sour because they did not
get a better Spring improvement.
That is why the stock market has
been stronger recently. There will be
a July recession. There always is.
1t will be no shock to sentiment. Pros
poets for Fall are fairly good. You
can expect increased activity beginning
September and carrying through prob
ably until November.
The Spring peak may be exceeded,
but not by q very great margin.
Evening star., 1934-06-19

The main thing is Mr.. Roosevelt's s
pockets are bulging with money, the
sum he has Is so vast that 1t cannot
be accurately calculated. but 1t is
somewhere near 10 billions. This in
cludes the five billions he can use out
Of the r. F. c., the remainder Of the
public works funds, drought relief,
A. A. A. funds. etc.
Dependent on Emergency.
He will not spend all this money
unless an unexpected emergency
arises, but his economic calculators
are figuring now on putting out more
than two billions before the first Of
the year. How much they spend will,
Of course, depend on economic re-
quirements.
At any rate, he is well fortified to
meet any possible demands.
Mr.. Roosevelt is playing the John
Maynard Keynes game. That is,
he has quietly accumulated from
Congress this session authority to
spend these very great sums NTH
Diew to using them to balance the
business situation. He calls it
"prtming the pump"
Unquestionably, his rate Of expendi-
ture will increase during July and
August. His Treasury is in good shape.
His only worry will be to balance the
budget during the fiscal year begin
ming July l, 1895. His prospects Of
doing that are not very good, but that
Is long way of.
There is no prospect at all that he
will have to initiate for money to carry
his expenditures during the next six
months.
New Construction Boon.
No one in authority expects very
much out of the home repair and
modernization plan this year. In
siders are not saying so publicly. but
they have their eyes set on stimu-
lating new construction next year,
using this means to supplant the
public works program, which will then
be about played out.
Prices of manufactured goods gen.
orally will probably ease of in relation
W OGllcI pIlCCc, WIllCIl uLdy uClp w
spread a larger volume Of consumption.
There will be labor troubles, and
plenty Of them, but no more than we
are now having.
The President is really serious
about getting the ,pdr debts paid in
goods. His advisers on that subject
privately beliepe that is the only
iDdy they can be paid. They haze
scheme already ,porked out, but
1t cannot be offered publicly.
This scheme would have the debtor
governments purchase from their
own producers or manufacturers such
goods as rubber, tin, potash, perfumes.
These goods would then be shipped
to the United States Government,
which in turn would sell them to
American importers and credit the
money received to the debtors ac-
count. No cash would be involved.
There will be much jockeying back
and forth during the next six months
on this subject, but in the end you
may see final agreement along these
lines.

IN GAS TANK FIRE
Two Blasts Follow Blaze
Started by Burning
Oil Truck.
BY the Associated Press.

BY tne Associated FTesS.
JAMESTOWN, N. Y. June i9.-
Fire that followed terrific explosions
Of gasoline tanks which killed six
persons and injured % burned itself
out early today.
The district attorneys Office began
at once an investigation to determine
responsibility for the tragedy.
A tank truck, believed to have
caused the fire, was found burning
yesterday afternoon. a moment after
the driver, Herbert Johnson, started
the motor. While ne was calling the
fire department the flames spread,
first to the Office building of the
wholesale distributing depot and then
quickly to thrse 20. gallon gasoline
tanks.
Two Tanks Explode.
Fifteen minutes after the fire start
ed in the truck two Of the huge tanks
exploded, almost simultaneously. An
excited crowd, gathered to watch the
firemen fight the truck fire, was
hardly more than $50 feet distant
from the tanks when the explosion
occurred. They had resisted the ef-
forts of the few policemen to drive
them back out of danger.
At the terrific first explosion, which
sent sheets of fame skyward for hun
dreds Of feet, the laughter Of the
crowd turned to cries of fear, which
quickly became screams Of agony and
OF terror as vast tongues Of fame
billowed out sidewards.
Many were knocked down by the
explosion. Some we're trampled as the
hundreds of bystanders milled and
fought to get away.
The firemen, who had stood their
ground when the explosion came were
the first to feel the soaring flames.
Three Of the dead were from their
ranks.
Fourth Tank Saved.
When it became apparent the third
gasoline tank could not be saved,
police fired their rife bullets into it
to reduce the pressure and to pre-
vent the mushrooming side flames
which caused the deaths and injuries
after the first explosion. A fourth
tank, holding paraffin, was saved.
The fire burned most of the night,
while the vast clouds Of dense smoke
were borne away from the city by the
wind. The tanks stood just outside
the city limits on the highway, which
runs to Bemus Point on the north
shore Of Lake Chautauqua.
James Anderson, Is; Wayne Lewis,
IA. and Raymond Allison, 43, a fire.
man, died during the night. Walter
kastenhuber, IS; oscar Bloom, IS,
both firemen, and Henry Golozynski,
l8, were killed instantly.
Golozynski was caught by the worst
OF the flames. The heat was so great
that the metal of his bicycle was
melted. Fireman Kastenhuber. his
clothes aflame, collapsed in a pool of
burning oil. When his body was re-
covered, identification was possible
only through his charred helmet.
Bloom dragged himself clear. but he
was burned so badly he died before
comrades could reach him.
Kastenhuber was to have been mar
ried in two weeks.

Once more French soldiers stormed
the S,000-foot peak, even as they had
in 1915, and again they were met by
blasts of shells and bombs.
But today the enemy they fought
was a forest fire which swept across
hundreds Of acres, its heat exploding
old long-buried duds which failed to
kill 10 years ago.
Troops have been fighting the fire
since Saturday, their task made diff

and officials say the results will be
disastrous unless rain falls soon.
Wheat. potatoes and small vege-
