BROWN RETURNS LOST PAPERS IN
 ,AIRMAIL PROBE
Ex=POstmaster Gen. Says Character Assassins
 Did the Trick

Washington, Jan 20.-(UP)- Mysteriously missing official rec ords of the postoffice department. once thought burned, were avail able to Senate ocean and air mail contract investigators to-day after their sudden return by former Postmaster General Walter F. Brown.
 Brown, political leader of the Hoover administration, personally delivered the two fat files to the office of Postmaster General Far ley late yesterday and left them with the implication that they had been placed in his baggage by character assassins."
 None was present to describe the meeting of the two political chief tains, victor and vanquished, which official Washington regarded with interest because the Senate inquiry into the awarding of mail contract subsidies Is widely regarded as an inquiry into the Hoover admins tration by democratic leaders.
 Disappearance of the papers was described recently at tense hear ing before tho Senate committee Employees of the postoffice depart ment told how, on the eve of the democratic regime, they had been instructed to burn bags full of papers taken from Browns files.
 The papers which were de- stroyed, Brown explained in a let ter to Farley accompanying the files, were only those having "no permanent. interest or value." The work was supervised by employees in his office. Brown said, under "explicit instructions" not to dis turb any official papers.

 New York, Jan 20--CUP)-The stock market turned active and strong this week. Trading was the most active since late July, while prices advanced to the highest lew els since September 19.
 Railroad shares made the best showing, although all groups par ticipated in the rise with the excep- tion of the wet stocks, and they rallied slightly late in the week. Sugars and other issues with, . Cuban angle rose sharply as indi- cations pointed to early U. s. rec ognition of the new Cuban regime. Rubbers were given Q whirl; mo- tors reeained popularity; utilities had a fairly good week; oils picked up: chemicals, steels, aviation is- sues were in demand, and miscel- laneous issues were higher.
 Gains for the week ranged to more than 10 points in the active list and considerably more In the inactive issues. Volume was so heavy that tickers Jagged behind in several sessions.
 Impetus for the rise was fur- nished by President Roosevelt's monetary Iueood6c to NOh6hOo
 Wall Street interpreted the mes- sage as clarification to some degree of the monetary tangle. The presi- dent said the present would not be the right time for devaluation and therein agreed with many mone- tary experts.
 Meanwhile business indices made further gains in many sections. The car loadings report was not as good as the previous week, but 1t made a fairly good showing with the corresponding week of 1883. Electricity output was sharply higher and it made the best per- centage gain over a year ago of any week since that ended Septem- Der 30. Bank clearings were down slightly. Steel production and au- tomobile production made gains.
 Volume of stock trading crossed the 3,000,000 share mark in sev- eral sessions. There was consider able outside buying and some de- mand from foreign sources. The bond market was very active and its strength in turn reacted favor ably on the stock list. Then, too, it was making way for issuance Of the huge government financing which soon will be announced.
 Steel shares assumed leadership of the market for time, with U. S.! Steel crossing 55. Then a long list

Business Set-Up For
 The Future Changed
The Day of Big Business Ascendency Over National k Government Is Deniftely Ended

of national economic planning which .s, after all, the main ob- jective. Codes which is. after all, the main objective. Codes of fair practice ably conceived and faith fully executed can not solve the problem of chaos arising from hundreds of thousands of produc- tive and distributive units working without common national eco- homie plan.
 Undismayed by / the flocking tumble of governmental emergency agencies, the planning business men recommended the institution of q governmental central bureau of planning. It is recommended that this bureau should have q full year in which to work out comprehen- sive plans for governmental action
 "a year without a single practical step. Such a planning body in ac- ton would, of course, be compelled to mesh with private industry on many facets and would naturally evolve into a national as well as a governmental economic planning body.
 In comenting on the proposed setup in general, a business man of national reputation says that (a) the scheme places the responsibility for suggesting action where it be- longs, that is, upon the manage ment of industry. And (b) the re- sponsibility for saying what rules shall be used to enforce the powers lodged by the people of the United States in a representative of the government advised by all the major interests affected.
 It should not be understood that the business administrative units are to include representatives of labor and of the public. On the contrary, those groups are to be organized to look after their own interests, and in conjunction with the central authority of industry, will make final determinations for the decision of the chief admin istrator. who vii lbe appointed by the president. Eventually, after the various industrial clements have learned to work together they may be organized throughout the sev- eral steps of the scheme into the code authorities sothat at every step CD government, CD for pub lie, (3) industry management and () labor will confer and decide. Profits and wages will be alocated for the good of all elements. Ad- venture and specuplation will be eclipsed. Dramatic capture of for tune will be rare, but so also will be undeserved business failure. A certain rigidfication of business will follow, but that is inevitable in any order of society as it attains ma turity.
 The final goal of all this organi- zation is described as industrial self-government, which is in turn defined as primarily a proposition to preserve or increase the share of commerce and industry in mak- ing and administering the laws governing it.

SOCIETY TURNED
 OUT LAST NIGHT
 FOR GREAT BALL
Beaux=Arts A if ir Was More Elaborate Than
 for Many Years

New York, Jan 2O-(UP)-High society its resplendancy little dulled by four. years of depression turned out in the gorgeous trap pings of Marco Polo's time at the Beaux-Arts ball last. night. The event took place at the Waldorf Astoria, and was attended by 5000.
 Representatives of the arts and scions of families with illustrious names contributed to make the grand ball room of the hotel mag niflcent. From Park avenue came princesses of Venice and the Or tent, arrayed in gowns perhaps un- matched even in the luxurious period whose opulence they were meant to convey.
 A cast of 500 staged a pageant depicting the travels of the famed Venetial merchant whose journey to China in nfediaeval times and his meetings with oriental poten- tates dazzled the western world.
 Some of the picturesque cos- tunes were:
 Mrs Andrew s. Pierce, Sd: Man chu empress, in flame and silver. trimmed in white and black and embroidered in crystals, and lined with chartreuse satin.
 Mrs Harrison Williams: Stylized Chinese princess, in black chiffon, appliqued with black velvet and embroidered with crystals and dia- monds.
 Mrs George Washington Kav- anaugh: Court lady of old Italy, canary velvet and gold, embroid. cred in jewels and precious stones.
 The celebrants danced until dawn

GOLD BILL WILL
 FACE BATTLE IN HOUSE TODAY
Leaders Expect to Sweep It Though-Senate to
 See Worst Scrap

washington, Jan 2O.-(UP)- The Roosevelt gold bill, the most significant monetary legislation be- fore congress in decades, faced its first vital test in the house today with administration leaders confi- dent of passage despite growing clamor for restricting amendments. Party lines were strengthened by democratic leaders before the ses- sion met. Majority Leader Byrns said there was mo doubt" the bill would be acted on before nightfall and passed on to the sem ate in line with the administra- tion's request for enactment by Tuesday. The bulk of the republi- can membership was expected to support the measure on the final vote.
 Meanwhile the senate banking and currency committee went on with hearings which have brought protests from economists and fed- eral reserve officials against vari- ous provisions of the bill. Warm ings that the legislation might af- feet the security of federal reserve notes and that uncontrolled infla- ton might result have been made by witnesses. The situation in the senate admittedly was fraught with dangers for the presidents effort to have the bill passed by Tues day 50 that treasury refinancing plans might be pursued. Obstruc- tionist tactics were certain. Sena- tor Glass, dem, Va, and Senator Hastings, repn, Del, have charged the federal reserve system gold seizure provision was unconstitu. tional.

Baldwins and Mcintosh were still making up the bulk of the supply but quite few Cortland were being brought in.
 A large share of the Mcintosh on sale were held for $1.75 to $2.00 a bushel. most of them being fancy. Baldwins were selling usually for around $1.25 a bushel, sometimes high as $1.35 a bushel. Not many are now arriving of medium grade priced around $1.00. Cortland were mostly of fancy. grade and selling for $1.25 and up, sometime as high as $1.50.

 He recommended that the pres ent nolfcy of coordination and con- solidation authorized in the emer- rencv act be continued for another year before taking final legislative steps.
 ssIn the meantime, it would be wise. quite apart from existing economic problems, to postpone inmediate consideration of any radical or major change in the or raniaation and conduct of the rall- road industry" Eastman added.
 His $50 page statement con fained a report of his department study of railroad problems since last June. and Investigations by Leslie Craven of the legal phases Of cancellations, and an inquiry oy William B. Bolan into the Prince plan. which would merge the na- lions railroads into seven maJor systems. Craven and Bolen are technical experts on Eastman staff. ., ..
 Briefly, Eastman learned that savings estimated by proponents oi the Prince plan at $740,000,000 an. nually would amount to about $2l8,O00.O00 and that it would eliminate competition at some points and increase 1t at others.
 Eastman's suggestion of govern ment supervised compulsory con. solidations were largely founded on the Craven report. The survey said the mergers could be effected legally and the securities ex' changed without violating tho law
 Eastman advised against under taking grand consolidation pIar immediatiy, however.
 "such plan would precipitats n controversy in which many rnil' roads, communities and labor would join with oquni ylgor nnd from which it would be difficult tc emerge," he declared.
 "Tho conclusion is reached that Drovlnlon for compulsory conSoll' dationn should be gIyen q trinl bnt only whore the commission Iiadh. after full public hearings that the consultations would bs in sho public interest snd on,y Mhern ihe eo0rdlnntOr recOmnlendl ihns a proceeding looking toward eompulssfy consultations Do ini' iiaied''
