Tomorrow, the Griffmen will
take the field, weather permitting,
in Boston with the same lineup as
that planned for today. Earl
Whitehill, star lefthander, will
pitch, while Moe Berg. substituting
for the ailing Luke sewell, will be
behind the bat.
The remainder of the array"
was to include Joe Kuhel, at first
base; Buddy Myer at second;
Manager Cronin, short; Ossie
Bluege, at third; Heine Manush
in left; Fred Schultz, in center,
and Johnny Stone, in right.
WeiIand Likely
Boston will most likely send
Bob Weiland, big left-hander, to
the mound. A host Of MaSSachu-
sets dignitaries are scheduled to
attend, with Governor Ely due to
toss out the first ball.
Today'S poStponement, although
a disappointment to many, is a
blessing to the Griffmen in that
it will give Ossie Bluege, veteran
third sacker, just one more day
to rest the knee he injured in
yesterdays exhibition game
against the Baltimore Orioles.
Bluege was going to play TO-
day, despite the soreness, but TO-
morrow he'll be even more fit.
Four Games in Boston
The Griffs will play four
games in Boston-one tomorrow,
one Wednesday, and two on
Thursday as part of the celebra-
ton of Patriots Day in the Mas

MRS.ROOSEVELT
RAPS PRICES
FOR MILK
Consumers Should Pay Less,
Farmers Get More, Is View
in Praising Survey

81 would like to see a scaling
down of milk prices to con-
sumers and a raising Of prices
to the farmers.
Mrs. Roosevelt said that today
at her press conference at the
White House in praising the
nationwide milk survey now
being made in SO cities.
Mrs. Roosevelt also expressed
the hope that real interest in
the food value of dairy products
generally to children would be a
result Of the survey.
Can't Attend Fete Opening
The First Lady will be unable
to attend the sunrise ceremony
which will usher in the Cherry
Blossom Festival Thursday morn
ing, she said.
She is leaving for New York
on the midnight train tomorrow
and returning to the Capital
Thursday too late for the opening
ceremony. She hopes to attend
the ball and other events on the
program however.
A suit will be set aside for
the President Of Haiti in the
White House while he Is there
tomorrow, she said.
The President and his sister
were most charming to her on her
recent visit to the island repub-
lie, she explained. He is very
much interested in children's wei
fare, Mrs. Roosevelt said, and
has established a home for chill
dren out Of his own pocket.
Concerned in Nursery Schools
She expressed concern over the
report that the nursery schools in
the District will be closed May
Is, due to lack Of funds.
These schools she described as
the keynote Of future education,
teaching mothers as well as chill
dren and playing a most decided
ly inaSSStant part in the lives OF
the children.
The value Of nursery schools
is not understood generally, she
said, only technicians understand
ing their great Importance.
It is in the nursery school that
the child acquires the habits nee
esSary for education in the future,
she pointed out, including the
building of character and a foun-
dation of physical health.

MARGIN
ACT D. KID BY
PRESIDENT.
Rayburn Says Executive Is
"Strong For" Provision Of
Exchange Bill
BY International News Service

Presidential approval Of the
margin provisions Of the House
securities exchange control bill
was announced today by Chair
man Rayburn D) of Texas. Of
the House Interstate Commerce
Committee.
Representative Rayburn said the
As per cent margin and the dis
cretionary powers given the Fed
eral Reserve Board to raise Or
lower margins will not be altered,
He added:
"The President is strong for
margin requirements being writ
ten into the bill"
The President, he added, made
no specific recommendation for
changes in the bill.
The college Boys" today made
a spirited drive to restore teeth"
to the stock market bill.
Cheered by President Roose-
velt's inclusion of the bill among
the measures he wants Congress
to enact before it adjourns, ad-
vocates of a severe measure went
into action before the Senate
Banking Committee and the
House Interstate Commerce Com
mittee.
Prof. Raymond Moley. editor Of
To-day" and erstwhile dean OF
the brain trust" came here to
organize the effort. His pres
ence was deemed necessary be-
cause Of antagonism Of commit
tee members to Thomas G. Cor
coran and Ben Cohen, youthful
attorneys who drafted much OF
the original bill.
Senators Offended
A number of Senators have ex-
pressed the opinion that the two
college Boys" are 100 arrogant
in imparting their advice.
Restoration of the fixed margins
was the chief objection Of Prof.
Moley's group. The Senate com
mittee had eliminated the definite
margin requirement and provided
that the Presidential Committee
of three, also an amendment to
the original bill, should regulate
margins, which could vary geogra
phically, at the commissions dis
cretion.

NEW YORK, April 16 QN.SO.
Samuel Untermyer today again
called for amendment Of the Sc

Duncan U. Fletcher, chairman of
Senate Banking and Currency
Committee, at the same time
warning against revisions in the
Fletcher-Rayburn market regula-
ton bill that would destroy its ef-
fectiveneSs. Untermyer assailed
the "blighting and misleading
propaganda campaign" against
the market bill which, he asserted
was driving the Senate committee
to the other extreme, compared
with the over rigid measure
brought out originally.

Air Mail Bill Out
Byrns made the surprising
statement that permanent air

ministration program. He said:
'"There is not real necessity
for IL. Temporary air mail bids

Both Representative Rainey
and Representative Byrns insisted
that the House could easily dis
pose of its business in two weeks
and certainly by May Is.
The date Of adjournment, they
said, depends on the Senate.
Speaker Rainey said the Nc
Leod closed bank pay-off bill
was not discussed.
Democratic leaders faced a
series of stiff legislative battles
to get the Presidents program
enacted. First, they appeared
helpless to change one provision
Of the tax bill, to which the
President objected. This was the
three cents a pound tax on pro-
cessing of imported cocoanut and
other vegetable oils. The Presi-
dent objected to imposition Of
this tax on Philippine imports.
The House also voted the levy.
Battle Over Tariff, Air Mail
Administration spokes m e n
spread hints that the President
would veto the entire revenue
bill if this provision remained.
Republican leaders smiled at the
threats, pointing out that no
President in the history of the
country ever vetoed a tax bill.
They added that his veto either
would be over-ridden or Congress
held in session most of the sum-
mer.
The Senate also appeared ready
to rebel on silver legislation. A
group Of Democrats, headed by
Senators Wheeler, Montana, and
Thomas, Oklahoma, demanded
naturalization of silver and a
huge silver purchasing program
be included in the Dies Bill. The
President was reported opposed to
both steps. The outcome was in
doubt.
The Stock Exchange Bill will
furnish fireworks too. The PreSi-
dents advisers were opposed to
the draft, now being written by
the Senate Banking and Currency
Committee, which creates a new
commission to regulate the stock
markets. They demand this power
be divided between the Federal Re-
serve Board and the Federal Trade
Commission. The dispute will be
