BONUS LEADERS
CLAIM HOUSE
BY z To |
Measure to Pass Monday by
Big Majority; Senate Ex-
peCted to Kill Bill
By international News Service


A majority of almost two to one
for the 2,400 million dollar sol
diers bonus bill in the House on
Monday was claimed by hackers
of the measure after a check-up
today.
While plans were being made
for a showdown on the bonus
issue, Democratic leaders renewed
their efforts to heal the break
with the White House on the vet
erans economy and Federal pay
cut issues.
Hard Job For Leaders
The two veterans issues gave
leaders their hardest task of the
session to hold the heavily Demo
cratic House in line for the Presi-
dents program.
With President Roosevelt threat
ening to veto both the bonus and
the veterans economy modifica-
tions, House leaders adopted q
hands-off policy on the bonus.
They expect the Senate to stop
the bill.
Bond Issue Proposed
While Representative Altman
CDO of Texas, declared bonus ad-
vocates would fight for payment
of the adjusted certificates with
newly issued money, counter ef-
forts were under way for payment
by bond issue.

SHARES
SELL FREELY

NEW YORK, March 10 GN.S).
A break in the liquor shares run
ming to more than 2 points un.
settled the stock market today.
The liquor group was sold
freely following the decision Of
the Administration to permit a
flood of imports in a new drive
to cut domestic prices. American
Commercial Alcohol, National
Distillers, Commercial Solvents
and Schenley led the decline.
Aviation shares also were de-
pressed by the prospect of whole"
sale reorganizations to qualify
for the Presidents plans to re-
turn the air mail to private
companies. United Aircraft broke
a point before any support was
encountered.
Tie rest of the list drifted
lower in sympathy. Pressure on
the main body of stocks was
light, however, and mild rallying
tendencies developed at the end
Of the first hour, with most Of
the losses being recovered.
Mining shares showed better
resistance than most other issues.
Persistent rumors regarding the
Administrations purported plans
regarding gold and silver helped
maintain the mines around the
previous closing levels.

to the witness stand in a surprise
move, Harry Pierpont, accused
trigger man" for the notorious
Dillinger gang, today asserted his
innocence of the first-degree mur-
der of Sheriff Jess L. Sarber.
Sheriff Sarber was shot and
killed in a raid on the Allen
county jail last October IL by q
gang Of Dillinger mobsmen to re-
lease their chieftain, John Dill
linger, held as a bank robber sus-
pect.
Asserting that Dillinger, fugi-
tive desperado, has only few

if he plans to rescue Pierpont, his
former chief lieutenant, Brig. Gen.
Harold M. Bush, of the Ohio Ma
tional Guard, today established
two additional machine gun nests

belief that the bank robber and
killer, having enlisted following,
was headed for an outlying hide
out preparatory to new outbreak

PUBLIC HEARING
SCHEDULED ON
M'LEOD BILL
Growing Interest in Deposit
Relief Plan Brings Call for
Conference March 19

Growing interest in passage this
session of the Mcleod bank relief
bill today led Representative Ann
ing s. Prall (D0, of New York,
chairman Of the House Banking
and Currency RFC subcommittee,
to set a public hearing on the
bill for March 10.
One hearing already has been
held on the measure, at which
several Republican and Demo
cratic leaders appeared in it's sup
port with a score of voluntary
witnesses from Detroit, Philadel-
phia and New York.
GasQue Backs Plan
Frozen bank assets throughout
the country are certain to in
crease in value, rapidly, in the
opinion of Representative Allard
H. Gasque Cd of South Carolina.
That is why he heartily en-
dorseS today passage Of the Nc
Leod bill, which authorizes the
RFC to purchase all assets Of
closed banks and reimburse de.
positorS.
The greatest benefit Of such
a step, he says, would be a re-
turn of confidence throughout
the country on the part Of b.. TX
depositors who, through no fault
Of their own, lost their life say
ings by reposing confidence in
national and State banks when
the rest of the nations financial
structure was crumbling.
Higher Values Seen
Explaining his position, he
says:
ut is true that real estate
and property values are down,
but they are coming back and
for one don't believe the Gov
ernment will lose money by
purchasing such assets with
RFC funds. On the contrary
am confident the RFC will
even make money by the trans
action.
II am very much in favor of
the Mcleod measure because I
believe primarily it will restore
national confidence in the Gov
ernment and in our banking
system. am so sure of 1t
plan to speak in behalf Of the
bill on the floor Of the House
ut the first opportunity.
Purchase Of these frozen
assets is one of our best ways
out Of the depression especially
because of its psychological ef-
feet upon depOsitOrS now with
out faith or confidence. Restore
that confidence and Land values
will come back fast.
''Why, within my own State
(SOuth CarOlina) we have about
so State banks closed"
Mr.. Gasque is a veteran legis-
lator, now serving his sixth con-
secutive Congress. He started life
close to the soil, being able to
attend school only three or four
months yearly until the age of 18.
Through his own initiative he
was graduated from the Univer-
sity of South Carolina in 1901
and served his country as Superin-
tendent of schools for 20 years
prior to election to the Sixty
eighth Congress.

''IS there any reason why we

ing?"
Dickinson said the purpose Of
the bill is primarily to peg Amer
ican exports at their present
level by preventing foreign ma
tions from raising tariffs.
He said the President might
agree not to raise the tariff on
certain industries providing for
eign countries would allow their

The President might lower the

high duty on the ground that
they might be used as substitutes

War the Topic
His curiosity covers the world.
But Of all the countries he is
most interested in the United
States and Russia.
War was our topic, but the
NRA and the planned national
economy Of the Soviet Union took
up most Of our conversation.
Beside us on q huge desk lay
snnumerable paper cutters, curl
Gus pens and pencils, family
mementoes Of generations Of

'"There are two mighty forces

''The great thing to do is by

The King paused. About all

he had thought much and felt
deeply.
"NOw the most interesting
experiment that is being made

KEYNES HAD SAME VIEW
I remarked that John Keynes,

had put it a little more on the

If the NRA failed it would mean
the loss of the only perceptible
hope that the capitalist world
