 London, March - (UR- - Europe today viewed the close or President Roosevelt's first year in office with mixed emotions. but a predominant feelin of admiration for his courage and his twelve month accomplishments.
 The fears and some bitterness aroused over his international finan- cial policies had been dissipated in nearly all quarters, an din some Of the hitherto conservative capitals statesmen were swinging towards a popular demand for adoption of a new deal" for Europe.
 MT Roosevelt's monetary policies, climaxed by his abandonment or the gold standard and depreciation of the dollar. aroused many orth- dox bankers and statesmen to loud cries of anguish and the prediction that his program meant not only ruination for America but for Eu- rope as well. But the year has pass ed, an dtoday they were beginning to admit the existence of a brighter world outlook.

 The presidents reciprocal tariff message asked early action. Speak, CT of the House Henry T. Rainey, democrat, Illinois, said house action next week was possible.
 The vital new link in the admin istration's recovery program is de- signed to find foreign markets for surpluses by empowering the pres ident to make trade agreements with foreign nations and to that end raise or lower by 50 per cent tariff duties.
 Several governme ental agencies have been studying possible for eign markets for American pro- ducts for some time, and it was believed that if given that grant of power the president would not de- lay long before putting it into use.

 France, which more than any other nation feared the results of Americas abandonment of the gold standard, has apparently been cap- tured by the very drama of Am erica's recovery, and now that fears for the franc appear to have been allayed, and it is realized that the Roosevelt plan does not contem- plate driving France off the gold standard. the president has achiev- ed not only respect but a spirit of envious emulation. The wide pow CTS granted Premier Doumergue, and his solid control over the French parliament, and viewed as being purely parallel endeavor to the Roosevelt political scheme.

 2. Prevention of industrial or labor dictation against the public interest.
 8. Elimination of chiseling through compliance.
 4. Insurance of the statutory rights of labor.
 5. Maximum contribution by MIRA to the solution of the pur- chasing power and unemployment problem.
 Johnson explains that MIRA is not charged alone with re-employ- ing the jobless millions. But he is not satisfied with MIRA employ ment and is pledged to propose next week at a general conference of code authorities that the work week be further reduced and hour- ly wages increased. MT Roosevelt will open next weeks conference with a review of objectives and a plan to carry on.
 The budget dispute stirring Cap- itol Hill revolves around veterans and federal employees. MT Roose- welt sought to quell veterans up- roar with compromise which added $21,O00,000 annually to the treasury burden by restoring few benefits. That was not enough. The senate raised the ante to at least s11s.253.Ooo and restored pay to federal efnployes to the extent of s152.775,00O. Acceptance by the houes of this legislation would draw a presidential veto.
 The first year ends with MT Roosevelt's request for reciprocal trade agreement authority and sus- gesting for Philippine independence before congress. All major legis- lative proposals except a possible message on war debts now have been submitted. Thus this session of congress enters the home stretch, having received from the White House about all the urgent recommendations likely to be sub mitted this var.

LOS ANGELES, May 7. U.1 -
Jubilant after their surprising
50 % IS l-3 victory over Stan
ford's track and field team Satur-
day. the University Of Southern
California Trojans trained their
ambitions today on the self-same
opponents in hope of trouncing
them again in the Fresno relays

Dean Cromwell hopes to add in
suit to injury by combing a quar-
tet of sprinters who will conquer
Stanford's quartet in the mile relay
at Fresno. Fitch, Tompkins, Nc
Carthy and Ablowich likely will
compose Troy's team. With Read
running last Saturday instead of
Ablowich, Southern California trav-
eled the distance in 3:l4.4, approxi-
mately two seconds shy of the
Fresno record now held by STAN
ford. Cromwell believes those two
seconds can be erased by Ablo-
wichs insertion in the lineup.
Troy's victory over Stanford Sat-
urday was far more impressive than
her most jealous cohorts had hoped
for. Outstanding Southern Cali
fornia upSets were registered in the
high hurdles and the broad jump,
the Trojans sweeping the latter
