today, however, that the union
men are working under an agree
ment by which both sides have
said they will submit to the action
of an arbitration board on the
wage increase.
The union, headed here by j,
H. Goodman, named Charlton
Ogburn, attorney, as its mem
Der of the arbitration committee.
Edmund L. Jones was named to
represent the company.
Decision Is Near
Choice of the third member
has caused some delay, but a
decision is near, Messrs. Ogburn
and Jones said today.
The local union, branch 689
of the Amalgamated Association
of Street and Electric Railway
and Motor Coach Employees, rep
resents more than 80 per cent
of the employed personnel Of
the Transit Company. Mr.. o.
burn today said:
Everything is very amicable
between our union and the
company. There may be some
disgruntIed trainmen and EN-
plOyeS who are impatient be-
cause of the delay in the
arbitration, but so far as the
union is concerned, no action
Of any sort in the way Of
strike is contemplated"
Delay in choosing the third
member of the arbitration board
will mean little to the trainmen,
Ogburn pointed out, since any
action it might take with regard
to a pay raise would be retro
active to March 81.
No Specific Demands
In asking for the new contract,
Mr.. Cockman explained, the
union made no specific demands
with regard to a raise over the
SIS cents an hour at present re-
ceived by the trainmen.
The union asked lot more
money, but did not stipulate the
amount of the increase, setting
forth that it would accept the
decision of the arbitration board,
other considerations to be
ironed out by the arbiters concern
minor changes in working condi-
tons, such as split shifts, but
these are considered as of little
importance beside the wage ques-
ton.
Messrs. Ogburn and Jones
pointed out that much of the de-
Law has been in trying to secure
for a third member of the board
A man who would be neutral and
who would be suitable to both
sides.

GEORGIAN RAPS
NEW DEALERS,
BACKSBONUS
Governor AssaiIs Huge U. S.
Expenditures and Growing
Boards and Bureaus

Governor Eugene Talmadge,
who came north to see the Derby
and to stop off here to make a
vicious attack on the New Deal
and to plead for its defeat at
next years elections, demanded
presidential approval of the SOL
diers' bonus as an added thrust at
President Roosevelt before return
ing to Georgia.
Some observers interpreted his
speech as an offer to head a ticket
Of conservative, or "Old Guard"
Democrats in the next presiden-
tial campaign.
Decries Extravaganza
The Patman immediate-cash-
payment-bonus-bill, the firebrand
against the Administration told a
national radio audience, would i'm
prove business conditions.
Decrying the Federal Govern
ment's huge expenditures and its
constantly increasing number Of
commissions and boards and high
salaries, Governor Talmadge de-
clared:
What is NRAism? A mix
ture of communism, frenZied
finance and wet nursing. But
Americanism is going to win
out"
Mr.. Talmadge called the Capital
0 boom town surprising Miami
during the gala days.
AssaiIs NRA
Mr.. Talmadge advocated this
program instead of the New Deal:
Go back to the Constitution
Of the United States.
abolish all activities of the
Government maintaining and
operating a business.
abolish the NRA immedi-
ately."
If this is done private industry
will boom and in so days half the
people will be off relief rolls, Mr..
Talmadge asserted. He added:
81 call on Americans to re.
turn to the principles of the
Democratic party. Don't let
communism run riot in this
land"
Declaring governmental expense
for 1885 had mounted to the stag
gering total of eight and a half
billion dollars, Mr.. Talmadge OBJ
served:
"Of course it takes money for
bo0n-dOggling."

BONUS ACTION

bill, which would pay the bonus
through a $2,2O1 $4,000 issue Of
United States Treasury notes,
came Us a distinct surprise. 1t
was due to three developments.
The first was a flood of 10000
Geographic demands for senatorial
approval of the Patman plan, in
spired by the Rev. Charles Cough
lin, Detroit radio priest.
The second was an unexpected
speech by Senator William Gibbs
McAdoo 3D. California, a war
time Secretary of the Treasury,
in favor of the Patman plan.
Senator McAdoo denounced critics
of the plan, who called it dan
gerous initiation. He said the
two billion dollars in new cur
rency would not affect adversely
the credit of the Government but
would have a healthy reaction by
keeping another bond issue off
the market and out Of banks.
The third development was the
most important. It was a de-
cision of administration leaders
to support the Patman plan over
the Vinson plan as one which
the President could veto with
greater ease.
Ditch the VinSOn Plan
Twelve of them voted with the
Patmanites to ditch the Vinson
plan, which would finance cash
payments by a bond issue, and
then voted against the Patman
bill on the final roll-call. They
were Senators Robinson. the floor
leader; Harrison, Ashurst, Brown,
Buckley, Connally, Fletcher, CUT
fey, Hayden, Radcliffe, Wagner
and Walsh. AS the Vinson bill
lost to the Patman plan by a
IS to So vote, their votes were
conclusive.
Reports circulated freely on
Capitol Hill that the President
would veto the bill. Senator Rob-
inSon said:
81 am not authorized to speak,
but my information is that the
President will veto the bill. The
vote in the Senate indicated it
would be sustained"
The Senate vote was SIS to 80,
three more than would have been
necessary to sustain veto on the
same roll-call. In the House it
passed by a 318-to-90 vote, so there
would be little fear of a veto being
sustained in the lower branch. A
veto, however, can be sustained
in either branch, since a bill must
be passed by tWo-thirds majoritles
in both House and Senate to be-
come law over a veto.
Provisions of Bill
The Patman bill would pay the
face value of the nations adj
justed service certificates inscash.
The holder of a $1,000 certificate,
unencumbered, would get $1,000.
The holder of a $1,000 certificate,
who borrowed $500 on it, would
receive on the average about
$487. He would be forced to pay
interest on his loan up to o.
tober /, 1881. All interest since
that date would be waived, so
that a veteran, who borrowed
$500 on a $1,000 certificate since
october 1, 1881, would receive
$500. Most of the loans were
made in 1880 and early 1881.
The bill actually would place
1861 million dollars in circula-
ton, including payment Of all
loans made to veterans.

T CCLES HIRES
PRESS AGENT

Departing from a traditional
policy of almost impenetrable
silence, in force for many years,
the Federal Reserve Board today
announced the appointment of a
press agent.
The apparent purpose of Gov.
M. S. Eccles, OF the board, was to
"selr' the Federal Reserve system
to the public.
Mr.. Ecc1es' administration
marks a new phase in the Reserve
system. Other govenors-W. P.
G. Harding, Daniel w. Crissinger,
Roy Young, Eugene Meyer, and
even the late Eugene R. Black,
the first of Mr.. Roosevelt's gov
ernors-were highly circumspect
in their discussions of intra-Re'
serve policy.
Press Conferences Held
Mr.. Eccles established the Sys"
tenn of weekly conferences with
the press for a free discussion Of
matters pending before the Re-
serve Board, much to the con-
sternation of some of the old
members like DR.. Adolph c. Miller
and George r. James.
Operations of the Federal Re-
serve System in the past have
been guarded with extreme Sec
recy. It had been considered an
institution that dealt strictly
with "big business'-with which
the average citizen had nothing
to do.
The new Reserve System, if Mr..
Eccles has his way, will be "close
to the people"
The appointment of the press
Elliott Thurston, for some
time an employe of the Washing
ton Post-was regarded as the
initial move to "popularize" the
reserve board and "sell" it to the
public.
Publicity Costs High
A survey shows that it is cost
ing the Government more than
81 ,00O,O 900 a year for its publicity
stats alone, and that assisting
the various chiefs is small army
of several hundred employees who
turn out hundreds of tons OF
publicity each year.

A new campaign for a balanced

here today as a result of speeches
by Senator Tydings of Maryland
and Lewis Douglas, former direc.
tor of the budget, before the
National Economy League.
Senator Tydings warned against

the banks, which means the
savings of the people, will be
invested in obligations of the

RANDOLPH HITS
At CRITICS Of
CRIME GROUP
Charges Attempt to Discredit
House Committee in Order to
Confuse Issues

Striking back at persons who
have suggested that the special
District crime investigating COM
mittee was improperly motivated
in making its report, Chairman
Jennings Randolph CD of West
Virginia today charged that ef-
forts to discredit his group con-
Stituted an attempt to confuse
the public mind as to the real
issues involved.
In a statement to the House
District Committee, which agreed
to consider the crime committee
report two weeks from today, Rep
resentative Randolph denied that
the recommendations of his com.
mittee had been dictated by Dr.
John r. Fitzpatrick, committee
counsel.
AsSails Critics
1t had been suggested that Dr.
Fitzpatrick was instrumental in
drafting the report which, among
other things, suggested removal
of District Attorney Leslie C. Gar
nett, who had clashed with DR..
Fitzpatrick when the latter was
Assistant District Attorney.
Randolph said in his statement:
statement which have been
widely circulated to the effect
that the report of the special
crime investigating committee
was improperly mOtivated are
false and misleading. AS chair
man of the committee l feel
that it is my duty to Congress
and to people of Washington
to make it clear that there is
no basis in fact for statements
of this nature. Moreover, such
assertions impugn the integrity
and honesty of purpose of a
special committee of the House
of Representatives of the United
States. believe that express
the sentiment of the members
of the crime committee in de-
plOring and resenting state.
ments, the sole purpose of which
is to discredit the committee by
confusing the public mind as to
the real issues involved.
DEFENDS REPORT
81 want to state emphatically
that the report was prepared
under the direction and super.
vision of the chairman who con.
ferred frequently with members
of the committee so that the re-
port would accurately express
the considered judgment of the
majority.
ut was but natural to ex-
pect an attack upon the COM
mittee's findings from quarters
adversely affected. Such an at
tack would be more impressive
were it not predicated on the
false contention that this COM
mittee of Congress had been
imposed upon.
"In order to believe the base
less statements that the report
was dictated by an attache Of
the committee, it would be
necessary first to believe that
every member of this committee
abdicated his or her solemn OBJ
legation. I cannot believe that
such an offensive suggestion will
be given credence by our col
leagues in Congress and do not
believe that it will be taken seri-
ousIy by the people of Wash
ingtOn in whose behalf the COM
mittee has labOred."
