|M0RR0 CASTLE
NOT FOR NAVY

The charred hulk of the MORO
Castle is of no value to the Navy.
This was officially decided by
Secretary Claude A. Swanson to-
day following receipt of a report
from Admiral George c. Day,
president of the Board OF 1nspec-
ton and Survey, which has made
a lengthy inspection of the burned
vessel to determine if it could be
converted into naval auxiliary
vessel.
The ruling of the secretary puts
the fate of the fire-razed liner in
the hands of the War Depart
ment, which will decide the final
disposition of the ship.
No details of the boards find
ings were made public, but it was
indicated by Secretary Swanson
that the ship could not be made
seaworthy without expenditure Of
an enormous sum of money.
The Moro Castle, now tied up
in New York Harbor, has been
technically in the hands of the
Rivers and Harbors Board since
it was beached at Asbury Park,
N. j., following the fire aboard
it several months ago.

PRESIDENT |AL
PICNIC WINDY

The first Presidential picnic of

"quite windy in spots" with the
result that everybody was chas-

tended by the President and her
self; their son-in-law and daugh'

TAX RETURNS
WITHHELD BY
TREASURY
Morgenthau Keeps Income
Reports Pending Action on
"Pink Slip" Repeal

AS the Senate awaits action on
the pink slip" provision of the
income tax law, scores Of In.
quiries are pouring into the
Treasury Department asking
whether information on incomes
will be made public.
The source of the inquiries was
not made public.
Secretary Morgenthau, how
ever, is refusing for the time being
to make any tax returns public.
Meanwhile favorable action on
the bill to repeal the pink slip
feature is expected to be taken
soon by the Senate.
The bill already has passed the
House and has been reported "a
vorably by the Senate Finance
Committee. 1t is slated for Sem
ate consideration as soon as Pres
ident Roosevelt's 1880 million dol.
lar work relief bill is disposed Of.
Pink slip action may start this
week, with a small bloc slated to
make an extended fight against
repeal.
Faced with knowledge that the
pink slip is used for illegal pur-
poses by racketeers, blackmailers
and even kidnapers, the Senate is
believed to be overwhelmingly in
favor of repeal.

Mrs. Roosevelt
Shys at Writing
School ESSAYS

There are lots of little boys
and girls who think that if Mrs.
Roosevelt does their homework
for them they will get much
better marks in school.
Among the many letters which
the Presidents wife receives,
she revealed today, are a great
number from children asking
her to help them with their
work.
Some of them, for instance,
have asked her to write essays
for them, stating they felt sure
that, if she wrote them, they
would win prizes offered for the
best essay.
Mrs. Roosevelt said she an.
swers that, if they do their work
themselves, they will get more
out of their lessons.

NEW DEAL GIVES
DARROW CHILL

Clarence Darrow, the Chicago
iconoclast, had a dash of New
Deal cold water thrown upon his
furrowed brow today.
Arriving in washington to tes-
tify before the Senate Finance
Committee investigating NRA
policies before drafting a new
act. he sat in his suite in the
Willard Hotel and bemoaned the
fact that he must wait around
towr. until notified the commit
tee is ready for his testimony.
The veteran warrior was strik-
ingly reticent when reporters
crowded around him for his
views. The man whose caustic
utterances have swayed juries and
provoked applause and criticism
was ''just too busy" when re-
porters stormed his room. He
shocked his audience by asking:
"Who is S. Clay Williams?"
He had been asked what he
thought about the NRA in gen.
eral, and in particularly about Mr..
Williams, retiring chairman or
the MIRA board. His only answer
was the laconic query.
No advice for young men was
forthcoming, no speeches and no
panaceas were offered. Mr.. Dar-
row was in meditative mood. He
was only thinking about what he
is going to say when he appears
before the Senate Committee.
