in June. 1893, to put into effect MIRA = a "Baruch plan." George N. Peek, another Baruch man, sponsored and at first adminis- tered AAA crop control also g Baruck plan. There are stories that Baruch combed the candi- dates in 1882 looking for a states man who would sponsor MIRA and AAA from the White House. It is believed both plans were rejected by MT Hoover. There was some thought of Newton D. Baker, a democrat. Baruch, for a time, was among the "stop Roosevelt" pre-convention campaigners.
 Baruch is wealthy. He entered politics during the Wilson admin istration as chairman of the war industries board, forerunner of MIRA. He backed McAdoo against Smith in the 1924 democratic con- vention and supported Smith against Hoover in 1928, Bar uch> remained after the Wilson administration as commuter-ad- wiser to every president = Hard ing, Coolidge, Hoover. and now, Roosevelt.

 Unexpectedly, the bill gained
 considerable favor in the house,
 which was regarded as the only | stumbling block to it's passage. Several oId-timers were certain it would pass with an outstanding
 majority.
 Senate passage was believed | certain.
 The house, adjourning after less than an hour, passed a bill which l shifted support of paupers to any l arrangements the adjoining town i, assumes responsibility. !. The senate tossed out a horse
 racing bill, the features of which were incorporated in the judici- ary's favorable report. It also approved batch of exc cutive nominations.
 They included appointment ot Frederick M. Salmon, Westport, E. Kent Hubbard, Middletown, Alton T. Minor, New London, and Will liam c. Cheney, Manchester. to the board of pardons for four years. A brief debate arose over an un- favorable report in the senate on the proposed Glastonbury jail farm bill, which was recommited to the | judiciary.
 The argument centered over the estimated cost of the farm, which ranged from $3S,00O to $20O,OO0. The farm was recommended to re- place the county jail system. House bills passed included two to include reduction mortgages in the business of building and loan associations and incorporate full income shares.
 Two bills, starred for action, and providing three-fourths of the state police expenses be born by the highway fund, and increasing the state police force from 125 to 175, were shunted to the foot of the calendar on motion of Majority Leader Hickey.
 Favorable reports were received amending the charter of New Brit ain to provide citizens may be heard att council meetings and granting a refund of taxes on wrongful assessments. Another New Britain bill, to
 make public records of the board of relief, was received on a favor able report and tabled. Similar action was taken on a favorable report on bil Ito trans fer the tax books Of Norwalk to the tax commissioner.
 Bills rejected by the house pro- vided tax collectors be permitted to furnish their own bond after being rejected by two bonding companies, and making imperative the courts legitimize the issues of void and voidable marriages. The senate referred four nom-
 nations to the committee on execu- tive nominations, all to the board
 of trustees of the Connecticut
 School for Boys at Meriden. They
 were George I. Allen, Middletown;
 Ernest s. Fuller, Somers; Arcbi-
 bald Mcdonald, Putnam, and Rob-
 ert G. Church, Meriden.
 The bill, restricting federal ac- quisition of land for public projects
 over which legislators engaged in
 stormy debate last week, was re- committed to the judiciary com
 mittee to clarify its terms.
 New Britain petitions. similar to
 those received in the house, were
 referred to the committee on cit
 ies and boroughs.
 A favorable report was received
 on Middletown bill relative to
 the procedure for paying municipal bills and passed.

and reduction of the annual cost of government to $3,00O,O00,000. He opposed all so-called currency in- flation schemes.
 "Delay in balancing the budget is trifling with disaster" he said. with the budget balanced we can approach other problems with more assurance of success. With out it, all must fail"
 Father Coughlin's Ideals Father Coughlin, meantime, has advocated currency expansion, abandonment of the gold standard, federal spending for relief and the creation of jobs - the exact op- posite of Baruch's fiscal program. True, the priest offers many pro- jects rejected by the administra- tion.
 But Mir Roosevelt abandoned gold The President did not balance the budget but is moving the na- tional debt by billion dollar leaps toward a new forecast maximum of $34, ,OOO, 900, O,000. Father Coughlir' and Baruch might find agreement in provision against human suffer- ing and aids for the liquidation of debt. ~
 In his Monday night broadcast. the priest remarked that within "A hours of his latest plea for debt retirement methods which would reduce annual interest charges, the administration announced a plan to save SIS, 900 by his plan. It involves use of $674, 100000 of gold seizure profit to, retire called bonds.
 Baruch opposed the Roosevelt p1anyto abandon thesgold standard. but has not joined the. subsequent business clamor for dollar stabili- zation.. His advice, however, is assum ed still to be directed toward a ba1apced budget. { Baruch Once Opposed President

(Continued from Page 1.) utilities have endeavored honestly to inform investors and the general public as to the disastrous effects of this legislation.
 "We will not be deterred from our purpose in submitting to the congressional committees the facts involved in their true light, con- vinced in the belief that in due time the justice of our opposition will prevail"
 Dr Hugh s. Magill, president of the American Federation of Utility Investors, said he was "astonished" at the presidents message. "The president makes a very plausible argument in support of the reguls ton of holding companies with which practically everyone will agree" he said. However, the real effect of his message is to ad- voOate passage of the Rayburn- Wheeler bill which is one of the most autocratic and destructive measures ever introduced in con- gress.
 Bill Called Radical
 'The Rayburn Wheeler bill, ' Magill said, lis not a regulatory measure but the autocratics as- sumption of federal domination and for the wrecking of the utility industry in utter disregard of the constitution and the rights of the several states"
 While MT Roosevelt's message was greeted by applause from the democratic side of the house and with smiles in the senate, it did not assure passage of the Rayburn- Wheeler bill, which many con- gressmen believe too drastic. These members, believe strict regulation of holding companies rather than their annihilation is the better course.
 The Rayburn-W Wheeler bill now provides that holding companies, except in a few instances, must go out of business by 1940. While most congressman apparently held no brief for holding companies themselves. considerable fear has been expressed for investors should the bill be enacted as written.
 Attacked Propaganda
 MT Roosevelt attacked the prop aganda campaign being conducted by Utilities which have loaded congressional mail bags with pro- tests against the Rayburn- Wheeler bill for weeks. He said the com paniesN were using investors money to make the investor believe that the efforts of the government to protect him are designed to de- fraud him." He termed holding

study of the facts of the industry he said.
 He noted that steel prices under the code increased from depres- sion low of $41.96 Q ton to $47.50, against high of $50.45 in boom days.
 At the same time, he argued, payrolls increased from $13,000,O to $42,000.0O0, volume from 26 per cent to capacity to a high of 60 per cent and a present rate of about 45 per cent, while the week ly wage rose from $10.52 a week to '$19.12 week.
 When the code was formed, the witness added, turning to attacks because the Pittsburg plus price system continued under MIRA, the question was one of putting 75,000 men to work or squabbling over the Pittsburg plus system which had been fought over for 10 years without any decisive ruling on its legality.
 7 "The MIRA feels that economical ly a more sound passing system might be advised" Richberg said. He noted that in some ways it was related to the FOB. system of the automobile industry.
 In answer to questions by Sen William H. King, D., Utah, Rich berg offered to analyze complaints received by any senator.
 T win show you that complaints in most instances come 90 per cent from chiselers who won't do busi- ness on proper terms and sweat shop operators who have been breaking down wages" he said.
 That will always happen when you attempt to establish decent honest methods in business.

Early this afternoon it was pre- dicted that the overwhelming rel publican membership of the com mittee -on constitutional amend ments (House) would result in un- favorable reports being returned on two bills of Rep John D. Thoms of Waterbury amending the state constitution. One would change the present amendment which allows a gubernatorial veto to be overruled by a majority vote and make necessary a two-thirds vote. The other would give to the gov ernor. authority to nominate all judges of the minor courts in the state. Although supported by the bar. of the state it is expected that republican sentiment will result in an unfavorable report.
