ECCLES PLEADS
FOR BANK BILL
Reform Act Will Not Make
Reserve System Political
Football, He Says.

~ Wffff FFfka
WASHINGTON. May lO.-Gov.
Mariner S. Eccles Of the Federal
Reserve Board told Senate bank
ing committee this afternoon that
the Administrations bank reform
bill would make the reserve system
neither a football of party poll
tics nor an engine of initiation"
He urged the Senate to follow the
action Of the House. which yester-
day passed the bill, oil to ITO.
Gov. Eccles appeared before a
subcommittee headed by Senator
Carter Glass ID. Va. who op-
posed Gov. EccleS' nomination and
who also has opposed features Of the
bill
The proposals made in this bill
are definite and limited in scope
and arise out of the experience of
the last % years" Mr.. Eccles said.
They are not revolutionary: they
do not alter the fundamental char
acter Of the Federal Reserve System
or the regional nature of its organ
ization. and they do not. as has been
asserted by critics. make the Federal
Reserve System a football of parry
politics or an engine of imitation"
Mr.. Eccles said that it had long
been recognized that matters of
national credit and monetary policy
should be under public control"

Lost Hope of Emerging
From Polar Hut Alive,
Admiral Byrd ConfideS
Explorer Never Thought He
Would Get Out Safely, He
Tells Writers.

ABOARD S. S. BEAR. OF OAK
LAND, May l0-(By Wireless to
United Press Rear Admiral Rich
ard E Byrd, steaming up the Po-
tomac on a triumphant return from
fresh explorations near the South
Pole, revealed this afternoon that
several times during his lone vigil
at an isolated advance base he
thought he would never get out
alive.
During those four and one-half
months alone IN a W-burled hut,
Admiral Byrd said. Il got a new out
look on life and realized that many
things about Our civilization are sU-
perficial I thought several times l
wasn't coming out alive"
Admiral Byrd went to the isolated
advance base to make meteorological
observations during the long Ant
arctic night Fumes from a heater
made him dangerously i'll. but he de-
clined to imperil lives of his men
at the Little America base by call
ing for aid by radio
Read IS Books
Today, dressed in an admiral's
uniform and putting a pipe on the
deck of the Bear, the explorer ap-
peared to have recovered fully from
his narrowing experience.
II read S5 books during my stay
alone at the advance base" he said.
They included everything from de-
tective stories to philosophy books. 3"
The Bear of Oakland. a Cougar
old ice breaker. was making its way
slowly up the Potomac to Washing
ton Navy Yard, where President
Roosevelt, Admiral Byrd's mother
and others awaited to greet the re-
turning expedition late today.
What's Doing?" He Asks
whats doing in this country?"
Admiral Byrd asked newspaper men
who boarded the ship at Quantico,
Va.
I'VE heard about Huey Long even
at the South Pole. 1 guess he is
everywhere. The things we found in
Antarctica had nothing to do with
the price of potatoes, but they add
ed greatly to our knowledge Of the
world.
THE most important scientific
he said was that we
found there are millions more of
meteors bombarding through the air
than had been realized. We could
see them down there because the
atmosphere was so clear"

Wabash Rise Continues;
Rains Add to Crop Loss

The Wabash River at Vincennes
rose only an inch since midnight,
but it was expected 10 rise more.
and as it did so the water seeped
higher in the fields instead Of slowly
receding as it was yesterday. At
Decker the water was 1877 feet early
today, and rising.
The water has crept to the very
back yard Of Vincennes and IS with
in two or three feet of some homes
on the southern-most outskirts Of
the city. There appears TO be no
property damage, however.
Showers are forecast for tomorrow
again, and while they probably will
be light. they also will have their
slight effect on the food crest. AT
least they again will postpone the
corn planting.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1935-05-10

With scattered rains upstate, the
Wabash river and smaller streams
downstate continued today to rise
slowly and creep into new fields to
do crop damage
The crest of the food that has
caused thousands of dollars worth
Of farm damage had been expected
for many hours and the water now
probably would be of the lowland
fields if weather had remained fair
the last two days.
Although that would not have
saved the winter wheat that has
been inundated, and the hay, 1t
would have added a few days TO the
corn crop by allowing reworking
and planting of fields sooner. Corn
is dangerously late and bound to
be later in lowla1d areas

LONDON. May 10.-Abyssinia and
Italy seemed preparing for big scale
war today in the ancient country
between the Italian East African
colonies and the mountain capital
of Abyssinia, Adds Ababa.
Emperor Halle Selassie of Abyss
sinia, in an interview with the Adds
Ababa correspondent of the London
Daily Telegraph, announced that he
would order general mobilization if
Italy continued its war preparations.
Ethiopia (AbySsinia) will never
accept a state of unofficial war such
as prevailed when Japan carried
out its operations in Manchoukuo
We will Immediately resist.
Il still hope that the League OF
Nations Council at its meeting May
20 will move definitely toward a
peaceful solution of our frontier
dispute with Italy. But if not, and
if Italy carries its military prepare =
tiOns farther, then we must mo-
billie"
Italian Speech Protested
A United Press dispatch from
Adds Ababa said that the govern
ment protested strongly to the Ital-
ian minister against speech made
in the Chamber of Deputies at
Rome Tuesday by Michele Lessona
Italian Undersecretary of Colonies.
Lessona charged Ethiopia with
oppression of populations of various
tribes. significantly said that Italy
intended to force respect for its
Moslem subjects against the Chris
tians of AbysSinia, and held that
Europe's "civilizing mission" was IN
volved in its dispute
Halle Selassie, protesting to Italy
against this speech, said that Abys
sinia was not an anarchical ma
ton and had not infringed the Ital-
IAN AbysSinian treaty of friendship.
He protested particularly the
charges that the Gala, Somali and
Sidsmo peoples had been barbar
ously treated.
Italy yesterday made representa-
tons to unnamed governments
against supplying Abyssinia with
arms, munitions and airplanes. I'm
official sources intlmated that the
government would take a serious
view of continuance of the flow of
war supplies
Arms Sales Under Fire
The London Daily Express re-
ported rs from its Brussels CORE
spondent that Belgium was one of
the countries to which Italy pro-
tested.
Only this week. Italy added 284 900
men to its armed forces-a regular
division. $4,000; two divisions of Fss-
cists. 10000; four special Fascists,
100000; the army class of 1918,
100000 and a native division in the
colonies. $4,000. Plans are being
made to mobilize 2 second native
division of $4,000.
Italy has under arms 10000 ordi-
nary soldiers. 100000 Fascist militia
and $4,000 carabiniers.
The Rome correspondent of the
United Press revealed that Italy now
has under arms in its colonies of
Eritrea and Somaliland 100000 men.
