CONSIDERABLY mutilated, the ad-
~ ministration's S4,SS0,0O0,o 900 work
relief bill finally got through the senate
by a vote of 6S to 16, and was returned
to the house later, to be adjusted In
conference. The senators accepted an
amendment by Senator Thomas of Okla
homa for a currency expansion of 1915,
OOO,0 900 through the issuance of silver
certificates at the $1.29 an ounce none
tary value of the treasury's silver
stocks instead Of the present practice
of using the purchase value OF the sill
yer.
Later the Thomas amendment was
stricken ont after congressional con-
ferees had ieadlocked for forty-eight
hours. Members of the silver bloc as
serted they would not stand In the
measures path, although Thomas had
declared he would flibuster against
any attempts to strike out the amend
ment. Besides eliminating the silver
imitation plan, the conference modified
the Russell labor compromise amend.
ment to provide that the President
shall pre-determine the rate of wages
on public buildings to be constructed,
and this rate will be submitted to con-
tractors for bids. An amendment pro-
viding that all officers and employees
receiving more than $1,000 a year will
have to be appointed by the President
and confirmed by the senate was modi
fed. 1t now provides that any new
administrator or member of any CEN
trail board will be appointed by the
President with the consent of the sen
ate.
Among the senate changes approved
were the ALLEGATION of the fund to
eight general types of projects; con-
~tinuation of the federal relief admin
istration one year; extension of the
Civilian Conservation corps two years
from March 81; continuation Of PWA

sembly had cenSured Japanese aggres-
sion in Manchuria. She has advised
other powers that she considers her
self guardian of peace in eastern Asia,
and that outside assistance Is neither
desired nor invited. In addition. japan
has embarked on an armament policy
marked by dennnciation of the Wash
ington naval treaty, demands for naval
parity with Great Britain and the
United States, and armed forces "suf.
icient to defend, but inadequate to at
tack"
With considerable ceremony the
Soviet government transferred to ia
pan full ownership of the Chinese
Eastern railway and thus ceased to be
an opposing factor In the Japanese
occupation of Manchuria. In the Off
cial residence Of Foreign Minister
Koki Hirota In Tokyo the sale agree
ment and general protocol were signed
and the bargain was clinched by the
payment by Japan of 23,333,000 yen to
the Soviet ambassador. The yen is
currently quoted at about 27.S cents.
Japan's vigorous reply to British pro-
tests over the alleged M~anchukuoan
oil monopoly reflects development of
the Asia for Asiatics" plan an
nounced some time ago. Japan denied
that treaty provisions have been VIC
lated by the so-called monopoly. With
the deal for the Soviet Russia interest
in the Chinese Eastern railroad com.
pleted and Japan's withdrawal from
the League Of Nations. japanese pene-
tration of Asia is expected to 20 for
ward under the strong leadership of
koki HirOta, foreign minister. Devel-
opments during the hex few months
will be highly important. The tense
European situation will keep the west.

curity In both the east and the west.
Japan insists she will act alone, and
rumors Of a military alliance with
Germany were secuted. The Japanese

prove a more effective way Of dealing
with overproduction than AAA's policy
of taxing commodities for acreage

said MIR. Hoover, has today the great
est responsibility that has come to 1t
since the days Of Abraham Lincoln-to
raise the standard in defense of funda-
mental American principles: and he
called for a rejnvenated and vigorous
Republican organization.
Here are some Of the things Mr.. Hoo
yer said in arralgning the present ad-
miniStration.
THE most solemn government obli-
cations have been r~epudiated.
''The nation Is faced with the great
est debt ever known to our country.
"The currency has been rendered un
certain.
"The government has been central
lied under an enormous bureaucracy
in Washington small business
men have been disabled and crushed.
Glass conflicts have been created and
embittered.
More people are dependent upon the
government for relief than ever before.
Recovery is still delayed"
Leaders of the regular Republicans In
Washington were quick to declare their
approval Of Mr.. Hoover's attack on
the New Deal. Most Of them secuted
the idea that he was tentatively look
ing toward another nomination, but
the general impression was that he was
-
his party In fact as well as In name.
