SUGAR BEET DRIVE
MAPPED IN OMAHA
U. S. Economists and Professors
Plan for 1885 Campaign to
Control Production.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
OMAHA. Nebr., January 26.-Gov-
ernment economists and representa-
tives of 27 companies manufacturing
beet sugar In the United States from
Ohio to the Pacific Coast gathered
here yesterday to discuss tentative
rules governing the sugar campaign
for 1885.
The Government economists will re-
port soon to John E. Dalton, chief
of the sugar section of the Agriculture
Adjustment Administration, who will
take final action.
Professors made little objection to
the proposed rules, although they ex-
pressed the desire to compete for de-
sirable acreage in other districts than
their own while the proposed Govern
ment regulations hedged this poSSibil-
1ty closely.
No date for signing contracts has
been set, but beet raiserS probably will
be asked to come to agreement with
professors early in February.
The hearing was conducted under
the Jones-Costigan act providing a
total marketing quota of 1,550,000
short tons raw value sugar allotted to
professors so each is prevented from
selling in excess of his allotment. The
grower accepts voluntarily and re-
ceiveS regular payments from the pro-
cessor and benefit payments in such
amount as will bring the total up to
the pre-war purchasing value of his
beets.

CUT IN ELECTRIC
RATES INDICATED
Hearing Tomorrow to Slate
Adjustments Possible
Under Firms Profits.

Rates Of the Potomac Electric
Power Co. will be reduced somewhat
as result of public hearing to be
held tomorrow at the District Build
ing on the annual adjustment Of
charges under the sliding scale rule,
according to advanced estimates.
At that time detailed figures will
be produced to show the profits of
the corporation during the past year.
Under the consent decree, subscribed
to by the Public Utilities Commission
and the power company, certain por-
tions of the excess profits of the COM
pany each year are set aside for rate
reductions.
The Utilities Commission recently
stated formally there would be some
reduction again this year, but indi-
Gated it would be smaller than in
some past years. There has been a
cut in rates each year since the sliding
scale agreement was entered into in
1924.
That agreement, consented to by the
District Supreme Court. was the re-
suit of a long controversy over dispo-
sition of an impounded fund of ap-
proximately S6,000,000 accrued during
sion for reduction in rates.

Change to Take Effect on
Some Date in Future
Is Expected.
COMPROMISE MAY GUST
RETROACTIVE FEATURE
Court Discussion interruption for
Deficiency Measure Tomorrow
Afternoon Is Seen.

Favorable action by the Senate
within a few days on restoration of
the remaining per cent of the Gov
ernment pay cut appeared likely last
night, but it was reliably reported
the proposal probably will be modified
to take effect on some date in the
near future instead of being made
retroactive to January l.
One suggestion said to be under
consideration is that the restoration
take place on April /. While it was
not certain last night what date would
be agreed upon, the general impress
sion prevailed at the Capitol that some
compromise would be effected to elimi-
nate the retroactive feature.
Court Remains Business.
Although the World Court is still
the pending business in he Senate,
the expectation is that there will be
an opportunity tomorrow afternoon to
turn temporarily to the consideration
of the deficiency measure to which
the pay amendment is to be offered.
Senator McCarran. Democrat. of
Nevada, who introduced the pay res
toration amendment to take effect as
of January l, refrained yesterday from
making any comment on the reports
of a probable change in the effective
date. 1t is believed, however, he is
content with the situation.
ha 70
ton amendment it would go back to
the House, which could either act on
it directly or submit it to conference.
It is believed the prospect for final
enactment of the proposal into law
would be brighter if the reported COM
promise changing the date, material
ICES, than would be the case if it
contained the retroactive feature.
Advance Notice Filed.
Although Senator McCarran sew
eral days ago filed the advance notice
that would be required to suspend the
rules for consideration of his pay res
toration amendment, he stated at the
time he did not believe that course
would be necessary. There have been
no indications that point of order
would be raised to necessitate sus-
pension of the rules. Senator Adams,
Democrat, of Colorado. in charge of
the deficiency measure, has indicated
he will not interpose a point of order.
The plan to seek consideration of
the deficiency resolution tomorrow
afternoon is based on belief it can
be disposed of quickly and sent back
expenses needed Immediately by sew
eral Government agencies, including
some additional funds for the COM
mission settling the boundary between
the District and Virginia.

The Senate District Committee will
resume consideration of the nomina-
ton of Riley Elgen for another term
on the Public Utilities Commission

time this week. Chairman King said
yesterday. Senator King said Elgen
would be invited to appear before the
committee at that time.

US. MAY AID D. c.
INQUIRY OF CRIME
Cummings Considers Plea
to Lend Agents for
City Probe.

The Department of Justice notified
Chairman Randolph of the Special
Crime Investigating Committee of the
House yesterday that serious consider
alton is being given his request for
several agents to aid in the inquiry
into conditions in the District
The committee will begin its hear
ings tomorrow at 1890 am. but be-
fore that time, Randolph was told,
Attorney General Cummings will de-
eide whether the Justice Department
can spare an agent or two to serve as
investigators.
Justice Aid Sought.
Randolph sought Department Of
Justice assistance to save the COM
mittee the expense of employing two
private investigators. He feels. too,
that the authority and special train
ing of the Government agents would
enable them to produce more evi-
dence than could be gathered by pri-
vate detectives.
Commissioner Melvin c. Hazen, who
has supervision over the Police De-
partment, and Police Supt. Ernest w.
Brown have been called as the first
witnesses. Next Randolph plans to
summon Inspector L. I. H. Edwards,
assistant superintendent and person.
mel officer, and Inspector Frank S.
w. Burke, chief of detectives.
Randolph reiterated that the hear
ings at the outset would be conducted
behind closed doors, although news
paper men will be admitted. He said
when the investigation progresses the
doors may be thrown open to the
public.
20 Calls Received Daily.
His announcement was repeated In
view of the numerous requests for
permission to "sit in" on the hear
ings. Since the committee decided
on the date to start the inquiry there
have been on the average of 20 calls
a day from persons who said they de-
sired to attend.
A broadcasting company also asked
permission to have a nlicrophone in
the committee room during the ses-
sions, but action on this request has
been deferred.
Randolph explained the commit
tee intended to make thorough and
impartial inquiry into crime condi-
tions in Washington and that 1t Is
not planning show
Offers of assistance and cooper
alton have been received by the COM
mittee from a number of prominent
District lawyers, civic leaders and
business men. The latest pledge of
aid came from James G.. Yaden, presi-
dent of the Federation of Citizens
Associations.
Wrote to Associations.
Yaden advised Randolph that he
also had sent a letter to each of the
so neighborhood citizens associations
urging their cooperation in the
vital and timely effort" of his COM
mittee.
May we urge upon you and upon
the whole Congress, he said, "the
need for a thorough study of our
crime problem and the importance Of
following the study with constructive
remedial action" \

Hauptmann Regains His
Composure, Shaker By
= y
Testimony in His Cell

The first time, when Attorney
General David T. wilentz charged
him with the crime In his formal
opening, Hauptmann gave evidence
Of being shaken.
The second time, when Colonel
Charles A. Lindbergh identified his
voice as that Of the man who took
the $4,000 ransom. Hauptmann's
face flushed.
But the third time, when Colonel
Lindbergh told Of his belief that
Hauptmann kidnapped his child. the
stolid Bronx carpenter showed little
signs Of emotion.
Hauptmann's keepers said he
marches quietly from his cell to the
court room, and marches back
again, upon completion OF the ses-
sion. with almost military precis-
ion.
Given the signal to G<art, he
arises and steps forward to the an
ti-room where q steel door leads to
his cell block. Often the press OF
the crowd of officials and witnesses
in the front Of the judges bench
separate him from his guards for
a short distance. He marches on,
pushing through the throng. intent
on reaching the little steel door.
Hauptmann's human side rarely
reaches the surface. But in q short
chat with his wife, Anna, during
an interruption Friday. he became
more animated than at any time
during the trial, smiling brightly
at her as they talked rapidly in Ger
man and English.

OLDSMOBILE
FOR SAFETY

The 1895 Oldsmobiles, heralded as
the safest cars ever built, are on
display at the show rooms Of Stew
enson Motor Co., Oldsmobile dealer
at 1888 Levee street.
Oldsmobile has retained on the
new models six and eight all Of the
proven features which add to the
comfort and safety Of the motor
list, and the economy, performance
and long life of the ear. according
to Stevenson.
The 1885 Oldsmobiles are big
ger and roomier," he said. Wheel
bases have been heightened, weight
redistributed % that the paSseng-
ers now ride between tn axles, and
sturdy k~nee-action wheels, Of a
type found on no other low price
car as standard equipment. are en-
gineered into the new Oldsmobiles
without extra cost.
The widely-heralded solid steel
"turret top" body by Fisher is a real
safety advance and in this new
Oldsmobile the passengers ride with
steel above them. steel below them
and steel all around them. Not
only does the new solid steel roof
add safety m itself but 1t contri-
butes much toward the 40 per cent
increased strength Of the 1895
bodies.
The roof also plays an impor-
tant part in the new streamlined de-
sign, which combines the principles
OF aero dynamics with real beauty.
"Oldsmobile retains on the new
models super hydraulic brakes, and
increases the braking area IA per
cent making them even more power
full and swifter of operation.
One Of the striking designs in the
new airs is that Oldsmobile has not
only increased performance by STEP
ping up horsepower, improving &C
CELEBRATION and hill climbing. and
raising the top speeds but at the
same time has increased the econo-
my Of operation"
