WIDER POWERS
FOR IVA HINGE
ON PRESIDENT

International News Service
Personal intervention Of Presi-
dent Roosevelt to effect a widen
ing of the scope of the Tennessee
Valley Authority's power was seen
as 0 possibility today following
the House Military Affairs Com
mittee's action in tabling the Nc
Swain bill.
The latter, authorizing the IVA
to issue a total of 00,000,000 in
bonds to purchase properties OF
private utilities, was designed to
strengthen and clarity the powers
of the New Deals vast cheap
power development plan.
Setback For iva
It was tabled by the close vote
of IS to IL when a militant group
of Democrats and Republicans
joined in opposing it after weeks
Of debate.
The committees action was con-
sidered a major setback for the
iva and it was felt the PreSi.
dents personal intervention may
be necessary to save the plan for
charging the scope of the power
development project.
The McSwain bill had been de-
signed to overcome objections to
the IVA act as raised by the deci.
sion several months ago of a Fed.
eral court in Birmingham, Ala.
The courts decision left in doubt
the legality of the TWAS distribu-
ton of electric power and the sale
OF electric appliances in the ter
ritory surrounding its plants on the
Tennessee River.
New Bill Planned
Today plans were under way to
draft a new bill which might be
accepted both by the committee
and IVA. Administration lead
ers planned to confer with Presi.
dent Roosevelt before acting.
Mr.. McSwain declared himself
Stunned" by the vote, while Rep
resentative Maverick CD, Of
Texas, leading iva proponent,
declared:
"It's q case Of blankety-blanko
ETY. Democrats going back on
their platform, their party and
their President"
Mr.. Mccall offered the commit
tee in secret session an amend
ment which would force iva to
keep its funds with the U. s..
Treasury to be disbursed through
the Comptroller General, and pro-
vide that Congress specify just
what money is to be spent for
when appropriated.

COED REVEALS
RED ACTIVITIES
At CHICAGO j.

CHICAGO, May Is U.N.SO
Having heard the charges Of Miss
Lucille Norton, Is, that she be-
came imbued with the doctrines
of Communism while a student at
the University of Chicago, the
State Senate Committee investi-
eating college radicalism in Illi-
nois was in adjournment today.
While no date was fixed for the
next hearing, Senator Richey v.
Graham, committee chairman, in
dicated further testimony will be
heard here within a fortnight.
Miss Norton, comedy niece of
Charles r. Walgreen, appeared as
the star witness late yesterday in
a session marked by the clashes
of opposing counsel and frequent
noisy outbursts among the spec
tators. Walgreen'S action in with
drawing his niece from the uni
verSity, because of So-called radi-
cal doctrines which he said she
had absorbed on the campus,
brought about the senatorial in
Vestigation.
Charges Denied
Three professors at the univer-
sity followed Miss Norton to the
witness stand and denied the allie
cations of Walgreen that they fos-
tered communistic beliefs either
privately or in the classroom.
Reading from a prepared state.
ment, Miss Norton declared:
81 gained the feeling through
readings and contacts that Com.
munism would be an excellent
form of government once it
were established. .
"When 1 entered the Univer-
sity Of Chicago 1 had little
knowledge of, or interest in,
Communism. / accepted with
out a question the belief that
our Government was the best in
the world"
Continuing, the witness out,
lined causes which made me feel
that Communism had many ad.
vantages." Among these, she said,
was the Marx-Engels Communist
manifesto presented as required
reading in one of her courses. A
lecturer, she said, declared that
Communism was the one form of
government which capitalism had
to fear.
Tells Of Lectures
Disintegration Of the family
was emphasized in readings and
lectures, Miss Norton testified,
and at a symposium she attended,
Prof. Frederick L. Schuman, of the
political science department,
stated:
II believe in religion for some
people and free love for myself"
This DR.. Schuman denied. The
professor declared Miss Norton had
never been a member of a class
of his and, if he made the state
ment at all, it was in a jok-
ing vein. DR.. Schuman denied
indorsing William z. Foster and
James w. Ford as the presi-
Dental and vice presidential can
didaAs of the Communist party
in 1882.
Harold L. Ickes, Secretary of
the Interior, today came to the
defense of the university in the
investigation of alleged radical
ism.
Addressing the teachers welfare
organizations, Mr.. Ickes said
those who prompted the investi-
CATION were witch hunters"

Montana turkey growers during
the 1934-S5 marketing season, shipped
1,204,4 44 pounds of turkeys through
pools that Melted the growers $243,-
6O.59, an average of 2O.S cents a
pound, according to a compilation by
Miss H. E.. Cushman. extension pOul-
try specialist at Montana State COL
lege.
The summary reveals that 72.9 per-
cent of the birds were marketed
through Christmas pools, while 1875
percent went at Thanksgiving time
and 8.3 percent in January. A total OF
975. 961 pounds were shipped to Christ
mas markets, 22S,1S2 to THANKSGIVING
markets. and 10O.301 pounds to freezer
pool markets in January.
The best price was realized by the
growers at Christmas. the summary
showing an average of 2O.7 cents to1
that market. as against 1876 cents FOL
; Thanksgiving and 20 cents for Janu-
ary.
For the first time the United States
grades were applied to all pools in Mon
tana. according to Miss Cushman. On a
recent trip to the east, the specialist
found that practically all freezer poo.
turkeys weighing up to IA pounds hac
been sold and hat all Montana turkeys
even those weighing over IA pounds
had been cleaned out, indicating the
high quality of the states birds. Mon
, tana prime turkeys. she said, are better
meated birds than the primes OF some
other sections.
For the first time also the Montana
pools this last season used wire-bounc
boxes, which allows a better exhibitor
of the turkeys at the market. Most OF
the pools emphasized sizing last season
which assures the buyers OF more uni

CuShman said she was informed Mon
tana turkeys had a better reception in
the east last year due to these i'm
provementS.
