To CONTINUE

COLLEGE PARK, Md, June
18.-After a 14-hour session yes
terday, the University of Mary
land board of regents have again
delayed a decision on charges OF
maladministration against Presi-
dent Raymond A. Pearson.
The board will continue Its

cording to George M. Shriver,
chairman. He refused to answer
all other questions.
1t is reported that the regents
stand seven to two for DR.. Pear
sons dismissal, but cannot agree
on when the dismissal shall be-
come effective.
This poll was taken after ques-
tionnaires sent to faculty mem
bers is said to have shown vote
of 48 to against the president.
The investigation followed a
series of editorials appearing in
the student newspaper, the Dia-
mondback, charging DR.. Pearson
with inefficiency. Alumni and fac.
ulty members demanded the probe.

HARLAN DELAYS
UTILITIES TAX
HEARING

An effort to corral enough sup
porting testimony on the public
utilities tax bill for the District to
guarantee it's favorable report
promised today to delay its con.
sideration.
The measure was scheduled for
O hearing today before the util-
tiles subcommittee of the House
District Committee. Representa-
tive Randolph Carpenter Cd.
Kansas, is chairman of the sub
committee. Notices of the meet
ing announced that the tax bill
and bill for the abandonment
of the Southern passenger station
at Seventh St. and Maryland Ave.
S. w. would be taken up.
Harlan Wakes Up
When the notice reached Rep
resentative Byron Harlan 3D., OF
Ohio, who introduced the tax bill.
he began Immediately to seek a
delay in the bills consideration.
This tax bill provides for 4
per cent tax on the gross receipts
and a 6 per cent tax on net re-
ceipts of all public utilities and
banks in the District. Representa-
tive Harlan introduced the meas
ure at the opening of the session
when he was a member of the Dis
trict Committee. Since that time
he has resigned this post to take
up his duties as a member OF the
Rules Committee. He said:
81 did not write this bill. I
introduced it on request. I favor
it, however, solely on the ground
that it will mean additional rev.
enue for the District. / want to
get Washington more money,
that's all.
ASKED DISAPPOINTMENT
"Just as soon as I received
notice of the meeting / phoned
Representative Carpenter and
told him that I couldn't get the
witnesses together in this short
time and / asked him to post
pone the hearing until later. I
think I would be ready by the
25th of this month, If we could
get a hearing then"
It is considered likely that a
favorable report will be forthcom-
ing on the other bill. Opposition
to this bill subsidized, it was said,
when the Southern railroad de-
cided to continue to stop trains at
this point and to provide an UNI
brella covering for passengers.
The station with it's necessary
complement of employees is to be
abandoned under the plan.

DIVORCE BILL To
FACE DELLA
IN CONGRESS

Sponsors of the proposal to lib
eralize District divorce laws were
disappointed today in their fail
ure to bring about a special meet
ing of the House District Com.
mittee this week to vote on the
measure.
Representative Randolph Car
penter CD Of Kansas, co-author
of the bill, which already has
been approved by the Senate, re-
quested Representative Mary T.
Norton Cd, of New Jersey, chair
man of the committee. to call a
special meeting for this week, but
she replied that she would do so
only upon the request Of Repre-.
sentative Vincent L. Palmisano
CD Of Maryland.
PalmisanO Reluctant
Representative PalmiSano Is
chairman of the subcommittee to
which the divorce measure was
referred, and Mrs. Norton ex.
planned that she always has
waited for the subcommittee
chairman to present a matter be-
fore she calls the committee to-
gether to act on the proposition.
The Marylander, however, is OPP
posed to the Carpenter bill, claim
ing that the provision making ex-
IRENE cruelty grounds for a di-
vorce suit is too broad. He con-
tends that the provision should
be eliminated or that cruelty
should be defined in the bill, so
that it could not be misused.
Mrs. Norton joins Representa-
tive PalmiSano in this belief, as
serting that while she has no OBJ
lection to the remainder Of the
bill, she is decidedly opposed to
the cruelty provision unless the
word is defined.
Faces Delay
Mrs. Norton pointed out that
she did net believe a special
meeting to consider the bill would
be in order unless requested by
the subcommittee chairman, be-
cause the subcommittee has not
voted upon the proposition and
there is no report available for
the committee members.
It was the desire Of Represen-
tative Carpenter to obtain COM
mittee approval of the bill this
week so it could he ready for
House action on Monday, which
is the next District day in the
House. If the House action is
not obtained next Monday the
bill may be lost in the rush of
last-minute business

Chicago Grain
tReported by chas. D. Barney L. Co.
sy the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, May 18.-In a rush Of
selling that resulted from the heaviest
gene1al rains witnessed in months,
wheat. rye and oats today all broke
season low price records.
downpourS were reported as biggest
in the dust-bowl region, long the coun-
try's champion drought center. The
rains suggested notable fresh improve
ment of the wheat crop outlook, but
also pointed toward new delays for
corn planting.
Wheat values closed nervous, 4-5s
under yesterdays finish; July, 9O7sa
9l1s. Corn, h-A up; July, 821l a82ss.
Oats unchanged to Is off, and provi-
sions unchanged to rise of Z cents.
Wheat fell quickly ~ cents
bushel, but afterward made consider
able recovery owing more or less to
strength which developed in the corn
market. The sudden drop of wheat
prices, however, forced into execution
numerous stop-loss selling orders.
Weakness of wheat here was in the
face of comparative strength shown by
the Liverpool wheat market, where
there were increasing complaints of
i'll effects Of unusually cold weather
in European countries, with Italy and
Yugoslavia especially reporting crop
damage.
Corn prices moved up sharply after
transient setbacks that were due to
sympathy with wheat weakness. The
May delivery of corn acted tight not
withstanding talk in some quarters
that good deal of the big open inter-
est in May corn is of merely book
keeping character. Deliveries on Chi
cago May corn contracts today were
relatively small, totalling but 100000
bushels, whereas the open interest is
8,442, 900 bushels.
May durum wheat at Duluth drop
ped 5 cents from yesterdays level,
the maximum decline that exchange
rules permitted for one day. Durum
wheat prices have been unusually high
for some time past and an attempt to
sell a small amount disclosed a lack Of
aggressive support.
Provisions paralleled the action of
corn.
Grain range at principal markets

Baltimore Markets

spite generally light receipts from all

Consumptive demand generally CEN
tered on large hennery whites at 241s

The live poultry market shows little
change from last week under fairly
good demand, but centered mostly on
fat broilers with Rocks bringing 25

ally moved slow at 20 to %.
Old hens in more liberal receipt

with white varieties bringing top
values.
Potatoe Market Dull.
The market for old potatoes is dull
and values show a decline at SIS to

graded mixed stock selling mostly As
to so. Demand for sweet potatoes
and yams holds steady and all desir-
able stock meets with ready sale at
