Washington, Jan. 18.-One Of those
disturbing New Deal family affairs
such as in the past have turned MIRA
and AAA upside down Is now de-
moralizing the sector ruled by secre-
tary 1ckes.
Efforts to smooth off the waters
made turbulent by the Burlew affair
have been strenuous and unsuccess-
full. Despite q stalemate, the chief
characters retain q nervous where
do-we-go-from-here attitude and find
themselves unable to relax.
Occupants Of the Interior-PWA
building. with its countless bureaus
and commissions. merely went through
the motions Of work for at least three
days after public reports appeared
that the White House sought re.
moval by Ickes Of two Of his most
trusted and powerful aides, Admin
istrative Assistant Ebert K. Buflew
and Chief Investigator Louis r.
CLAWS.
Nearly everyone and everything
were distinctly upset.
1ckes. Burlew. and CLAWS sought
desperately to learn who had leaked"
the story. What they really wanted
to find out was that the yarn hadn't
been spilled out Of the White House
by Mrs. Roosevelt and Louis Howe.
The more they investigated, the
farther they seemed to be from find
ing out anything Of the sort. And
that didn't make them feel any bet
ter, either.
ICKES IN THE CREASE
So 1ckes sent Burlew and CLAWS
off for few days Of rest, apparently
hoping that the tension would die
down and that nothing very terrible
would be happening.
But the doughty Honest Harold"
continues to be bedeviled. Despite flat
denials from al quarters, he Is known
as the fellow who defied the wishes
Of the RooSevelts.
His enemies have gleefully sharpen
ed their pitchforks. Some Of his
friends have come to tell him that
Burlew Is handicap whose activities
and continued presence are personal
~ injurious to him.
And the unpopularity Of Burlew
and CLAWS among subordinates has
boiled over into the light now that
many Of them, emboldened by the
thought that the White House Is On
their side. feel free to air their opin-
ions.

WALES IS HOST TO
FRENCH PREMIER

PARIS, Oct. 1.-(UP). - The
Prince of Wales was host to Pre-
mier Laval and the ministers of
marine and post offices at a Brit
ish embassy luncheon today fol-
lowing a conference between La
val and George Clark, British am
bassador.
Both conversations were consid-
cred highly significant, coming at
a time when Britain is seeking
French support in case of Euro
pean aggression and France is
seeking Britain's.
The move, though supposedly
against Italy, in view of the i'm
plications growing out of the
Italo- Ethiopian situation, was com
monty regarded here as involving
the future attitude of the two cor
ferees toward any possible Ger
man aggression.

NICKELPLATE
RAIL EMPIRE
BOUGHT BACK
Van Sweringens' Frien DIS
Finance $4S,00O,O00
Deal For Them

NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-(UP).-
The Van Sweringen brothers of
Cleveland, for 900, yester-
day bought back control of the
S3,OOO,OO0,O0O railway empire
which they risked with New York
bankers, to back a note of $48,-
100000 in principal and interest.
The actual deal took but few
minutes. The scene was laid in
the graveyard of securities" the
auction rooms of Adrian Muller
& Co., at Is Vesey street. And
rightly named it is. The somber
auctioneer, H. M. Collins, droned
out descriptions of the various
parcels, and finally on groups of
the groups.
Colonel Leonard P. Ayres, of
Cleveland, acted for the Van
Sweringens, representing their
new company, Mid-America Corp,
which was formed last Saturday.
Group one was up for sale. 1t
included parcels one thru twenty
eight and included control of Al
leghany Corp, which in turn car
ried control of most of the Vans
vast interests.
Where did the Van Sweringens
get the money for this vast deal?
They never did put up very much
to build their gigantic railroad
system. They put up less to get
back control. Cleveland friends
explained their bidding was done
through Mid-America Corp, or
ganized Saturday by friends and
associates of the Vans. How much
it was capitalized for remained a
mystery. The Vans are officers.
Colonel Ayres acted as repre-
sentative of the Van Sweringens
and not as vice-president of the
Cleveland Trust Co. He has a re-
tainer from the railroad brothers
and as such is a member of their
executive staff. No better man
could have been selected to bid.
His $2,803,00O bid was made with
the nonchalance of the crap-shoot-
er who risks a nickel.

and the sheriff of Knox county
was reported to have said yester-
day that he would also arrest an
other man in the case.

Declares Budget
Saving Imaginary

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1. (UP).
Henry H. Curran, director of the
National Economy League, last
night attacked President ROoSe-
velt's budget revisions clipping a
billion and a quarter dollars off
the expected deficit as a fancled,
rather than real saving.
at does no good to say that
the actual deficit is a billion less
than the President fancied nine
months ago." Curran said. "This
is not a saving. We still have a
deficit of over S3,000,000,000. It
is like a man going into debt $500
to buy an automobile and telling
us he has saved $500 because he
did not go into debt $500 for his
automobile instead of $500.
"He is still in debt just the
same, and so are all the American
taxpayers in debt just the same.
eff the money were spent wise
" that would mitigate the danger
to that extent, but most of the
country knows by now that the
relief money is not being spent
wisely beyond a small fraction of
the amount that is being expend-
ed. We are turning right back to
boondoggling and similar non-
sense"
Curran also attacked Mr.. Roose-
velt's statement that "the under
lying tax structure of the govern
ment is weaker than it ever was
before in our history"
"The fact Isl" Curran said,
'that the underlying tax structure
of the government is weaker thar
it ever was before in time of
peace within the memory of living
