ROOSEVELT BACK
IN WHITE HOUSE
Returns to Desk After West.
ern Trip to Confer
on Budget.
BY ]. RUSSELL YOUNG,

President Roosevelt returned to the
White House today after one of his
busiest days. Yesterday he made four
speeches and received a degree from
Notre Dame University.
The Presidents special train ar
rived at Union Station at 1890 am.
After talking briefly in his car with
Secretary of State Hull and Secretary
of Commerce Roper. who were on
hand to welcome him, he motored
directly to the White House and lost
little time getting to his desk.
The Presidents face was beaming
as he waved to a small crowd at the
station who had assembled to ap-
plaud him. In response to greetings.
Mr.. Roosevelt said he had a great
time and never felt better in his life.
To Confer on Budget.
During the afternoon the President
was to hold an important budget con-
ference with Secretary of the Treas
ury Morgenthau. Daniel Bell, acting
director of the budget, and other ex-
perts working on the final figures of
the budget, which the President will
submit to Congress when it convenes
in January.
In his renewed budget survey one
of the first problems confronting Mr..
Roosevelt will be the completion of
the budget estimates for the District
of Columbia. These estimates were
not in shape to take with him to
Warm Springs to include in his
budget study in the quiet of that re-
treat.
The Presidents activities yesterday
suggested strongly to many in his
party that his campaign for re-elec-
ton has actually begun. at least to
some extent. Two Of the four speeches
were set speeches and had been pre-
pared by him with great care. The
first of these was before a huge gath
ering in the Chicago stockyards am
phitheater on the occasion of the an
nual meeting of the American Farm
Bureau Federation. His other set
speech was later in the afternoon, at
Notre Dame University in South Bend,
at a special convocation to commemo-
rate the new commonwealth govern
ment for the Philippines and during
which he received an honorary degree
of doctor of laws. In his address the
President asked for church liberty and
toleration
Urges World Peace.
Mr.. RooSevelt's other two speeches
we're extemporaneous. One was at a
luncheon given in his honor by the
famous Saddle and Sirloin Club in the

HALFBACK IN CASE
Alleges G. W. Trinastich
Tried to Stop ProSeCu-

george w. 1TlIldStlCn, WHO dllcBeUly
tried to stop the prosecution of Rep
resentative John H. Hoeppel of Cali
fornia and his son, Charles j. Hoeppel,
was identified today as halfback on
the George Washington University
varsity foot ball squad.
James w. Ives, star Government
witness. yesterday identified Trinastich
in District Supreme Court as the man
who recently urged him to drop the
case against the Hoeppels, charged
with conspiring to sell Ives a West
Point appointment for $1,000.
After Ives had identified Trinastich,
who was seated among the spectators
in the court room, the George Wash
ington athlete was served with q
subpoena and ordered to the witness
room following a conference between
Judge Daniel w. O'Donoghue and de-
fense and prosecution attorneys. The
defense expects to call him as a wit
ness later.
Ives CrosS-Examined.
Throughout cross-examination oi
Ives. former Olympic athlete, the de-
fense today attempted to support its
contention that the Representatives
interest In Ives appointment to West
Point was due entirely to a desire
to aid a group of Army officers in
getting an outstanding athlete for the
Military Academy.
Maj. Gen. Samuel T. AnSell,
U. S. A., retired. wartime judge ad-
vocate general of the Army and chief
of Hoeppels defense counsel, showered
Ives with questions about the War
Departments interest in his efforts
for admission to West Point. Ives
however. insisted he did not know
any Army officers were particularly
interested in his candidacy.
Ives had told how in his efforts to
get West Point appointment he went
to the War Department with a letter
of introduction to Gen. Edgar T. Con-
ley from Maj. Gen. Paul Malone, for
mer commanding officer of the Sd
Corps Area. Later he told of dictat-
ing letter to Representative Hoeppel
about a West Point appointment in
the adjutant generals Office on which
Col Raymond S. Bamberger made q
written notation.
Gen. Ansell inquired if Col. Bam-
berger's interest or the interest o.
other Army officers in him was due tc
an apparent desire to get a f1rst-claSs
athlete for the Military Academy.
To that question Ives replied: 81
don't know what their thoughts were
Nothing was said or done to give me
that impression"
Ives had just previously testified HI
sought the appointment because h'
was interested in an Army career anc
not its athletics particularly.

BY WILL p. KENNEDY.

The end of the long fight for ade-
quate air facilities for the Capital
loomed today when it was disclosed
that negotiations are under way look
ing toward the construction of two
airportS by the Federal Government.
This development, coming unexpect-
edly, was disclosed in an exchange OF
correspondence between Representa-
tive Jennings Randolph Of West Vir-
ginia, chairman of the Subcommittee
on Parks and Fairgrounds of the Dis
trict Committee, which held extensive
hearings on air facilities, and J. M.
johnson, Assistant Secretary of Com
merce.
The plan under consideration en-
tails taking over and improving Wash
ington Airport to care for immediate
needs. and then developing the Grav-
ely Point site-a three-year undertak-
ing. Public works funds would be
used. and johnson said he understood
Harry L. Hopkins, works progress ad-
ministrator. had promised to help. 1t
is proposed to complete the improve
ment of Washington Airport in six
months.
U. S. Would Supervise Ports.
Both fields would be under Federal
supervision and the District of Co.
lumbia would not be required to share
any of the expense, as proposed in
previous legislation.
Just how the plans would shape In
with the recent report of the Virginia.
District Boundary Commission which
held both sites properly belonged to
Virginia would have to be determined.
Randolph believes that this plan Is
satisfactory compromise which
should be supported by all interested
parties. He pointed out the Depart
ment of Commerce plan voiced the
committees contention that the Gov
ernment should undertake the eStab-
lishment of adequate airport facilities
in the Nations Capital and that it
should not be left to the local COM
munity.
johnson, in his letter, said:
I'VE are all convinced of the urgent
need for improvement of airport fa-
cilitieS in the District of Columbia
The present transport terminal here,
in our opinion, borders on condition
of danger.
1T is suggested that the Depart
ment of Commerce recommend that a
Federal airport be established at the
present Washington Airport site-that
P. w. A. funds. be allocated for its pur-
chase, and that relief labor be OBJ
tanned from w. P A. in order to make
the necessary improvements for a suit
able airline terminal. This project
could be completed in six months.
"At the same time work could be
started at the site known as Gravelly
Point with Works Progress funds or
Public Works funds with a view to
completing the project over a period
of three years.
"The Department of Commerce does
not wish to take the initiative in this
matter If it might conflict in any way
with the plans of your committee and
I would therefore appreciate your
views on the subject.
Il understand that Mr. Hopkins has
already signified his willingness to be
of assistance in this matter. If these
improvements are to be carried on
under w. P. A., it is highly essential
that the plans be expedited and that
an ALLEGATION of funds be asked for
without delay.

this statement at tomorrow's meeting

Following the meeting it was stated
authoritatively that the British re-
affirmed their opposition to the Japa-
neSe demands for feet equality.

Although there was discussion at
the initial meeting of the possibili-
ties of dividing the session into two
classi1cationS, the japanese pressed
for the immediate consideration of
their demands for decision concern
ing the total tonnages of navies main
tanned by the great nations.
The two claSSiflcationS which have

and limitations according to sizes and
types of ships and guns.
The japanese insistance conformed
with their announced attitude Of seek
ing a decision on the total sizes Of

1t was believed in Wall Street tt
be the first time that situation Of
this kind has arisen in the London
market. There have been occasion:
in the past, prior to the American

occasions brokers collaborated with
New York and the sterling equivalent
of the New York price was usually

Private advices to Wall Street meta
circles from London said there were
about 100000 ounces of silver
offered for sale in that market today
