ADMINISTRATION HAS
HARDEST TEST AHEAD

Continued from page one)
probable that the bill would be
stripped of its work provisions,
the amount of its appropriation
drasticailv reduced and the pro-
iect confined to a simple dole.
Senator James Byrnes, D., S,
c., one of Mr.. Roosevelt's closest
congressional advisers who pilot
ed the measure through the sem
ate appropriations committee was
exceptionally gloomy. He had
sought without success to defeat
the McCarran amendment.
"The work relief bill is dead, "
he told the United Press.
Senator Alva Adams, D., Colo,
expressed the same opinion. He
forecast the appropriation would
be reduced to $1,880,000.000 and
the money spent in aiding the
nations needy until private en-
terprise can move millions off re-
lief rolls.
Adams was prepared to fight
for an amendment reducing the
Appropriation if the measure had
not been recommitted yesterday.
He stated last night that the S4,-
S0,000,000 grant would threaten
the credit Of the government. A
similar warning was issued from
the floor Of the senate yesterday
| by Chairman Carter Glass, D.,
Va, of the committee.
Other administration leaders
! pointed to the folly of attempt
ing to pass the works bill as re-
ported from committee and APP
proved by the president.
Senator Elmer Thomas, D.,
Okla, has offered an amendment
which would make mandatory
certain permissive provisions of
the silver purchase act passed by
the 73rd congress.
Senator Burton X. Wheeler, D.,
Mont, was rallying inflationists
to his amendment calling on the
government to issue S4,000,000,-
900 in greenbacks to finance the
WORKS program.
Senator Robert LaFollette.
| Prog, Wis. was leading a small
group of liberals in plan to
raise the appropriation to S10,-
OOO,OO0,O00.
Other proposals, all obnoxious
to the administration, were being
prepared.
In the face Of this situation,
party leaders said it was futile,
after the first test vote on the
measure through the McCarran
amendment had gone against the
administration to permit it to re-
main on the floor subject to prey
by the left-wing bloc.
Although the president was
known to have been disappointed
by the adoption of the McCarran
amendment, Byrnes told the Uni
ted Press last night that he
doubted the veracity of printed
reports that the chief executive
would carry his fight to the
country in another radio fireside
chat.
McCarran and leaders of organ
ICED labor, despite this admins
tration attitude, watched the
bills movements closely, fearing
a possible attempt to maneuvel
it to victory later.

Buster. Underneath he has no little

V you have met the queenly men,
" Der of this family, the Amert-
can elm, and the vagabond
Il known as slippery; now we
have the corky members biography
to add to our elm family group.
Trees, like individual members In
the same family and under the same
roof, have their own little quirks and
foibles. That is what makes them so
interesting.
It seems that the rock or cork elm,
whichever name you prefer, was dis
covered in the woods of Western New
York by q lover of nature named
David Thomas. He became very much
intrigued by its corky bark, as well
as its unusual habit of bearing flowers
and fruit in clusters (racemes).
He named his find Ulmus racemosa.
Later he found this name had been
previously given to a European corky
elm. So his friends honored him by
substituting the name Thomasi in
stead.
The finest of these trees are to be
found growing in the dry soil of lower
Ontario and Michigan. Here they
reach a height of so to 80 feet. with
O trunk measurement of to feet.
You will also see this tree in scat
tered groups west to Nebraska and
Tennessee and east as far as the
State of Vermont.
All cork elms have straight trunks.
This Is very different from the white
elm, whose trunk divides into numer-
GUS branches to form the crown Of
the tree.
The leaves are, as you can see,
typical elm leaves, smooth, leathery
and elliptical. The fruit is ripe in the
early Summer. They are waferlike,
one-seeded, ovate IN shape and about
III inches long. Their outer ends
are slightly notched. They dance
gaily on their tough stems with every
breeze that comes along. When it is
time for them to leave the home ties
they let go and with a nodding fare
well to their mother go with God
father Wind to far-away places. That
is, II godfather is in swiftly travel
ing mood.
When the breeze dies down the seed
let finds himself in q very new en-
vironment. This being the end Of the

THIS Is the name Of . town In
Buckinghamshire, England. As q
surname 1t can be traced to the time
Of William the Conqueror and the
Domesday Book, when 1t was spelled
de Olnei." We find a record Of one
Roger de Olnei, who was living in
Buckinghamshire soon after the con-
quest Of England by the Normans.
The first of the Olney family in
America was Thomas, who was born
in Hertfordshire, England, about 1900.
He came to Salem, Mass, about 1885
on the ship Planter. In 1886 he was
appointed surveyor. He received o
grant of 10 acres Of land near Sa-
lem. He was admitted . freeman and
became q disciple of Roger williams.
In 1888 Thomas Olney removed to
Providence, r. l., where he was one
of the towns founders and one Of
the original proprietors. He was elect
ed treasurer in 1888, commissioner in
1851, served in many local onlces and
became one of the towns most infiu-
entail citizens. His occupation In
England had been . shoemaker ct st.

Prickly Porky had defied Buster

Buster Bear. He had his head in a
small hole under some roots. He had
all his quills on end and they pointed
In every direction. He was lashing
back and forth with his short, broad

quilts. ANY one who came within
