 Is Already Seen

WASHINGTON, Jan. 19. - The Democratic leadership today sought to head off any revolt" against the major features of President Roosevelt's social security pro- gram.

 Come Until Feb.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-Nine Supreme Court Justices are gath- cred to seek an agreement on the gold clause cases. A decision might come Monday but it may not come before February 4.

 The question is whether the Government acted constitutionally in suspending the clause requir- ing payment of gold or the equiv alent on some hundred billion of dollars of public and private ob- ligations.
 If the Government loses. secur- ities would call for payment of one hundred and sixty nine billion dollars in the present devalued dollar.

M ONEY ITEMS
 OF HAUPT PTMANN
 CAUSE STUDY
Defense Probing Into Bank Account State to
 Counter Evidence

PENNINGTON, N. J., Jan. 19.- The defense in Bruno Richard Hauptmann's case explored today the maze of money drafting evil dence from his financial accounts to oppose the States testimony that he had a mysterious income of $49, ,960, just short of the ransom.
 The defense experts are wading through Hauptmann's bank and brokerage statements during the weekend recess.
 The defense attorneys said they would show the ransom notes fail- ed to appear in a single account.
 Counter Attack
 The State took immediate steps for a counter attack. Attorney General Wilentz asserted that on the eve of the ransom payment, Hauptmann's balance in the bank was only $2O0 and one year later the amount was S2,5O0 while in a Mt. Vernon, N. Y, bank, Haupt- mann's account of deposits was known for the number of silver coins. The State contends he was passing the ransom bills in minor purchases and banking all of the change.
 Aside from the financial investi- gations, the weekend activities of attorneys centered about other evil dence offered or to be offered during the trial.
 Wood Panel
 There is a panel of wood trim which was found in a closet in Hauptmann's home after his arrest bearing the name of Dr. John F. Condon and his telephone number. During the questioning, in New York, Hauptm ann acknowledged this writing but said he noted the address because hs was interested in the case. He could not, how ever, offer an explanation as to why the telephone number was noted on the wood panel.
 The wood panel is also offered as evidence by the State, hoping to show the same marks as on the kidnap ladder were made by hicks in a plane.
 After a week of emotional cli- maxes, Hauptmann relaxed in his
