BLOC FORMING
IN SENATET0
AID HIM


The Senate was embroiled in a
major battle over immigration
problems today as Senator Reyn'
olds CD Of North Carolina re.
sumed his one-man filibuster
against the Kerr Coolidge bill.
Reynolds fought on alone, but
from questions of his colleagues
it was apparent a strong bi-parti-
san bloc is forming to help him
sidetrack the Coolidge bill and
substitute his own more drastic
measure.
The principal feature of the bill
sponsored by Senator Coolidge
CD of Massachusetts would eS-
tablish an interdepartmental COM
mittee to pass on immigration mat
tiers and permit some 5000 aliens
now subject to deportation tc re-
main in this country providing
they are Of good moral character
and have close relatives living
here.
Restrictions frightened
The Reynolds bill would reduce
present immigration quotas by 80
per cent, require all aliens to be
fingerprinted, and tighten up
regulations all along the line.
Reynolds objected Strenuously
to the interdepartmental commit
tee claiming it would place "un-
warranted and unconstitutional
authority" in the hands Of a few.
He asked:
How are we to know who
will be appointed to carry on
this important work, and what
guarantee have we that COM
petent persons will be selected,
and not just some more per.
sons to fill a political appoint
ment?"
SCOTS AT COOLIDGE BILL
Declaring immigration one Of
the most important problems to
come before the Senate, Reynolds
denounced other provisions of the
Coolidge bill and asserted it fails
to restrict immigration and per.
mits Thousands of alien Grim
inals to remain in this country. :"
He said:
They call It q deportation
bill, but it's not a deportation
bill at all; it is an alien i'm.
pOrtation bill ana doesn't keep
criminals out Of this country:
1t brings them in"
Reynolds said he is prepared
to filibuster against the Coolidge
bill "a week If necessary" to bring
his measure to the front. His
bill was defeated by the Immigra-
ton Committee by an overwhelm-
ing majority when he offered it
as a substitute for the Coolidge
measure.

LOTTERY LAW
VIOLATION
DENIED


Hammering away in its efforts
to deny the use Of the mails to
so-called treasure hunts" and lot.
teries, the Post office Department.
today took UP the case Of the
National Conference on Legalizing
Lotteries, Inc, of which Mrs. Oliver
Hartman, New York socialite. 10
president.
The Government charges this
concern is conducting gift enter.
prise, or scheme, for the distribu.
ton Of money by chance, "offer.
ing prizes dependent in whole or
in part upon lot or chance in VIC.
lation Of the lottery laws"
Charges Denied
1t further charges that the con.
Germ docs not now have, and
did not have at the time OF the
inauguration Of the scheme, SUI.
ficient funds out Of which to pay
the promised 100000 in cash
prizes"
A general denial of the charges
was made by Horace j. Donnelly,
former solicitor Of the depart
ment, who claimed the plan Of
the contest was submitted to the
department and after such sub
mission it advised the New York
postmaster the matter relating
to the contest was acceptable for
mailing within the purview Of
the lottery statutes.
The department, however, said
this ruling was made with the
understanding that, since the de-
partment could not determine in
advance how the contest would be
actually operated, full RESPONSE
bility for any violation Of law in.
volved in the actual operation Of
the plan would. rest with the
respondent"
Mrs. Hartman Absent
Mrs. Hartman did not attend
the hearing, but was represented
by her son, Oliver c. Hartman.
A statement prepared by the or.
ganiZation said its purpose is to
promote legislation, at present only
in New York State. bu Eventually
nationally, for legalization Of lot
teries under control Of a Stats
board, the proceeds to go only to
public works, charitable and re-
ligious institutions. The state.
ment denied Mrs. Hartman was
connected with the So-called
Treasure Hunt" scheme.

SEM REYNOLDS STAGES ONEMAN FN-BUSTER ON ALIEN
ALBERTA ST|RS
INVESTORS TO
NEWALARM

EDMONTON, Alberta, April 4 Il.
N.S).-Alberta's social credit gov.
eminent had spread q new cause
for alarm among investors in the
PROVINCES securities today with an
amendment to the bill providing
compulsory conversion of the
PROVINCES 100000 indebted
ness into non-maturing provincial
stock.
Premier Aberhart, former school
teacher and evangelist who rode to
power last August on an unfulfilled
promise to pay every Alberta citi-
zen q monthly social credit "divi-
dend" Of $25, yesterday pushed
through the legislature an amend
ment which removes the provision
that q minimum interest rate OF
az per cent be paid on the stock.
AS a result the stock can be ex-
changed for outstanding provincial
securities at an interest rate Of l
per cent, or, If the government de-
sires, at no interest. Present out
standing securities draw interest
as high as 6 per cent.
1t is estimated IS per cent Of
the obligations arc held by inves.
tors in the United States. Since
the measure, expected to achieve
third reading Monday, receive
royal assent Tuesday and be pro-
claimed law within 80 days, bars
all court action, investors will
have no recourse.
Opponents Of the social credit
party in the legislature lost q fight
to exempt 100000 in provin.
cial savings certificates from the
provisions Of the bill. The certi.
ficates are largely held by provin-
cial investors Of moderate means.
