Indiana Bankers Association presi-
dent, and Arthur V. Brown, Indiana
National Bank president.
Mr.. Eccles, a native of Utah, was
special assistant secretary of the
Treasury in 1924 and at one time
was mentioned as a presidential
candidate.
The party left for breakfast at
the indianapolis Athletic Club.
Favors Federal Spending
Mr.. EccleS was one of six youth
full bankers appointed to serve OF
the reorganized board in February
Of this year. He is As.
His views in favor of Federal
spending and free use of Federal
powers to govern credit have been
known since his spectacular testi-
mony before a congressional COM
mittee in 1888.
He took office Feb. l as chairman
of the board of governors. His term
expires in 1910.
After a day in which the bankers
heard attacks on Democratic ma
tional administration policies, they
were warned by Gov. McNutt last
night at a dinner in the Claypool
against the dangers of ''unpridled
speculation" because of the present
expansion of credit.
There are temptations on every
hand and particularly do they lie
at the desks of the loan officers Of
our banks" the Governor said.
Already evidences are appearing
that in some places the desire for
earnings has overcome the trained
caution which should be universal
in the banking business if we are to
prevent recurrence of the troubles
of the last five years." the Gov
ernor said.
Many Opportunities for Loans
It am not at all certain, on the
other hand, that we have reached
the stage of recovery where over
conservatism is not retarding in
fluence," he said.
Idle money means idle men,"
declared the Governor.
In every community there are
opportunities for the making of safe
and sound investments and loans
which will be repaid when due and
which will start the flow of neces-
sary money into business channels
and thus further relieve unemploy-
ment ills.
To-day, as never before, the eco
nomic future of our country rests
in the hands of sound and courage
Gus and optimistic bankers" he said
in conclusion.
DR.. w. F. Gephart, vice. president
of the First National Bank at st.
Louis, Mo-. said that cheap money
policy was responsible for "our cur
rently low money rates"

SAY 5 PRESENT
RULES ARE
RIDICULOUS
Will Work for Early
Hearings Before
Committee

Early hearings on his new bill
to permit the sale of liquor past
the midnight deadline on Satur-
day will be pressed by Representa-
tive Everett Dirksen (R) of Illi.
nois, as the measure today was re-
ferred to the House District Sub
committee on Judiciary for con-
sideration.
Characterizing as utter foolish
ness" the existing regulation un-
der which liquor establishments
must close at Saturday midnight,
while beer and light wine is served
on Sunday, Representative Dirk
sens measure would permit off
sale establishments to remain
open until / a. m. Sunday and on
sale establishments to serve liquor
until 2 a. m. Sunday.
Would "Show Drys"
He will urge hearings on the
bill, he said, declaring that he
believes they will afford an op-
portunity to SHOW the drys they
are barking up the wrong tree
when they start a movement to
dry up Washington" Also, he
added. he is anxious that the
present wet" Congress pass on
the measure.
Asserting that there is con-
siderable sentiment in the Ma
tional Capital for his bill, Mr..
DirkSen said:
washington is unlike many
cities in the West and Middle'
West, where people go to bed
early Saturday night. The
people in Washington seldom
start out on Saturday night
before 9 or 10 o'clock, and
just about the time they begin
to enjoy themselves in a night
club or hotel the walters come
around and snatch their drinks,
if they are uncOnSumed by IL
o'clock.
MUST GO TO BALTIMORE
Furthermore, if a person
wants a drink of hard liquor
on Sunday, he is forced to go
to Baltimore to get it. Why
should the purchase of liquor
be made difficult? That is not
the purpose of the repeal law.
"UnIesS some change is made
in the law to permit the sale
of liquor in Washington on
Sunday, the same conditions
will exist here that were preva-
lent during the prohibition era.
BOOtleggerS will have a mOnOp-
oily on the liquor business"

100000 FU N D
NEEDED FOR
DC. RELIEF
Money DwindIes Fast;
Exhaustion Likely
BY Mid-ApriI

With funds to carry on the
District program fast dwindling
and likely to be exhausted by mid
April, the Board Of Public Welfare
today recommended to the District
Commissioners that a request for
a deficiency appropriation of
100000 be made of Congress "at
the earliest possible moment" to
carry the program through the re-
mainder of this fiscal year, which
ends June 80.
Commissioners Melvin c. Hazen
and George E. Allen expressed
themselves in full accord with the
welfare boards request and de-
clared they will give it full sup
port.
May Not Be Enough
However, doubt was expressed
in some quarters that the $500, 900
appropriation would be sufficient
to carry the program through
this year, since the cost of relief
is running approximately $35O,OOO
a month and there is little ikeli-
hood it will be materially reduced.
In submitting this recommended
ton, the welfare board estimated
that the $2,00O,00O relief fund
allotted for this fiscal year will
be cut down to $489, sos by March
/. The board also stated that
there are 10000 relief cases on
the District rolls.
Leaves S135,5O5
Expenses for February were fig
ured by the board at $350,000. A
like amount is expected to be ex-
pended in March, which would
leave the board with only $685.
sos to carry the program through
to June 30. This sum likely would
be exhausted before mid-April.
In fixing $600,00 as the amount
necessary to carry the program
through this fiscal year, the board
took into consideration reductions
anticipated in the relief load.
These anticipated reductions in
clude use of Federal funds for old
age, needy blind, dependent and
crippled children assistance and
the transfer of persons now on re-
lief rolls over to Works Progress
Administration projects.
Status of 10000
Breaking down the 10000 fam
lilies and unattached persons car
ried on the relief rolls, the board
stated that $500 are unemploy-
ables, 1000 are employable but in
eligible for WPA jobs because they
were not registered on relief rolls
until after November /. while the
remaining $500 are in categorieS
including persons on work projects
but with insufficient wages to
care for family needs, temporarily
incapacitated persons and similar
unfortunate cases.

Ken Murray
SAYS:

It seems as if most Of the OBJ
servers overlooked the fact that
Walter johnson wasn't the only
dollar tOsSer on WaShingtOn'S
Birthday, judging from reports
that two other pitchers had
equaled the feat of the Big
Train Nevertheless, there's
a point for F. D. :. First time,
to my recollection, since 1929,
that SO many people had dollars
to fool around with.
They say that when Walter
accomplished his stunt, 10000
people crowded the shores of the
river But that isn't the first
time that throwing money away
has caused q run on the banks.
OF course, that method seems
q little Out-mOded These
days, the usual way Of throw
ing money across a river, is to
let the PWA built a bridge.
According to my way Of
thinking, we'd all be better off
If we spent less time trying to
disprOve the things that Wash
ingtOn did; and more time try
ing to do the things he proved.

POLICE TO ASK
NEW MEN ON
TRAFFIC
House Group WiIIHear
Plea for Parking
Ban Downtown

Three major recommendations
to the District Commissioners, it
appeared today, will be made by
the House subcommittee at the
conclusion of its three-month
study of street and traffic con.
ditions of washington. They are;
Cd Regulations against park
ing at any time during the bust
ness day in any Of the con-
geSted downtown streets.
(2) A substantial increase in
the number Of motor .'cle police
men.
OverpasSeS Urged
90 The construction Of over
passes and installation Of traffic
signals to replace all semaphore
system traffic boxes.
The subcommittee will resume
hearing with further testimony by
Supt. Ernest w. Brown, of the
Police Department; Director Of
Vehicles and Traffic william A,
Van Duzer, and Corporation Coun,
sci E. Barrett Prettyman.
At least a month will pass oe
fore the report Of the subcom
mittee goes to the Commission
erS with recommendations.
The subcommittee is expected
to support Major Brown in his re
quest for at least 25 additional
motorcycle policemen Immediately
No Increase
He pointed out to the subcom
mittee that there has been nc
increase of the police force ir
five years, and that the rapidly
growing city makes additional
traffic policemen imperative.
UnderpaSses as a means oi
keeping traffic accidents down
will not meet with the approval
of the subcommittee. But it is
expected that several overpasses
in congested areas will be urged
Another recommendation which
the subcommittee is entertaining
is the shift of foot police to motor
cycleS-providing the budget per
mits the purchase of additiona
machines, and the raise in salaries
involved.

ADJOURNMENT
DUE TO KILL
SISS0N BILL
Long Delays Foreseen
In Congress Action,
Despite Backing

Regardless of whether or not
the SiSSon bill to repeal the anti
Communist rider has the support
of a majority of the members of
the House and Senate, the meas
ure may be killed by an early ad-
journment of Congress, it was
pointed out by observers today.
They suggest it is quite evident
that the House hearings will take
considerable time. citing the fact
that after yesterdays opening
session further hearings were
postponed until Monday.
According to the subcommittee
schedule, most Of the Monday
hearing will be given over to rep
resentatives Of school teachers
organizations and Members Of
Congress who advocate the repeal
measure, which Is sponsored by
Representative Fred j. SiSson
CD, Of New York.
Many More to Hear
After that is expedited there
will be numerous other organiza-
tions which will want opportunity
20 express their argument for the
bill, and at the conclusion Of the
proponents testimony, the op-
ponentS must be heard.
Besides Representative Thomas
Blanton CD of Texas, author of
the rider, the opposition spokeS-
men will include other members
of Congress, Gen. Amos Fries,
representing various patriotic
groups, and other supporters Of
anti Communist organizations.
All of this, it was suggested,
will take at least several weeks,
and it then will be necessary to
get the bill through the House.
This cannot be done in short
order, but on the SuppoSition
that it is accomplished by the
end o. March. the bill still will
have to run the gauntlet Of the
Senate.
Senator William H. King CD
of Utah, chairman Of the Senate
District Committee, already has
indicated that he is disinclined
to take the matter up with his
committee.
Give It q Hearing
Should the bill get through
the House, however, bearing the
stamp Of approval of the local
school authorities, the Senate
committee ch arm a n probably
would decide to at least give its
advocates a hearing.
Even admitting that the Sen.
ate District Committee should re-
port the measure favorably, it is
difficult to get a local measure
through the Senate as long as
there is any serious objection to
it, and in that event it would
take some time to get the ap.
proval of Senate leaders to take
UP the time of that body to get
a roll call vote on the PROPOSE
ton.
Meanwhile, however, present in,
dications are that the Congress
will end the present session some
time in April or May, and it
would appear that should all
these difficulties be presented
as far as the Sisson bill is con-
cerned, there is little chance for
it's enactment during the present
Congress.
