quiet in the modest one-storied home
owned by his ailing mother. Mrs.
Frances Zioncheck, in the university
district.
A political truce apparently was
'patched up" last night with County
Commissioner John c. Stevenson,
whom zioncheck bitterly assailed on
his arrival home yesterday for having
failed to aid him in his recent Wash

Talks With Stevenson.
Stevenson, a Democratic candidate
for Governor, spent three hours with
Zioncheck shortly after the Repre-
sentative talked about entering the
Eubernatorial race himself.
He introduced both Zioncheck and
his bride on e special radio program
last night.
Later Zioncheck said, enigmatically,
I'm supposed to have turned against
party leaders, but I don't know who
the party leaders are around here
now"
Stevenson refused to pose with the
Representative. because ''phoUogra-
pliers always show me with too much
beard" But of zioncheck, he said,
'Everything's okeh."
Sees Roosevelt Victory.
Zioncheck told his listeners, There
Is but little question Roosevelt will
be reelected He's muffed the ball
many times, but he is a better man
than Landon.
The ideal man for President
doesn't exist. Roosevelt must get rid
of his so-called friends and advisers

Usually informed sources forecast,
however, that Italy would continue
to remain absent from all League
meetings as long as they were at

On the economic side, these sources
stressed the belief Italy would con-

balance, and would be cautious in re-

Not Permitted to 'Parttiicsii- Ii si pate in Any Stec k
 Boom Market, Yet '

WASHINGTON. Aug, 2i The Federal Reserve Board feels it has a tight harness on banksato prevent them, participating. too eagerly in any stock market boom, but who can keep idle funds of, big cor porations from whooping it up on the exchange? . a.
 Behind their frosted-glass doors, many Government officials are known to be wondering just how long these interests with idle bank balances can be expected to keep the balances idle, or, at least keep them out of the stock market.
 Some have concluded that in some respects the situation is about as it was before 1929. They contend that many large corporations be- gan tapering off their expansion programs long before 1929, But the profits continued to roll in, building up big reserves. It is their idea that much of those, reserves lay idle. in banks for so long that corporation managers grew impatient and went into the, market with it.
 Some corporations, they contend, bought out competitors, even if this meant buying up, stock at inflated values. Others lent money to specu- lators, using the banks as agents. It all inflated the boom.

APPLIES CURES

The Federal Reserve has already curbed the banks so they cannot take the part they did before as agent for corporations or others in lending on the market. As a furth- CT brake, margin requirements for spectators have been increased from the approximately 20 to 25 per cent level of 1929 to 55 per cent at preSnt. Then, too, bank reserve re- quirements were increased recent ly by the, Federal Reserve. This foreshortened funds. the banks might have let go as loans to spec
 Ilators.
 But none of these provisions can operate against a corporation. Ger tain Government fiscal officials see nothing to; prevent the corporations lending directly to, speculators or buying out competitors, just as be- fore, and with the same effect on the market. ,s.,es
 X Some of the Governments fiscal brains think. the only curb on such actions is to- take such corporate excesses by. taxation, or. to begin a deflationary program by calling in Government bonds. Both methods work slowly. These individuals con- sider the recent tax bill only a taste of what would be required to curb the corporations if they decided to let. themselves go.
