manent neutrality legislation go by the

The farm bill as rewritten by the
senate agriculture committee Is, based
on the soil erosion prevention scheme.
Some Democrats Joined with many Re-
publicans in opposing the measure, one
of them being Senator Walsh of Mas
sachusetts. In statement issued to
the press he declared 1t was "dan-
gerous'' bill comforting "autocratic and
blanket authority on the secretary Of
agriculture. He said the measure was
neither valid in law nor valid in
economies"
Chairman Doughton Of the house
ways and means committee said he
expected definite word from the White
House or treasury soon on the amount
and kind of taxes that might be i'm
posed to finance the new farm pro-
gram.
Speaker Byrns said he could see no
reason why the tax measure should
not emerge from the committee by the
end of February.
He and Doughton insisted they had
no advance information on what the
administration might propose. Many
congressman who are usually well in
formed said they looked for recon-
mendation for levies to raise more
than $5OO,OOO,OOO, perhaps through ex-
else taxes.

tence for their part in the vote recount
conspiracy.
For O'Hara, the verdict came as
the elimination of a series of calami-
ties in a brief political career. Last
November a jury in Macomb county,
adjacent to Wayne, found him guilty
of bribery in a drainage transaction in
connection with real estate deals he
had made before 1882 when he en-
tered politics and was elected Wayne
county clerk. He awaits sentence
under that conviction. After conviction
he was removed from office.
In the recount case O'Hara was found
guilty on three counts, permitting
others to alter ballots, conspiring to
permit others to alter ballots, and con-
spring to permit others to conduct
the recount in an unlawful manner and
change the result Of the November,
1884, election.

Great Britain Rushes
Rearmament Program

TT THERE must be another war in
Europe, Great Britain proposes to
be in readiness. The government is
hurrying up its rearmament program,
which will be financed by a loan of
probably about $1,000 OO.O 900. Plans for
the expansion and modernization Of
the army, navy and air force will be
submitted to parliament early in
March, and it is said will include
mechanization of the entire army. I'M
petus to the work was given by the
latest statement attributed to Mussolini
that the Italo-Ethiopian war may yet
be a worldwide disaster"
There were indications that II Duce
was looking more favorably on sug-
gestions for peace, and SO some OBJ.
servers predicted that the extension
of sanctions against Italy would be
delayed. The Italian armies in Ethi-
opia, however, were continuing their
activities, one of their latest exploits
being an attack on Dessye by seven
planes. For an hour high explosive
bombs were ralned on that town, which
is the field headquarters OF Halle
Selassie.

ageur. In his boyhood Curtis was a
jockey, and later reporter. Having
studied law, he became prosecutor
at the age of twenty-four in Shawnee
county, Kansas, and was elected to
congress in 1892. He was made SEN
ator in 1907, was defeated in 1912,
and two years later was again elected
senator. He was elected Vice Presi-
dent on the ticket headed by Herbert
Hoover, and was renominated for that
position in 1882.
Mr.. Curtis was greatly liked by his
associates in Washington and his death
caused genuine grief. President Roose-
welt said:
II am deeply distressed to learn of
the sudden passing of my old friend,
Charles Curtis. Whether they knew
him as a senator, as the Vice Presi-
dent of the United States, or as the
man he was in his own right, his le-
gion of friends will remember him,
always affectionately, and will mourn
his passing"
Vice President Garner said:
II was always fond of him. I was
associated with him in the house and
senate. He was a fine man and a
good friend"
Funeral services for Mr.. Curtis and
the interment were in Topeka, Kan.

Rigid Policy Announced
on FILA Mortgages

HOUSEHoLDERS defaulting on gov
l L ernment-guaranteed renovation
and mortgage notes will be no more
gently treated by the Federal Housing
administration than are tax delin-
quents by the Treasury department.
Stewart Mcdonald, FILA admlnistra-
tor, says there has been a general mis-
understanding Of this matter. and so
he enunciates this policy:
"When a borrower under the mod
ernization credit plan defaults on a
loan, the lending institution files claim
with the housing administration for
the insurance on the loan. The matter
of collecting the defaulted obligation
then is turned over to the Federal
Housing administration.
SIN such cases it will be the policy
of the Federal Housing administration
to be just as rigid as the Treasury de-
partment In the collection of taxes.
The collection machinery is well organ
lied and, while every reasonable con-
sideration will be given to borrowers
in default, the public must not get
the impression that the housing adj
ministration will be lax in performing
its duty.
'sThere is no reason to assume that
borrowers In default will be treated
like tax eyaders. but rather along the
same lines as an individual who 10 in

Relief Given Industrial
and Farming States

INDUSTRIAL states, such as Illinois,
New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio,
although they pay most Of the internal
revenue taxes, receive much less Of
federal relief largesse than such agri-
cultural states as North and South Da-
kota, Mississippi, Alabama, New Mex
leo, Arkansas and Arizona. This was
pointed out in statement released
by the Illinois Manufacturers associa-
ton which compares the internal rev.
enue collections Of the various states
with the amount each state received in
relief funds for year ending June 30,
1885.
Illinois collected 1925, 1888 and re-
ceived in federal relief grants only
$113,1S5,365 or 35 per cent Of what 1t
sent to the United States treasury.
New York collected 1872, 473, 493 and
got back $262, 86S, 65S or 80 per cent Of
what 1t sent to the United States treas
ury.
Pennsylvania and Ohio did somewhat
better. Pennsylvania collected $244,-
355,727 and received in relief funds
$173, ISL 1882 or II per cent. Ohio col
lected $164, O79,273 and received $107,-
7O2,953 or 66 per cent.
South Dakota received $27,565, 643
and collected only $1,540,795. In other
words, South Dakota got back from
the United States government nearly
eighteen times the amount paid in in
ternal revenue.
North Dakota got approximately $25
for each $1.75 paid in taxes, receiving
$25,OS7, 1927 and collecting only $1,74S,-
657.
Mississippi received $1S,745,417 in
relief funds or nearly seven and one
half times the amount collected in in
ternal revenues.

assailed the New Deal. In the petit
ton, which Raskob described as New
Deal persecution" Mr.. du Pont was
alleged to have understated his 1929
income by $780,, 1892 and an addi-
tional tax of $617,316 was asked. In
the amended petition accusing Mr..
Raskob, 1t was alleged that he and the
industrialist engaged in fictitious"
sales of securities, one to the other,
to a total of about $30.O00,000 for the
purpose of showing losses.

CENATOR vANDENBERG of Michi-
" gan has grave doubts Of the eco
nomic necessity or value of the ship
canal that is being dug across central
Florida, and offered in the senate COM
merce committee resolution for inves-
tigation by a special committee. In
support of his move he produced let
tiers from eleven companies operating
steamships saying they would not use
the canal even if no tolls were charged.
They asserted the expense Of employ
ing canal pilots added to the risk Of
damage to ships would Offset saving
in navigation costs.
Work was started some time ago on
the canal, which, If completed, will
cost between $140,O00,O00 and $780,

ARGENTINE WELCOME
AWAITS ROOSEVELT
Officials Hope President Will
Change Plans and Dock at
Buenos Aires.
a. the Associated Press.

B. the Associated Press.
BUENOS AIRES, November 21.-
Franklin D. Roosevelt will become
the second Roosevelt to be honored
by the Argentine Social Museum We'll
fare Organization upon his arrival
here for the Inter-American Peace
Conference, officials announced today.
Theodore Roosevelt was similarly
honored during his visit to Argen-
tina in 1918.
Although the tentative program for
President Roosevelt's reception was
virtually completed today, Argentine
government officials still expressed
hope the visiting Chief Executive
would change his plans and dock
directly at Buenos Aires.
Present plans call for him to jour
ney on past the capital to Mar del
Plata, 230 miles below Buenos Aires,
and return to the conference city by
rail.
Officials said they not only wanted
the President to spend as much time
as possible in Buenos Aires, but also
that a larger crowd would witness
his arrival at the water front than
at the railroad station.
Carlos Saavedra Lamas, Argentine
foreign minister, will greet the Presi-
dent at Mar del Plata if he decides
to land there, while President Agus-
tin P. Justro will meet him upon his
arrival in Buenos Aires.
