After the business is over satur. day, Dr. Townsend and the Rev. Smith will speak if there IS time. It is just an exchange of courtesles. We are not welded to Dr. Townsend and he iB not welded to uS."
 Guest of Doctor
 Last month the priest was the platform guest of the doctor at the Townsend convention in public hall here, and delivered Q gensa- tional address in which he called President Roosevelt 0 liar.
 Father Coughlins attitude toward Mir. Roosevelt appeared today to lack oil personal feeling and he on. nounced that he would not require his National Union for Social Jus- tice congressional candidates to repudiate the Roosevelt Garner ticket.
 T do not expect any congressional candidates of the democratic party to come out against Roosevelt and for Lemke," said Coughlin, who al. ready has endorsed the union party candidate and expects his conVen- ton to ratIfy his presidential choice this week.
 162 Already for Y. D. s, J.
 He said ib2 members of congress already were claBsed as supporters of the N U. s. J. lon their record" and that by mid-september the list of candidates endorsing the N. U. s. J. 10 principles and, therefore, supported by Coughlin would number between 206 and 300. About 70 per cent of his congressional sup- port, he said, came from democrats lie expects i86 of the ". U. 8. J. candidates to Do elected.
 Mir. RooseVelt'B unexpectedly an. nounced visit to Cleveland tomorrow aS the ". U. g. J. convention meets caused some persons to suggest he was attempting to steal the local show from the Coughlinites. The priest refused today to accept that Interpretation.
 Tt is not going to make any difference to the ". U. 8. J. con. vention," he said. T think the pres. ident B absolutely honest in his visit here. He B coming to make an in. Spection of flood and WPA work. I would not put any other interpre. tation on t."
 No Amalgamatl0n
 The priest was sharply emphatic in stating there would be no anal. gamation of his organzation with other minority groups such as that led by Townsend.
 "The plan for the speaking tour really was without our full consent" he said. "When I got home from the Townsend convention I found my own engagements stretching east, west, south and north. The tour was proposed and anticipated, but when I saw what had been or. ranged for me at home, 1t was im- possible.
 "There s absolutely no chance of formal coalition with Dr. Town. send. The four groups --- Townsend. Smith, Lemke's Union party and the N. U. s. J.-are together nega- lively - rather than positively.

TAXATION ENDS
 SAYS PRESIDENT
tcOntinusd from PaeO ll

NC0ublnueu ktom Eo.o A.1 treasury experts Co carry out ths suggestions of Morgenthau
 "Any change oe course. would probably be toward reducing some taxes" he said, citing especially taxes where administrative cost virtually wipes out revenue"
 Morsenthau sald that taxes Of this kind were particularly in the ''nuis- anoe" tax category.
 Murgenthau would not discuss which specific taxes he had in mind.
 The cabinet member and the con. greSslonal leaders met with the press after . half hour conference with the President although it was Indicated that tho decision really had been reached before Harrison and Doughton were called Co WASh- ington suddenly yesterday.
 No Tariff Discussion
 Harrison said that there was no discussion of tariff changes due to the drouth situation. The dramatic White House conference broke up three-quarters of an hour before the president was Co leave on Q tour of Pennsylvania and New York flood areas. Harrison, involved in Q hlt- ter primary struggle In Mississippi, was hastily summoned to the White House yesterday and came by plane. Doughton was reached at his Sparta, N, C., home and arrived here only a few minutes before the conference began.
 Among the various nuisance taxes whose abolition may he pushed, are those on gasoline, oil and numerous luxuries.
 The nuisance taxes particularly have brought resentment from peo- pie back homo and the announce ment that some of them might be discarded appeared certain to have Q political affect.
 Harrison and Doughton said that while the study of the tax structure would be inaugurated by members of the congressional joint committee on internal revenue legislation that it was likely open hearings by the senate finance and house ways and means committees would be held later in the fall.
 Morgenthau Cautious
 Morgenthau declined to give any estimates As to the increasing yield in now taxes and cautiously Aviided committing himself on what changes should Do made.
 "As you know" h0 said, "the treas. ury never makes any direct recoIn- mondatlons on tax changes"
 The three conferees met newspa- per men in the office of Secretary stephen Early,
 Doughton bowed to Harrison for most of the questioning but later remarked that "the increase In bust. ness over tho country has two ef- feets: To increase tax revenue ln the treasury and to reduce relief burden, It tends to bring tho treas ury on Q balance"
 Doughton said that the study of tax laws undoubtedly would include the involved corporate tax bill passed at the last session of eon- gress "along with oil other laws"
 The treasury only last week pro- mulgated regulations for operation of the l0Se-37 tax law.

Two speeches have been booked. Friday he will speak briefly at the great lakes exposition in Cleveland. At Chautauqua, N. r., Friday night he will speak on foreign affairs.
 Major Speech
 The Chautauqua speech is exc pected to be Q major one, Mir. Roosevelt is expected not only to refrain the policy of non-interser- ence in the internal affairs of other nations but also to define again on the cardinal points of his good neighbor policy.
 Along this line of travel that weaves in and out of Pennsylvania and New York, It. was assumed that Mir. Roosevelt would make platform appearances. He Is being besieged with requests that he say . few words here and there but because of the primary purpose of the trip is to confer with officials on flood control and inspect flood damage, they will be held to Q minimum.
 In spite of White House inistence that 1t is no political significance to the tour. observers pointed out to the territory he Is invading as an argument that he cannot disregard that he Is in the midst of Q cam- paign for reelection.

 Judge Co Demand Diary
 Judge Knight told the United Press that when court convene' at 10 0. n. a p. m, EDT) he will instruct John Anderson, pr Thorpes attorney. to hand him th' diary forthwith, He said he ther would recess court until 2 p. m. G D, m, EDT) using the four hours to read every word in the diary
 At 2 p. m. C p. m. EDT) he will reeonvene court, he said, and sum- mon Miss Astor, pr. Thorpe, ant their attorneys before him to heal Q reading of o written Tnemoran' dun governing the custody of Mari lyn Thorpe.
 My primary interests are for thu child" hO said, "when the agree ment drawn up between the lawyers Is accepted, I expect 1t will sew uE the Aator-Thorpe case so 1t VII never be Fe.opened."
 Rest assured am not going tc rubber stamp any agreement made by attorneys" Judge Knight eontin' ued.
 "And, contrary to rumors, there has been no pressure oxerted upon me by motion picture interests te end tho case. Any high preSsurinH was placed upon the principals in. volVed, not the court"
 Both Agreed Finally
 Miss Astor and Dr. Thorpe agreed finally on tho future of their child lato yesterday after two days oi pickering and conferences between their attorneys that eentered mostly around one point-the disposition of Miss Astor's diary, in which, ir addition to profesisng her love foI Kaufman, she expressed her ad. miration for pr. Thorpe and con. fessed his rightness In many of theil disagreementS
 Miss Astor did not wish the diary to remain in her former husband'l hands, lest it be used against hel again, Dr. Thorpe wanted to keOE 1t lest Miss Astor attempt again tC obtain full custody of Marllyn. ThC solution was finally solved by c se' cret disposition that will prevent the fears of either party coming true.
 Tt Is part of the agreement" An. derson said, "that no one, save thC litigants, their counsel, and thu court will ever know what becomes Of the diary. It will always remain c mystery"
 The agreement, drawn up by thu lawyers and approved by Douglas L. Edmouds, presiding judge of thC Los Angeles superior court, was un. derstood to provide that Marilyn will be in her mothers custody during the schOol months, and that during all vacations, with the exception oi Christmas. she will be !n her fathers charge.

 Her teachers, governesscs anc nurses will be selected by mutual consent of the parents, while heI expenses will be shared by both at the discretion of Judge Knights court.
