RELEASE MILLION
BALES OF COTTON
Wallace and Jones Approve Plan
of Commodity Credit
Corporation.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
A million bales Of cotton will be
released by the Commodity Credit
Corporation to the producers who bor-
rowed money on it-thus allowing
that much cotton to flow back into
the regular market channels.
The producers or theeir agents will
pay the corporation an amount equal
to a quarter of a cent less than the
market price at which middling seven
eights staple cotton stands on the day
before the cotton is claimed by the
producer.
The plan was announced yesterday
by the Commodity Credit Corporation
with the approval of Secretary Wallace
and Jesse Jones, chairman of the
r. F. C.
Agriculture Department experts had
estimated there was a market need
for a million bales of cotton. They
arrived at that figure by Subtracting
the amount produced this year from
the consumption needs estimated for
the year.
The announcement was made soon
after the Senate Agriculture Commit
tee had approved a measure intro
duced by Chairman Smith calling for
the release of cotton to farmers by
the corporation.
The cotton affected by the order is
that held under the 12-cent loan Of

SPRINGFIELD. ILL.,. April 4.-Pay-
ment of regular civil service employees
under Gov. Horner was started today
by Treasurer John Stelle, who had
held up the pay rolls since Wednesday
on charges of political padding in the
Democratic campaign.
The treasurer's Office announced all
unquestioned employees would receive
their April salaries by Monday at the

Attorney General otto Kerner at
Chicago ruled that Stelle should not
hold up the pay Of employees not in
volved In the padding charges.
The State treasurer charged that
Gov. Homer had padded the Code De-
partment pay roll with the names Of
5000 campaign workers.
In the controversy. the Governors
spokesmen retaliated that Stelle and
Auditor Edward j. Barrett, affiliated
with the Kelly Nash Democratic organ
ization which opposes the faction led
by Gov. Horner, seeking renomina-
tion, had padded their own pay rolls.

PRESIDENT TURNS
THOUGHTSASH0RE
Prepares to Lay Fishing Rod
Aside Next Week-Signs
Housing Bill.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
MIAMI, Fla, April 4.-Well tanned
and refreshed by two weeks on the
open seas of this Southern cline,
President Roosevelt turned thoughts
tonight to a return ashore and possi-
bly, to the busy days ahead in this
campaign year.
His ship, the U. S. S. Potomac, lay
within striking distance of the United
States coast line and there we're indi-
cations the President was preparing
for a debarkation early next week.
Fishing Luck Good.
Reports from the happy vacationing
President have indicated one of the
most pleasurable of these annual
cruises, with fishing luck exceptionally
good and the weather almost ideal.
The President moved today to
Southwest Point, New Providence
Island, farther north. but the wind was
too strong during most Of the day for
fishing.
He sent the following message to
Marvin H. Mcintyre, a secretary:
Caught two bone fish and other
varieties yesterday at Middle Blight.
Moved this morning TO Southwest
Point, New Providence Wind too
strong for fishing at present. but may
moderate in late afternoon"
Mail by Plane.
Already some of the work ahead has
been tackled by Mr.. Roosevelt. Naval
planes brought To him the latest busi-
ness and mail from the White House.
He quickly approved the act EXTEND
ing for a year title of the housing
program authorizing loans for recon-
struction and modernization Of homes.
Mr.. Roosevelt has left with experts
the problem of drafting a long-term
housing program but there seems con-
siderable doubt that this will be put
into form in time for action at this
session.
Turning again toward the White
House the President undoubtedly will
lend every assistance to the Congress
in bringing about the earliest possible
conclusion Of its work which Is now
focused on the tax raising measure.
But throughout the two weeks at
sea, Mr.. Roosevelt has not spoken a
word on public affairs and has con-
fined his actions to routine and
emergency measures which were dis
patched principally through the use
of wireless from the accompanying
destroyers.
Mcintyre is Liaison.
Contact has been maintained at
all times between the White House
and the presidential ship. Marvin
Mcintyre, one of his secretaries es-
tablished at temporary headquarters
here, has been the liaison.
Mr.. Roosevelt has sent a personal
report almost daily of his activities.
However. only bare operations reports
from naval officers have been received
during the last "a hours until after
noon today.
The anchorage Of the Potomac dur
ing this period has been at Middle
Bright, Andors Island, about $50
miles of shore from here.
The President has indicated desire
to visit briefly at his Warm Springs.

tors Of the liner MORO Castle, swept

C00PERS SEEK TO VOID
BEER CAN TRADEMARK
q. S. Patent Office Asked to Cancel
"Keglined' Name as

INDIANAPOLIS. April 4.-Thomas
L. Gaukel of st. Louis, secretary of
the beer keg division Of the Associated
Cooperage Industries of America. an
nounced following a meeting of the
division here today that petition has
been filed asking the United States
Patent once to cancel the trade
mark "Keglined" used by the Ameri-
can Can Co. as applied to cans for
beer.
Gaukel said the wooden keg manu-
features contend the trademark Ia
deceptive in that it tends to convey
the impression that beer in cans so
labeled is protected by a keg-like
wooden lining. The inside Of beer cans
is lacquer coated, Gaukel asserted.
The petition also contends the trade
mark gives the public the impression
that the cans contain draught beer,
whereas they actually contain pasteur.

said, however. that the action was
taken to show "the whole picture"
When the size of the payments is
measured against the amount OF acre
age taken out of production OF surplus
crops" Murphy said, lit will all be
shown to be rational"
Chairman Smith of the Senate Ag-
riculture Committee indicated Wal
lace had withdrawn his objections. at
least in part, and now was very
anxious to get action on the problem. "
Cost to Be Computed.
The committee authorized Smith to
report out the resolution tomorrow,
coupled with a statement of the cost
of getting the data, and the time in
which it might be expected. He said
Secretary Wallace had indicated to
him that due to filing systems, or
some other factor, it would be about
as easy" to get the reports on all
payments above 1000 as to segregate
only those above $4,000 year.
The committees unexpected and
almost unanimous vote to override the
Presidents veto of the seed and feed
loan bill came with II of the 19 COM
mittee members present.
Smith obviously was pleased with
the committee action, which was a
reversal Of the position the majority
of its members took weeks ago in re-
fusing to heed his plea to override
the veto.
"I rejoice in being vindicated," he
said.
Senator Wheeler, Democrat, of Mon
tana, who made the motion in COM
mittee to report out the veto for over
riding, expected it would be advanced
on the floor by Smith early this week.
Difficulty in Procuring Loans.
Both Smith and Wheeler stated that
regardless of the fact President Roose-
welt had set aside $4,000 900 of relief
money allocated to seed loans. the
farmers in the drought areas and in
some other sections as well had been
unable to get the loans.
THE Farm Credit Administration
recently ruled" Wheeler said, that
any one receiving resettlement pay
ments could not also receive seed
loans. The result was that 10000
farmers in the drought areas. who
most needed the loans, could not get
them. It meant they could not even
plant the crops that ultimately would
take them of relief"
Smith added that appeals had come
from almost every State" because,
he explained. loans were not avail
able to those who were receiving re-
lief payments from other sources.
Action on a presidential veto Is
privileged matter, Smith said, and
could be brought up at any time next
week regardless of what subject was
under consideration by the Senate.
