STILL HOUNDS HIM

LIVERPOOL, Jan. 8. (UP)-
The Lindberghs have found the
privacy for which they fled Amer
lea and sought quiet sanctuary IN
England-as far as the English
are concerned. The only news
papermen trailing Col. Charles
A. Lindbergh and his wife and
small son, Jon, last night were
Americans. All British report
ers have left.
English newspapers now are
printing only the scantiest para
graphs on the famous flyign fam,
lily, indicating the Lindberghs Will
be given the fullest privacy.
TO keep out the American re-
porters-and to prevent question
ing of hotel employees who serve
the Lindberghs in their secluded
suite at thei rhotel here, a private
detective paced before their
rooms. The Lindberghs have left
their suite only once since they
arrived Tuesday after a ten-day
voyage from New York on a
freighter. That was for two

Inside the suite, Lindbergh was
reported chatting at his self-im-

the floor with his hands behind
his back between numerous tele-

DRASTIC NEUTRALITY
LAWS ADVANCED
1885, United PresO

Copyright, 1885, United fress'
WASHINGTON, Jan. 8. (UP).
New, more stringent neutrality
legislation designed to keep the
United States out of foreign wars
was advanced by two groups to-
day at reconvening of the 74th
congress.
The senate munitions commit
tee group, headed by Senator'S
Gerald P, Nye, R., N. D., and Ben
nett C. Clark, D., Mo-, put for
ward a "cash and carry" neutral
ity law to replace temporary peace
safeguards which expire Feb. ~.
Another, and somewhat similar.
proposal for which administration
support was claimed was advanced
by Chairman Key Pittman of the
senate foreign relations committee
and Chairman Sam D. McReynolds
of the house foreign affairs COM
mittee.
Pittman and McReynolds' pro.
gram was developed at a series OF
conferences with oecreIdry "a
State Cordell Hull, interspersed by
conferences between Hull and the
President. Their program would
provide rigidly for an equal applI-
cation of all embargoes to all bel
ligerents.
The state department, which
heretofore has opposed mandatory
legislation, was understood to have
won it's point that the President
should have discretionary author
ity to place embargoes. on such
essential war materials as he
deemed necessary to make TINS
country's neutrality invulnerable.
The munitions committee pro,
posal, it was learned, is designed
to prevent the use Of American
ships or money to provide any ma
terials for any nation at war; it
seeks to shut off financial aid as
we'll as the supplying Of war ma
terials.

$50 MORE DEAD in
EARLY HOURS OF 1895

CHICAGO, Jan. 3. (UP).-Au-
tomobile deaths increased slightly
in 1885, reaching an all-time high,
according to corrected figures an
nounced last night by the National
Safety Council.
The council had anticipated a
slight decrease from 1934's record
would be shown but reported last
night that "there was an increase
in fatalities of approximately one
per cent because of bad conditions
during the last quarter of 1885, in
certain sections of the country
from which reports only recently
became available, particularly in
southern states where motor We
hicle travel increased more than
the national average"
The advances sent the 1885
death toll to approximately SO, 400
compared with SO, 101 in 1884.
"In spite of somewhat unexpect-
ed increase" the council said, sit
was pointed out that the popula-
ton of the country also increased
approximately one per cent last
year so that the death rate per
10000 population was 26.5 IN
1885. the. same as in 1884"
There also was a 4.3 per cent
advance in automobile registra-
ton in 1886 and gasoline con-
sumption went up 6 per cent.
eff fatalities had increased as
much as motor car registration, y
the council report added, last
year the 1885 toll would have
been 81, 500 instead of 36,400 and

partisan debate recessed until this

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3. (UP).
The 74th congress reconvened to-
day at noon to act on legislation
of vast Importance and to speed
the New Years political warfare
toward the 1886 presidential cleo
ton.
The most resounding political
splurge centered around the Presi-
dents announced intention to de-
liver his message at a joint night
session in order to gain the great
est possible publicity for the New
Deal.
Republicans protested the PreSi-
dents maneuver as purely politi-
cal and threatened to object, al
though they knew the Democratic
majority was ready to override
them. 80
Congress will have to consider
such vital measures as the bonus
bill, more satisfactory neutrality
law, and the budget.
AS congress met the New Deal
was on the defensive and Presi-
dent Roosevelt was engaged in a
dramatic maneuver to get his story
before the people.
Roosevelt will address the ma
ton before an unprecedented joint
session at 9 o'clock tonight.
Delivery of his annual message
on the state of the nation at that
hour is timed to catch the voters
sitting by the living room radio.
A weekend adjournment will
bring the second session of the
74th congress back to business
Monday to hear the Presidents
budget message. On that day,
also. the supreme court may rule
on the AAA processing taxes.
The nation has awaited the
presidential message with dreadful
excitement. The capital is tense,
but better business has dispelled
at least some of the gloom of re-
cent years.
