West was certain" for Roosevelt. par
ticularly after the decision Of the Su-
preme Court holding the A. A. A. in
valid. The great States Of the East,
he continued, were hanging in the
balance. He urged that the renomina-
ton of President Roosevelt take place
in Philadelphia as an encouragement
to the Democracy of Pennsylvania and
of the East generally.
Mrs. Miller told the committee that
80 per cent Of the money subscribed
to the fund to bring the Democratic
National Committee to Philadelphia
had been contributed by Republicans.
Il shudder to think what the Re-
publlcans will do with this money if
we return it to them," said Mrs. Miller,
drawing laugh from the committee.
Mrs. Miller called attention to the
fact that two Presidents of the United
States have been renominated in
Philadelphia and reelected there
after, President Grant and President
Mckinley, both Republicans. It was
Grant, she said, who added two
judges to the Supreme Court to get a
legal tender decision" from that
tribunal.
1t is expected that President Roose-
velt will go to Philadelphia to accept
the nomination, as he went to Chi
cago in 1882 for that purpose. The
committee was reminded by Phila-
delphia's mayor, S. Davis Wilson, that
this year would be the 160th ami
versary of the signing of the Declara-
ton of independence in that city.
Mrs. Miller added: We'll ring anew

for political freedom, but economic
freedom"

NO FATALITY IN '35
Record Claimed When Year
Passes Without a Passenger
Death in Entire U. s.

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, January 10.-A new rec
ord-a year without the loss Of life
of a passenger in a train accident
was claimed for American railroads
today.
"Not a single passenger was killed
in an accident on train during 1888"
asserted Harry Guy Taylor, chairman
of the Western Association Of Railway
executives. Contrast this with the
slaughter on the highways"
The National Safety Council has
estimated SO, 400 persons died in motor
vehicle accidents last year.
Taylor said he believed it was the
first time in history that the rail-
roads had achieved q perfect record.
He recalled at least a dozen passen-
gers were killed in railroad mishaps in
the 1933-l934 period.
He pointed to the planning and
safety measures developed during the
last rs years as the major factors in
averting fatalities.

{ TRACK DOWN
VICE RINGS

NEW YORK, April 9 Q.N.S0.
Detectives secured New York to-
day for II ringleaders Of one of
the most incredible vice rackets.
In a drive on the gambling dens
of a widespread political club
gambling syndicate, the police
learned that more than 1000 mar
ried women had been cruely vic
timized and forced into prostitu-
ton.
Existence of the racket came to
light February z, when a woman,
described as the wife of a prom
inent man, informed Police Com
missioner Lewis J. Valentine of
the appalling conditions.
The commissioner at first re-
fused to believe such conditions
possible, but an exhaustive inveSti-
cation proved she was right.
Widespread Racket
Throughout Republican and
Democratic clubs in all of the
city's five boroughs, it was found
the racket flouriShed. Married
women would be lured by taxicab
drivers and professional procurers
to participate in a quiet little
poker game" at some club.
For the use of part of the club
house the gamblers paid rent out
of a kitty" and minimum start
ing stake for chips was $40.
After the victim had lost all
her money-as usually happened
"a loan shark loaned her $50 on
the promise that $3.50 would be
returned. In a short time the vic
tim became hopelessly entangled
in the rings meshes and a
Madam" whose acquaintance the
woman had previously made at
the poker games, would subtly
suggest she go to a disreputable
establishment and entertain"
men of high financial standing
for fees of $40 to $50.
Politicians Protest
The police raids started March
1, with Inspector Michael j.
Murphy, head of the confidential
squad, in charge. 1t is said that
protests Immediately came from
political leaders and threats to
"break" Murphy were heard.

O'CONNOR HITS
FDIC IN BANK
REPORT SCRAP
Controller of Currency
Attacks Agency in
Controversy.
By United Press

By United Press
WASHINGTON, March 14.--Con-
troversy between two government
agencies charged with supervising
the nations banks today developed
when j. F. T. O'Connor, controller
of the currency, attacked the Fed
eral Deposit Insurance Corp. for
allegedly attempting to usurp pow
ers of his Office.
A meeting was sponsored this
week by the F'DIC to simplify bank
call reports. Mr.. O'Connor said to-
day that he had no prior notice of
the meeting and that "the forms
of call reports under the Federal
law are required to be prepared I'M
der the direction and authorization
of the controller of the currency
for national banks"
Attending the meeting were rep
reSentatives of the FDIC, the Fed
eral Reserve Board, the American
Bankers Association, the National
Association of State Bank Super
visors, and the National Associa ton
of Bank Auditors and Controllers.
1t was learned that member of
the Board of Governors of the Fed
eral Reserve System, who attended,
reported to Mr.. O'Conpor's office
shortly thereafter and informed him
of what had taken place.
Treasury officials contended that
the new plan favored by representa-
tives of the various banking groups
was neither more simple nor did it
do away with unnecessary red tape
as had been claimed by the FD1C.

RISE 10 CENTS
Advance Carries Top Price
to S11.15, Highest in
Several Weeks.

Although the usual weekend dull
ness prevailed in the pork market
today at the indianapolis Union
Stockyards, prices were generally
10 cents higher than yesterdays
best average. The moderate upturn
was influenced somewhat by ex-
tremely light receipts.
Strictly good and choice classes
were carried UP to $11.15, the high
est level reached since early Feb
ruary. Receipts today were esti-
mated at 1000, compared with 1000
in the preceding session. Approx
mately 220 head of hogs were held
over from yesterday.
The general bulk of 100 to 225
pounds, sold at Sill to $11.10.
Heavier kinds, from $50 to 300
pounds, cashed in at 5000 to $10.55,
while 300 to 400 pounds brought
1910 to 5000. In the lightweight
division, slaughter pigs from 1870 TO
100 pounds, were salable at SOTO TO
$1,000. Packing sows held at SO to
$3.50.
Trading was scare and unchanged
in the cattle market. Compared
with week ago beef steers, cows
and heifers were strong to 25 cents
higher. Best steers held at S11,
while bulk ranged from 81 to $3.50.
Receipts were so. Vealers also were
stationary with hardly enough stock
on hand to establish a market.
Lambs were nominal. Receipts were
