ANOTHER WEEK
GIVEN COURT
PLAN FOES.
Friends to Get 3 Days
Before Committee
Ends Hearing
By WILLIAM X. HUTCHINSON
International News Service

International News Service
Foes of President Roosevelt's
court plan were given another full
week by the Senate Judiciary Com
mittee today for presentation of
witnesses.
Proponents then will be given
three days to offer rebuttal testi.
mony and the public hearings will
be closed.
This decision was reached by
the committee in executive session,
while both sides studied a new
compromise, offered by Senator
McGill CD of Kansas, which was
designed to give each President
the chance to inject new blood"
into the Supreme Court.
Two in Each Four Years
The McGill proposal would pro-
vide for the appointment of two
new justices to the Supreme Court
every four years, if two or more
Of the sitting justices were over rs
and failed to retire. It would pro-
vide flexible membership by pro-
hibiting the filling of any va
cancies, except to maintain the
court at a minimum membership
of nine, and limit its maximum
membership at any time to is jus
tees.
This would enable President
Roosevelt to name two new JUS
tices at once, if two Of the four
present justices now over IS failed
to retire. Thereafter, if two Of
the justices over rs did retire, the
President would be prohibited
from filling their vacancies. If
the third and fourth retired, the
President would be empowered to
fill their vacancies in order to
maintain the courts membership
at nine justices.
Wheeler Remarks Deleted
Meanwhile, a sensation was
created by the deletion in Kan
SaS from a neWSreel of q predic-
ton by Senator Wheeler CD of
Montana, leading opponent of the
court plan, that he would be
stripped Of patronage for his
stand.
Announcement of the deletion,
ordered by the Kansas State
Board Of Review. was made by the
newsreel's headquarters here.
Wheeler, indignant over the &C
ton, intimated orders" had been
sent from Washington to the
Kansas censorship board. He OBJ.
served the incident qualities the
governor of that State for the
dictatorship Of the United States. -
Text of Observations
Wheeler'S speech in the film, to
which the cenSors took exception,
was:
you can say that the priv
ilege of appointing pOStmaSterS
will not be accorded me. You
can say that I'll get no more
projects for my State. You can
say what you please, but 1 say
to you and to Mr.. Farley, to
everybody else, that will vote
against this proposition because
it is morally wrong: it is morally
unsOund; it is a dangerous pro-
ceeding."

HUGE BOMBER
TO VISIT D. {.

The mightiest fighting plane
ever constructed is nearing com
pletion at the Boeing factory in
Seattle. The flying fortress will
be given its first test flight within
two weeks, and is expected to visit
Boiling Field later.
Although specific data and
plans regarding the craft have
been confined to a few Air Corps
officers, it was learned that the
famous BIT, which flew from
Seattle to Dayton in nine hours,
will be topped in both size and
speed.
The BIT, which was the first
bomber to become popularity known
as the flying fortress" has a wing
spread of los feet and is 20 feet
long. It has flown at speeds ex-
ceeding $50 miles per hour. and
can carry a ton Of bombs for 5000
miles without stop.
The new bomber is powered with
four twin-WaSp radial engines,
each developing 1000 horsepower,
and according to Army officials
will "Startle the world" with its
ability to climb to higher attitudes
than any previous military craft.
It will be the first fighting craft
ever built with living accommoda-
lions aboard. It contains sleeping
quarters, lavatory, kitchenette and
spacious working room.

CLEVELAND, April II G.NSO.
A 19-year-old "petting party" ban
dit. identified as George Cerven-
ski, was dead here today because
he tried to hold up the wrong
couple, a patrolman and his wife.
For the last two weeks Patrol
man Earl Dietrich and another
policeman have been waiting for
a youth who has terrorized couples
in parked automobiles in Gordon
Park. Last night Dietrich and his
wife, returning from a movie, de-
cided to attempt a capture.
With another patrolman in an
auto some distance away, Mr.. and
Mrs. Dietrich parked in a lonely
section of the park. Before long
a youth appeared, brandished a
small revolver, and said:
"Give me all your money or
I'll blow your brains out"
Dietrich fired once with his serv-
ice revolver, and the youth fell
dead, a bullet through his chest.

FIDELITY FATE
UP TUESDAY

The fate Of the new First Fed
eral Savings and Loan Association,
successor to the defunct Fidelity
Building and Loan Association,
which closed last August following
the indictment of President Fred
B. Rhodes for forgery, will be de-
cided next Tuesday when the
Home Loan Bank Board will hold
a formal public hearing in the
board room of the new Post Office
Building.
Barring unforeseen incidents, it
is believed that no trouble will be
encountered in so far as the grant
ing of charter is concerned. How
ever, one group Of depositors is ex-
pected to voice protest against
the directorate of the new organ
iZatin as it numbers among its
personnel, four members Of the
Fidelity board Of directors. The
protesting parties have declared
that they mean nothing personal
in their intended attack, but that
public confidence would be
greater If a clean sweep were
made"
Following the granting Of the
charter, which would set the ma
chinery in motion that eventually
will enable depositors of the closed
association to obtain IS per cent
of their investment, or shares in
the new Federal in a like amount,
several routine steps must be taken
which will probably consume a
months time before investors re-
ceive "the payoff."

School Conference here last night.
Addressing the opening session
Of the two-day conference in the
Langley Junior High School, DR..
Briggs referred to set of question
naires distributed to teachers. OF
100 returned. it was learned that
the teachers themselves believe the
junior high program has glaring
faults, he declared. Among the
80 deficiencies listed by the teach
erS were too much teacher.prepa-
ration in the upper grades, and
a large gap between elementary
and junior high, and between
junior and senior high.

Wage Garner Can't
Meet Drain Of Big
Deficit, He Warns
BY WILLIAM s. NEAL
International News Service

Rising opposition to enactment
Of a new tax bill in the present
session of Congress Spurred con-
gressional leaders today to lay
new plans to slash expenditures.
Sentiment against a new tax
bill was disclosed in both the Sen
ate Finance and House Ways and
Means committees, whose duty 1t
Is to frame new revenue measures.
Representative Doughton Cd
of North Carolina, chairman OF
the Ways and Means Committee,
declared emphatically for a dras-
tic cut in Governmental expendi-
lures as a means of bringing them
in line with revenues. He pointed
to the Presidential order to all
departments to cut expenditures
as an indication that the Admin
istration believed it could save
money.
Opposes Tax Bill
He declared:
81 am for retrenchment In
Governmental expenditures.
do not want any tax bill at this
session. We cannot say posi-
lively what must be done In the
future, but I hope we can avoid
It,"
Doughton, who joined with Sec
rotary Morgenthau and Senator
Harrison CD of Mississippi,
Finance Committee chairman, in
a statement last summer saying
now new taxes would be needed;
said that cit doesn't look well to
say every year that there will be
no tax bill and then enact one"
Only Wage Garner Left
While many experts hold that
Federal taxes have reached point
where the only big source Of rev.
enue left are the small salaried
man and wage Garner, Doughton
expressed doubt that enough rev.
enue could be obtained from this
source to meet a big Treasury
deficit.
A picture of the spending situa-
ton was given to Congress by Rep
resentative Cannon CD, Of Mis-
souri,, chairman of the House APP
propriations subcommittee on the
agriculture supply bill. He said:
"ObServers estimate that for
nine months the Government
has discussed approximately
$500, 100000, as compared with
$4,000, 100000 for the same Pc
Rod last year."
'It is estimated that for the
current year expenditures will
exceed those of last year. Dur.
ing the month of January dis
bursementS reported by the Sec
rotary OF the Treasury approx.
mated $685., 100000 as cOntraSted
with about S372,5OO, 900 the pre-
Ceding January.
DISCREPANCIES NOTED
early in the year tax receipts
were reported to be $3.50, 100000
under the published estimates.
A little later they were said to
be falling short by about $780,
100000. In March they were
falling 400,O0O,OOO below. And
now we are told that they are
close to $500, zoo, 900 short of the
amounts promised by Treasury
experts, with every prospect Of
increasing discrepancies. The
enactment Of legislation now
pending in Congress and its COM
mitteeS could easily precipitate
. total deficit apprOximating
$3,0OO,0OO,O 0O."

Perhaps he is symbol of something
imperative to the progress Of the human
race. Mr.. Hofmann was the only private
pupil Anton Rubinstein ever was willing
to accept. 1t therefore may be suggested
that he bridges the music of yesterday
with the music of today. Similarly, he
links the past and the present in man.
ners, In the tradition Of courtesy and
kindliness without which this earth,
however rich and rife with power, would
be a dreadful place.
By his example Mr.. Hofmann has
served. His art is marvellous, yet the
artist himself is more notably wonderful.
The laurels he has gained have not
been snatched from the brow of any
fellow-creature. Rather, they have been
created out of the intangible materials OF
vision and toll dream and lifelong
labor His victory, then, is triumph
for the good ideal of civilization slowly
builded by selfless souls in the interest
of beauty and peace and love- For such
fruition discipline as well as inspiration
is wanted
