meeting Of the American Dietetic
Association yesterday, recalled the
case Of the butter-saving dietician,
pointed out there was no lowering
of quality in the foods she served,
and declared the test Of any pro.
fessional group Is whether it will
grow in service.

WALLACE SEEKS.
SURPLUS.
CONTROL PLAN.
Urges Scheme to Aid
Ever-NormaI Granay

0N.SJ Marking a second de-
parture from the original Agri-
cultural Adjustment Administra-
ton program Of production con
tro,, Secretary Of Agriculture Wal.
lace today advocated Surplus con-
troll" to protect tie farmer against
losses. and protect the consumer
against shortages.
without such control, he said,
his ever-normal granary plan,
basis Of legislation to be con.
Sidered by the special session OF
Congress. could not be successful.
PAYMENTS HALTED
The first departure from the
A A. A. program. which was held
unconstitutional by the Supreme
Court in January, 1885, was the
abandonment Of benefit payments
for planting soil building crops in
stead Of soil-depleting crops.
The 1888 soil conservation pro-
gram is based on payments on
major crops produced-the soil
depicting crops such as corn. cot
ton, tobacco, rice and potatoes.
Acreage goals were set, and
farmers taking part in the pro
gram would be paid on production
up to that acreage. No goal was
set for wheat, because wheat
farmers, enjoying good prices, OBJ
jected to any limitation.
Surplus control under the ever
normal granary program would
give the Secretary Of Agriculture
power to direct withholding from
the market of commodities pro-
duced in excess of normal require
ments. Farmers refusing to par
ticipate would be subject to fines.
CORN CARRYOvER
Wallace favored a larger carry
over of corn than the 100000, 900
bushel yearly average.
II thing a carry-over Of about
100000, 900 bushels year would
be beneficial" he said. "Short-
age Of corn after the 1884 and
1885 droughts has been largely
responsible for the shortage of
good meats, and the consequent
high prices"
Wallace said a Federal corn
loan this year is urgent and indi-
Gated a loan rate Of 46 cents a
bushel would be justified.

HERE SUNDAY MOTOR FOUND

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. % G.
N.SO O.-The starboard motor of
the San F'rancisco-Los Angeles
airliner, which crashed into San
Francisco Bay two weeks ago,
claiming II lives, was dismantled
and packed in Government-sealed
boxes today, to await inspection
by the Department of Commerce.
The motor was found three
quarters of a mile northwest of
the spot where the plane crashed.
Graphing hooks snagged it on the
floor of San Francisco Bay.
The spot where the motor was
found indicated it left the i'll
fated airliner before the ship
crashed. The ship was flying in
southerly direction as it had
circled over the airport and was
banking for a second approach
to the runway when the mysteri-
GUS crash occurred. Propeller
blades were shorn from the right
motor.
Bodies of three passengers and
three crew members have been re-
covered, but bodies of five pas

Gunderman's defense was to be

Diplomatic circles were abuzz to-

Writing in LIE Figaro, D'Ormes-

and added:
"The press made a mistake in
not giving the death of Ord

official cOmmunique stated Ord
jOnikidze died Of paralysis Of the
heart.
Certainly, we all die of
paralysis of the heart. But why
did the heart of OrdjOnikidze
stop? The entire question is
there. Information from a most

state OrdjOnikidZe was assassin

UNION LEADER
TO TELL MORE
OF RACKETS

NEW YORK, Feb. % U.N.S).
Irving Epstein, who told the jury
in the restaurant racket trial
Saturday that he just missed
going on a "one-way ride" as
guest OF Dutch Schultz gangsters
was ready to enlarge his state
ment today.
One of the eight men under
indictment in the alleged shake
down of restaurant keepers, he
was expected to swear he and
other men affiliated with unions
were as much in fear of being put
or the spot as were cafe opera
tors, who paid out thousands to
stay in business.
Epstein also planned to tell
about the sudden death Of a
brother official, Abe Borson, Sec
retary Of the Cafeteria Workers
Union, on Armistice Day, 1898.
Epstein said Schultz mobsters
convinced him that If he didn't
give up his union they'd settle
for his life. About the time Ep-
stein ran across a booklet on
California sunshine the mobsters
offered to cut off his ears. His
address soon afterward was Los
Angeles.
Returning to New York, Ep.
stein will testify today, after the
hoodlums had been paid $12,500,
things ran smoothly until Ar
miStice day, 1888, when the
"boys" stopped at the Epstein
home to take him "for the air"
UP WestcheSter way. But he
was not at home. Borson was,
and died that day.
