Property Not For Sale

EFOpGTty NOt tOT SSbC
 Although 1t is reported several offers have been made recently for the purchase of Venta Hall at l03 Green street, headquarters of the Lithuanian Citizens Political Club, William Jokubonig, president of the organization, denies the property is for sale. The largest of such offers is said to have been advanced by the Provincial di Foggia society, whiBh is seeking permanent quar- terO in which to revive their activi- ties, which were somewhat crippled following the loss by foreclosure of Liberty Hall.
 MT. Jokubonis admitted the build ing was in demand and has been sought by several other organiZa- tions for headquarters, but said the general membership of the L. 0. P. Club which exceeds 1000 are more anxious to slnaintain their present location for their own needs, rather than erect . new building. The club recently observed its 47th anniver- sarN and as one oe the largest and pOpuIhr OIBhJu1dtiUIlS VI AlVHunh1uu extraction in the United States. It Is financially independent and main tairs 6 benefit fund. MT. Jokubonis added in event other organizations desire the temporary use of the building, 1t will be available for moderate rental fee.
 Tn event of the failure of the Provincia di Fogia society to pur- chase the Green street location out right, this organization may pur- chase land at Congress and Wash- ington avenues for the purpose of erecting Q new building. 1,

ALBANY, N. Y, Nov. 16 G.N.S0.
Armed with machine guns, rifles
and orders to shoot to KILL" police
today began the greatest manhunt
in the history of New York State
for three desperate kidnapers who
escaped from the Onondaga
County Penitentiary at GAINESVILLE.
While $50 State troopers dashed
along highways a small army Of
Albany police, believing the men
may make a sudden sortie into
this city, their home, guarded
every municipal entrance.
Two of the fugitives, John Obey
and Percy Geary, are Albany resi-
dents. The third, Harold Red"
Crowley, lived in New York city.
Authorities here made no secret
Of their belief that the trio, if
trapped, will fight to the death.
Facing sentences totaling 1872 years
for the 1888 kidnapping of John
j. O'Connen, jr., nephew of the
Albany county Democratic leader,
the three men have guns which
police are sure they will try to use.
A police guard was furnished
for Young O'Connell, who now is
married and the father of a young
baby. Also guarded are the homes
of Edward J. and Daniel P. O'Con-
nell, uncles of the youth.

The Presidents Message

What strikes this writer forcibly about the Presi-
dents opening to the special session of Congress
is its frankness concerning the business recession.
D, A lot of Old Dealers have been predict
ROOSeOeH ing for years that the moment
Frnnkness the New Deal should into a spell of
hard times President Roosevelt would take
to doing Hoover ctassuring every week that
prosperity just around the depressing the stock
market by statements intended to buoy it up, telling
that all these business declines just natural readjust
ments.
The Presidents message of Yesterday takes no such
Tone Mr. Roosevelt frankly admits that since August
there has been marked recession industrial production
The present decline has not reached serious proper
tion But it has the effect of decreasing the national in
come-and that is a matter of definite
Mr. Roosevelt doesn't go from this point into denunci
alton of anybody who business going get Stacker
vet the favorite technic of the old Harding Coolidge

loaded picture of our entire business situation

ars NEW aSsan or in GaPta ZAP Speculation
The virtue of that kind of pep-tak is that it is true
From this calm survey of the recession the President
proceeds to list what the Administration Congress
to do about it.
Inv Pofor,, Admitting that there may be mis-

the President promises Administration
efforts to eliminate them without however causing
b REDUCTION in t the ] "a increase
He promises strenuous efforts balance the Federal
Government budget But he also tosses cheerful plague
O. both your houses at a) defatons who would balance
the budget at whatever in human suffering and M
natonists who want the Government spend borrowed
billions, forgetfu of the budget until the dollar becomes
not worth the paper it is printed

The President calls again. too, for abolition of child

and some day, think this crusade of his will win.
Altogether this message strengthens the feeling we've

LYNCH BILL row
may TIE SENATE
in TIGHT SNARL.
UnruIy, Lacks Program,
Fight Impends
BY EDWARD B. LOCKETT

/
U.N.S0 Unruly and for the
moment without a program of
procedure, the Senate slipped into
special session harness today, al.
ready plagued by a bitter row
within the unwieldly Democratic
majority.
On the surface, leaders smooth.
ed things over as best they could,
but backstage, forces supporting
the anti-lynching legislation car
ried on a rough-and-tumble fight
with reorganization bill supporters
led by Senator Byrnes CD of
South Carolina.
ANTI-LYNCH BILL ENTERS
Leaders want to take up the re-
organization bill first of all, and
debate it either to conclusion and
action, or until the new agricul-
tural legislation can be brought to
the floor. But Senators Wagner
CD Of New York, and Van Nuys
CD of Indiana, co-sponsors of
the anti-lynching bill, are deter
mined their measure shall get
precedence over the other.
The indications seemed to prom
Use victory to the reorganization
group, for the Democratic leader,
Senator Barkley, of Kentucky, and
other Administration lieutenants,
favor this course. Wagner and
Van Nuys contend that because
antilynching was placed second on
the agenda by agreement reached
at the conclusion of the last ses-
sion, and because the subject given
first place, agriculture, is not ready
for debate, the anti-lynching bill
rightfully comes first.
The Washington times., 1937-11-16
MAY ASK PLAN VOTE

Apparently, leaders planned for
Barkley, after he gets the floor to-
day, to yield to Byrnes, so he can
move to bring up the reorganiza.
tion bill. That will start the ball
rolling, and the Senate probably
will be called on for a record vote
to determine whether this shall be
done. " T..
Even most of the Southern Sena.
tors, who have fought the anti
lynching legislation consistently,
appeared resigned to its passage
during the special session. Barkley,
in a radio address outlining the
special session work, promised
that full consideration would be
given the measure, and predicted
its passage. However. it will not
come without a fight.
