For Utilities
WASHINGTON, April II. -luP)

WASHINGTON, April 21.-lup}
President Roosevelt, in a re-
versal Of policy which revived the
prospects of an early New Deal
truce with the multi-billion dollar
power industry, unexpectedly in
cluded aid to public utilities in his
$4,512,0O0,000 recovery relief
program as it started through
congress yesterday.
He discussed plans to aid utili.
ties with Chairman Jesse Jones OF
the Reconstruction Finance Cor
poration, Chairman William O..
Douglas Of the Securities and Ex-
change commission, and Sec.
Commissioner John W. Hanes.
They refused to divulge details,
but Jones said the utilities would
be included among the "small
business men" eligible for loans
from the liberalized RFC fund OF
81, 00,000,000. .
Large as we'll as small utilities
will be aided, it was understood.
Jones said he has several appli-
cations for loans from little en-
terprises while Douglas said that
the SEC is examining prospective
security issues by large units OF
the industry. Neither would say
how much money would be adj
vanced to utilities or whether the
objective is to create a market Tor
so-called "junior" securities which
the industry complains has been

The administration sought popu-
lar approval Of its $4,612,o0o, 900
lending spending program today
while congress limited that It may
seek closer control of next years
relief funds.
A senate proposal, seeking to
attach policy restrictions to the
81 $50, 100000 relief fund which
President Roosevelt has request
ed for the first seven months OF
the 1889 fiscal year, was studied
by members of a house appropri-
atoms subcommittee engaged IN
drafting bill to carry out the
vast recovery program.
James Roosevelt, the presidents
son and secretary, and James A.
Farley, Democratic national com.
mittee chairman, defended the
New Deals program last night in
speeches answering Republican
criticism Of the plan to fight tho
depression.
Meanwhile, the administration's
program moved ahead on several
fronts. The president discussed
with Reconstruction Finance cor
poration and Securities and Ex-
change commission officials plans
to aid the utility in 81 900, 000.-
900 expansion and modernization
program.
The United States Housing su-
thority speeded its program with
presidential approval Of six slum
clearance projects totaling more
than 10000, 900. A..

ment In order to continue relief
employment.
THAT the new relief bill
stipulate that federal appropria-
tons are to be used for paying

of this would be to force local

700 BOO GOVERNOR
GRAVES FOR TAKING
SIDES WITH THE clio.

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Apr. Fl.
(UP)-Huntsville residents, 700
strong, yesterday drove to the
capitol and gave Gov. Bibb Graves
a rousing version of the southern
equivalent of the Bronx cheer
when he started talking against
'anti-union one-sided propaganda.
The Huntsville citizens, in a mo-
torcade of 100 automobiles, came
here to petition the governor to
intervene that the Dallas textile
mill there might be reopened. The
mill, normally employing 500, had
been closed for five months, fol
lowing failure of plant officials
and Committee of Industrial Or
ganization's Textile Workers Or
ganizing Committee to reach an
agreement.
Members of the motorcade want
ed Graves to promise armed pro-
lection, if necessary, to reopen the
mill,

Floridians Fight
4O-Mile Front OF
Brush, MuckFme

TT. LAUDERDALE, Fla, April
81. ~(UP) - State fire-tightlng
units were aided by a southeast
breeze last night as they battled
along a 4O-mile front to gain con-
troll of a burning barrier of muck
and brush in three southeast
Florida counties.
The southeast breeze, which
wheathcr burea uofficials expect
ed to continue for several days,
prevented a dense blanket of
smoke from covering cities on the
lower east coast.
Guy Bender; Everglades fire
warden, said small brush fires had
been burning in section of the
Everglades in Dade, Broward and
Palm Beach counties for two
weeks. The Everglades, he said,
was "drier than it has been in l6
years" from six-inch rain def
cheney since January |.
Bender believed the blazes
started from carelessly thrown
lighted cigarets.
