NEW CABINETEERs

The country knows more about
Harry Hopkins than 1t does about
Governor Frank Murphy. The ma
ton apparently does not care much
about Hopkins future. Large indus
tries do question the wisdom of the
appointment.
Governor Murphy has record as
a lawyer and a Judge, and it is very
good. The objection to- him is that
he should have known better than to
nulify the orders of Michigan judges
who issued orders from the bench
to- check the outrageous sitdown
strikes. The fact that he interferfed
with. the courts is urged as a reason
why his appointment as Attorney
General should be rejected by the
Senate.
There may be fight on both OF
The new Cabinet appointees. How
ever, Washington newsmen think
that both men will retain their
places in the Cabinet.

UN-AMERICAN ACTIVITIES

Attempts to snuff out the Dies
Committee have failed Dies took
The Secretary of Labor "for a ride, :"
because Miss Perkins was partisan in
protecting Harry Bridges, the holy
terror of the Pacific coast water
front. Chairmcn Dies and his Com
mittee certainly have the best of the
argument, as Congress opens and
is told of a plan to impeach Secre-
tary Perkins. and to force the Corr
missioner of immigration to put
Bridges on the mat and decide the
mooted question Of whether he
should be deported.
Apparently the attempt to purge
the Dies Committee has failed, with
the result that Congress is likely
to have 1t continue its investiga-
tions.

the suit didn't break, and then to go
for trumps. This would make it
pretty sure that at the worst only
one trick could be lost in each
major.
But no. South won the diamond
lead, led to the club A, returned
small club, East playing his K and
getting it ruffed, and then South
took two more high diamonds, risk
ing ruff unnecessarily. A spade
was led, West false-carding the @
and the A winning, next a spade to
the K and three high hearts, estab-.
fishing East's 8. A spade to Vests
j, however, made the contract
secure. Had East been able to win
this, his heart 8 could have dropped
South's last trump and the club Q
would have been the last trick. But
West, no matter what he led, could
not help giving South a trick on
ruff with his last trump, making the
contract.

South felt strong enough to open
this deal with bid of 2-Hearts,
North responding with 3-Clubs.
Next came 3-Spades from South,
4-Clubs from North, 4-Hearts from
South and 5-Hearts from North, a
slam invitation which South refused
because he felt he had already gone
pretty strong BY opening with a
game-guarantee two bid on a hand

was there, he reasoned, North would
have to bid it, not invite it.

Theft Of S1,070,427
Admitted by Garcia
In Police Lineup
Sugar Importer Says
He Received None
Of Money Personally
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, June Carlos
Garcia, a prominent sugar importer,
acknowledged in the police lineup
today that a charge of grand lar
ceny made against him for the
alleged theft of sl,O7O,427 was par
tally true" but contended he did
not himself receive the money.
He told Acting 1t. James Pyke
that it went to his firm.
Garcia is president of the Garcia
Sugars Corp. of Wall Street and has
interests in Standard Sugars Corp,
the International Trading Co. and
the Insular Terminal Co. of Long
Island City.
Liabilities Exceed $1,000 900.
Garcia Sugers went into receiver
ship last week on application of the
National Sugar Refining Co., Amer
ican Sugar Refining Co. and Lee g.
Simmon, lighterage concern, which
told Federal Court that the Garcia
flrm owed them more than 100000
and that liabilities were more than
ST 600 600 in excess of assets.
District Attorney Thomas E.
Dewey's office subpoenaed Garcia's
books, which Assistant District At
torney Frank A F. Severance said
showed that. beginning in 1887,
Garcia received large loans from the
Chase National Bank and the Clin-
ton Trust Co., securing them with
sugar warehouse receipts.
He quoted Garcia as saying about
80 per cent of these receipts were
faxed. The money was used, he said,
to meet losses suffered through trad
ing in sugar futures and through
reputation of contracts by pur-
chasers in the face of a falling
market.
Paid in Receipts.
When the banks called their loans,
Mr.. Severance said, they were paid
off in the worthless receipts or with
money raised by sale of such re-
ceipts. The transactions continued
until this month, Mr.. Severance
said.
Mr.. Severance said that among
firms suffering losses were Paine,
Weber & Co., Nortz & Co., Neiche-
lag & Co., Curacao Trading Co.,
Little d Christian, and F. I. Dupont
& Co., in addition to the refiners
who brought about the receivership.
Garcia was scheduled for arraign-
ment in Felony Court today on the
grand larceny charge.

Exports of U. S. Cotton
Hit 50-Yeur Low
By the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, June 1.-Exports of
American cotton during April and
the first three weeks of May, re-
ported by the Bureau of Agricul-
tural Economics, were the smallest
in more than so years.
Cotton experts attribute the low
export movement partly to the price
support derived from Government
loans to growers in past seasons.
This, they contend, has tended
to impair the competitive position
of the American fiber in world
markets.
April exports of Egyptian cotton
increased 48 per cent over a year
ago, whereas our shipments declined
So per cent. March exports from
India were % per cent greater than
the same month last year.
