Taber Offers
10 Kill
Plan
Congressional
Sentiment Likely
To Doom Resolution
BACKGROUND

one OF the principal etOrtS OF
the administration in the past
tWo years has been to reorganize
the Government along lines that
Donld bring under a centralized
control the scattered independent
agencies. Defeated in the famous
fight in the last Congress, this
proposal 1Dns approved in modified
form at the present session. and
President Roosevelt has begun to
promulgate the orders to make
it effective.
With congressional sentiment gen.
orally favorable to President .Roose-
velt's government reorganization
program, move to block it was
made this afternoon when Repre-
sentative Taber. Republican. of New
York introduced resolution of dis
approval.
Under the law, both houses have
to approve the resolution within so
days to halt the reorganization pro-
posal, and there was no indication
that the opposition would even near
ly approach the strength necessary
to accomplish this
The Taber resolution was a short
paragraph. merely stating that Con-
gress disapproves plan No. /. sub
mitted yesterday as the forerunner
Of two more which the Chief Execu-
tive later told his press conference
would be forthcoming shortly.
More Proposals Due.
Without going into detail. the
President said one of the orders
still to come would deal with
interdepartmental transfers and
mergers and the other with changes
within departments. The other. he
added. will provide for merger of the
law-enforcement activities of the
Treasury Departmental step that
has been contemplated for several
years and at one time was in bill
form before Congress.
The interdepartmental transfers
and mergers presumably will be de-
signed to unity similar functions In
different agencies. as the reorgani-
zation bill which the President
started yesterday to translate into
action preserves all functions of the
Government while permitting aboli-
ton of units.
Cut In Independent Units Due.
The remainder of the program
also undoubtedly will see a decided
reduction in the number of inde-
pendent establishments, with their
subordination to the executive de-
partments and the three new agen-
cies created in yesterdays program
The reorganization bill that was
defeated In the last Congress con-
templated in its original form the
end of the independent agencies as
such, each having been destined to
come under cabinet control.

dent. announcing the creation of

DALLAS, Dec. 12.-Soon, perhaps,
crooks won't have any privacy and
but few secrets from the law.
The cops have couple of new
gadgets they say hear all and tell
ALTO the COPS.
The devices have few citizens
worried. Burglars detest being dis
turbed at work.
Both inventions have sort of put
suburban Highland Park police and
robbers on an old-fashioned tele-
phone party line with the crooks
doing most of the talking.
Highland Park police claim the
devices are good for detecting crimes
being committed behind closed
doors and thick walls.
All detectives need do with one of
the machines is press it against a
wall and listen. 1t picks up all
noises inside like a physicians
stethoscope.
The other is miniature radio
broadcasting set worn by undercover
agents who drop in on poker games
or horse-race bookmakers.
A microphone concealed in the
agents lapel radios all conversations
to officers listening to an automobile
receiving set.

While war conditions abroad
have adversely affected foreign trav-
el advertising, interrupted the pro-
motion of imported wines and
liquors and reduced the volume of
export sales literature in prepara-
ton, these losses" said Mr.. Heit-
kamp, have been more than COM
pensated by increased business ac-
tivity in the domestic field"

Tax Funds Substituting
Labor for Big Farms,
DR.. Alexander Says
Mechunizution Of
Agriculture Blamed
For Situation
d the Associated Press.

DR.. w. w. Alexander, farm
security administrator, declared to-
day that under the present agricul-
tural system the taxpayers money
was being used to subsidtze labor
for many big commercial farms.
In his annual report on rural relief
activities, he said, '"The large
mechanical farm usually supports
its workers only during the few
weeks Of their employment, and they
must depend largely on relief be-
tween times"
Responsibility for the situation
was laid by DR.. Alexander on
mechanization of agriculture.
He said thousands of the families
displaced from the land since 1890
had been aided by his agency and
by local relief organizations. 1nso-
FAR as such aid was extended. he
added, the taxpayer is subsidizi
a labor supply for many of the big
commercial farms
He estimated there were between
100000 and 350,00O migrant farm
families existing in Extremely bad
living conditions" with little or no
provisions for shelter, health protec-
tion or schooling.
The F. S. A. has been assisting
such families by means of outright
relief grants and rehabilitation
loans. The administrator reported
that on July l loans outstanding
totaled s28O,837 900. Grants during
the last fiscal year totaled $22, ,758 900,
DR.. Alexander said the rural relief
problem called for two solutions
new and more stable employment
for the surplus workers, perhaps in
subsistence farming; and decent
shelter, steadier employment and a
chance to educate their children, for
those who must continue to be
seasonal workers."
