 pOrters Tonight

State Senator George T. Culhane today declared him. self for Robert A.

The as- sociation has been formed to aid Senator Culhane in his bid for Dem- ocratic renomination for the senate in the 18th district.
 I'm for Bob Hurley" said Sena- tor Culhane, land so that there will be no doubt about it I'm positively for Bob Hurley. He is an able candidate, and will make an excel lent and aggressive campaigner and governor. I believe that most local Democrats favor the nomination of MT. Hurley, as do most Democrats all over the state" ..
 Senator Culhane Is the second leading Democrat to buck Mayor Vincent A. Scully and ex-State Chairman J. Francis Smith in their endorsement of ex-Governor Will bur L. Cross.

State May Lose One Of Its Six Representative Seats
TRIMBLE GOING
 TO MUSIC MEET
Last Morning Class Of Learning To Listen
 Planned Tomorrow

The morning Learning to Listen class at Bronson Library will be held tomorrow at 9:3O.
 The opening number on the pro- gram will be Symphonic Synthesis from the opera Boris Godounow ar- ranged by Leopold Stokowski and played by the Philadelphia Sym- phony Orchestra. This work gives perhaps the most remarkable re- production of bell effects ever achieved. Tom toms, glockenSpiel, tubular chimes, muted trumpets and plucked strings are used in corn- binations which produce tones never before heard from any orchestra.
 The class will discuss the prin- ciple of design and form in music.
 They will take up a study of the works of Wolfgang Amadeus Moz- art and will hear his Symphony No. 40 in G minor played by Sir Thomas Beecham and the London Philharmonic Orchestra.
 This will be the last morning class of the summer, as Walden Trimble is attending a state musical conference at New Britain State Teachers College during the next two weeks.
 Glasses will be resumed about the middle of September.

Veto Calls Claims
OF Two Aliens False

Asserting that a State Depart
ment inquiry had revealed false
statements by the individuals in
volved, President Roosevelt today
vetoed a bill for the relief of Egon
Karl Freiherr Won Mauchenheim
and Margarete Won Mauchenheim.
Identifying the pair as German
aliens, the President said the legis-
lation would have conferred upon
them the status of legal residents
Of the United States and would
direct the Secretary of Labor to
cancel an outstanding warrant for
their deportation.
His veto message follows, in
part:
"The aliens in question entered
the United States on May 10, 1896,
and were permitted to proceed in
transit to Canada for the purpose of
applying for quota visas. Denied
visas there, they re-entered the
United States. The Department of
Labor, finding that they could not

deportation proceedings, but because
of the fact that they represented
themselves to be political fugitives
from Germany, they were accorded
the privilege Of voluntary departure
IAN investigation conducted by
the State Department has disclosed
that these aliens made false state
ments with respect to acts COM
mitted by them in Germany prior
to their departure therefrom in
1885, which acts resulted in the
Initiation of Federal proceedings
against them for fraud and civil
claims for the recovery of property.
The State Department was unable,
moreover, to discover that these
aliens had been involved in any DO
litical differences. It does not ap-
pear that this information was be-
fore the committees of the House
and Senate when the bill was being
considered by them"

Sd. T.. Bills Ready .
For White House
After Senate Action
Affect PoroIe Law,
Adoption and Porking
By District Employees

Three of the five District bills
passed by the Senate yesterday
afternoon are ready today to go to
the White House for signature, while
the other two await House action.
The measures approved by both
Houses are:
To amend the District parole and
indeterminate sentence law to bring
it more into line with the Federal
law.
A minor change in the law gov
erning adoption of children.
Authorizing District employees to
rent automobile parking space In
the garage in one of the new city
buildings in Municipal Center.
The two measures that must go
to the House are:
Authorizing the Attorney Gen.
eral to appoint five-man commits
sion to recodify the law of the
District.
To grant retirement status to for
mer Policeman Amos B. Cole.
One of the requirements of the
new parole bill is that the courts
could not impose a minimum SEN
tence in excess of one-third of the
maximum actually imposed. The
committee said that as the law now
stands there are instances where
the maximum sentence, when re-
duced by the allowance of time for
good behavior, expires before the
prisoner has served his minimum
sentence.
The bill also changes from one
fifth to one-third the length of
time after which a prisoner Is ELI
gible for parole.
