Slash Expected
tBy Associated Pressr

Lansing. Sept. l0-AP-The State

a budget OF nearly 100000 a year
for the coming biennium. more
than double the amount the 1899
legislature allowed.

said he would trim the commits
sions request before Incorporating
It in the budget bill he hopes to
have ready for the legislature when
1t convenes In January, but that he
was not prepared 10 say how severe
the cut would be.
The combined requests Of all
state departments. commissions and
institutions. Hartman said. reached
a figure S5s. 900. 900 in excess OF an
ticipated state revenues. The bud
get is being shaped with the thought
that income in the next biennium
will average sl05.000.000 a year, ="
Hartman declared. Right now the
requests stand s5S,000.000 a year
higher than that total, but you can
rest assured that when this office
Is through with 1t. The budget bill
that will be presented 10 the legis-
lature will represent a balanced
budget"
The fund for medical treatment

lowed when the legislature in 1888
placed a ceiling on tho amounts the
commission might spend and limit
ed the appropriation 10 $4,000 a
year. compared with the peak OF
$4,000 900 that thad been spent be-
fore a limit was fixed on expend-
lures.
The commission's annual budget
request totals $l,99l,396 a year,
with sS79,423 of the sum for the
crippled children department and

For Immediate Action;
Differences Remain
fRv Associated Pressl

tBy Associated Press)
Washington. Sept. 10-AP- A
joint Senate-House conference com
mittee whose members already
have noted individually to 2 for
immediate conscription worked to
day to compromise the differences
OF the two branches of Congress on
the Burke Wadsworth compulsory
military training bill.
The big differences were:
1.-The House-approved provision
for a 60-day delay in CONSUMPTION,
pending further trial OF voluntary
enlistments.
2-The House amendment expand
ing the affected age limit from the
Senate approved bracket of 81
through 80 years to 81 through A
years.
Leaders insisted that the personal
views of the conferees, registered
in their previous votes on the meas
ure, would not lessen their efforts
to maintain the position taken by
their respective houses-a tradition
al requirement.
Most unbiased observers believed,
however. that the final compromise
submitted to both houses for ratifi-
cation would provide for registra-
ton Of the broader 21-44 age group,
with conscription to follow imme-
diately for those selected.
The Senate gave what some con-
sidered back handed approval OF
such a compromise Monday by vot-
ing down two motions by Senator
Clark (D-MoD.
Reject Delay

ate conferees to accept the House
amendment for a 6O-day delay in
conscription. The chamber rejected

Worried About Fascist
Threat to Democracy
Dr.. Grebonier Says
By the Associated Press.

B, the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Dec. 3.-An assist
ant professor at Brooklyn College
testified yesterday that he and eight
other faculty members joined the
Communist party in 1885 and as
sumed aliases to conceal their
identities.
DR.. Bernard D. N. Grebanier told
joint legislative committee inves-
tigatirg the city's school system that
he took the name of David Arden"
when he joined the party because
there would be no peace if the per-
sons real name were used"
Seven Deny Charges.
His testimony followed an asser-
tion by Paul Windels, chief COM
mittee counsel, that there had been
deliberate use of New York City's
school system to spread subversive
doctrines, as well as efforts by GER
tain faculty members to obstruct
exposure of such activities.
OF the eight, seven vigorously de-
MED any connection with the Com
munist party. or ever having been
members. They assailed Dr. Gre
banier as "hysterical' and making
"preposterous" charges.
Dr.. Grebanier, an English in
structor, named among others David
McKelvey White, Frederick Evan
Murray Young and Harry Slochower
as his associates who joined the
Communists under the respective
aliases of Wood" "Cowal," West
and Flint" He said the first three
taught English and that Mr.. Slo-
chower was in the German depart
ment.
Worried About Fascists.
He added he joined the Commu-
mist party at the persuasion OF Dr.
Howard Selsan, philosophy pro-
fessor at Brooklyn College, in 1885
at time when I was worried about
the Fascist threat to democracy"
He testified that educational and
