HOOVER PLANS COMPLETED ON EXTRASESSION | Senator Smoot is Told That Special Congress Meeting Will Be in April. BY THOMAS L. STOKES United Press Staff Correspondent MIAMI BEACH, Fla., Feb. B. President-Elect Hoover has com-j pletcd his plans for the extra ses- j ion of congress he will summon about the middle of April for farm j iciicf and tariff revision. Senator Smoot of Utah, chairman of the finance committee, will .'cave here today to lay before other Republican leaders in Washington the ideas Hoover has cowr**d- **•-. him in the last four days. They have gone over the situa- : ion in detail, both as respects the j ope and the nature of the legis- | ion to be considered. The Utah senator was unable to j vin over the President-elect to an j c rlier session than planned. Smoot urged that it be called j '.mil 1, but Hoover desires the j : ucr date in order that he may onfer f urther with farm leaders n secure general agreement on a farm relief program. Informed for Difficulties Both arc agreed. Hoover, that : a riff revisions should be held to djustment of agricultural rates and some industrial schedules. Smoot Informed the Presidentelect of the difficulties in the way of a limitation in the senate. He brought to Hoover reports that the Democrats may offer even higher rates than the Republicans would accept in order to confuse the situation and prevent action unless a general revision is agreed to at this time. Hoover wants no general revision—and is expected to outline his views in his inauguration address. His argument will be that no industry which is prosperous has a claim for increase of rates, since this demonstrates the present rate are effective, and by the same token, there should be no general reduction of rates. He also will argue any attempt at general revision, with the consequent uncertainty, would disturb business. His method will be an appeal to business and the people over the heads of those in congress, either Democra ts .or Republicans, who wish a revision at this time. Maps Farm Relief In the conferences Hoover will hold with farm leaders after he becomes President. He will seek to work out details of legislation beforehand, so there will be no confusion and delay such as has attended recent efforts to solve this problem. He laid down the general principles in his acceptance during the campaign. Smoot will act as advance agent to outline Hoover’s general ideas about the extra session, so that leaders may know how to map their course, and will not swarm down upon his return to Washington before his inauguration, when other matters will claim his attention. The veteran Utah senator has the distinction of being the only member of congress called here. This lias given rise to the belief in some quarters that he will be one of the chief spokesmen for Hoover in congress in the new administration. He lias been a house of the Presi-dent-elect since Monday. MOTHER AGAINST SON Former Indiana Lieutenant-Gov-ernor Sued in Estate Case. EVANSVILLE. Ind„ Feb. B.—Mrs. \i.

HOUSE IGNORES COLONY CHARGE Bill Aimed at Head for Farm Is Tabled. If children, in the Butlerville Farm Colony for Feeble Minded arc “treated like hogs” as Senator Robert L. Moorhead, of Indianapolis, charged in the state senate last Friday, the house of representatives doesn't blame the condition on the superintendent. This was evident Thursday when the house adopted without a sign of dissent a report of its committee on benevolent and scientific institutions for indefinite postponement of the senate bill which would have removed control of the Butlerville institution from James H. Jackson, brother of ex-Governor Ed Jackson. Organized school teachers won a fight on the teacher tenure bill when the house committee on education returned a report indefinitely postponing the Freeman-Cromer-Murden bill which would limit the application of the law to first, second, third and fourth class cities and would exempt the rural districts from its provisions. The Adams bill providing for verdicts by ten jurors in criminal cases excepting murder, for which eleven jurors may return a verdict was reported indefinitely postponed by Judiciary A committee. Fassage of the Ahlgren-Harris bill which provides that classification of the municipal corporations shall not be changed despite results of the 1930 census was recommended by the committee on cities of the second class.

Are Ifou Readv,— ygl When your Children Ciy for It Baby has little upsets at times. All your care cannot prevent them. But you can be prepared. Then you can do what any experienced nurse would do—what most physicians would tell you to do—give a few drops of plain Castoria. No sooner done than Baby is soothed: relief is just a matter of moments. Yet you have eased your child without use of a single doubtfdl drug: Castoria is vegetable. 60 it's safe to use as often as an infant has any little pain you cannot pat away. And it's always ready for the crueler pangs of colic, or constipation, or diarrhea: effective, too. for older children. Twenty-five million bottles were bought last year. Bpifj up3BBP|
