PATRONAGE QUIZ MAY BE PUSHED BY BROOKHART Postoffice Head Reported Ready to Reinstate Ousted G. 0. P. B's Scrippa-Hnu arrl S < irspnt-rr Allinnee WASHINGTON. April 3.—Reports tliat Postmaster-General Brown may reinstate Republican elements in Georgia which were denounced and driven from the fold at the Kansas City convention, may be investigated by Senator Brookhart’s senate patronage committee, it was learned today, and the cabinet member may be summoned as a witness. In view of the President’s assertion that scandalous conditions in the southern G. O. P. had been corrected, which was his comment on the Brookhart committee's recent report. Senator McKollar said today he favored continuation of the inquiry to throw light on the Georgia situation. Brookhart announced he planned to convene the committee to discuss whether Brown and Walter Newton, Hoover’s political secretary, should be called to tell what steps have been taken. Hay? Leading Part ■ Brown and Newton have directed the movement to substitute better elements in the soul hern G. O. P. in the four states of South Carolina, Georgia, Florida and Mississippi mentioned by the President in his rsform statement a year ago. As dispenser o f pas to Mice patronage, Brown has played the largest part bi determining who should be recognized. Nov/ however, the committee has oeen informed that Brown and Newton recently conferred with Ben Davis, ouster Negro national committeeman. and with Davis’ lieutenant, G. S. Flanders. Davis is said to exercise control In Georgia, although he ./as displaced by Josiah T. Rose, a Hoover man, more than a year i#o. Seeks Marshal’s Post The recent conferences with Davis here are said to look toward a compromise under which he would share patronage authority with Rase, and the nomination of Flanders for United States marshal was supposed to be the first step in this direction. In view' of the denunciation and ousting of Davis at Kansas City which was regarded as the beginning of the reform drive, Brookhart and McKellar admit they are interested in getting at the facts. Though there is some doubt whether the committee has any funds at its disposal, it has not yet been discharged, and Brookhart asserts it can resume its work at any moment it cares to.

DEPRESSION TO BE STUDIED BY JAPANESE DIET Government Will Be Made Target at Session for Acute Conditions. BY MILES W. VAUGHN, T'nltrd Press Staff Correspondent TOKIO, April 3.—Japan’s critical financial and economic situation likely will have a considerable effect on the special session of the diet called April 21 by Emperor Hirohito. Business has become increasingly worse since the first of the year. The number of unemployed has increased, and gold reserves of the Bank of Japan are sinking steadily. Leaders of the Seivukai, principal opposition party in parliament, already are planning to attack the gc-/emment as responsible for much of the acute depression. Impartial observers are agreed that the government’s policies, while unquestionably necessary and bound to benefit the empire in the long run, have contributed to the present near-crisis. Gold Embargo Off The primary plank in Premier Yuko Hamaguchi’s cabinet’s platform was removal of the embargo on exports of gold and silver which had prevailed since the World w’ar, and to this end, the premier and his colleagues consistently have urged empire-wide governmental and popular retrenchment. The embargo w r as taken off Jan. 11 after the yen had been forced up to par on the American dollar. Depression set in almost at once. It may be attributed to these factors: The ripe of the yen. necessary before the gold embargo was lifter Japan’s principal export is raw silk, sold in America for dollars. Confronted with the steadily increasing value of the yen, silk importers hastened to dispose of their stocks and made huge shipments to America late in 1929, glutting the New York market and causing a decline in raw silk prices w r hich became acute last month. Gold Reserves Sink Equally, once the gold ban was off, banks found it profitable to carry out their exchange transactions by shipping gold, a fact which caused the Bank of Japan’s reserves to shrink rapidly.

China is on a silver basis and produces much raw silk. With the silver dollar in China the lowest in many years, foreign silk buyers immediately found it highly profitable to purchase China’s raw silk in huge quantities, despite the fact it is inferior in quality to Japan’s raw silk.

Brown, widow of the Colorado mine owner, Leadville Johnny Brown, signed a contractt oday with a group of Arizona and Montana copper miners whereby they will operate in rich, virgin gold fields of the Rocky mountains.

The contract, signed in the presence of the American consul-gen-eral, was with a group directed by Arthur Curtis James. “Geologists claim this field is the greatest remaining gold basin in the United States,” Mrs. Brown said. “My husband staked claims there thirty years ago, but was not able then to extract ore from them. “The field never has been touched and there is no estimate of how much gold there is in it, but certainly I believe it will be greatly in excess of $100,000,000. “The new field does not Include the Ibex and Johnny mines, but they are in the same veins.” STUDENTS BALLOT WET North Carolina U.
