POUNDS AT HOOVER Joe Robinson Ridicules President's Stand, By United Press WASHINGTON, May 25.—Senator Joe Robinson (Dem., Ark.), who last week scoffed at “attempts to humanize President Hoover,” has returned to the attack with a criticism of Mr. Hoover’s “instability of design and vacillation of purpose.” The occasion for this flanking movement on the part of the senate minority leader was the President's refusal to consider calling an extraordinary session of congress. In a statement Sunday, Robinson agreed there was no great demand for a such session, but accused the executive of inconsistency in his remark that “we can not legislate ourselves out of a world economic depression.” “The point,” he said, “is the curious incongruity of Mr. Hoover’s announcing now. that governmental action can not aid in curing our industrial ills, whereas his whole campaign in 1928 was that the election of a Republican administration vitally was required in order to insure prosperity.” Home Circle to Play Cards Capitol City circle, No. 176, Protected Home Circle, will hold a benefit dance, bunco and eucher party in Woodman’s hall, 322 East New York street, Friday night at 8. Mechanics Plan Card Party Junior Order United American Mechanics, council No. 2, will give a public card party Tuesday at 9 p. m. at 129 South Delaware street.

By Times Special PERU, Ind., May 25.—State convention of the Fraternal Order of Eagles will be held here June 10 and 11, with the expectation that most of the sbjty-five aeries in Indiana will have delegates present.

Hering of South Bend, former national president of the order, and Boyd Gurley of The Indianapolis Times. Hering is managing editor of the Fagles’ magazine. According to Otto P.

Another social movement, the Eagles’ appeal for a federal commission to stabilize employment, will receive much consideration during the convention, according to Deluse, who is a member of th order’s national commission on the subject. This movement was started in Indiana by Hering at the Eagles’ 1930 state convention held in Anderson. Arrangements for the meeting are being made by Peru aerie, of which Charles Ertsl is president and Louis Miller is secretary.
