HOOVER TRIES TO FILL EMPTY G. 0. PROFFER Actively Interests Self in Replenishing of Till for Campaign Expense. By Srrippa-Hatrarri Xnrtpoprr A I linn re WASHINGTON, Oct. 14—President Hoover actively has interested himself in the problem of raising campaign funds for an almost empty party treasury. The Whit* House has enlisted as a result of appeals from Chicago headquarters and various state organisations which, according to reports. have so little money that they ran not finance speakers' trips to distant points. Many of the cabinet members and government officials now on the stump are understood to be paying their own expenses, but the less wealthy public servants, now

being drafted, can not dig down into their own pocket". Finance" Are Low A recent visitor to the White House was importuned directly by the President, although he understood he had been summoned to the capital to discu.se various welfare problems in which he had been interested. The visitor came from Pennsylvania. and closely is associated with coal-mining Interests in that state. West Virginia and Illinois. Various groups which furnished large contributions in 1928 have declined to give anything this year, partly because their own finances are in a low state, and partly because they are opposed to Hoover's re-election. Democrat Funds Better Three elements which are estimated to have given several million dollars four years ago have not raised MOO.OOO this year. Tbev are automobile manufacturers. the grain trade's leaders in Minneapolis and Kansas City, and the brokers. whose losses have piled up since Hoover entered the White House. Although the Democrats also are pleading poverty, they seem better equipped on the score of funds than the Republicans.

‘RADIO TRUST SUIT MAY NOT COME TO TRIAL Plans Virtually Complete for Ending Patent Pacts, Causing Action. By Bviipp-Ho>rnrii Xftrxpnper Allinm-r WASHINGTON, Oct. 14—Although the government s anti-trust suit against Radio Corporation of America and other companies again is set for trial Nov. 15, arrangements may be made this month for terminating is by a consent decree. Plans virtually are complete, it was learned today, tn end the patent agreements which caused the government to charge combination in restraint of trade so far as they affect General Motors Radio Corpora - tion. United Fruit Company and American Telephone and Telegraph Company. This leaves as defendants only General Electric and its subsidiary R. C. A., and Westinghouse Electric

with it* subsidiaries. Attempt* are being made now to work out anew agreement between them, which the government will approve. Since the suit was filed in 1930. General Motors Radio Corporation has been dissolved, and General Motors Corporation has resumed control over it* own patents, once held in the radio group. General Electric has regained patent rights once held by United Fruit. Although the terms of the settlement with the telephone company have not been made public, it is i understood is has entered into a new contract with Radio Corporation of America for non-exclusive rather than exclusive patent licensing upon terms which are satisfactory- to the government. If this is the case it will be eliminated from the suit. If a similar arrangement finallv is made between Westinghouse and General Electric, the purposes of the government's suit to a large extent will have been accomplished. Non-exclusive contract* would open the way for use of valuable radio patent* by the owner, and by as many licensee* as wish to purchase the right to use them. If a consent decree is demanded by the department of justice, an attempt may be made otherwise to safeguard the right to purchase licenses upon reasonable terms, and

violation of the decree would leave the way open for quick retaliatory action by the department. The radio suit was begun in May. 1930, when the government filed charges in the Delaware federal
