ANOTHER BILLION DOLLARS FROM AMERICAN INVESTORS SOUGHT BY GOVERNMENT Borrowing* Will Carry on Recovery Program; U. S. Expenditures Exceed Rapid Increase in Revenues. BY RICHARD L. GRIDLEY I mtrd Pres* Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Feb. 12.—Another billion dollars will be sought from American investors this week by the federal government to carry on its recovery program despite a rising torrent of new revenues into the treasury and the immense profit realized last week through revaluation of the dollar.

Government revenues are rising rapidly because of increased business activity and liquor taxes, but expenditures are increasing at an even faster rate, necessitating the second liorrowing step this week in the government’s ? 10,000,000,000 b orro wing program. Under President Roosevelt’s program the federal government is spending in the first six months of this year $6,000,000,000 more than it is collecting in the form of taxes and other income. In addition, $4,000.000.000 of maturing securities fall due in this period, and must be refunded, making a total of $10,000,000.000 to be borrowed. The first step in the $10,000,000,000 borrowing program was taken several weeks ago when a billion dollars worth of short term government securities was oversubscribed nearly five times in a few hours. This borrowing, together with writing up on the treasury’s bonds of the government's gold by $2,806,666.262 has boasted the treasury’s cash balance to record high levels of $4.331,166 343. Approximately $2,000,000,000 of this amount, however, is to be set aside for the operations of the government's stabilization fund. The balance of the gold profit is to remain intact. This will leave only slightly more than a billion dollar balance, a small sum in view of the current government expenditures of nearly a billion dollars a month. Details of this week’s new government security offering are expected to be announced within a few days. Government bond brokers are expecting a two-year issue, bearing an interest coupon of 2'4 to 3 per cent annually. The government s last big security offerings were half a billion of 13'.>-month 2'- per cent notes and a similar amount of 7'--month I*2 per cent certificates.

SENATE MAY BE QUESTIONED ON SHEARER PROBE Demand May Come With Nye Resolution to Check Munitions Trust. BY MARSHALL M’NEIL Times Staff Writer WASHINGTON, Feb. 12—Demand for an explanation of why a senate subcommittee never reported on its inquiry into alleged lobbying activities of W. B. Shearer at the Geneva disarmament conference of 1927 may accompany first hearings on the resolution of Senator Gerald P. Nye (Rep., N. D.) to investigate the "munitions trust,” he said today. His resolution, broad enough to permit a committee to delve into all details of munitions manufacture and profits and alleged propaganda by these interests, has been referred to the senate foreign relations committee. But the chairman of this group. Senator Key Pittman <Dem.. Nev.i, is doubtful whether his committee or some other has jurisdiction. Senator Nye says he w'ill ask Senator Pitman to permit a hearing on the resolution itself before the committee decides upon its disposition. The Shearer matter may come up at this time. Shearer Seen in Capitol The Nye resolution comes before the foreign relations committee just as the senate is endeavoring to determine whether it will make the "big navy” bill its unfinished business. This bill, as reported from the naval affairs committee, provides for a curb on the profits of shipbuilding and aircraft companies and permits the government to examine the books of all steel, aircraft and shipbuilding concerns with which it has contracts. Senator Nye said that he had recently seen Mr. Shearer about the •capitol. but did not know what business he was on. After the breakup of the Geneva disarmament conference the senate appointed a subcommittee to investigate charges of ‘‘big navy” lobbying at that meeting. Mr. Shearer, who was said to have been employed by three shipbuilding companies, was brought into the inquiry. He gained then the nickname of “the big bass drum.” By some of the witnesses his activities were held responsible for the failure of the conference. Report Allegedly Suppressed' Senator “Sad Sam” Shortridge, the "tall Eucalyptus from California." who was chairman of the investigating committee, was quoted in 1930 as saying the “Shearer incident is a closed book.” . In the spring of J 932 Mr. Shearer was quoted as saying that the report everybody expected from Senator Shortridge had been suppressed because it would involve Andrew Mellow, then President Hoover’s ambassador to Great Britain, and Henry M. Robinson, a personal personal friend of Mr. Hoover's. If Senator Nye wins the right to investigate the ‘‘munitions trust” he hopes the senate will go first into the operations of steel companies and the armament manufacturers; then the aircraft building companies and the armament manufacturers; then the aircraft building companies, and the shipbuilding concerns. Attorney-General Consulted Preparing for the inquiry, he has written Attorney-General Homer S. Cummins, he said, inquiring if it is true that the Du Pont interests have bought heavily into the Bethlehem Steel Company and if so. whether the anti-trust laws would affect such a deal. In addition to investigating all phases of munitions manufacture and sales of arms to foreign nations. Senator Nye wants the committee. if appointed, to determine the adequacy or inadequacy of treaties to which the United States is a party governing international traffic in arms.

Peking No Picnic Portuguese Envoy Attended 64 Dinners in Two Months in Former Chinese Capital. BY GEORGE ABELL Times Special Writer

WASHINGTON, Feb. 12—Minister De Bianchi, the new Portuguese envoy, is causing quite a stir in sartorial circles here with his new double-pleated British trousers, with stripes as broad as those on the American flag. Only they’re black and gray, instead of red and white. The tall, dapper Portuguese confided over a glass of Burgundy that he's already in love whth Washington. He finds this city a lot like Peking, China, where he was stationed.

"The chief difference,” he explained, “is the number of dinner parties. Os course, one goes to many dinner parties here, but it can’t compare to China. “In Peking, for instance, I used to go to sixty-four dinners in two months.” “In two months you w r ent to sixty-four dinners? But that’s not possible.” “Oh, yes, it is,” replied mathematical Bianchi. “You see, the European colony gives a dinner every night. That gives you sixty dinners. Then, the Chinese gives fojir dinners a month. One goes to the Chinese dinners early and then goes on later to the European dinners later. Quite simple!” And Monsieur de Bianchi held his glass of Burgundy to the light and scrutinized the color like a magician to whom sixty-four dinners is just a question of two times two.. 0 0 0 DR. RAMON RUIZ, head of the Consolidated Infor mat ion Service, which supplies articles to 300 Central and South American newspapers, entertained at a large diplomatic luncheon at the Hotel Shoreham. Dr. Juan Chevalier, secretary of *he Panama Legation, discussed Manchurian affairs with George Bronson Rea, counselor of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Manchoukuo twhich the United States government does not recognize). Rea presented diplomats with his card, which is eng-aved in both Chinese and European characters. “The Chinese read the English, and some of the English read the Chinese,” explained Mr. Rea, after lengthy dissertation on Far Eastern affairs. The Manchoukuo counselor knows the Far East rather well, having lived there for thirty years.

He was a correspondent for the New York Herald and the old World and accepted a job with the new Manchoukuo government several years ago. They wanted to send him here as an official government adviser, but wily Rea refused. He realized the difference between an official adviser and an unofficial counselor—and has reaped the advantage. a a a Minister enrique finot of Bolivia and his counselor, Lozada. were among the guests. Envoy Finot is in mourning for his mother and only attends informal parties. Lozada appeared wearing one of the smartly cut suits which a Scottish tailor sends by special steamer from Glasgow. Plump Pedro Rivero, Venezuela’s poet-diplomat, recited his new poem to New York City. “I am in love with New York,” chanted Pedro. (Diplomats remarked with astonishment that affable Pedro omitted to mention in his poem the name of President-Dictator Gomez of Venezuela, who frequently exiles people for just such omissions.) After several cocktails, Poet Pedro, inspired, sat at a desk, dashed off a rhanpsodic verse to Sylvia, li-year-old daughter of his host. Note—Dr. Ruiz announced that he leaves this evening for Miami, thence to go by plane for a trip through nearly all the Latin American republics. an a THE diamond wings of a huge scarf pin sparkled as brightly as the conversation when Dr. Jose J. Lewis, physician extraordinary to Latin diplomats, sat down at a table. Lewis, a brilliant writer on social legislation, plans to leave shortly on a trip to Panama—his native country.

mara, one as a priest of Rome, and the third as a saintly martyr ■who died in Africa. The Roman festival of Lupercalia, when the fertility of both flocks and folk was feted, is credited with aiding in putting the day in a crib. The Roman feast was on Feb. 15. Lupercalia’s custom consisted of ‘“dunking” the names of all marriageable women in a box and then letting the males see what heart-thinker they’d draw. Pepy’s Diary of the reign of Charles II tells of this draw, but gives a leap-year tingle to it by placing the names of males in the box as well as that of the women. Gift exchanges were common during the early days of February’s most celebrated date.

ICY STREETS PERILDRIVERS No Severe Cold in Sight, Says Weather Man; Scatter Sand. Motorists early today w’ere forced to drive cautiously, as snow and ice on the streets made motoring hazardous. Snow and rain totaling 1.4 inches fell yesterday and froze quickly, making pavements slippery and causing numerous minor automobile collisions as auto wheels slid into intersections. More than fifty employes of the city street department were engaged today with shovels and a spreading machine, scattering sand and salt on downtown streets and at intersections in the residential district, to make motoring less hazardous. The snow and ice began metling today when the sun broke through the clouds. Tomorrow was expected to be fair, with somewhat colder temperatures, but with no severe cold weather in sight. Temperature tonight probably will remain near the freezing point, it was said. INDIANAPOLIS WAGON WHEAT City grain elevators are paying 82 cents for No. 2 soft red wheat.
