SENATE REBELS RENEW PLEDGE TO AIDVETERAN Insurgents Have Votes to Override Opposition, Says McCarran. B J/ United Prrtn WASHINGTON, March 2 —Senate insurgents, still defiant despite administration moves to sidetrack measures cutting into the government's economy program, pledged themselves today to a determined fight on the issue of increased veterans’ benefits. Senator Pat McCarran, persuasive Nevada Democrat, said he had enough votes lined up to block any effort to put through an independent offices appropriation bill unless it carried legislation liberalizing restrictions on veterans’ compensaton. The independent offices bill, loaded heavily with veterans' amendments by the senate, was back in the house appropriations committee today pending decision by administration leaders on a course of action with which they might hope to nullify the efforts of the veterans’ bloc. With enough votes to swing the committee’s action, Senator McCarran is confident that the administration can not kill the increased veterans’ benefits except by a Presidential veto. D. S. DIPLOMATS IN EUROPE BACK FUNDS Commerce Department Officers Borrow to ray Bills. B’j United Brest* PARIS, March 2.—A quick business deal rescued United States department of commerce employes in fifteen European countries today from the financial embarrassment caused by Washington's decision to withhold payment of their February salaries until congress decides on a measure providing compensation for the depreciation of the dollar. While the European employes of the state department remained without funds, disbursing officers of the commerce department got a loan from American banks. With the proceeds, they advanced enough European currency to commercial attaches and their staffs throughout Europe to pay their March 1 bills and buy food. Meanwhile, embassy and consular employes, unpaid since January, cheerfully pooled their resources to pay living expenses for all.

CHARGE HINES' RELIEF FIGURES ARE MISLEADING Legion Speakers Point to Alleged Contradictions at Meeting Here. Charges that Brigadier-General Frank T. Hines, administrator of the United States Veterans’ Association, has given #ut conflicting estimates of the cost of veteran relief, were made last night by V. M. Armstrong , state commander of the American Legion. Armstrong spoke at a meeting of the Twelfth district in the Indiana War Memorial building. He intimated that unless more accurate statements are made, he will ask the Indiana legion at the state convention in Gary this summer to ask the resignation of Gen. Hines as administrator. Mr. Armstrong charged that General Hines has made estimates which have varied with the political administrations. He and other speakers cited figures to show that General Hines had given information to congress during this week that cost of veterans’ relief for 1932 was $860,000,000, and that these figures included many extraneous items. The actual figures which congress desired were but $313,000,000, the speakers declared. AUTO STRIKES TROLLEY Injured Driver Is Charged With Drunkenness.

NRA AGENCIES ASK POWER TO BACOECREES Enforcement Hamstrung by Lack of Authority, Hoke Is Told. More authority for state com- | pliance boards was urged at a meeting yesterday in the Chamber of Commerce building when members of the combined state and district recovery boards met with the new state compliance board in the office of Fred Hoke, head of the national recovery council for Indiana. Francis Wells, Indiana recovery director, said after the meeting that it was the consensus of the fourteen state NRA men who attended the meeting that the state agencies were too restricted as far as power was concerned. The chief complaint, according to Mr, Wells, is that the state authorities have no power to enforce decisions. Mr. Wells said that priding the arrival of an NRA official from Washington action against several Indianapolis concerns charged with alleged consistent abuses of NRA will be withheld. He revealed that the government intends to move against these firms next week.
