fall elections BRING WORRIES TO LEGISLATORS Roosevelt Moves to Unravel Tangle, Help Re-Elect Democrats. BY R! Til FINNEY Timr* Special Writer. WASHINGTON, April 18—The November elections hang like a shadow over the Capital. They caused the legislative tangle in which congress and the President are now involved, and they complicate the difficulties of unraveling it. Not only must the Presidnet straighten out the situation in accordance with the principles of his recovery programs. He also must straighten it out in a way that will permit his recalcitrant Democratic congressmen to come back to Washington next year. He can not afford to have his majority weakened, particularly in the house of representatives. Mast of these recalcitrants had no premonition of the political difficulties in which they 'now' find themselves when they embarked on their inflationary petition signing careers. Rule May Be Changed Most of them, if they could do so in absolute secrecy, would probably vote today to make the petition rule more drastic. As it stands, 145 signers may bring a measure out of commtitee and force it to a vote on the floor of the house. Under Republican rule it took a majority of the membership, 218 signers, and a quiet change back to this figure is likely at the next session. Politically, petitions for this and thatt seemed a clever device for election year as long as signers’ names remained secret and petitions got nowhere in particular. Now that signers’ names are being printed, the situation is different. It at once becomes p£ infully necessary to choose between backing good campaign measures which appeal to the home constituencies and standing firmly behind the President, a position which is more expedient this year than in any recent campaign. That is why the “tough guy” in the White House is patiently listening to advocates of silver legislation, farm-debt-floating legislation, and closed-bank-deposits legislation and saying little for a time. Cotton Bill Ready The new s cotton control bill finishes its journey through the legislative mill in time for the spring planting. When the President signs the hill the agricultural adjustment eriministration will start administer- j ing a crop production plan it did i not originate and did not advocate. | Almost simultaneously, it probably j will find that a much less drastic crop production plan of its own | devising has been rejected by the j industry for which it was proposed, j Southern cotton farmers asked for the new control plan in a poll | conducted by AAA. Dairymen ap- | parently have rejected a milk control plan laid before them at a series of conferences during the past month. Final returns will be received this week when AAA men who conducted the conferences report here. AAA. which studied more than a hundred different plans for aid- ! ing dairymen before proposing the j one under discussion, probably will ! dip into its bag of tricks and pull ! out another if it finds sentiment I overwhelmingly against its first ' choice. The administration feels j strongly that something must be j done about milk. Dairy Problems Studied Dairymen produced 390 quarts of milk a year for each person in the United States in 1929 and 406 quarts a year in 1932. At the same time, the income of dairy farmers dropped from 51.847.000,000 in 1929 to $985.000.000 in 1932. And while this was taking place, milk distributors made profits, in some cases, of 30 per cent, according to Agriculture Secretary Henry A. Wallace. The AAA program advanced today on two other fronts. The recent break in grain markets

April 18.—Henry Castner, owner of a melon farm i near here, has received sl, a “conscience payment” for some melons j stolen five years ago. The money, a $1 bill, was in an envelope containing a note W'hich w'as | placed on the door of Mr. Castner's home. The note bore a name with ! which Mr. Castner is not familiar. He can not recall any melon thefts. “Enclosed find one dollar for a few melons stolen about five years j ago,” the note reads. “Please forgive me.

tt tt tt Sheriff's Mother Buried IS if Time* Special LEBANON. April 18. Funeral services were held yesterday for Mrs. Laura E. Small, 78, widow of James M. Small, and mother of Wilbur A. Small, Boone county sheriff. tt a tt Gallows Builder Dies By Times Special KOKOMO, April 18.—Funeral services were held today for Joshua Brown, 83, who lived in Kokomo since boyhood. He was among the first of Kokccio's volunteer firemen, having served in 1876. Mr. Brown built the gallows on which Michael Gillooley was condemned to die for the murder of Thomas Landon, a policeman. The gallows, however, was not used, as the death sentence was commuted to life imprisonment. tt a a Left Valuable Estate Bit / /mi * Special TIPTON, April 18.—One of the largest personal estates handled in the Tipton circuit court is that of aroused new interest in the commodity exchange bill, designed to prevent such fluctuations, which is pending before the house agriculture committee. The senate may pass the administration's sugar control bill before night and send it to the President. The bill fixes quotas for cane and beet sugar growers and provides for limitations on imports. Processing taxes, levied for the benefit of producers, probably will increase the price of sugar slightly when the bill becomes law.
