CHAVEZ OBJECTS TO NAVAJO’S TREATMENT
By United Press WASHINGTON, April 30.—Senator, Chavez (D. N. M.) today asked Secretary of Interior Harold L. Ickes why the Interior Department “ignores the destruction of the rights and liberties of the Navajo Indian” by departmental officials. “I have repeatedly called aitention of the Commissioner of Indian Affairs to the oppressive and tyrannical actions¢of his bureau agents on the Navajo Reservation,” Chavez wrote Ickes. “Are you aware that a bureau conceived and sponsored under the Constitution is being crammed down the throats of the Navajos under the guise of giving them seif government?”

Reserve Funds Over Estimate
Of U.S. Board
By United Press WASHINGTON, April 30.—The Federal Reserve Board's final increase in reserve requirements of member banks becomes effective tomorrow and will leave the banks with $880,000,000 in excess reserves, $380,000,000 more than had been anticipated, it was indicated today. Excess reserves are characterized by bank experts as stagnated funds for which no productive use can be found, but which could provide the basis for undue credit expansion. Fearing a potential credit boom —because each dollar of idle money had a potential credit value of $8 to $10—the Federal Reserve Board last August initiated a program under which excess reserves would be reduced. This was undertaken by increasing the amount of funds member banks must put up as their legal reserves. The Board's statement showed excess reserves of $1,640,000,000 on April 28. The final step of the program provides an increase of 16% per cent in the existing reserve requirements.

FLOOD CONTROL BLOC ROILED BY SECRET REPORT
House Group Claims Army Recommendations Are Bottled Up.
» By NED BROOKS Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, April 30.—Floodcontrol champions in the House are chafing over their inability to get possession of a report containing Army Engineers’ recommendations for an expanded program of meeting the flood problem in the Mississippi and Ohio Valleys. None too pleased over President Roosevelt’s economy message, the flood control bloc is piqued also because the engineers’ report, completed more than a month ago and intended for use by Congress, has been bottled up in the National Resources Committee, the President’s planning agency. The report was requested Feb. 10 by the House Flood Control Com-
mittee, which sought to determine
whether existing plans were ade=quate in the light of the engineers’ experience in dealing with the January floods. Gen. Edward M. Markham, chief of engineers, agreed to prepare recommendations and committee members assumed the findings would be sent directly to them.
Sent to White House
Instead, however, the War Department sent the recommendations to the White House, where they were examined and then turned over to the Resources Committee. Chairman William M. Whittington (D. Miss.) and other members of the House committee have tried vainly to get the report released.
The recommendations, according
to reports, call for an expenditure of $1,185,000,000 over a long period to enlarge existing and proposed systems of dams and reservoirs and to launch a major program of levee construction on the Ohio. The report covers tributaries as well as the
two main streams. Suppression of the report and the President’s references to flood control in his economy message have
created a suspicion among committee members that the Administration is opposed to any new floodcontrol legislation this session and will rest on the Copeland Act of

CUMMINGS 67 TODAY By United Press WASHINGTON, April 30.—Attorney General Homer S. Cummings, a staunch defender of President Roosevelt’s court reorganization plan which provides for retirement of Supreme Court justices at the age of 2 celebrated his 67th birthday toay.
1936, which authorized work estimated to cost $300,000,000 but for which no appropriations have been voted. Chairman Whittington and other committee members are proposing modification of the 1936 act to provide for larger Federal contributions. Requirements on local communities, they. say, makes the system unworkable. Mr. Roosevelt in his message conceded the need for flood prevention hut said the majority of proposals pending in Congress would impose “an unjustifiable burden” on the Treasury.
