F.D.R. IS SILENT AS THIRD TERM TALK IS PUSHED

lowa Democrat Promises State; Workers Alliance Opposes Garner.

WASHINGTON, June 7 (U. P.).— The third-term movement for President Roosevelt today assumed some earmarks of a full-fledged boom for his re-election in 1940. | Third-term talk echoed from the | floor of Congress to the White House steps and Cabinet circles, | With these developments: 1. Rep. Martin J. Kennedy (D. N. J), in a speech on the House floor, called on Democrats to renominate Mr. Roosevelt and the third-term myth.” 2. A Workers’ Alliance convention adopted a resolution opposing Vice | President John Nance Garner as a Presidential candidate and urging relief workers to “keep the New| Deal in the White House.” 3. Mr. Roosevelt was informed by | | E. H. Birmingham, chairman of the | Jowa State Democratic executive committee, that Towa would support him if he is prevailed upon to seek | a third term. | 4. A mass meeting attended by| labor leaders, Senators, Congress- | men and workingmen hissed the] mention of Mr. Garner's name by | Tom Mooney, the famous California labor prisoner. Mooney charged that Mr. Gamer had been selected | as the “splitter of the Democratic | Party in order to make possible the return of the days of the great | engineer, Herbert Hoover.” The central figure in the Sid term talk, Mr. Roosevelt, rem 1ained | silent. He parried reporters’ guestions at a press conference, and said he was not responsible for remarks like those of Mr. Birmingham and Interior Secretary Harold IL. Ickes who, in a current issue of a weekly magazine said: “I want Roosevelt for a third term.” Mr. Birmingham said he informed the President that Towa was behind him, but when asked whether he thought Mr. Roosevelt would be persuaded to run, replied “vou'll have! to ask him.” He added "if not him, Jim Farley or Henry Wallace.”

Security Law Changes May Benefit Indiana

Times WASHINGTON, June 7.—Poor | states with small old age pensions may get more Federal financial aid than richer states when Congress revises the social security law this session. Southern states, whose average monthly old age pensions now run as low as $6.05 would benefit chiefly. Senator

Indiana, with its per capita income in 1935 of $402 and with the average old age pension in April of this year, $17.01, would benefit under the Bymes I ema

F. D. R. DEFERS TRIP T0 WATCH CONGRESS

WASHINGTON, June 7 (U, P.).— President Roosevelt's postponement of a proposed trip to the West Coast and Alaska was reported today to have been prompted by his fear that Republicans and conservative Democrats would attempt to restrict 1940 relief activities. The President, who had planned to leave for San Francisco June 13, announced at his press conference vesterday that he was postponing the trip pending passage of the | $1,723,000,000 relief appropriation | and extension of excise taxes which | expire June 30. A House Deficiency Appropriations Subcommittee considering the relief bill met in closed session late yesterday. Mr. Roosevelt was said to fear that Congress would seek to restrict the use of relief money in 1940 and lay down fixed allotment schedules.

TRIAL NEARS END

U.S. Prepared to Summon Dozen Midwest Bankers To Stand.

The Government was expected to close its case today against John W. Moore Sr. and John W, Moore Jr., former Continental Credit Corp. officials of Winchester, and Elmer Kerr, Union City banker. Kerr is charged with violating the National Banking Act and the Moores are charged with and abetting his violations.” B. Howard <Caughran, assistant U. S. District attorney, said would call more than a dozen Midwest bankers to the stand and seek to prove that they bought notes from the Continental firm which were really the property of the Commercial Bank & Trust Co. Kerr was president. Directors of the testified that Kerr permitted the Continental firm to overdraw its account in violations of directors’ orders. They also testified more than $34,000 in notes was given by Kerr to the Moores without the directors’ knowledge. The Government alleges that the Moores never paid for these notes. Among those who testified were Thomas A. Billingsley, Greenville, O., and Frank Veit, both of Union City, all Commercial Bank & Trust Co. directors. Robert T. Brady, bank secretarytreasurer, testified that he found a receipt for the $34,000 worth of notes in the bank, that Kerr said he was going to ask the Moores either for the notes or money for them and that Kerr said he was going to inform the bank's directors of the transaction but delayed doing so until it was learned at a meeting sometime later,
