U.S. ‘Brakes’

By FRED W.' PERKINS Times Special Writer

WASHINGTON, Oct. 12.—The United States Government, which

has been playing helpless bystander during the international oil dealings of William Rhodes Davis, appeared today to have obtained a means of checking on future activities of the New York broker. State Department officials said that, under new emergency regulations intended to cut down travel

ports had been taken up from passengers arriving at New York from Portugal on Monday's Clipper. Mr. Davis was one of the passengers. If his passport has been “snatched,” Mr. Davis will find it necessary to explain the nature- of his business before he can make another trip to Rome, Berlin or any other point in Europe. State Department officials have followed with some concern the re-

‘WASHINGTON. Oct. 12: @. By—The" “political :pantnership of; Roosevelt, Farley & Co., which was believed #0: be dissolving a few short

| months ago, is’ doing ‘ blsiness as

usual~ today ‘and’ . expects a ‘boom year in 1940. Such differences ‘as existed be tween the Président and the Post‘master ‘General were: substantially disposed of last month after Mr. Farley returned from a European vacation. > Public demonstration that the two friends of 1932 and 1936 are likely to be in partnership next year, too, came yesterday when Mr. Roosevelt ad 5000 or so postmasters in the: south grounds of the . White House. ‘The postoffice employees are here for their annual convention. "The President made his brief speech an occasion for a warm and pointed tribute to Mr. Farley ‘and. he re-

‘| minded the ‘assembly that’ when

“Jim” runs a convention it usually is a success. “Your friend and mine,” ‘was Mr. Roosevelt's description of Mr. Farley.

- NOBLESVILLE, Ind, Oct. 12 (U. P)—D. OC. Stephenson, former grand dragon of the Ku-Klux Klan in Indiana, was- considerably improyed today. He suffered an attack of Gallstones that prevented his appearance in court on the last day of a hearing on his motion for a new trial. : Dr. J. D. Sturdevant said he was improving rapidly and that an operation would not be necessary in the near future unless the former

Klan leader suffers a recurrence of the attack. Stephenson was convicted of the murder of Madge Oberholtzer in 1925 and sentenced to the State prison for life. Judge Cassius M. Gentry will rule in Hamilton Circuit Court Oct. 17 on the new trial plea.
