: : THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE. SATURDAY, AUGUST 6, 1932 aaa vanr BONUS ARMY CHIEFS SEEK 10 EVACUATE: PENNSYLVANIA CAMP Attempt to Charter Train so Veterans Can Go Home ‘On Cushions’ Johnstown, Pa. August 6.—(P)— Thwarted in earlier efforts to clear Camp McCloskey of the last rem-} nants of the tattered Bonus Expedi- | tionary force, leaders sought Satur-/| day to charter a train to complete! their task. Eddie Atwell, representative of Commander W. W. Waters, and Ma- yor Eddie McCloskey carried on sep- arate negotiations with the Pennsyl- vania railroad while announcement! was made that funds from the B. E.| F. treasury here and at Washington would be used to defray transporta- tion. Atwell said the railroad requested information on the number of men to be moved and that indications ‘were given that all would be taken out of Johnstown by noon. ‘A check showed about 400 Pennsyl- vanians, 300 New Yorkers, 50 each from Massachusetts and Connecticut and a scattering from other states.

Most of them wandered about the city Friday night and joined thou-| sands who watched an American Le- | gion parade. 1 McCloskey battled vigorousiy with | railroad officials for a train Friday | night, but failed. Offers to take the} men in box cars were rejected. “These men were promised they would ride on the cushions and we're | going to see that they do,” he andj Atwell snapped. | The mayor threatened to march the men onto railroad property. The camp was quiet throughout the! night, those remaining being fed) from a barrel of food sent in. | Automobiles and trucks carried hundreds on their way Friday and) Friday night after McCloskey had arranged gasoline supplies. | Britain Sees America On Way to Recovery London, Aug. 6—(?\—The Econom- ist, one of Great Britain's foremost economic and financial suthorities, said Saturday it believed the crisis of the economic stress in the United| States was past. | “It would be rash to predict that) America is yet within sight of general! economic recovery,” it said. in a re-| view of world conditions. “Neverthe- less, there is reason to think that the giant of the west has passed the crisis of his sickness. “In the spring and summer there were grave symptoms, such as the| growth of unemployment, the wide-| spread failure of banks, the drain of gold to Europe and the growth of hoarding and the distrustful public. | “These were justifiably regarded with serious apprehension. but the period of panic seems to have passed. The process of hoarding is being checked, the banking position is sal- vaged and the psychology of the peo- ple steadier.” There also are indications, the pa per said, that “in the world general- | ly, the steepest phases of the depres- sion are past.” Official Explains Seed Loan Decision; Grand Forks, N.

Too bad amateurism will bar the winners from accepting fat contracts to exploit their prowess for there are a few boys and girls here now who could crash the Holly- wood gates. ee The Japs, although here in great numbers, more than 200, have done naries.
