DEMOCRATS HOOVER PROBLEN fPresident Finds Appoint- ment of Two Men Anything But Easy Task. By the Associated Press. President Hoover is finding the selec- |unn of two Democrats as members of |the Interstate Commerce Commission | anything but an easy task. While the consensus of those close to the White House is that Joseph B. Eastman of Boston will be reappointed, | strong_opposing influences are at work, ! these including some leaders of the Re- | publican party, as well as railroad in- | terests. | The Chief Executive is fully aware that should he remove Mr. Eastman from the commission his appointee would face formidable opposition in the | Senate, especially from the Republican independents of the Northwest, who ]mm the balance of power in the body | which has the final say on the nomina- tion. i Basis for Opposition. | One basis for the opposition to the ! Boston Democrat is that he favors Government_operation of the carriers and frequently disagrees with his col= leagues on matters of major policy. However, close friends of the President say he holds strongly to the opinion that dissenters perform an extremely | useful function in Federal affairs. | It seems to be fairly well established | that Richard V. Taylor of Mobile, Ala,, will not be reappointed to the commis- Ision and there is a real race among | Southern Democrats for this place. Every Southern State except Louisiana has at least one candidate and some | have several. Some administration officers look upon A. J. Maxwell, internal revenue commissioner of North Carolina, as the most likely choice, although they insist that Mr. Hoover has not definitely made up his mind. Mr. Maxwzll, who formerly was a member of the North Carolina State Corporation Commis- sion, has many indorsements, including that of Senator Simmons, whose in- fluence was regarded as a potent factor in the Hoover victory in that State in | 1928, Virginia Candidate. | virginia is proposing Judg> James P. | Woods of Roanoke, who has the in- dorsement of Senators Glass and Swan- son and all of the Democrats in the House delegation as well as of many of the leading citizens of the State. He | formerly was a_member of the House | from the sixth Virginia district. Judge Robert M. Jones of Knoxville ‘s put forward by Tennessee, another of the Southern States that gave its electoral vote to the President. Florida, which likewise supported Mr. Hoover, presents R. Hudson Burr of Tallahas- see, a former member of the Florida Railroad Commission. Besides supporting Mr. Taylor for re- lnppointmcnt. Alabama also presents candidates in Hugh White, chairman of the State Corporation Commission, and C. L. Bunn, secretary and general manager of the Birmingham Chamber of Commerce. Georgia has several candidates; in- cluding Charles E. Cotrell, an Atlanta attorney; James R. Bachman of At- lanta, secretary of the Atlanta Milling Co., and Herbert E. Choate of the |Choate Investment Co. of Atlanta. R. H. McAdams has been put for- ward by South Carolina. [13-MONTH CALENDAR ' PROPOSAL OPPOSED The American Religious Liberty As- | sociation, with national headquarters at | the home ‘of the secretary, H. B. Mayer, 1713 De Sales street, has launched a drive by petitions to Congress, against the 13-month calendar. | " secretary Mayer began circulation |of the petition to Congress here yes- | terday and had obtained a number of names of citizens and taxpayers, he said, to oppose the measure. The petition reads as follows: “We, the undersigned American citizens, and taxpayers urge your hon- orable body not to pass H-J Resolution No. 334 authorizing this Nation to adopt the international fixed calendar of 13 months, recommended by the League of Nations and the Pan-Ameri- can Plenary Conference at Havana. “Because—(1) It would upset the weekly cycle and destroy Sabbath ob- servance: (2) It would displace patri- otic and religious holidays; (3) It would add another month’s expense to the rent paver.” Mr. Mayer said the association will also distribute a_speech by Representa- tive Bloom of New York opposing the measure, made before the House foreign affairs committee, The association, Mayer said, is non- denominational. TRIAL OF SPIRITUALIST AGAIN IS CONTINUED The trial of Mrs. Ida M. Strack, spir- itualist, charged with accepting fees for advice without a license, which opened in Police Court three weeks ago, was again continued yesterday to allow prosccution and defense attorneys to prepare briefs. Mrs. Strack is alleged to have accepted a dollar from each of two policewomen after she had advised them regarding certain events in theit ives. Mrs. Strack maintains, through her attorney, Paul J. Sedgwick, that the money was accepted as a gift and not as a fee and that it was used for church work. It is claimed that Mrs. Strack is an ordained minister of the National Spiritualist Association, which refuses to allow its members to secure licenses, since to do so, it is said, would be to cl; themselves with mediums, clair- | voyants or fortune tellers. They say {that spiritualism is a religion and its ministers should have the same rights as pastors of other denominations. The | case is being prosecuted by Assistant ‘CUrpcmllon Counsel E. W. Thomas. Stop colds Stop that first sniffle! Just put Mistol up your nose with the special Mistol dropper. Clear your head. Relieve inflammation. Use Mistol now and nip your cold in the bud.

COTTON MARKETING AGENCY IS FORMED Groundwork for $30,000,000 Co-op. Is Laid at Memphis Conference. By the Associated Press. MEMPHIS, Tenn., December 12.—The groundwork laid, a delegation of six men today began the task of fashioning the structure of what is planned to be the largest co-operative marketing or- ganization ever attempted—a $30,000,- 000 central agency to finance the han- dling of cotton in 15 Southern and Western States. Decision to create the centralized or- ganization was reached late yesterday of the Federal Farm Board and direc- tors of co-operative growers' associ- ations in the cotton belt States of the South and West. A general committee of 21 will serve as the directorate of the agency, which must be in operation and its first gen- eral meeting held prior to July 1. With support of the Farm Board, the organization contemplates a loan fund for its stockholding members or their subsidiaries to finance the movement of crops to market or “any proper activity necessary to the free delivery, handling or marketing of cotton or cotton seed or their by-products.” As approved by the conference, the agency will come into existence through the transforming of the American Cot- ton Growers' Exchange, now operating as a mutual organization, into an in- corporated company of a non-profit, co- operative character under a charter to conform to the Capper-Volstead act of 1922, and with an authorized capital of $30,000,000. Subscription to the capital stock will be open to State, regional or district co-operative marketing associ- ations. at a conference here between members | COOLIDGE GIVEN RED CROSS POST Elected Vice President " at Annua!
