Task Without Parallel. Referring to the former dispute with the Senate over methods of relief wark, Judge Payne declared that “no other organization in the world has had such a task” as the distribution of 40,000,000 bushels of farm loan surplus wheat which Congress intrusted to the Red Cross last month. In less than a month since the President signed the bill, he said, the Red Cross has distributed 15,000,000 bushels, milled into flour for humans and feed for live stock. James L. Pleser, vice chairman in} charge of domestic operations, also stressed the successful handling of wheat by the Red Cross and predictead that if it does this job well “some one may suggest that it beccme the re- ceiver of surplus cotton, coal, meat and iron in an effort to solve the riddle of despair between overproduction on one hand and need for the surplus on the other.” Judge Payne reviewed the drought, flood, tornado and unemployment meas- ures undertaken by the organization and in reference to unemployment de- clared “the leadership of the Red Cross has given a remarkable demonstration of relief in providing for the enormous populations left without adequate pro- | | vision for help from Community Chests in cities of under 25,000.” Rabbi Willlam F. Rosenblum of ‘Temple Israel, New York City, another speaker, warned that the masses would demand a “hunger loan” bigger than any of the victory loans of the World ‘War if Congress did not drop partisan litics and pass honestly designed egislation striking at the fundamental causes of economic unrest. Relief Work Described. Red Cross relief work in drought, ‘Wwheat and flour distribution, unemploy- ment, floods, storms and tornadoes in the past year was dqescribed by Mr. Fieser as vice chairman in charge of domestic operations. A tribute, a5 well as a vote of confi- dence, has been bestowe4 upon the Red Croes, he said, in designating it as the ‘wheat distributing agency of the Nation in the egisting emergency. “If the Red Cross aoes well in this | field,” Mr. Fieser declared, “some one may suggest that it become receiver for the surplus cotton, coal, meat and iron output of the United States in an effort to solve the riddle of despair between overproduction on one hand and need for the surplus on the other which pe- riodically prevents our bread and butter from coming out even. “Then our shingle can read, ‘General Merchandising.” The relief director summarized widespread disast of the of the organization as follows: relief in Montana.

HINDENBURG WINS GERMAN MAJORITY Bruening Will Keep Post as Nation's Head Asks Re- newed Unity. ¥ the 2 od Fress BERLIN, April 11.—Field Marshal Paul von Hindenburg, second President of the German Republic, settled back in his presidential chair today at 84 for another term of 7 years. In yesterday's run-off election he rolled up a plurality of nearly 6.000- 000 votes over Adolf Hitler, Naticnal Socialist candidate, his chief oppon-nt The vote, as announced early today, Was: Von Hindenburg ...19,359.642 Bitler ... 0. voseeseass. 13,417,460 Thaelmann (Communist) 3,706,388 Invalid . 8,204 Total . sssanene 36,401,604 Chancellor Heinrich Bruening, at Von Hindenburg's request, consented to remain in office.

Although he failed to get a majority in the first election March 13, he rolled up a majority of 2,235,794 yesterday over the combined vote of his two op: ponents, One Natlonal Socialist and one Re- publican were Kkilled during fights in Hamburg and Bremen. Another man dropped dead from excitement. Three score persons were injured and hun- dreds arrested. Early this morning Hitler called on his followers to gird for the Prussia Diet elections on April 24 in an effort to march a step farther toward the goal he called “German liberation.” “This Nationalist Socialists know not what rest is,” he said. That the Hitler movement apparently came to & standstill yesterday would seem to be indicated by the fact that, although his increase from 31.1 per cent of the vote on March 13 to 36.6 per cent yesterday was substantial, yet the difference did not equal the vote cast for Lieut. Col. Theodore Duester- berg, Nationalist candidete in the March election, who withdrew from the run-off. A large section of the Nationalists was shown to have failed to swing ta Hitler and President von Hindenburg increased the percentage of his own vote from 49.6 to 55.9 Perhaps no public man in Germany was happier over the result than Chan- cellor Bruening, who sat in solitude ip his study late last night, puffing on his inevitable black cigar, as the returns were delivered.

Not Real Saving. The $7.903.517 is not a real saving through whittling down on expendi- tures, however, s non-:ecurring items on bullaing projects appropriated for Jast vear total $8,134.449. They include: Completion of the Sen i Building (elimination), $3.079.350; con- tinuing construction of the House Of- fice Buliding (decrease), $2,994,500; completion of new conservatory and buildings, United States Botanic Ga den (elimination), $576,398; construc- tion of addition to Library of Congress Building (decrease), $500,000; furnish- ing, new House Office Bufiding (elimi- nation), $400,000; completion of acqui- sition of site, Annex Butiding, Library of Congress (climination), $321.201; re- modeling interior of old House Office Building (elimination), $60,000; clear- ing site, Capitol Grounds extension (elimination), $50,000; clearing _site, Library of Congress Annex Building (elimination), $20,000, and renewal of steps, west front of Capitol Building (elimination), $133,000. The bill reported today carries two important increases, one of which is the $500.000 extra contribution to the Gov- emment Printing Office on account of congressional printing and binding, and the other is $137.000 for the Capitol power plant for steam distribution lines and improvements at the river pumping station, Library Annex Cut. The reduction of $2,293.973 under the budget estimates consists of $2.000,- 000, the initial appropriation for the Library of Congress Annex Bullding; $117.701 in other items under the juris- diction of the architect of the Capitol, $83,722 under the Botanic Garden, $64,- 960 under the Library of Congress and $27,590 under the Senate and House of Representatives, The decrease in appropriations for Senate and House is partially due to the fact that durin gthe coming short session of Congress the pay of pages will amount’ to less than during the present long session Speaker Garner's action in dispensing | with the Speaker’s car saves $4,000, but this is offset by an increase of $4,000 to pay for the distribution of speeches and pamphlets during the campaign year. YAt item of $6,000 is recommended for editing and indexing the supplement to the code of laws—$5.000 for the United | States Code and $1,000 for the District Code, the latter suffering a cut of $500. Capitol Study Eliminated. The committee has eliminated the estimate of $10,000 for a restudy of the plans and estimates of cost and the building of models for the extension of the east front of the central portion of the Capitol Building and the facing of the west front of the center with marble The approximate cost of the project is $3,000,000. In view of the fact that the undertaking is one urged mors from its desirability as an architectural improve- ment of the building rather than from the standpoint of necessity, the sum re- quested has not been allowed. The sum of $406.000 is recommended for construction of the new House Office Building, and it is the opinion of the architect of the Capitol that unless un- foreseen expenditures arise this sum will be sufficient to complete the job. The authorized cost for site and build- ing by the act of January 10, 1929, is $8.400,000. Appropriations for site and | construction, including the amount in this bill, total $7.406,000, or approxi- mately $1,000,000 under the authorized limit of cost. The amount of $400,000 in the recent deficiency ishings was not included in the original authorized limit. Even in- cluding this charge, the cost of the site and building complete and furnished 1s approzimately $600,000 under the au- thorization, The act of June 13, 1930, authorized the construction of an annex bullding for the Library of Congress, together with structural changes in the main building and additions thereto, to cost 0.000. The site ac- quired is directly east of the present | butlding and the total appropriated for acquisition and clearing is $941,201.94 anted the archi- tect of the Capitol to enter into con- | tracts for construction of both the ad- dition and annex at a cost not to ex- ceed $6.500,000. For commencement of | construction the sum of $1.000.000 was j carried for the current year. The esti- ! mates for the accompanying bill called for $2.500.000, of which approximate £500.000 15 on account of the addition and $2.000,000 fo annex.

The baby was taken to the hospital by Sergt. G. L Hellmuth and C. R. Murphy of the eighth precinct police, after Edward had notified a policeman friend of his find. Detective Sergt. O. W.

Rockefeller, jr., which expires next August. The personnel now engaged in the enterprise totals 25 and the appropria- tion allowed will provide for retaining less than half that number. The librari- an of Congress most earnestly urges a further development of the project not only in the int of the Library of Congress, but for the very great ad- vantage of the serious investigators throughout the country In explaining the half-million-dollar |increase for the Government Printing Office to clear up the deficit of that es- tablishment, the committee report says “The annual wor capital which covers the cost of printing and binding for Congress, the architect of the Capi- tol and the Government Printing Office has ed to be insufficient for that pr purpose because of the increased volume ot work ordered by plemental estimate . has been Congress. A sup- n House document ubmitted by the increase the amount [ )0 to $3,000.000, and this sum is recommended.
