By the Associated Press. SAN FRANCISCO. May 14.—The Na- tion's business leaders meet here next | week to wrestle with economic and governmental problems. When the Chamber of Commerce of the United States convenes Tuesday for four days of examination of ecur- rent difficulties, it is expected taxation will be the central theme. About 2,000 business executives from all parts of the country will direct their guns on this target. Headquarters, established in the Palace Hotel, said today there also would be a thorough examination of Government expenditures, Federal, State and local. In connection with the tax problem, the prohibition question is expected to be brought to the floor. Chambers of Commerce of Detroit, 8t.

By the Associated Press. | Representative Rainey, the Demo- cratic leader, said in a formal statement yesterday that “a dole in this country is inevitable unless we can restore in- ternational trade.” His statement was a comment on Friday's appeal to President Hoover of the Rajlway Brotherhoods, urging a 25- year moratorium on foreign debts with a cancellation system based on imports of United States goods. Rainey said this plan, which is similar to that proposed by Alfred E. Smith, Democratic presidential nominee in 1928, “points out exactly the reasons for the unfortunate economic condition in which this country now finds itself.” “They correctly call attention to the fact,” said the House majority chieftain, “that our policy of isolation is respon- sible for the fact that our railroads and our industries are discharging men and reducing salaries.

PETERSBURG, Fla, May 14— A warning that Southern Baptists will not support the political party that nominates s “wet” for President was issued here tonight by the seventy- seventh annual convention of the de- nomination. It was contained in a 24-page report of the convention's social service com- mission. The paragraph read: “If efther of the political parties shall g0 wrong, either in platform or its nominees and undertake to destroy prohibition, we will turn away from that party and support a party and candidate that stand for maintenance and perpetuation of prohibition as our greatest national policy.” The report commended prohibition, world disarmament, better inter-racial relations and Boy Scout®work and op- posed military training, the motion pic- ture industry “as it is operated at the present time,” gambling, mob violence and clamoring for resubmission of the eighteenth amendment to the States.

WALKER OUSTER DEMAND FORESEEN IN NEXT FEW WEEKS | (Continued From First Page.) charges against the mayor, which the Times says undoubtedly will be filed by Samuel Seabury, chief counsel to the Hofstadter Committee, he would be ac- cused of seeking to protect Tammany. Seabury’s charges are expected to be filed shortly after he calls the mayor to the stand, which, reports say, he will do next week. Already having adduced evidence that Walker received a “gift” of $26,- 535 worh of bonds from a taxicab finan- cier, Seabury is expected to try to show a connection between the mayor and the $1,000,000 stock transactions of his missing business agent, Russell T. Sherwood, when public hearings are resumed on Wednesday. Roosevelt Prepared. Gov. Roosevelt is described by the Times as prepared to deal promptly with any charges that might be brought against the mayor. It is the general opinion among Dem- ocratic leaders, both favoring and op- posing Roosevelt’s nomination, the papers says, that Walker's removal would enhance the Governor's position throughout the country by affording ible evidence he does not propose to bow to Tammany, should the evi- | dence warrant removal. Roosevelt a year ago dismissed a pe- tition for Walker's removal filed by the City Affairs Committee on charges of official misconduct. The Governor said he found no justification for the charges. A few months ago the Governor re- moved Sheriff Thomas M. Farley, a Tammany man, for his failure to ex- plain large bank accounts. AT Breaks Leg in Fall.

One day a friend demonstrated to John that he was allowing his machine to deteriorate sev- eral dollars’ worth every night by failing to shelter it. John himself used to tell the story of the lazy farmer who left his tocls and machinery shelterless in all sorts of weather, but he forgot that his automobile was a more delicate piece of machinery than machines used by farmers.
