RAINEY AND GARNER GIVE COMMITTEES PROPOSAL Prospect Is for Approval Within Few Days of Legislation to Add $150,000,000 to Income of Gov- ernment—Note Is Termed Brief- est in History. In a surprise message of two sentences, President Roosevelt asked Congress today to enact beer legislation immediately. Democratic leaders of both Sen- ate and House let him know at once that they would follow his recommendation. Vice President Garner referred it to the Senate Finance Commit- tee. Speaker Rainey turned it over to the House Ways and Means Committee. The prospeet was that within a few days both branches would approve the legislation and put taxes on the beverage aimed to bring in $150,000,000 a year to- ward balancing the budget. Briefest in History. Called at the White House briefest presidential message in His- tory,” Mr. Roosevelt’s 72 words were: “I recommend to the Congress the passage of legislation for the immediate modification of the Volstead ect, in order to legalize the manufacture ‘and sale of beer and other beverages of such alcoholic content as_is permissible under the Constitution;” and to provide through such manufacture and sale, by substantial taxes, a proper and much needed revenue for the Government. “I deem action at this time to be of the highest importance.” The Democratic leadership and anti- prohibitionists expressed confidence the votes to pass the bill without ado were to be had. Economy Comes First. “I hope it may be disposed of as promptly as may be found practicable,” Senator Robinson of Arkansas, the Democratic leader, said, adding that “we will have to get this economy pro- gram out of the way first, however.” Few members knew the message was coming. When A. E. Chaffee, reading clerk, read the first line, shortly after the ‘moon meeting hour, the house burst into wild applauce. Persons in the sparsely filled galleries joined the members. A few rebel yells were shouted. At the conclusion of the short mes- sage some members stood and ap- plauded Others shouted and smiled broadly. Kahn Asks About Wine. After Representative O'Connor, Democrat, of New York, advocated a beer of 3.2 per cent alcoholic content Representative Kahn, Republican, of | California, asked about wine. “I understand 3.2 per cent wine is not very invigorating.” O'Connor re- plied, as members laughed, but he added that he thought something could be done about wine. Then Blanton, Democrat, of Texas, a prohibitionist, took the floor to say his “confidence in the President still is unchanged.” “He has not requested the House to legalize beer of an alcoholic content that is intoxicating,” he added. “1 want to call your attention to a Teport on the Collier beer bill signed by some of the finest Republicans who ever sat in the House. “They sald that 3.2 per cent beer would be intoxicating and that they could not stultify themselves by vio- lating their constitutional oaths and voting for it.” Patman, Democrat, of Texas, inter- rupted Blanton to say that his Texas (Continued on Page 2, Column 6.) .

B. & A. Railroad State, County and Local Levies Invalid for Two Years Ending January 1. By the Associated Press. The act of the Maryland Legislature exempting the property of the Wash- ington, Baltimore & Annapolis Electric Rallroad from State, county end city taxes for the two years ending January 1, 1933, was sustained today by the Supreme Court. ‘The Maryland act was passed when a receiver was appointed in 1931 and discontinuance of the service of the railroad was imminent. It exempted the property used for railroad purposes from charges in the nature of a tax. including contributions to construction of railroad crossings, as long as the property was used for railroad purpoces, but not exceeding two years, beginning January 1, 1931. The mayor and the City Council of Baltimore filed a claim for taxes amounting to approximately $50,000 a year and the mayor, counselor and aldermen of Annapolis asked about $3,000 a year. ‘The Federal District Court for Mary- land upheld the validity of the act, denying -the claims of Baltimore and Annapolis for taxes. The Fourth Cir- cuit Court of Appeals reversed the trial court, and held the exemption act invalid and in conflict with both the Federal and State constitutions. HOUSE . C.

FOES OF ECONOMY ARE HIT AS SENATE KEEPS IT ON FLOOR Motion to Send Roosevelt Program to Committee Is Tabled. ADVOCATES ARE CHEERED, SEEING EARLY PASSAGE McNary Believes Most G. 0. P. Will Support President in Drastic Cuts. By the Assoclated Press. The Senate today tabled a motion by Senator McCarran, Democrat, of Nevada, to refer the Roosevelt economy program to the Judiciary Committee. Failure of the attempt to send the bill to committee represented a severe setback for foes of the legislation. Its advocates immediately expressed more confidence that the drastic authority requested by President Roosevelt over veterans and Federal pay roll costs would he granted within the next sev- eral days, the House having already voted in favor. G. 0. P. Not to Be Bound. After a Republican conference today, Senator McNary, the party leader, said no effort was made to bind the Re] licans on the bill, but he was “led to believe from the discussion that a sub- stantial majority will support the Presi- dent in the passage of this measure.” All the discussion, he said, dealt with the veterans’ section, by which ‘the President hopes to save $400,000,000 in Federal expenses. Some Republicans favored changing the bill to limit the cuts to veterans to 15, 20 or 33Y; per cent, and it was indicated Senator Dickinson, Republi- can, of Iowa, would prcpose an amend- ment with the 15 per cent limit instead of the discretionary power. The Senate vote on tabling the reso- lution to send the bill to committee, which constituted the first test of Sen- ate sentiment, was 60 to 20. Democrats Show Strength. Soon after the Senate met the mas- sive Democratic majority showed its strength in refusing to send the bill to committee. 2 In this first test on the administra- tion economy program 40 Democrats and 20 Republicans voted to table the mo- tion, while 11 Democrats and 9 Repub- licans voted against killing . ‘The Vice President’s desk was flooded with amendments to the measure, many of them from the Democratic side, and petitions presented by Senators on be- half of their constituents. Senator Reed, Republican, of Penn- sylvania presented a telegram from Charles S. Dewey of Chicago, saying the Crusaders, with more than 1,000,- 000 members, including many former service men, advocated the bill. During the debate, Ray K\Ir&hy. Ida Grove, Towa, chairman of the National Legislative Committee of the American Legion, issued a statement saying Sen- ators “should realize the ruthlessness of the measure as it is to be applied.” Even opponents of the latest plan conceded today that the economy bill passed Saturday by the House would have Senate approval tomorrow or ‘Wednesday. This, combined with reorganization authority already granted by the last Congress, completes, for the time, the immediate economy steps of the new President in his attempt to make good a campaign and platform promise of a 25 per cent reduction in expenditures. It brings, too, success where condi- tions brought failure to President Hoo- ver despite numerous pleas for congres- sional action and warnings against “locust swarms of lobbyists.” Democrats Draw Cheer. Democratic leaders, anxious to put through Mr. Roosevelt’s economy bill, drew cheer from concessions by oppo- nents that Senate passage was assured. Senator Harrison of Mississippi, chairman of the Finance Committee and in charge of the legislation, announcing that he would call up the proposal in the Senate today, said: “Republican and Democratic votes will pass this bipartisan measure.” And Senator Connally, Democrat, of ‘Texas, who voted against Finance Com- mittee approval of the bill, conceded it would pass without change. There remained possibilities that Sen- ate Democrats might split,’as did that party in the House Saturday before the economy bill there, 266 to 138. seltmtle Democi-‘nntll‘cn leaders, however, lfid not plan a prel ary party caucus like that which brought the House difference into the open. , they counted op a majority of the Democratic votes and e: many Republicang to join them.

President Roosevelt today accepted the resignation of Maj. Gen. Herbert B.

F. C. Aid Urged With $40,000,000 Damage. By the Assoclated Press. LOS ANGELES, March 13.—After a week end of terror, shattered Southern California cities today counted the loss of life from a devastating series of earthquakes at 119 and property dam- age near the $40,000,000 mark. As agencies of reconstruction were set in motidn, fear was largely dissipated through the growing infrequency of the earth shocks. A falrly strong earthquake was felt, however, at 5:18 a.m. today. The shock came & few moments after Henry Ufen, 45, of Los Angeles, the 119th| Hospital. victim, died at the General Hospital. The latest tremor was of sufficient violence in Inglewood to awaken sleep- residents. In San Pedro it was de- scribed as “pretty heavy,” and Long Beach officials added that “it was about as strong as any we've had since the original one on Friday.” A preliminary survey failed to reveal additional damage. Threads of confusion still weaved through the work of relief squads, cen- tering principally among the injured.

F1 Goes to Sabeommittee, Mean hile the Senate Banking Com- mittee eferred the Glass bank reform bill to & subcommittee headed by Sen- ator Glass, Democrat, of Virginia, author of the measure. The bill prob- ably will form the basis for President Roosevelt's banking reform program. Regarding the Robinson measure, Senator Glass said the emergency bill already covered the Robinson proposal in a larger degree than the Democratic leader proposed and therefore the lat- ter_ was unnecessary. Robinson said he was not certain whether his measure. was “a material modification of existing law.” Under the proposal, State banks could apply for direct loans, but the applica- tions must be accompanied by a written statement from the State banking de- partments that the institutions are sound. Senator Glass said “the law already provides that any individual, concern or corporation, including State banks, may receive direct accommodations from Federal Reserve banks so that this matted is already covered in a larger degree than is provided in this bill.” Appeals for Small Banks. In the House, Representative Can- non (Democrat), Missouri, said that unless supplementary legislation wefe enacted at this session of Congress the small country banks would be destroyed.
