AFTER BRITISH ROW Blamed as MacDonald Reaches Home. By the Associated Pr LONDON, May 3.—The cabinet was | summoned to Downing street unex- plctedly this morning owing to “the pressure of domestic business.” The regular Wednesday session had been postponed until tomorrow so Prime Minister MacDonald, due home today from his conversations with President Roosevelt in Washington, could be present. It was understood that parliamen- tary affairs necessitated the meeting of Germany, Japan, | despite the premier's absence. d | MacDonald and his daughter Ishbel arrived at Waterloo Station later in the day and were greeted by large crowds. On landing at Southempton, the prime minister had declared he came home “very, very pleased” with the dis- cussions, in which, he said, he encoun- tered an attitude of co-operative good will to which the difficult problems of the world must yleld. U. S. Envoys Confer. A revolt agalnst the government by tariff diehards, it was believed in some political circles, had alarmed national government leaders to the extent of summoning the cabinet. The meeting, |it was believed, was for the adoption of a policy which will result in a vote of confidence if the critics of the trade agreements with Argentina, Denmark and Germany start their bombardment of the government again today. Norman H. Davis, American Ambas- sador at large, spent the morning conierence with Ray Atherton. charge d'affaires of the American embassy. His London stay was centered on MacDonald’s return and a talk with the premier regarding the tariff truce he proposed at last Saturday’s meeting of the Organization Committee of the World Economic Conference. This meeting, however, is not likely t | untll tamorrow night at the earliest cn account of Mr. MacDonald’s cabinet sessicn and a statement in the House of Commons on the results of his Wash- ington mission.

C, WEDNESDAY, MAY 3, 1933. TRANSFER OF BOTANIC GARDENS OMITTED BY HOUSE COMMITTEE EAT DELEGATE SAL FOR EUROPE Morgenthau, Murphy and Haas Leave on Short Notice for Geneva. By the Associated Press, NEW YORK, May 3.—A delegation typliying President Roosevelt's ‘new deal” in International politics, sailed aboard the Bremen early today to par- ticipate in a wheat conference at Geneva preliminary to the Interna- tional Economic Conference to be held at London in June. Members of the delegation, who met each other for the first time on the ship, were Henry Morgenthau, sr, of New York, former , Ambassador Turkey; Frederick E. Murphy, Minne- apolis publisher and farm authority, and George C. Haas of Washington, economist of the Federal Farm Board. At Geneva, they will confer on May 10 with representatives from Argentina, Australia and Canada. Their purpose, as Mr. Morgenthau put it, will be “to conduct a preliminary study of the wheat problem to be fol- lowed by a broader discussion among all the wheat importing and exporting nations with a view to preparing for full treatment of the subject by the London Conference.” Silent on Instructions. Mr. Morgenthau acknowledged that President Roosevelt had communicated to him his ideas on the subject in ‘Washington yesterday but he declined to elaborate on his statement. Mr. Morgenthau, 77-year-old diplo- mat and ardent pre-election supporter of Mr. Roosevelt, did not learn of his proj mission- until late yesterday, while Mr. Murphy was not advised it until noon yesterday in Washington. He said President Roosevelt had ad- vised him to fly to New York from Washington to catch the boat. “But I have suffered e h in plane in my Ilife,” Mr. Murphy said, “and I told the President I would do auything for him except one thing and that was to fly. So I didnt fly.” But Mr. Morgenthau, who uses planes frequently, said his instructions were to fly from Cherbourg to Geneva in order to reach the conference on time. Murphy said he would not join Mor- genthau snd Haas on that trip but would follow by train. Will Miss Golden Wedding. Mr. Morgenthau said he understood that a second conference preliminary to the London meeting would be held in Budapest May 28, to be attended principally by representatives of the Balkan states. He also said that Presi- dent Rcosevelt had designated him as one of this country’s representatives at the big London conference. Mr. Morgenthau appeared to be Jook- ing forward eagerly to the conference, but said he had one regret at having w0 depart on such short notice. “Mrs. Morgenthau and I were going | to celebrate our golden wedding an- niversary May 10,” he explained.

There are 18 greenhouses coming under the juris- diction of the White House, appropri- ated for in the independent offices ap- able for other purposes.

Dr. Karl P. Kellerman, assistant chief, was another witness, Mr. Hess was not heard by the committee. .. _Taylor told the committee that the Department of Agriculture was well equipped to handle the rare plants at the Botanic Gardens should they be turned over to its control, The com- mittee, however, decided not to make any changes until the Joint Committee on Library, which now supervises the affairs of the Botanic Gardens, has had time to study the matter.

In the Spring and Summer, when diplomats leave, and there isn't much social activity going on here, the parks borrow from the White House greenhouses to keep the flower beds in the parks colorful. ‘The Botanic Gardens, around which the present issue revolves, however, are principally an exhibition place. Until a few years ago. one of the activities cf the Botanic Gardens was the supply- ing of bouquets to members of Con- gress. This practice was stopped re- cently by act of Congress. A report of the House Agriculture Committee on this point. filed in May, 1908, says: “The ~distribution of bougquets to members of Congress upon the order of the chalrman of the Library Commit- tee has become a custom which your committee recommends shall be dis- continued in the future.

An attempt yesterday by Senator Vandenberg, Republican, of Michi to strike out the clause granting Ala- | bama and Tennessee 5 per cent of the gross proceeds from sale cf power at Wilson Dam in Alabama and at the proposed Cove Creek Dam in Ten- nessee, won support from 11 Democrats, but was rejected. 43 to 31.

Senator Norris, Republican, of Ne- braska, author of the bill, argued it was only “common justice” that Ala- bama and Tennessee be given the 5 per cent, since they would be denied taxa- tion from the property taken over for dam and plant construction and the Government undoubtedly would make a profit from sale of power developed at the project. | e 3o COPPER MAGNATE IN U.'S.
