By the Associated Press. Congressional conferees on the ad- ministration securities bill clashed to- day on the heart of the legislation— liability of officers and directors for the facts on which they sell to the public. Neither side would yield and no agree- ment was reached on this or the other controversial points. Another meeting was scheduled for 3 Provides Civil Responsibility. The Senate bill provides that officers and directors of a company are clvl’ ru&ennble for truth of statements file with the Federal Trade Commission in tors if they showed they had reasonable ground for believing the information lc_‘cruhx:te. prot was studied at mitise tad by the Senaty Ct t1 1t held in its report to the Senate that this lability was “essential to accom- plish the objects” of the legislation and “goes to the essence of relief to the public.” | “They ought to know if the informa- tion they file is accurate,” Chairman Fletcher of the Senate conferees said, in explaining the issue after the con- ference. ‘“The public depends upon the information be! true.” Disagree on 30-Day Period. The conferees also failed to reach an agreement on the House provision ree quiring that 30 days must elapse be- tween filing an issue and placing it.| on_the market. Senate conferees held this would unnecessarily handicap underwriters who signed s contract for an issue at a certain figure and would not be able to tell what market conditions might be 30 days later. — — POLICE LAUNCH DRIVE TO BAR SUNDAY VENDERS INearly Score Arrested Under Re- cently Enacted Regulation Against Street Sales. Enforcing the recently enacted regu- lation prohibiting street sales on Sun- day, police throughout the city arrested almost a score of venders yesterday and their cases were to be presented in Police Court today as tests of the new law. « ‘The regulation was enacted February 10, but until recently had not been enforced.

Most of those arrested were selling ice cream. One man, George E. Chalk, 24, Riv- erdale, Md.,, was arrested twice in the sixth precinct for selling ice cream. After his first arrest he deposited col- lateral and then returned to his selling and was again taken into custody and forced to deposit more collateral.

CABS TO SHOW RATES Distinction Between Meters and Zones to Be Displayed. In a move to establish clear dis- tinction between flat rate and meter rate taxicabs, the Public Utilities Com- mission today directed that cabs op- erating with meters be equipped with large, permanent signs inscribed “me- ter rates.” ‘The metal signs are to be fixed on both rear doors of the cabs, so they can be read easily, either when the door is open or closed. The lettering is to be two inches high. The signs will be about 16 inches wide. The form of the sign was suggested by Richmond B. Keech, people’s coun- sel, defender of the flat rate zone sys- tem of cab fares. The Utilitles Com- mission favors use of meters exclu- sively.

By the Associated Press. ‘Those who hope to get jobs as a result of the Roosevelt prosperity drive must be patient for the present. The administration promise of in- creased employment with enactment of its emergency program, particularly t inflation measure, has brought to Was ington many inquires as to where t new jobs are to be found, but no agency here now is equipped to place men. Outside of the Civilian Conservation Corps, with its dollar-a-day forest jobs, the Government is not employing men directly. ‘The public works program soon to be sent to Congress is expected to aid the building trades, common labor to some extent and shipyard workers, but most of the jobs, if not all, will come through contractors and through increased busi- ness in the supply trades. The general hope of the administra- tion is that industry and business gen- erally will be quickened, needing more help. The Spring already has brought some private re-employment. ‘The industrial control legislation to be incorporated in the public works bill is particularly designed to stimulate new jobs by limiting working time, in- creasing purchasing power of wage and salary earners and thus increasing con- Auapflon, which in turn creates more Jobs. A new Federal-State system of em- ployment exchanges also is in process of creation, its purpose being to put avail- able workers in touch with jobs suited to their capacities, no matter where they may be available. UNION ELECTION STILL UNFINISHED BUSINESS Coal Teamsters’ and Hikers’ Meet- ing Postponed by Chicago State’s Attorney. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, May 15—The proposed election of officers of the troubled Coal Teamsters and Hikers’ Union was still a matter of hed business today. A meeting called for that purpose yesterday was postponed by State’s At. torney Thomas J. Courtney, who lately declared open warfare on racketeer control of unions. To make certain there would be no meeting he had a garri- son of 200 policemen stationed out in front of the hall to disperse the several thousand members as they arrived. When a meeting is held Courtney said he would direct it. Courtney’s action was taken after George Roy Baker, leader of an in- surgent group within the union, re- ported that his home had been made the target of bullets fired by snipers early in the day. No one was injured, but Baker said the bullets left their marks on walls and furniture.
