THE EVENING SAIL WORLD IN JUNK SENATE CONFIRN |5 "o, o 3 NOMINATION Eugene R. Black, Dave Hen- nen Morris and Robert Hayes Gore Approved. By the Associated Press. Three Roosevelt nominations were confirmed in quick order by'the Senate ! yesterday withcut a word of discussion. They were Eugene R. Black, governor of the Atlanta Federal Reserve Bank, as governor of the Federal Reserve Board; Dave Hennen Morris of New York as Ambassador to Belgium, and; Robert Hayes Gore, Flcrida publisher, as Governor of Puerto Rico. More than 50 Army and Marine Corps promotions and transfers like- wise were approved. Acheson Held Up. Action on the nomination of Dean G. Acheson of Maryland to be Under- gecretary of the Treasury was post- poned because of the absence of Sen- ator Couzens, Republican, of Michigan, who plans a vigorous opposition speech. Couzens complained when the pointment came up last week tI while he did not doubt Acheson’s hon- esty, he objected to placing men in responsible Treasury positions who would be in a position to favor former clients and associates in tax matters. Acheson is a Washington attorney. Senator George, Democrat, Georgia, sought permission to notify the Presi- dent immediately of Black's confirma- tion, but Senator McNary, the Repub- lican leader, objected. Seeks Early Work. George said he was motivated by the fact that the Federal Reserve Board lacked a quorum and the sooner Black took office the quicker the board could get to work on major problems con- fronting it, including credit expansion provided in the farm-inflation act. McNary said he would like to have accommodated George, but thought it best on such major appointments to adhere to the rule requiring notifica- tion be held up two days. He indi- cated he might not object to the notice going forward today. SEPARATE CHAIN STORE _ RECEIVERS ARE BARRED Supreme Court Ends Blamed for Waste—Action Left Practice to Original By the ed Press. The Supreme Court yesterday ordered ended the practice of appointing separ- ate receivers in various localities for chain stores and similar large enter- prises when they become insolvent. The court ordered that from now on Federal Appointees. District Courts refrain ‘from g ancillary receivers in such 1 obtain the consent of ch original bankruptcy proceedings were instituted, and then only with the consent of the receivers appointed by the original court. Federal Judge John C. Knox of New nd other distinguished jurists oposed this step to the high court, on the argument that the present lets open the door to great abuses and wastes assets of insolvent concerns at a great rate. Hitherto, it has been possible to have ancillary Teceivers appointed for a tion-wide corporation in any district in whose territory the concern maintained branches. Each receiver also was given an attorne; U. S.

The Senate today decided to summon to Washington to be heard in the im- peachment trial of Federal Judge Har- old Louderback, W. S. Leake of San Francisco, described in House impeach- ment articles as one of the jurist's closest friends. By the action, on motion of Senator Bratton, Democrat, of New Mexico, the Senate refused a plea of Louderback’s attorneys that a deposition be taken from Leake, the defense counsel con- tending he was physically unable to make the trip to the Capital. Brown Back on fland. This done, Francis C. Brown of San Francisco, returned to the stand for cross-examination by the defense in the trial of Louderback, whose impeach- ment on five articles involving appoint- ment of receivers and attorneys, was voted last year by the House. As the proceedings were resumed Louderback sat with his. attorneys at the front of the Senate chamber. Just before the cross examination of Brown began, the Senate agreed to meet hereafter at 10 a.m. for the im- peachment proceedings, with the trial to last three hours or so daily. The removal ot Addison G. Strong as receiver for the Russell-Colvin Co., for which Brown was one of counsel, and Hunter to that place, forms the basis of one of the five charges against the judge. Calls It “Outrageous.” Cross-examined by Linforth, Brown testified he had not consent:d to Hunt- er's appointment and considered the re- moval of Strong “wholly outrageous.” signed, saying he had consented to the Hunter appointment. ~Questioned by the defense counsel. Brown said it was “‘entirely possible” he had dictated that petition. Brown reiterated a statement of yes- terday that he did not consider that Herbert Erskine of a law firm with character. Brown subsequently said he had not had any personal differences with Erskine. MAY 22. “Look Out! { SAYS POSLAM If you suffer from eczéma OF & skin ‘eruption of some kind, it’s your own ‘ault.

By the Associated Press. CHEYENNE, Wyo., May 16.—Mount- ing totals pointed today to overwhelm- ing sentiment for repeal of the eight. eenth amendment in the Wyoming pre- cinct convention held yesterday. The results appeared to have placed the State definitely in the repeal col- umn, along with Michigan, Wiscon- sin and Rhode Island. ‘With 196 precinct conventions heard from, 397 delegates had been selected to vote for repeal in county conventions May 18, against 40 delegates pledged to vote for retention of the amendment. County after county reported no dry delegates elected. Popular Vote. The popular vote, on the basis of | 196 incomplete precincts out of ‘667 in the State was 9,517 for repeal to 2,237 | | against, with 15 out of 23 countles re- ported. There was no way of de- termining how many of the State’s precincts had held the conventions, but it was known many remote districts had not held them. Only one county showed a majority of dry-delegates on the basis of in- returns. Seven of Platte County’s precincts out of 28 had elected 11 dry delegates to 7 for repeal. Dry Law Repealed. Wyoming put a State dry law into effect at the same time the national prohibition act became effective in 1919. That law, the State enforce- | ment act, was repealed by the last Leg- islature. Last November the State voted more than two to one for repeal in a referendum which was an ex- rressxon of op.nion on the prohibition law. NEW JERSEY IN REPEAL COLUMN. NEWARK, N. J.. May 16 (®.—New Jersey, long considered a “wet” State and one of those which already has re- pealed its own enforcement act, will join Michigan, Wisconsin and Rhode Island today as favoring repeal of the prohibition amendment to the United States Constitution. Specifically, the voters of the State will ballot for delegates to a repeal con- vention. But the fact that ““dry” forces | fail the subsequent appointment of H. B.-“ led to file a sufficient number of names on petitions in 11 of the 21 counties makes the voting a mere for- mality. flprotection- economy-satisfaction Utocrat oiL A SPOTLICHT ON THE RACKETEERS This newspaper will begin a daily exposure of rackets which have been worked on business and professional men and housewives in the issue of Watch for This Warning— If's a Racket!” official records by James E. - Grant. by Harold I.
