HOUSE: DEMOCRATS READY T0 DEBATE ROOSEVELT ORDER T0 GUT VETERANS Leaders to Meet Tomorrow to Consider White House Ultimatum—Senator Har- rison Also Summoned. REVOLT IS THREATENED OVER BUDGET ACTION Consideration of 25 Per Cent Limi- tation Delayed Until Public Opinion Can Be Sounded Out. Early Adjournment Appears Doomed. House leaders will debate at a special meeting tomorrow what action they will take on President Roosevelt’s ultimatum that if a limitation is imposed on the amount veterans’ benefits may be cut, new taxation will be neces- sary to balance the budget. The conference will be attend- ed by the House Democratic Steer- ing Committee, the special Vet- erans’ Committee and Chairman Cummings Names 1,000 as Suspects {Moves to Carry Out Orders for Return to Treasury. By the Associated Press. Attorney General Cummings said to- day he had transmitted to the field offices of the Bureau of Investigation more than 1,000 names of suspected gold hoarders, with a view to compelling compliance with President Roosevelt's order that all gold or gold certificates above $100 be returned to the Treasury. At the same time the Attorney Gen- eral denounced those who are still hold- ing their gold as “recalcitrant citizens who are not doing their full duty to their country.” The names which are now being in- vestigated were the first sent to the De 1 partment of Justice by the Treasury De- partment, which had compiled them from reports of banks over the country. The Attorney General said the agents of the Bureau of Investigation would inquire immediately of those on the list whether they still had the gold or gold certificates in their possessign. If so, the holder will be advised spe- cifically to turn in his gold immediately and the criminal section of the Presi- dent’s order, providing a fine of $10,- 000 or 10 years in prison, or both, called to his attention. The Attorney General said this course was taken to prevent, in the event of prosecution, the gold holder from ad- vancing the “specious claim” that he had never heard of the law. If the holder contends that the gold has left his possession, the disposition of it is to be traced. 10 QUESTION HOW ONKITS TOMORROW Buchanan of the Ways and Means Committee. Mr. Roosevelt last night warned House leaders that if they accepted the Senate increase in veterans’ expendi- tures they must add new taxes to pay for ‘the $170,000,000 cost. Meanwhile, 8§ er Rainey told ne! per men that if the House were ch'e?lwlt.h the alternative of rejecting th> Senate limitation or approving new taxes, it would “accept the limitation and refuse to levy taxes.” ‘The President also passed on to the recalcitrant Senate his command for a balanced budget in a talk with Chair man Harrison of the Senate Finance ‘Committee.

By the Associated Press. Louis McHenry Howe, President Roosevelt’s secretary, will be heard again tomorrow by the Senate Military Committee in its inquiry into the pur- chase of 200,000 toilet kits for refores- tation camp workers at prices the Army claims were excessive. , Democrat of committee members had decided to hear Howe‘.;be budget direc- limitation on Veterans' cuts until pub- | efy lic sentim on a new tax program could *be"d ed.

Other Democratic lead- ers expressed belief that it would not be brought up until possibly Thursday. Snell Declines to Help. Representative Snell of New York, the Republican leader, indicated little help could be expected from his party in an effort to reject the Senate amend- ment. “We were assured,” Snell said, “that there would be nothing to complain about on service-connected cases. But there is. “Here we give the President right to cut $400,000,000 off veterans ana then make an outright gift of $50,000,000 to | China to buy wheat and cotton. “Talk about needing new taxes wl balance the budget That’s bunk. The budget isn’t balanced and won't be bal- anced with $170,000,000 in new taxes, even if we accept the Scnate limitation.” Rainey, like other leaders, conceded these developments—resulting from last night's White House conferencé when Democratic chiefs were told that the! House either must reject the Senate limitation or add new taxes—'“make impossible adjournment by Saturday, as we had hoped.” “There is no way now of telling when we will get away,” he asserted. Some party leaders took the position that if the independent offices measure were called up immediately, the House might insist upon an amendment limiting the veterans cuts to 15 per cent, as against the 25 per cent approved by the Senate.

B the Associated Press. | TOKIO, June 5.—Japan’s reply to, President Roosevelt's May 15 world-| wide appeal for disarmament has been | completed and will be submitted for; the cabinet’s final approval tomorrow, it was learned at the foreign office to- day Immediately after the cabinet passes upon it, it will be handed American Am r Joseph C. Grew. It was authoritatively indicated that the reply will accept “in principle” the American President’s main proposals, with reservations previously indicated. A foreign office spokesman several weeks ago called Mr. Roosevelt's pro- posal that no nation should send troops scross any frontier most important #nd most dangerous” recommendation. “We learned at our cost the danger of signi international pledges with- out sufficiently clarifying what pledges the parties thereto really meant,” he i instructed Robert Fechner, n May 15 and the order for 5 and 6 that afternoon. The salesman told the committee he had a letter from Basil O’Connor, whom he identified as a former law partner of President Roosevelt, to gain entry to Howe's office. BeVier did not have the letter, but paraphrased it as he recalled it for committee members, remarking it was signed “Doc” which he said was O'Con- { nor's nickname. In substance, his paraphrase of the letter explained it as recommending to Howe BeVier and his company and his toilet kit offer as a proposition that might save the Government some money. _ Describes Reception. BeVier also told committee members that he did not think Howe's reception of him was what it should have been in view of a letter from O'Connor. Howe told the committee, in appear- ing last week at his own request to “clear up an impression that he had director of reforestation work, to order the kits,” that he did not know who had sent BeVier to him. He explained tbat what he had done was to sign a letter prepared by Lowcry on Budget Bureau stationery giving Pechner authority to buy the kits if he wanted to, after Fechner had doubted he had that authority. BLAMES CLERICAL ERROR. Gen. De Witt Says Order to Stop Buy- ing Kits Was Delayed. NEW YORK, June 5 (#).—The Eve- ning Post today quoted Maj. Gen. John L. De Witt, quartermaster general cf the Army, as saying that a clerical error caused the confusion surrounding the purchase of toilet kits for the Civillan Conservation Corps. An order issued on May 16 for the Army to cease buying toilet articles was not put into effect until May 25, it being mislaid in the channels of official communication in Washington, accord- ing to the explanation. As a result, the Army now has some 200,000 shaving brushes and 175,000 toothbrushes for which it has no use. Gen. De Witt was quoted as saying that except fcr this he would have made no complaint about the kits for which Rob- ert Fechner, director of the Conserva- tion Corps, contracted through the Be- Vier Corporation.

WILL VOTE ON LICENSE FEATURE LATER IN DAY Senate Committee Accepts Proposal for Ban on Shipment of 0il Produced Illegally. By the Associated Press. The Senate Finance Committee today adopted the Harrison tax program to finance the $3,300,000,000 public works project in the industrial recovery bill. | It eliminates the House increases of tax rates on small incomes. After voting this into the bill, the committee recessed until late in the day to vote on a motion to reconsider its rejection last week of the provision authorizing the President to license industries in enforcing codes of fair competition. President Roosevelt has urged the committee to reinstate the provision which is regarded by the bill's propo- nents as the only weapon to hold over industries which refuse to co-operate in the recovery program. Sales Tax Move Fails. ‘The tax program of Chairman Harri- son (Democrat of Mississippi) was ap- proved after a motion to reconsider re- Jection of the sales tax had lost 10 to 9. Sales tax advocates gained one more vote compared with last week's 10 to 8 Tejection.

In the letter to his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Henry C. Gibbs, 1821 Newton street, he said: “My body will never be found.” Philadelphia police made an exten- | sive search for Gibbs, but found no trace of him. Washington police then were called upon for assistance, but their search also proved . fruitless. Descrip- tions of the missing youth subsequently were sent to police in all parts of the country, with instructions to be on the look-out for him. About a week after Gibbs’ disappear- ance, his father, an employe of the De- partment of Agriculture, gave out an interview in which he declared he was | confident the youth was still alive— | that he must have suffered a mental lapse.

NEW YORK, June 5.—Charles E. Mitchell testified at his income-tax evasion trial today that in 1929 he tried to prevent the stock market crash by throwing his personal resources into the market. He told of returning from a trip abroad during a strong market to learn the stock of National City Bank, which he headed, was weakening and the National City Co. was loading up with it to cushion its fall. He sald he was astounded and held a conference with his associates. | . “Itold them the company had reached |its limit in the purchase of National City Bank stock,” he sald. “A big drop in the stock, I said, would have a disastrous effect on the market. I them I though some one must let that market down in an orderly fash- jon and that I was ready to use my personal resources to do so.” |~ Mitchell said he then went to the | Morgans, told them what he wanted to ‘,do, and they agreed to lend him money.

Advance of the Van Sweringen rail- road holdings from $2,000,000 borrowed in 1916 to the vast expanse now held was chronicled by Van Sweringen. Prodded by Pecora, the Cleveland op- erator traced the entrance of himself and his brother, M. J., into the rail field to a deal by which they got entree into the Nickel Plate 17 years ago. It developed that the entire down payment of $2,000,000 of the $8,500,000 price agreed upon was borrowed. Big Crowd Gathers.
