Seeks Information on Deals. Mr. Farley, In a statement issued to the press through the Democratic Na- tional Committee. called for all or any information which shows that such deals were being made for Federal office. and also for information regard- ing any pe: who might represen: *themselves as able to obtain appoint- ments provided the contributions were | forthcoming. He said “Rumors have reached me to the ef- fect that many people believe that posi- ticns are being secured or retained in ‘Washington, or promotions effected through contributions to the Democratic deficit < “Nothing could be further from the Hact and I solicit information as to any case concerning. which negotiations Zof this character have been made.

All ©of these groups have been told, however, that the only money-raising activities mow in progress are being conducted by the various Democratic State organiza- tions. each State having its quota. “I would like to be informed of any groups who may be representing them- selves as having the authority of the National Committee to raise funds to apply to the deficit. I would further- more solicit information of any im- proper action on the part of persons in our organization or outside of our organization who may be holding them- elves out as able to get jobs. retain obs or secure promotions through any ch negotiations.” Reply to Snell's Attack. While the Democratic administration is pushing ahead with its plans for re- covery and Is seeking to put into effect as quickly as possible the public works program, the industrial Tecovery act. the farm relief act and the other major features of the recovery program, it is| not overlooking the need of spiking such Teports of alleged corruption. The Dem- ocratic party intends to put its best foot forward, now that it is in command of the situation. with an eye to the elec- tlons for Congress next year and the presidential election in 1936. It does not intend to take Republican criticism lying down. For example. almost half a dozen replies to the recent attack on the administration and the Democratic ngress made by Representative Snell of New York. minority leader of the House. have been made by prominent Deinocrats. including Chairman Farley of the National Committee. Incidentally it may be mentioned in this connection that many prominen Republicans are not at this time pre- pared to go along with Mr. Snell. Sen ator David A. Reed of Pennsylvania and one or two others who have undertaken _to give the Roosevelt administration a drescsing down. There are two reasons ‘why they prefer to “lay off” the Roose- veli administration at this time The first is that they do not believe it is good sportsmanship to attack the pew administration until it has had a chance to demonstrate what it can do. ‘The second. and more persuasive, is that the rank and file of the Repub- lican party in this country is more in- terested in having the Roosevelt re- covery program prove a success than it is in putuing the Democrats in a hole. When it comes to a matter of dollars and cents. of the old bank ac- count. the Republicans are as anxious for recovery in the United States as is any Democrat. McNary Is Biding His Time. ‘The Republican leader of the Sen- ate, Charles L. McNary of Oregon. may be observed. is issuing no diatribes against the President and his adminis- tration right now. This does not mean that Mr. McNary has turned Democrat It merely means that he is probably a shrewder politiclan and wiser than some of the rest of the G. O. P. leaders. It does not mean that he will not when the time comes attack the Democrats He is merely biding his time. And first and foremost, Mr. McNary is probably | hoping that there will be recovery in this country no matter which party is in power. He probably believes that if the Republican party. through attacks on Roosevelt and his administration. could throw a monkev wrench into the recovery machinery and prevent actual recovery, it would be the height of stupidity, even from a political point of view With the Republican leader of the Senate laking such an attitude, and the Republican leader of the House an opposite attitude, there seems room for a better understanding on the part of | the G. O. P. as to just what its pre- gram shall be for the next few months There is at present no active and 1 dividual leadership of the Republica party. Former President Hoover is rest- ing in the Far West National Committee is headed by Ever- ett Sanders of Indiana, former mem- ber of the House and former secretars to the late President Calvin Coolidge Mr. Sanders has sought to stir up a certain amount of activity among the Republicans, with regional conferences of Btate leaders. etc. He has made a h here and there urging the Re- publicans to hold themselves a fighting minority. Sanders to Continue. Under one of the recent rules adopted by the Republican party in convention, a meeting of the National Committee can be convened if 16 of its membe:s ition for such a meeting. There ave been frequent rumors and reports that a sufficient number of the Na- tional Committee members were pre- pared to sign such a petition for a meeting. for the purpose of reorganizing the National Committee with the se- lection of & new chairman. The best information at hand is. however. that no such meeting will be forced at this time and that Mr. Sanders will continue to serve as na- tional chairman at least until the first of the year. While there are those among the committeemen and commit- teewomen who might desire a reorgani- mation, there apparently is no one at this time on whom the members a. ready to center for chairman. And furthermore, many of the members be- lieve it is far better to let matters ride along as they are for a while. Some of the members say frankly, however. that they believe that Mr. Sanders could ease the whole situation by voluntarily | petiring next Fall or Winter.

BREAD PRICES | NOT TO ADVANCE | FOR PRESENT TIME| | | ing v the cutter he would from som: | | __ (Continued From First Page) the manner in which they endeavored | to impress the public with the fact that | present prices of bakers' bread are jus- tified: ‘We do not propose to know all about the milling and baking business but we do know that the cost of raw material is a very small proportion of the cost to the ultimate consumer, of any manufactured product.’ ‘Bakers put | some other things besides flour into their bread. and they have a manufac- turing cost as well as cost of selling and distributing.” “The hue and cry against the baking industry is not justified.| There is 8 vast amount of expense en- tailed between the wheat and the loaf.’ ‘The figures bakers use in defending their prices are convincing.’ ‘It would be unfair to expect as proportionately great a reduction in bread prices as in wheat or flour prices.’” “This same issue.” Mr. Peek said, “also quoted with approval a report is- sued by the Department of Agriculture as of February 28, 1931. in which the| following statement appeared: ‘One bushel of wheat will provide enough flour for about 62 loaves of bread. 1f. then. wheat were to drop 62 cents per bushel. and all this decline in the price of wheat were reflected in lower flour prices to the baker. this would make & difference of 1 cent per pound loaf in his baking costs.” Explains Increase. “The advance in wheat prices from the middle of May to the present time represents an additional cost of less than one-half cent a loaf of bread,” Mr. Peek said. The processing tax which becomes effective at the end of this week will add approximately one- half cent more to that cost of the wheat included in a loaf of bread, with one- eighth to one-fourth of a cent addi-' tional to cover the rise in other in- gredients. 1If all of this cost is pa: on to consumers a rise of only a little | more than one cent a loaf above the price prevailing in May would be justi- fied to cover the extra cost of wheat in the bread. “It should be remembered, however, that during the long period when prices were declining, the decline in price was | passed on in lower prices to consumers ' only very slowly. Wheat prices were declining practically continuously over the period from the beginning of 1925 through 1929. It was not until 1927 that bread prices started to decline and even then very slowly and to a lesser extent than did the price of the wheat represented in the bread.” ‘The wheat processing tax which be- came effective last night covers all wheat being processed into flour or otherwise for human consumption. A tax on flour stocks held by millers and wholesalers became effective at the same time. Retailers have 30 days in which to dispose of their wheat prod- ucts. In the case of flour the tax amounts to $1.38 per 196-pound barrel. Conversion factors have been established for other products by the Bureau of In- ternal Revenue. =gt @irl Flyer Dies in Crash. .

The order also called for the re- scinding of dissolution measures against certain Catholic societies and organi- zations. Vice Chancellor Franz von Papen. | who conducted the negotiations with the Vatican, informed the government that relations between the church and the state had been determined and that all possibilities of future strife had been eliminated. It was explained that in the main the concordat merely extends to the! whole Reich previous concordats which | the Vatican had concluded with the in- dividual States of Bavaria, Prussia and Saxony. With a threat of punishment the chancellor foroade a repetition of re- pressive measures against such organ- izations as are recognized in the con- cordat. “The concludihg of the concordat.” he said, “gives sufficient guarantee that German Roman Catholics will hereafter unreservedly support the national So- cialist state. “I am happy in the conviction that the epoch has closed in which religious and political interests were apparently irreconcilably opposed. “I sincerely hope the Protestant ' church will settle its differences as soon as possible.” BOOTLEG ALéOHOL PLANT SEIZED IN PHILADELPHIA Police Shake-Up Threatened After Discovery of Still Near Station. : PHILADELPHIA, July 8 (#).—A po- lice shake-up was threatened by Acting Director of Public Safety Theodore Wood after the discovery of a $200,000 bootleg alcohol plant less than two blocks from the Fourth and York | streets police station. | Twenty-one officers, including the | district _commander, Acting Capt. | Charles Stevens. three sergeants and three special detectives. were sum- | moned to City Hall, and quizzed for several hours.
