BOOSTINH.0.L.C. LOAN LIMIT SEEN House Banking Group Acts to Stave Off Increases Above $1,750,000,000. By the Associated Press. In an attempt to stave off amend- ments for bigger increases, the House Banking Committee today agreed to amend the pending Home Owne.s’ Loan Corporation bill so as to ex- pand the H. O. L. C.'s lending limit by $1,750,000,000 instead of $1,500,- 000.000. This agreement was reached in answer to a plea from the unofficial House Democratic Steering Committee. The amendment, which the com- mittee will offer during consideration of the pending bill, also would direct the H. O. L. C. to accept all applica- tions for aid heretofore filed “in good faith” and those presented within 60 days after enactment of the new legislation. As originally approved by the com- mittee and reported to the House, ap- plications would have been accepted only up to the day the President signed the bill making the new funds available. Prior to today's action, a move to drop another half-billion or more into the money till of the H. O. L. C. and throw it open to new applications had | picked up considerable momentum. President Roosevelt some time ago said he hoped the expansion could be held to $500.000,000. WILLIAM B. DERN T0 WED TOMORROW Bon of Secretary of War Will Marry Miss Mary Helen McCollum.

Seer Who Foretold World War Warns of Another Catastrophe MISTRIAL RECOVERS Declares Present Crisis Worse Than in 1914—Hopes for Federation of Nations. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, March 8.—Mme. Rosika Schwimmer—whom Lloyd George credits with prophesying the World ‘War—described the situation today as “worse than in 1914.” “The whole world is just one big danger spot,” said the woman who gained international fame as the dynamic leader of the Henry Ford peace expedition in 1915. “The menace lurks in Europe, in Asia— everywhere, No matter where the conflict starts, all the nations will be in at the finish.” She envisaged a world federation of all nations as the one agency to stave low them to retain their individuality and their own social, political and economic life. It would bring them all together to make the world safe against war.” Mme. Schwimmer retains the vigor that was hers when she carried her fight for citizenship to the United States Supreme Court in 1929. Her request was denied because of her re- fusal to bear arms. 3 “Giuseppe Zangara was admitted to citizenship when I was turned down,” she asserted. “That seems an ab- surdity. He swore he would bear arms—and he bore them.” She referred to Zangara's attempt to shoot President-elect Roosevelt at Miami.
