THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, THURSDAY, MARCH 21, 1935. PRESIDENT PUSHES 10 FILL PROMISES Drive Is Reported Planned to Pass Controversial Bills This Session. By the Associated Press. With an eye upon the 1936 presi- dential campaign, the White House is | reported preparing a determined arive to force passage of much of the pend- ing controversial legislation during the present session of Congress. ‘Two potent reasons would seem to make necessary such presidential de- termination, the first being that most of the legislation in question was promised the Nation by President Roosevelt in his 1932 campaign. Fallure to obtain its enactment, with an overwhelmingly Democratic Con- gress would be playing into the hands of political opponents, it is pointed | out. The second reason, supplemen- tary to the first, is that it would be extremely dangerous to delay consid- eration of this legislation until next session when resultant intraparty strife on Capitol Hill would jeopardize chances of campaign harmony. Talk among some leading Demo- crats of scrapping a good bit of the administration’s controversial legisla- tion at this session, particularly the omnibus banking bill and portions of the social security program. is under- stood in informed congressional quar- ters to have caused some concern at the White House. Besides the $4,880,000,000 work-re- lief bill, passage of which now seems | assured, Mr. Roosevelt was represented as especially anxious to enact at this | session a bill continuing the N. R. A. | for two years, his social security pro- | gram, utility holding company legis- lation, transportation regulation co- | ordination, banking legislation, ship | subsidy, and the increase in the cap- ital of the Home Owners' Loan Corp | The President was said by some | officials to be planning to emphasize | the necessity of getting this program through before Congress goes home. = . | Four Mexicans Given Life. \ LOS ANGELES, March 21 (#).— Four Mexican youths, convicted re- cently on charges of kidnaping and | attacking Mrs. Leota Vogel, young beauty operator, were sentenced yes- terday by Superior Court Judge Fletcher Bowron to prison for life | Wwithout possibility of parole A customer of the SE- CURITY STORAGE COM- PANY who sent a long dis- tance motor van for her goods wrote saying: The | motor van drivers told me yours was the most orderly warehouse they had ever vis- ited.
