FARLEY PREDICTS SWEEPING VICTORY Minimizes Third Party Threat and Hints He M_ay Answer Long. A sweeping victory in 1936, No third party. This is the political outlook as en- visioned by Postmaster General Farley in his capacity as Democratic na- tional chairman. At the first press conference he has held in weeks, Farley yesterday after- noon touched briefly on the campaign next year; was discreetly silent on the part he is to play, and grimly hinted that he may have something to say re Senator Long in the future. He laughed away questions about his “resignation” from the cabinet, which has been rumored from time to time; the same for his reported gu- bernatorial aspirations; referred to “the boss,” President Roosevelt; in- quiries as to his own status in the quadrennial battle for control of the Government, an issue that has been raised because of the one-time inten- tion of the President to divorce Fed- eral officials from political posts. Scouts Worries. “The President hasn’t anything to worry about in 1936,” Farley empha- sized, “and that goes for the general congressional situation as well.” As for those critics who are declar- Ing that Congress has gotten out of hand, Farley recalls that this time a year ago the same people were saying that Congress was a “rubber stamp.” It doesn’t add up. Not paying much attention to Re- publican candidates. Sure of one thing, though—“the people haven't forgotten Hoover's administration.” And “nothing would please the Demo- crats more” than to have Represent- ative Hamilton Fish as the Republican presidential nominee. Avoids Reply to Long. As for a prospective “third Farley can't see it at all. He antici- pates the usual minority groups in the field, but none of commanding pro- portions. Farley was pressed for some ex- pression on the bitter attacks to which he has been subjected by Senator Long of Louisiana, but declined—now—to be drawn into any discussion. He did deny emphatically a recent statement by Long to the effect that had Franklin Roosevelt failed of nomination at Chicago in 1932 he planned to run for the presidency as an independent. “There wasn't any need for him to consider such a thing,” Farley added. “He knew all the time he was going to party,” THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D.

By the Associated Press. LOS ANGELES, April 5.—Police ra- dio cars cruised through the Boyle Heights district today guarding against another flare-up of trouble in a picketing campaign against butcher shops. Riot squads dashed to the scene last night when 500 men and women joined in & disturbance which start- ed when two housewives, Mrs. Edith Bernhard and Mrs. Anna Joseph, walked out of a shop. Pickets, representing two organiza- tions against high meat costs, attempted to seize the women's bundles and trouble started. Mrs. Joseph's eye was blackened and Mrs. Bernhard was cut and bruised. Later they said their pack- ages contained groceries, not meat. Ray Gollin, owner of the shop, said he and his wife and daughter were knocked down in the disturbance. ‘The Housewives’ League of Los An- geles and the United Conference Against the High Cost of Living are the principal leaders in the anti- meat-buying movement. ‘The two housewives’ organizations originated the “meat strike” several weeks ago when prices suddenly be- gan to rise. Pickets have been sta- tioned at numerous shops in the city. Famous Gallows Stolen.

CLEVELAND, April 5—~One out of every seventeen persons in the United States will go to a hospital in 1935, and many of the hospitals are worried where to find the funds to care for them adequately. This was brought out at the open- ing session of a sectional meeting of the American College of Surgeons here yesterday. The 1935 estimate is based on the 1834 actual count, just fin- ished. This shows 7,147,416 patients, 1,079,510 beds and an average hos- pital stay of 14 days. Half the beds, college authorities stated, are in tax-supported hospitals, but two-thirds of the hospitals are “voluntary” and to these latter go seven times as many patients as to the Government-supported institutions. It is these “voluntary” hospitals, non-profit making, where the bulk of the patients go, that face the finan- cialdilemma. About 400 of them have closed in the past five years, against about a dozen new ones starting. The patients who pay for service have decreased. Those asking charity treatment have increased. Dividends from endowments have dropped. Volllflflfl Hopitals have been une Federal relief funds to Ay cu-m for persons who are on relief and who enter hospitals as eharity cases, it was stated. ’I a barrage of questions, 75,000 at Eye Clinic.
