G. OF C. SEES TURN TOWARD RECOVERY Industrial Co-ordinator Also Hails Gains in Report to Roosevelt. By the Associated Press. A “swing toward economic recovery” was noted by the Chamber of Com- merce of the United States yesterday, coincident with a Commerce Depart- ment report of a decided pick-up in Tetail business last week. Simultangously, too, George L. Berry, co-ordinator for industrial co-opera- tion, reported to President Roosevelt a *“very decided improvement” in eco- momic conditions. ‘The chamber attributed better times to President Roosevelt's ‘“breathing spell” for business, while cool weather was credited by the department for better retail trade in all the 33 cities covered by its survey except New York, Boston, Washington, Atlanta and Philadelphia. Many Re-employed. By October, the chamber said in its business review, manufacturing in- dustries had re-employed 52 per cent of their workers who were idle in March, 1933. This percentage amounted to about 2,500,000 men. The railroads had taken back 95,000 men, the whole- sale and retail trades, 815,000, and the building trades, 434,000, “With the convening of Congress only 8 little more than six weeks away, business interest increasingly centers upon the prospects of new legislation, as it may tend to encourage or to re- tard the present upward swing toward economic recovery,” the review said. The Commerce Department noted that holiday demands already were being felt in & number of cities. But lagging retail business kept New York wholesale markets quiet. Furni- ture buying of Spring lines, however, was reported “excellent despite price Increases.” Philadelphia, on the other hand, noted better wholesale business. Man- ufacturers in the Pennsylvania city continued to report improvement. ‘Welfare Rolls Cut. Detroit welfare rolls were reduced by nearly 2,000 families. Relief rolls in the automobile center now are gmaller by about 20,000 than they Were a year ago. Chicago wholesalers told the de- partment orders in some lines were largely on a hand-to-mouth basis with business from rural districts still good. Toilet articles moved better than at any time since 1929. St. Louis 'wholesalers reported advance holiday buying better than for several years. Pittsburgh steel ~manufacturers| noted a “marked improvement in the tone of railroad purchases” while ship- ments to the auto industry were in- creasing. A number of Western car- riers were inquiring into railroad car prices. Steel for the auto industry still was the greatest factor in the Cleveland industrial area, although many Cleve- land manufacturers of heating and ventilating units had their best Au- tumn in four years. Cincinnati sent a 20-car train of electric refrigerators to New York for shipment to South Africa. Louisville reported distillers were preparing to undertake heavy building programs as a result of the recent repeal of the (Continued From First Page.) e e e b e desive raise as much more as he] wished. | The second line of attack on the| farm problem, Col. Knox said, might 'well be found in the increased use of | farm products for fabricated products. for many manufactures in industry as an example of what has been done. The production of soy beans has been enormously increased, with six mil- lion acres planted this year. Discussing the results of the recent elections, Col. Knox sald that while they had shown a decided trend #gainst the Roosevelt administratica, it would be folly for the Republicans to interpret them as meaning sure victosy next year. “What is needed, if the Republican party is to win next year,” he said, “is an intensive campaign of educa- tion. It would be ruinous for the Re- publicans to become over confident.” ‘Where the New Deal had been made Bn issue in the campaigns in varions States now ended, the Republicans had shown gains, Knox said, pointing particularly to New England and other Btates as far West as Ohio. In Ken- tucky, where the Democrats elected by a big vote their candidates for Governor, the Republicans had not raised the New Deal issue, Col. Knox fnsisted. The Republican candidate for Governor, King Swope, he said, had kept away from this issue and did not want speakers to come into the State to attack Roosevelt. Col. Knox saw as major issues in the coming campaign “broken-cam- paign pledges” on the part of the Roosevelt administration, a complete ndifference to the cost of the New Peal and to the probability of in- creased taxes, and the failure of the sdministration to apply the principle of economy in Government opera- tions. To Take Democratic “Discards.” He said the Republicans should write into their own platform next year at least six of the planks of the Democratic platform of 1932, all of which had been thrown into the dis- card by the Roosevelt administration. ‘Among them he enumerated a bal- enced Government, stabilization of the currency, the enforcement of the anti-trust laws, and old-age pensions and unemployment insurance by State laws. “The Democratic platform was beautifully written and beautifully discarded,” he said. While he announced himself op- to the Roosevelt New Deal, lock, stock and barrel, Col. Knox said the objectives of some of the New Deal measures were good. Everyone, he said, was opposed to child labor, if| favor of fair treatment of labor and sgainst the floatation of unsound se- curities. The trouble, he said, lay with the methods which had been undertaken to bring about reforms and better conditions. They were, he contended, unsound and coercive. Speaking of the political situation in Tlinols, his home State, Col. Knox said the -Republicans were more united today. than for years. Factiomalism has torn the party wide open in recent years, he said. t “AQyersity has its uses, even in pol- Bics,” sald Col. Knox. “Today the I THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C. NOVEMBER 17, 1935—PART ONE. Hoover at Army Game Along with some 80,000 others, former President and Mrs. Herbert Hoover saw West Point and the “Irish” clash yesterday at Yankee stadium. They were right down in front, with Lawrence Richey (right, wearing) derby), Hoover’s secretary. ~—Copyright, A. P. Wirephoto. Republicans have no patsonage Tllinois, Federal, State or county.” He would not discuss his own po- sition with regard to the presidential nomination. In answer to questions about his plans in that connection, his reply was: “I have nothing to say.” The Illinois State Central Republi- can Committee voted unanimously to request him to become the state’s can- didate for the Republican nomina- tion. “I have not answered yet,” said Knox. Nevertheless, it is generally expected that when the convention is held next year the Nlinois delegation will be on hand to vote solidly for Knox. Chicago, Col. Knox said, would seek both the Republican and Democratic national conventions of 1936. A com- mittee of 300 has been organized to campaign for these conventions. Both conventions were held in that city in 1932. Whether the Republican conven- tion would be held before or after the Democratic convention, Col. Knox said, would depend on whether the Democrats determined to hold their convention last. “It is right and proper,” he said, “that the party in power should hold its national convention first. That course was pursued by the Repub- licans in the past. If the Democrats insist, however, on letting things run along without fixing a date, then ob- viously the Republicans will go ahead and set the time for their convention irrespective of what the Democrats may do.” Democratic Critics Cited. The bitterest critics of the Roose- velt New Deal, Col. Knox said, have been Democrats.. Many of them, he said, had told him they would never again vote for Roosevelt. He did mot look, he said, for a national move- ment against Roosevelt in the Demo- cratic party, although he did expect such a movement to organize in some States. “I have been told,” he said, “that the opposition to Roosevelt may seek in the Democratic convention to break down the two-thirds rule.” Discussing President Roosevelt’s pol- icy of indorsing Progressives of the type of Senator Norris of Nebraska and La Follette ot Wisconsin, he said, the Roosevelt policies generally were leading to a realignment politi- cally. Many of the rank and file of the Democrats would not support Roesevelt, he insisted, although Dem- ocrats in office and those who looked to the administration for personal benefits would continue to support it. “Can Roosevelt be beaten next year,” he was asked. “Emphatically yes,” Knox replied. Col. Knox will be in Washington often in the next few months. Mrs. Knox has taken an apartment at the Shoreham Hotel for the Winter, seek- ing a milder climate than Chicago. He expects to spend most of his week ends here. in Hoover (Continued From First Page.) requiring that expenditures shall only be in aceordance with appropriations actually made by law should be obeyed. And they should be made for specific purposes. “The budget should be balanced, not by more taxes, but by reduction of follies. “The futile purchases of foreign sil- ver should be stopped. “The gold standard should be re- established, even on the new basis. “The act authorizing the President to inflate the curremcy should be re- pealed. “The administration should give and keep a pledge to the country that there will be no further juggling of the currency and no further experi- ments with credit inflation. “Confidence in the validity of prom- ises of the Government should be re- stored.” The former President said the Na- tion displagyed evidences of recovery “despite hindrances,” and that this “convalescence should be speeded and made secure.” Attacks “Planning.” Referring to planned economy as “the national planning” and “third economy,” Mr. Hoover said it had one “‘consigtency” of “carefree scattering of public money.” “They are haunted by no old ghost of a balanced budget,” he said. “But ‘national planning’ thinks in phrases and slogans rather than the exacti- tude of the cash register. We now know that in addition to increased taxes after four years of it the bill of increased taxpayers’' liabilities will be about $14,000,000,000. “If they have a cash register, it certainly has an astronomical key- board. “Judged by works and not by words, another consistency in this sort of ‘economic planning’ is to limit pro- duction—the essence of monopoly. They have given us planned scarcity— upon which civilization always degen- erates—in place of economic plenty, upon which America has grown great. “It i the more abundant life— without bacon.” Outlining the national accumula- tion of gold and silver as a currency metallic base, Mr. Hoover said the result was accumulation of; metal “that we do not need for any @onceive able purpose,” which, with the deval- ued dollar, “is likely to represent more 7 loss to the American people than a whole year's Treasury deficit.” By establishing a managed currency system, he said, the United States has subordinated itself to England and “trustingly reposed in London a large influence in American values and freedom in American trade.” “Dollar and Political Whims.” “In any event,” he stated, “so long as ‘managed currency’ lasts, the pur- chasing value of the dollar lies at the whim of political government.” At another point in his address. he said that the Government, “through politically-managed credit * * * has brought us to the threshold of devastating inflation. “The stock market is already peeking into that bluebeard's cave. “The new ‘national planning’ of taxes, currency, credit, and business has raised and will continue to raise,” he declared, “the cost of living to the farm housewife, the worker's housewife and all other housewives. “It is a deduction from economic and social security of the poor—it is not a more abundant life.” Mr. Hoover denounced New Deal ex- pansion of banks credits, and stated that it was such inflation by the Federal Reserve system in 1927 that caused the depression collapse of 1929. “In an effort to support the shaky financial structure of Europe,” he said, “our Federal Reserve system in 1927 Jjoined with foreign government banks in e:famlon or inflation of bank | credif “Some of us laymen had bitterly protested that we had no need of expanded credit, that in view of the then situation it would be dangerous. We were told it could and would be easily controlled. “There were other impulses, but this inflation of bank credit contributed to set off the greatest madness of speculation and greed since the Mis- sissippi bubble. Men then also dreamed they were in a new era.” Disclaims Responsibility. The former President disclaimed responsibility for the 1927 acts of the Federal Reserve, asserting “that was before my administration, and in any event at that time the system was: independent of the administration. “There are morals in that story,” Hoover said. “Despite that bitter experience, the new national planners, to finance their huge spending and other purposes, have desperately resorted to the same inflation of bank credits. “They, however, apparently do not believe in homeopathic doses. The dose of the same poison now injected into our national bloodstream by the POTATOLAWCASH (DISPLAY DEVOTED ISFOUNDBY U.S. Limited Funds to Enforce Act May Serve Until Con- gress Meets. By the Associated Press. The Farm Administration announc- ed formally yesterday that limited funds have been found for enforce- ment of the tax-control potato law. It said advances against tax col- lections and unallocated funds granted Secretary Wallace were designated by Cgntroller General McCarl for use in administering the potato act. In making the announcement, the A. A. A. made public a McCarl ruling that work relief money was not avail- able for the potato control law. The work-relief law provided part of the $4,000,000,000 might be used to carry out requirements of the adjust- ment act. But in a letter to Wallace, McCarl said that while the potato law was attached to the A. A. A, amendments, it did not amend the adjustment act. “Consequently,” he wrote, “the ap- propriations made by the emergency relief appropriations act of 1935 are not available for the expenses of ad- ministering the potato act of 1935.” The A. A. A. said an estimate will be made of receipts from the tax of three-fourths of a cent a pound on all potatoes harvested after December 1, 1935, and sold in excess of a na- tional allotment. Then an advance will be requested. However, officials said the estimate of tax collections, which must be ap- proved by the Secretary of the Treas- ury, probably would not exceed $25,- 000. J. B. Hutson, director of the potato division, said: “We anticipate that only a small quantity of potatoes will be taxed un- der the act, probably less than 1 per cent of the entire crop and less than | mate to be made on or about Decem- | ber 1. “This money, however, would enable the printing, engarving, and distri- bution of enough tax exemption stamps to cover the part of the crop | sold prior to the opening of the next session of Congress.” N Psychology Group to Meet.

NEW YORK, November 16.—The French influence, already predominant in the field of art here this month, received a new boost during the last week with the opening of an exhibi- tion of “Napoleonana.” ‘The Gallery for French Art, in Rockefeller Center, has assembled, with the aid of French museums and private collectors, what it calls “the most impertant historical rétord of a ‘lone man’ ever held in America, and undoubtedly the most comprehensive ever devoted to Napoleon, comparative held in the Louvre in Paris in 1932.” Articles ranging from famed por- traits to a baby’s rattle are gathered together in this collection, which is competing for interest with other exhi- bitions of a French flavor devoted ex- clusively to the creative art field. At the Museum of Modern Art a collection of the paintings of Vincent Van Gogh, nineteenth century Dutch painter, who had such a profound in- fluence on French art development, continues to draw crowds which made necessary lengthening of the regular museum hours. Attracted possibly by interest in the life story of the mad painter and by knowledge that this group of pictures was insured for $1,- 000,000 when brought here, as many as 2500 persons have crowded the museum in a single day. Meanwhile, the Wildenstein Gal- leries have placed on display a group ]reprvsemlng the seventeenth century French art, the Metropolitan Museum of Art this month is featuring French art of the eighteenth century, and the Marie Harriman Galleries are showing a group of “primitives” by amateur French painters of the nineteenth cen- tury. Also current is a small but select exhibition at the Bignou Galleries en- titled “Cezanne and the Impression- ists” and including works of Pissaro, Monet and Manet. The Gallery for French Art’s dis- titled “The General, the Consul, the Emperor, the Exile.” In addition to famous paintings of Napoleon, from his first portrait to his Among those on the dais with Mr. | the | | Navy: Everett Sanders, former secre- | | last, it includes portraits of the infant | “King of Rome” and of the Empress | Josephine. | The historical relics include many | which could not be moved, even though privately owned, except with permis- sion of the French Government, ORCHESTRA RETURNS FROM SOUTHERN TRIP After a week's concert tour, in which performances were given before large | audiences in several Southern cities, | National Symphony Orchestra re- | turned to the Capital yesterday and | will resume its Sunday afternoon | series of programs in Constitution { Hall at 4 p.m. today.

Coleman Jennings, chairman of the Special Assignment Unit, reported 27 new pledges amounting to $42,168.00. | This makes a total of 330 pledges ob- | | tained by this unit to date, with a monetary value of $337,529.00 or 58.90 per cent of its quota. | The Capital Unit, of which Col.
