CHICAGO, December 16.—National | Republican leaders, rallying from one | of the worst defeaets in their party's history, gathered today to begin a | program of rehabilitation.

They could give the chairman the | “expression of confidence” he said | would be necessary before he would | undertake the job of keeping the | minority party command during the | next four years, or they could formally accept his resignation and make a | new start with a n Hamilton indicated in Washington last night his belief that the time for plain speaking had arrived.

OFFICIALS ATTEND GENNERICH RITES President, Cabinet Members and Wives Pay Tribute at White House. BY J. RUSSELL YOUNG. Cabinet members and their wives joined President and Mrs. Roosevelt today in paying a final tribute to Gus Gennerich, . the Chief Executive's friend and bodyguard, who died sud- denly while accompanying “the boss” on his recent visit to South America. At funeral services in the east room of the White House Mr. Roosevelt’s grief at the loss of his personal aide was plainly visible on his face as he sat in front of the flag-draped casket. Throughout most of the services, the President sat with his head bowed, and there was no mistaking the mois- ture in his eyes as he left the room. On his order, the flag atop the Exe tive Mansion was placed at half staft for the day. Present at the ceremony were Vice President and Mrs. Garner, every member of the cabinet, with the ex- | ception of Secretary of State Hull, who still is at Buenos Aires, and Mrs. Morgenthau, Mrs. Swanson, Mrs. Cummings and Mrs. Roper. Other high-ranking administration officials were present, as well as many | members of the executive staff of the White House and several of Gen- nerich’s personal friends. Among the latter was Capt. A. W. Wallender of the New York City Police Department, | who had served with Gennerich when | they were both rookie policemen. Had Few Relatives.

Robert I. Miller also will make the trip as a representative of i Temple of the Shrine. The rites, conducted by Rev. Dr. G. :E. Lenski, pastor of Grace Lutheran | Church, were simple but impressive. | Apparently speaking extemporane- | ously, the clergyman first recited what he described as “appropriate passages” from the Bible, which, he said, he thought were expressive of | the hopes of the deceased.

The announcement also disclosed the denunciation today of the existing pact, “For some months,” an official com- munique stated, “commercial negotia- tions have been going on between Italy and the United States and the treaty drafts are now in the course of ex- amination. eign Minister Count Galleazo Ciano and William Phillips, United States Ambassador to Rome, signed a mem- orandum denouncing the agreement of Negotiations Started for | | effective in one year. | Almas | | *“Today at Chigi Palace Italian For- | PRESIDENT FACES HEAVY SCHEDULE Conferences on Congres-: sional Program and New Budget Planned. BY the Associated Press President Roosevelt, home from Buenos Aires with an expression of “highest hopes” for the Inter-Amer- ican Peace Conference, plunged today into the talk of setting up the ma- | chinery for his second term.

ATLANTA, December 16 (#).—Ig-| nazio Lupo, alias “The Wolf,” planned to ask Federal Judge E.

His habeas corpus petition attacks validity of a conditional commutation granted him by President Harding in 1921 and a revocation of the commu- tation by President Roosevelt on July 10 of this year. ls'ruusuw 37 OFFICIAL PIANC METROPOLITAN oPERA NEW SMALL cranp #5095 Only 5 f 1 inch Ian' EASY TERMS Bench.

Back from the Argentine, President Roosevelt chalked up another 12,000 miles in his travel-log today, carrying the total of his presidential journeys past the 100,000-mile mark. Many here believe Mr. Roosevelt, in his first term, has set a new record for presidential travel, outdistancing both William Howard Taft and The- odore Roosevelt. His major journeys included a 1934 trip to Hawaii by way of the Panama Canal; a 1935 trip to the pacific Coast and back through the canal; this year's campaign trip into the West,: and his drought inspection tour, ex- tended to Salt Lake City for Secretary of War’ Dern’s funeral.

AID TO RELIEF OF PSORIASIS SYMPTOMS The itching and irritation of soriasis is readily relieved by ienmol Ointment, an old formula containing in; ients well known to physicians for their effectiveness., To get best results, wash off the scales with a pure, mild soap. Res- inol Soap is gently medicated and free from excess alkali. Use it with warm water, then rinse and pat dry. Spread Resinol Ointment evenly over the surface, letting it remain for several hours during the day and overnight. Note how quickly its oily base enables the Resinol medi- eation to soothe the angry skin. Even when the rash begins to fade, do not stop using Resinol too soon. The eruptions of psoriasis have a tendency to recur. For this reason it is_advisable to continue Resinol applications as long as there is any trace of irritation.
