Some Leaders Still Hope- ' ful for Adjournment by Next Week—Census Bill in Senate. Washingten, June 12.—(M—The axport. debenture controveray, the ssnate oentest over President Hoo- ver's recommendation for repeal of the. mational origins quota basis of the immigration act, and the be. ginning of work on the house tariff Bill by the senate finance committee, - left congress little time today to give thought to its plana for a summer vacation. Hope for Relief Soom Nevertheless, administration lead- ors, believing that the house would Teject the proposal to incorporate the export debenture plan in the farm bill and that the senators fav- ering it would then permit the Mmeasure to go to the presjdent with- out that provision, still believed that the situation would be sufficiently elear by the end of the week to be- &in-a recess then or soon afterward. Under the agreement reached by tongressional leaders at their con- ference with the preaident after the senate had again refused to follow his: advice against the debenture pian, the house will not vote on the fssue until tomorrow, and in the meantime it had only a relatively :cv minor bills on its calendar to- oy, . Ceasus Blll Before Senate ‘The new compromise bill to pro- vide for the taking of the 1930 cen- sus and reapportionment of the house, meanwhile, was before the senate, having been accepted by the house after the joint conference ecommittee had changed the date for beginning the canvass from the sen- ate’s choice of next November until April, next year. At the same time, the senate was confronted with a renewal® of ‘the national origins controversy, with Semator Nye, re- publican, North Dakota, leading the administration forces for action looking to repeal and Senator Reed. republican, Pennaylvanfa, heading the oppenition. The outcome of that contest is eonceded by proponents of both viewpoints to be in doubt, some even going so far as to believe that it may provide Vice President Curtis with his first opportunity to break a.tie vote. Frequent efforts to obtain an agreement for a vote this week have been blocked, but leaders expect & decision before Saturday night. ‘Tariff Hearings Soon The tariff bill, containing fuses o Set off controversies even more vio- lept than .that which has held up enactment of farm relief legislation, 18’ expecjed to occupy the finance eommittee in public hearings until July 10, after- which the measure will be rewritten and presented to the senate at the end of its contem- plated recess about the middle of August. The committee has divided into four subcommittees to take testi- mony on the various rate schedules proposed in the house bill so as to expedite the work. That procedure will not be started until tomorrow, however, the full committee of 11 republicans and eight democrats having decided first to hear a num- ber of witnesses today on the ques- tion of methods of arriving at valu. ations on which duties on foreign products are to be based. The strong indications which al- ready have been given that President Hoover is not satisfied with the ac- tion of the house on the tariff bill have received additional support in the remark of 8enator Allen, re- publican, Kansas, that he saw “no occasion for a general revision at this time.” It was recalled that the president recommended limited tarift revision for the benefit of agriculture, and that Allen, although the most recent addition to the senate’s roster, was the leading de- fe of the president's viewpoint on ex debentures during the eonclu days of the contest over the conference report recommend- ing elimination of that proposal from the farm legislation.

The members of the corps in Gardner, Mass., where Adjutant Fredrickson' ork in New Britain is well known, have made a request to headquar- ters of the Eastern Division that he be sent there. Headquarters has complied with the request and orders have been issued to the local com- mander to make his next home in Gardner. He probably will leave here the latter part of next week, ,unless he accepts the offer of another position in New Britain and resigns from the army. Although Adjutant Fredrickson could not be reached today, Mra. Fredrickson, who has returned from a brief vacation in Springfield to find herself in what she describes as “The midst of a beehive,” stated that her husband is being advised for his own good not to jeopardize his future by leaving the army. “This where he got his training and where his future lies. If he lea his friends say, all the time he h been in the army will be wasted, she said. 8he added that her hus- band is still so upset over his dis- appointment at being ordered to transfer from New Britain that he is unable to decide.

Miss Doherty will students of the Mexican National University were in complete control today of the main building of the university, with the determination, they said, of remaining there until their demands were met. Police did not molest them. A red flag hoisted by the strikers floated over the bullding while an- other was draped from a second story balcony over the main en- trance. A hundred students main- tained a conatant guard at entrances refusing to let anyone except strik- ers enter. Several unjversity officials seized and held as hostages when the building was captured yesterday later were released. They included Becretary General Daniel Cosio Vil- legas of the university, Director Al- fonso Caso of the National Prepara- tory achool and several professors. The students demand the resigna- tion of Rector Antonio Castro Leal, one of the firmest in opposing their stand against the innovation of her husband not to leave the army. “We will do everything we can to help him,” was the promise made over the wire. In Gardner the Salvation Army is not part of the community chest and annual drives are neceasary to raise the budget. It is considered a harder job which calls for a man of proven ability, Salvation Army offi- cials aver. Adjutant Fredricksoa spent some time there recently help- ing conduct the last drive. He was called there at the time because of his record in New Britain, Members of the local corps have a new grievance. They feel that they have been the recipients of a discourtesy by the three divisional officers who were here for confer- ence Monday.

When th: students 2,000 in number, descend- ed upon the university yesterday afternoon they were seeking Castro Leal, but were unable to find him. ‘The department of public instruc- tion answered the demonstration with a statement that the committee drafting the university autonomy measure, authorized by the extraor- dinary session of congress a week ago, had been working 15 hours a day and it was nearly ready for submission to President Portes Gil. | Much of the disgruntiement of | the students, it was understood, arose from the fact there was not instantaneous promulgation by the president of the decree conferring autonomy on the university. Failure of police to attempt to restore order was believed due to express government command not to moélest the strikers, since drastic measures taken in putting down a strikers’ demonstration more than two weeks ago at the university brought widespread criticism. the Red army of Everyman's Bib! class, who had charge of the pe tions being circulated among the business men, said today that he hal sent out three petitions. One, which had been in the hands of President ‘Walter W. Gould was returned to him with 27 signatures. The other two did not come back. None of the three were offered to the Sai- vation Army officials, SEDAN AND TRUCK OOLLIDE A Parker-Buckey Baking Co. truck driven by Steve Sutkowski of 135 North street was going south on Chapman street at the approxi- mate rate of 20 miles an hour yes- terday afternoon about 4:15 o'clock and was struck by a sedan owned and driven by Gaza G.
