While lie was speaking n committee of fifteen that was said to represent the workers' unemployment Insurance delegation tried to get Into the house of representatives with a big petition, demanding that Speaker Longworth recess the house for twenty minutes so they might appear oti the tloor and state their case. The speaker refused this request and would not receive the committee in his office, so the petition was left with his secretary and the importunate visitors were gently pushed out of the Capitol by n bunch of policemen. The unemployed workers were said to be led by Communists, nnd were out In the Washington police force to prevent a ' Ited Invasion. This aroused the wrath of Senator Blaine, who declared that "the menace exists only in the minds of those who are protecting the very system that may some day create a real menace of this sort." In Minneapolis, Boston. New York, Sacramento and other cities there were Communist deawisst rations In behalf of relief for the unemployed.

The measure carried the final of the board's authorized .'iOO.OO0.000 revolving loan fund. The senators, desiring to avoid blame If the board falls to accomplish results, rejected an amendment offered by Senator Black of Alabama which would have forbidden the use of any of the hundred millions for trading In futures on grain or cotton exchanges. Southern senators were particularly exercised over the use of farm board funds by cotton cooperatives In trading in futures.

Rover the federal power board and then re jected the nomination. It also adopted a resolution ordering Mr. Rover to Institute court proceedings to oust Mr. Smith from the board. He has no choice but to obey these Instructions. However, both President Hoover and Attorney fieneral William Mitchell hold that Mr. Smith's appointment was legal nnd that the former approval of It by the senate must stand, wherefore apparently It is up to Mr. Itover to attempt to prove that his superiors nre wrong in their contention. CANNON of the BISHOP Church South was freed from the charges made against him. the elders deciding they did not have sufficient merit to warrant putting the bishop on trial. But this didn't end the church- man's troubles, for Senator Nye's campaign fund committee, with enlarged powers, called on him to explain his expenditures of funds in the campaign of nnti-Smit- 1928.

There is now before congress a warship authorization bill carrying $74,000,000, which provides for the construction of one cruiser, four submarines nnd one aircraft carrier. Chairman Fred A.

It was understood in the Austrian capital that the Soviet government was planning to ship wheat from Russian Black sea ports up the Danube river to compete with grain from Rumania, a and Hungary in the markets of central Europe. Rumors of political turmoil in Russia that might lead to a revolution caused the price of wheat on the Chicago board of trade to jump 4 cents a bushel to the highest price quoted there since last July.
