The Hoover administration has served notice that there is to be no orgy of upward revision. The burden of proof will be on those seeking higher duties and very few schedules will be touched at all. Only the mOse acute cases can expect treatment at this session.

The efforts to limit congress to farm and tariff questions "has begun but may not be of much avail in the senate, where discussion, is unlimited anyhow. If the senate Is estopped from action ay agreement of the leaders it will not stop debate. The administration can, however, block any action jenerally by close cooperation with louse leaders who need. not bring in any rule to consider a measure. Without the house, the senate could do nothing except debate.

And of this is the two. major and may be an abundance especially pass slowly through the committees.

BECKER. (Copyright, 1929, by Altoona. Mirror.) NEW YORK, April one of the quietest sessions tills year, prices fluctuated indifferently on the curb exchange today. Volume fell off sharply and except for a mild wave of selling early in the session, there was nothing to indicate a change in speculative sentiment. A few stocks" stood out for special reasons, which was a fair display of strength in the oils and several utilities.

There was another sharp upward spurt in Arcturus Radio Tube, following last week's buoyancy. It rose to a new high record arid was one of the most active performers. Continental diamond, a comparatively unknown specially, also displayed striking strength at a new peak above 30. Stocks like Goldman Sachs Trading, Zenith Radio, Newton Steel, Newberry, Aviation corporation, and one or two others also broke away from the general hesitancy and were at different times actively advanced, but the gains were modified or entirely cancelled by later profit-taking. York transit featured the oil division, climbing several points at the outset on'; expected favorable developments, the nature of which could not be ascertained.

A better sentiment toward petroleum shares generally had a steadying Influence on their prices. Stocks like Humble, Standard of Indfana, Imperial of Canada old and Vacuum received good support. early reaction was characterized by professional experiments on the short side to uncover vulnerable spots. Some success in this direction was accomplished In the case of general cable warrants, United States and Foreign Power preferred, and Southeastern Power.

Brothers In Litigation. James Hand, a Tyrone man, aged 41, was before the court, pleading guilty to a charge of assault and battery on his brother, Lemuel, aged 61.

He was fined $1 and the costs and given six months in which to make good. The men were living at the home of their aged mother where the fracas is alleged to have occurred. James claimed he had requested his elder brother to do some chores for the mother and the request was Ignored. He chastised his brother for his failure to do a turn and when Lemuel got "lipp" he slapped his mouth. He declared he didn't strike him hard but was so provoked he could not control himself.

"Chewing matches," he said, were in their domicile. John Short was charged by E. Price with larceny. The articles alleged to have been stolen were household furnishings. Short had been occupying a part of Price's house and, when he left, Short is declared to have taken some of his landlord's effects with him.

There has been some "swapping" done and Short had rued the bargain and had taken, some of what had formerly been his own. Price was willing that the prosecution be dropped provided his goods are returned. Judge Patterson so directed and gave Short sixty days in which to pay the costs. 'Husband Makes Promises. When Ralph and Laura Brandt were before the court, the former on a delinquency charge, Judge Patterson asked him if he had any fault to find with his wife and he frankly replied that he had not.

He claimed to have a good mechanical trade and is able to make good money but the wife declares about the time he gets himself settled into a good-making position he simply, without any apparent cause, walks off. 1 Brandt stated they have two children. She placed them in an orphanage and is supporting them out of her meagre wages as a textile worker, but the strain is too great. Sho asked for a reinstatement of a $45 monthly order, made two years ago and which was revoked when she took up with her husband for a short time, only to again soon be deserted. Brandt's whereabouts were unknown for a time and enly when learned he wrote to her from the Lancaster jail, He claimed the wife knew most all the time where he was, Judge Patterson set the alimony at $30 pel- month and directed Brandt to pay the costs.

Court adjourned until Thursday morning at, 9.30 o'clock. TROUT FISHING IS RAIN (Continued from Page 1.) on Eighth avenue this morning and attracted considerable attention. Almost 3,000 Altoona and Blair county anglers were licensed prior to the opening of the trout season in Pennsylvania, the steady rain preventing many anglers from spending the opening day along their favorite streams. The rain will quite likely spoil the sport for several days longer as practically all the streams are high with the waters muddy. Anglers look for no ideal weather "conditions until later in the week.

Practically all the trout streams In this section are well stocked with trout, the Blair association placing many good-sized fish, during the past year.

WEEKLY MEETING HELD BY ALTOONA LIONS CLUB The weekly meeting of the Altoona Lions club was held in the Logan room of the Penn-Alto hotel, the attendance being exceptionally good considering the weather conditions. There was a brief business session in which preliminary reports were made on the sale of tickets for the recent benefit show sponsored by the club on behalf of the work among the blind in Blair county.

Michael's parochial schools, Hollidaysburg, was operated upon on Saturday evening at the Mercy hospital for appendicitis. Friday evening, the lad was playing with some boys when he was seized with severe pains which a physician diagnosed as appendicitis and the operation followed in EXTRA SESSION OF CONGRESS OPENS (Continued from Page will be of short duration. Four senators received the oath, Allan of Kansas, Shlpstead of Minnesota, Cutting of New Mexico, and LaFollette Of Wisconsin. Resolutions then were adopted notifying the president and the house the senate is in session and adjournment will be taken until tomorrow when the president's message of legislative advice will be read to a joint session of both houses. The house of this new Seventy-first congress has never met before, so sixty new representatives were administered the oath along with the holdovers.

In order to prevent consideration of general business outside of the president's program, only four of the eighteen committees of the house organized, the ways and means committee for tariff, agriculture for farm relief, rules so the leaders can function with authority, and accounts so members will get their mileage and salaries. Resolutions similar to those in the senate were then adopted and adjournment taken until tomorrow. Situation Well In Hand. Houso leaders appear to have the situation well in hand for the president. The new lineup shows 267 Republicans, 163 Democrats, one Farmer- Laborlte and four vacancies, the strongest Republican majority since the Harding landslide congress of 1921.

The list includes five women, the largest feminine bloc the house has had, and one colored man. Of the women, three are new, and all have the given name Ruth. They are Mrs. Ruth Hanna McCormick of Illinois, daughter of the famous politician, Mark Hanna; Mrs. Ruth Bryan Owen, daughter of William Jennings Bryan, who was Hanna's arch enemy, and Mrs.

Ruth Pratt of New York. The colored man Is Representative Oscar Deprlest of Illinois whose presence already has caused some southern members to raise social questions. He is the first colored man in congress in twenty-eight years and the twenty- fourth of his race to occupy a seat at the capltol. A 1930 census authorization coupled with reapportionment of the house to be based upon the results of that census is coming. The tariff bill will be ready for consideration in about ten days.

It is being prepared by the ways and means committee. The senate, however, is another story. Senator Robinson of Arkansas, the Democratic floor leader, has declined publicly to go along with the curtailment program. He wants action on several other bills including one dealing with the relations of the federal reserve board and Wall Street speculation. Here there are no binding rules.

All committees are already organized and any senator can bring up any bill by majority vote. The Republican leaders have made personal appeals and to no avail. Now they are scratching their heads and wondering whether domination of the session will run away from them. Their lineup shows fifty-six Republicans, thirty-nine Democrats and one Farmer-Laborlte, the strongest majority since '1921. Scores of Proposals.

Scores of proposals for general legislation are to be offered. Senator Glass of Virginia, is drawing a Wall Street bill; Tydings of Maryland is planning an amendment to modify the Jones prohibition act; King of Utah has several bills and resolutions relating to Wall Street, and a Republican senator is drawing a resolution designed to prevent diplomats from serving liquor. A railroad consolidation bill is to be offered by Senator Fess of Ohio and an effort may be made to stop Mr. Hoover from carrying out his plan preventing further lease of government oil lands. The session may have a vital bear- Ing upon the course of the entire administration of President Hoover.

The tone of the relationship between the capltol and the White House often is established in the first session of a new administration and the achievements of any presidency are influenced to a marked extent by the degree of accommodation and cooperation maintained between the legislative and executive branches. His recognition of this situation has prompted President Hoover to prepare for the present session with utmost thoroughness. Calm and Confident. Determined he will not invade the legislative field in the name of presidential leadership, he launches his first session with an attitude of confidence and calm. He has no illusions party politics are to be forgotten for the sake of legislative achievement and a quick adjournment, nor does he anticipate the political brickbats hurled from the legislative halls toward the president since the days of George Washington are to be smothered this yeai in primrose lilies.

But -he does expect, according to party leaders In both houses, that congress -will demonstrate promptly an adequate facility for stirring its own political porridge. If present plans carry Mr. Hoover will be preparing for the opening game of the Washington Nationals in. Griffith stadium at the precise moment his message to congress is being read on Capltol Hill. Although this situation was not pre meditated, it seems.

well to characterize the Hoover conception of relations between congress and the presidency. It epitomizes perfectly the formula rigidly adhered to by him during the writing of the farm bill. Minority Unusually Small. Democrats have not been in the saddle in congress since the world war days but their slender minority only once before has been so small. The controlling votes in both the house and the senate will give the administration a free hand in working out the two major domestic problems from the standpoint outlined by President Hoover and his Republican congressional candidates in the election last November.

They spell the death of the old equalization fee system of promoting farm relief and the substitution of an efficiently organized and government sponsored plan of cooperative marketing. They mean too that tariff rates will be adjusted upward in strict accord with historic Republican principles. The line-up in the senate shows fifty-five Republicans, thirty-nine Democrats, one Farmer Laborite and one vacancy caused by the failure of Senator-elect Vare of Pennsylvania to obtain bis seat. Teu New Ten new senators arm to begin their legislative careers, nisvi of whom are Republicans and ons" 1 a Democrat. Nearly all of them were sworn at the perfunctory special session of the senate held, after Mr.

Hoover's inauguration Much 5 to confirm his cabinet nominations. The List of includes the Frederick C. PROTEST MADI GERMAN DELEGJ Dt. Hjaima?
