WASHINGTON, Nov. 14 intent on the economic situation, congressional leaders today took in President Hoover's plan for a home loan banking system for inclusion in a far-reaching study aimed at hastening prosperity by legislation. The dominance of the economic emergency in the minds of the pre. Ident and congress was further emphasized today both at the White House and at Capitol hill.

The subject was taken by Mr. Hoc, ver a a principal theme of his message to congress. He started writing it today in the quiet of his White- Rouse study. Announcement of the borne- loan banking system' west received enthusiastticallY by some conventional captaina. Some.

There undoubtedly will be some debate on the moratorium, but an overwhelming majority of congress- has assured Mr. Hoover of support, and no doubt is entertained but that it will be approved. Reduction of governmental expenditures was another of the foundation stones in the president's message and on this he placed perhaps the greatest emphasis. With a deficit last year of over 000,000 and another of perhaps greater proportions in sight this year, he made It clear that economy was vital if extended tax revision was to be avoided. The president spent the entire day in his study working on the message, except for a short period about noon, when he returned to his office to confer with Eugene Meyer.

Only first-class risks will be taken and then collateral must be given which will, in effect, give the new finance system the equivalent of a first lien on every piece of property on which money is loaned. Such a first lien would be satisfied in a foreclosure isale by recovering from 25 per cent. to 30 per cent. of the appraised value. Naturally the banks or the institutions which have rediscounted their first mortgages are not going to allow the finance corporation to sell them out just to get 25 or 30 per cent of the money represented by a sound appraisal of the property.

So the local institutions using the rediscount privilege will prob- ably use their own capital and even borrow if they are able on their own credit to prevent any foreclosures 1 through the rediscount corporation.

The text of the verbal declaration made by Foreign Commissar Maxim Litvinoff to Japanese Ambassador Koki Hirota revealed publicly for the first time the fact that such assurances had been given the soviet foreign minister by the Japanese ambassador. "The soviet government considers that these assurances remain in force now and shall not be broken," the foreign minister added. Russia also protested against tinued Japanese allegations of soviet assistance to warring Chinese in Manchuria.

It was "with a sense of extreme regret" that the soviet government was obliged to note that Japanese military circles continued to spread "absolutely unfounded rumors about soviet assistance to this or that Chinese general." the commissar said. Particular exception -was taken to a statement reported to have been Issued by a Japanese representative at Mukden on Tuesday that reinforcements had been moved from Blagoveschinsk in the form of Chinese and Korean communists. After calling the Japanese government's attention "to this unscrupulous antisoviet campaign systematically conducted in certain military circles in Manchuria to complicate relations between Japan and soviet Russia," the note requested renewed assurances from Japan that soviet interests would not be injured by events in Foreign Commissar Litvinolf remind. ed the Japanese ambassador of his previous assurances. "I have the more reason- to remind you of this," he added, "as information Is available that the Japanese command are preparing to cross the ClithestrEastern railway in the region of Tsitslhar.

Declares Lesser Institutions "Seed Beds of Nation's Lea-dersilip." WASHINO'rON, Nov. 14 the graduate of what once was a Small President Hoover tonight' gave to -them their share of praise for helping, te educate the nation. He was' over the radio In an education .4 week program- devoted to small liberal arts colleges, which- he describEd ad the "seed beds" of thena-' tion's leadership Trim the cabinet room 'cif the Reusewhere the thief occupant the Man who was Hoover, land Stanford, '9--he Smaller colIeges: and section must maintain ample cultural opportunities for the youth reasonable distance from their homes and in circlunstinees fitted to the needs of each community' and its people." Because they place an emphasil upon personal contacts between teacher and pupil, Mr. Homer said, the liberal arts colleges are a "vital part of our educational system." On the same program with the president were R. Mann, director of the American Council on Education; Robert L.

Kelly, executive secretary of the Association of American Colleges Council of Church Boards of Education; Dr. A. N. Ward, president of Western Maryland college and chairman of the liberal arts college movement, and John H. Finley, of the New York Times.

Dr. Mann and Mr. Hoover spoke from Washington; the rest from New York. The text of President Hoover's address follows: "I am glad to express appreciation of the service of the liberal arts college, that is the small college. I do this the more freely because of the more than 600 such institutions in our land.

Most of them have little, if any, endowment or state support. In these times of trends toward larger units the difficulties of the unsupported small college multiply, which make their successful operation las hopeful and, in many cases. a desperate struggle. "The important place which these institutionehold in our system of education renders their support of the utmost importance. Whatever be the magnificent services of the larger and highly specialized universities the liberal arts college places an emphasis upon personal contacts of teacher and student which render them a vital part of our educational system.

"A primary purpose of education is a product of high character and noble ideals, which regard moral and spiritual qualities superior to mere material things, without which any purely economic system would collapse. "Throughout our history these colleges have been and are now the seed beds of leadership. They have contributed a large part to the presence in our land of nearly 2,000,000 college-trained men and women. Theirs is a great honor roll of men and women in our nation. The finest traditions of our country are rooted in their aSsociations and their inspiration.

The disadvantage of the small college is obvious. The dramatic element in education does not play a great part In its activities. It must remain content with the character of service it renders to the individual man and woman and to the public weal. In the last analysis the chief service to higher education in our country must rest not alone with the few highly endowed universities, but, in large degree, with the more than 600 smaller colleges for whose future welfare I am now speaking. "It is thrtiugh them that each state and section must maintain ample cultural opportunities for the youth within reasonable distance from their homes and in circumstances fitted to the neklis of each community and its people.

1 "rhat service for the youth is a guat ante of equality of cultural opportunity and a bulwark for the spiritual life ofthe generation in which our children wM have to live, a service which I sin-'t csrely commend."

ACiale Chattel, aboard 'tile crew, stood by until the weather abated, and then transferred the rum boat's $500,000 cargo of liquor to the hold of the Arlyn. Because the Arlyn was in the coastal service, she was not required to stop 'at Quarantine when she reached New York, but went directly to her pier. There, authorities charge, she put the British sailors ashore in violation of the immigration and customs laws, and unloaded the liquor in violation of the prohibition laws. The first information of what had happened came to the treasury department when disgruntled members of the Arlyn crew, after being discharged, wrote a letter to Wishington, claiming each member of the Arlyn crew had received $20 for helping put the rum 'runners and their cargo ashore. When the Arlyn came into Quarantine last Monday, customs guards began an investigation.

Seizure of the freighter was ordered by Collector of the Port Philip Elting. The crew was allowed to bring the Arlyn to dock, so its cargo of sugar from Cuba could be unloaded, and then all thirty-five of them were detained by federal authorities. When the sugar has been unloaded the ship will be searched to ascertain whether any liquor has been brought in on this trip. CANADA AND U.S. REACH ACCORD ON ST.

Canada desired two dams, mainly for purposes of "safety." The estimated cost of the one dam development Is $220,000,000, while that of a two dam development is $280,000,000.
