complaint that the bill to regulate and abolish utility holding companies would divorce natural gas concerns from oil companies and hence deprive the former of their principal source of money for expansion The witnem was Ralph Feagin Houston Tex attorney representing the natural gas industry Ills insistence that oil company control of gas companies WEIS essential due to their close kinship brought from Senator Couzens a protest that rather than tending toward expansion of the industry it hindered expansion He asserted that natural gas companies had refused to into the Michigan territory

notice that there would be no announcement over the week-end of a change in the price of silver paid by this country was giveil today by Secretary Morgenthau He made this statement to newspaper men while the financial world wondered what the reaction of the United States would be to the fast moving silver price race Earlier in the day he conferred with Senator McCarran of Nevada Democrat Mc-Carroll said the treasury secretary did not "evince any determined attitude as to what he intends to do" The Nevadan said he personally recommended at the morning meeting that the domestic price be increased immediately to $129 an ounce from its present level of 7757 cents He 'added the conference attended also by Herman Oliphant general counsel of the treasury went over the alternative steps open to the government which included: 1 Do nothing 2 Move up the domestic price slowly as at first 3 Jump it to $129 at once and end it there McCarran said adoption of the third course would "practically remonetize silver and that's what we want" He also recommended removing the 50 per cent silver profits tax as a step to minimize foreign speculation in silver He added the secretary appeared to be softening in his attitude on this point "Very few American dealers have made anything out of silver but foreign dealers have" he asserted McCarran also discussed complaints from western gold miners that they were gating only around $31 an mince from smelters as compared with the legal price of $35 He indicated "some relief" might be forthcoming To LAW SOCIETY Select One of These

Rivalry over candidates for class offices and positions on next year's student council was hot at the University of Kansas City yesterday the last day for filing nominating petitions for the election May 10 Unexpected opposition by a new independent party Vo-Camp necessitated several last-minute changes in the ticket of the Student-Co-operative group which now holds most of the student offices A split in one of the sororities supporting the Student-Cooperative ticket resulted in the formation of the new party While neither faction has made an issue of fraternities and sororities the bulk of thn support of the Co-operative ticket comes from fraternities while the VoCamp party seeks followers from the ranks of non-fraternity members The new party named for the William Volker Campus is

"The most destructive and regret-able act of the administration has been the attempt to destroy people's confidence in our form of government" the farm leader told delegates to the national Farmers' Holiday convention after blasting six sections of the party platform "The promises of this administration have not only been ignored and broken to agriculture but to all classes of society" he charged In an address sprinkled with epithets Reno attacked the AAA and NRA dubbed the national secretary of agriculture "Lord Corn Wallace' and lauded Senator Huey Long of Louisiana who he said mrefused to be bludgeoned into servile submission and had the nerve to tell them 'to go straight to hell'" Reno promised the Holiday Association "is ready and willing to cooperate with any group of American citizens for the betterment of society which believes advocates or defends representative government We have no sympathy with nor will we be associated in any manner with any group that proposes to substitute a Mussolini a Stalin or a Hitler for our representative form of government" Inserting into his denunciation paragraphs from the national Democratic platform the Holiday president denied each recommendation and in vigorous language challenged fulfillment of the party's promise to bring back "the proud position of domestic happiness" Reno's denunciations preceded a speech late today by

agricultural adjustment act would grant no new powers but would "simply make explicit" the intent of congress in the nation's agricultural administration Speaking in a state whose Junior The independence of women has been advanced materially by the deprewton in the opinion of Mrs Eudora Ramsay Richardson of Richmond Va who today was the principal speaker at two sessions of the Missouri Federation of Business and Professional Women's Clubs at the Hotel Mueblebach A wife and a mother Mrs Richardson still finds time to attend to the duties of national field representative for the National Federation of Business and Professional Women's Clubs and to promote where she goes tne cause of women in business inns CREATIVE AMMON While the depression may have brought hardship to many women and men it proved the spark that fired the ambition of creative women and launched them in business enterprises which in the future will provide amply for their founders Mrs Richardson said today The road to such successes now is open more than ever to women she believes because women have been able to demonstrate their capacity to handle business and also because men hkve not made such a huge success In the face of adverse conditions The retail merchandising field has been the principal field in which women have been harvesting success Mrs Richardson pointed out Women experienced in buying for stores who became temporary victims of the depression became ultimately beneficiaries of the economic blight because of their knowledge of women's needs "The buyers for retail stores were women" Mrs Richardson related "They had learned to anticipate thl needs and preferences of women So they established businesses catering to women when they lost their jobs They are enjoying success where men would fail" A HOME FOR 'EVERY WOMAN Mrs Richardson however doesn't urge abandonment of the home idea She believes every woman should make a home on a 50-50 basis with the man but should not hide in it if she has a flair for business or other useful pursuit in the community The Income she may be able to add to the family fortune even in good times would be useful Mrs Richardson pointed out The standard of intelligence among women has been increasing since 1919 in the opinion of Mrs Richardson with women now showing familiarity with political and economic problems which a score of years ago would have been "Greek" to them Women ultimately will bring about improvement in the social life of the country she believes Besides her two speeches today Mrs Richardson will speak to the women again tomorrow following installation of officers The election of officers will be held at a secsion late today 11A 4100 15th and Vine By DAVID LAWRENCE VASHING1ON April 27--President ovelt is
