THE CENTRE
OMPROMISE on
the drought relief
program was reached
by the Republican
and Democratic lead-
ers in congress after
days of argument, re-
crimination and
: threat, The settle-
ment of the dispute
was virtually a’victo-
ry for President Hoo-
ver over those who
Rep. Tilson had insisted that the
government should adopt what would
be really the dole principle in reliev-
Ing the distress of the people. Unless
radical Republicans carry on a fili-
buster against regular appropriation
bills, the danger of a special session
seems to be passed,
Under the compromise there will be
& broadening of the credit mac hinery
#et up for the drought area. The sum
of $20,000,000 will be added to the
$45,000,000 already appropriated. The
money will not be available for char-
ity, but will be loaned to individuals
or to agricultural credit
and secured by liens on crops or oth-
or security,
The loans may be used for “agri
cultural rehabilitation” in addition to
seed, feed and fertilizer, to which the
money provided by the original act
was limited. Under the guise of “agri-
eultural rehabilitation” some of the
money may be used by farmers for
food and clothing, but it will not be
intended as charity or as a dole.
The plan was Incorporated in an
amendment to the senate's amend-
ment to the Interior department appro-
priation bill appropriating $25,000,000
for the purchase of food and medical
supplies and for other forms of relief.
The $25,000,000 amendment was re
Jected by the house, after which the
bill was sent to conference. The pro-
cedure will be for the conferees of the
senate and house to offer the com-
promise as a substitute for the senate
amendment, Technically the con-
ferees will report a disagreement.
Representative L. C. Cramton of Mich.
igan then will move In the house that
the substitute amendment be accepted,
This will be followed by its acceptance
by the senate,
The final touches on the agreement
Were given at conferences particl-
pated in by Senator James E. Watson
of Indiana, majority leader of the
senate; Senator Charles IL. McNary of
Oregon, assistant majority leader;
Speaker Longworth, and Representa-
tive John Q. Tilson of Connecticut.
Another compromise, also acceptable
to the administration, was in prospect
in the matter of soldiers’ bonus legis-
lation. The house ways and means
committee planned to report a bill in-
ereasing borrowing privileges for
World war veterans holding bonus cer.
tificates, from 22 per cent. as at pres
ent, to 50 per cent of their face value,
This was the suggestion of Owen D,
Young and apparently was approved
by Secretary of the Treasury Mellon.
It was estimated that the cost to the
government would be upwards of
$500,000,000,

Martial law was proclaimed for the
ravaged district, and the Immediate
evacuation of Napler was ordered by
the authorities because of the danger
of an epidemic. The city's water and
drainage systems were entirely de
stroyed. Several British cruisers
reached Napler harbor and Commodore
Blake took charge of relief measures.
Other vessels carried many refugees
to Auckland. Property damage In the
Napler area alone was estimated at
$10,000,000.
HOOVER backed up
General William D.
the latter's controversy
with Senator Thomas ID. Schall of
Minnesota over the appointment of
Ernest Michel to a Minnesota judge-
ship. In a communication to Schall
the President called attention to Mr.
Mitchell's objections to the selection
of Michel for the judicial post, and
stated that in view of the attorney
general's report he would not send his
name to the senate.
In his letter the President suggest-
ed Senator Schall submit eight or ten
names of men he thought would make
fit appointees, and added, “From such
a list I shall hope to find some one
with fitness for that position.”
