There was a scramble of pigs when the rack was crashed off, with squeals a-plenty, Two were killed and a number got away during the spill could not be rounded up.

INFLATION OF CURRENCY IS MAJOR ISSUE Democratic Leaders Hint They Will Work on Own Initiative WASHINGTON, Sept. -Democratic senate leaders today warned President Roosevelt that if the administration falls to inflate the currency, congress will act on Its own initiative as soon as it meets. Pressure upon the president in behalf of inflation was intensified by failure of farm commodity prices to hold their mid-summer gains, and by the decided rise in prices to consumers. Senator Fletcher (D) of Florida, chairman of the senate banking and currency committee, urged Mr. Roosevelt to use the inflationary powers granted by congress.

The stringency of bank credit and the shrinkage in currency outstanding were cited by the senator as reasons why the administration should act. Fletcher's plea was reinforced by Senator Harrison (D) of Mississippi, chairman of the senate finance committee; Senator Thomas (D) of Oklahoma, author of the inflation rider to the farm bill: and other powerful figures in Democratic ranks. Increasing talk of a special session in November to deal with revenue and other problems thrust forward by repeal of the eighteenth amendment, made the warning of the senate leaders doubly impressive. "Unless the administration acts in the meantime, congress unquestionably will deal with this problem in decisive fashion as soon as it meets," Thomas declared. "A reasonable and sound inflationary program has been deferred too long already.

Farmers are becoming completely discouraged. Small business men, unable to obtain money or credit, are facing ruin. The amount money in circulation has declined by a huge total since March 4. Credit grows more stringent at a time when industry must borrow to meet current operations." In senate circles, belief was expressed that the administration could not defer a showdown on inflation much longer. Frenzied government efforts to loosen bank credit were cited as proof that the monetary situation has become acute.

I MARYLAND SNOWS DRY ISSUE UNDER hind some bushes, trying to get into a position where I could get the license number of their car parked in a nearby woods. He took a shot at me and I dropped behind some of the undergrowth. The bandit covered the rest of the boys.

Mr. Parker jumped on him, The bandit fell and the gun dropped from, his hand, Before anyone could reach it, the bandit picked it up and fired. Parker dropped. He was shot through the left eye, the bullet imbedding itself in the brain.

The bandit then turned and ran toward the woods where his companion waited in the car.

I returned to the tee to administer first aid to Parker but he died an hour later. 30,000 CUBANS STAGE STRIKE HAVANA, Sept. 13.

(INS). Strike of 30,000 workers throughout Cuba are unconfirmable, vague reports soldier disorders in Matanzas province disturbed the serenity of the republic today as President Ramon Grau San Martin placed government bureaus on an orderly working basis. Huge crowds were barred from the presidential palace where 8.11- thorities admitted only persons with justiflable business. The reports from Matanzas varled. One stated that officers had taken the field against the government, but failed to say the size of their force.

Another report said a company of soldiers had rebelled and had disarmed another company, Army headquarters denied both reports, stating all was serene in Matanzas, The problem of the ousted officers in the National Hotel appeared to be settling itself as the army filled the vacancies from a list of sergeants who passed examinations for commissions in the Cuban West Point, but failed of promotion previously because there were no vacancies. Eighteen were named to captaincies and lieutenancies over- night. The army is treating the ousted officers as if they had resigned and is keeping only. the slightest surveillance over the hotel, chiefly to prevent Communist bomb throwers from wrecking it in an effort to force American Intervention.
