fapilot Building. Albany. Jan 20 Gov. Herbert H. Lehman today called upon the Reconstruction Finance Corporation to allot New York State $43,000,000 of the $300,000,000 Federal unemployment relief fund, $34,600,000 of iB for u.e between Feb.

$4,600,000 June 1. and $4 600.000 July 1. In his letter to the Reconstruction Finance Corporation Gov. Lehman rmphiiMzed that the application is not tor a lo.in. that be-ins forbidden bv the State Constitution except by mandate of ths people.

The Governor wants the Federal Government to reimburse itself through money ordinarily given tha State toward construction of highways and rural post roads. That apportionment has averaged mora than $5,000,000 a year, but would be lower this year. "New York State, through taxes, will pay about half the $300,000,000 set aside for Federal aid," Gov, Lehman explained. "Thirty-eight States already hava drawn upon the fund. It is no mora than proper that we should gee some of it.

We must get the money somewhere." State Will Continue Relief Work In his letter the Governor insisted the Rev.

Seidel Rovner. who composed much of the Jewish liturgical music now used in American synagogues, is destitute in his home at 827 Willoughby Ave. Because he owns the home, the mortgage on which soon is to be foreclosed, the 77-year-old rabbi is ineligible for public relief. In 1923, when his golden wedding anniversary was celebrated in the old Hippodrome, so many tried to enter that the police had to be summoned to drive the overflow crowd away. Sharing his destitutions are his wife and their son and daughter, who are out of work.

Among Rabbi Rovner's works Is the "Golden Song," which for more than 50 years has been sung in synagogues throughout the world. In addition to being received by Mayor Walker.

The Democrats Intend to press for enactment at this session of Congress of a bill which would give the incoming President the absolute right to deal with appropriations as he saw fit. He could eliminate specific items and cut down others. War Veteran Slash One of the principal objects of this would be to enable Mr. Roosevelt to slash allowances for war veterans as he saw fit. This would remove the inflammable issue of veterans' cuts from the super-political atmosphere of Congress and give the President the untram-meled right to cut the existing al lowances right and left.

Whether such drastic abdication of what Congress has hitherto considered its own exclusive power can be enacted remains to be seen. The Democratic plan, Mr. Roosevelt was informed, is to launch the bill in the Senate and see what happens. If it succeeds there, it will be put to the more difficult test of the House. Washington, Jan.

Rival Film Unions Must Settle Row In an Equity Court Justiee May Denies In-junction lo One Refuses lo Drop Complaint The legal aspect of the battle between Local 306 of the Moving Picture Machine Operators Union, from which Sam Kaplan was deposed as Empire State Motion Picture Op- erators Union for supremacy in New York remained at a standstill today.

Justice May in Supreme Court denied the petition of 306 for a preliminary injunction against the rival union and the Empire State's plea for a dismissal of the other's complaint. The injunction suit was launched when Kaplan was head of 306. He alleged the Empire State to be "a sinister enemy of trade unions," having for its main object the annihilation of 306 and the cutting down of wages of projection machine operators. Kaplan said 306 had fov jit to improve the lot of the operators. James Addesso.

WIFE CHARGES CRUELTY Reno, Jan. 20 Anna White Fra-lick filed suit for divorce here today against William R. Fralick of Queens Village whom she married in Brooklyn on Jan. 21, 1930. Mrs.

The search for Young, an intensive one centering in New England towns such as Newburyport, nas failed to disclose any trace of him, Mrs. Schmidt states. use of the singular is considered to rclc- to the British Ambassador The communique then pro-csed- to express the Joint opinion of Messrs.

Hoover and Roosevelt thai world economic problems should be discussed at the same time, and that therefore "representatives should also be sent" for this purpose. Fiction Preserved Thus the fiction is preserved, doubtless out of consideration for Mr. Roosevelt's sensibilities, that the debt will be discussed through regular diplomatic channels, while special representatives of Great Britain will at the same time be discussing world economic problems. President Hoover has insisted that the world economic conference is of supreme importance, and that no approach to that conference Is passible until the debt question is liquidated. The lormuia aciopiea this afternoon shows that Mr.

Roosevelt agreed with this viewpoint. The debt liquidation is limited, in the present instance, to Great Britain, but Great Britain is conceded on all sides to be the heart and center not alone of the debt, but of the general world economic problem, if for no other reason than being off the gold standard, while France and the United States, possessors of most of the world's gold, remain on the gold standard. The British debt problem is regarded as the crux of the whole series of problems which confront the incoming administration. Great Britain, when remitting the debt installment on Dec. 15 last, served notice that future annuities could not be paid on this scale.

Meanwhile, the world economic conference, scheduled for next Spring, remains to De iacea. mc date of June 15. when the next debt remissions are due, is not far distant, and on that date British default is almost certain to occur, iinie enmp oppnmmodation or ar rangement has been made in the meantime. Part of Wider Sphere The British Government has indicated to the United States its opinion that the gold standard is a form of international exchange, and that no such international exchange can be resumed, for the particular benefit of the United States and France, if these two nations continue their present nationalistic policies. This means, as respects the United States, the present ultra-nationalistic attitude of Congress toward debt revision.

Messrs. Hoover and Stimson. while not minimizing the crucial importance of debt revision as a contribution to world economic recuperation, view the problem now as pan oi an even wmci This sphere embraces the Far East. Recent developments in that region are disquieting. The European nations, It is true, have given their formal, If not enthusiastic, consent to the Hoover doctrine of nonrecog-nition of Manchukuo, but It is felt there can be- no real international viewpoint toward the Far East while Europe remains alienated from the United States on account of the war debts.

Hence the menacing developments In the Far East were presented to Mr. Roosevelt as one of the princi-rviii-oasnns for DromDt liauidation of our Government's political and eco nomic reiationsnip io me guvci laments of Europe. Without a start being made toward settlement of the war debt problem, no progress can be cade toward international co-operation In the Far East, which the present administration considers of paramount Importancea viewpoint which, It Is understood, had made a deep Impression upon the President-elect. Not Encouraging Th. that greeted Mr.

Roose velt on his arrival here last night was not encouraging as far as the Congressional attitude on the debt question is concerned. Democratic Congressional leaders who saw Mr. Roosevelt last night and this morning informed him that there was nhmpi nf eettine debt revision through Congress. This referred to the next Congress as well as the present one. Despite this reputed Congressional aversion toward reducing the debts, it is admitted tint the prospect might change if Mr.

Roosevelt, armed with a specific plan and fortified with arguments of American self-interest, went before the 73d Congress, in which the Democrats will have huge majorities, and put the Issue in plain terms. The President-elect was further Inform.J that no general legislation can be expected during the remainder of 'the present session, without one or two notable executions. Drastic legislation to deal with bankruptcies and to afford a moratorium, upon application to a Federal district Judge, to all classes of debtors, will be pressed for enaet-itifn' Would Cive More Power The Senate, in the first instance, will be asked to enact a bill conferring unprecedented discretion on the President to withhold or to cut all appropriations.

The blow landed fair on the robber's jaw and staggered him. Craven seized the bag and started back down Congress looking back over his shoulder to be prepared if the robber should try to attack him. But the well-placed blow had taken all of the fight out of the man.

Doubts Glass Hill Will Bring About Desired Results Gmrr V. MrLanlilin Measure Stale Bankers Before Meeting Doubt that passage of the Glass Bill with its extension of branch banking privileges will bring about the much desired solvency was ex presed today in a speech prepared by George V. McLaughlin, president of the Brooklyn Trust Company and read before the mid-Winter meeting of the New York State Bankers Association at the Federal Reserve Bank this afternoon. Mr. McLaughlin's speech was read by Charles B.

Iloyce, assistant secretary of the Brooklyn Trust. Mr. McLaughlin being contincd to his home through illness. "Some observers seem to believe that the Glass bill will bring about a solution of one of our greatest banking problems solvency," Mr. McLaughlin's speech staled.

"Such hopes are apparently predicated on the expectation that branch banking systems will automatically expand once the legal ob stacles arc removed. There is room for doubt on this point. Conservative banks arc not likely to open or acquire additional branches unless they see probabilities of profit in doing so. and there probabilities at present do not appear particularly bright unless we reach a solution of the question of banking costs and interest rates." The subject of Mr. McLaughlin's speech was "The High Cost of Banking and Interest Rates." He expressed the belief that the way has been paved for a reduction In the rates of interest paid by commercial banks in New York State on time and thrift deposits.

"The prime need of capital under present conditions is protection, not yield," Mr. McLaughlin observed. "The vast rise in postal savings deposits In the pa.st two years supports this conclusion. It hHS been demonstrated that the majority of bank depositors will object to a reduction in interest rales." He went into considerable technical detail concerning bank operating costs. He jointed out that it costs the Brooklyn Trust Company 3' 2 cents to handle a check at the bank's office, exclusive of overhead.

He urged stricter supervision of free servicing of accounts. Run Down by Taxi, Dies in Hospital William Nelson, 38, of 164 W. 96lh Manhattan, was fatally injured shortly after midnight last when run down by a taxicab at Amsterdam Ave. and 96th Manhattan. He died in Reconstruction Hospital.

Of course there should be no shirking of Stata and local responsibilities in the gigantic task of providing relief funds for the unemployed. "I want it clearly understood therefore that this application, it granted, Is not to be a substitute for the continued appropriations to relief from the State and its various subdivisions." Still Leaves $15,000,000 Gap Governor Lehman revealed today that pn' relief in New York Stats this year will cost at least of public funds, only of which can be raised bv the State and the localities. The allotment asked of the Federal government, if granted, will still leavn a $15,000,000 gap to be filled in soma manner yet to be determined.

The Governor pointed out that the State deficit makes it impossible to appropriate additional relief funds at this time beyond the already provided by the State for that purixjse.
