r»t a public lecture Saturday
Dr. Pfiffner airs his views in a feature article in the current —tissue of Southern California Law Review, published five times yearly by the School of Law. Tribunals, in recent interpretations of charter provisions, have in many cases absolutely reversed traditional ideas relative to franchise provisions, according to the writer.
In the article, which is titled The Law of the Council-Manager Charter, Dr. Pfiffner says: "Experimentation with the roun-cll-manager form of municipal government is rapidly approaching the quarter-century mark. On January 1, 1931, 425 cities and towns, 14 of which are in Canada aad three in Ireland, were operating under the council-manager plan. Theae range in size from rural villages to such metropolitan centers as Cleveland, Cincinnati, and Kansas City. California is represented with 34 municipalities, including Oakland. Long Beach, San Diego (operative May 1, 1932), Pasadena, Sacramento, Glendale, Berkeley, Stockton, San Jose, Alameda, and Alhambra. The scheme apparently has graduated from the experimental status.” Other feature articles in the issue are "The Origin of the Labor Injunction,” by Clarence E. Bon-nett, ptofassor of economics, Tulane university, Louisiana, and author of Employers Associations } in the United States; "Redeemable Corporate Securities,” by Paul W. Jones, professor of law, University of Southern California; and a supplement, of "The Restatement of the Law of Contracts with California Annotations."
Prof. Robert Kingsley of the S. C. School of Law is editor of the
Review.

WASHINGTON, Jan 13.—(UP) —The senate today passed the $125,000,000 farm loan bill. t.he second measure of President’s Hoover’s economic program, after ear-marking $25,000,000 of the amount: to a "moratorium” farm Interest payments.
The house meantime concluded general debate on the keynote of Mr. Hoover’s program, the two-bllllon-dollar reconstruction finance corporation measure passed Monday night. Rep. Louis T. Mc-Fadden, Repn., Pa., delivered vitriolic attack on the bill, declaring it was aimed to "help a gang of financial looters to cover up thetr tracks," and suggesting that the "looters” would use the money "to dispose of evidence which If brought into fhe light of day,’ would send many of them to Federal penitentiaries.
Congressional circles heard with Interest a report that President Hoover has virtually completed his organization of the great fiscal and loan agency which the bill will create when passed and signed, probably late this week or early next week.
The senate wrote into the farm bill by a vote of 49 to 29, the so-called "advisory moratorium’’ amendment, which »is opposed by the treasury and the Hoover administration. The house passed a similar provision, so thia is certain to remain in the completed bill. As passed by the senate, the bill sets aside $25,000,000 to be used at the discret%ji of the farm loan banks in carrying interest charges on mortgages held by the bank, w'hlch farmers cannot meet.
4 SHIFTS IN NEW CABINET SAYS LAVAL
French Premier Announces Changes After Conference With Doumer.
PARIS. Jan 13.—(l'P)- Premier Pierre I^aval announced tonight that he had formed a new cabinet.
Formation of the cabinet was announced after a conference with President Paul Doumer, in which the president asked Ijavsl to form the new government.
The new cabinet differs from the Laval cabinet which Just resigned only in the assumption of the foreign minister's portfolio hy Laval, replacing Aristide Briand; assignment of Andre Tardieu. former premier and recently minister of agriculture, to succeed the late Andre Magtnot as war minister; Pierre Cnthala becoming minister of Interior and Achllle Fould minister of agriculture.
STERNER POLICY
Laval, in replacing Briand. who had been foreign minister for six years and hecs.me an outstanding figure ln international affairs, ls certain to adopt a Bterner policy In dealing with the German reparations question.
The most extreme conciliatory attitude of Brtand which has been criticized by the French Nationalists, will be shelved for a policy such as Laval indicated In his recent speech denouncing alleged attempts by Germany lo evade reparations payments. Laval almost accused Germany of wilfully becoming bankrupt to escape payments.
BRIAND TO CREST
The flrst task of the new government will be to draft Instructions for the delegation to the Lausanne conference. A vote of confidence in the cabinet will be sought in the chamber Thursday or Friday and Laval probably will retain his former majority of about 69.
Briand, who has been 111, has been urged by his doctors to take a rest of from three to six months and he probably will go to his farm ln Cocherel.
