Senate Passes On Beer Option
State Legislature Works Rapidly To Complete Huge Program
SACRAMENTO, Calif., Ap-.11 19 —(HE)—Working at a steai1 <ly in ! creasing tempo, the assemlJly and senate waded through scores of J measures today, with the upper ! house approving the beer regula | tion bill and the proposal to extend ' the 60-day tax moratorium to all California cities.
After weeks of wrangling, the beer bill was passed by the upper house without further discussion. Senator Joe Riley, Bishop, cast the only vote against the measure.
As finally amended in the senate, the bill grants “local option” right of regulation to city and county authorities; limits local license fees to $50 for “on sale” licenses where beer is consumed on the premises, and $10 for “off sale” licenses.
Final consideration of the constitutional amendment authorizing the state to enter into a water conservation program was postponed for another day

Cast Will Hold Final Practice For Class Play
“Hay Fever” To Be Given By Seniors Tomorrow Night in Bovard
Production Is Veiled in Mystery as Curtain Time Approaches
Dress i*ehearsal for “Hay Fever” senior class play to be presented in Bovard auditorium tomorrow night at 8 p.m. will be held tonight. The entire cast has entered the breezy spirit of the sophisticated comedy with gratifying zest, according to W. Ray MacDonald, director, who expects a polished performance.
Admission to Noel Coward’s play will be by student body book or by ticket purchased at the cashier’s window in the Student Union for 40 cents. The only thing which is troubling the cast, states Val-jean McCoy, play productions manager, is just where the hay fever part comes into the dramatization of a week-end at the home of the temperamental, but charming, Bliss family.
Did Judith (played by Mary Elizabeth Hendricks) sneeze? Was Jackie Coryaon, the dumb little flapper amusingly portrayed by Olive Lawrence, overcome by essence of sunflower seed? Or did Norman Wright in the role of David Bliss, author and father find that week-end a painfully dis turbing as the malicious affiliction hay fever?
That one guest ls as good as another, is the unanimous agreement of members of the cast. “Be gorry, that's where the mystery element enters,” says Irish maid Clara (Barbara Hansen to you) “And the jolly lads and lassies have to see the play before they can decide.”
William Ulysses Hoppe, erstwhile man-about-drama but for the evening Richard Greatham, suave diplomatic, believes the embrog-lio of love affairs as they become entangled in the week-end between members of the Bliss tribe and visiting friends of the family will be amusing to any experienced week-end guest.

This subject, offering relief from the overworked war debts question, should furnish an interesting debate since Mr, Hearst’s campaign has created wide-spread interest both for and against it.
Worth Bernard and John Raymond are the S. C. affirmative team which will meet Gerald O’-Melveny and Cobum Palmer, Pomona speakers, at the Y.M.C.A. hut at 8 p.m. Roy G. Johnson and Russell A. Nixon will uphold the negative side of the question for Troy at Pomona against Sidney Wall and Jess Wilson. This debate is to be held before the Forensic council there.

House Committee Accepts Plan for Muscle Shoals
“Snow” is the subject of Dr. Bruce R. Baiter’s talk which he will give today at 9:55 a.m. in Bovard auditorium.
Two organ selections, “In Springtime” by Kinder and Cui’s “Orien-talt” will be played by Willard Smith.
WASHINGTON, April 19—(U_R)— President Roosevelt’s far reaching program for development of the Tennessee valley, centering around the Muscle Shoals power plants, was approved formally tonight by the house military affairs committee.
The committee voted 15 to 6 to report the measure. It is planned to bring it before the house for action by' Saturday under a strict rule virtually assuring passage.
The bill, in all major particulars, was reported as drafted by white house advisors. It provides a $50,-000,000 bond issue to finance the development, together with $10,000,-000 immediate appropriation.
The program contemplates government ownership and operation of the vast power resources of Muscle Shoals with sale of elec-
trical energy directly by the gov ernment. In addition, the nitrate plants would be leased, if possible, to a private limited-dividend corporation for production and sale of fertilizer.
A broad declaration of policy is contained in the measure making it possible for the federal government to conduct united development operations in the Tennessee valley. This would include flood control, navigation improvements and reforestation as well as the development of the power resources.
The principal change made by the committee is one permitting leasing of the shoals fertilizer plant. The “Tennessee valley authority” established by the measure to manage the development program is authorized to lease the nitrate plant for a 50-year period.

■■ ■ — i WASHINGTON, April 19—<UP>— The United States abandoned th» gold standard tonight.
Shortly after, President Rooso* velt in a bold, dramaUc coup had withdrawn support of the American dollar abroad. Secretary of the Treasury "Woodin said th» nation had deserted the gold standard.	*
The president’s action today was taken in an effort to raise commodity prices at home and restore languishing trade abroad.
The White House announced this would be done by maintain* ing a tight embargo on export of gold. Actually, it means th# American dollar is to be allowed to seek its natural level in world exchange. Later it would be re-valuated on a basis in natural relation to other currencies.
The president’s daring stroke startled the world. It brought quick approval from congressional leaders favoring inflation, stocks commodity prices rose

The bill will give th© president a powerful weapon for bargaining at his conferences in a few day# with leaders of foreign gorern-ments.
