A large number of Hindus were ar- rested. Neighboring villages were said to have taken up the communal con- | flict, which, since it began Thursday of last week, has taken 14 lives at Dacca and caused injuries to 40 others. Thursday's renewed disturb- ances seemed to center on the Rair | Bazaar, western suburb of the city. At Lillooah, also in the Calcutta area, police opened fire upon a mob of 4,000 rioters and four persons were wounded in the disturbance which grew out of introduction of a new tion in behalf of their cause.

Méyer, then a young- rater in the racing. game, was the triumphant driver in 1928. Not since 1911 have so many drivers started the race and each entry will carry two men—e. mechenic. having been added this year after seven years of one man competition. As few pilots can withstand the drive, it is likely that mumerous relief drivers will be behind the wheels before the 500 miles are finished. Each year there are favorites and the choice today rests among De Paolo, and Meyer, both for- mer winners, and Billy Arnold, a 23- year-old Chicagoan. Arnold started from the pole position because of his! achievement in setting the fastest; pace in the qualifying trials, when he averaged 113.236 miles per hour. LOBBYISTS BRANDED ‘SIMPLE PARASITES’ Chairman of Investigating Com- | mittee Says They Prey | on Honest Folk Washington, May 30.—(?)}—An as- sertion that most Washington lobby- ists are “simple parasites preying up- on the public” was made today by Chairman Caraway of the senate lobby committee in a review of the accomplishments of the committee's seventh-months investigation. As the life of the committee neared an end, Caraway told newspapermen the vast majority of the lobbyists are simply taking advantage of the “cu- | pidity or desires of individuals and Groups away from Washington.” “They serve no useful purpose,” he asserted, adding that if the public has followed the investigation it will refrain from supporting “these utter- ly disreputable and selfish interests.” Caraway explained, however, there were groups which were “honestly seeking to bring about helpful legis- lation or executive action,” and he did not intend to reflect upon them. “All agree.” he said, “that evéry citizen has the right to present his views on any public matter to any branch of the government. To do so is not only a constitutional right but is a right that should be exercised. “The investigation has given a fair- ly accurate picture of the leading groups who have infested Washing- tion and executive action for a num- ber of years. | “In most cases it pretty clearly ap- | peared the chief concern of the lob- | byists was to find credulous people and induce them to contribute the funds which were alleged to be ac- cumulated for the purpose of accom- plishing ends they professed to seek. “But in very many instances the contributions found their way into; the pockets of the professional lobby- | ists.” Shafer’s Action Wins Approval of Bankers Fargo, N. D., May 30.—(?)—Gover-| nor George Shafer’s action in ap- pointing a commission to thoroughly | investigate the present banking, building and loan, and investment! company laws was “heartily ap- proved” in resolutions passed by the) third district group of the North Da-/| ment. Believing their cause is best served by time, there are some indi- cations the opponents will seek to defer consideration of the treaty until the December session. However, President Hoover and ad- vocates of the pact are confident of speedy ratification. A rough road still lies ahead for the long pending tariff measure. The compromise finally agreed upon by senate and house conferees not only |faces new points of order which may force additional conferences, but its advocates agrce that the votes: for passage in the senate are little more than a majority. Senators Watson of Indiana, and McNary, of Oregon, the senate Re- publican leaders, today agreed that adjournment by June 20 is in pros- pect. It was Senator Watson who in- formed the senate yesterday he “im- agined President Hoover will sign the tariff bill”.and on the basis of that declaration, the capital is assuming that the president will affix his sig- nature if it ever passes. Once the tariff is out of the way, the senate will tackle the $120,000,000 rivers and harbors legislation which already has the approval of the house.
