| |) CANDDATE FOR POST’ -—_TERTBY LONGHORTH HAD MODEST ORIGIN Known as Great Friend of Pres- ident, He Is Conservative and ‘Regular’ IS ADMINISTRATION CHOICE] Simplicity in Life Still Charac- teristic of Man Who Had Varied Jobs By RODNEY DUTCHER Washington, April 14.—(NEA)— John Quillin Tilson found a quarter on the sidewalk one morning about 40 years ago and he regards that as the turning point in a life which has led him along the path of politics and power until he is now the man most likely to be speaker of the house of representatives. The Republican floor leader was then a student at Yale, trying to work his way through. He had no job on which to keep going and not even money for breakfast. So he was hun- gry, discouraged and about ready to give up. But he found that quarter and bought himself a breakfast, after which he felt able to cope with the problems of life, and did. Today Tilson is out in front in the contest to succeed the late Speaker Nicholas Longworth, but he is far from assured of that exalted position. Administration's Choice Nevertheless, Tilson will be the ad- ministration choice and will be sup- ported by a majority of Republican congressmen. And the insurgents are likely to vote for him in exchange for liberalization of the house rules and better committee assignments, as they have after bitter contests in the ast. i Tilson is one of President Hoover's most loyal and closest friends, dis- tinctly conservative, invariably regu- lar and thus well qualified to repre- 4 sent the administration in the speaker's chair. He is technically qualified because he is one of the most able parliamentarians in con- gress. ‘Whoever the next speaker may be, § he will not equal Longworth in per- sonal popularity, and so Tilson will not have as strong personal support for the job. As majority leader, how- ever, he has been in a position to make many friends and few enemies; he was always aympathetic to well- behaved Republican congressmen who sought favors and he always kept his word. He is much more popular, for instance, than Chairman Bert Snell of the rules committee, who may be ® candidate for Speaker. Born in @ log house—not a cabin—/ on a farm in the mountains of east Tennessee, Tilson broke away from home at 20 years of age, earned his education at university and law school and held his first major polit- ical post as speaker in the Connecti- cut legislature. He became 65 years oid this month | and has always worked pretty hard. But he has a strong, wiry frame and | bulks more than six feet tall. He stands straight and walks with a mil- itary stride. His moustache is closely cropped, his hair beginning to gray, and his eyebrows bushy. The pockets of his trousers are tailored in front instead of on the sides. He likes to stand with both hands in them or, if speaking, with one hand in and the other holding out a paper. His other favorite ora- torical gesture is to throw both arms Into the air as if he were about to turn a back-handspring. He isn't much of an orator. His voice al- though good for radio purposes is high-pitched and when he becomes excited it is likely to go badly off key. He has a terrific temper when aroused. Three Children * Mrs. Marguerite Tilson, his wife, apparently untempted by capital so- cial life, remains most of the time in Connecticut with the three children —Don, who is now at Yale; Peggy, at Smith college, and Katharine, who recently obtained an amateur radio license. One of Tilson’s favorite habits in Washington is to have breakfast with Mrs. Florence P. Kahn, congresswom- an from California, at the house res- taurant in the capitol. Both live at the May:lower hotel and they usually journey to the capitol in Mrs.*Kahn’s car or a cab. The friendship dates back many years to the time when Tilson and Mrs. Kahn’s husband were fellow enthusiasts on the house mil- itary affairs committee. Tilson is also very friendly with congressman Sol Bloom of New York and is devoted to his brother, William J. Tilson, although he has denied that he got the latter the job of customs Judge in New York. Close to Hoover His friendship with President Hoover is most significant, however. He has managed the Eastern Speak- ers’ Bureau for the Republicans in the last two presidential campeigns and was one of the Hoover pre-con- vention leaders. Hoover is said to have relied.upon him as the real east~ STICKERS ‘Two Bits’ Found on Si John Quillin Tilson ... has a splendid military bearing . . maintained by regular exercise . . .

When Tilson was laid up with a cold in his hotel, | Hoover had him moved into the | white house for recuperation. In the | last congress he depended more on Tilson than on Longworth. Tilson | was Hoover's spokesman in the| drought relief fight and stood firmly with Hoover while Longworth consent- ed to extend bonus loans for veterans. In summer Tilson goes off for fish- ing and other recreation with his family to their camp in New Hamp- shire, where he stays remote from telephones and railroads. Has Simple Tastes His tastes in life are modest and he is not anywhere near as socially active as Longworth was. Instead of being born with a silver spoon, as was the late speaker, he began life on @ rugged, hilly farm from which he had to walk three miles daily to school. Itinerant preachers, political candidates and other travelers often stopped at the Tilson house and in- terested him in the outside world. He heard about Yale from Alf Taylor, late governor of Tennessee. He werked his way north and the most important job that helped him through Yale was a position in a newspaper's circulation department, After he had entered a law firm in New Haven, Yale gave him the man- | agement of its dining hall. He be- | came very successful at law. Military Experience He was in the Connecticut National Guard and it became evident in 1898 that his outfit would not be called for service, so he joined a Tennessee unit as second lieutenant of infantry. Now they call him “the coloncl” because he stayed in the national guard end commanded the Second Tennessee Infantry at the Mexican border in 1916. He was elected to the Connecticut Assembly in 1904 and became speaker in his second term. He has always been a close student of parliamentary procedure, serving frequently and ably as presiding officer in the house. Last fall he lectured at Yale on par- Mamentary law. Despite opposition from J. Henry Rorabeck’s machine, he has been in congress since 1909 except for the first two years of Wilson's adminis- tration. The machine licked him a couple of years ago, however, when he sought the senatorial nomination. Army ordnance has been Tilson’s | main legislative hobby. There are important firearms companies in his district. He went abroad after the war to study ordnance probldms and his wartime speeches on the subject were given the unusual distinction of |and sophisticated. Women will find He became interested in stadardiza- tion through its relation to national defense and fathered the National Screw Thread Commission. Tilson is an ardent wet and a liberal on the question of immigration. As President Hoover is dry, Tilson soft- Pedals his feelings on prohibition down here, but his interest in the large Italian population of his dis- trict has been conspicuous enough to warrant his decoration by the King of Italy. | \ AAS remeron | | At the Movies Se sree ini Sacto ieee CAPITOL THEATER Una Merkel, the charming actress whose “Ann Rutledge” will always be remembered by those who saw “Abra- ham Lincoln,” co-stars with Neil Hamilton in “The Command Per- formance,” in which she plays the role of a royal princess. The role particularly interests Miss Merkel because it is the first time that she has had an opportunity to play a dress-up part, having always been required to wear “rags and tat- ters.” As the Princess Katerina her clothes go to the opposite extreme, the costumer having provided her with gowns that are ultra-modern + = the most interesting gown of the col- lection will be the wedding dress. “The Command Performance,” a James Cruze production for Tiffany release, is the attraction tomorrow at the Capitol theater.

It is by far the best thing Rogers ever has done. The combination of Will Rogers and Mark Twain is a “natural” from an entertainment standpoint. Twain’s humor is the sort that appeals to everyone and Rogers certainly is the only man in our time equipped to in- terpret the master humorist’s great story. As “Sir Boss,” Rogers is immense. He imbues the character with a qual- ity of sincerity and plausibility. Many of the funniest lines are ble as Rogers’ own and embellish Mark Twain's original to a point that Twain being printed as a house. document. certainly would have roared with OUT OUR WAY | ; { el o.

WAS Hc 3,500 Deaths Reported Out of 5,000 Cases in 1930, Red Cross Man Says Washington, April 14—(#)—Thirty- five hundred deaths out of 5,000 cases of cholera. That was the word brought to the ) Red Cross convention Tuesday by M. A. Delaney, executive member of the Philippine chapter, in describing the epidemic which broke out in the province of Cebu, Philippine islands, in the spring of 1930. The outbreak was brought under control but taxed to the limit relief facilities which had at the time been operating to succor typhoon victims in the nearby province of Tayabas. “This was a small epidemic,” De- laney said, “compared with the great scourge of the early days of the Amer- ican occupation when 168,000 died. The mortality was about 80 per cent.” Between two and three million per- sons were given the cholera prophy- lactic in the 1930 outbreak. The speaker, one of several on the second day's program of the conven- tion, said the Red Cross was doing good work in the leper colony on Gulion island. Miss Elizabeth Gordon Fox, execu- tive director of the Visiting Nurse as- sociation, New Haven, Conn., said Red Cross chapters have an oppor- tunity to extend their work by for- warding the program of the white house child health conference.

McKENNEY Secretary American Bridge League Regardless of the system employed jin contract bidding, our readers must first realize that bridge is a partner- ship game. Too many players sit down at the table and play an indi- nership. In contract bridge, we are forced bid for game in order to score a game bonus, and are also required to bid for a slam in order to score the slam bonus. Therefore, only by sound bid- ding will partners arrive at the best declaration suited to the combined 26 cards of the two hands. ‘When you pick up your hand-and find that it contains a few picture cards and a long suit, do not become obsessed with the idea that you must play the hand. Remember that 50 per cent of the hands are played by your opponents, therefore your first bid should convey to your partner the information, first, that if your oppo- nents play the hand you will take at least two tricks against them, and secondly, that you have a playable eae is if your first bid is a sult If your first bid is a no trump bid, you advise your partner that you have no biddable five-card suit, no strong four-card suit, but that you have distributed strength, and of course will take from two to three tricks against any bid that opponents may make, ‘ * * Heavy penalties punish the over- bidder, while the game and slam bonus prevent under-bidding. You must,sherefore, always be in a posi- tion to collect the penalties or the game and slam awards—whichever Prove the most valuable—and this can only be correctly accomplished by making sound original bids. * Regarding slam bidding, you will notice that the slam bonuses run from 500 to 1,500 points and many begin- ners at contract are immediately im- Pressed with these large figures and endeavor to arrive at a slam on every hand. Without a doubt there are more points lost throughout the year on slams that fail than are made on slams that win.
