THURSDAY, MAY 21, 1981 LAST TRIBUTE PAID 10 ‘SPEED’ HOLMAN, NORTHWEST FLIER Funeral Services Held for Twin Cities Aviator Who Died in Crash Minneapolis, May 21.—(7)—Ofticial Minnesota and its citizenry Thursday paid final tribute to its premier bird- man, Charles W. “Speed” Holman. Before afternoon funeral services for ‘he man who plunged to death because he wished to help make an| air meet at Omaha a success Sunday, thousands of persons viewed his body as it lay in state in a local mortuary. Late Wednesday 10,000 filed past the bier, as fast as the military guard of honor could make possible a last look at the man some knew well but most of them just as the good-na- tured flyer they often saw doing | stunts or piloting the airmail. | Schoolboys and girls, young and! middle-aged men and women, and others gray with years came to the mortuary to pay their last respects. ‘They ‘ncluded persons from all fields of endeavor. Thousands of flowers banked the bier. Nearby, at one end a sailor stood at attention, and at the other end a soldier. The military guard, representing the 109th air squadron | and the Twin Cities naval squadron, ‘was changed every 15 minutes. Eight deputy sheriffs on motor- cycles led the way for St. Paul pall-| bearers Thursday afternoon, while police and deputies were to flank the line of march after afternoon serv-| ices.

Seek Swarthy Man ‘Thursday detectives, spurred by a statement from Spencer's widow that “the overlord of gambling here had} threatened to get Herb,” searched haunts of gamblers and gangsters for | 2 “swarthy man about 35 years old of heavy build.” An hour before the tragedy, Spen- cer, formerly city editor of the Los Angeles Evening Express, left his of- fice, telling an associate that he was going out to get some more “under- world stuff” for the magazine, which had published a number of articles on | alleged gang and vice activities here. Ray J. Radke, secretary to Craw- ford, reported to police that shortly after Spencer entered Crawford's of- fice and asked him to enter. Radke said the men talked about an hour. Suddenly two shots rang out. Radke heard @ scream and a yell from Spencer: “Get that fellow.” The door burst open and the gunman fled to the street. Radke rushed into the office and found Spencer dead. Craw- ford sitting in his chair, arose and collapsed. |Secretary Hurley “in order to clear up Julian oil scandals, but never prose- cuted.

It was said that, as disposal plans progressed, it might be possible to add other establishments to the list General MacArthur, army chief of staff, proposed the abandonments in ®& memorandum to Secretary Hurley, in line with the president's ecunomy program. Twenty-four would be abandoned entirely and 29 partially. The memorandum was requested by misunderstanding and doubt w:'h ref- erence to abandonment of army posts and reservations.” General MacArthur said his recom- mendation was “influenced by rea- sons of military efficiency as well as economy. Some, he said, long ago outlived their usefulness. He said it must be remembered that strategic locations of garrisons against foreign aggres- sion “under modern conditions of rapid transportation have ceased to be of any special value.” Some of the posts and reservations named may be transferred to other departments of the government, na- tional, state or local, if it is found they can serve a useful purpose on an economical basis, the general said. “In many cases the war department now has authority of congress to! make these sales or transfers. In other cases congressional authority must be secured.” Shepperd - Sauvain Disagree on Facts In Board Quarrel (Continued from page 1) and has asked the board to rescind its order, which it has done.” The Associated Press dispatch as- serted that Gillig “preferred not to comment.” The record of September 11, 1929, to which Sauvain referred shows that the board ordered the experiment sta- tion at the Agricultural college to perform certain services and provide help for the seed commissior-er for the biennium ending June 30 this year. It does not show, however, that the order met with the apprcval of agricultural college officials, although they obeyed it and have spent approx- imately $10,000 in the seed commis- sioner’s behalf. That Shepperd was fully aware of the situation and that either he or Sauvain is inaccurate in his state- ment is indicated by a letter written by Shepperd to W. J. Church, « mem- ber of the board, under date of May 11, the date the board voted to force the agricultural college to continue its subsidy to the state seed depart- ment. This was the day upon which | Sauvain asserted that, had Shepperd; known the facts of the case he would} not have recommended that the sub- sidy be discontinued. This asvertion! was said by Sauvain to have been! made by Shepperd during a conversa-} tion at the agricultural college sev- eral days before. Reviews History in Letter In his letter Shepperd said: “On the face of it, the order from | the board sent to Mr. Gillig as seed) commissioner states that the experi-| ment station is to carry the pure-seed work for the biennium. As I have re- cited in my letter to your board it was) not at that time anticiapted by the board that an emergency clause would be passed. For that reason it would be nothing extraordinary for the board to make a new case of it on ac- count of the changed condition. I take it that the presumption would be the same as in the original act that made a sudden change from the seed commissioner's funds carrying huis of- fice to that of a seed commissioner not connected with the institution here, and in consequence requiring funds from the college for his support. This, of course, was not planned by President Coulter or Director Trow- bridge in making up their bucget for the present biennium. “As I cited in my letter to the board, Director Trowbridge cannot recall having made any statement to Mr. Gillig proposing to carry his ex- tra expenses during the biennium | and he is unable to find a copy of! such a letter in his file. | “I enclose copy of my letter from! Mr. Gillig which you read the other} day in which he states that he has such a letter from Dr. Trowbridge of- fering to take care of the seed labora- tory financially for the biennium. I dropped a note to Mr. Gillig asking him to supply me with a copy of that letter but he has not had reasonable time to answer as yet.” Whether or not Gillig supplied the copy of the letter asked by Shepperd is not disclosed by the records avail- able in Bismarck, Sent Views to Board In a letter to the board of admin- istration, also dated May 11, Presi- dent Shepperd reiterated the view that the agricultural college should be relieved of the burden of subsi- dizing the seed department. He pointed out that “certain funds here- tofore supplied by the Flax Seed Crushers’ and Users’ associations” to the college had been withdrawn as/ well as the revenue from the experi-| ment farm curtailed, and then said: “I wish to reiterate my statement of last Friday (May 8) and also at your meeting on April 16, to the ef- fect that it would seem but fair to the experiment station for the pure seed commissioner's office, which is now provided with funds by the state legislature, to carry its own costs as @ reciprocal courtesy to its benefac-| tor, the experiment station, and for. your board to put into effect such a: plan in a manner similar to that in which you made the pure seed office beneficiary of the experiment sta- tion some 22 months ago. i “I note Commissioner Gillig’s con-| tention that an agreement was made, or perhaps more correctly, that an’! order was issued by the board in 1929. to the effect that the experiment sta- tion was to carry the seed laborat the | in’ the | costs for the biennium 1929-31. It the close of the present biennium— July 1, 1931—to carry on its work.” Cites Conditions Changed The letter further asserted that the change in conditions and the fact that the seed department now has a big appropriation available seemed to him to warrant a revision of the sit- uation by the board. In closing, Shepperd stated: “The experiment station is being forced to curtail its work by reason of a lack of the funds which were taken from it to carry the seed commissioner's office for the period of approximate- ly 20 months—July 1, 1929, to March 10, 1931—by an order of the board of administration, issued to my prede- cessor, President J. L. Coulter. “It would seem to me only fair and Just that the board of administra- tion should at least require the seed commissioner to carry the cost of his office following the date upon which funds were made available to him by the state legislature for his work.” This letter was written on the day Sauvain quoted Shepperd as being in harmony with the action of the board in ordering the subsidy of the seed department by the agricultural college continued until July 1. McKelvie Explains American Stand on Wheat Exportation (Continued from page one) tic consumption and ask farmers to Produce no more and no less. The blunt “domestic basis” advocat- ed by Alexander Legge, former chair- man, did not carry to the public mind the qualifications imposed by weather and the changing food, feed and seed requirements, it was said. Observe Acreage Law i The program to put American pro- duction on a domestic consumption basis, it was said, embraced full cog- nizance that no given acreage will re- turn a constant yield year after year and that there must be some wheat carried over at the end of each sea-) son to insure against possible crop failure the next season. American mills require about 40,- 000,000 bushels of wheat a month and jit would be to endanger the consumer to wind up the crop year with empty bins and risk the necessity of import- ing wheat over high tariff walls. A “domestic basis,” it was said, in- volves the production over a lceng pe- riod of years of a crop which in the aggregate would supply actual and potential domestic requirements with- out saddling the market with stocks in excess of those demands. Such a picture necessarily holds the accumu- lation of wheat for export but elimin- ates consecutive production of im- movable surpluses such as now dis- tress this and other exporting coun- tries. In the final analysis, acreage ad- justment merely means the! the American farmer would f:oduce wheat for a domestic rather than a world market. The seeming paradox in McKelvie’s London statement was described as a lack of general under- standing that from time to time there would be more wheat than this coun- try could use but that the entrance of such surplus into export channels would not necessarily mean the price it brought would determine domestic values. Soviet Explain Stand Meanwhile, at London, Soviet Rus- |sia’s delegates to the world wheat conference said they opposed a plan suggested by McKelvie for reduction | in wheat acreage, because industrial} and social conditions in Russia made) increased wheat production inipera-| tive. The Russians said “It seems advis- able to us to allow each country to decide for itself whether to curtail production of agricultural commodi- ties, and wheat in particular,” and that Russia's pre-war status must be considered in fixing any quota scheme. Caraway Scores Plan In a speech at Hot Springs to the Arkansas Bar association, Senator T. H. Caraway said if American rep- resentatives at the conference were successful in reaching an agreement to restrict American exports or acre- age the effect would be “to starve people off the farms and into the cities.” Senator Caraway asserted the gov- ernment owes agriculture, as a class, the obligation of removing the “high and unjust tariff.” “The present administration tells the farmer he must go back to the w of supply and demand,” he said. “There is no such law, under the tariff.” 18 Elgin Seniors Will Get Diplomas Elgin, N.

The charges in the complaint, on file in supreme court several weeks, were not disclosed. McNamee said he had been served with the papers about the first of the month. He denied that the action was by mutual consent and said it would not be contested. They were married 10 years ago after meeting at a concert in the Dutch Reformed church in Bronx- ville, N. Y., where both were on a musical program. McNamee was @ baritone singer before he became an announcer. Disclosure of the separation suit came as a surprise to their friends, among whom they were described as an ideally married couple. McNamee often has been quoted as saying his wife was his severest critic, who sat at one of their five radio receivers at home and listened to him broadcast descriptions of sporting events, po- litical meetings and other doings. In the current issue of Radio Di- gest, Mrs. McNamee has an article describing the life of the radio an- nouncer's wife: “I make it a point to keep the hours he keeps and to entertain our friends when it is convenient for him. Many a time I have made pancakes and fried egg sandwiches at 4 o'clock in the morning. “Although Graham’s work takes him away a great deal, I have one advantage over other wives. always hear him. ‘The first thing he does when he finishes a broadcast is to telephone me and say, ‘Ind you hear the program?

LEAGUE ENDORSES MORTGAGE COMPANY Acrimonious Debate Develops Over League of Nations’ Position in Liberia Geneva, May 21.—(#)—The League of Nations council Thursday formal- ly endorsed a proposal by the Pan- European commission for establish- ment of an international mortgage credit company, and went on to clean up issues of lesser importance pre- paratory to winding up its meeting. There was some acrimonious debate regarding the league's position in Liberia. The Venezuelan delegate insisted that its Liberian policy must never be political lest the African republic's independence be com- promised. Efforts to suppress alleged slavery there will be weakened, he said, it the league adopted “imperial func- tions.” Arthur Henderson, British foreign secretary, announced that his govern- ment had approved his selection as chairman of next year's general dis- armament conference, and he de- posited ratification by Great Britain, Australia and New Zealand of the general act for peaceful settlement of international disputes. Aristide Briand deposited the French ratification of the same act and also of the protocol covering ad- herence by the United States to the world court. Dino Grandi deposited Italy’s rati- fication and Sir Atul Chattergee de- posited the Indian ratification. Wilting or shrivelled combs are the first signs to indicate that hens have ceased laying.

SPECIAL SESSION OF CONGRESS IS URGED BY BOB LAPOLLETTE Says It's Necessary to Avoid ‘Third Winter of Unemploy- ment’ for Millions ° ‘Washington, May 21.—(P)—A vastly expanded public works program made | possible by an immediate special ses- sion of congress was seen Thursday by Senator La Follette as the sole hope of avoiding “the dire conse- quences of a third winter of unem- ployment for many millions of our citizens.” Speaking as chairman of the un- employment and industrial stabiliza- tion committee selected at the recent Progressive conference, the Wisconsin Republican based his conclusions upon a preliminary report by Dr. Isa- dor Lubin, chairman of the confer- ence sub-commtitee on unemploy- ment. “The federal government alone can meet the widespread distress which the report reveals,” LaFollette said. “At the present rate of industrial re- vival the number of unemployed to be provided for during the coming win- ter bids fair to remain close to the 6,000,000 found by the census bureau in its enumeration of last January.” No Change Indicated The senator said the report showed little or no evidence that the re- mainder of 1931 would: bring suffi- cient improvement. At the same time, he continued, “our municipal- ities are fast approaching exhaustion and many cities already are experi- encing difficulty in rendering aid to their jobless citizens.” | He summarized the sub-committee report as showing decreased freight car loadings in the weck ending May 8, contrary to the usual seasonal| movement; @ fall in April to 74.8 per} cent of the 1926 average of employ- ment in manufacturing industries; a! steady steel production for weeks of only 47 per cent of theoretical capac- perience has perfected form which has brought ity; a downward trend in the cutput of electric power until it was lower in March than at any month in secent years except February, 1931; smaller American exports in April than any time since 1914; and a slight decline in March department store calle. Tax Receipts Fall Virtually every city in the country was declared to have experienced a fall in tax receipts, indicating, La Follette said, that city budgets would be less able to cope with unemploy- ment this winter. “Unless the federal government spends now, the cost of heaiing those injuries which are likely to occur dur- ing the coming 12 months will be many times more than what may be saved by our present policy of ‘ederal economy,” he asserted. “A special session of congress should be called immediately to re- lieve distress among the unetploy- ment. Unless an extra session is called there will be a delay of months before any action can be taken to ex- pand our public works program.” Exonerated Beauty Will Go to Paris Nice, France, May 21.—(7)—Exon- erated in the slaying of her husband, Mrs. Nixon-Nirdlinger dedicated her first day of liberty in two months to her two children.

U.S. Plan Opposed by Saskatchewan Farmers Saskatoon, Sask., May 21—(#)—The Saskatchewan section of the United Farmers of Canada has issued a statement favoring an international sales agreement on wheat. The statement, which is by way of comment on the London wheat con- ference, opposes the suggestion of the United States delegates that a reduc- tion of acreage is the solution of the wheat problem. Orderly marketing controlled by the growers will be the final practical method of disposing of world surpluses, the organization says. For the texture of the soil and the emount of rainfall over North Dako- ta, the common tendency is to plow the ground too much and too deep.

Both can’t be right—one or the other is mislead- ing the public by their comparisons. Firestone, in their advertising, only make comparisons that can be easily verified by the customer before buying tires, To attempt to substantiate the comparisons made by this mail order house, it would be necessary to go into a laboratory and employ experts. ‘The very reason that the comparisons made in Firestone advertising enable you to get the facts yourself, makes it un- necessary for Mr. Firestone to make affidavit on the truth of his statements or to file any complaint with the Federal Trade Commission, and then advertise it, in an attempt to lead the public to believe his statements were true. Mr. Firestone doesn’t ask you to accept comparisons about Firestone Tires and special brand mail order tires until you see the facts yourself. Neither do we.
