Helped in Breaking Up Fa- | mous “Friday Night” Ses- sions of House. Col. W. Jasper Talbert of South Caro- lina, former Representative, is a mem- ber of the army of Hoover Democrats Col Talbert, for the decade which he | widely known in Washington and a col- orful figure in the House. Today, in jhis 83d year, he maintains 2 keen in- terest in public affairs. ‘When the Civil War began, Col. Tal- bert, then barely 16 years of age, en- listed in the Confederate Army as & vate, He was promoted for bravery and rose to the rank of colonel. At the close of the war Col. Talbert turned to farming and made a success (of it. At present he is retired and lives | near McCormick, 8. C. Col. Talbert threw in his lot with the {farmers. He entered politics and stood for election as a friend of the farmer. He joined the Farmers' Alliance. For | four years—1880 to 1884—he was & ! member of the House in the State Leg- | islature and for iyvears he was a State Senator. He served as superintendent of the State penitentiary from 1891 to 1893, when {he entered the House of Representa- 'tives. Col. Taloert four times was re- |elected to the House, where he became |a real power and the friend of the leading Republicans as well as Demo- crats of that day. He achieved a great reputation as a story teller. ing up the famous “Friday night” sessions of the House, when private vension bills were rushed through with only a handful of the members present. After 10 years service in the House, he retired and did not seek renomination and re-election. He stod for nomina- tion for governor and failed by a narrow margin. There were six candidates for the ofl in the primary election. Col. Talbert was one of the contestants in the run-off primary, but lost to D. C. Heyward vy a few votes. Col. Talvert played a prominent part in the nomination and election of Ben R. Tillman, afterwards Senator Tillman, as governor. He was president of the State convention which nominated Till- man, the farmers’ candidate. He was acting president, too, of the South Caro- lina constitutional convention in 1895. ‘When he ran for Congress in 1892, Col. ' | Talbert opposed George D.

By Cable to The Star. scrutinizing the world’s horizon not without anxiety. For seven consecutive years since the universal slump of 1920-1921 the world’s | prosperity has steadily increased, es- pecially in America. _Europe's pros- | perity has been specially marked since 11924 and can be altributed to the Dawes i plan and the stabilization of the mark, | the lira and franc. England is the only | exception to the general rule—the re- turn of the pound sterling to par still | weighs heavily on British_ industry. | Looking et the Paris and New York financial markets, one may well wonder whether they have not reached their peak. Certainly there is no indication of & general economic crisis, though dearer money might precipitate one. However, this danger seems past for the moment. But the yleld of stocks has been lowered greatly since the Wall Street and Bourse booms began, so that industry is in_general capitalized at a high figure. Future prosperity is dis- | counted far ahead. The bulls have not been wrong thus far and if they should hold on until time justifies their optimism, they might have nothing to regret; but the danger of overspeculation remains. It.is like —the first player runs no risk in light- ing it, nor does the second Who Te- ceives it half burnt, but the flame gets nearer and nearer as each succeeding player takes his turn, and finally some- | body gets his fingers burned. The ob- | ject of the game is not to be last. | * Apprehension in America comes from the tightness of call money, which prevents the discount rate of the banks of issue from functioning normally. That is the danger of artificial control {of the money markets. It is true that | the persistent campaign talk in 1928 about prosperity also had had its effect. In Europe the anxiety felt is both political and financial. London is wor- ried about the coming parliamentary elections and the danger of a Labor victory. Paris is daily expecting a cabi- net crisis and the Berlin cabinet Is none too solidly ensconced either. Considering everything, one wonders whether the Young committee now discussing a reparations settlement will accomplish its purpose. Failure to do so would have far-reaching effects. Success, on the other hand, can enly be relative because it is impossible to satisfy both debtor and creditors. The delegates will part with some bitterness after & forced compromise, which will give each goversment a chance to pre- sent it to the people in a quite different manner from the others. After this, an attempt will be made to make the French Parliament swallow two bitier pills—evacuation of the Rhineland and ratification of the debt agreements. If everything goes as smoothly as that—if speculation calms down in New York and Paris during this delicate transition period of the Spring of 1929 and the Young committee achieves moderate success—then perhaps the British Conservatives as well as the present majority in France will manage to cling to power. In that case, this Summer might well see another for- ward push of prosperity based on real results. But if not, Europe will pass into the hands of labor and socialism, which once more, as in 1925, would be given the task of trying to untangle a hopeless snarl.

Wurzbach, only Republican in ~Congress from Texas, announced today that he had been unofficially informed that an in- dictment had been returned against him at Waco, alleging violation of the torrupt practices act. Wurzbach said the charges evidently involved contributions to his primary campaligns of 1924 and 1926 by five Federal employes, which R. B. Creage-, Republican national committeeman from Texas, recently testified to befors the Senate patronage inquiry. He denied any violation of the cor- Tupt practices act was involved, claim- ing this law did not apply to primary campaigns. In addition, he said, the | contributions were made voluntarily and the names of the donors and the amounts were submitted to the secrs- tary of state of Texas in compliance with the State law.

By Radio to The Star. BERLIN, March 2—The visit to| Europe of B. H. H. Simmons, presi- | dent of the New York Stock Exchange, | ought not to be interpreted as an effort | either to increase or to decrease the admission of foreign securities on the New York Stock Market, according to| an interview given by Mr. Simuons | today to the newspaper correspondents here. The initiation of such lstings, he pointed out, rests, as a matter cf fact, with the bankers, and any future | increase “in foreign listings will thusi depend upon the activity of the bank- mg firms both in America and in Europe. Referring to the special rules made for the listing of foreign shares on the New York Exchange, Mr. Simmons said they had not been adopted with any view either to stimulating or #rtifically hindering their entry into the merket, but were necessary both to afford American investors substantial protec- tion in technical details and to pro. mote the growth of the New York Stock | Exchange as an international market along liberal as well as sound economic | lines. Mr. Simmons declared himself de-: lighted with his stay in Berlin and with the hearty welcome he had found in German official as well as banking | and financial circles. Expressing his admiration for the energy, wisdom and said that “in many respects Berlin, in its rapid growth and in its spirit of progress, reminds me of my own city | of New York.” (Copyright. 1920.) 7-Year-Old Injured While Coast: ing Down Street.

TARIFF e — HIKE DECRIED by Raising Industrial Duty, Too, Says Winder. - | PITTSBURGH, Pa, March 2.—IlIs of the agricultural industry cannot be solved by a general increase in tariff | schedules on industrial commodities | along wtih a corresponding increase in duties on agrcultural products, H. S.| Winder, Chicago, executive secretary of | the American Farm Bureau Federation, ' told a meting of the Allegheny County | (Pittsburgh) Agricultural Co-Opera- tive Association here tonight. l Speaking in an industrial strongheld, Mr. Winder argued that agriculture could benefit by tariff adjustment only if the agricultural schedule is increased while the industrial schedule is held at the present level. | Proportionate increase in the two schedules, agricultural and industri Mr. Winder contended, would only mal the discrepancy in the conditions of the two groups greater than it is now. The speaker belleved the only thing which would bring to agriculture any full measure of help is “organization of | farmers into a group which by the power of numbers can demand justice and security and an entire readjustment between agriculture and industry.” | EDWARD GULLION WINS D.

Designed by not another eight on the Pierce-Arrow, built by Pierce-Arrow, perfected by Pierce-Arrow, the lines of this engine were first laid down more than two years ago.

But nothing was permitted to affect a single fine tradition of Pierce-Arrow manufacture. The new Pierce-Arrow Straight Eight could have been conceived and created only under such conditions as have always existed in the Pierce-Arrow plant— and nowhere else in all the automobile world. No other manufacturer commands eqt.- i Pierce-Arrow trained skill—none employs the costly Pierce-Arrow hand craftsmane ship—without which the new Straight Eight would scarcely have been possible.
