PAPER' PROTESTS HEARST LAW “AD" Kansas City Star Denies Publishing Editorial Credit- ed to It in Advertisement. Br the Associated Press KANSAS CITY, May against publication, as ment, of a Hearst editorial purporting to have been printed in the Kansas City Star, on the subject of President Hoo- ver's recent speech on law enforce- ment, was made in a telegram last night from the Star to William Ran dolph Hearst The editorial appeared in the Hearst newspapers, the advertisement crediting the Star with its publication appearing later in other newspapers Mr. Hoover's address on law enforce- ment, made before the annua! meeting of the Associated Press in New in which the President declared that the Nation faced a crisis unless there should come a change toward law en- forcement, was attacked by the New York publisher's statement. The Star carried the publisher’s views in 2n in- terview. The telegram of protest fol- ws ‘William Randolph Hearst, “The American “New York City: “The Kansas City Siar emphatically protests against publication in your newspapers and other newspapers as an advertisement of the Hearst editorial on the Hoover speech and the Jones law, as being reprinted from the Kansas City Star. The Star did not print such an editorial or signed statement. What it did print was an interview with you of s than a column when you passed through Kansas Cily April 24, but even this was not in the form in which you are printing it in newspapers. After you offered the Star this prepared state- ment your secretary was informed that the Star would not print even as an in- terview those parts of your statement that were purely propaganda and had 1o news interest. It did not do so. The Kansas City Star writes its own edi- torials. It is not in sympathy with the views expressed in your statement. “GEORGE B.

An incomer to the country accorded freedom of the port is relicved from paying customs dutie: After saying the practice was based upon statutes and could be changed only by Congress. Lowman found upon in- vestigating the subject later that there was no statute bearing upon it, but that | it had been. followed for vears. He said the custom was based on international practice and Treasury Department de- c.sions. Law of 1920 Is Cited. The last of these decisions and that upon which the present customs regula- tions are based was issued October 4. 1920, and provided that the privilege ! of free entry should be extended to the baggage and other effects of foreign Ambassadors, Ministers, charge d'af- aires, secretaries, naval, military and other attaches at embassies and lega- tions, high commissioners and cosnular officers and to American officials of like grade. It also included in the scope of the privilege prominent foreign visitors who might be designated by the State De- ! partment. The order provided that ac- | credited diplomats or American diplo- | mats needed only to show their creden- | tials to secure the privileged status | Freedom of the port has consisted in passing all the baggage of the person receiving the privilege without examina- | tion. but a study of the regulations to- day by the Treasury showed that the old orders regarding the subject pro- | vided only that it relieved the person of paving duties and did not provide that their baggage should not be ex- | amined. | An Exception Is Noted. |, In relation to extending the privilege to members of Congress, Lowman said | it could be done only when Senators | or Representatives were abroad on offi- | { cial Government business. He pointed | out. however, that when a member of | Congress asked for freedom of the port upon his return from a foreign trip and |said that he was going on an official | mission, the Treasury accepted his word | without question and granted the re- quest. The investigation ordered by the as- sistant secretary will include the origin | of the practice and possible abuses of |1t. as ' well as any impositions upon the Customs Bureau in asking extension of the privilege. | ! Liquor and Opiates Barred. Free entry, Lowman said, did not per- im" the person receiving it to bring in | | contraband such as liquor or narcotics. | He said some members of a party of | | Congressmen which returned recently | Panama had secured freedom of the| | port before departing by saying they | | were going on official business. Other | | members of the party cabled the Treas- ury from Panama asking for freedom of | the port on their arrival. | Lowman said this could not be gmnt-‘ | world. I MUSIC ROLAND HAYES' RECITAL. ‘The Belasco Th-ator was packed to | its capacity yesterday afternoon with | an audience that showed great en- thusiasm over the singing of Roland Hayes, the Negro tenor, who has won pr from audiences all over the The event yesterday was given as a benefit for Gerald Tyler, a former teacher in the public schools, who also participated in the program as com- poser, arranger of others’ compositions and pianist. He showed admirable courage and pers>verance in the man- ner in which he played a group of piano compositions with only the left hand. His selections included compo: tions by Seriabine and MacDowell which he had arranged. and the Doni- zetti-Leschetizky “Lucia di Lammer- moor” music. Just preceding the last group of songs, Poland Hayes an- nounced that $1,500 had been raised for the benefit fund by this concert and would be placed in a bank in Oberlin, Ohio, under the supervision of ward Dickerson of that city. which also is Geraid Tyler's home town With the excellent as ance of Per- cival Parham at the piano, the tenor gave a program similar to those give previously in Washington.

Jong known as a leader in varied musical endeavors in Wash- ington. The program was given artistic arrangement and included an interest- ing variety of the highest type composi- tions. The performers all showed care- ful preparation of their solo and en- | semble numbers. A trio opened the program—Men. delssohn’s “Trio in D Minor"—the fi movement being played with admirable co-ordination of their several instru- ments by Paul Brightenburg, violinist: Frank Westbrook, violoncellist, and Emerson Myers, pianist. From an artistic point of view, prob- ably the outstanding group was_ that composed of two short works by Bruch and DeBeriot, played by the two ob- viously gifted young violinists, Isaac Minovich and Milton Schwartz. Both boys have sincere attitude toward their work and show thorough technical foundation as well as talent. r Books Bought in Any Quantity “Bring them in” or Phone Met. 5415-5416 David _Legum _won unusually en- D.
