Maryland, that George Washington knew and loved probably best of all the colonies and States next to his home Commonwealth of Virginia, has been one of the pioneers in the movement to celebrate the bicentennial of his birth. Every time Washington looked across his spacious lawn, over the picturesque waters of the broad Potomac, his eyes fell upon the hills of Maryland, As & young man he hunted, fished and went 1o dances and many a “rout” just across the river on the “Maryland side.” As he grew older he found as many true friends on the Maryland side of the great waterway as in his beloved Old minion. How the Old Line State stood by him stanchly through the trying years of the War of Independence has been SENATOR A, W. BARKLEY. BARKLEY T0 TALK ON SUPRENE COURT Radio Forum Add;ess of Ken- touched on briefly here for the readers of The Star by William Tyler Page, clerk of the House of Representatives and executive secretary of the George Washington Bicentennial Commission. Mr, Page is & Marylander with the pride of the Old Line State very much at heart. Mr. Page is also the author of the only definite plan for the year-long, Na- tion-wide celebration of the Washington bicentennial that has been published. It is now being followed in all of its main outlines and most of its details by the directors of the 200th anniver- sary celebration, He is a student of American history and especially of the life of Washington. Pioneer in Movement. “The State of Maryland was one of the pioneers in the movement appro- priately to celebrate the bicentennial of George Washington's birth,” said Mr. Page, “by the creation of & State com- mission to co-operate with the United States commission and _its personnel ‘was appointed by Gov.

Two hundred and fifty were killed, and 100 wounded, thus offering their lives in Maryland w: title of the ‘Old Line State.’* “It is sald that Washington shed tears of joy when he welcomed the first company of coonskin-cap recruits from both banks of the Potomac who vied with each other to be the first to help drive the red-coats out of Hoston. “Gen. Washington regarded Mary- land as the granary of the Confedera- tion. Possibly the first time he was able to report a full supply was in his letter to Gov. Thomas Sim Lee of Mary- land, October 12, 1781, just before Yorktown, in which Washington said: Give me leave to return to you my sin. cerest thanks for your exertions on tl nt occasion. The supplies granted y the State are so liberal that they remove any apprehension of want.” Maryland Gave District. “Maryland gave to the Federal Gov: ernment the territory now comprising the District of Columbia in which Washington’s contacts were so intimate and numerous as to comprise much space merely to mention them. “It was to Maryland that President Washington turned to secure funds with which to complete the Federal buildings, and it was Maryland's Gen- eral Assembly at Ar:e rulh and the guarantees of individual Marylanders that provided the necessary money which made it possible for Congress to open the first session in the leral Capital. “It was at Annapolis, Md., that Gen. Washington resigned his commission at the close of the Revolutionary War. His nomination in the Continental Congress as Commander-in-Chief of the Revolutionary forces was made by Thomas Johnson, first governor of Maryland, between whom and Washe- ington was a strong bond of friendship. “It should not be forgotten that Charles Willson Peale, a Marylander of the Eastern Shore, was the first to paint George Washington, in the uni- form of a colonel in the Cdlonial Sel fce.

The Supreme Court of tlie United States and its relation to the everyday life of the American people will be the subject of an address in the Natlonal Radio Forum delivered by Senator A. W. Barkley of Kentucky Thursday, May 8, at 9:30 p.m.. The forum is arranged by The Star and sponsored by the Co- lumbia Broadcasting System. It will be heard locally through WMAL. The Supreme Court has been in the public eye in recent days more promi- nently than for a long time because of the Senate debates over the nomination of Chief Justice Hughes and the nomi- nation of Judge John J. Parker of North Carolina_to be an assoclate justice. One school of thought in the Senate holds that the membership of the Supreme Court must be Mberalized, particularly by the appointment of men who take liberal views on public utility and other economic questions of the day. It is this school of thought, represented by Sena- tors Norris of Nebraska, Borah of Idaho and others, which has been ranged in opposition to the confirmation of the appointments of Chlef Justice Hughes and Judge Parker. ‘The r school of thought is more conservative. It would leave the inter- pretation of the laws to -the Supreme Court. It.does not see danger -to the American people from recent decisions of the Supreme Court in cases involving economie questions. ) Senator Barkley, who s to discuss the rAellt:Al)n of the‘ sukprmla.e Court to the me: people, 1s & a former Judge and untll he was clected to the Senate, served as a member of the House.

Mrs. Gallo- way's change of mind, he svers, has caused him great embarrassment and humiliation both America and abroad. He attributes Mrs. Galloway's action to her two children. ‘The courtship, Tecktonious® bill states, extended over ufln years, The an- nouncement of their engagement, he said, was made at a Junch at the Hotel Crilion in Paris.

Overproduction, which tends to make the supply of fearm Eroducu greater than the demand, was held as a leading factor in the lack of prosperity of the farmer, in an address by Assistant Sec- retary of Agriculture Dunlap, at & luncheon of the Washington Round ‘Table in the University Club yesterday. In turn, overproduction was declared to be an outgrowth of the World War during which farmers were urged to produce ss much as they could. ‘The speaker said the stabilization of prices of faym products is necessary, saying the middleman’s profits should be reduced, pointing out that some in that class get three times more for cer- w': farm products than the farmer Be!

There are three dis- tinguishing marks, he said—apparent lack of utilitarian’ motive, stereotyped form of behavior, and either remorse or tendencies of the criminal to injure bimself, It often develops, he said, that the culprit “is an intelligent, often talented man, pleasant and universally beloved, who, as if driven by an evil spirit, some- times commits acts quite contrary to his character, Here scientific knowl- edge must bow to the intuitive wisdom of the folk. Behind the myth of the evil spirit lles a true observation. The demon is the powerful, compulsively conquering unconscious.” Punishment and threat is of no value in such cases, he said, because they fit into the conflict which causes the crime, The crime sometimes is ac- tually committed in order that the criminal may be punished. It gives him the feeling of having paid his debt to soclety. “The punishment that is endured” he saild, “is the very thing to break down the moral repressions of these men, lessen their sense of guilt, and encourage them to new offenses. Herg is the explanation of the obstinate tend- ency of this type to relapse. “Change of environment also is of no avall. Improvement of the outward conditions of life increases the feeling of guilt, strengthens the need of punish- ment, and we see the tragic spectacle of, these people committing new crimes just after an improvement in their cir- cumstances, Neglects Childish Demands. “The increasing organization of soclety forces man to an adult life in a higher degree than he can live, and neglects his childish demands. There is an in- creasing control of the principle of utility and a decreasing of the principle of pleasure. Our mechanical economic form of civiligation shows this to an extent never before reached. The re- sult is & damming up of the playful, irrational pleasure-seeking formerly as- sociated with human occupations and social activities, This increases the con- ditions for neurosis and for crime.” Apparently hopeless criminals and ne‘erdowells sometimes show a tendency to reform when about 30 years old, said Prof, Karl Birnbaum of Berlin. In these cases, he said, the difficulty comes from “an episodic rtholoflcnlly conditioned disturbance of development such as is common to most persons at adolescence but which in the psycho- pathic personality lasts longer and is much more severe.” When approaching middle age there comes .“a soclaliza- tion after an apparently hopeless so- cial deterioration due to inner causes. Normal personalities have made the adjustment lon* before this.” From 50 to 75 per cent of beggars, tramps and thieves show serious mental abnormalities, said Dr. Birnbaum. There also appears, he sald, a decided rela- tionship between broken families, so- cial degradation and crime and mental instability—so much so that these may even be considered stigmata of psycho- pathic tendencies, Money Consciousness Explained. A 's attitude toward money often is determined in the unconscious, sald Grace Marcus of the New York Charity Organization Soclety. For some, she said, it represents a compensation for emotional poverty and inferiorities. For others it means a magic release all responsibility. Some consider it evil and its possession a curse. ‘This attitude, Miss Marcus said, must be consdered by charity organizations. “The attachment to money of such ex- aggerated emotion values,” she said, “operates to distort its use in reality. Money will not be emp!o‘yod for practi- cal needs but to satisfy unconscious desires in ways antagonistic to the wel- fare of soclety. N “The connecfion between economic dependency and emotional dependency is usually such as to render futile a treatment of one that does not em- brace treatment of the other.” Psychoanalysis should be employed to understand and guide children, satd Dr. Bernard Glueck of New York. Re- cent experiments have shown, he said, that such common behavior of chil- dren as thumb sucking has its back- ground in the unconscious conflicts of the child. “The child,” he said, “is obliged to adjust itself to the requirements of an environment created and maintained out of the dispositions and preferences of adults. Its growing inclination to adjust itself to these requirements is opposed by innate forces that are pri- marily selfish and pleasure seekin, Misunderstandings that in reality are the direct provocatives of maladjust- ment are unavoidable unless the in- nateness and naturalness of these ten. dencles are recognized and intelligently dealt with." Urges Psychiatry Study. It is conservatively estimated that 70 per cent of a physician's daily work ‘is with patients whose sickness is func- tional rather than organic, but whom he continues to treat with prescriptions because he does not know how to deal with mental conditions even when he recognizes them, sald Dr. Edward A. Strecker of Philadelphia. ‘The physical symptoms, he sald, may be headache, vomiting, fluttering heart or intestinal pains, and if treatment is directed at these surface symptoms practically no progress will be made. Such patlents, Dr. Strecker said, are passed around from specialist to spe- cialist. He insisted that this might be overcome by greater emphasis on psy- chiatry in medical education, ‘The mental hygiene movement is bringing about a far-reaching change in man’s philosophy of living, Dr. Wil liam A. White, superintendent of St. Elizabeth's Hospita. resident of and the congress, said last night at_ thed jn inaugural session at Constitution Hall. “It would seem that the future of the evolution of man,” he said, “will be almost wholly confined to the evolu- tion of his mind and from what we know of the mind and from our studies of the brain, the capacity for develop- | p ment of man’s mind is to all intents and purposes infinite. It is fair to as- sume that at some future date man may acquire as much knowledge of himself and control over himsell us he has knowledge and control of his environment at present. I believe this century will prove the test of all centuries In accomplishment. “Medicine nas I enough main- tained as ideals, tnxom and the putting off of death.

PAIR 10 QUESTION MURDER SUSPECT Baker Case Clues Practically Exhausted—Latest Not Taken Seriously. ‘Two members of the detective bu- reau’s homicide squad, Clarence Talley and Charles Weber, left Washington shortly before noon today to question & prisoner in the jall at Warrenton, Va., who is reported to have intimated that he knew something about the slaying of Mary Baker, The man was arrested in Manassas for passing three alleged worthless checks in Remington, Va., and is said to have attempted suicide after men- tioning the Baker case. Inspector Wil- liam 8. Shelby, chief of detectives, puts little credence in the report. According to information from War- renton, the prisoner does not answer the description of the man seen strug- ling with Miss Baker in her car near gevvnuem.h and B streets a few hours before she was murdered. Officlals in Fauquier County, who questioned him, also are convinced that he had no connection with the crime. A vague statement made by the man at the time of his arrest aroused the suspicion of the Fauquier authorities. Simultaneous with the lssuance of the order to Detectives Talley and Weber to go to Warrenton, Inspector Shelby sent several other members of the homicide squad to check up on the movements of an itinerant painter, who is said to have boasted that he knew Mary Baker, The painter is reported to have left home Saturday night, telling his wife he was going away in quest of work and would write her when he “got settled.” Aside from these two investigations the search for Miss Baker's slayer is at a virtual standstill Inspector Shelby revealed that since the investigation of the Baker case had slowed down, he has devoted consider- able time to the preparation of a re- port comparing crime conditions in Washington with those in other cities for the first three months of 1930. He predicted that it will throw “some in- teresting sidelights” on conditions in ‘Washington. Inspector Shelby sald Washington was absolutely free of murders in March, but in April six persons were killed, exclusive of Miss Baker, whose death will not be credited to the crime statistics until it is definitely deter- mined where she was killed. Five of the six persons killed in April were colored, the sixth being Prohibition Agent Lamar W. York. All six of these murders have been solved Inspector Shelby pointed out, and arrests made in five cases. The police, he said, know who committed the sixth crime, but have been unable to locate the murderer. KUNKEL SAYS WIFE THREW KNIFE AT HIM Trial Involving Princess Fails to Arouse . Interest of Denver ‘Woman Court “Fans.” By the Associated Press. DENVER, Colo., May 7.—Man spec- tators have crowded the court room here to hear testimony in a case involving the alleged theft of & purported prin- cess’ love, but Denver women have evinced little interest in the trial. Yesterday only two women, one, Prin- cess Marie Alimova Kunkel, for whose love William J. Kunkel, 28-year-old New York fruit broker, has brought suit against Willilam Bryan Quigley, Denver attorney, attended the trial. The other woman was a friend of the princess. Kunkel described a scene at the Penn- sylvania Station in New York, which he said occurred when his wife was served with notice of his divorce action against h Quigley, he said, embraced and kissed Mrs. Kunkel in his presence be- fore she boarded the train. He further told the court that his wife, in a fit of temper, threw a kitchen knife at him when they were living in an apartment in Kew Gardens in 1927. ress of the movement of which he him- self was credited by Dr. White with being the guiding genius.

Insanity tends to kill itself off, ac- cording tg_statistics presented to the American Psychiatric Soclety by Neil R. Dayton of the Massachuseits De- partment of Mental Diseaess.

Total, 41, Of those not voting it was announced that the following were paired: For confirmation: Republicans—Moses, Phipps, Norbeck, Goff and Grundy. Democrats—Smith, King and Fletcher. Against confirmation: Republicans —MeNary, Robsion, Brookhart, Glenn and McMaster. Democrats—Thomas of Oklahoma, George and Helfin, Deneen and Brock Tell Tale. When Senator Deneen of Illinois finally cast his vote today against Judge Parker and Senator Brock of Tennessee, did the same, it was realized that all chance of the confirmation of Judge Parker had gone, even though Senator Steck of Iows, & Democrat, voted for the North Carolina judge. So close was the count, however, that a single switch from the opposition would have brought a tie vote, and the Vice dent would have been called upon to determine the issue. Senator Borah of Idaho, closed the debate, which ran for an hour and & half at the Senate session today. The I'l“h:l Senator in his final statement de- clared: “In all this debate, no Senator has sofled his 1ips by defending the ‘Yellow dog' contract.” It was because Judge Parker, in a de- cision involving this contract, had sus- tained an injunction against the United Mine Workers of America in the Red Jacket Coal Co. case that Senator Borah and many of the other Senators opposed the confirmation of Judge Parker, Borah Criticizes Fess. Senator Borah sharply criticized Sen- ator Fess and other members of the Senate supporting Judge Parker because they had sought to show that opponents of Judge Parker were attacking the Su- preme Court and were socialistic in their views. He pointed out that when Chief Justice Taney was appointed to the Su- preme Court the appointment was at- tacked by Webster, Calhoun and other Senators famous in their day and that they had been opposed to Taney be- cause of his belief and not because of any lack of gualifications on his part. ‘The Idaho Senator argued that Abra- ham Lincoin had proposed before he became President and before the Civil War to overrule the decision of the Supreme Court in the Dred Scott case by placing men on the court who would reverse that decision. Simmons Asks Confirmation. Senator Fess of Ohlo closed the ar- gument in favor of Judge Parker. Others who spoke today in support of Judge Parker were Senator Simmons of North Carolina and Senator Glass of Virginia, Senator Simmons made an eloquent plea for confirmation of his fellow North Carolinian, a Republican. He declared Judge Parker’s fitness for office and denied flatly that Judge Par- ker was unfriendly to organized labor. He pictured his development from the days of his boyhood when he said that he was born and reared among laboring people and had worked his way through college. He said that Judge Parker had won the respect and admiration of North Carolinians gen- erally, Republicans and Democrats alike. He denied that the appointment was political, Senator Shipstead of Minnesota, Farmer-Labor, urged the rejection of the nomination of Judge Parker and warned that the courts of equity In this country were s menace to the human race. He demanded the ap- pointment of judges to the Federal bench who would be guided by the principles of humanity in construing the law. Senator Hiram Johnson of California attacked the appointment of Judge Parker, too. President Hoover must fill the vacancy in the Supreme Court with another ap- pointment. So far there has been no indication to whom the President would turn, He flatly had declined to with- draw Judge Parker'’s nomination, al- though urged to do so by some Repub- licans, and had stood squarely back of it. The defeat of Judge Parker, which had been forecast for sometime, although with & constant shifting of votes the is- Sue was not decided until todsy, is the first real reversal President Hoover has met at the hands of Congress, except in the case of the national origins princi~ ple of arriving at the immigration quotas. It was announced at the White House that the President would issue a statement later this afternocon on the Parker vote in the Senate. Air Is Tense During Debate. Tenseness was in the air as the final debate Dbegan. The gallerles were crowded. Senator Dlvls A ed of Pennsylvania, & member of the Amer- ican delegation to the London Naval Conference, entered the chamber soon after noon and was applauded vigor- ously. He had been paired with Senator Robinson of ~ Arkansas, Democratic le:-dnr. another delegate to the London Conference. Both were present today and therefore expected to vote on the Plé:er lnunélmuon. nator s of Virginia was recog- nized. He rose to the defe Pnrk:r. ense of Judge “Situated as I am,” sald Senator Glass, who is a candidate to succeed himself at the election this year, “it would be easier to vote against Judge Parker than to vote for him. I have tried in vain to find some reason to vote against him which would satisty my conscience. First, I inquired if he was fitted for the position, I have found from leading lawyers that he is well qualified. Then I considered the protests made against him by the labor leaders of the country because of his decision it the Red Jacket Coal Co. case. I came to the conclusion that Judge Parker simply had followed the decisions of the Supreme Court. I dismissed that objection and I do it reluctantly. I think that Judge Parker reslly is a friend of the laboring man.” Senator Glass said there have been brought into the debate other consid- erations, which he described as “some~ what extraneous, but_inevitable—politi- cal considerations.” The Senator from v said he did not think it ever would be possible to divest Federal ap- pointments from that question. ‘The contest over the Parker nomina- tion has been more bitterly conducted than that over the nomination of Chief Justice Hughes, and is comparable to the fight which was made in the Sen- ate on the confirmation of Associate Justice Brandels, who was appointed to the Supreme Court by the late Presi- dent Wilson, back in 1916.

PARKER VOTE ENDS {SCHOOL ESTIMATES 10 BE SUBMITTED Tentative Budget Will Prob- ably Be Adopted by Board of Education. The estimated cost of the operation of District of Columbia public schools for 1932 will be presented to the Board of Education at its meeting this after- noon by the board’s committee on finance, under the chairmanship of Dr. Abram Simons. ‘The finance commitiee held its final meeting on the 1932 estimates yester- day, and since the full membership of the board sat with the subgroup, the tentative budget framed by the com- mittee probably will be adopted. As the budget is prepared by the school authorities it is subject to modi- fications, depending wholly upon the appropriation bill for 1931, as it finally passes Congress. At present the 1931 bill, having passed the House, has beens reported out by the Senate committee, which, however, modified it to a con- siderable degree. The bill now must pass the Senate and then go into con- ference between the House and the Senate before it is possible to adopt it. Meanwhile the District Commissioners had called for the 1932 estimates from the various municipal departments by May 5. The Board of Education, to- gether with the school cfficlals, made every effort to prepare the school esti- mate by that date, but were necessarily delayed pending the report on the ap- propriations bill by the Senate com- mittee which would indicate the trend in the upper branch of Congress on school needs. Besides Dr. Simons, the members of the school board finance committee who framed the estimate were: Dr. H. Bar- rett Learned and Dr. J. Hayden J¢ Presi- | son. George F. Bowerman, Public Library, will ask the Board of Education to allocate the triangular corner of the Macfarland Junior High School for & branch library. Dr. Bower- man is requesting this land parcel at this time that he may complete his estimates for 1932.

Fol- lowing the lead of Senator Hill, the Senate turned down these appointees. President Cleveland then sent to the Senate the nomination of Edward Doug- las White, a Senator from Louisiana. It was promptly confirmed, and Justice ‘White later was appointed Chief Justice by the late President Taft, The opposition to the appointment of Judge Parker has taken three lines. He has been opposed on the ground that he has been unfair to organized labor because he sustained an injunc- tion against the United Mine Workers of American in the Red Jacket Coal Co. case, which involved the “yellow- dog” contract between the mine owners and the mine workers, Opposed by Colored Groups. He has been opposed by the Associa- tion for the Advancement of Colored People because of a speech which he made when he was candidate for Gov- ernor of North Carolina in 1920 in which he is quoted as saying that the Negro was not fitted for participation in elections. Finally, Judge Parker's appointment has been assailed on the ground that it was a “political” appoint- ment, an effort on the part of the Presi- dent to build up the Republican pary in North Carolina. Supporters of Judge Parker replied to these charges. They held that his decision in the Red Jacket case was in conformity with the decision of the Supreme Court in the Hitchman case and that he could not have decided otherwise. They sald, too, that Judge Parker has been very fair to the col- ored people in his decisions as judge of the Fourth Judicial Circuit Court of Appeals, and that the colored people of his own State favor his confirma- tion. The charge that the appoint- ment was “political” was denied flatly by Attorney General Mitchell, who has informed Senate that all of Judge Parker's qualifications were gone into carefully before the appointment was made. He holds that Judge Parker is well qualified for appointment to the supreme bench. Named Judge by Coolidge. Judge Parker was appointed a judge of the fourth judicial cireuit Court of Appeals by President Coolidge. His appointment by President Hoover to the Supreme Court gives to that circuit, which covers Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, North and South Carolina and Georgia. the first Supreme Court ap- pointment in 70 years. The nomination of Judge Parker was sent to the Senate by the President March 21. It was to fill the vacancy Ccaused by the death of the late Justice Sanford of the Supreme Court. Jus- tice Sanford was & Republican from Tennessee. Parker also is & Repub- lican. Hearings were held at which representatives of the American Fed- eration of Labor and of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People appeared in opposition to Judge Parker. The Senate commit- tee voted 10 to 4 not to invite Judge Parker to appear before it to answer these oharges, although he had ex- pressed a willingness to do so if re- quested by the committee. It then voted 10 to 6 to report the nomination adversely, .

SENATOR W. H. McMASTER. MMASTER FACES FIGHT BY BULOW Incumbent Senator Defeats Hoover Republican in South Dakota Primary. By the Associated Press. SIOUX FALLS, S. Dak, May 7— Senator W. H. McMaster, Republican independent, and Gov. W. J. Bulow, Democrat, were nominated for United States Senator from South Dakota, a post now held by McMaster, according to unofficial returns today on Tuesday's State primary. Miss Gladys Pyle, secretary of state, was leading a field of five in the Re- publican gubernatorial race. Miss Pyle held a plurality of more than 1,000 over former Gov. Carl Gunderson, who was running second. It appeared certain, however, that neither Miss Pyle nor Gunderson would receive the 35 per cent of the total vote necessary for nomination, and that it would be necessary to decide the nom- ination in party convention, Gov. Bulow's running mate on the Democratic ticket, D. A. McCullough, was leading L. E. Corey, Wagner pub- lisher, by a small but apparently safe margin for the gubernatorial nomina- Danforth Concedes Defeat. Benator McMaster's victory was con- ceded at midnight by George J.

Bulow won the Democratic nom- ination for the Senate to oppose Mc- Master in the final election by over- whelming James McNamara of Huron, who was placed in the race where the Prty faction disagreed with Bulow’s re- usal to oust a Republican bank super- intendent. Representative Royal Johnson, from the second district, was nominated by a large majority over Tom Ayred, who ran on & wet platform. ‘Woman's Victory Is Surprise. In running for the Republican nom- ination, Senator McMaster asked to be elected “as a vote of confidence in Northwest progressive Republicans who voted with Democrats against admin- istration policies.” He was the first of the independent Republicans to run for re-election since the advent of the tariff bill in Congress. Miss Pyle's strength came as a sur- prise to most political observers who during the closing weeks of the cam- paign predicted she would poll a low vote. She was the last candidate to enter the race and made a campaign against her four male opponents with- out the support of party leaders. INCUMBENTS ARE NOMINATED.

Lambert stated today that he is preparing a plea in abatement to the indietment in which he will charge that a member of the grand jury had convicted in Police Court April 2, 1937, of & violation of the national prohi- bition act. Lambert said he would rely on the - decision of the District Court of Appeals in the case of Wilbur H, Rock, & re- tired police officer, in which that court held that the transportation and pos- session of liquor by Rock involved moral turpitude. _ Justice Charles H. Robb fled a dissenting opinion. Justice Frederick L. Siddons of the District Supreme Court, who first heard Rock case, held that no moral turpitude was involved in the n and transporting of liquor. United States Attorney Leo A. Rover announced today that when the plea is filed he will direct Assistant United States Attorney Neil Burkinshaw to put the matter down for immediate hearing. Rover will oppose the plea on the view that the peculiar facts of the Rock case were responsible for the decision, it being shown that the officer had taken a special oath to support the Consti~ tution and the violation of the oath added to the gravity of the offense.
