WAVES ENDANGER 1. S. COMMISSION Delegation Hears Samoani| Plea for American Citizenship. Br the Assoclated Press. TAU, American Samoa, October 4— skillful handling of a wave tossed | whaleboat yesterday saved four mem- | bers of the Congressional Samoan Com- | mission from being thrown into the | heavy surf of Tau Island. | Two huge waves broke over the prow | of the boat, threatening to capsize it, but High Chief Tufele expertly ma- neuvered it from the shore to the| cruiser Omaha, anchored outside the | breakers | The commissioners, Senator Bingham of Connecticut, Senator Robmson of Arkansas, Representative Beedy of | Maine and Representative Williams of | Texas, were drenched but unharmed. | In speech and .song, the Samoans of Tau Island appealed to the commis- sioners to intercede with Congress to | grant them American citizenship after | 30 years of governmeni by United | States naval officers. Four chiefs testified the naval a- | ministration was good, but they asked | for citizenship and more recognition | of Samoan rights. Chief Tufele, Gov- | ernor of the district under naval au- thority, was host to the commissioners, who returned last night to Pago Pago, rrincipal Samoan town. INTERNAL AFFAIRS | DISTURB AUSTRIA| Breach of Constitution Laid to New Cabinet—Fascists to Ignore Flections, Says Leader. By the Associated Press. VIENNA, October 4. —Anxieyt wa manifested today in political circles over latest developments in internal affairs.| The new cabinet was charged before | the bar of Parliament with a breach of | the constitution by its first governmental ‘ act. The new cabinet, on being formed, immediately dissolved Parliament with- | out first introducing itself to the House | in the knowledge that a vote of non- | confidence was awaiting it which would compel it to resign immediately. A circumstance which has caused un- easiness is a proclamation signed yes- terday by Prince Starhemberg, the new minister of the interiar, in his capacity of supreme commander of the Fascist Heimwehr, declaring determination of the Fascists to retain newly acquired | Parliamentary positions even if the | Socialists should win the general elec-, tions of November B FREELAND L. VAN EPPS, TIN CAN TOURIST, DIES Author of Magna Charta for Fam- ed Order of Travelers Expires at Wisconsin Home. E7 the Associated Press. PORTAGE, Wis.,, October 4.—Free- land L. Van Epps, who wrote the Magna Charta of tin can tourists, is| dead at his home here. Though an old man, he had the urge | to travel, and yearly made a trip to| Florida with “Mother.” They traveled | in a big house car—a bungalow on wheels—where they could cook and sleep along the way. There were hundreds like the Van Epps in Florida; old people, mainly, a little bewildered, and anxious to make friends who would play cards or pitch | horseshoes with them. | Thus the Tin Can Tourists of the World came into existence, with Van | Epps as a leader. This creed was| drafted: | “Camps clean, both physically mdi morally, the golden rule in relations with others, and mutual helpfulness to members in distress or trouble.” The club song was Van Epps’ inspiration, “The Tin Can Forever,” sung to the| tune of “Rally 'Round the Flag.” | That was four years ago. Since then | elderly tourists from the Northern | States congregated by the thousands | every Winter in a designated city of Florid2, held meeiings, had horseshoe | pitching contests and conducted reclu- tions and plays. The high point for Van Epps was | last year, when 800 tin can tourists held | their Summer convention at Portage. He was 71, but he pitched horseshoes | along with the best of them, and even danced a few steps. The mayor was| there and the Governor sent greetings. } He had been planning to make the | trip to Florida again this year. Ti-| bealth_interfered. —“Mother” may go| to fulfill his wish; if so, probably by train instead of auto. REVENUE BUREAU SEEKS | $448,580.36 TAX PAYMENT Asks Court for Lien Against Timo- thy J.
