NDTRE DANE BEAT TROIANS, 27 10 N BAFLIG DRVE Ramblers Score - Nineteenth Victory in Two Seasons With 0’Connor as Hero. SOUTHERN CALIFORNIANS FAIL TO SHOW THREATS 90,000 See Invaders Decide Con- test Early—‘“Moon” Mullins in for One Play. BY PAUL ZIMMERMAN, Associated Press Sports Writer. LOS ANGELES, Decomber 6.— Rockne’s Rough Riders from Notre Dame, prancing behind marvelous interference, staged their last wild charge of the sea- son today and trampled Southern Cali- fornia into & 27-to-0 defeat. Paul “Bucky” O'Connor, transplanted from halfback to full, and one of wise Knute's few Irishmen, was the youth who spread the alarm to the Trojans, with Marty Brill and Marchmont Schwartz galloping closely at his side. ‘Their mad dashes struck terror in the ranks of Coach Howard Joncs' valiant eleven and carried the invading troop from South Bend through its nineteenth straight triumph in two glorious sea- sons. Irish Never in Danger. Unlike their ancestors of mythology, the men of Troy could find no Hector to lead the vaunted offense, with the re- sult that through 60 minutes of nerve- shattering spectacle Notre Dame's goal ‘was never 50 much as threatened. Defeat brought the number of re- versals to four for Southern California against one victory in its Notre Dame series. It was the most decisive trounc- ing either team ever accepted in the annals of the intersectional play. More than 90,000 frantic foot ball fol- out the startling fray, which stamped ’'s Ramblers as probably the greatest eleven the country has seen & decade. Southern California’s dashing backs found their interference fragile before the rushing Rockne line, and their pass- ing attack was pierced with constant interceptions by the secondary defense when touchdown marches seemed well underway. Notre Dame’s attack was so bafling that at no time could the Trojan de- fense organize “uituu against the un- stoppable assa From the start there was no doubt as to the outcome. Notre Dame walked ! right down the ficld from kick-off. Southern California rose pass Stanley Williamson, A!vtnaflvfl'.mhckle.mfluflm p‘i’l‘l‘ & flash the Riders charged. Schwartz fiipped an 1l-yard pass to Prank tered It was only & few plays later that ©O'Connor’s long eventful journey of 80 yards brought the second touchdown. Southern California had moved well into Notre Dame territory when Mar- shall Duffield, Trojan quarter, recov- ered a bad pass from center, and dis- playing a marvelous bit of headwork, quickly kicked over the goal line as the line rushed in on him. ‘The yard-saving feat was of no avail, for on the first play O'Connor broke away. It was a reverse and a lateral from Brill which pulled Troy’s second- ary defense aside. O'Connor filtersd through the line, cut back to the side- lines, and sped across the goal after ivoting away from Erny Pinckert, y's star halfback. ‘The second period went without & score, although Carideo passed to Dan Hanley across the goa! line, only to have the play called back and Notre Dame penalized for holding. Mullins Gets ip Game. Coach Rockne, in a gesture of respect to Larry “Moon” Mullins, fullback, whose injured knee prevented him from starting the contest, sent the South Pasadena, Calif., youth into the game on the kick-off for one play and then replaced him. It was Mullins’ last game for Notre Dame. The parade of Rough Riders started sgain. Shades of the Four Horsemen of yesteryear. Schwartz sifted through for a run of 50 yards. An offside pen- alty put the ball on Troy's 7-yard line. One of those demoralizing laterals, Schwartz to O'Connor, brought the That drive was 69 yards in seven piajs. Through the greater share of the fourth quarter’s gloom and advancing dusk, Notre Dame kept the ball deep in Southern California domain.

BRUSSELS, Belgium, December 6.— Vfl]lfirl in the Meuse Valley went back tonight to the homes from which they had fled in terror before a wall of fog (‘hm;‘t appeared to be driving death be- ore it. The fog had lifted, and with it had fi:,: the mystery with which it had endowed. The Public Health Com- mission asserted after an official in- vestigation that the more than three- score deaths attributed to the fog had resulted from nothing more mysterious than weakened respiratory systems of the victims. With few exceptions, all of those who died were more than 50 years old. A third of them had passed 60, and sev- eral were over 70. Most of them suf- fered heart ailments and were known to have had chronic bronchial trouble. The doctors sald it was the cold, smoke- laden fog, and nothing else, which choked them to death. These findings, supported by the diagnosis of physicians who had spent a frantic night treating the victims, ex- loded the theory that noxious gases | rom industrial plants had caused the | deaths, and they dissipated the fears of | peasants that Belgium was in the path | of a sinister gas barrage. Simple Folk Panicky. These simple fclk, watching their neighbors dying in alarming numbers, persisted in the belief that the fog it- self was only the screen for a deadly attack, whose origin they did not at- umg'. to explain. Some of the farm stock died also, and last night cattle slept in farmhouse kitchens, while their owners covered inside with all the win- dows sealed. Those who fled to safety at other points drifted back home again tonight, | convinced at last that the menace has been removed. At the village of Uccle on the out- skirts of Brussels there was another pathetic gas tragedy today. Five chil- | dren, ranging in age from 6 months to 6 years, were asphyxiated in their beds by gas escaping from a heater while their parents were away from home. The fog left 64 dead in eight villages in its wake. Many others were made ill, and nearly all the residents of that part of the Valley of the Meuse suffered seri- ous inconvenience from it. Huddle in Dwellings. | Even after it had lifted the terror and bewilderment which it had inspired remained.

Immediate payment in cash to World ‘War veterans of the face Valué of their bonus insurance certificates is opposed by Secretary Mellon. However, Senator Vandenberg, Re- publican, Michigan, who solicited the opinion of the Treasury Secretary on this proposal now before Congress, yes- terday submitted a counter proposition to Mr. Mellon. The Michigan Senator who has urged some action upon President Hoover, proposed in his new plan that the Gov- ernment give the veteran a Government bond, equal to the value of his certifi- cate, and which is negotiable at par, thus avoiding necessity for floating a hug: loan in the present bond market to get the funds. Secretary Mellon summed up his op- position to the cash payment in the following words: “It secms, therefore, that the proposal to pay off the adjusted service certifi- cates at this time would be against the best interests of the veterans, unjusti- fled as a matter of broad economic policy, and seriously detrim-ntal to the public debt operations of the Govern- ment."” Senator Vanderberg in his counter proposal asserted: “I am unwilling to consider this ad- Justed compensation phase closed until eviry possible useful and helgrllul re- course has been dismissed with finality." He urged that “some program be de- ‘Vlssdrb'o meet this situation in whole or n part.” Temporary Stimulant. Secretary Mellon said the distribution of $3,409,304,122 representing the face value of the certificates would “un- questionably have a stimulating effect on business, but it would be a tem- porary stimulation of an artificial char- acter and could hardly be expected to have such lasting qualities as would bring about a permancnt recovery.” He said the actual present vaiue of the certificates, which do not mature for about 15 years, is about $1,770,000,- 000 and to pay their face value would (Continued on Page 3, Column 3.)

PROGRESSIVE FORECASTS DEFICIT OF $400,000,000 Watson Calls on Hoover, sumably to Discuss New Appropriations. Pre- BY G. GOULD LINCOLN. The fiscal affairs of the National Government are agitating the legislators, with the session of Congress one week old. Senator Borah of Idaho yesterday advanced the proposition that Congress should immediately increase the normal tax rate on incomes of individuals and corporations 2 per cent over and above the normal rate paid on the 1928 in- comes, or 3 per cent more than the rate paid on incomes of 1929. He sald that after an examination of the figures relating to the Govern- ment's finances, including receipts, ex- penditures and proposed expenditures, it appeared to him that a deficit of nearly $400,000,000 faced the Treasury at the close of the fiscal y 4r next June. To arrive at such a figure, the Idaho Senator took the $180,000,000 probable | deficit of which President Hoover spoke in his annual message to Congress, the proposed $150,000,000 appropriation to speed up public building, and another $60,000,000 for the relief of the drought- stricken areas. Hawley Against Increase. Administration leaders in the House {and Senate immediately fell on the Borah suggestion for increased taxes “like a ton of brick.” Chairman Hawley of the House Ways and Means Committee when the Borah proposal was called to his attention declared emphatically: “Positively there will be no increase in the Federal tax rates over tte rates poid on 1928 incomes.” r. Hawley was asked how the ex. pected deficit was to be met. His re- ply was, “We'll have to figure that out.” He said that he was expressing his personal opinion when he said there should be no increase in the Federal tax rate. Senator Smoot of Utah, chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, which handles all tax legislation, was equally insistent that there wouid be no tax increase over the rates paid on 1928 incomes. “I do not think there will be any in- crease in the income tax rates over :2; normal rates existing in the law ay.” The Utah Senator said that he be- lieved “business will pick up” and that the returns from the present income tax rates will be sufficient to meet in large part the deficit which now con- fronts the Treasury. Bays Credit “Still Good.” He added that the credit of the United States Government was “still 300d,” inferring that if it were necessary the Government could easily raise the needed money to cover a deficlt at low | rates of interest. The banks, it has been pointed out, are filled with money waiting for investment. Such a plan, it 1s held, to meet the deficit would be far more preferable to an increase in Federal taxes, which might have a bad effect on business, already depressed and needing encouragement. The Borah proposal, however, re- jcelved support from a Democratic | source. Senator David I. Walsh of | Massachusetts, a member of the Senate Finance Committee, said last night: “I am satisfled that some steps will | have to be taken to increase the taxes on certain classes of income, particu- larly those on the larger incomes, in order to meet the deficit and other in- creased expenditures that are necessary to meet the demands of the present emergency.” Representative Treadway of Mas- sachusetts, ranking Republican member of the Ways and Means Committee of the House, however, backed up Chair- man Hawley and Senator Smoot in their opposition to an increase in the (Continued on P:ge’a_ flxmn &) TODAY’S STAR PART ONE—36 PAGES.

A proposal that dry forces lend their support to some form of national Tef- erendum on prohibition was almost overwhelmingly voted down yesterday by & group of nationally prominent dry leaders in executive session here. The group comprised what is known as the Legislati Committee of the national conference of organizations supporting the eighteenth amendment and its decision was virtually the first attack on the plan by an organized group of dry leaders. The proposal would have the drys support a resolution for repeal until the measure had been adopted by Congress. The proviro would be added that the resolution would be corsidered by con- stitutional conventions in each State, in which the drys could fight solidly against it. It was argued that without dry support the measure could never get by Congress and before the people. To Come Up Later. Despite the adverse vote yesterday, hiwever, assurance was given that the question of such a referendum will be considered at a series of dry meetings here this week and will be incorporated in a blanket report to the conference, thereby providing opportunity for gen- eral discussion. The Legislative Committee includes representatives from the Anti-Saloon e, the Women's Christian Tem- perance Union, the Methodist Board of Temperance, the Southern Methodist Board, the Flying Squadron Founda- tlon and the Good Templars. Leaders of many of these organizations have previously declared flatly against the proposal. A group of anti-prohibitionists will also meet tomorrow in Washington in what has been called a national con- stitutional convention. Neither the As- soclation Against the Prohibition Amendment nor the Crusaders, two out- standing' wet organizations, will be rep- resented, however. The purpose of the meeting was given yesterday as the ding of an answer to the demand of the prohibitionists to show them some plan to substitute for the dry laws. Campaign Planned. Dr. Clarence True Wilson, Methodist board secretary, has said he would not oppose a referendum if the wets would agree on an alternative and would abide ?g the result if it were unfavorable to em. Dr. P. Scott McBride, superintendent of the Anti-Saloon League, said today that “for the second time in the history of the dry organization the dry forces are getting ready to carry on an ag- gressive Nation-wide program to over- come wet activities.” His statement was made in announc- ing the selection of Washington for the next biennial convention of the Anti- Saloon League next December. The referendum subject was also kept alive yesterday by the Methodist Board of Temperance. ‘Want Support of Result. In an editorial in its weekly clip- sheet the opinion was expressed that no consideration of repeal of the law would have and merit unless will be supported by the wet organiza- tions and the millionaires who are at present financing propaganda against the law.” “If these organizations and individ- the editorial said, “would cease their obstructive tactics and no longer encourage crime there would be little difficulty in enforcement of the pro- hibition law.” the Sports Highlights Notre Dame's stunning 27-0 de- feat of Southern California and Navy's surprise 26-0 victory over Penn paled almost to insignifi- cance all other hap on the Nation's gridirons yesterday.

I started to ask him about the check when he interrupted me. ‘Never mind that,’ he sald, ‘T don't want any groceries, where's the money.’ " Barnhardt said he refused to tell him where the money was, and that the man then drew a pistol from his et. “Reach up,” he quoted the saying, “and come across.” Barnhardt said he offered to give the man $20 of his own money, and that the man then struck him with a piece of pipe. They wrestled, but the man broke loose and covered him with the pistol, Barnhardt sald. Struggled and Fell. When he persisted in his refusal to surrender the store’s money, Barnhardt declared, Bunting struck him again. “That made me mad,” he told police, “and I grabbed him. We struggled for a few minutes and then he fell over backward, striking his head on a set of scales. Before he could get up I took the pipe away from him and beat him into unconsciousness. Then I tied him up and called police.” Physiclans at the hospital said Bunt- ing was suffering from several deep cuts on his head and face, apparently in- flicted by the pipe. Police recovered the pistol and found & number of cartridges to match it in Bunting’s pocket. The weapon, how- ever, was not loaded.

Due to the comprehensive and force- ful program for mobilization of the Nation's resources, quickly formulated and carried into effect in a remarkable spirit of co-operation, the United States during the past year did not fall into the disastrous conditions that visited the country in the depression of 1920 and 1921, This point was stressed by Robert P. Lamont, Secretary of Commerce, in an address last night in the National Radio Forum, arranged by The Washington Star and broadcast over the coast-to- coast network of the Columbia Broad- casting System from Chicago. Outlining the many ramifications of the plans of governmental ageneies and private industry to meet the economic depression that started a year ago, and showing how these programs had fore- led much more serious conditions than have developed, Secretary Lamont concluded that he had “every confidence that our common effort will be success- ful in preventing the suffering that has always characterized such depression in the past.” Hoover Conference Lauded. Secretary Lamont declared that the White House conferences called by President Hoover “were the most prompt and effective marshaling of forces under public leadership for dealing with this problem that has ever occurred in other coun He also lers of private lustry and city and State governments for their prompt co-operation in meeting the emergency and volced gratitude over the relationship between labor an capital, to which he attributed much of the success of stabilization Jvmcu.ma Labor has fared much better unni the fil:ent depression than in past es, he sald.
