RICHMOND, Va., November 17—| which will disclose the marble image | iof Woodrow Wilson and seven of the | | members of his cabinet witnessing the | ceremonies, & bust of the last of the | line of Virginia-born Presidents will be | unveiled this afternoon in the new hall | of the House of Delegates. | The exercises in memory of the seven other Virginians who were the Nation's Chief Executive were held in the historic hall of the House of Dele- | {gates, but the new hall was chosen for the ceremonies for the war Presi- dent because he addressed the General Assembly of Virginia there in 1912. John Barton Payne, former Secretary of the Interior in Wilson's cabinet, wiil deliver the address and other cabinet members will pay one-minute tributes to Wilson’s memory. Gov. John Gar- | land Pollard will preside at the cere- | monies and will introduce the speaker | and distinguished guests. Rev. George | C. Bellingrath of the Westminster | Presbyterian Church of Richmond will | pronounce the invocation. Former Cabinet Members to Attend. The former cabinet members who will witness the ceremonies, besides Judge Payne, are Senator Carter Glass of Lynchburg, former Secretary of the Treasury; Josephus Daniels of Raleigh, former ~Secretary of the Navy; A. Mitchell Palmér of Washington, {grmer , Attorney General; Willlam C. Redfield of Brooklyn, former Secretary of Com- merce; Willlam B. Wilson of Bloss- burg, Pa., former Secretary of Labor, and J. C. Mc. Reynolds of Wash- ington, former Attorney General. It is a source of keen disappoint- ment to State officials that Newton D. Baker, Wilson's Secretary of War, and other members of the War President’s cabinet, were not able to attend. The presence of the seven members here today is the nearest approach to a re- union of President Wilson's advisers that ever has been held. The Wilson bust was executed by Miss Harriet Frishmuth, New York sculptor, and is the gift to the State from Mr, and Mrs. Louis Pennington of Washington. Bust to Oceupy Niche. Following the exercises, the bust will be placed in a niche in the rotunda of the Capitol, in the center of which | stands Houdon's famous statue of George Washington, while in other re- cessed spaces are busts of Thomas Jef- ferson, James Madison, James Mdnroe, Willlam Henry Harrison, John Tyler and Zachary Taylor, constituting what is now called “Virginia's Gallery of the Presidents.” Motion picture news reels are to be taken on the portico of the Capitol and the exercises are to be broadcast over a National Broadcasting Co. network. Functions in connection with the event include a luncheon to the cabi- net members at a hotel here and a re- ception in the Capitol ritunda follow- ing the exercises. Mrs. Wilson will be entertained at lunch by Gov. and Mrs. Pollard at the Executive Mansion. She has been the guest of friends in Rich- mond for several days. ‘The exercises today, the final event of the series, will eclipse in interest any that have preceded it. The over- flow will be admitted to the Senate chamber in which a loud speaker has been installed, but it is not expected this will prove adequate fcr the throng, which is expected to be the largest gathering at the Capitol in several years. Col. John W. Williams, clerk of the House of Delegates, who is in charge of arrangements, has been besieged with requests for cards of admission, which will be required for the lower floor of the hall, although the gallery open to the public. Cards for all of the available space have been is- sued, and Col. Williams for the last 24 hours has been occupied with explain- ing his inability to accommodate more in the limited space. COLLAPSE AT FIGHT 200 Alexandria Spectators Are Thrown to Floor During Portner Arena Bouts. Special Dispatch to The Star. ALEXANDRIA, Va, November 17.— Although 200 spectators were thrown to the floor in a heap when a light bleach- er séction of the Portner Arena col- lapsed during the second preliminary of the boxing bouts being staged here last | night for the benefit of the Alexandria Day Nursery Fund, only 14 persons were slightly injured. The stand was about | 10 feet high. Prompt action by the Alexandria | police and fire rescue squad in getting some 20 persons out of the wreckage and in keeping the majority of the capacity crowd of nearly 3,000 in their seats, prevented a near panic. The bouts were resumed after the crash. Ten persons were treated by the rescue squad for skinned legs, and C. F. Marlow, 704 King street; William Free- | man and Jobn Barrett of 2828 Bunker Hill road, Washington, and Mrs. Jennie Bollman, 2123 I street, Washington, were carried to the Alexandria Hos- | pital for first-aid treatment.

In his own words, the his- toric vessel “seemed as sound and fit as a bell to him,” if somewhat altered since last he strode her decks. The reconditioned and recommis- sioned Constitution, which has been on public _exhibition at the Washington Navy Yard since Saturday a week ago, was built almost 50 years before Hoeke | was born, he said, but he s proud of the fact he has known the famous old | fighting ship at least half of its life, Hoeke was a drummer in the Marine | Corps when the Constitution was as-| signed to training duty at the Naval Academy, and although he never served HAWLEY OPPOSES INCREASE IN TAXES Oregon Republican Places Government Relief Second to Business. By the Associated Press. Placing relief of the Government sec- ond to relief of business, Representa- tive Hawley made it plain today he is | not convinced a tax increase is impera- | tive. He headed the Ways and Means Com- mittee of the last House, which group must originate revenue legislation. Returning to the Capital the day after Senate administration leaders de- clared additional governmental revenue essential, the Oregon Republican said he had hoped “no increases would be necessary, but sentiment around here seems to favor one.” “If an increase should become nec- essary we would have to study the situ- ation carefully and put the additional levies where they would do the least harm.” he added. “It seems to me the | way should be made as plain as possible for an economic recovery and that ad- ditional taxes would delay that re- covery.” Hawley viewed business conditions as beginning to return to normal and said: “That is what makes me_careful re- garding tax matters. Relief of the| Government is a secondary considera- tion; relief of the people and business | is a primary consideration. “The normal Treasury surplus in 1928 and 1929 from the present tax would wipe out any increase in the bonded indebtedriess in a very short #me. I see no reason why conditions shouldn't be_as good as they were.” In the face of the administration’s apparent determination to recommend | increased taxes, Democratic leaders in Congress withheld their views pending party conferences. Senator Harrison of Mississippl, | ranking_Democratic member of the Senate Pinance Committee, said, how- ever, if the administration wished re- vision, the burden must be placed “upon those best 2ble to pay.” “The Derocratic position with refer- ence to increased taxes,” Harriscn said, | “will be determined after full confer- ences and exchange of views between the Democratic membership of the | House Ways and Means Committee and | the Senate Finance Committee, With | other Democratic leaders. “The whole financial system must be studied and the views of economic and | financial experts must be cbtained with reference to the effect of additional issues of Government securities on the present credit_structure.” Meanwhile, Representative Bacharach of New Jersey advanced a plan which contemplated a graduated increase on income taxes above $20,000, applica- | tion of a gift tax and luxury taxes and | an increase in estate taxes. He esti- | mated it would bring an additional $750,000,000 in revenue. Bacharach, a ranking Republican on the House Ways and Means Committee, some months ago advocated higher in- come taxes, but suggested the in- creases begin on incomes of $100,000 « « .

By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, November 17.—Plans for the organization of the minute men of the Democratic National Committee, newly” created advisory body, were out- lined last night to a conference of 40 prominent New York City Democrats by former Gov. Alfred E. Smith, John J. Raskob and Jouett Shouse. Mr. Shouse, National Executive Com- mittee chairman, said the formation of the “minute men” is the “climax to the national committee’s continuous ef- forts since 1928 to build up a militant party headed toward victory in 1932 and beyond.” He reported numerous indorsements of the movement have been received from all over the country and many had applied for membership. Mr. Raskob, chairman of the Na- tional Democratic Committee, said, however, the choosing of members of “minute’ men” would be very selective. Invitations have been mailed to more than 2,000 business and civic leaders in the 48 States, he said. Former Gov. Alfred E. Smith char- acterized the movement as “one of the most constructive steps ever undertaken by a Democratic National Committee in the interest of the party and good gov- ernment.” He quoted as exemplary of the ideals of the organization the words of Thomas Jefferson, “Let us hasten to re- trace our steps and to retain the road which alone leads to peace, liberty and safety.” PROCHANZKA MURDER WARRANT WITHDRAWN By a Staff Correspondent of The Star, UPPER MARLBORO, Md., November 17.—As indicated in his announcement yesterday, Deputy Sheriff Thomas H. Garrison withdrew the warrant charg- ing Frank Prochanzka with the murder of Emmanuel Thorne. Withdrawal of the warrant automatically canceled the scheduled hearing before Justice of | Peace Thomas D. Griffith, and neither | Prochanzka nor Arthur C. Keefer, his attorney, appeared at the magistrate's office. Prochanzka lives in Greater Capitol | Heights and formerly operated a ga- | rage there. ‘The body of Thorne, a U. S. Marine, was found about 300 yards from the garage, but authorities were unable to find any evidence linking Prochanzka with the crime.

The heavy withdrawals of gold from America during October were described today at the Commerce Department as having virtually ceased, and again im- | ports of the metal are tending to exceed | exports. ; The sudden shift in the flow of gold which reversed the trend of many months and took $398,604,000 from this country In October, was said by some department officials to have been due to | European misconception of the proposed | national credit coporation. During the | month $60,907,000 came in. | “Ordinarily,” said one authority of | the department, “this movement would | have continued just long enough to en- | able European central banks to make short term credit adjustments. | | Panic Seized Europe. i “It happened, however, that a state | of panic suddenly seized upon Europe’s | financial centers due, apparently, to a general misconception concerrning the method of operation of the proposed | National Credit Corporation as well as the extent to which gold withdrawals were affecting the so-called ‘free gold’ held by the Federal Reserve banks. | “This resulted in a raid on the dol- lar which led to a highly accelerated gold outflow. As soon as it became evi- | dent that Federal Reserve banks were readily meeting all demands without | any diminution in the amount of ‘free gold’ held and without even a sugges- tion that demands would not continue | restored, with the result that since the | beginning of November earmarking of gold for foreign account has virtually ceased and imports have tended to ex- ceed exports.” Trade Balance $36,000,000, ‘The upward spurt of American favor- able merchandise trade balance, which started in September, continued its im- petus in October. The favorable dollars and cents bal- ance on merchandise shipments grew to roundly $36,000,000, as compared with slightly under $10,000,000 in Sep- tember and an unfavorable balance of | approximately $1,200,000 in August. Exports during October were round- ly $205,000,000, compared with $180,- 231,000 in September and $326,896,000 in 'October last year. Imports were roundly $169,000,000, compared with $170,368,000 in September and $247,- 367,000 in October, 1930. A part of the increase in merchan- dise exports was due to larger ship- ments of cotton. DELICIOUS Pure Wholesome GULOENS ‘ 7 Mustard .

Just saturate some cotton with Nujol and rub it gently all over your baby’s body. It keeps him ¥rom etting chapped and chafed. And eaves his skin as soft and smooth as velvet. Use it when you change his clothes. Whenever his skin has been exposed to irritation. A bottle of Nujol costs you no more than pink ribLonl on” the baby’s bonnet. And it’s worth a lot more Lo him! Try it. Certainly it could do no harm—for Nujol contains no drugs or medicine. Your druggist carries it. Be sure you get the genu- ine. Sold only in sealed packages, never in bulk. Nujol works so easily and naturally that it won't upset a baby under any conditions. It keeps everything functioning properly. It not only prevents any excess of body poisons (we all have them) from forming, but aids in their removal. It is safe and sure. Nujol was perfected b the Nujol Laboratories, 2 Parl Avenue, New York City. Just try Nujol fnri'our baby. Give it to him regularly for the next three months.
