NEW AND OLD SOUTH PAY TRIBUTE TO LEE Dedication of Statue at Richmond Leads Dixie Exercises on 125th Anniversary. By the Assoclated Press. RICHMOND, Va., January 19.—The new South and the old South were one today as Robert Edward Lee, the great chieftain _of the Confederacy, was’ honored throughout the vast territory once under the Stars and Bars. Virginia, on whose battlefields Lee waged campaigns which stand as monu- ments of military strategy, and for whom he labored in peace as in war, took the lead in the observance of the 125th anniversary of her famous son. But from the plains of Texas to the Capitol at Washington the day was ob- served by descendants of those who followed Lee in the campaigns from Bull Run to Appomattox. The old hall of the Virginia House of Delegates at Richmond, the Confed- eracy’s capital, was the scene for im- pressive ceremonies dedicating a full- length bronze statue of Lee. Robert E. Lee, 4th, great-grandson of the general, was named to unveil the bronze likeness, which stands on the exact spot where Gen. Lee stood when | he arose to accept the command of the armed forces of Virginia on that mem- orable 23d of April, 1861. HOOVER CREDIT BILL ATTACKED BY SOVIETS Pravda Says Measure Will Weaken Dollar and Possibly Suspend Gold Standard. By the Associated Press. MOSCOW, January 19.—Favorable action by the American Congress on President Hoover's two-billion-dollar reconstruction bill drew a prediction from the newspaper Pravda yesterday that the measure would result in weakening the dollar and possible suspension of the gold standard by the United States. The Communist party organ based its conclusion on the heavy deficit in the United States Treasury, the balanc- ing of which, it contended, will be pre- vented by economic conditions, despite Secretary Mellon’s plans to increase taxes and the belief that the depression has lifted. “On the contrary, we may assure Mr. Mellon that the crisis is growing worse Why don’t you make your dollars go farther than ever before . . . take advantage of our Greatest January Sale of and the deficit will grow,” Pravda said. “The United States Government expects to cover the two billion capital by loans and all sorts of financial operations, but, due to the crisis and the fear of in- flation, it will hardly be able to pump money from the population. “By giving them a subsidy of indus- trial capital, the bankrupt banks of the United States will be forced to take the path of inflation.” Stating that the United States’ gold stocks are decreasing and foreign in- vestments are being withdrawn from the country, the newspaper added: “The United States is menaced by the crisis of the dollar, which will be more important than the abolishment of the gold standard in England because the United States is the most powerful country in modern capitalism.” News Rack Thefts Total $500. Attention of police of several pre- cincts has been called to the robbing of the honor system newspaper racks, especially in the vicinity of Brook- land. Most of the thefts, it is report- ed, are perpetrated after sundown, and police were told that money taken from the cash boxes of one paper amounted to fully $500. B-S" Tired, Worried, Worn Out?
