DRY ISSUE ENTERS ‘SPEAKERSHP RACE Rankirn Assails Proposal to Speed Repeal Move in New Congress. By the Associated Press. The fight in the House for the speak- ership yesterday centered around prohi- bition, with Representative Rankin of Mississippi, a candidate for the Demo- cratic nomination, attacking Repre-|gas sentative Rainey of Illinois, the present majority leader, for his purported plan, if elected Speaker, to pass a resub- mission resolution under a suspension of rules. Rankin quoted Rainey as having said in a recent speech that “if he is elected Speaker he will recognize someone to move to suspend the rules and pass a resolution to resubmit the elxhuenth amendment to conventions in the vari- ous States on the first day of the ‘session.” That, Rankin asserted, would “ex- pedite legalizing the liquor @raffic, thereby denying reasonable time for debate or opportunity for amendments.” “To suspend the rules on the first day * * * and pass a resolution to legal- ize the liquor trnmc would, in my opin- don mark the high point of legislative stupldity for all time,” Rankin said. “The liquor question * ¥ * does not com- pare in importance with the demand for currency expansion, unemployment re- lief, farm relief, and other similar meas- ures that go to the very heart of our present troubles. “If I am elected Speaker, I will not deny a hearing to either the wets or the drys. But I serve notice now that so long as I preside over the House of Eepresentlt ives no liquor legislation will be e under suspension of the Tul GROUNDED SCHOONER ABANDONED BY CREW Skipper, Last to Leave, Rests After Working 18 Hours to Save Lumber Boat’s Cargo. By the Associated Press. EUREKA, Calif., January 21.—The last to leave his stricken ship, Capt. Adolph Ahlin, skipper of the lumber schooner Tiverton, which went aground near Humbodlt Bar early yesterday, came to Eureka last night for rest after 18 hours of tireless effort to save the cargo of the ill-fated craft. Capt. Ahlin, nearly exhausted from hunger and cold, followed the 16 mem- bers of his crew ashore. The doomed ship was rocking un- easily 250 feet off shore last night. More than six feet of water wes in the engine room, Coast Guards said, and officials of the Christenson-Hammond Line, owner, said they had given up hopes of salvage. * Coast Guards said the pilot light on the south jetty was out and Capt. Ahlin was apparently confused in attempting to guide the ship into the harbor. GIRLS ARE BEST TIPPERS BOOTBLACKS DECLARE Gratuities Have Fallen Off, One Who Visits Federal Offices Says, but Women .Most Generous. Despite the depression, girls in the Government departments ‘are more gen- erous with their tips to bootblacks than men. “No s declared one bootblack, who makes’ regular rounds of three or four different Government buildings, shining shoes, “the men don't tip as well as the ladies these days. Of course, nobody gets as many tips now as they used to. The boys in the shoe- shine parlors tell me they don't get near as much as when people made lots of money. “But don't you believe the men tip the most! It's the ladies who are the kindest now. Why some of them pay as much as a quarter for a shoeshine.” —_— “SPECIAL DISPATCH” AIR SERVICE IS PROPOSED Establishment of a frequent “special dispatch” airmail and express parcel post service between the National Cap- ital and New York is proposed in a plan submitted to the Senate Appro- priations Committee James M. num president of the Ludington Air- The plan would make possible round trip mail and parcel service between ashington and New York during the course of a single business day, it is claimed; a type of service which now exists nowhere in the world. Under the proposal, letter mail would be carried at the rate of 25 cents for the first ounce and 15 cents for each additional ounce, and parcels, up to a limit of 10 pounds per parcel, would be carried at 65 cents for the’ first pound and 25 cents for each additional pound.

We have an average of 10 of those people in the District of Columbia. As I said be- fore, they are selected by the Metro- politan police, and we know nothing about them except that we provide the money to pay them. That expenditure ought really to be transferred to the expense accounts of the Metropolitan police, I should say, by any fair appor- tionment.” A statement showing the total num- ber of special employes known as “stool pigeons” and also special agents throughout the country was inserted in the record by Col. Woodcock, ;hcwlnt a total nuymber of 340, including 38 special agents. To all a total of $49,500 was paid. Referring to the local prohibition en- forcement _district, Col. Woodcock's table explained that of the 146 “special employes” in this district during the fiscal year 1932, “the number employed by the Metropolitan Police Department was 69. They were employed,” con- tinued the explanation, “for periods ranging from three to four days to practically the entire year, but the av- erage for the year was 10 special em- ploves.

What do you have to say about that?” Col. Woodcock replied: “I do not know whether it is true or not, Con- gressman. Of course, unquestionably, you can buy liquor if you search for it. Draws War Comparison. “We do not regard that as necessarily reason why our efforts have been mtllz " declared the colonel. “What we claim to be able to db is to drive the violations to cover. If I may use an |y analogy, which will take just a moment, our armies on the Western front would drive the enemy down into his trenches and down into his dugouts, and then they were there sustained by an enemy population. We could not reach that enemy population who were supporting the army by bombs or bullets; you could reach them only by ideas, and President ‘Wilson did that. If you will recall, he told the German people that we were not making war upon them and he un- dermined the whole morale. “My own theory of enforcing the law is that law enforcement can only drive the bottlegging traffic to cover, just as our armies drove the enemy’s army to cover. To break up the traffic com- pletely, you have to resort to weapons of ideas and ideals and persuade your gcod people not to support and sustain them by buying from them. That is my own theory of this problem of national prohibition.” Another discussion of Washington's liquor situation was started by Tinkham, ‘when he presented the “polka dot map” of Washington purporting to show the ll’ggilue Depmmenn liquor raids during Col. Woodcock challenged it as exe- cuted by the Crusaders. Asked by Tinkham whether he thought the map accurate, Woodcock said he did not know.

LOUISVILLE, Ky, January 21— Officers of Louisville, Jefferson County and Southern Indiana united today in efforts to solve the killings of Deputy Sheriff Jack Riddell, active in raids on bookmaking and bootlegging establish- ments, and Homer Wright, known to police as an alcohol runner and a firm friend of the slain deputy. Last week Deputy Riddell was shot and killed by one of four colored men ‘whose activities on a street he had been summoned to investigate. The shyen escaped.

I heartily agree with the report of a special committee of the Chamber of the war debt situation recently with the following conclusions, zmch the mmbershtp of the chamber now - 1. We are cppoeed to debt cancella- lon. 2. We are in favor of a review of the war debt situations with a view to de- termining what the individual debtor nations can pay in the light of present economic conditions. Fruent debt 3. If any change agreements s made, conditions, we should be given 1n ex- change commercial and trading ad- Vantages which would tend to ncreass cur export trade. It is my own view that there will b> no marked world improvement in eco- nomic conditions until the war debt juestion has been carefully reviewed and settled. Stable Currency Needed. ©One condition should certainly be re- moval of the greatest number of the barriers which now impede com- merce. It is particularly desirable that there should be stability of foreign cur- rency, so that foreign commerce could be carried on with a medium of ex- change of known value. The coming international economic conference and the settlement of war debts, while separate, have a very :h-e and intimaje relationship, one other, and we can expect the ean!er- ence to produce very much better re- sults and foster world recovery to s greater degree after there is assurance that the debt question is on the way to settlement, Simultaneously with the meeting of the economic conference, the disarma- ment conference will be cununuml lu discussions and it is certainly hoped that a part of the huge burden o! comparative armament costs may be lifted, and all nations repruentea be brought into mutual agreement and tha some of the more terrible and frightful of waj weapons be banned.
