KMERICAN REGISTRY American Ownership Also is Key- note of Statement ¥ssued by Ship- ping Board Merber. | Washington, | Sept. 9 UP—Ameri éan ownership and American regis- try for the American merchant ma- rine was the keynote of a statement issued today by Commissioner Teller of tHe shipping board, chairman of the bord’s sales committee. The statement was prompted, Mr. Teller safd, by remarks recently made by a “prominent official of certain industrial and shipping in-| terests owning and operating one of | the world’s largest flects under for- elgn. flag.” This unnamed official was credited by Mr. Teller with saying the mer chant fieet should be sold immedi ately “without regard to the nation- ality of the buyer, the flag under which the vessels would iperate, on the assurance of the service which would be guaranteed American com- meree.” The commissioner said that in some quarters the “insistence that the government abandon all means | ot national pride and safety” in an effort to divest itselt of shipping holdings was regarded as an at by foreign intere under the title of American owner- ship” to evercome competitive ele- ments In ocean transportation which the American flag has created ABUSIVE TELEGRAM Soviet Trade Union Indignant At | Action_In England. Bournemouth, . Sept. 9 UP— | A copy of a lengthy and abusive | telegram, purportedly signed in be- Ralf of the all-Russian central coun- | cfl of trade unlons by M. Tomsky, Moscotw fraternal delegate wl the government forbade to land in England, was circulated y among tha delegfiates to the British | trade union congress, in session here. The general council of the T. T ., in circulating the document, at- tached a refoincr, in which it stated [ it had no intention of replying “to| this 1ll-instructed and presumptuous criticism.” The Tomsky telegram attacked the British conservative governmen which it said “willingly admits re resentatives from Amsterdam and | the American atian of Labor who either b leg the miners or ghamefully talk of loans at inter- est,” but refused to admit repre sentatives of the soviet workers, who were “glving their last penny to help thelr class brothers in thi great fight.” | BURIED AT ARLINGTON | Washington, 8ept. 9 (P — Major | Géneral John B.

DAUGHERTY ON TRIAL President - Maker’s Trial Packed With Irony BY GENE COHN Nea Service Writer New York, Auk. 9—The frame- work of the picture in which sits “the biggest man that ever went to criminal trial,” is bafflingly old fashioned—like long hair and red 1nel In the center of it sits the chief tefendant—Harry M. one time attorney gen He b chewed tobacco when It talked polf ics and, with unerring aim, could Lit a knothole in the fldor. He chews tobacco in court, with an old-fashioned spittoon handy—a spittoon, not a cuspidor! 3 Such archaic words as“muckrake’ are heard in the lobby and political methods are mentioned which, hovw- ever afive today, sound oddly anti- quated, Daugherty Only. $391,000 Even the sums of money men- tioned scem old-fashionedly small, when one recalls modern-day bhoot- leg operations. This leisurely, hulkin Daugherty is charged with peddling his honor as a cabinet member, his post as head of the department of pustice, for a paltry $391,000. This it is averred, was the amount of a bribe given for speeding up the claim fér the delivery of seven milllons in stock of the German-owned Ameri- can Metals company seized during the war. Ironically enough, the manipula- tion of this property of a one-time enemy was shared, according to the charges, by Col. Thomas Miller, a founder of the American Legion and at present on its national executive council. Miller was at the time alien property custodian. No one seeks to conceal the feel- ing that the entire Harding admin- istration is on trial; that the skele- tons which have rattled of graft and intrigue are ready for a belated dance. All these are stark and dramatic realities; yet the feeling of reality persists. There is the old-fashioned tobac- €0 chewlng defendant. The ancient federal building. The high-ceilinged and severe court room with its long bare benches, stepping one on top of another like eircus seats. A novelist sits taking notes for a future book. William Travis Jerome, Thaw prosecutor, now of the defense, is ultra-thearical. He wears a palm beach suft of immaculate linen, his hair has become almost white and his deportment is the apotheosis of dignity. “Baby Prosecutors” In contrast are the youthful co- horts of the prosecitor, Emory R. 3uckner, a mere United States a torney attacking a one time attor- ney. general. Some have whimsical- ly called it the “baby prosecution,” for the assistants of Buckner are eager, zestful youths, scarcely one above 30. The inevitable Buckner black- | board is in view. This means, of course, the “A-B-C” method of pre- senting his case, used in the recent motion picture trials. In contrast, too, are the jurors, , business men, brokers, e salesman, an insurance solicitor— such must pass on “the president- maker.” A .president may be fmpeached biit never brought to public trial. A member of a president’s cabinet has never before in history stood so ac cused. ven the judge’s wife is there—in a fashionable street drese. The “younger generation” crowds the lobbies waiting seats. More than halt of these are bobbed-haired girls from the universities eager for | disillusionment. Their tales will go back to the ecampus and &pread from youth to youth. These future voters will tolerate no ‘“old-fash- ioned" politics. Their frank and cy- nical comments tell the story. BI6 LIQUOR HAUL 3100 Gallons of Alcohol and 3500 Quarts of Whiskey Seired by Po- | Yice at Branstable, Mass, Barnstable, Mass, Sept. 9 (A— Three state troopers seixed 3100 gallons of alcohol, 500 quarts of | three automobiles and rrests in an early morn- ing y here todfy.

The Yangtse engagement referred to was a brief battle between Chinese |1and troops and British gunboats at Wanhsien, on the Yangtse river, in which several British naval cfficers |and seamen were killed or injured. | There was nothing in the somewhat detailed reports of the affair recelved | here to indicate that American ves- | sels were involved in any way. | England Waiting | London, Sept. 9 P—While the | British government seems unlikely |to do anything for the moment re- | garding the Kiawo incident, in which | several British naval officers and seamen were killed or wounded by Chinese troops attached to Wu Pel- | Fu's forces, it is certaln there will { | be some sort of diplomatic action as |soon as conditions warrant. In view of the chaotic condition in China, no diplomatic note has been sent to Peking. In fact, the | unoftictal attitude is that such action in the present state of affairs would | ! be rather a compliment to the Pe- king regime whicl is supposed to be | governing the countr |~ However, if Wu Pei-Fu retires suf- ficiently to escape the Cantonese reds | | who are harassing him, and can | again give his attention to such “ir- responsible acts of brigandage” as the Kaiwo affair, he will hear from | Great Britain in the strongest terms. | als here are satisfied with | ion at Canton, where it is| stated British naval forces will r main to protect the shipping, which, | | for the first time since the Hong- | kong boycott was started, now be- ing earried on without mal»smuon‘: from the Canton strike pickets.
