PRESIDENT URGES ELIMINATING AL POLITICS ON TAX (Continued from First Page) must not be allowed to stand in the | way of his administrative leader- | ship.” Modification of the Volstead act will not come during the 70th con- | gress, Mr. Copeland avowed but| added “the sentiment of the people has been crystallized and from now on the tendency of each succeeding congress will be more toward modi- fication than its predecessors.” Liquor is Real Issue “The party that doesn’t take a de- cided stand on prohibition in 1928 and in favor of what the majority | wants s certain to pass out of the plcture,” he asserted. ‘ Referring to the seating of Sena- tors-elect Vare and Smith, who! figure prominently in the primary slush fund investigations, Senator | Copeland said “they will never hal seated. It would be a crime agafnst | decency to do 0. The senate will not for a moment allow its seats !0‘ be auctioned, and, as was the case | in Penns: nia to the lowest | worst bidder.” Preparing For Fight ‘Washington, Nov. § (#»—Senatorial | lines were forming today for a po- tential contest over the seating in the 70th congress of Senato lect | William §. Vare, republican, Penn- sylvania. A personal Inquiry into the Penn- | sylvania situation is under way by Senator Norris, republican, Ne-| braska, who campaigned prior to the election on behalf of Willlam B. Wilson, the democratic candidate. Senator Blease, democrat, South | Carolina, announced that he would vote to seat both Vare and Smith, republican, Illinois, unless it could be shown that their election had been effected by fraud or corruption, | and Senator David Reed, republican, | Pennsylvania, reiterated his inten-| tion to vote to seat his colleague on the ground that republican expendi- | tures in the Keystone state had been legal, honest and necessary. In Philadelphia the entire election board of one division and the demo- cratic inspector of another where no | votes had been credited to Mr. Wil- son in the unofficial returns were or- dered to appear today in“the. elec- tion court to explain discrepancies. On the hecls of the opinion of Senator Borah, republican, Idaho. that the seventeenth constitutional amendment empowered con control congresslonal prim well as general elections to them of “corruption”, came nouncement from the Missouri home of Senator James A. Reed, democrat, | and chairman of the semate cam- palgn funds committee, that this committee can be called, under the | senator resolution which resulted in | its appointment, to investigate the | Pennsylvania general elections it it can be shown that because of moneys contributed or promis ballots were miscounted or fraud- | ulent ballots were permitted to be | cast, or that votes were hought. Norris' Stand In announcing his personal quiry Into the Pennsylvania elec- tions, Senator Norris said that he | would not hesitate to request the | Reed committee to investigate the | elections if facts were found to war- rant such action. He reiterated his charge that the returns in Philadel- phia disclosed that machine control methods had been used there and that the record disclosed that no | honest election had been held or that the honest results had been withheld. In lieu of a committee investiga- tion, however, Senator James Reed | suggested that the proper and more | effective method of getting the facts in the case would be a contest in the senate, disputing Mr. Vare's right to | his scat. By this method Mr. Wil- | son, the defeated candidate, would file a protest and a committee would be appointed from the senate | to investigate all charges. ° in- St. Lucie, Florida, Nov. 9 (P—| Senator-Elect Willlam S. Vare of | Pennsylvania left today tor Wash- | tngton. He declined to comment onl any plans he may have for defend- | ing his scat in the 70th congress should a contest be made. Mrs. Vare accompanied her lms-’ band, who has been spending a few days here at his winter home. After g an emphatic denial of the | charges brought against him last | week by Senator Norris of Nebras- ! ka, Mr. Vare last Friday refused to make any further comment on | Pennsylvania politics, saying he was | tired from a strenuous campaign and desired to “be let alone.” | The reason for the decision to re- turn to Washington was not an- nounced.

To bring out whether the heavy | grasping of an object makes a| stronger fingerprint than tho light | grasping of a calling card, McClrter, | who is the oldest defense lawyer | concerned In the case; dropped a | card on the floor before the jury | several times and picked it up re- peatedly, apparently to let the jury itself decide whether the expert’s | statement was logical.

Willie Seems Happy. | Willie Stevens was unusually gen- | ial when he entered court. He ex- | tended his hand-shaking even to the | dignified Robert H. McCarter, for- | mer attorney general, and chief of defense counsel, who did not appear over pleased at being interrupted in | | his hasty pexusal of papers prepara- \ tory -to tie opening. The sharp | | tongue of Alexander Simpson, spn-‘ cial prosecutor, cut a new descrip- | tion of McCarter today. \w‘mer\ chuckled when he thought Simpson failed to establish a point he was endeavoring to press in re- | direct examination of Schwartz. “I suppose I gouldn’t try this case | without those chuckles,” said Simp- | “Sergeant Buzfuz seems to be “Omit the personalitles,” ordered | Judge Jarker.

Defense argued that this testi- mony could not be presented unless preceded by proof that the condition of the ground had not been changed in the intervening forty-four days. It is the defense contention that the prints could have been made by an animal belonging to any one of the thousands of sightseers, who throng- | ed the spot four years ago and car- rl«d away the crabapple tree, bit by | bit as well as gmass, bushes and every slightest article which could be termed a souvenir, Schwartz testified that he had found the two cedar trees and the stump, at which Mrs Gibson as- serted she tied her mule, and that the hoof-prints were nearby. The court refused to let the state draw from the witness the reason | why he quit his investigation at the scene of the crime after only one day's work. Card Causes Clash. A calling card of the Rev. Mr. Hall's, bearing no finger prints and which Schwartz sald he got and kept as a souvenir, was the cause of another of the frequent clashes tween Simpson and McCarter. Simpson, in contending that a ques- !tion he had asked should stand, said that the defense attorney intimated that Schwartz had concealed evi- dence and in effect charged the fingerprint expert with mal!easa,gce In office. Simpson, in an effort to cftvvct the defense’s move to discredit the im- portance of a calling card alleged to bear the imprint of Willie Stevens’ ieft index finger, put to the witness in re-direct examination, questions to show the whereabouts of the card while in Schwartz's possession. What did you do with the card ile in your possession,” Simpson asked. photographed it and then com- tingerprints in our collection to see if any of them matched it,” said the witness, Yesterday Schwartz had said that there are fingerprints of 8,000 crim- inals and suspects in the Jerscy City police department.

Simpson then asked the witness: “Suppose this card were found prop- ped up against a tuft of grass or against the feet of Mr. Hall and it was found two days later and then put in with other cards, would it erase the finger prints?” “It would not,” replied the wit- ness. “Is there any definite time prints must be made?"” “No. “What is the longest time you ever knew a print to be made of a finger print, after it was made?” “Nine months.” McCarter, taking the witness again for cross-examination, asked “you sald a finger print lasts nine months?" “Why it may last ten years,” re- plled the witness. Quoting a book the prosecutor asked Schwartz it he read this book as an authority. “I have not,” said the witness, giv- ing a contemptious shrug as though he disliked such a book authority. Simpson asked the witness who had done more than any other man to bring about the w of finger prints in the criminal courts of America. Schwarts Ts Modest. “T think I can say I have had a great deal to do with it,” said Schwartz. He also conceded that Joseph A. Faurot, formerly of the New York city police force, also deesrved a share of the laurels for this work. Faurot is one of the three finger print experts being relied upon by the state in its efforts to place Willie Sevents at the scene of the murder. Schwartz left the witness stand after paying the compliment to himself and Faurot. EYESTRAIN Causes HEADACHES Our Glasses Eliminate Them. Thorough Eye Examinations Optometrist Henry F.

Excavations have revealed traces of inhabitants, who, scientists be- lleve, were blotted out of existence by some cataclysm of nature. Sccimen: of weapons and tools, made of jasper and agate, have been discovered, strewn in profusion about tepee circles, in which the “lost ruce” housed itself. Unlike th ygsual Indian relics’ finds, the agricultural tool and cooking uten- sil predominate over the weapons of battle and chase. Thinks Comedy Parts an Item in Screen Success Los Angeles, Nov. 5 (/) — Cecil B. De Mille, motion picture pro- ducer, is a believer in actors and actresses beginning at the bottom and working up. He thinks “three years in comedies” necessary to fit aspirants for parts in screen dramas, “It I could haev my way every actor or actress entering motion pictures would be forced to lmna three years in comedy before tempting a straight dramatic phota- play,” sald De Mille. “Little things they learn in come- dies go a long way toward success.™ Too many free passes and the large number of ‘“deadheads” are responsible for a deficit of $3,900,- 000 on Australlan railroads for the first six months of 1926, The DRESS GOODS SHOP 400 — MAIN STREET — 400 THANKSGIVING SALE 81x90 in.
