fudge Pccora Realizes Ambition 5 Jr- - ’’ — . 11 1 .. ..j ’ ' -.,, "I .Judge Pecura I -1 j A» investigator for senate.

Bu /nternational llluatratcd Neta» . NEW YORK—lt’s often a good thing that childhood ambitions never materialize. Take, for example, the case of Ferdinand Pecora. Pecora never had the typical childish desire to become ■ street car motorman. or a policeman, or a railroad engineer. But be diit want to be a minister. If that ambition had worked out for him. New York today would be without the services of this brilliant lawyer In his new post as judge of the state supreme court The chances are, too, many never would have heard of Ferinand Pecora, who became a national figure w hen he served as counsel to the senate committee investigating practices of the nation’s banks in Washington. Family Poor A native-born Sicilian who came to the United States at the age of five, Pecora gave up hopes of becoming a minister while a youth because his family was so poor. He turned to Jaw. and once involved in that profession he set up another goal for himself. That goal, an ambition of longstanding, was to become a supreme court judge—the post he now ' occupies at the appointment of Governor Herbert H. Lehman of New York. Pecora has been associated w'Jh some branch of the legal profession for most of his adult life. For 11 years before he won a degree he worked as a law clerk. When, tn 1911, he received the degree, he Immediately plunged into the career that was to bring him fame in New York City, and later, throughout the on tire country. Once a lawyer, he entered politics with enthusiasm. He supported Theodore Roosevelt In the latter’s Bull Moose campaign of 1912, and became a Wilson Democrat in the race between Hughes and Wilson for the presidency in 1916. Crusader In 1917 tie took part In the local campaign for Charles I* Craig who Bluffton Psi Otcs Buy Oxygcnnaire Bluffton. Feb. 13.—8 y a unanimous vote of the members the j Bluffton chapter of Psi lota Xi determined at its meeting Monday ‘ night to purchase an Oxygehnaire | and present it to the ’Veils county hospital. The chapter had tried to get one I of the more than 20 put out by the) national sorority, at the instigation : of the doctors and hospital board, i but was not awarded one. It was - then determined to purchase one from there own charity fund. The I Oxygennaire will cost over S3OO. I o Methodist’s Board Will Meet Tonight — The regular weekly prayer! meeting and the monthly Sunday school board meeting of the Meth- 1 odist church will lie held at 7 o’clock tonight. Wilson Beery will have charge of the praise service, and W. Guy Brown will deliver the address, and preside over the ; business meeting. Restore Salaries To Federal Workers Washington. Feb. 13 — (UP) — President Roosevelt today signed «i it t resolution which restores from April 1 the remaining 5 per cent reduction in tihe salaries of federal employes and entailing expenditure of $10,000,000. Mr. Roosevelt warned, however, that the sum was not in budget estimat a and th ’t consideration should be given to methods by which govefliment revenues can be Increased to meet, this and any other new appropriations which tend to throw the r.gulir budget out cf balance. Originally, the President had set July 1 as tho date for the pay rc-

r:in a encewful rm e for comptroller of New York City. After that campaign Pecora accepted a miuar j position tn the district attorney's offlea where he distinguished himself ; as a fire-eating crusading prosecutor. Stepping up to the office of assistant district attorney, and later to ■ acting district attorney, Pecora ■ waged violent campaigns against 1 graft and corruption. He prosecuted William H. Anderson, former head I of the Anti-Saloon-league, and sent ) him to jail on charges of forgery. | He attacked and wiped out a milk trust which had been distributing Impure milk to babies. In 12 years he prosecuted more than 1.000 cases and obtained convictions in 80 per cent of them. Shelved as a Tammany candidate in 1929 for prosecutor in favor of an elderly judge, Pecora ran for the office in 1933 on the Recovery party ticket but was defeated. $7,5C0 a Year * While associated with the New York prosecutor's office, he was 1 receiving $7,500 a year. It was no financial attraction, then, for Pecora I when he was invited to go to Washington as counsel for the senate banking committee at a salary of ) (255 a month. Nevertheless, he accepted the ■ position and conducted an Investigation that rocked the country. Thoroughly acquainted with the ins and outs of high finance, the grizzled investigator faced many of the 1 nation’s most prominent bankers, including J. P. Morgan, Otto H. ■ Kahn, Clarence Dillon and Richard | E. MltcheH. As a result of the searching inquiry, considerable legislation intended for reforms In banking prac- 1 tices was passed by congress. Pecora also was made a member of the federal securities and exchange commission. A fiery speaker, Pecora punctuates b.ls arguments with forcefulness and enthusiasm. He is short and stocky and owns a pair of flashing, dark eyes. Now 53, his wiry dark hair U becoming streaked with gray. Istoration. Congress, however, in disregarding his recommendation, inI curred the additiorul charge. The 616,Ob",000 is wtiat will be paid out - from April 1 to July 1 and for which I no provision was made in tire- regu-1 1 lar budget. 0 1 Man Is Sentenced For Burning Barn Blufft n, Ind., Feb. 13—(UP)-] I Harry Clin’9, 45, was aentenced toi 'serve a term of one-to-10 years in I the state prison when the pleaded ■ I guilty to a charge of second degree] | Arson when brought before Judge I J.

The cost is a little more than a single help. But your druggist is authoriied to guarantee it, so it costsnothing if it fails to bring you quick relief. Coughs are danger signals.
