TAPS SOUND OVER ROWS OF SAILOR HEROES IN WEST 'Died at His Post of Duty’ Is Epitaph on Burial Marker. By Tim.fi Special SAX PEDRO, Cal., June 17.—0n a broad field, high on a bluff overlooking the Pacific, silent thousands today witnessed the last solemn funeral rites of the U. S. S. Mississippi's dead. Forty-seven caskets rested in the center of the stadium. Bodies of one of the victims. Lieutenant Zellars. was claimed by relatives yesterday for separate funeral. Borne on the arms of 282 of their mates full dress uniform, they were taken to the center of the field and arranged in rows before the simple altar from which the memorial rites were read. Relatives arriving amid the hushed respect of these who shared <ieir losses were ushered to their places at one side of the field. Chopin’s March Shortly after 11 o’clock the esccrt inarched onto the field, as the massed band played Chopin's funeral march. Vice Admiral Henry A. Wiley, commanding the battle fleet in the absence of Admiral S. A. Robinson, was the first speaker. “The accident that so quickly snuffed out the lives of 48 of our best, found them at their posts," the admiral said. “Their last moments gave the most positive proofs of their courage and devotion. They died in line of duty; they gave up their lives as heroically as ever they could have in battle. There is but little consolation to us in our loss. We find some comfort, however, in the simple epitaph that will mark the resting place of each: 'Died at His Post of Duty.’ This means to us that the traditions of the service have been upheld. Our comrades died like man of war's men. They would not have asked for more.” Deep Respect Paid Rear Admiral W. V. Pratt, commander of battleship division Xo. 4, of which the Mississippi is a unit, followed with a stirring story of the tragedy, paying deep respect to the dead. After relating in dramatic fashion the lack of confusion and brave daring which followed the accident, he said: “To you who lie here at rest and know ye that no monarch, that no country, could bestow upon yo i such a badge of honor as God gave you whegi He took you in his arms and said: 'Well done, faithful servants, you died in service; you died at your posts of duty.’ “As I look at each of you, lying quietly in death, I can say with every mourner here: ‘There lies a man.’ ” “Jesus Lover of My Soul,” swelled forth as the band took up the old hymn and sent it out over tho' waters, heard even to the small turret of the Mississippi, riding calmly at the breakwaters end where death had struck the sailors down. Then followed in quick succession fleet chaplains, reading Protestant and Catholic funeral rituals. A crashing volley of rifles; another, and still another. Then sweetly, slowly, there came “taps.” FRENCH PREMIER WILL CARRY CUT DAWESPROGRAM Herriot in Message to Deputies Outlines New Ruhr Policy.

NON-RESIDENT INSANITY CASES BOTHER COUNTY Clerk Raises Point on Case of Persons From Other States, Marion County is taking care of persons suspected of insanity from other States. County Cleric Albert H. Losche. said today, aroused by a report of the county grand Jury that “would censure any county official'' who refuses to take action in teeing the insane are removed from the jail. “There are four now heid in Jail ! on v. -rrancy charges awaiting inI sanity inquests," said Losche, “and they are ali from outside Indiana. One is from- Louisville. He was put in April 26. Persons from other States cannot be kept in Indiana asylums. “Another is fr i Mississippi. He was arrested May 24. The third is a woman picked up June 12, and so far we can find no trace of her legal address, hut believe she is not frqpi i Indiana. The fourth is a Cleveland ] man, who has been in jail since I April 26.’’ The prisoners are held on | vagrancy charges in city court. InI quests can not be held until some | one, preferably a relative, files an i affidavit chaining insanity. Losche said. Police officers and others are reluctant to do so, because if the 1 person is found sane, tannage suits j may result. Losche said.

CHICAGO LIQUOR LAW VIOLATORS mm YEARS Booze Joints on Decline in Windj' City, U, S. District Attorney Says, CHICAGO, .Tune 17.—0f one man were required to serve the aggregate sentences handed nut to booze law violators in Chicago during the last year, he would have permanent hoard and lodged heehind the bars for 324 years, according to Edwin A. Olson, United States district attorney for Chicago. Booze law convictions in the twelve months, according to Olson’s statement, numbered 1,504, which gives him the basis for another statement that “prohibition enforcement is doing more than aggravating Chicago’s booze Icings—it is putting them out of business.” Only One Record The number of convictions in twelve months is hut one record that has been established by the prohibition enforcement department—an-other-is the record established in closing premises that houses liquor law violators. Records on property injunctions issued show a total of 636 were issued from May 1. 1923, to May, 1924. and that the property closed for one year by the court action has an aggregate value of $20,000,000. The list includes sixteen breweries in nineteen northern Illinois counties 'and the million-dollar De Jonghe Hotel, a popular hostelry in the heart of Chicago’s loop district. Olson hails the property injunction as his most effective weapon against the booze kings. It gives him a means of prosecution much more effective than criminal action and at the same time serves to keep property owners from accepting questionable tenants. Owners Frightened “They are not going to ruh rhe risk of having their property closed for an entire year for the sake of a few months rent paid by a booze runner or a basement distiller,” Olson said. , “In the last few months we have had fewer reports ’of booze joints than at any time since prohibition and I am confident that the next few months will see a still greater decline in complaints.”
MOO DRIVE DN TO PUT MAJORITY RULE INTO EFFECT 'Popular Propaganda 1 May Be Used at Democratic Convention, By FRAZER EDWARDS, Cnitfl Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Jujje 17.—The move —ls one develops—to smash the twothirds rule in the Democratic national convention here next week, may start with “popular propaganda." Those who look for a McAdoa move in this direction because with the rule abrogated McAdoo could more easily command the 550 votes necessary for a majority that would give the nomination, forecast this; At the appointed time before the balloting begins, McAdoo leaders in virtually every State will hegin del teing delegates with telegraphic demands for the abrogation of the rule. Leaders in the American Legion are said to be at the head of the movement to change the. rule. But the “popular propoganda" will come from rank and file Democrats as well. This demand is expected by the McAdoo forces to have a profound effect on the delegates. Unbiased observers concede that McAdoo will have in excess of 400 votes on the first ballot. With nearly 500 delegates uninstructed. the McAdoo managers believe their candidate can pick off more than enough to giv hlwi a majority in the early balloting. Governor A1 Smith of New York with approximately 300 votes and control of about 100 more in the hands of anti-McAdoo forces, holds the vote power so long as the twothirds rule remains in effect.
