SOCIAL WORKER SCORES D. A. R. FOR BLACKLISTS Dr. Valeria Parker Charges Organization Hostile to Liberal Thought. i! I nit'd Press NEW YORK. Feb. 10.—Dr. Valeria H. Parker, prominent In the field of social service and active in many national women’s organizations, today revived the blacklist charges against the Daughters of the American Revolution and leveled many new accusations at that society. In a letter to the national headquarters at Washington announcing her resignation. Dr. Parker charged the D. A. R. with retarding the cause of world peace by supporting large armament programs in congress and with unjustified antagonism toward women’s organizations campaigning for disarmament. Dr. Parker declared the D. A R. is controlled "by persons who are not in sympathy with that liberty of thought and action for which the American Revolutionists fought and bled.’’

Out of Sympathy "I have not been in sympathy with the organization policies for several years. In spite of this lack of sympathy, I continued to hold membership, hoping that other members holding similar views might join in opposing such use of the organization.” She said she found, however, “no possible opportunity for frank expression on the part of members who. like myself, deplore the present situation with reference to certain activities—in fact, protest has in several instances resulted in expulsion.” Dr. Parker was a member of the Ruth Wyllys chapter of the D. A. R. at Hartford. Conn., and said she had advised that chapter of her action. She was president of the National Council of Women four years and has served as director of the national League of Women Voters. National Congress of Teachers and Parents and the National W. C. T. U. Deplores Attitude Regarding the alleged blacklist of persons and organizations which the D. A. R. considered unpatriotic. Dr. Parker said: "The denial of circulation of the lists in the face of generally known facts does not give me confidence in the administration of the national society of the D. A. R.” The list contained names of such prominent persons as Harry Elmer Barnes, Clarence Darrow, David Starr Jordan, Irving Fisher, Norman Hapgood. Dudley Field Malone, R.abbi Stephen S. Wise and many others. Dr. Parker also pointed out that many organizations were on the lists, including these in which she has been active.

SAVES 5 FROM DEATH IN FIRE Smashes in Door to Rescue Trapped Relatives. Bu United Press CHICAGO, Feb. 10.—Doing the right thing at the crucial moment enabled Felix Mizerka to save five lives when fire swept a frame apartment house Sunday night, but a sixth person, an elderly woman, was suffocated. Mizerka found the hallway to his third floor apartment ablaze. He wrapped his 7-month-old son in a dampened quilt, handed him to his wife and told her where to run to escape. Then Mizerka telephoned the fire department. In another apartment. Mizerka’s father-in-law. Jacob Koruba, 75; his wife, Sophie, 72, and John Kisterski, a visitor, w r ere trapped after they had twisted off the key trying to get out.

Another victim of suffocation in another home was Frank Wirag, 12 days old. His mother forgot to light the gas under water she w ? as heating for his bath.

STATE AID SCHOOL DATA TOO MEAGER

Trustees’ Reports Proved Slight Information, Chasey Says. Questionnaires which Governor Harry G. Leslie sent to all township trustees in state aid districts will be of little assistance to the Governor in his investigation of the state aid situation, it was learned in Leslie’s office today. Two hundred seventeen of the questionnaires, out of the 242 sent out, had been returned and the information in them was said to be meager. L. O. Chasey, secretary to the Governor, said the questionnaires would be “practically useless.” Meanwhile, State Superintendent Roy P. Wisehart continued a check of the schools, to determine how’ many have balances in their state aid funds. “More than 170 have been investigated. Wisehart said, "and seventeen of them were found to have balances ranging from $316 to $12.119.” It was expected the check would be completed this week, and indications were that about onetenth of the schools will have their appropriations cut because of existing balances. Schools having balances equal to or greater than the amount of their school aid appropriation w r ill receive no money, Wisehart said, and the balances in the remaining schools will be considered when appropriations are made. Governor Leslie today reiterated his promise that teachers in bankrupt districts would receive the full amount of back salary due them. SOUGHT AFTER ATTACK Farmer Is Charged With Striking Brother-in-Law on Head.

The future hope of the little countries lies in sweeping away boundary lines, uniting governments and working for the common good.”

PRESIDENT INVADES FISHING GROUNDS

Puts Out to Sea Off Coast of Florida in Quest of Finny Monsters. Bu Unit'd Press LONG KEY, Fla.. Feb. 10.—President Hoover’s fishing party arrived at 6:20 a. m. today. It still was dark when the chief executive’s train rolled into the station and the Hoover party remained on board for some time before detraining. Breakfast had been prepared for the presidential party, aboard the houseboat Saunterer, which for the next week will be the home of Mr. and Mrs. Hoover and their party. A group of vacationists greeted the presidential train on arrival here. Officers of the Saunterer and Kilkenny, commerce department’ houseboat, which will carry’ Lau.vnee Richey, Mr. Hoover’s secretary, and other members of Mr. j Hoover’s immediate party, forecast a j clear day to inaugurate the President’s fishing vacation. The President and Mrs. Hoover left their car at 7:30 a. m. and walked across the palm-studded island to where the Saunterer was docked. They paused at the wharf to greet the officers o fthe Kilkenny and chatted for a moment about previous vacations on that craft when Mr. Hoover was secretary of commerce. The Hoovers then ascended the short gang-plank of the Saunterer. As they boarded the boat the President's ensign, a four-starred blue banner bearing the great seal of the United States, was run up on the mast. Mr. and Mrs. Jeremiah Milbank of New York, owners of the boat, greeted the Hoovers and accompanied them aboard. They will not go on the fishing trip. THIN. BLUE LINE SLOWLY FADING Union Veterans in State Less Than Thousand. The long, blue line that stretched away from Indiana far into Dixie in ’6l, has burned slowly away until today it is a mere wisp of string that has but a few years to endure. Twenty-five thousand strong in Indiana in 1889, the Grand Army of the Republic, Union Civil war veterans, has dwindled to less than a thousand members. Almost one-third of its enrollment answered final roll call between Jan. 1, 1929, and Jan. 1, 1930, according to report of A. B. Crampton, state G. A. R. adjutant-gen-eral, to national headquarters at the close of last year. Three years, if the ratio of death in its ranks prevails, will see the last page turned on the story of the brotherhood of survivors of the hosts that followed Sherman to the sea and Grant into Richmond. Last year there were more than thirteen hundred G. A. R. members in the state: now there are 940. | Three hundred and fifty-nine vet- | erans died in 1929. Others moved away from Indiana. It was Crampton's first annual report in which less than a thousand names were inscribed on the national roll.

M’HIE RESIGNS FROM INDIANA POLICE FORCE Ex-Assistant Chief Target of Criticism While in Office. George McHie of Hammond, assistant state police chief, today resigned, effective at once. The letter to Otto G. Fifield, secretary of state, declared McHie is res'gning in order to enter business in Hammond. McHie has been the center of a storm of criticism since his appointment one year ago. He first was criticised for his investigations r.l a murder and bank robbery in Angola. Probe Fruitless He began the investigation with a blare of publicity which hampered the probe and resulted in an acquittal for Charles Zimerman, then sheriff, who was indicted, it was charged. An attempt to link McHie with the protection of Chicago rum runners operating through Indiana also was made, but later was dropped. Booze Changes It was charged during the investigation of the St. Valentine’s day murders in Chicago that two truckloads of whisky and beer left a Detroit brewery for the Chicago gang in Chicago Feb. 10.

I HUGHES OLDEST CHIEF JUSTICE OF HIGH COURT Successor to Taft Will Take Tribunal Post Feb. 24. EdUor’sN'otr—Following I* the first of a series of articles on Charles Evans Hughes and the chief justiceship. Bu Unit'd Press WASHINGTON. Feb. 10.—The chief justice of the United States is "the most important judicial officer in the world,” according to Charles Evans Hughes, shortly to that office. Hughes, a “lawyer’s lawyer,” former associate justice, ex-Governor of New York, and unsuccessful candidate for the presidency, will assume the heavy black robes of the court’s chieftain, Feb. 24. Senate confirmation of -President Hoover's nomination of Hughes, to replace Wdliam Howard Taft, virtually is certain. The supreme court’s decisions are law, and the court’s rules guide ev- i ery legislative body in the nation, ! and some outside. The pope of Rome, in an encyclical the other day, cited a supreme court decision. The court, presided over by the 88-year-old Oliver Wendell Holmes, acting chief justice, now is in recess, working on pending cases. So Hughes probably will not take the oath of office until it reconvenes Feb. 24, and not until then will his $20,500 salary start. The chief justice socially quarrels with the Vice-President and the Speaker of the house for the rarlc next to the President. The executive, legislative and judicial branches are co-ordinate and mutually independent, in law, but ranking can not be made to conform to the Constitution at formal dinners. Hughes will be the eleventh chief j justice. He will be the oldest me.n: ever to assume that office. An unofficial "duty” of consider- j able interest that goes with Hughes’ job is that of attracting the thousands of tourists who visit the capitol daily. The capitol guides hope that with his imposing forehead and famous bushy beard, neatly parted in the middle, and his famous, almost successful, presidential campaign in 1916, Hughes will prove as successful Chief Justice Taft was. The appointment, however, will remove Hughes from the frequent contacts with the public which he has enjoyed in recent years. Hughes is in good health, and should have at l§ast ten years of active life ahead. The oldest man ever to sit on the supreme bench, Oliver Wendell Holmes, now is twenty years older than he.

Till REM relieved two coughs Albert Roessler, Jr., of 421 E. Ormsby Ave., Louisville, Ky., and his sister Lynw ood, both had bad coughs at the same time. They had both caught cold and were coughing so that there was hardly any sleep for anyone in the family. No matter what their mother tried, the coughing continued until a REM ad turned her steps to Lichtefeld’s Drug Store at Preston and Ormsby. She brought home a bottle of REM and discovered “relief was very quick for them both. After just a few doses of REM, they stopped coughing and started getting their rest at night. ’’ One reason for REM'a remarkable results is the special ingredient it contains that isn't found in ordinary cough syrups. Insist on REM—every druggist has it.

True to Life Maybe Sir Harry Wants Interest on Dimes of John D.

SIR HARRY LAUDER, international president of the Society for Conservation of the Dime, stepped from a Big Four train at Union station here Saturday on arrival for his two concerts at the Murat theater. “I’m here on my annual far-r----e-wee! tour-r-r-,” he burred. “I’m nae sae goot as Sar-r-a Ber-r-r-n----hardt. She haed for-rty-seven far-r-e-weel tour-r-rs; this is ainly mae sivinth.” While Harry alighted from the train a Negro porter arranged his luggage and stood waiting, obviously expectant, a hand ready to outstretch. Sir Harry turned upon him and grasped the hand that was ready for the tip. "Mon, ye ser-r-ved mae weel,” he said, as he shook the porter’s hand. “Ye deser-r-ve muckle frae me. but I find the only dimes I hae at hand I got frae Mis-ter Rockefeller-r. I would nae part wi ’em.” He loosed the Ronald tartan shawi, unbuttoned his overcoat, the only evident garment of American tailoring, and manipulated the locking device on the burglar-proof purse, which was chained to the girdle of his kilt. He dug out the dimes and displayed them. “Mis-ter Rockefeller-r gae mae one fae maesel’ and one fae each ai mae r-relatives. I dinna tell the mon that I dinna hae any, except mae niece. He gae mae four-r. For-rty cents. It’s the fir-rst money I ever got faer naethin'—and the vera best.”
