DOLEFUL TALE, MATES, ABOUT SEA ‘MILKMAID' Deckhand Jones Spins Yarn of Woe Regarding Hitch as Calves’ Nursegirl. Jf 'l I nitiit Press SAN FRANCISCO, April B.—lt's a stormy night in the crow's nest, maties and Deckhand Jones of the sea-going Manulani has a doleful tale to tell. Man and boy. he's sailed in niast and sailed in steam, but never before was he nursemaid to a bunch of bawling, blasted beeves. "I’ve harpooned whales by the northern lights and I've sawed off busted masts* in a south seas typhoon,” Deckhand Jones sadly sard, brushing aside quick tears. 'l’ve fit Chinese pirates and never no complaints from Sailor Jones. ‘ But scupper me for a landlocked Job if I ever again play wet nurse for a dairy herd on the high seas.” The Matson freight Manulani stood out off the Golden Gate for Honolulu, Deckhand Jones profanely explained. Foghorn Atwecn Decks "My rheumatiz hurt and I had a hunch I shouldn’t sail.” he continued. “But times is hard, so there I was. “First I suspicioned wrong was when I heard a foghorn between decks. "So I goes up to the mate. “ ‘Mate,’ I says, ‘unless my ears Is a mite deceivin’ I hears foghorns atwecn decks.” “ ‘Mister’ sez he to me, ‘them aint no foghorns. You leave these here decks be and go down there.’ “So I goes down. "There was thirty-two cows and a spotted bull. “So I goes back up. " ‘Mister mate,’ said I, ‘Them’s thirty-two cows and a spotted bull down there. Man an ‘boy I’ve done my work, but I ain’t no seagoin’ cowboy.’ Sailor Jones Made Milkmaid " ‘Mister,’ says he, ‘if you ain’t no cowboy now, you’ll be one soon. Now get down there, or do I have to boot you down? "So I goes down. "It was late that night when the first calf was born. Then I goes off watch. "When I comes back on, they was three more. So I goes up to the mate. “ ‘Mister,’ I says to him, ‘they’s four new calves down there, and I ain’t no nurse.’ ‘“Mister,’ says he to me, ‘you go down an’ tend to them calves, and milk the cows.’ “So I goes down. "There was five calves by then, and I gets me some help. “When we stood off Diamond Head they was twelve calves, an’ a better milkmaid than Sailor Jones you never see . .

HOOVER CHARGED WITH HIDING MOONEY FACTS President Voiced Belief in Innocence, Says Walter Liggett. It}/ Scripps-Howard .V ewspaper Alliance WASHINGTON, April B.—Declaring that he has “positive information that President Hoover privately has expressed the opinion that both men (Mooney and Billings) were innocent,” Walter W. Liggett, former editor of "Plain Talk,” charges that the Wickersham commission’s experts’ report on these cases was suppressed as the result of pressure from the White House. The charge is made in Liggett’s new book, “The Rise of President Hoover,” and is being discussed by ■ mators and representatives “on ihe hill” as shedding light on the attempted suppress’on of the sensational charges of lawlessness in the Mooney-Billings trials contained in the Chaffee-Stern-Pollak report on lawlessness in law inforcement. Liggett’s charges of White House intervention are denied by friends of Wickersham, who say other members of the commission expressed displeasure at inclusion of the lengthy report in the investigations of the committee headed by Judge W. S. Kenyon.

Artistic Arrangement Costs Nothing More at

BY BEN STERN AS members of the Indiana Republican Editorial Association come into the city today for their meeting, they probably will see Big Jim Watson with his arm around the shoulders of Little Arthur Robinson and the latter with his arm encircling the waist of the former. A pretty picture—just like Ihe Gold Dust Twins, but it's only art —lt doesn't mean anything. The jealousy with which a senator regards his colleague is inherent, traditional, and, according to some, even natural. In the affair of Watson and RobI inson, it is the latter who is consumed by the "green-eyed monster,” as the movie titles have it. It is the natural jealousy of a petty politician for a big, lumbering, genial, good-hearted chap, who, no matter how bad and silly his mistakes and actions may be, is at least not small in his contacts and | thinking. nun Aside from this, however. Jim as ' the senior senator and G. O. P. I leader, to use an inelegant phrase, “hogs the limelight.” And Little Arthur doesn’t like being obscured in his shadow. Little Arthur would like to be the “senior senator” and would give an eye tooth to be G. O. P. leader, which heaven forefend. More than anything else, Indiana’s great mistake wants the limelight. Little Arthur, they tell me, regards himself as a child of destiny and, ludicrously enough, a second Albert Beveridge. To assert his independence, from time to time, he gets off the Republican reservation end casts a vote ! with the progressives, but never on I any important issue. Outwardly, Big Jim and Little Arthur are pals. Actually, they are i bound together ony by “the cohesive power of public plunder.” The casual observer will never guess the mutual feeling of distrust. The little fellow refers to Jim as “the old master,” but when he does so there is more affectation than affection in his tone. He tills how all the boys have to go down the line this year to see that the services of the “.old master” are saved for the senate and nation —then “confidentially,” he predicts that Watson will run several thousand votes behind Hoover in Indiana. Jim believes that it is no longer good politics to play tne Ku-Klux Kian game, but Little Arthur still thinks it is a burning issue. From time to time the respective county chairmen suggest non-Pro-testants for federal appointees. So long as they are regular in their Republicanism, Jim doesn’t care what church they attend. Not so with Little Arthur. And the result is, the record reveals, that not since Robinson came to the senate has a non-Protestant been named to a federal job in the state. The best thing that can be said about the pair is that Robinson is the only man in the senate who really makes Jim Watson lock like a statesman. Finds SI,OOO Ring in Junk It !l United Press ST.

‘RICH AGAINST poor: issue in TAX BILL FIGHT Levies on Wealthy, Even Higher Than Those Fought by Mills, Asked. BY LYLE C. WILSON I'nifed Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, April B.—The senate tax dispute is developing into a struggle of rich man against poor man. Progressive Republicans and Democrats are forming a "poor man’s coalition” to seek levies on the wealthy even higher than those which Treasury Secretary Ogden L. Mills condemned as semi-SocialisUc and virtually confiscatory. Mills, leading the battle against higher taxes on the rich, has a tremendous fortune. His yacht is new. large and luxurious. As part owner of the Wheatley stable, he combines sport with statesmanship. Norris Poor Man’s Agent One-of his leading senate antagonists in the controversy over economic theories is Senator George W. Norris (Rep., Neb.)—a streetcar rider, who probably has not been on a private yacht in all his life. The secretary says the 45 percent maximum estate tax in the revenue bill must come down to 25 per cent, or the capitalistic system will be imperiled. Ncrris says the rate must go up. Likewise with surtaxes on large incomes. Back-benchers of both parties are organizing to turn out the pockets of some multi-miliionaires, despite insistence of their leaders that little revenue is available in the high brackets because depression has cut incomes. Norris would give “very liberal exemptions” from inheritance taxes to permit families to be provided for “even in luxury.” Want Surtaxes Up "But after that,” he said, "I would impose* high taxes—a rate between 75 and 100 per cent in excess of $100,000,000 would be about right.” Senator Tom Connally (Dem., Tex.) is preparing an amendment for a maximum surtax of 50 per cent on incomes above $3,000,000. Senator George McGill (Dem., Kan.) said he favored 70 to 80 per cent levies on incomes above $1,000,000. The now in the bill is 40 per cent on everything over SIOO,OOO. Progressives agree they have a worthy foeman in Mills. Alfred E. Smith once described him as the ablest man he ever campaigned against in New’ York. Smith beat Mills for the governorship.
