AL CAPONE TO ENTER ATLANTA ‘PEN’ TONIGHT Gangster in Ugly Mood on Long Ride to Federal Prison. SCORNFUL OF CHICAGO ‘Who'll Stop Kidnaping Racket. Protect Business?’ He Asks. RV ROBERT T. LOUGH RAN I mlrd Pm. Miff trrpndrnt ABOARD DIXIE FLYER. EN ROUTE TO ATLANTA. Ga May 4. —AI Capone. gangster who held himself mightier than the law, will enter Atlanta penitentiary tonight to start serving the eleven-year j sentence imposed upon him lor income tax fraud. In an uglv mood, the swart, scarfared criminal traveled southward teda’’ guarded by a ring of heavily armed United States marshals aboard the Dixie Fiver, due at Atlanta at. 6:50 p. m. Nervous as the proverbial cat over the ride which is taking him to at least seven and a half years in the Atlanta prison, with time off for good behavior, Capone tried to mask his chagrin with feeble humor and incessant conversation. F.' cn the handcuffs on his wrists and the leg-irons which were snapped on when he lay down to sleep failed to dispel the prison-pale gangster’s grandiose manner. What'll They Do? In a style reminiscent of his scornful proffers of aid to peace officers in the heyday of nls underworld dominance. Capone said: "All right, let. them send me to Atlanta. Well see how Chicago gets p ong wit hout me. "Who will they go to now when they want to stop the kidnaping racket? • Who’s going to give protection to business now that I’m gone?' The bulky 265-pound Capone shared an upper berth with Vito Morici. a 26-year-old auto theft suspect en route for trial in Florida.; The other berths of the compartment were occupied by deputies, one standing guard throughout the night. Others were within easy rail outside the door. The trip to Atlanta ends Capone’s six months in jail while his attorneys vainly appealed against, the sentence imposed by United States District Judge James H. Wilkerson after the gangster was convicted of five counts of tax evasion last October. The sentence of Capone was upheld Monday by the United States j supreme court and gave United States District Attorney George E. Q Johnson, who instituted the prosecution of gangsters on income tax charges, a score of seven convictions and on acquittals. Sit* With Guards Capone was escorted swiftly to the train from his cell at Cook rounty Jail. Chicago, shortly before It pulied out at 10:30 Tuesday night. He was taken directly to the compartment where he sat with Morici and three guards behind a locked door until the train pulled out of the station. More than twenty prohibition agents, secret service men. and police guarded the car until it reached Chicago Heights, Til., when the guard was reduced to ten men. ‘l'm through with politicsthrough with the rackets—and all that stuff.” he announced, shaking out of the lethargy, as reporters appeared. “I’m going down to Atlanta and do my term. When I get out I’m going into the financial business.” Capone remained in his berth when the train taking him to Atlanta paused at Evansville, Ind.. early today. Evansville police were at the station to preserve order. Only a small crowd gathered. The flyer was transferred from the Chicago is Eastern Illinois railroad to the Louisville is Nashville as it dipped into the south. LEVIATHAN GOES HOME u. S. Ship. Once the Yaterland.

END?—OR A DOOR? Ingersoll Rests With Heroes

BY HARRY FERGUSON I'nltrd PrfM Rt*Pf ARLINGTON NATIONAL CEMETERY. Va.. May 4.—ln Arlington National cemetery today the ashes of Robert Ingersoll. great, orator and agnostir of nineteenth century America, were committed to what he himself once called “the tongueless silence of the dreamless dust..’’ Noted men stepped forward in the glittering May sunshine to bespeak his praise, and. in so doing, recalled how often Ingersoll had performed the same service at the graveside of others.

They recalled, lor instance, his i eulogies of Walt Whitman and Roscoe Conkling. and that most famous one of all, spoken in this same city fifty years ago and nowknown as "Oration at the Grave of a Child. - ’ "We know not whether the grave is the end of this life or the door to another: whether if this existence is our night-time, there is not somewhere else a dawn. Every cradle asks us ‘Whence?’ and every coffin ‘Whither?’ and again we are face to face with the great mystery that shrouds this world. Over the desert of death the Sphinx gazes forever, but never speaks." Friends brought his ashes from New York where his wife had kept them until hrr death in 1923. and today her remains were buried with his. Interment in Arlington cemetery was possible because Ingersoll served with distinction throughout the Civil war as a colonel of cavalry. a a a SOME saw in today s ceremony I an odd twist in fate that this man who devoted the best, years of his li> to attacking such a fundamental American institution as the Bible should come to rest at last, in a grave that will become one of the chief shrines of America's valhalla. Speakers today were almost as eloquent as Ingersoll himself. Charles Edward Russell said Ingersoll fought "with the three shafts of reason, wit and eloquence. and with these he set the human soul free; he believed it wag better to think wrong than not to think at all.’’ Senator Royal Copeland of New- York praised Mrs. Ingersoll as "a constant companion in peace and war.’’ Then the urn was lowered Into the grave, and twenty-one guns boomed across the Virginia hills. ana BUT no speaker noted that several paces from Ingersol's grave was the tomb of another famous orator. William Jennings Bryan, who died in defense of all the theories Ingersoll attacked. Perhaps no two Americans ever were more dissimilar, for they were alike only in that both had the power of giving wings to words. Bryan w-as a believer. Ingersoll a skeptic: Bryan was a pacifist, Ingersoll a soldier; Bryan was a Democrat Ingersoll a Republican. But today the same sod blankets them, and In the dusk of every’ tomorrow the same sunset gun will salute them both. GEORGIA OFFICIAL DEAD Colonel George Napier, AttorneyGeneral.

GARNER VOTE LEAD GROWING j IN CALIFORNIA Startling Upset Scored by Texan in Apparent Defeat of Roosevelt. SMITH RUNNING THIRD Speaker’s Victory Likely to Muddy Political Waters, Say Party Leaders. Bn f nitfd Vm m SAN FRANCISCO. May 4. Speaker John N. Garner of Texas took a commanding lead over Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt today in the contest for California’s forty-four delegates to the Democratic national convention. Complete returns from 6.959 of the state’s 10.211 precincts at 9:45 a. m.. gave: Garner. 168.374; Roosevelt. 136.959; Alfred E. Smith.. 118.721. President. Herbert Hoover unopposed in the Republican preference had polled a popular vote of 501.985. Garner was supported by William Gibbs McAdoo and William Randolph Hearst, publisher. Garner Aid* Claim Victory Smith, polling heavily in San Francisco and northern California districts, cut. deeply in territory w’hich normally would have gone to ! Roosevelt. Garner supporters were claiming victory, declaring the Speaker's lead of 29,000 over Roosevelt, his nearest competitor, probably wuold increase as dry southern California counties reported. Although Roosevelt and Smith supporters refused to concede Garner victory, political observers pointed out that his lead steadily was increasing, and that, an upset, with almost four-fifths of the state i reported, was unlikely. Many southern California districts, McAdoo wields a big influence, remained to report, and it was pointed out that these return* will swell Garner’s total. Startling Sate l’p*et Smith beat both Garner and Roosevelt badly in metropolitan San Francisco. His incursions into other avowedly wet centers helped to swell his : total, but It spurred rather than hampered Garner's chances because' it cut deeply into the Roosevelt figures. The apparent result was a startling political upset. The state, with the exception of certain southern California districts, was exI pected to swing to Roosevelt, with Smith probably the runner-up. In Los Angeles, Mayor John C. Potter successfully staved off a recall move by decisively defeating several candidates who aspired to his office.

Waters Are Muddied By t niled Pratt WASHINGTON, May 4.—Leading house Democrats today were in agreement that victory of Speaker John N. Garner in the California presidential primaries considerably would muddy the political waters. While none were willing to say that Governor Franklin D. Roose- j veil of New- York definitely w-ould be -‘stopped.” they agreed that Garner would have a definite say in the convention. Gamer himself was reticent concerning his strong showing in the j Pacific coast state. "Seriously. I’m not- paying any attention to this presidential thing,” j he said. Hoover Wins South Dakota Representative John McDuffie, Democratic w-hip, hailed the Gamer victory as “a strong showing for | a man who is not a candidate.” McDuffie, as did many other j prominent Democrats, expressed the 1 hope that the party convention would not result in a disastrous deadlock. President Hoover virtually was assured of South Dakota’s eleven delegates to the Republican national convention, from returns of | Tuesday’s primary. Republican dele- j gates headed by Royal Johnson and pledged to the President had a lead of more than six thousand votes, with one-third of the state's precincts reported. Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt w-on the Democratic * delegation without opposition. Norbeck Renominated Renomination of Senator Peter Norbeck (Rep.i and Congressman C. A. Christopherson and William Williamson w-as expected in the view of return? so far. Governor Warren Green <Rep.) j was expected to win renomihation over former Governor Carl Gun- : derson by approximately 35.000 votes. In Alabama the Roosevelt forces appeared victorious in the campaign for the state’s twenty-four votes. Roosevelt was opposed by a slate of "uninstructed” delegates who were not necessarily opposed to the New York Governor. The vote was running about 3 to 1. Meanwhile, the senatorial primary attracted great attention as Senator Hugo L. Black, senior member from Alabama, was opposed by four others. Returns early today indicated Black was in the lead safely, but did not have a sufficient majority. This will necessitate a runoff writh his nearest opponent, former Governor Thomas E. Kilby of Anniston. Hourly Temperature* *a. m 59 ID a. m 74 7 a. m 61 11 a. m 77 Ba. m.,.. 85 13 (kon>.. 78 l 9a. m.,.., 70 l p/’m,.... 80

Fear for Life of Girl, 3, Lost in Mountains R>j Lnltrd f’reit LOS ANGELES. May 4 Hope for the life of Cecilia Mitchell, 3. daughter of a rancher who wandered away from her playmates while pickling wildflowers, was seen today In the possibility she might have been picked up by a passing motorist. Forest rangers. deputy sheriffs and ranchers searched thirty-six hours for the child without finding a clew other than her little red. makeshift sled, which she was dragging when she became separated from two other children Monday noon. As darkness came, a cold storm pelted the searcher* in the high altitudes of the Tehachapis. adding to the fear that the child, if not already dead, would succumb to exposure. Wildcat*, coyotes, snakes and droves of half-starved hogs also haunt the desolate region.

Clauer Is Showing Way to 1 Sexton in Primary Race for County Treasurer on Democratic Ticket. A brand new version of the Siamese twins act. was being played today for entertainment of voters by James E. Deery, city attorney, and Earl R. Cox, in their neck-and-neck race for the Democratic circuit judge nomination, apparently the most interesting feature of the primary. Tabulation of unofficial returns from 198 precincts had Cox in front by 462 votes, with Deery steadily hanging on and making short spurts. •Baseball Billy” Clauer. on the basis of these returns, is leading the incumbent treasurer, Timothy P. Sexton, by 1,486 votes and his gain is growing steadily. Unofficial returns from 198 precincts on these judges are: Cox. 11,155; Deery. 10,693; on treasurer. Clauer. 12.128; Sexton. 10.642. Deery Given Edge The 139 precincts still out ore expected by Deery * managers to push him to the front, because they are located in wards that are known to be steadfastly “organization.” The Coffin Republican orgentza- | tion flipfiopped on two of its most important fights, the prosecutor and treasurer posts, with Judson L. i Stark. 1928-1930 Prosecutor, runS nlng two to one against John O. Lewis, the Coffin candidate, and Frank Cones apparently nosing out ! L. Lynn Logsdon, also the organization choice. Why these two went over apparently is a puzzle to the initiates, who realize that a light vote means an organization/ victory and the 1 size of the Republican ballot cast , Tuesday gave every indication that the way was greased for the "right” boys.

"Dumping” la Charged Adherents of Lewis are asserting that he was "dumped” by Coffin to curry favor with the groups opposed to’ continuation of his domination, and they point to defeat: of Larry Henderson in 1930 in a similar manner as proof of this. Nomination of the Marion county Republican ticket practically is settled certainly, although there is a tight contest on for county treasurer, according to unofficial returns from 143 of the 331 precincts in Marion county. The probable lineup will be: Circuit judge, Harry O. Chamberlin; prosecutor, Stark; sheriff, .Orel Chitwood; treasurer. Cones (by a narrow margin); surveyor, Paul R. Brown; county commissioner. Second district. R. Walter Jarvis, snd Third district, Charles W. Mann. Lloyd D. Claycombe. recognized Coffin adjunct, apparently will j head the state representative list, j while State Senator John Niblack. active anti-Coffin leader, will head : the list of senatorial nominees, with Monte Munn probably second. Although the circuit judge situa-1 tion is uncertain, it appears that the Democratic organization has put over its slate of primary candidates. 1 Herbert E. Wilson had no contest for prosecutor: Charles (Buck) j Sumner has run away with the | sheriff’s nomination; Clauer appears to be the treasurer nominee. Other probable nominees are Dr. William E. Arbuckle, incumbent, for coroner: Bruce Short, incumbent, for surveyor; Walter Boettcher for commissioner. Second district, and Dow Vorhies so rcommissioner. Third district, Jacob Weiss, continued to lead the Democratic state senate list, with seven battling for second, third and fourth places. Thomas A. Hendricks is expected to head the state representative list. Many Wets Run The Democratic primary vote this year was the heaviest in history and is expected to range between 35.000 and 40,000 while it is estimated 25,000 will be the top figure for the Republican vote. This would make the total 65,000 votes. The many wet candidates seeking nominations on the Democratic ballot together with the bitter fights resulted In the heavy ballot. An example in point is that the Second precinct of the Twelfth ward reported only twelve Republican votes. Eightv-two Democrats voted.

Climaxing the bitterest factional in Democratic circles here in twenty years, the “old guard” Democrats under former Mayor Chester R. Montgomery, crushed the city administration organization under Mayor W. R. Hinkle in Tuesday's primary. Montgomery, the political tutor of Frank Mayr Jr., secretary of state, has waged an open battle upon the state party organization under R. Earl Peters.
