NEW YORK, Nov. 22 (U.P.).— Charles: P. Wehrheim, who came here from Puerto Rico to stand trial for violation of the migratory bird law, had paid $5 in Brooklyn Federal Court today for shooting at a

duck that got away. He pleaded guilty to firing at a duck—and missing—at 6:50- a. m. on Nov, 5, 1937. The law prohibits hunting in season before 7 a. m. Wehrheim, a forester employed by the U. S. Department of Agriculture,

: have as much to say about who is - nominated as he did in 1932, the year he switched his delegates to . give Mr. Roosevelt the nomination. The 70 years on which John Gar- ' ner looks back have marked a "career closely tied to home soil and “home things. The old board shack with tar-paper roof in which he set up housekeeping when he married Mariette Rheiner 43 years ago still stands on’ his estate, “Fair Oaks.” Mr. Garner never is happier than when among the people he knew when he was young and Texas was almost frontier country.

Frail As Youth

The rugged and ruddy John Garner of the 70th birthday belies the rather frail youth who was born in a mud-chinked log cabin near Clarksville, Nov. 22, 1868. Working at farm chores and walking to school,. clerking in a general store at 16, failed to. develop a * strong physique. By the time he “had ‘saved enough to enter Vanderbilt University to study law, a doctor predicted: “That boy won't live to use an education if he gets it.” Frail health continued until he had patched together a lawyer's education at college and by reading with lawyers. For reasons of health as well. as of opportunity "he moved to Uvalde, and began : practice in 1890. The frontier lawyer of that day :had to be a cautious and shrewd business man as well. Mr. Garner was. In less than five years he was prosperous, a leading citizen ‘as lawyer, rancher, trader and editor of a local paper. ‘ They tell a2 story in Uvalde that ‘Mr. Garner was opposed in his first campaign for public office, a judgeship, by the woman who was to become his wife and secretary. Tie -team has beén consistently successful. In 1898 the young judge was chosen for the Legislature.

WOMAN TENOR DIES AT 48 IN HOLLYWOOD

HOLLYWOOD, Nov, 22 (U. P.).— One of the world’s few women tenors, Ruby Helder of England, was dead today. night after a long illness. She was 48. Miss Helder’s unusual voice was popular in radio and on the Eng-

lish concert stage for more than 10 vears before her retirement in 1935. She was one of the British Broad-

BUG IN EAR 26 YEARS HOPKINSVILLE, Ky. Nov. 22 (U, P).—Somebody literally must have put a bug in Mrs. Lizzie Met-

When large-scale business came to Texas, Mr. Garner was one of those who sought Government control of it in the interest of general welfare. But always conservatively, always advocating the middle way and the compromise, rather than the extremes. He was in those years "rated a progressive, impatient of red tape. To Congress in 1901

. His business affairs flourished, banking and ranching being added to a steadily increasing law practice. In 1901 he was sent to Congress by. the 15th District, which continued. to send him back again and again for 30 years. His service in Congress was marked by ability to make friends with those on both . side of any question, and to do energetic work almost entirely without speaking on the floor. Slowly he came to wield a tremendous in-

© | fluence among fellow Congressmen.

This influence has broadened, < rather than narrowed, since Mr. Garner became Vice President in 1932. That he has been unsympathetic to many of the New Deal programs is no secret. The reason is ‘easy to find in the acceptance speech he made in 1932: | “There are just two things to this Government, as I see it. The first is to safeguard the lives and properties of our people. The second is to insure that each of us has a chance to work out his destiny according to his talents. This involves protecting him from being injured or oppressed by those of superior ac-

quisitiveness, and perhaps less con-|
