SPLIT LOOMS IN FARMERS RANKS Delegates to conven tion FACE INTERNAL i DISSENSION ST. PAUL, Minn., July 2 (TP).— War drums were thumped loudly to day as the convention of the Nation al Farm Holiday Association entered Its second day. Factional strife developed over a proposal to endorse Congressman William Lemke’s candidacy for pres ident in a third party group. One wing of the Farm Holiday Association favors becking Lemke’s driver. The other wing wants to turn its back on the Union party and set up a party of its own. The antl-Lemke forces propose a party which would seek to combine the forces of farm unions, trade unions and farm co-operatives. The Farm Holiday Association is headed by John Bosch. It is commit ted to a program of forcing the gov ernment to increase all farm bene fits. Bosch showed open disgust to day over the violent disputes which have broken out on the floor. He •aid: “For two bits I’d bolt this conven tion, in fact I’d do it for two cents.” BONUS IS USED RESTORE SIGHT MANCHESTER, lowa, July 2 (TP). The veteran’s bonus may bring re stored vision to Fremont Clark. He was blinded four years ago in an accident. Near the first of August, Veteran Clark will go to New York for his fourth operation, using the money paid him for war service. In the third operation, performed last April, surgeons grafted the eye ball of a living monkey in an effort to restore Clark’s vision. The experi ment was partly successful. Then his eyes clouded over again. Surgeons believe their next at tempt will spell the complete victory for whch they have fought since 1932. MELLON TO SAIL NEW YORK, July 2 (TP).—The man who once held the title of the .“greatest secretary of the treasury since Alexander Hamilton”—Andrew W. Mellon—will sail for Europe to night. Mellon, who now Is embroil ed in a tax dispute with the govern ment, will board the Cunard-White Star liner this evening for a trip to England. Contract Bridge KEEPING WIDE AWAKE MENTAL APATHY is fatal to be.-t results. Keeping wide awake some times discloses undreamed of oppor tunities. Here is a hand illustrating this point. I sat West, as declarer. Bidding went: South, 1-Heart —a call that might well have waited, to note whether or not it would pay. As a matter of fact, that call was the direct cause of dccalrer’s opportunity to obtain remarkable results; West, 3-No Trumps on a rare certainty of • fulfilling such a contract on an over call. That ended the auction. ♦97 4 2 V 10 8 2 ♦J 9 7 *6 5 4 ♦A5*lO 8 6 3 fA93 M f J 5 ♦A K Q £ U) <6542 ♦AK Q J s. *832 7 1 4KQJ VKQ764 4 10 8 3 ♦ 10 9 North would have made an open ing lead of his fourth best spade, had his partner not bid hearts. With that bid North had no excuse for making any opening lead except his 10 of hearts. Dummy’s J and South’s Q cov ered. Declarer’s Ace won. south’s opening bid marked him with the K-Q of spades, possibly with a bid dable two suiter. In case clubs prov ed to be established the chance to make 5-odd appeared posible, by tak ing the Ace of spades late in the play then giving South a spade trick. If South clung to his K of hearts and a low guard there would be two tricks over contract. Only time could ans wer that hope, as he surely would hold two high spade honors, perhaps more. In the latter case he might be given his K of hearts, forcing him to lead spades. Two high clubs were played. On the first of these South’s 9 fell fol ' lowed by his 10 on the next lead, leaving the 8 in dummy for entry. Three diamonds were run, hoping to drop opposing holdings in three tries. They dropped, leaving a long dia mond in dummy. Dummy was put In lead with its 8 of clubs. South let go a heart. He let go another heart on dummy’s god diamond. Declarer discarded his now useless low spade. The 5 of hearts was led. South took his first and only defensive trick with the K. North’s 8 fell, leaving declar er’s 9 of hearts good, with the Ace of spades for re-entry, whether Souto led a heart or a spade, declarer’s re- i malning cards all were good. At the teijth trick South led his K of spades, although he also held a heart. Probably he knew that declar er held the good 9 of hearts. What South thought Is of no real import ance. as declarer had only the good heart and the Q-J of clubs with which to win the three last tricks, giving him a most unexpected small slam, merely due to keeping wide awake. Even as powerful a holding as West was dealt rarely turns out as well against an opening bld, with an ap parently trickless dummy. "Confesses” to Help His Pal \ J < ’ ' JiMna r fl T 111 IrX AZ! L I j i 4 ' ■ > 'I ■ -' J s Hi -u- J. Norman Archambault (above) of Haverhill, Mass., “confessed” to police that he had committed the murder of Mrs. Clara E. K. Ellis in 1931, tor which his pal, Russell Nobel, is serving a life sentence. Archambault admitted his “confession” was an attempt to help his pal get a parole. MOLEY TAKES ISSUE WITH F. D. R. FORMER ‘BRAIN-TRUSTER’ DISAGREES WITH CERTAIN VIEWPOINTS OF PRESIDENT GIVEN IN ACCEPTANCE SPEECH. BOSTON, July 2 (TP)—The form er "Braintruster” Raymond Moley disagrees with certain viewpoints ex pressed by President Roosevelt in his famous “economic royalist” speech. The President, accepting re-nomina tion in Philadelphia, said some ele ments in big business have preyed on the average man setting up an unjust economic empire over which they rule. Moley was once Mr. Roosevelt’s chief adviser. He spoke today In Boston before the convention of the Advertising Federation of America. Moley referred to what he called “Prophets of Politics.” These prophets, he sadi, have a “habit of belaboring business with a big stick.” HOUSE COLLAPSE PROBE UNDER WAY BRICK-LAYERS TO GIVE TESTIMONY AT HEARING IN NEW YORK TODAY NEW YORK, July 2 (TP).-A dozen bricklayers are slated to go be fore the Bronx county grand jury to day to give their versions of the rea son for an apartment house collapse that claimed the lives of 18 work men. Union officials co-operated with prosecution authorities in seeking a cause of the catastrophe which oc curred two weeks ago. According to Assistant District Attorney Carney, the bricklayers are ready to testify that their working orders demanded too much speed. Those who took time to do their work well, the prose cutor was told, were discharged. Carney also announced thvt he has proof that improperly reconditioned second hand brick was used in the building. CRISP SIOO BILLS BRING SUSPENSION FOR COP NEW YORK, July 2 (TP).—A plainclothesman who dropped four crisp SIOO bills on a station house floor the other day is under suspen sion today. The cop is Patrolman Edward Shelubov, member of a special squad whch is given free rein of the city in tracking down gambling and vice sus pects. Asked about the S4OO which dropped out of his pocket, Shelubov said it was lent him by a relative. Subsequent investigation, according to police officials proved the patrol man recently paid a $995 cash pay ment on a house. Police Commissioner Lewis J. Val entine ordered shelubov suspended while blv.ecoats sift the activities of the patrolman and other members of his squad. They’re frank to admit they’re dubious about the loan story offered by the patrolman. Sally's Sallies II you want Io know whal a girl real' hmks of you—marry her. President Roosevelt in Philadelphia, had said he was ready for the war against the economic domination of expoiting big business concerns. Moley said today: “People are tired of battle. They were weary of war in 1866 and in 1919. They are get ting tired now of war as a figure of speech.” "People will call business men names,” Moley continued, “until the public realizes, as some of us realize, that modern business, through effi cient production, is bringing closer to the average man not only the things that he needs in his daily life, but the things that make his life more pleasant.” I U. S. NATIONAL PARKS WORKERS TO OFFER STUDY IN GEOLOGY WASHINGTON, July 2—Visitors to 1 the national parks this year find that the marking and routing of trails has been greatly simplified to give infor mation of geological phenomena, ac . cording to a recent announcement . from the National Park Service. Geologists of the park service are ! now engaged upon projects of this . type which will be executed under their supervision by CCC men in na tional and state parks in the four 1 regional districts of the Civilian Con i servation Corps. This plan involves not only the laying out of trails past the outstand ’ phenomena in the area, but that J trail-side exhibits and markers will . be Installed in order to illustrate their . origin meaning, and utilization. Geologists say that the national parks and monuments present the . whole history of this planet. Some [ of the finest examples of the tech , nique of world-building are to be found in such reservations as Grand Canyon, Carlsbad Caverns, Yosemite and Yellowstone National Parks. In the East, Acadia National Park, Maine, the newly created Shenan doah National Park, and the Great Smoky Mountains. SHELTERS ERECTED ON MOUNT OLYMPUS MONUMENT TRAILS LONGMIRE Mount Ranier Na tional Park, July 2—The traveler who likes to sling a pack on his back and strike out across mountain trails will find a much improved system this year in the area of the Mount Olym pus National Monument In the heart of the Olympic Peninsula. Here four new trailside shelters have been added and new overnight protections have been placed at Elwah- Quinault Divide Home Sweet Home Creek, Hayes River and Honeymoon Meadows. A fifth new shelter at Elk Lake is under construction. The trails in the monument are in much better condition this year than in 1935. Lighter snowfall result ed in les down timber and fewer slides across the foot and saddle horse routes. • Os the several, short, new and re constructed trails built last summer, the 2 1-2 mile link that crossed Hay den Pass, in the east-central part of the area, is most important to moun taineers. By using the new trail, sad dle and pack horses were taken from the Hood Canal side of the monument through part of the area to the north or south boundaries last week, a month earlier than by the old route.

Morgan was brought to his Glen Cove estate aboard a special car aft er he was stricken with neuritis while visiting his sister-in-law, Mrs. Ste phen Van R. Crosby, at West Man chester, Mass. Although he was lifted on and off the trr.in, and carried to his home in an ambulance, his two sons, Junius and Henry Morgan emphatically de nied the rumor that their father had been stricken with paralysis but was suffering from neuritis. Doctors at tending the 60 year-old financier said the neuriits was painful but not dan gerous. Wall Street accepted the lack of official bulletins to mean that Mor gan was on the mend. If he were seriously ill, they inferred, his im portance in the banking world would require regular statements regarding his condition.

(Central Press} ‘OH, SUSANNA’ HAS A RIVAL HERBIE’ HOOVER IS TAKEN FOR ‘RIDE’ IN DITTY; LAN DON AND HEARST ALSO RAPPED. PHILADELPHIA, July 2.—Poetic competition of the convention kind will be meted out of the Republic ans who converted “Oh Susanna” into a campaign song for Governor Alf M. Landon. The Democratic muse has not been less active. The Democrats now have a rousing ditty that is slated to be the piece de resistance of the Dem ocratic ntaional convention’s “close (if any) harmony.” It’s called "Why We Are Voting for Roosevelt.” Here are a couple of verses: Herbie Hoover promised us two chick ens in each pot. Breadlines and depression were the only things we got. I lost my job, my bank blew up and I was on the spot. That’s why I’m voting for Roosevelt. Hooray, hooray, Herb Hoover's gone away.

OFFICER IN HIGHWAY WORTH TWO IN BUSH, AUTO CLUB ASSERTS PHILADELPHIA, July 2.—A high way patrolman on the road is worth two in the bush, according to offi cials of the Keystone Automobile club. Protesting against the "antiquated and unfair” practice of stationing of ficers in hidden nooks at the side of the road to take the numbers of pass ing speedsters, they point to the valu able preventive influence of the same officers when they are visibly oc cupied in patroling the roads. The club has received a very large number of complaints from mem bers who have received summonses by mail from small towns through which some days before, they had passed above the posted limit of 20 or 25 mlies an hour. The charge has usu ally been "reckless driving.” While reminding its members that the 20-mile speed-liimt signs are erected for their own safety and the safety of others, and that the best way to avoid trouble is to observe those warnings, the clu'. is urging po lice officials to work for safety along preventive more than punitive lines. “The Vehicle Code makes a very definite distinction between exceeding the speed limit and rckless driving,” sad Harrson G. Kildare, counsel for the club, n a recent statement. “The motorist whose only offense isdriv ing 25 miles an hour in a 20-mile zone has a perfect right to complain against beng summoned as a reckless drver. In cases brought to our atten tion, drivers claimed to have proceed ed in orderly line through the num ber towns, only to gte, a wek or so later, a summons by registered mail ! accusing them of recklessness.” N. E. A. PLANS DRIVE AS AID TO TEACHERS PORTLAND, Oregon, July 2 (TP).

A. is meeting in conven tion at Portland. It’s resolutions committee recommended federal grants of from $100,000,000 to $300,- 000.000 a year to schools. The com mittee report also struck out at what It termed academic restrictions placed on teachers. Hooray, hooray, I hope he’s gone to stay. For now I’m back to work and get my three squares every day. That's why I'm voting for Roosevelt. They tell us Mr. Landon is a very clever gent. He kids them out in Kansas though he never spends a cent. But Willie Hearst and Standard Oil are coughing up his rent. That’s why I’m voting for Roosevelt, before. Hooray, hooray, they fooled m? once Hooray, hooray, and I was feeling sore. No GOP can hoodwink me, as In the days of yore. That’s why I'm voting for Roosevelt. Wall street sure is kicking for they know they’re on the pan. Franklin D. in Washington upset their little pan. And now the one on top is that poor once forgotten man, That’s why we re voting for Roose velt. Hooray, hooray he banished all our fear. Hooray, hooray, our banks are in the clear. He brought us back prosperity and gave us back our beer. That's why we’re voting for Roosevelt. ROGERS ]_.
