The record-breaking chari-

NJ versary of the passage by the Vir-
ginia house of burgesses on
May 80. 1765, of Patrick Henry's famous
resolution condemning the British
stamp act was celebrated as Patrick
Henry day at the Jamestown exposition
today. William j. Bryan was the cen
tral figure of attraction.
Mr.. Bryan dwelt upon American rule
the convention hall of the exposition
grounds before 1000 people upon the
theme Taxation Without Represents
tion Is Tyranny"
The exercises opened with the sing
ing of 1.-THE Star Spangled Banner" by
chorus of $50 school children, fol-
lowed by an address by President
Tucker of the exposition company upon
the career of Patrick Henry.
Following a reading of the original
stamp act resolution Dr. Philip Fitz
hugh of New York, great-grandson Of
Patrick Henry, was introduced. The
audience arose and cheered Henry's
venerable descendant.
The singing of yankee Doodle" by
the children was followed by "Dixie,
which brought great applause.
| Mr.. Bryan dyelt upon American rule
| in the Philippines, declaring that we
were making laws for the government
of Filipinos under which we would not

can rule of the Philippines to the Brit.

Revolutionary war. He said that while
he had frequently said in the north
that the black man was taxed In the
south without representation, he had
likewise said that the white men OF
the south are themselves living un-
der the same laws which they made to
affect the negro.
On Federal Ownership
The speaker discussed federal owner
ship of railroads, but said after all he
wondered if more was not to be gained
for the people by discussing and i1ght-
ing the corporations.
Continuing, Mr.. Bryan said:
"What is the effect of our new rate
law which was so hard to get? There
are two effects so far. One is it stonr>a1
rebates; that is good, but wha Nas
the pecuniary effect? Why, the r3ii-
