JOHNSON DECLARED
 MAN IF THE HOUR
 BY IDAHO SENATOR
TRepublican A. p. Leased Wirel

BALTIMORE, May Limited States Senator Borah, of Idaho, tonight brought the Johnson primary campaign in Maryland to an end in a vigorous speech before a large audience. Speak ing as Senator Johnson's colleague and friend in the senate, Senator Borah de- clared him to be the man of the hour
 Senator Borah said:
 '''The first task that will confront the incoming president will be to restore the American republic to the American people and to eliminate all the purely arbitrary measures enacted for carry ing on the war.
 Senator Johnson is the only candi- date seeking the republican nomination who has defined his position on the league of nations so that all may know it.''
 After attacking the peace settlement and telling of problems confronting the nation, he added:
 q believe Senator Johnson is the man best fitted to take up these tasks. Behind him is his record. He restored California to the people.
 "We have reached a time when the republican candidate for president must be a man acknowledged states manship. In these critical days the occasion calls for a man of courage, character and force-a man of wide sympathies, trusted by labor. as well as by capital, but able to with stand ex- cessive demands on the part of either. Such man is Hiram w. Johnson"

8 DREADNAUGHTS'
 HEAD RETURNING ATLANTIC FLEET
Three Score Ships Drop
 Anchor in Hudson River
 After Months of Drills and Maneuvers in Cuban Waters-Work Has Been Success, Says Commander
rRepubiican A. p. Leased Wirel


 NEW YORK. May 1.-Headed by the flagship Pennsylvania, with the broad blue flag of the secretary of the navy flying at the main masthead, nearly three score ships of the Atlantic fleet dropped anchor in the Hudson river today, home from three months of drills and maneuvers in Cuban waters.
 Eight great super per-dreadnaughts and a swarm of swift destroyers rode sleepily at their moorings tonight, fairly filling the river anchorage for miles; but more than half of the off cers and of the sun- n-burned youngsters of the crews were ashore enjoying AS hours of we'll earned liberty.
 When the fleet steamed past Am prose light, early in the morning the Pennsylvania carried the three highest officials of the naval service. Besides Secretary Daniels, who boarded the ship off the Virginia capes yesterday morning for the last lap of the home ward cruise, Admiral Coontz, chief of naval operations, was a guest of Ad- miral Wilson, commanding the Allan tic fleet and senior sea commander Of the navy. MT. Daniels and Admiral Coontz stood with Admiral Wilson on the flag bridge as the great sea force made its stately progress through the crowded harbor and river to its an- chorage.
 On the way up the harbor Mir. Dan iels spoke by radio telephone to a crowd gathered in Times square, where amplifiers had been set up. At first constant interference by amateur wireless operators broke up the novel greeting from fleet to city, but ulti- mately navy radio experts made good their promise and the secretary's words were plainly audible in the square, while he was still on the nov ing ship down the river.
 In statement regarding the work of the fleet during the winter, Admiral had been accomplished.
 'OfficerS and men," he said, Were confronted with many difficulties not portion of the crews were compara- lively untrained, and to carry on the work of the ships and the fleet and to train these men brought an excessive amount of work upon the officers and the older men.
 Tt is with pride that the command erin- chief looks upon the results ob- tained by the earnest. conscientious efforts of these officers and older men, as well as upon the spirit with which the new men have entered into their duties.
 The target practice was, in most respects, all that could be expected un der these conditions. The steaming trials have resulted in steady improve ment in the ability of the ships to steam"

POL|CE UNABLE
 TO FIND GRAVE
 OF HU|RT'S $ WIFE
lRepubIican A. p. Leased wire1

LOS ANGELES, May 1.-Walter Hurt, alias Walter Andrew Watson, who is alleged to have married a score Of women and confessed that four of them died violent deaths, protested to officers today that he had told them the truth as to the location of the grave of Nina Lee Deloney, with whose mur- der he is formally charged
 T hope you will believe me-" he pro- tested to officers who have been searching in vain for the grave in a desolate portion of eastern San Diego county. "If were stronger could go to the place with my eyes shut he added
 Watson then told the officers of three trips to the grave made after he slayed the woman with a hammer on the first day of their honeymoon trip, accord ing to an alleged confession made Thursday night
 The first, he said, was to bury the oody, which, he declared, he stripped of all clothing.
 The second, he stated, was to burn the clothing, a precaution he said he had forgotten on the first trip, so eager was he then to leave the spot.
 The third, he added, was to make certain he had obliterated all signs of the grave and of the ashes of the cloth ing. When this additional data had been obtained officials arranged to take Watson to the eastern part of San Diego county. near the Lower Cali fornia line. the latter part of next week, so that he could locate the grave.
 Physicians at the county hospital where Watson is under guard and held practically incommunicado, said they thought he would be sufficiently re- covered from two attempts at suicide to make the trip by the time planned.

Republican A. p. Leased WIrel

NEW YORK, May 1.-Cabinet off cers, presidential aspirants of the re- publican and democratic parties and men prominent in the affairs of the nation, state and city, tonight attended the 18th annual dinner of the New York Press club.
 Secretary of State Colby, Secretary of the Navy Daniels. Senator Robert l.. Owen of Oklahoma, and Gov. Edwards of New Jersey made addresses.
 Herbert Hoover and James w. Ger ard were among the guests.
 The weakness of the American gov ernment is too much statute law, too little enforcement and too many off cials, declared Senator Owen of Okla hona, candidate for the democratic presidential nomination. After urging repeal of the war statutes, especially of the espionage and Sedition acts, and declaring for ratification of the peace treaty with '.such reasonable reserva- tion," the speaker continued:
 'sThe one overwhelming domestic problem is to abate the abuses of pri- vate monopoly and profiteering. The cost of living must be lowered by in creasing production and distribution by stimulating both capital and labor to honest efforts"
 
 ing from the viawpoint of a newspaper man, pointed out the differences be- tween what he termed good and bad news. MT. Daniels said:
 There is no news when the 100000 officers and men of the navy are study ing and training and hitting the target in southern waters in spite of reduced but there is sensation if one vain ad- miral lets loose an unfounded assault upon the navy
 Secretary of State Bainbridge Colby, another speaker. made a defense of President Wilson. He declared that the great issues of the war are still unde- termined so far we are concerned, and that it is hardly an exaggeration to say that there is not an aspect of the postwar situation that is not ap- preached, discussed and treated pri- marily in it's bearing upon somebody's Of one thing evidence abounds on every side, and that is the utter failure of the envenomed and impassioned attack upon the presi- dent"
 Former Ambassador Gerard, called upon to speak, said:
 "I had a candidate and his name with .H." MT Gerard was looking directly at a table at which sat Herbert Hoover. The remark was greeted with applause and when it had subsided MT. Gerard continued:
 II am glad you like him. He ran out from us and herded himself with Before he is through he will feel more comfortable if he were seated up here between Secretary Colby and Secretary Daniels and near my self"
 An appeal to the Press club, trans mitted through Herbert Hoover, from the destitute Journalists of Vienna, was read. MT. Hoover was assured that the Press club will do all in it's power toward their relief. Gov. Edwards de- clared he was conscious he was a guest, because the members of the club wished to see what manner of man the gov srnor of New Jersey is.'
 "The fact may seem strange to you" 1e added, Gas it is to me, that merely standing for the declaration of inde- oendence and the constitution of the United States may have made DO. iticaI curiosity"

ADVOCATE HIGHER.
 RATES. DECREASE IN PAPER SIZES
rRepubIican A. p. Leased Wirel

l.
 WASHINGTON, May Five and even ten cent daily newspapers were predicted today by Frank A. MunSey, New York publisher. Appearing be- fore the senate committee investigat- ing the newsprint paper shortage, he urged drastic reduction in the use Of newsprint and governmental regula- ton both of the paper and the wood pulp sources.
 William Randolph Hearst, New York publisher, in letter to the committee, advocated 20 or 25 per cent cut in the size of newspapers, but said he believed the time for governmental regulation had passed. MT. Hearst urged that publishers double both ad vertising and circulation rates, saying such action would automatically cut down the size and number of copies without reducing revenue.
 The government could not reduce newsprint consumption by regulating the number of pages of papers ad mitted to the mails, MT. Munsey told the committee, because scarcely none of the large city dailies rely for their revenue on mail circulation.
 Both publishers agreed that the great Sunday editions of the city pa pers weer important factors in the situation. Mir. Munsey advocated reg ulatinf limiting the Sunday edition to the size of the week day issue, mot more than 24 pages"
 MT. Hearst wrote that he had cut the size of his papers 20 and 25 per cent, without adversely affecting his revenue or causing complaint from subscribers.
 Chairman Reed announced that a number of paper brokers would ap- pear before the committee Monday. He read a telegram from T. R. Williams, Pittsburg, president of the American newspaper publishers association say ing he would not appear before the committee in his official capacity be- cause the association had decided to to take no part in the congressional investigation.

 PARIS MAY DAY
Call for General Tie-Up Fails to Materialize - Three Killed in Paris Street Riots - Two Depu- ties Clash with Police
Republican A. p. Leased wIreI

Republican A. p. Leased Wlrel PARIS, May f.-May day passed
 with a series of small riots and
 disorders in which at least three
 persons were killed, one of them
 woman, and many wounded, but
 without the declaration of na-
 tion-wide general strike, which the
 union workers expected from the
 general federation of labor.
 The federation issued a. 1,5oo word statement urging standardization but not referring either to a continuation of the strike or a return to work after May day. The situation this evening remained as muddled as 1t has for the past ten days, the labor element awaiting orders which do not come.
 The railroaders announced that their strike, which is to be continued after today to enforce standardization. is already 50 per cent effective. Official reports from government sources say that the operations today were not far from normal on certain lines, the most important trains moving in and out re Paris. A limited suburban service was maintained
 Twenty seven police were wounded, three of them seriously, and many of them were bruised.
 Madame Le Gros was wounded by bullet as she watched the manifesto ton from a window in the Place de Ia Republique and died later.
 More than 100 persons were arrested. and the number is growing, but many were quickly released.
 The coolness and bravery of high school and technical students. who volunteered to run motor omnibuSes, occaSioned much applause but their eff forts in breaking up the transporta- ton strike were the primary cause of most of the disorders. In the Place de la Republique they at times drove through hostile crowds who showered them with stones and broke the win dows of the buses. but they continued the service. which was organized at the instance of the government.
 Deputies Wounded
 Two members of the chamber of deputies, NJ. Valiant Courturier whose prosecution is sought by the govern ment for alleged indictment of the military to disobedience; and Alex ander Blanc, wearing a deputy tri- color sash and a flaming red tie, were wounded is collision with the police in the Place de Ia Republique. They addressed a crowd which was shout n: Glass of 191s," in connection with the agitation for the demobilization of that class. The deputies harangues were so phrased in appealing for quiet that the crowd became greatly excited and a clash with the republican guards and police followed. M. Blanc received a gash on the head. said to have been from a saber: NJ. Vaillant-Courturier come off with a tap of a night stick on the head and a damaged nose.
 A majority of the crowds seemed mainly occupied in amusing them selves by annoying the police, without risking getting into trouble.
 When the night services on the northern and eastern railroads began at 10 o'clock it was found that all the employees were at their posts. indo eating that the railroad strike will have failed by Sunday or Monday.
