himself in his posture OF death

Neighbors who saw him taking

The body was covered only with

hung horizontally by means of wire

SEN. WATSON
EAYS FEDERAL
RESERVE BOARD
'sFirebrond" of Geor.
gid Wants Members
"Fired." +"

| Washington, July -Unitec
Press.)-"Big Chief" Tom Watson
of Georgia started on the warpatt
today. With a grim smile as wal
paint and a keen edged rhetorical
tomahawk he is after the scalp OF
the federal reserve board.
Since the advent of the Georgia
firebrand in the senate his col
leagues have expectantly awaited
the outbreak" of the chief, as his
clerks call him with affectionate
Difference.
The war cry" of the Chief
was a resolution couched in the
bitterest denunciatory terms di-
recting President Harding to fire
the present members of the board
and replace them with men of af-
fairs" who are not to be servants
of Morgan, Standard Oil, packers
and other legalized marauders".
"Camps on Trail"
I'm going to camp on their trail
like hungry coyote after corpu-
lent jack rabbit declared the
Chief. And the coyote usually
gets his meat"
The Chief" was in his 'tepee''
sharpening his weapons and sort
ing a great mass of data relating
to the federal reserve board, pre-
pairing for his first attack, when
found by the correspondent of the
United Press. He is typical of the
ante-bellum south. Erect: immac-
ulate in his tropical suit, billed .
shirt and black string bow tie, he
gives visitor courtly bow and a
hearty handclasp.
1.-The criminal and arbitrary de-
f1ation of the currency by the re-
serve board" Senator Watson de-
clared, has cost the American peo-
pie the amount OF the German in
demnity-$32, ZOO, 100000.
Worse Than Lusitania.
"The INSCRIPTIONS bunch of
scoundrels who compose the board
have caused 10000 business failures,
Vulnerable heartaches among for
merly prosperous people, and the
suicide of hundreds of citizens
who have been reduced to des-
peration by the Infamous policy of
the board.
"They have done to America what
German U-boats tried but failed to
do-to sink the nation into the
abysmal degradation of an auto
Gratis subjugation. The atrocious
sinking of the Lusitania and the
cold -blooded murder of 119 Ameri-
cans was no worse in moral turp-
titude than has been the criminal
policy of the board.
'Thes outcome, there can be but
one-to get rid of the board. 1
have dedicated myself to that |
purpose"
