IN A POLICE COURT
New York Victim of Shell
Shock Runs Into Brother by
Chance i'm st. Paul.

Spscial Dispatch to THE NEW YoRK HERALD-
ST. PAUL, Feb. s.-Confronted sud-
denly by his brother. Montana rancher.
Frank u. Durwarde. who disappeared
from his parents home. on Riverside
Drive New York, four years ago while
suffering from the effects of shell shock,
recovered his memory in the police court
here to-day. and cleared mystery which
has puzzled Eastern detectives since
1918. Durwarde lost all recollection or
his history and associates during his
sufferings from war injuries he SAID,
and since his disappearance had been
wandering over the United States, with
neither money nor friends. The police
had arrested him on a vagrancy charge.
BY a strange coincidence Frank Dur
warde came face to face with his elder
brother, o. ". Durwarde, just outside
the doors Of the police court, following
dismissal of the vagrancy charge. o.
" Durwarde, who had accompanied
shipment of cattle from his ranch to
South ST. Paul. came to police court to
pay the fine Of one OF his cowboys, VINO
partook too literally of moonshine
Wednesday night Meanwhile FRANK
Durwarde, under different name, was
before Judge Finehout on charge OF
vagrancy. There being no evidence that
he was causing trouble, the case was
dismissed. -
AS the Younger Durwarde was leaving
the court room he bumped against his
elder brother. who was just entering.
The shock restored his memory.
The rancher hurried him away to
hotel, where a physician attended MN.
Later the brothers left for New York,
after telegraphing their parents, who
now are said to live In Boston.

Increasing Enforcement Cost
Main Fact, Says Congressman.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 9@The United
States for two years has tried the ex-
pertinent of forcing prohibition upon the
people and the only appreciable devel-
opment has been the increasing cost Of
enforcement, Representative Gallivan of
Massachusetts declared. in a speech put
into the Record to-day. Representative
Gallivan, who is i'll in a hospital here,
made a general attack on Commissioner
Haynes for what he charges as lack of
enforcement.
Mr.. Gallivan, charged that Commits

$10,000,000 ito spread the doctrine of
discomfort, the doctrine of Belshevisrn of

propaganda than anything else.''

Senator Pepper said the reports were
correct. Then he asked permission to
make "a few observations"
when I became member OF this
body" he said, II assumed all questions
would bo settled on their merits and
that the Newberry case was judicial

TRACE SOVIET PLOT
IN FAMINE RELIEF
Department of Justice Agents
Fear Communists Control
Some Bodies.

WAsHrNGroN, Feb. "a full report Of
the progress being made all over the
world in the relief Of famine in Soviet
Russia has been prepared for President
Harding by Secretary Hoover. The re-
port. Secretary Hoover said to-day. in
cluded work being done in Russia by
foreign organizations as well as associa-
tions in this country.
In its discussion OF the relief organ
zatons in this country, the Secretary
said. the report covered certain associa-
tions which have been raising money
ostensibly for Russian relief. but who
are under investigation by the Justice
Department for possible connection with
the Soviet Government. According to
Director Burns of the Bureau of In
vestigation of the Justice Department,
a searching investigation of the activi-
ties Of some OF these organizations Is
being made.
President Harding Is expected to
make public Mr.. Hoover's report this
week. and pending it's publication off,
cials refused to discuss the matter. 1t
is understood, however, that both Secre-
tary Hoover and Mr.. Burns have for
some time been delving into the activi-
ties of various organizations collecting
funds in behalf of famine stricken Rus
sia. Many inquiries have come to the
Justice Department, and one angle Of
the situation said to be causing concern
Is the use of the names OF prominent
persons by these organizations in their
campaigns for funds.
Possible connection of some of the
organizations with the Soviet authori-
ties Is said to have given rise to the
belief in some quarters that a chain Of
communistic societies closely allied to
the Bolshevists was being established
over the country under the guise of
famine relief machinery.

LEAKING OIL TANK
DOOMED TRANSPORT
Capt. Lusti of Northern Pa
eific Thus Will Explain
Burning Of Ship.

WASHINGTON. Feb. s.--An investiga-
tion of the origin OF the fire which yes
terday destroyed the former army trans
port Northern Pacific Off the New Jer-
sey coast was understood to-day to have
been instituted by the Government.
Officials of the Department Of Justices
bureau of investigation. however, would
not discuss the inquiry further than to
say the bureau expects to receive a re-
port from its New York office.
Shipping Board officials said to-day
the Northern Pacific. which had re-
verted to the board at the conclusion OF
her service as a transport. had been
turned over entirely to the Admiral Line.
The Shipping Board had received the
first payment of $1.000.00o, and it was
said the insurance had been transferred
to the Admiral Line.
officials of the board said the crew
aboard the vessel at the time of the
fire was adequate. The line already had
listed cargo and passengers for voyage
after her reconditioning starting May
27 from New York to the Pacific coast
via Cuba and the canal. Following the
arrival at San Francisco she was to have
been used for special excursion to
Honolulu and return planned by mem
bers of the Mystic Shrine.
NORFOLK, Va. Feb. 9.--The fire which
destroyed the Northern Pacific yester-
day. with q reported loss of four lives
originated in leaky oil tank on a lower
deck amidships. according to officers OF
the vessel. Capt. William Lusti is
understood to have included a statement
to this effect in his official report to the
Shipping Board
The former transport was described as
roaring furnace inside when the fire
was discovered at IL :35 o'clock yester-
day morning by Second officer A. B.
Wilson.
Great difficulty was experienced In
launching the boats, Wilson said, and
after attempts to get them over on the
leeward side, 1t was found necessary to
risk getting them off on the windward
side. Splendid seamanship was shown
by the officers and men and every one OF
the twenty-eight officers and crew got
away safely. he declared.
The steamship Wylie and the Trans
| portation came up about the same time,
the former picking up Wilson's boat,
the officer said. The survivors arriv-
ing in Norfolk escaped serious injury,
although several we're singed by the
flames in launching the boats.
The Wylie stood by the burning ves-
sci until o'clock yesterday morning.
When she pulled away the Northern
Pacific was burning from bow to stern.
end her superstructure had been prac-
ticaly eaten away by the flames 1t
was considered remarkable by the sur
vivors that she remained afloat until
yesterday afternoon.

that the Warrior power plant and
transmission line could be salvaged for
S,0o0.000 or more. and declared under

Ford had offered for the nitrate plants

agreed that the properties would become

Representative Quin of Mississippi de-
clared he favored acceptance of Mr.

"You don't. do your" he asked the
witness.
Gen. Williams declined to answer. 4
Mr.. Quin then said Mr.. Ford would
keep the nitrate plants ready in case war
clouds came. and all we will have to do
is blow the whistle and everybody will
go to work."
The General said it will be necessary
to ''do a little more than blow a
whistle"
''This man. Mr.. Ford" persisted Mr..
Quin, has made a success of his busi-

fertilizer to meet the farmers needs?"
81 see no re.ation between one and the
other,' Gen. Williams answered.
Chairman Kahn received word to-
day that Mr.. Ford would not appear
before the committee but
would send proper accredited repre- senta-
tives. A telegram from Fl. G. Liebold,
secretary to Mr.. Ford. said w. B. Mayo
and ]. w. Worthington would be dele
gated to act for the manufacturer. and
1t was learned later they were re-
quested to be present at Mondays ses-
sions. Both are considered to be fully
advised on every provision of the offer.
Requests for hearings were received
from the Alabama Power Company and
the Air Nitrates Corporation, and Mr..
Kahn said their representatives would
be heard before the investigation was
concluded. Both companies hold OPP
tions, one of which, Gen. Williams said,
involved the. Government in moral obli-
cations before the Muscle Ghoals prop
critics were disposed Of to another pri-
vate enterprise.

During his reply to charges made by
Senator Glass (Va.) some time ago that
his attacks on the Federal Reserve
Board were based largely on lack of
knowledge of the facts" Senator Heflin
(Ala.)) revived che charge that the
Federal Reserve Bank of New York had
advanced to Col. William Boyce Thomp-
son OF the Republican National Commit
tee s5,o0o,000 for use in the last cam
paign.
Senator Heflin read a letter from
John SHELTON Williams, former Comp
troller OF tho Currency, stating that
the loan had been made on very flimsy
security and was in violation of the
banking laws Of the Federal Reserve
system.
Senator Glass followed Senator Hef-
Inns attack closely but only inter-
rupted him few minutes once to OBJ
serve you have not mentioned the
name OF John Shelton Williams for
one hour and twenty minutes
The Virginia Senator also charged
that Williams had written Senator Hef-
Inns speech. which the latter did not
deny. In fact. he admitted that Mr..
Williams had spent several days in his
office preparing the material for the
speech.
William Boyce Thompson, formerly a
director of the Federal Reserve Bank
Of New York, in his home in Yonkers
last night said:
Did you ever hear of any individual
borrowing from any reserve bank? 1

Hehin is the first information that I
have on the matter"
The Federal Reserve Bank of New
York declined to be drawn into the con-
troversy in any way. Bankers, how
ever. pointed out that the charge is
ridiculous. Loans by reserve banks to
individuals are expressly precluded by

:, Their Offers.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 9.-Advisa bility of
Fords offer for the lease of the Muscle
Shoals. Ala. Government owed lands
from 100 20 so years was questioned
indirectly to-day by Major-Gen. Lam
sing H. Beach, Chief Of Army En-
glneers, in testimony before the House
Military Committee. Referring to the
general policy of tLe Government not
TO lease it's properties for a period ex-
ceeding fifty years, Gen. Beach said
that at Is not always advisable to ap-
ply one general rule to things big and
small"
Secretary Weeks. who was heard by
the committee yesterday at it's opening
session. declared repeatedly that in his
opinion it would be unwise to permit the
lease of public lands or properties to
private interests for so long a period as
100 years. Gen. Beach. however. said
to-day 1t was "a question in as big and
important a matter as this whether the
fifty year rule would not work hard
ship"
II was his belief. the General con-
tinued. that in disposing of the proper
ties the paramount consideration should
be the effect upon the nations defense
rather than the manufacture of fer
tilizer. The country. he said, should not
be caught again" without an adequate
nitrate supply.
Advantages of Niagara.
The disadvantages of installing power
plants in Alabama and establishing a
market for their output were dwelt upon
of pfh 6x ta Gil VI n
said it would be comparatively easy to
install plant at Niagara Falls with a
market close by, but II was quite an
other feat. from the standpoint of time,
TO do so in a sparsely settled region like
that about Muscle Shoals. with only
four cities within reasonable distance
There is one feature of the case"
Gen. Beach said. CONNECTED with the
award TO Mr.. Ford, which think worthy
OF consideration. The Tennessee River
possesses great potential possibilities for
waterpower development. There is no
river which will furnish an equal amount
of power except perhaps the st. Law
renee.
MIR Ford has said. understand. that
he intends to complete the dams at
Muscle Shoals and make application for
other dams on the upper Tennessee and
to utilize power he can. obtain from
them. They would have great value In
restraining food waters and would be
followed by power development along
the upper Tennessee in greater amount
than you could get in any other way" =.
In conclusion Gen. Reach said he be-
lieved Henry Ford would like to stand
IN the same relation to the farmers that
John ID. Rockefeller does to the world
by the eradication of disease.
"Mr. Ford has said. understand. that
he hopes to reach point wheer he can
sell tractor. r truck and an automo-
bile all for $1,000" the witness con-
cluded.
Letters were written by several COM
panies asking If they were interested, he
said. but "NIr. Ford's offer was the only
genuine offer received"
